Mu Jingran's words made Sun Yuqi a little puzzled. Then she seemed to remember something and opened her eyes wide, asking in disbelief.
"Did your city bureau chief ask that?"
Mu Jingran smiled and shook his head, saying as he washed his hands.
"That's not the case, but I heard that the director of the Municipal Bureau is extremely protective of his nephew. His nephew has done a lot of bad things in the past, but this time he actually came to our branch office in person to deal with his nephew. If this isn't the reason, what else could it be?"
Sun Yuqi agreed after hearing this. "What you said is indeed possible, but it's hard to say for sure. Qiao Jinsong, our classmate, is very low-key. He usually seems like a good guy and has a good relationship with everyone."
"Also, I asked Qiao Jinsong today if he had a conflict with anyone, which led to today's trouble, but he said he hadn't offended anyone recently. I really don't know much about his family situation."
The two sat at the table, eating and chatting. After eating and washing up, they saw that it was getting late, so they hurried to bed.
The next day when Sun Yuqi arrived at school, she found that many of her classmates were looking at her curiously, which made Sun Yuqi frown.
When she arrived at the office, her colleagues looked at her with surprise, which made Sun Yuqi a little depressed.
"Teachers, why are you looking at me like this?"
The teachers looked at each other, and finally Teacher Zhang asked with a smile.
"Teacher Sun, do you know martial arts?"
Hearing Teacher Zhang ask this, Sun Yuqi remembered that when she saved Qiao Jinsong yesterday, that brat Shen Quan saw it. It seemed that she forgot to tell that kid to keep his mouth shut because she was in a hurry to go home yesterday. Now, the whole school knows that she knows martial arts.
Thinking of this, Sun Yuqi smiled shyly.
"I know a little bit. When I was a kid, I learned a few moves from a retired soldier near my home. It was just for self-defense, nothing to mention."
"Haha, really, that's great, Yuqi. Xirou and I both wanted to ask you. If possible, we both want to learn some self-defense martial arts. Can you teach us?"
Hearing this crisp voice, Sun Yuqi knew it was Zhou Lili and Han Xirou. She turned around and looked at Zhou Lili and Han Xirou who walked in.
"Sure. If you want to learn, come to my house once a week. I'll teach you some basic moves. You'll be able to fight one or two strong men."
After hearing Sun Yuqi say this, a female teacher named Zou Min in the same office also looked at Sun Yuqi and said that she wanted to learn.
Sun Yuqi agreed to all of them. After all, teaching one is the same as teaching three.
"But let's make it clear first. We'll go to my grandfather's place. My place is too small to accommodate activities."
Zhou Lili nodded.
"That's for sure. We've all been to your grandfather's house before, so we'll just go there together when the time comes."
The matter was settled and everyone returned to their desks to get busy. However, Sun Yuqi couldn't sit down. She had to go to her class. First, to see how Qiao Jinsong was doing, and second, to urge the students to read early in the morning. This is something that every class teacher needs to do. Speaking of which, the class teacher's salary is higher than that of other teachers, but the workload is also heavy.
When I arrived at the classroom, I saw a circle of white cloth on Qiao Jinsong's head, but he looked in good spirits.
"Qiao Jinsong, how are you feeling today? Do you have a headache?"
Qiao Jinsong smiled.
"Thank you, Teacher Sun, for your concern. I feel much better now. I was in pain last night, but it's not so painful when I woke up this morning."
Hearing Qiao Jinsong say that he was much better, Sun Yuqi nodded.
"Well, it's good that it doesn't hurt anymore. What do your family say about this?"
Qiao Jinsong hesitated for a moment, looked around, and Sun Yuqi said with a smile.
"Come out with me."
After saying that, he turned and walked out of the classroom and came to the corner of the corridor.
"Speak!"
Qiao Jinsong lowered his head as if thinking about what to say, and spoke after a long while.
"My mom's last name is Qiao, and my dad... I'm just his illegitimate child, never seen in public. I don't know why he found out I was beaten this time, but he stood up for me. This is the first time in his life!"
After Qiao Jinsong finished speaking, a hint of sarcasm appeared on his face. "Teacher, I'm going back to the classroom."
Sun Yuqi nodded.
"Go ahead, don't overthink it. Your background doesn't determine your future."
Qiao Jinsong looked at Sun Yuqi in surprise, then nodded and left back to the classroom.
When Sun Yuqi heard Qiao Jinsong say that his mother's surname was Qiao, she knew that he took his mother's surname, so she guessed a little bit. She didn't expect that she actually guessed 80% or 90%.
After listening to what Qiao Jinsong said just now, I know that his so-called father probably didn't care about him before, but now he is standing up for him. No wonder the director of the Municipal Bureau personally supervised this case and no longer dared to cover up for his nephew.
After understanding the matter clearly, Sun Yuqi didn't think about it anymore. This was not a matter she could interfere with. Besides, she didn't have the ability to do so, right?
Time slowly came to mid-June, and the school was about to be on vacation. Sun Yuqi had been working for a whole school year.
The next semester is about to start, and my class will be the second year of high school.
As soon as I walked to the office door after school, I met Zhou Lili and the other two. The three of them have been learning some self-defense martial arts from Sun Yuqi in the past few months. Every Saturday afternoon after school, they go to Grandpa Chen's place and study for an hour before going home.
As soon as they arrived at Grandpa Chen's house on their bicycles, they met Lin Muran and Lu Yao.
"How could you two busy people bother to come and see me?"
Lin Muren said with a smile.
"It's Lu Yao. She said she hasn't eaten Grandpa Chen's cooking in a while and she's craving it, so we came."
Lu Yao, who was standing by, was unhappy when she heard this.
"Mu Ran, you sound like you don't like it. Wait a minute, don't eat it. I've eaten it all."
Sun Yuqi smiled. "Alright, let's all go in!"
Zhou Lili and the others had also become familiar with Lin Muren, so they greeted him and entered the yard.
When they entered the yard, they saw a middle-aged man in his forties sitting in the yard. He looked like a high-ranking government official and had an extraordinary demeanor. Sun Yuqi didn't know him, so she looked at her grandfather.
Grandpa Chen said with a smile.
"Yuqi is back. Come, let me introduce you. This guy's surname is Xue. He's my cousin. I haven't seen him for many years. I just got in touch with him not long ago. He came to see me today."
After hearing her grandfather's introduction, Sun Yuqi shouted towards the middle-aged man.
"Uncle."
The middle-aged man was very kind and looked at Sun Yuqi and said.
"Girl, are you twenty-three this year?"
Sun Yuqi didn't know what he meant by the question, but there was no need to hide her age, so she nodded.
