Chapter 88 "That's because a phoenix once had its wings broken and fell into the mountains, which gave birth to a genius."
It is undeniable that the director does have a kind heart and wants to help the children in the mountains, but it's a pity...
In the parallel universe where Ke Yifei retired from the entertainment industry, the program was eventually taken off the air due to the incident involving Ke Yifei, Hu Zi, and Xie Lingyun.
There were even many netizens who attacked the director, saying that if he had not chosen Jiupan Village as the location for filming this program, the director would have been in trouble.
They wouldn't know there was such a person as Hu Zi, and then what happened afterwards wouldn't have happened.
Song Zhining didn’t know what the ending of Director Zhang Lin was in that parallel universe, but it wasn’t that good at all.
"Classmates, I'm one of your new teachers this week. My name is Shen Xingyi, and you can call me Teacher Shen. I'll teach you math. Okay, now, please stand up one by one, introduce yourselves to Teacher Shen, and then tell us your wishes, okay?"
Shen Xingyi's words interrupted Song Zhining's thoughts. She looked at Shen Xingyi on the stage, and then followed her gaze into the classroom.
Then his eyes fell accurately on a 10-year-old boy.
The boy sat upright, his body clean and tidy, his two hands folded on the table, his eyes looking straight ahead, very seriously.
He has good features and his skin is not as dark as the other kids here.
So most people can take a liking to this boy at first sight.
Soon, it was the boy's turn to introduce himself.
"Hello, Teacher Shen. My name is Li Hu. My grandparents and dad all call me Hu Zi. You can also call me Hu Zi, teacher... My wish is to study hard and become a useful person who can help others."
Hu Zi.
Song Zhining, who had experienced the situation firsthand, recognized him immediately.
A very simple wish.
Unfortunately, he did not study hard or help others to become a useful person.
At first glance, this child looks sincere, simple, and good-looking, which makes people like him immediately.
But if you look closely, there is an air of hypocrisy about this child, and everything about him seems fake.
After the children introduced themselves, Shen Xingyi began the class.
After Shen Xingyi finishes a class, there is a break, and then it is Ke Yifei's turn to teach.
Shen Xingyi and Song Zhining had no plans to leave and planned to stay and watch Ke Yifei attend class.
Shen Xingyi stayed because he liked Ke Yifei, and Song Zhining naturally wanted to see if Ke Yifei would still be fooled by Hu Zi.
So, the two of them sat at the back of the classroom. Not long after, Ke Yifei came in with a textbook. He taught the children Chinese.
…
On that day, there were 5 classes and all 5 guests attended one class.
Then it was the turn of the five guests to choose which child's home they would live in.
In fact, if you choose to live in the home of a child, there is a high probability that you will sponsor that child later.
Among them, three guests chose Hu Zi. When Song Zhining saw that one of them was Ke Yifei, she was not surprised at all.
"Surprisingly, three of you chose to live in Hu Zi's house. Can you all tell me why you chose Hu Zi?" asked director Zhang Lin.
"I feel like I get along well with Hu Zi. He's a kind, lively and simple kid."
"During class, Hu Zi is the most serious student. He is a child who loves to learn."
When it was Ke Yifei's turn, his words were different.
"I asked a former teacher here, and he said Hu Zi is the smartest student here. I even gave him some Olympiad math problems, which he had never encountered before, but he solved them all. I think he's no worse than the kids in the city, and he could even be called a genius. So, I want to sponsor him, live in his home, and observe him."
"If he is truly a genius, I can sponsor his studies. After he finishes his studies, he can give back to society. That is what I hope to see most."
Ke Yifei's straightforward words left the other two speechless for an instant.
In fact, they also know that Hu Zi is smart and knows that whoever he chooses to live in is most likely the one he will support.
They also wanted to sponsor Hu Zi. Instead of sponsoring those with average talents, it would be better to sponsor a genius. In this way, if Hu Zi achieved something in the future, they would also be proud.
As for others, the possibility of achieving results in the future is too low.
However, they thought so in their hearts but did not say it out loud.
But I didn't expect that Ke Yifei would say it so bluntly.
This made them not know how to refute for a moment.
In the end, the director decided that Ke Yifei would live in Hu Zi's house, and the other two guests chose two other students.
Shen Xingyi chose a girl from the same village as Hu Zi.
"Why didn't you choose Hu Zi, but chose the girl named Hua Hua?" Song Zhining asked.
Shen Xingyi blinked and said in a clear voice, "I didn't think much about it. I just thought that girls always have a harder time than boys, so I wanted to give them more help."
As he spoke, Shen Xingyi leaned close to Song Zhining's ear and whispered, "Among the 23 children, there are only 5 girls. In fact, I plan to sponsor all 5 girls in the end."
After saying that, Shen Xingyi looked at Song Zhining with bright eyes, like a child longing for praise.
Song Zhining was at a loss for words. Shen Xingyi was obviously older than her, but after getting to know him, he seemed more like her twin brother.
At this moment, her heart softened unconsciously.
"Yeah, sure. I support you."
"What are you whispering about?" At this time, Ke Yifei walked over. After this period of contact, Ke Yifei, who is approachable by nature, got along well with both Shen Xingyi and his assistant Song Zhining.
Especially last time in Dalian Village, Song Zhining helped Ke Yifei.
Song Zhining looked at Ke Yifei, whose eyes were filled with joy, and asked, "Teacher Ke, do you really like that kid named Hu Zi?"
"Yes, I really like it and appreciate it." Ke Yifei answered without hesitation.
Song Zhining: ...
It's a pity that the child you like and admire ends up stabbing you in the back.
"Teacher Ke, how can Hu Zi, a kid from the mountains, be a genius?" Song Zhining asked again.
As soon as these words came out, Ke Yifei frowned, "Assistant Song, are you saying that there can't be geniuses in the mountains? Your idea is wrong."
He criticized Song Zhining with a serious expression, thinking that Song Zhining looked down on children from the mountains.
Song Zhining shook her head. "No, I just heard this saying—"
“Why do geniuses emerge from the mountains?”
"That's because a phoenix once had its wings broken and landed in the mountains, giving birth to a genius."
