Chen Ru held back her harsh words for a long time. Wen Ying had many years of experience in fighting with her parents. When she saw that something was wrong, she covered her mouth and yawned loudly:
"Oh, I'm so tired today. I'm going to bed first, otherwise I won't have the energy for the make-up classes tomorrow. You guys should also go to bed early and don't stay up late!"
Wen Ying ran into the room.
"Lao Wen, look, look at her——"
Chen Ru stood up from the sofa. Wen Dongrong frowned and said, "Okay, it's really late today. It's the same if you have something to say tomorrow morning."
This is not my home, so it’s not a good idea to pull Wen Ying out of the room and give her a good scolding.
Chen Ru fell asleep in anger, waiting to settle the score with Wen Ying the next morning. However, Wen Ying got up earlier than her and went out for a run at six in the morning. She didn't come back until half past eight, took a quick shower, and went to Jiang's house with her schoolbag for extra lessons. Chen Ru didn't get a chance.
It’s even more impossible to say at noon.
Chen Ru and Wen Dongrong came to Chengdu to treat Lin Lin to dinner.
In addition to Lin Lin, the lunch party also included Lin Lin's mother-in-law Guo Xia, who is the vice president of a provincial key school and gave a lot of face to Wen Dongrong and his wife.
At this dinner, Chen Ru and his wife, Lin Lin, and Guo Xia were the protagonists, and Chen Li was just a supporting role. The adults were discussing business, so Wen Ying and Xie Qian of course did not go.
During the meal, Lin Lin kept praising Wen Ying, and even her mother-in-law Guo Xia looked at her sideways:
"Lin Lin, it's rare to see you praise a student like this. Since you like Wen Ying, why don't you assign her to your class when school starts?"
Seeing Chen Ru and Wen Dongrong's lack of reaction, Guo Xia simply nodded at them, "Lin Lin has been teaching at a provincial key school for several years. The school's leadership team recognizes her teaching ability and has unanimously decided to give her more responsibilities. At the start of the new semester, we plan to have Lin Lin lead the experimental class for the first grade."
Chen Ru was stunned.
Principal Guo means to let Wen Ying study in the experimental class?
Chen Ru and Wen Dongrong have been thinking about this recently.
They had previously determined that Wen Ying would not be able to get into the provincial key school, so they prepared some money to use connections to help Wen Ying. However, when the high school entrance examination results came out, Wen Ying did not need to use connections, so the money the couple had prepared was saved.
Deep down, everyone has a bit of the "greed for more" quality in their heart. Since Wen Ying was able to get into the provincial key school, it would definitely be better if the couple worked harder and sent Wen Ying to the experimental class!
The couple came to Chengdu this time just to test Lin Lin's opinion, but before they could open their mouths, Principal Guo Xia brought it up on her own initiative.
Wen Dongrong reacted faster than Chen Ru, his tone full of surprise. "Principal Guo, Teacher Lin, is this too much trouble? Wen Ying's grades were okay in our small school, but very average at the provincial key school. This, this... Oh, I'm almost incoherent. I'm grateful for your kindness, but I'm also worried that Wen Ying will disappoint you."
Wen Dongrong wanted a definite answer.
Lin Lin smiled and said, "Whether she can keep up with the progress is indeed a problem. We can try it first. If Wen Ying really can't keep up with the teaching progress of the experimental class, we can let her go to the parallel class when the arts and sciences are divided."
Chen Ru came to her senses and immediately made a pledge on Wen Ying's behalf: "As her parents, we will definitely support her with all our strength and will not let her grades fall below the requirements of the experimental class!"
Thanks to the good news revealed by Guo Xia, the meal was a great success for both the host and the guests. Chen Ru had originally wanted to suggest finding another place for Wen Ying to take tutoring classes, but Principal Guo and Lin Lin did her such a big favor that Chen Ru had to swallow her doubts.
After watching Lin Lin and Guo Xia get into the car, Chen Li smiled and said, "Sister, brother-in-law, you can rest assured now. Principal Guo has already said that Wen Ying will be able to attend the experimental class as soon as school starts!"
Chen Ru smiled at first, then turned serious. "Why worry? Didn't you hear what Teacher Lin said? If Wen Ying can't keep up with the experimental class, she'll have to go back to the parallel class when the arts and sciences are divided. This summer, she must fully prepare for high school. Tutoring in math, physics, and chemistry is right, but if she keeps doing it one day at a time, she won't be able to fully utilize all her time. Her crayfish business is over!"
Chen Li was stunned.
"But you and Wen Ying agreed to let her earn her own tuition, living expenses, and tutoring fees. If she doesn't start the crayfish business, how else can she make money?"
Chen Ru glared at Chen Li. "Can't you tell which is more important? Giving her a chance means she'll admit defeat with conviction, but the situation is different now. We don't care about the bet anymore. I'm her mother. I gave birth to her and raised her. She still depends on me for support, so she has to listen to me!"
Chen Li's heart sank to the bottom.
Of course learning is important.
But Wen Ying did not delay her studies. She was very serious during the supplementary classes. After the classes, she would go home and practice exercises until late at night every day.
If you think Wen Ying is not worthy of having her own opinions, you shouldn't have agreed to sign that "bet" in the first place.
After just a few days of giving hope, Wen Ying had just set up the night snack stall, and then she forcefully stopped it.
Chen Li couldn't help but speak up for Wen Ying. "Wen Ying's quitting now. Let's not talk about what she thinks, but what about her friends? They all decided to set up stalls with Wen Ying because of her encouragement!"
Chen Ru disagreed. "What friends? If she can't get into a good university and doesn't have a good job in the future, do you think these 'friends' will still care about her? They don't come from the same social background to begin with, and they've only known each other for a short time, yet she's so eager to help others. Do they even consider her a true friend?"
Chen Li was speechless after being blocked by Chen Ru.
Qin Jiao, Xie Qian and others made friends with Wen Ying because they valued Wen Ying herself, not because of any benefits she could bring to them. However, in Chen Ru's mouth, the friendship between these children became a mercenary choice.
