Under the pressure of Liang Su, Xu Yan apologized and met Zhou Lan on the way back to the classroom.
She was so angry that she took it out on Zhou Lan.
"Teacher Zhou, you're asking me to edit your drawings again? I've told you countless times that I won't edit them anymore. If you have the guts, go find someone else."
Zhou Lan was so angry that she started looking for the enrollment brochure drawn by Xu Yan.
Xu Yan's skills were mediocre, and she was not satisfied with the painting. She begged her to revise it twice, but she was still unhappy.
She was not happy, and Zhou Lan was not happy either. She was not allowed to say anything even though the painting was not good.
"Don't worry, I'm not really here to look for you. I've already found someone else to help me, and I won't bother you again."
Zhou Lan rolled her eyes and passed her by.
Xu Yan's face turned pale and blue, it seemed that she was just being too sentimental.
Zhou Lan opened the door of the Academic Affairs Office and walked in.
"Ms. Gu, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
Gu Xia stood up and looked at Xu Yan.
He scolded again: "Xu Yan, is this how you talk to teachers at school?"
Xu Yan avoided her gaze and didn't dare to meet her eyes.
She has always been afraid of Gu Xia's majesty.
Zhou Lan smiled and said, "It's okay. Children are impulsive in what they say and do."
Gu Xia lowered her eyes. Eighteen years old, is she still a child?
"Teacher Zhou, I'm here for Ye Fen. I'm thinking about setting up a psychology room at school and hiring professional psychologists to help students relieve their stress. If you need financial support, I can provide you with that."
Zhou Lan had thought about this before. Students' development should be multi-faceted, and both physical and mental health should be given attention.
Now that she has someone supporting her, she is naturally very happy.
"Okay, I'll report this matter and keep you updated on the progress. When I need funds, I'll talk to Ms. Gu again."
Gu Xia smiled and nodded, then said goodbye to her.
When she came out of the office, her face turned cold.
She really didn't like Xu Yan, and tried to advise her for the sake of their elder status, but found that she simply wouldn't listen.
Xu Yan was also dissatisfied, but she still followed her, complaining: "Aunt Gu, why are you so concerned about Ye Fen? She is just an orphan. Even if she starves to death or freezes to death, it has nothing to do with you."
She always felt that in Gu Xia's heart, she was not as good as Ye Fen.
This is why she has always been jealous of Ye Fen.
Gu Xia watched her grow up, and now he is so kind to an orphan.
"Why do you think I've been supporting the welfare home for so many years?"
Xu Yan was speechless. She knew that Gu Xia had a daughter who was missing.
"You know, right? It's for my daughter. I treat these children well, hoping that others in places I don't know about will also treat my daughter better. Xu Yan, I have always believed that evil will be punished and good will be rewarded. All the sins you commit today will return to you in another way in the future."
So Gu Xia has always restrained herself. She only does good things and has no other extravagant hopes except for her daughter.
"Today I'm teaching you for the last time. Learn to distinguish right from wrong and use moral and legal principles to restrain your behavior. I'm not asking you to be a good person, but at least don't hurt others."
Gu Xiayan did her best here. She thought she had fulfilled her duty towards Xu Yan.
Xu Yan wanted to talk to her again about Xu Changli and Qian Qiuxia.
But Gu Xia's assistant Xiaoyu ran over and said that the old lady in Coconut City fell and broke her leg.
If an elderly person falls, it can be very serious and can easily result in death.
Gu Xia followed her in a hurry, not even paying attention to Xu Yan.
…
After returning from school registration, Liang Su devoted all his energy to drawing the admissions brochure for the school.
Wang Hongyue urged her to start drawing the third promotional picture book, and it would be best if it could be submitted after the new year.
So Liang Su was very busy during this period.
Qiong Ya came to see her several times and asked her to go out and play, but Liang Su refused to go.
Qiongya had no choice but to go to her house herself and sit beside her to watch her paint.
"If I can draw, will Chu Yi like me?" Qiong Ya held her chin.
When Liang Su heard her words, he knew that she had hit a snag with Chu Yi.
Chu Yi felt that Qiong Ya was young and still a minor, and Liang Su could understand that.
Chu Yi also served in the army, and like Shen Congji, he has a strong sense of morality.
It would be despised if he attacked the underage Qiong Ya.
"If you like someone, you shouldn't think about changing her. Shen Congji and I both have a lot of little flaws, but I like him just the way he is now. He has both good and bad sides, and he's a living, flesh-and-blood person."
She also didn't want Qiongya to change herself for a man.
"If you really like painting, I can teach you, but you shouldn't learn it just for Chu Yi."
Qiong Ya sighed, "Then what will it take for him to like me?"
"How do you know he doesn't like you?" Liang Su asked back.
"Need I say more? He avoids me like the plague." Qiong Ya's face was full of melancholy.
Liang Su put down his paintbrush and said, "Qiong Ya, you are still studying here at your age, you are just a child."
"I'm not a child!"
"Of course you are not a child in Yandong Village, but you are here."
Qiongya was so angry that she stomped her feet hard.
But she couldn't add a few years to her own age, nor could she make Chu Yi a few years younger.
At Chu Yi's age, if it were someone else, the child might already be several years old.
Qiongya is not sure, can he wait for her to grow up?
"Then what should I do?" She became even more melancholy.
Liang Su said: "If he likes you, age won't be a problem, because he will wait for you to grow up. But if he doesn't like you, why should you think about it? Can't you just find someone else?"
Qiong Ya bit her lip and asked, "Then how can I know if he likes me?"
Liang Su knocked her head and said, "Go ask him."
Ask him if he likes you and if he is willing to wait for you to grow up.
Qiong Ya pouted, "What if he says he doesn't like it?"
Liang Su looked at her and said, "Then grow up well. I'll introduce you to a better man in the future. Qiongya, life is very long and we still have a lot of things to do. You can't devote yourself to one man."
Qiongya fell silent. Her mother had also said the same thing.
But she really likes Chu Yi, very, very much.
"I understand. I'll ask him this time. If he doesn't like me, I won't bother him anymore."
After Qiongya finished speaking, she smiled brightly and ran outside.
She is the young chief of Yandong Village, and love is only a small part of her life.
Liang Su was right, she shouldn't devote herself to one man.
But Qiongya still wanted to give it a try, just to give herself an answer.
