Lin Xiao entered in silence and knocked on the door.
The person who opened the door for him was a butler, a middle-aged man, who was probably the one who took care of Gu Nanxi.
The butler glanced at Lin Xiao and let him in, because he felt there was nothing wrong with the man.
"Hello, who are you?"
"Oh, hello, I am Gu Nanxi's teacher. Because Gu Nanxi has not been to school for a long time, I am a little worried about him."
Led by the butler, Lin Xiao entered Gu Nanxi's room. As he stood at the door, the butler gave Lin Xiao some special instructions.
Although he is called the young master, he is plagued by illness, so don't be afraid. In fact, apart from this illness, the young master is perfectly fine.
Lin Xiao nodded silently and stepped inside.
He noticed that the room was decorated with yellow curtains, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere, presumably intended to make the occupant feel cozy.
Then I saw Gu Nanxi on the bed, with several tubes inserted into her body and something on her face. It was clearly like a ward for seriously ill patients.
A heavy atmosphere emanated from the room. Lin Xiao knew that this was the smell he had smelled when he asked at the door earlier.
Why does the boy seem to exude a sense of sadness...?
Lin Xiao moved the stool over and sat next to the boy, propping himself up with his hands to take a good look at him.
He looked closely and realized the boy was actually quite handsome, the kind of boy girls liked.
A fair and clean face, and hair that looks like it's falling on his face—he must look very handsome.
Lin Xiao's inner assessment can be summed up in two words: pure.
"Why is such an innocent person lying here? What exactly did you, the male protagonist, go through?"
Gu Nanxi's fingers seemed to twitch slightly; it was unclear whether this was due to hearing Lin Xiao's words.
Unfortunately, Lin Xiao didn't notice.
Lin Xiao placed Gu Nanxi's hand on top of him and held it tightly.
As if afraid that Gu Nanxi would be in pain, he hurriedly let go.
He smiled slightly and said, "Gu Nanxi, let me tell you a secret if you wake up."
Lin Xiao, who suddenly brought this up, didn't mind that he seemed to be talking to thin air.
Because he believed the boy would wake up; at least, that's what he thought.
The butler called Lin Xiao down, perhaps because there was something important, and Lin Xiao dared not delay.
"Butler, is there something you need? If there's anything I can help with, I certainly will."
The sincere tone sounded like something a teacher would say, but the housekeeper thought...
If he meets the CEO, he might not be able to say things like that anymore.
"Ms. Lin, please come with me. Our CEO has something to discuss with you, oh, that is, Mr. Gu's father."
Lin Xiao found it strange; what was his relationship with this principal?
However, out of politeness, Lin Xiao still went to meet the person.
"Okay, then please lead the way, butler."
The man sat on the sofa, brewing fine tea and waiting for his teacher, Lin Xiao, to arrive.
The man's face remained silent, revealing nothing.
When he heard footsteps, he smiled with relief.
"Come, Teacher Lin, please sit here. This is some premium Tieguanyin tea that I just brewed."
I didn't know what kind of tea you liked, so I made it according to my taste.
Lin Xiao was a little flattered. Was the principal, who didn't usually show his face much, really this gentle?
Lin Xiao drank the tea without ceremony, took a sip, and waited for the other person to speak.
"Teacher Lin, I don't want to waste your time anymore, so I'll just get straight to the point."
The kind and friendly voice made Lin Xiao nod without any suspicion.
"I'd like you to be Gu Nanxi's, oh, that is, your student and my son's private tutor. I wonder if you think that's alright, teacher?"
Lin Xiao was puzzled; why so suddenly?
"Why did you suddenly make this decision, Principal Gu? I remember that Gu Nanxi also has teachers."
He felt guilty, referring to the private tutor.
"Actually, I also feel that I'm putting you in a difficult position, but I feel that only you can save my son."
If you don't help me, I really don't know what to do.
After Principal Gu finished speaking, he glanced at Lin Xiao, who clearly still didn't understand, so he carefully explained the reason to him again.
"Actually, it's because I saw on the monitor that when you were talking to my son, my son's hand moved!"
"Do you know what 'moved' means? It means the stream might still be alive!"
Perhaps because he missed her so much, Principal Gu was very excited.
However, Lin Xiao understood that feeling. He only had one child, and now the child was indeed unconscious. If it were him, he probably would have found it even harder to accept.
Lin Xiao's expression had already told Principal Gu that he agreed with what he said.
"I can completely understand how a father feels when he misses his child, so if that's the case..."
"Principal Gu, I've agreed to the favor you asked for."
After saying that, Lin Xiao added, "Because he is also my student, I have an obligation to him as well."
The boy finally agreed, and he felt relieved. He seemed to see a glimmer of hope for his son, whom he had been unable to conceive.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, teacher. Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help.
Principal Gu is a very contentious person, even when it comes to his own son. He still paid Lin Xiao a salary.
Lin Xiao was quite pleased with himself; he was happy to receive double the salary and accepted it without hesitation.
After Principal Gu left, Lin Xiao went into Gu Nanxi's room again, but this time he just stood outside and didn't look inside.
He felt that only by understanding the root cause of the illness could he know how to resolve Gu Nanxi's situation.
the next day.
Lin Xiao, being a teacher at the school, naturally had to give a lecture. After class, he asked the class monitor to stop and not leave yet.
"Class monitor, the teacher has something to ask you later. I don't know if you're free now."
Lin Xiao's gentle way of speaking was almost too much for the class monitor to handle. Because the class monitor was a girl, and in private, she also enjoyed looking at handsome men.
Her little face flushed as she stared at the teacher, because he was so handsome; he was the school's recognized handsome male teacher.
"Okay, Teacher Lin called me. Of course I have time. What do you plan to ask me to do?"
Lin Xiao could only ignore the class monitor's reaction, giving her the illusion that they were just teacher and student.
"Okay, then come with the teacher."
The class monitor was called to the office. At this time, the office should be empty, so it would be convenient to talk.
Lin Xiao turned on the computer and moved it over to show the class monitor.
