Upon hearing this, and considering the words on the note, Gu Xiaoxue understood what had happened.
He said to Hua Kai, "This is easy to handle. The student records of those who don't report for the start of the semester will be kept for a period of time. I'll take you to the first-year department to check which class you've been assigned to. Just tell the teacher and come back to school as soon as possible."
At this moment, Gu Xiaoxue did not believe that Hua Kai and Ye Yifan were really just acquaintances. The Ye Yifan she knew was not the kind of person who would help a girl casually. Ye Yifan never had any female friends. She had even suspected that he might have a mental problem before.
But this girl is here to start high school, so she's only seventeen or eighteen. Would Brother Fan be interested in such a young girl? But then why would he help her? Or is this just Brother Fan's type? He frowned, unable to figure it out.
Hua Kai no longer wanted to explain, because the other party's gossipy little eyes told her that he wouldn't believe anything she said, and she should just wait for time to prove it.
She bowed to Gu Xiaoxue and said, "Thank you, Director Gu. I'll have to trouble you then."
Gu Xiaoxue said very politely, "You're Brother Fan's friend, so you're one of us. If you need anything at school, just come find me." With that, she took Hua Kai and left the office, heading to the first-year group's office.
Upon arriving at the office, Gu Xiaoxue took Hua Kai to her position as the group leader for the first year.
When the team leader saw Gu Xiaoxue arrive, he stood up and said, "Director Gu."
Gu Xiaoxue said, "Team Leader Li, this is a freshman named Huakai. He was delayed in registering because of family matters. Could you help me find out which class he was assigned to?"
Team Leader Li flipped through the booklet as he said, "I remember Hua Kai. She did well, ranking eighteenth in the city. We thought it was a pity she didn't come to report back then. If I remember correctly, she should be in Class 3."
Gu Xiaoxue was a little surprised when she heard the results and glanced at Huakai.
At this moment, Team Leader Li also found Hua Kai's name on the list: "It's Class Three."
Gu Xiaoxue thanked Team Leader Li, and then took Hua Kai to the position of the Class 3 homeroom teacher.
Hua Kai also bowed to thank Team Leader Li, and then followed behind Gu Xiaoxue.
Since they were all in the same office, the homeroom teacher of Class 3 had overheard what was happening and had already stood up: "Director Gu, why did you personally bring the students to register?"
The homeroom teacher of Class 3 was a middle-aged male teacher who wore glasses, was a bit thin, and his name was Wang Xiangjun. He looked rather shrewd.
Gu Xiaoxue said to Wang Xiangjun, "This is a relative of ours. I'll have to ask Teacher Wang to take good care of him in the future."
Wang Xiangjun smiled and said, "Director Gu, you're too kind. Which teacher doesn't like a student with good grades?"
Hua Kai was surprised that Gu Xiaoxue was so open about it, directly saying that she was his relative. This person is really worth befriending.
Of course, she knew that the person in front of her was her homeroom teacher, and she had to make a good impression on him. She bowed to Wang Xiangjun and said, "Hello, Teacher Wang."
Wang Xiangjun nodded: "Although you are a few days late in reporting, you have a good foundation, so you should have no problem with your studies. I will take you to the dormitory to confirm your bed and get the key from the dormitory manager. When you come to report, you can settle your things in the dormitory, and it will be convenient for you to come to me to report. You can pick up your books and school uniform when you arrive."
Hua Kai quickly agreed, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Teacher Wang."
Wang Xiangjun tidied up the things on the table and then took Hua Kai and Gu Xiaoxue to the dormitory building.
Hua Kai originally thought that Gu Xiaoxue could leave after dropping him off at the homeroom teacher's place, but she didn't expect that he would come with her to the dormitory. It seems that his relationship with Ye Yifan is even better than she thought.
Of course, this made Hua Kai admire Ye Yifan even more. Although he wasn't very good with words, the fact that he had such good friends showed that he was a very good person.
The teaching buildings, dormitories, and canteens of the No. 1 High School in the city are separate, and both the dormitories and canteens are in the same compound as the teachers' family housing.
Upon arriving at the girls' dormitory building, Wang Xiangjun greeted the dormitory supervisor, took the key, and led Hua Kai and Gu Xiaoxue inside.
The dormitories for Class 3 are on the second floor, in two rooms, 203 and 204. Each room has six bunk beds, and there is a cabinet near the door with six doors, one cabinet for each bed.
Room 204 is full now, so there's only one spot left in room 203. Fortunately, the room layout is such that when you enter, you face the wardrobe, so there aren't any particularly bad beds. The remaining bed is the upper bunk behind the door.
Gu Xiaoxue looked at the upper bunk and asked Hua Kai, "Would you dare to stay in the upper bunk?"
Hua Kai didn't want to trouble the teacher, so she quickly nodded: "I dare to stay, I'm brave."
Wang Xiangjun was quite satisfied with what Hua Kai said. To be honest, this was a relative of the director of the Political Education Department. This director of the Political Education Department was parachuted in. He was so young to become the director, so his family background must be extraordinary. He didn't want to offend him.
Seeing Hua Kai's response, Wang Xiangjun, ever the smooth talker, said, "Then stay here for now. If you don't like it, just let me know and I'll help you find another place."
Hua Kai said, "Thank you, Teacher Wang. I really think the top bunk is nice; it's clean, and I like it a lot."
Wang Xiangjun said, "Okay, then remember this location. Just bring your luggage and come directly when the time comes." After saying that, he gave the key to Huakai and told her to just come directly when she reported for duty.
After they finished looking at the dormitories, they went out together. It was school time, so the dormitories were empty and quiet.
After going downstairs, they passed by the cafeteria, but the cafeteria doors were closed at the time. It wasn't mealtime yet, and the staff were all in the kitchen, so the main entrance was not open. Wang Xiangjun simply introduced it to Hua Kai.
Once outside the dormitory compound, there was nothing else needed. Wang Xiangjun had already discussed the expenses with Hua Kai as they walked. They just needed to wait for Hua Kai to arrive with her tuition and luggage to register. Therefore, Hua Kai didn't need to go back to the teaching building. She thanked Gu Xiaoxue and Wang Xiangjun and wanted to say goodbye and head back.
Hua Kai was in a hurry to get home. It was only a little before ten o'clock. She would feel more at ease if she could get to the village where her parents went to the market by eleven o'clock.
Before he could even say goodbye, Gu Xiaoxue told Teacher Wang to go back first, saying she wanted to speak with Huakai alone for a few minutes.
Hua Kai figured that Gu Xiaoxue probably had something to tell Ye Yifan. These were people who had helped her a lot, and she respected them all. She was sure she would deliver the message.
So she politely said goodbye to Wang Xiangjun as well. After Wang Xiangjun left, Hua Kai asked Gu Xiaoxue, "Director Gu, is there anything you want me to tell Captain Ye?"
"Captain Ye? That's too formal. Brother Fan may seem cold, but once you get to know him, he's incredibly kind to his own people." Gu Xiaoxue couldn't help but think that Ye Yifan, who was practically immune to the opposite sex, was definitely not simple if he helped a girl.
It's a bit awkward now that the flowers are blooming. What should I call myself? Should I call you Brother Fan like you? Nothing seems quite right.
She could only say, "Captain Ye said that we don't need to worry too much about how we address each other, so I've just been calling him that."
"That's true, Brother Fan is not one to fuss over details." Gu Xiaoxue always spoke of Ye Yifan with admiration, and that smile made Hua Kai a little suspicious of his sexual orientation.
