Chapter 154: Whose Responsibility Is This?
Although there were only two simple words in the dialog box, an inexplicable surge spread in Lu Qianling's heart.
When she saw the message sent by Meng Chuyuan, her brows relaxed, and the uneasiness and grievance hidden in her heart were not so intense.
"Mengmeng, my Snow White is here, I'll go and greet her." Lu Qianling's lips curled up slightly, not caring at all about what the outcome would be.
Seeing Lu Qianling about to stand up and leave her seat, her deskmate kindly advised, "If you can't find your homework book, just give it to the teacher and stop being silly and arguing with her."
"It depends on my mood." Lu Qianling put the cell phone in her pocket, put her hands in her pockets, and walked out of the classroom casually.
Lu Qianling came to the teacher's office and stood in a conspicuous position by the window. Teachers of the same grade would look at her curiously when they saw her, wanting to see what trouble she had caused this time.
Their class teacher often mentioned Lu Qianling in front of other teachers. Everyone in the office knew about what was going on in their class. There was a female student who was not very serious and often asked for leave. When her leave was not approved, she would skip classes.
Some time ago they said that Lu Qianling's condition had improved a lot, but it lasted less than two weeks. I heard that she even had a fight with the teacher.
The English teacher had just finished teaching their class. After washing her hands, she came back and sat in her office chair, looking at Lu Qianling seriously: "Didn't I ask you to hand in your homework? Why haven't you handed it in yet?"
Lu Qianling responded calmly: "Can you ask a missing person to come home for dinner?"
The teacher's face showed a hint of annoyance. She reached out to adjust her glasses and said coldly, "Why are you comparing your homework book with a missing person? How can they be the same?"
Seeing Lu Qianling standing in a nonchalant manner with her hands in her school uniform pockets, the teacher became even more annoyed. She frowned and said, "Stand still and take your hands out of your pockets."
Lu Qianling took her hand out without changing her expression and adjusted her stance.
Seeing that she looked a little more like a student, the teacher's expression became more cheerful. "I asked you to call your parents. Did you do that?"
Their class teacher is the English teacher. It just so happens that a teacher in the next class is on maternity leave, so she has a heavy workload this semester, teaching English to three classes at the same time. Sometimes she gets so busy that she becomes a little negligent in class management.
This time, Lu Qianling has run into the trap of her class teacher.
Suddenly at this moment, there was a knock on the office door and a young woman appeared at the door.
The people in the office looked towards the door curiously. The teacher closest to the door asked, "Excuse me, who are you looking for?"
Meng Chuyuan wore a mask, and her voice was a little muffled: "I am Lu Qianling's parent, and I am here to see their class teacher."
The teacher was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Lu Qianling had such young parents.
Seeing Meng Chuyuan finally arrived, Lu Qianling didn't care about the occasion and ran straight to Meng Chuyuan: "I thought you were lost."
Lu Qianling was actually quite panicked when she didn’t see Meng Chuyuan when she came in just now.
After all, Meng Chuyuan was just entering society at this age, and Lu Qianling felt that she would be somewhat inferior when facing the teacher as a parent for the first time.
But when Meng Chuyuan met their class teacher, her performance and aura were enough to overwhelm the entire audience.
Although she had been a student before, Meng Chuyuan was not afraid of any teacher she faced: "Hello, teacher. I am Lu Qianling's sister-in-law, Meng Chuyuan."
When the head teacher heard her name, he thought of Meng Chuyuan, who had recently become a hit on the Internet and frequently appeared on hot searches.
She doesn't have time to watch live variety shows on weekdays, but she can still get some information by occasionally playing with her mobile phone. Netizens have a high praise rate for Meng Chuyuan. Today, she was fortunate to meet him in person, and it was really as what was said on the Internet.
She has bright eyes with a slight smile in them. She is humble and approachable. She is definitely a woman who can make people like her without even showing her face.
Facing such a gentle and polite Meng Chuyuan, the head teacher's voice couldn't help but soften a bit: "Hello."
"I've roughly learned about Lu Qianling's situation at school. You haven't seen her homework, so...?"
Meng Chuyuan deliberately didn't say too much, because he wanted to see what the teacher really thought about the matter.
"I didn't see Lu Qianling's homework when I was grading it, so I wanted her to hand it in, but she refused and started arguing with me in class. I had no choice but to ask your parents to come over."
Lu Qianling felt that she was complaining to Meng Chuyuan, and couldn't help but ask: "I handed in the homework, why do you want me to make it up to you?"
The teacher pointed at the thick stack of homework books on the table and said, "This stack of homework is still here. I've looked through it twice but couldn't find yours. Is it so difficult to ask you to make up a copy?"
"This isn't about making up homework, right?" Lu Qianling said, her tone starting to become extreme. "You've always been biased towards your class representative and never trusted me from the beginning. You call it making up homework, but in reality, you just don't trust me. You think I'm lying to you, right?"
Lu Qianling didn't get an explanation yesterday afternoon, and she felt very aggrieved. In order not to affect the normal teaching, the teacher asked her to go out and reflect on her mistakes.
Meng Chuyuan put his hand on Lu Qianling's shoulder, looked down at her, and said, "Calm down for a moment. It's wrong for you to offend the teacher like this. Have you forgotten what I told you at home?"
"It doesn't matter. She doesn't think of me as a good person anyway."
“…”
Seeing that Lu Qianling was unwilling to admit her mistake, Meng Chuyuan did not force her in front of so many people, but this matter still had to be resolved.
After a while, Meng Chuyuan communicated directly with the teacher: "Teacher, I'm sorry, this child is quite stubborn. I apologize to you on her behalf."
"It's okay. This isn't the first day she's been causing trouble for me." As the class teacher, she would discuss anything she couldn't handle with the parents and ask them for help in disciplining the child.
"What did I do? I just missed a few days of classes, but my grades in individual subjects are still above the class average, right?"
Lu Qianling felt that she was not looking for trouble as she did not drag down the class in terms of academic performance. As for attendance evaluations, she did not consider them. She thought that the head teacher and other students were just too concerned about their reputation and wanted to win the banner.
"She was wrong to speak rudely to you in class." Meng Chuyuan then added, "But why did her homework book, which she handed in to the class representative, suddenly disappear? Who is responsible for the disappearance of this homework book?"
Putting aside other issues, as to why Lu Qianling's homework book has not appeared yet, they did not give Lu Qianling an explanation, but instead urged her to hand it in, which was the key reason why Lu Qianling lost control of her emotions.
