He had always thought that Chu Xiaorou was an excellent student with good character and academic performance, and since she was recommended by Director Liu, he approved her application.
But he had just called over a few classmates to ask, and they found out that Chu Xiaorou's grades were terrible, she even skipped class, and she had a condescending attitude towards her classmates.
He doesn't study hard, doesn't do his homework, and doesn't attend classes.
It's unbelievable that a student like that could get his spot.
It was an insult to the other students and a slap in his face.
Especially since he hadn't even apologized to Teacher Li and the others before Liu Fangren let them go!
The principal gave Director Liu a cold look.
"Go to my office and wait for me now. Your duties will be temporarily taken over by Teacher Wang. If you don't explain things clearly, you'll be suspended!"
After the principal finished speaking, he turned and left.
Director Liu was left pale-faced, gritting his teeth as he tried to explain to the principal and minimize the losses.
What happened next was told to Xia Lan by Teacher Li.
Chu Xiaorou was suspected of bribery and using improper means to seize a spot. She was expelled and sent back to the military's cultural troupe.
Director Liu was directly dismissed by the principal and will never be hired again.
The principal even made a special trip to see her to check on her and ask if she had been hurt.
Xia Lan shook her head. She was fine. Fortunately, she had been keeping an eye on Chu Xiaorou, so she noticed when Chu Xiaorou stretched out her foot.
This was a small matter for Xia Lan, but it reached Du Wenqing's ears.
The next day, Du Wenqing arrived at the school and found Xia Lan.
"Lanlan, are you alright?"
Du Wenqing looked at Xia Lan nervously.
"Old Du, what brings you here?"
Xia Lan looked at Du Wenqing and asked, puzzled.
"How could I sit still after hearing that something happened to you!"
Knowing about Xia Lan's relationship with him, the principal was afraid that Xia Lan would complain to Du Wenqing, so he brought gifts to Du Wenqing. After listening to the whole story with a frown, Du Wenqing scolded the principal.
"I'm fine, it's such a small matter that I'm bothering you."
"You silly girl, are you thinking about everything on your own? You're pregnant! You can't afford to fall or hurt yourself! Maybe you should take a break from school?"
Du Wenqing looked at Xia Lan with a nervous expression. It seemed that even at school, she wasn't safe.
What if something happens? How am I supposed to explain this to Qin Yu?
"Old Du, it's not that serious, it's just a small matter."
Xia Lan comforted him, but Du Wenqing gave her a disapproving look.
"Should I tell Qin Yu about this?"
Xia Lan froze upon hearing this.
"He's still recovering from his injury! Let's not let him know, okay?"
Xia Lan pursed her lips. If Qin Yu found out, he would definitely be angry.
"Now you know! This feeling..."
Du Wenqing chuckled and glanced at Xia Lan.
"hey-hey."
Xia Lan gave a flattering smile.
"Alright, it's good that you're okay! Old Xiao even called me, and he came looking for you anyway. What do you think?"
Du Wenqing also mentioned Xiao Guoqiang, who wanted Xia Lan to stay by his side and get to know him better.
Xia Lan thought for a moment.
"Mr. Du, please thank Mr. Xiao for his kindness! After this incident, I'll just focus on attending classes at school for now!"
Xia Lan was actually a little scared. What if Chu Xiaorou had succeeded and harmed the baby in her womb...
She didn't even dare to think about the consequences; she would definitely break down.
Xia Lan decided to focus on her studies at school and take care of her pregnancy.
It's not too late to try after the baby is born.
"Yes, yes, that's how it should be! Okay, I'll get back to Lao Xiao and give him a reply."
Du Wenqing strongly agreed with Xia Lan's choice.
I thought the school was safe, but I never expected that something almost happened there.
He was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Xia Lan's choice was regrettable, but Xiao Guoqiang could understand her. So he asked Du Wenqing to tell Xia Lan that whenever she wanted, there would always be a place for her by his side.
After hearing Xia Lan's words, Qin Yu kissed her forehead. Although he didn't say anything, it was clear that he was very happy.
As her belly grew bigger day by day, Xia Lan could no longer hide her pregnancy.
Everyone noticed that Xia Lan was pregnant, and everyone took good care of her, helping her whenever possible without letting her lift a finger.
Sudan and Zhao Pandi even acted as Xia Lan's bodyguards, keeping an eye on her safety at all times except when she was in class.
Wu Shishi considers herself the child's godmother and learns from her mother how to make clothes for Xia Lan's unborn child.
Although it wasn't very well done, Xia Lan accepted it all because of her good intentions.
Summer vacation arrived in the blink of an eye, and Xia Lan was already six months pregnant. With her belly sticking out, she was becoming a little clumsy.
After recovering, Qin Yu officially became Du Wenqing's bodyguard under Qin Jun's arrangement.
Besides protecting Du Wenqing, he can also visit Xia Lan at the school in his spare time.
He prepared meals for Xia Lan every day and delivered them to her, so that he could both take care of Xia Lan and protect Du Wenqing.
On weekends, they would return to Qinyu together so that the family could reunite.
Even Qin Jun would try to stay home as much as possible on weekends to spend time with Qin Yu.
"Lanlan, look, did I print the wrong flower?"
Xiao Yuqin looked at the little sweater in her hand and asked Xia Lan for help.
Xiao Yuqin is a great cook, but she's really terrible at handicrafts.
Even knitting a sweater can result in a knot that's impossible to untie.
Qin Jun tried to persuade her to give up, but she said she wanted to do something for the child in Xia Lan's belly.
That day, Xia Lan had Qin Yu buy some yarn and was knitting a small sweater, which made Xiao Yuqin extremely envious. She asked Xia Lan to teach her.
Xia Lan patiently taught her step by step, and Xiao Yuqin was finally able to perform some tricks.
"Here it is! I'll teach you! First, tear this place down..."
Xia Lan rescued Xiao Yuqin's little sweater while teaching her.
Xiao Yuqin felt that Xia Lan just turned around and her pattern was complete.
"You're really amazing! If I were to do it all by myself, I wouldn't be able to finish knitting this dress by the time the baby grows up! How come something this difficult is so easy for you to do, like it's child's play?"
Xiao Yuqin saw that Xia Lan could turn the ball around very easily, but when it came to her, it was as if her brain had rusted.
I was stumped as I kept knitting.
Xia Lan could knit with her eyes closed, and even when someone was chatting with her, her hands never stopped.
"It's all about getting used to it! Actually, it's all the same knitting method. Once you've practiced it enough, you can knit it even with your eyes closed!"
Xia Lan smiled at Xiao Yuqin.
I still think you're amazing!
Xiao Yuqin looked at Xia Lan and smiled.
She happily took the little sweater to show Qin Jun and Qin Yu.
The father and son were playing chess in the study. Qin Jun looked serious and stared at the chessboard for a long time without moving.
He was extremely distressed. He had only taught his son to play chess a few days ago, and now the father was about to lose to his son.
Wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing if word got out?
