The melodious ringtone of a cell phone broke the tense atmosphere.
Gu Baiwei hurriedly pressed the answer button, and a male voice with a strong middle-level accent immediately came from the other end.
"Excuse me, are you Ye Chuyue's parent?"
Gu Baiwei paused for a second, then nodded: "Yes, may I ask what you need?"
The man on the other end seemed to sigh: "Hello, I am Ye Chuyue's homeroom teacher. Ye Chuyue ranked last in the whole school in this diagnostic test. I hope you can come to the school."
Last place?
Gu Baiwei looked astonished. How could this be?
Putting everything else aside, her two children both took after their father, Ye Yunting, and showed extraordinary intelligence from a young age.
While other babies were just crying, Ye Chuyue was already able to recognize people.
When Gu Baiwei comes over, she will smile with her soft, chubby gums, but if it's the nanny, she will scrunch up her little face and turn her head to the side.
Gu Baiwei thought at the time that this little girl would definitely grow up to be a top student, just like her brother.
"Excuse me, do you have a moment now?"
After not hearing a reply from Gu Baiwei for a long time, the homeroom teacher couldn't help but ask.
Gu Baiwei nodded hurriedly: "I'll be there right away if I have time."
Come to think of it, she hadn't paid attention to Ye Chuyue's studies since her rebirth, so now was a good opportunity to find out.
Shen Yanqing picked up the coat from the side: "I'll give it to you."
Gu Baiwei wanted to refuse, but when she thought of the man's domineering nature, she could only nod in agreement.
The black Maybach stopped at the school gate. Gu Baiwei thanked him and was about to get out of the car when Shen Yanqing grabbed her wrist with his long, calloused fingers: "I'll go with you."
"No need, Mr. Shen, I can manage on my own."
After Gu Baiwei finished speaking, she hurriedly got out of the car, but before getting out, she couldn't help but steal a glance at Shen Yanqing.
Their gazes briefly met, then quickly shifted away.
What's wrong with this guy? According to the original novel, he should be doing everything he can to pester Xia Shihan right now, so why does he keep appearing in front of her like a ghost?
Could it be that he wants to use her to deal with Ye Sinian?
After all, in the novel, Shen Yanqing used every means to deal with Ye Sinian, her rival in love.
Thinking of this possibility, Gu Baiwei's gaze toward Shen Yanqing became even more cautious.
However, now is not the time to think about this; she has more important things to do...
She took a deep breath and knocked on the office door.
A middle-aged man opened the door, and his sparse Mediterranean hair stood out prominently in the sunlight.
The moment the man looked at Gu Baiwei, his originally serious gaze instantly turned respectful.
Gu Baiwei was puzzled by his gaze, but she soon understood why he was looking at her like that.
"Mr. Chen... what brings you here? Is there any instruction?"
Shen Yanqing is the biggest investor in this school. Even the principal treats him with utmost respect, let alone a mere homeroom teacher.
Gu Baiwei's expression cracked for a moment when she met Shen Yanqing's handsome and gentle face.
What exactly is he trying to do? Why did he follow us?
Shen Yanqing smiled gently at her and looked at the balding male teacher opposite her: "It's nothing, I came with my girlfriend."
Gu Baiwei almost coughed up tears from the word "girlfriend".
Looking up, she met Shen Yanqing's teasing gaze and knew he was doing it on purpose, which made her feel a little angry.
The homeroom teacher seemed to only then remember Gu Baiwei, and looked at her with a beaming smile: "Hello! Are you Ye Chuyue's sister?"
Gu Baiwei shook her head and explained, "I am her aunt."
The homeroom teacher was stunned for a moment; this aunt was far too young.
But he quickly composed himself and said, "Ye Chuyue has been at the bottom of the class in the last few exams, but when I looked through her papers, I found that every single question she answered was correct."
Gu Baiwei frowned upon hearing this: "You mean she did it on purpose?"
The homeroom teacher handed her a stack of test papers: "Look, this is Ye Chuyue's test paper."
Gu Baiwei flipped through the papers one by one and quickly discovered that most of them had only answered the multiple choice and true/false questions, leaving the major questions blank.
Was this girl doing it on purpose?
Gu Baiwei hadn't expected that Ye Chuyue really hadn't done it on purpose.
"You said you haven't learned these questions before, so you don't know them?"
This was the first time Gu Baiwei had ever felt that teaching children was such a headache.
Although Ye Sinian was aloof and didn't like to get close to people when she was a child, she never had to worry about her studies.
By the time he was in fifth grade, he had already completed junior high school courses through self-study and had always been a well-known academic star in the school.
Great, one member of the family is first in the whole school, and the other is last in the whole school, both are number one.
"The teacher said that these questions were all covered in class."
Gu Baiwei had a headache.
Ye Chuyue said matter-of-factly, "But I didn't listen."
Gu Baiwei almost had a heart attack from anger.
“Starting tomorrow, I will hire a tutor to come to your home to help you.”
Ye Chuyue protested: "You're not my mother, why should you..."
Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly met a pair of eyes as deep and cold as a pool. Ye Chuyue shuddered and swallowed the rest of her words.
Why did that horrible man come with my aunt when she came to school?
She was afraid Ye Sinian would beat her up, so she gave her homeroom teacher Gu Baiwei's phone number, but...
If I had known it would turn out like this, I would have preferred to let her brother beat her up.
"In short, I will work hard on my own and don't need any tutoring."
Ye Chuyue protested softly, saying that she had only not been paying attention in class, and that the questions were not actually that difficult.
