"Ding-dong, ding-dong, jingle bells.”
A cheerful ringtone rang in the room. Li Meng looked at the unfamiliar number on the phone and hesitated for a moment before answering it.
As a teacher, every unknown number could be his student or a student's parent.
"Hello, this is Li Meng.”
"Hello, Teacher Li. I hope I'm not disturbing you. I'm Su Chen.”
"Su Chen?"
"Oh, what's wrong? Did you encounter any problems?"
Li Meng was stunned for a moment before Su Chen's face appeared in her mind.
"Teacher, how did you know?"
"Isn't your guess too accurate?"
Su Chen pretended to be surprised.
"How many batches of students have I taught? Do you think I don't know what you guys are thinking? Who would think of me if nothing happened?"
Although she said that, Li Meng didn't think so in her heart.
Su Chen's results in class were not good. It could even be said that he was dragging down the rate of his enrollment.
If not for the fact that Su Chen was an orphan, she would not have been so polite.
"However, what could this child be looking for me for?”
Li Meng waited quietly.
"Teacher, I can't talk about this over the phone. Can we talk about it in person?”
Li Meng looked at the two bags of dumpling skins and a basin of dumpling fillings in front of her. She thought for a moment and said,
"Alright, then come to my house. I'll send the address to your phone later.”
"Alright, Teacher Li, I'll be there soon.”
He hung up the phone.
Li Meng picked up a piece of dumpling skin and was about to fill it when her hand froze.
"You can't say it over the phone? What did this kid want to say to him? Could it be that he wanted to tell her about dropping out of school?”
Yesterday, Teacher Sun from the class next door was said to be too strict with her students, so one of her students was depressed and planned to drop out.
This matter had caused quite a stir.
Su Chen was still in puberty and lacked love since he was young. She had not paid much attention to him.
This kid might really be planning to drop out of school.
The more Li Meng thought about it, the more likely it was.
If that was the case, if this matter was used by someone with ill intentions, then he would be embarrassed.
Just as she decided to call him to clarify, the doorbell rang.
When he walked in, he saw a handsome face appear on the walkie-talkie at the door.
It was Su Chen.
"Sigh, it's a blessing, not a curse.”
"If this child is really here to drop out, then I can only give him some supplementary lessons.”
Li Meng opened the door and prepared her slippers before returning to the coffee table.
"Are you escaping? Why did you bring your luggage?"
Li Meng was shocked when she saw Su Chen dragging a suitcase in.
"It's such a hot day, but you're not resting at home. Instead, you're mysteriously saying that you have something to tell me. What exactly is it?”
She heard that Teacher Sun was too strict when she spoke to the students, and her tone was not very good.
In addition, that student's heart was also relatively weak, so the expulsion incident occurred.
Logically speaking, this matter had nothing to do with Teacher Sun.
However, a student who had been studying in school for two years suddenly dropped out.
This matter was hard to say.
If the matter really got out of hand, the first thing everyone would think of was whether the students had suffered any grievances in school.
Thinking of this, Li Meng unconsciously softened her voice.
" Teacher, I'm making dumplings. Do you need help?"
Su Chen put down the box and said with a smile.
"You can?"
Li Meng looked at Su Chen in surprise.
"I learned it when I was very young, but I haven't made a bag for a long time.”
Su Chen said as he washed his hands. He picked up his chopsticks and picked up a small piece of meat stuffing to place in the middle of the dumpling skin.
In just a few seconds, an exquisite dumpling was placed on the table.
"I couldn't tell. Student Su, you still have such a hidden skill.”
Li Meng looked at the exquisite dumpling in front of her, which looked like a work of art, and looked at Su Chen in surprise.
The dumplings that he had made for so many years had always been pleasing to the eye, but now that they were placed together with Su Chen's, they looked a little ugly.
Li Meng really wanted to ask Su Chen how he did it.
However, he could not bring himself to say it.
She was used to being independent and never had the habit of showing weakness, let alone asking her student for advice on how to make dumplings.
In the living room, the two of them ate each other's food without saying a word.
"By the way, didn't you say that you were looking for me for something? What exactly was going on?“
Li Meng couldn't help but ask when she saw Su Chen wrapping it up leisurely as if he was at home.
She wondered if she was overthinking things.
Hearing this, Su Chen stopped what he was doing. He put down his chopsticks and said,"
"Teacher, I have a presumptuous request. Please agree.”
Seeing the boy in front of her stand up solemnly, Li Meng suddenly couldn't sit still.
"Su Chen, sit down. What do you want?”
"Let me tell you, this is my home.”
Seeing Su Chen's serious expression, Li Meng, who was already in a mess, quickly said.
"Teacher? What happened to you? I haven't said what it is yet."
Li Meng's extreme reaction shocked Su Chen.
Looking at Su Chen's stunned expression, Li Meng realized that she had lost her composure.
"Then, then tell me, what do you want to say to the teacher?”
Seeing this, Su Chen took out his suitcase and placed the 100,000 yuan on the table before pushing it in front of Li Meng.
Li Meng was stunned at first, then she asked nervously,
"Su Chen, where did you get this money?”
"How do you have so much money?”
Li Meng knew about Su Chen's situation.
This child was usually very thrifty in school.
Putting everything else aside, he had never seen this fellow eat snacks in school.
