Chapter 903 Conflicts in Studying Abroad
Teacher Wei chimed in with a joke: "Teacher Rong can only see Teacher Sheng, but can't she see me?"
Rong Tinglan quickly explained, "That's not it. I just haven't had a chance to greet Teacher Wei yet."
"Teacher Wei is handsome and dashing; he's the center of attention wherever he goes. How could I not see him?"
Teacher Wei chuckled: "I like hearing what you said, but I also know my own limitations."
"I might be considered handsome on my own, but if I were to walk next to Professor Sheng, I'd probably just be his foil wherever we go, wouldn't I?"
Teacher Wei is a person who likes to speak the truth.
Rong Tinglan's smile remained unchanged: "How could that be? Everyone has their own strengths. I don't think Professor Wei is just an accessory to Professor Sheng."
Teacher Wei knew perfectly well how weak her words were.
However, appearance is given by one's parents, and Teacher Wei will not feel inferior because she is not good-looking.
Compared to Sheng Qingyan, he's still quite handsome among a group of ordinary men.
"you're right."
He didn't want to argue with Rong Tinglan at the door.
Can't you see that Qingyan and Shenlu are already getting impatient?
Although the two didn't show it, they were either looking up at the sky or down at the ground, which was quite obvious.
"Well, let's go inside first. It doesn't seem right to block the entrance."
Wan Ruyi also made a timely suggestion.
Rong Tinglan immediately realized that Wan Ruyi's father was still waiting upstairs, so she couldn't stop him any longer.
My uncle is a very meticulous person, except when it comes to doting on his daughter.
If they continue to delay, someone might come down to inquire about the situation.
"Ms. Sheng, Ms. Wei, please." Rong Tinglan then looked at Shen Lu, "And Shen Lu as well."
Shen Lu raised an eyebrow.
She could sense that Teacher Rong's attitude towards her was not as friendly as it was towards Sheng Qingyan and Teacher Wei.
But she didn't think she had any grudges against Teacher Rong.
What's wrong with this teacher? Is she treating her like a rival?
Rong Tinglan did indeed entertain the two teachers, while Wan Ruyi lagged behind, staying with Shen Lu.
Shen Lu asked her, "Wan, does anyone at school know that you and Teacher Rong are cousins?"
"She doesn't look much like you. Are you cousins?"
Actually, if both daughters look like their mother, the cousin will probably look somewhat like her too.
However, Wan Ruyi looks like her father, and Rong Tinglan also looks like her father.
Therefore, when these two walk outside, no one will suspect that they are relatives.
"Yes, her mother is my aunt."
"I heard from relatives that we looked somewhat alike when we were little, but now we each look like our fathers."
"Especially after she grew up, perhaps my cousin blossomed and went abroad to study, she also became more fashionable."
Where did your cousin go to study?
Shen Lu didn't know much about Rong Tinglan.
All I know is that she returned to China to teach after studying abroad, and it's said that her family has connections and is quite well-off.
No wonder she was able to hold onto Sheng Qingyan so tightly; she probably felt that her family background was on par with Sheng Qingyan's.
"Sakura Country."
Wan Ruyi lowered her voice: "Actually, I don't like Japan at all, but my cousin does. She even had a falling out with her family to go study abroad."
"After returning to China, something strange happened. My aunt got drunk one time and had a big fight with my cousin, saying that since she went to Japan, she was no longer my daughter."
"And I want my cousin to return her daughter."
"How could that be? Everyone says my aunt is too paranoid."
“My grandfather died because of the Japanese people, on the battlefield, so he hated the Japanese.”
"In her eyes, her cousin is a traitor."
Wan Ruyi shook her head and sighed.
In fact, families like theirs generally wouldn't agree to their children or grandchildren studying in Japan.
My cousin was also bewitched back then. She secretly applied for a study abroad program and left, not contacting her family for several years.
My aunt must have had mixed feelings of love and hate towards my cousin.
After my cousin returned to China, her relationship with my aunt also became strained.
"Did your aunt say anything similar after that one argument with your cousin?"
Shen Lu found it strange that her daughter insisted on studying in Japan.
This mother is strange. Just because her daughter went to study abroad, does she no longer want to acknowledge her daughter?
Although I don't like Japan, if Rong Tinglan didn't do anything to betray her country for personal gain, she shouldn't have committed any serious crime.
However, Wan Ruyi's aunt seems to be quite wary of Japan, and it's possible that she might sever ties with her daughter.
It seems like being merciful is only to curse someone when you're drunk and arguing.
"No."
Wan Ruyi's expression darkened: "My aunt has passed away."
Shen Lu asked in confusion, "Excuse me, are you sick?"
“A car accident.” Wan Ruyi slammed her fist on the railing in anger. “The truck driver was drunk. You have no idea how badly my aunt suffered.”
Wan Ruyi's biological mother died young, and her aunt treated her like her own daughter since she was a child.
Therefore, her aunt's death was an insurmountable obstacle in Wan Ruyi's heart.
"That's really terrible." Shen Lu didn't know how to comfort Wan Ruyi.
"Your cousin asked you to come along, right?" Shen Lu immediately changed the subject.
Wan Ruyi blinked; she hadn't expected Shen Lu to guess it.
"Did you know that she likes Professor Sheng?"
Wan Ruyi was unaware that although the rumors had circulated in the school for a while, Professor Sheng, being such an aloof and unapproachable teacher, was generally someone no one dared to mess with.
Wan Ruyi's eyes widened dramatically: "No way, you're saying my cousin came here for Professor Sheng?"
"No wonder she dressed up so carefully today."
"However, she and Professor Sheng look quite well-matched."
"If Professor Sheng can be with my cousin, wouldn't my future children be able to have Professor Sheng tutor them?"
Shen Lu was somewhat impressed by her thought process.
"I don't know if your child will be able to do it, but your cousin's child probably has no hope," Shen Lu asserted.
Wan Ruyi asked in surprise, "Why?"
"Professor Sheng doesn't seem to like your cousin very much, can't you tell?"
Meanwhile, Sheng Qingyan and Teacher Wei had already been led into a private room by Rong Tinglan.
Wan's father was on the phone in the private room. When he saw people come in, he immediately said goodbye to the person on the phone.
He came to greet me after I hung up the phone.
"Professor Sheng, Professor Wei, please have a seat."
"I'm so sorry I didn't go down to greet you."
If Mr. Wan were to appear, he would likely be recognized by some people, and he didn't want to cause any trouble.
I just really want to thank the teachers and classmates who helped my daughter.
I also sincerely apologized to them for causing them trouble.
Wan Ruyi's willful nature and carefree lifestyle are inseparable from having a good father.
"Mr. Wan, you're too kind," Sheng Qingyan said calmly.
Teacher Wei was quite talkative and quickly struck up a conversation with Mr. Wan.
Mr. Wan is, after all, the second-in-command in the capital, and his level of education is not low.
As long as you don't get involved in politics, you can talk about almost anything with Teacher Wei.
