Quick Transmigration: Leisure

Chapter 492 The Commoner Teacher at the Noble Academy 7

In early September,

Campus life is fast-paced and hectic.

It seems that all the activities and tasks came at once, including tests for both new and experienced teachers.

However, Xia Youmi only needed to submit one of his stock paintings to pass the test; it was so-so, neither outstanding nor at the bottom of the list.

The new campus life will last for about ten days, after which the freshmen who have broken the ice will usher in a camp training program focusing on physical fitness.

This,

It's the place where most of the early plot unfolds.

Fortunately, with professionals leading the team and the class monitor and students' parents taking charge, the class advisor only needed to stay at school to oversee things and occasionally check on those who were forced to stay in the college.

After the two-and-a-half-week special training ends, the next milestone is Zhuo Gao's fiftieth birthday. Only when the male and female leads clash again at this birthday banquet, and foreshadowing is laid with several male supporting characters, will the storyline between Xia Youmi and the female lead begin.

Considering there's still a long protection period ahead, Xia Youmi has been in a good mood lately.

Besides, he still didn't give Zhuo Yi a friendly look.

Since her true self has not been affected by the heavy perception left by the childhood trauma, and is no longer the sensitive emotion that he needs to protect closely, then if emotions and identity are both negative for the future.

Xia Youmi might choose to end things decisively.

The dilemma of whether pity outweighed true love—these were the soft spots that had troubled and pained Teacher Xia—naturally dissipated as her consciousness returned.

As for Zhuo Yi's feelings and the necessary compensation, we'll have to see him in person to know.

The description of the development of the relationship between the two brothers in the original text is not clear. They are usually brought out for a stroll when needed.

Therefore, it depends on whether one is forced to give up freedom or voluntarily chooses to be obedient.

Whether Zhuo Yi tacitly approved or promoted it, Xia Youmi needs to actually spend time with him to judge.

......

"Knock Knock-"

"Please come in."

"Teacher Xia, this is the list of those who will be absent from this special training."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Gu." Xia Youmi stood up and took the few thin pages of paper, her smile genuine. She always admired people who could organize chaotic and complex matters.

Even the forms that Gu Chenglian submitted were exceptionally well-formatted.

During the meeting, after seeing Xia Youmi's ease and composure, Gu Cheng stopped testing the young class teacher's limits.

He returned to his normal routine, regularly reporting his progress to his teachers like a regular freshman.

However, in just a few short times, Gu Cheng's impression of his teacher changed again.

Teacher Xia is someone who doesn't like to wield much power.

even,

The more thoroughly Gu Cheng controlled things, the happier she became, genuinely happy that he was reliable. At the same time, she wouldn't fall behind; when it was more appropriate to personally intervene, Xia Youmi would never back down.

Therefore, Gu Cheng understood Brother Zhuo's choice of marriage.

This is someone you won't feel tired of being around, and who won't do anything foolish.

Compared to being good at socializing and dealing with the wives' group, Gu Cheng would rather choose a life that is easy and carefree.

He knew that Zhuo Xuan's mother was very capable and well-known in the industry.

Can,

Most people can't learn this kind of shrewdness.

Often, what seems like being pampered and given extra opportunities by men is actually a huge bargain, but it usually comes with a deep pitfall.

However, most people just swallow their failures and no one will publicize them.

Only then can one create an outwardly refined and glamorous composure.

"Tch." Just thinking about how he patiently accompanied his mother in social interactions and witnessed all sorts of ridiculous situations made Gu Cheng feel utterly disgusted.

But he was bound by this bloodline and had no choice but to do it.

"Huh? Gu Cheng?" Xia Youmi asked, her eyes still on Gu Cheng, as she flipped through the absence list. "So Gu Cheng is also temporarily absent. Is there anything I can do to help with leading the team?"

Compared to the detailed reports from other students, Gu Cheng's reason for absence was simply two words—personal leave.

This was unexpected.

“Yes, Teacher Xia, I have asked Zhuo Xuan to help take on the role of team leader,” Gu Cheng said calmly, lowering his eyelashes.

"I see." Xia Youmi wasn't surprised. "Will the scheduling be changed then?"

This question concerns the communication between Xia Youmi and Zhuo Xuan regarding the camp and academy during the special training period: should Gu Cheng act as an intermediary, or should they connect directly?

It could have been assumed that direct communication would be the norm.

But out of respect for the future president, Xia Youmi didn't hesitate to say one more thing.

Gu Cheng knows his classmates much better than the young class advisor who has only seen their materials.

"Teacher Xia, I will help coordinate. If I am unable to provide timely feedback, please take care of me."

"Of course." Xia Youmi nodded approvingly.

After the conversation ended, Gu Cheng should have left, but he suddenly felt like asking another question.

"teacher......"

"Do you have any other questions?"

"You mean, you'll be attending the birthday banquet in two weeks, right?" For some reason, Gu Cheng's original question took a different turn, and he asked about their identities that they hadn't revealed.

"Ok?"

"I apologize if I have offended you."

"No, it's okay, Gu. You and Zhuo Xuan are childhood friends, it's normal." Xia Youmi said matter-of-factly.

Gu Cheng was also thrown into disarray by the fact that he was going to give up his special training and go with his mother to the world of fame and fortune that he disliked. He almost asked Xia Youmi about it.

How can you judge someone to be true to their word after only meeting them a few times?

Gu Cheng did not want to be misled.

If, if it were just that her skill in deceiving people was deep enough that even the outstanding Zhuo Yi could be fooled, and a true love story would develop that would surprise, yet secretly envy, those in the know within the industry.

Gu Cheng believed in the possibility of good things, but the probability of that happening was too small. His upbringing and understanding taught him that gambling on a low-probability victory was never a wise move.

Therefore, he cannot reveal even the slightest weakness or flaw.

With his philandering and capricious artist father and his naive mother who could never learn to be truly clever.

After her grandmother passed away, they could only rely on Gu Cheng's judgment; if he made a mistake, the family would fall into ruin.

I've witnessed that feeling countless times in my mother's words; it's simply unbearable.

He lacked the resilience and tenacity of the person before him in his childhood. Having lost both parents, he had endured years of hardship before finally getting, or rather, gambling on, an opportunity to climb out of the mire and return to the glamorous battlefield. And who knows if the glamorous facade, wrapped in honey, was truly real?

Based on what Gu Cheng heard from Zhuo Xuan or what he saw from his mother, Ms. Wei Youzhen, it remains to be seen whether Teacher Xia will continue to live such a pleasant life.

"I see."

"I will attend, and I think Gu will go too."

"Ah."

"Then, see you at the birthday banquet."

"it is good."
