The two girls' expressions were right in front of her. Teacher Yue bent down, leaning her body towards Mengmeng, and asked, "Mengmeng, do you like Teacher Yue?"

Mengmeng nodded.

"Since you like him, do you also believe in Teacher Moon?"

Mengmeng nodded again.

Tangtang looked at Teacher Yue Liang with a puzzled expression, not understanding why she had suddenly turned her question into whether she liked Tian Tian when she clearly wanted to know why Tian Tian was in a bad mood.

Faced with two questions unrelated to the previous topic, Mengmeng's eyes also showed confusion.

Teacher Moon withdrew her outstretched body and spoke gently, "You trust me, so if you have anything that makes you unhappy, wouldn't you also be willing to tell Teacher Moon? If Teacher Moon knows, she will see how to help you solve it."

Can Teacher Moon really solve this?

Mengmeng stared at Teacher Yue's face with her bright eyes for several minutes without saying a word, and neither did Teacher Yue.

Tangtang looked on with a puzzled expression, her gaze shifting between Mengmeng and Teacher Yue Liang.

Were they frozen in place?

The hands resting on their knees were itching to reach out and touch them.

"Mengmeng, what's your decision?" Teacher Yue guided Mengmeng step by step.

Her mouth opened, and after a few seconds, she thought, "Why bother?" A few more seconds passed, and Mengmeng opened it again, repeating this back and forth. Dejected, she lowered her head and stared at her toes.

Even if she told Teacher Yue Liang, how could she change the situation? It's only natural that Mom and Dad love Tian Tian; after all, Tian Tian is their biological daughter, not her.

"Mengmeng?" Teacher Yueyue became anxious when she saw that Mengmeng's mood was even worse than before.

Tangtang reached out and grabbed Mengmeng, gently shaking her body. "Mengmeng?"

Faced with their calls, Mengmeng tried to adjust her heavy mood, but she found that even if she tried not to think about it, she still couldn't show a happy appearance.

After some adjustment, she forced a bitter smile.

A smile was even uglier than a cry. Tangtang held Mengmeng's hand with heartache, blinking hard to keep the tears from falling.

When Teacher Yue saw that she had failed to improve Mengmeng's mood and had only made it worse, she became even more flustered.

She stood up from her chair, waving her hands helplessly in front of her. "Mengmeng, don't be sad. If you don't want to talk about it, Teacher Yue will not force you. But there's one thing: if you're really feeling bad, don't hold it in. Come to Teacher Yue's office, okay?"

Mengmeng looked up, her gaze falling on Teacher Yue's gentle and loving eyes.

She had seen that look in Ruolan's mother's eyes before. But later, she gave it to Tiantian.

Quickly averting her gaze, Mengmeng nodded reluctantly.

Teacher Yue withdrew her hand. "Alright, class is about to start. You two go back to the classroom."

"Goodbye, Teacher Moon!" Tangtang waved politely.

After everyone left, Teacher Yue looked at the chair that Mengmeng had just sat on, took out her phone, hesitated for a moment, and then decided to call Ruolan.

The phone rang for a long time before Ruolan answered it.

Ruolan was preparing snacks in the kitchen when Aunt Xue took her phone from the living room sofa.

Seeing the unfamiliar number displayed on the screen, Aunt Xue hesitated for a moment before reaching out and knocking on the kitchen glass door. "Madam, your phone is ringing."

Ruolan was too focused to notice Aunt Xue calling her name from outside the door.

She knocked again, but there was still no response. Aunt Xue then opened the glass door, held up her phone, and went into the kitchen.

"Ah~"

Suddenly a figure appeared behind her, and Ruolan was so startled that she dropped the cake base in her hand to the ground.

"I'm so sorry, Madam. I called you from outside, but you were too focused to hear me. I saw the phone kept ringing, so I came to find you," Aunt Xue explained in a fluster.

The ringing was still echoing in her ears. Ruolan looked at the cake base that had fallen to the ground and said, "It's okay, give me the phone."

Aunt Xue quickly handed over the phone.

The unfamiliar number on the screen didn't tempt Ruolan to answer. But when it kept ringing, she finally picked up.

Upon hearing that the phone was answered, Teacher Yue Liang on the other end of the line instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hello, Mengmeng's mom, this is Teacher Yue Liang. I apologize for calling so suddenly."

"Teacher Moon?" Ruolan thought for a moment and asked, "Is something wrong with Tiantian at school?"

"It's not Sweetie, it's Cute." After saying that, Teacher Yue looked up at the clock hanging on the wall. "Do you have time now? Would it be convenient for you to come to the hospital?"

Ruolan looked at the unfinished cake in front of her and said, "I'm sorry, I'm very busy right now and can't come over. If there's anything, please talk to me on the phone."

Upon hearing these words, Teacher Moon was greatly surprised.

In the past, the Gu family would rush over almost immediately when it came to anything related to Mengmeng. Why was their reaction different today?

Teacher Yue, fearing she hadn't explained herself clearly, spoke again: "Mengmeng's mother, it's a long story, and it's probably not easy to explain over the phone."

Ruolan, preoccupied with the unfinished dessert in front of her and watching the time tick by, said, "I'm sorry, Teacher Yue Liang, I'm really busy right now. If it's not clear over the phone, let's talk again another day when I take Tian Tian to school."

After saying that, Ruolan hung up the call and tossed her phone aside.

After cleaning up the cake base on the floor, Aunt Xue looked at Ruolan with a puzzled expression, who seemed unaffected by the phone call.

what happened?

After breakfast, this family seemed to be under a spell. Why did everyone suddenly focus their attention on Tian Tian?

Unable to understand, she dared not try to fathom her master's thoughts.

After leaving the kitchen, Aunt Xue shook her head and turned to leave the living room.

In the school office, Teacher Yue stared blankly at the page that had been hung up.

Is Mengmeng so worried today because her family no longer loves her?

But that shouldn't be the case. Mengmeng is so well-behaved and cute, why isn't she loved anymore?

After thinking it over for a while, she let out a long sigh.

Sighs echoed in the office, and the other teachers who hadn't gone to class but were still preparing lessons at their desks looked up at Teacher Yue Liang.

"Moon, why are you sighing all of a sudden? Did some of the kids in the class have a fight?" The teacher next to me asked curiously, her arm propped on the partition we shared.

Looking away from her phone, Teacher Yue glanced at her colleague and let out a long sigh.

She thought the phone call would solve the problem, but after the call, she felt even more upset.
