Reborn into a Farming Family: My 18 Virtuous Wife is a Hero

Chapter 35 If Money Can't Solve the Problem, Use Power 3

In the classroom, Su Mu rested his chin on his hand, staring blankly out the window. His thin face was slightly wrinkled, and the half of his face that was exposed showed obvious worry and regret.

Thinking of how her parents insisted she come to school so as not to delay her studies, she felt a tightness in her chest. The nicer they were to her, the more she would subconsciously recall the scenes of her parents being bullied in her past life. She didn't dare to stand up for them, always thinking that her parents would surely forgive her because they loved her so much... But after each attempt to comfort herself, she would cowardly hide in her room, bury her face in the blanket, and sob, afraid that her loud crying would attract a new round of harsh words from her mother.

She pressed her forehead and shook her head, trying to shake off everything from her previous life. Having learned a bloody lesson, in this life... she would never let anyone insult her parents.

Finally, feeling frustrated, she muttered softly, "I wonder how Dad is doing... sigh..."

"Su Mu!"

"Su Mu!"

With a loud "bang!", Su Mu was forced to snap out of his daze and shift his gaze from the extra book on the table to the history teacher standing in front of him with furrowed brows.

A sense of foreboding washed over her. The history teacher, "Qu Li," was thirty years old, a married woman, and her husband was the principal's eldest son's wife. Well... that's how she became the only history teacher in the school who got in through connections, despite only having a junior high school diploma and not a high school diploma. Fortunately, she didn't mislead the students, and her history lesson plans were decent enough, otherwise she would have been complained about by the students' parents long ago.

However, because of this semi-hidden identity, she was ruthless to everyone at school except for students from families she couldn't afford to offend. Getting into her hands was like living hell, which earned her the nickname "Iron Lady".

Before she could speak, the head of the teaching department knocked on the door and came in.

"Director? Is there something you need?" Qu Li asked, puzzled.

The head of the teaching department nodded slightly.

Who is Su Mu?

……

Principal room.

Listen to the principal, who was over fifty years old and had a big face and a thick waist, sipping tea and talking at length.

Su Mu listened attentively the whole time, his face expressionless, before finally speaking calmly, "The principal means I should drop out?!" He condensed the principal's long speech into a concise summary.

Seeing that Su Mu had cleverly understood the original meaning of his words, the principal nodded approvingly, "That's right. Since Su Mu's grades have been at the bottom for several semesters, after discussion at the school meeting, we hope that Su Mu will obey the school's decision and withdraw from school as soon as possible."

After speaking, she seemed to think that the other person was just a child and that this was a bit too much for her. Moreover, since the incident was urgent, she did not call the parents. Thinking of this, she felt a little pity.

"However, if Su Mu can achieve a top-three ranking in the school's written exam next year, he will still have the opportunity to re-enroll, so Su Mu doesn't need to be too sad."

Su Mu chuckled at this, thinking that even if she ranked in the top three, she probably still wouldn't have a chance of getting into the university.

"Is this the vice mayor's idea?"

Su Mu spoke, his voice filled with doubt yet undeniable certainty, causing the principal, who had just swallowed a mouthful of bitter tea, to choke on it, unable to swallow it or spit it out. His face turned bright red, and it took him a while to recover.

Looking at Su Mu with suspicion, she slowly recalled Su Mu's behavior from the moment she entered the office until now. How could a fourteen-year-old girl be so calm, even frighteningly calm, without her parents' company? She succinctly revealed the deepest secret: Is this... really the stupid student that all the teachers talk about?!
