The next morning, Song Lingge returned to school alone.

Knowing the place well, they quickly found Fu Wenxin's office.

At this time, Fu Wenxin and Lin Wenxiu were both in the office.

"Song Lingge? What brings you here?" Lin Wenxiu was both surprised and delighted to see Song Lingge.

"Teacher Lin, Teacher Fu," Song Lingge greeted them politely.

"Come in and sit down," Lin Wenxiu said, gesturing for her to sit down and pouring her a glass of water.

Fu Wenxin's expression was indifferent.

Her feelings for Song Lingge were strange. The two initially didn't get along, but they later met by chance in Yuning, cleared up their misunderstandings, and buried the hatchet.

However, Zhou Songmei later attempted suicide, and coincidentally, that incident was related to Song Lingge, leaving her truly exhausted.

Fu Wenxin really didn't want to worry about these students anymore and instinctively wanted to get away.

The class that Fang Guanghua and Zhou Songmei were in was the class that Fu Wenxin devoted the most effort to in her career, but those students broke her heart.

I thought that leaving Yuning would mean we would never meet again, but I never expected to meet him again in Nanzhou. In particular, Nanzhou was also a bad place for me. I really don't know what kind of karmic entanglement we have formed.

Therefore, Fu Wenxin really couldn't get close to Song Lingge, even though she was now a popular figure both inside and outside the school, she didn't want to befriend her.

"Why are you back at school? Is something wrong?" Lin Wenxiu asked warmly.

Song Lingge glanced at Fu Wenxin and said, "I'm here to ask Teacher Fu something."

"What else do you want to ask?" Fu Wenxin's reaction was a bit too much, which startled Lin Wenxiu.

Song Lingge hadn't expected Fu Wenxin to have such a strong opinion of her, so she had no choice but to get straight to the point: "Do you know Meng Zhongkui?"

"Why are you asking him? I don't know him, don't ask me."

Song Lingge felt a little embarrassed; she hadn't even explained anything in detail yet, and Fu Wenxin had already reacted so strongly.

Lin Wenxiu also felt a little awkward. She and Fu Wenxin were colleagues, but Song Lingge was an outstanding student. She didn't want to offend either of them, so she tried to mediate.

“Isn’t Meng Zhongkui a sophomore? I think I have a vague impression of him. Isn’t he also from Yuning? Yuning only has one middle school. How could you not know him?” Lin Wenxiu nudged Fu Wenxin.

Fu Wenxin pouted, but still stubbornly asked, "Why are you asking him?"

“I have reliable information that he was the one who took those nude photos last year, which is why I’m bothering you to find out more about him,” Song Lingge said frankly.

Fu Wenxin and Lin Wenxiu were both startled.

"Is...it true?" Fu Wenxin finally managed to stammer out this question after a long while.

Song Lingge did not answer, but her expression was slightly heavy.

Judging from her expression and her usual demeanor, Fu Wenxin and Lin Wenxiu already knew that Meng Zhongkui was most likely behind this.

Fu Wenxin's face turned even uglier.

The first few years of her career were when she devoted the most effort to her work. At that time, her only thought was to teach outstanding students so that they could serve their country in the future.

In the end, what did all that she sacrificed bring her?

Several outstanding students ran into trouble one after another, and Fu Wenxin was heartbroken by this.

She never minded how much she gave, but she really minded when the effort and the reward were disproportionate.

The incident involving Fang Guanghua and Zhou Songmei was the trigger for her despair, but there was another unknown reason that became the final straw that led her to tearfully leave Yuning.

That was Meng Zhongkui.

If Zhou Songmei's suspension of studies was out of necessity, then Meng Zhongkui's suspension of studies seems incomprehensible.

He suddenly said he wanted to drop out of school, and Fu Wenxin went to his house several times to try to persuade him, but to no avail.

This incident deeply affected Fu Wenxin and was the key reason why she resolutely left Yu Ning.

If one student gets into trouble, it's one thing to blame—it's their own problem. But if a series of problems occur, doesn't that indicate the teacher's incompetence?

Fu Wenxin is trapped in this emotional snare and cannot extricate herself.

“Teacher Fu, Nanjing Foreign Language School is the best university in Nanzhou, and it even ranks among the top in the country. But it can’t guarantee that every student will succeed. These things are not your fault, so you don’t need to blame yourself.”

Song Lingge's voice rang out, and Fu Wenxin's gaze met hers. Meeting her bright eyes, Fu Wenxin felt as if this young girl had seen right through her.

Or is it that all writers are so insightful about people's hearts?

She took a deep breath and said slowly, "Meng Zhongkui, Fang Guanghua, and Zhou Songmei were all classmates in the same year. However, after that incident, Zhou Songmei was expelled from school. I told you about this when you went to Yuning last time."

Song Lingge nodded.

Fu Wenxin continued, "Not long after, Meng Zhongkui suddenly dropped out of school. Neither his parents nor I were able to find out the specific reason, and it remains a mystery to this day."

"What is his relationship with Fang Guanghua and Zhou Songmei?" Song Lingge asked.

“Their grades were all very good, among the top in the class. I told you before, I gave them some extra tutoring back then. I don’t know the specifics of our relationship, but overall it was pretty good.”

Mentioning this incident, Fu Wenxin felt even more regretful. If she had known better, she wouldn't have been so responsible and would have treated all students equally; perhaps this wouldn't have happened.

“Teacher Fu, those are their personal choices. You don’t need to blame yourself for everything.”

Fu Wenxin suddenly raised her head. What was wrong with this girl? Why could she always read her mind?

Meeting her eyes, Song Lingge smiled warmly.

"Teacher Fu, Teacher Lin, I won't bother you any longer, I'll be leaving now." Song Lingge glanced at the time; get out of class was almost over.

To avoid causing unnecessary commotion, it's safer to leave as soon as possible.

"Okay, come back to school often when you have time." Lin Wenxiu saw her to the office door and watched her leave.

Indeed, outstanding people are prone to arousing jealousy.

Lin Wenxiu is different from Fu Wenxin; she greatly admires Song Lingge. Who doesn't like a good student?

To be honest, she felt quite sorry for this girl who had suffered such an unexpected misfortune.

Nude photo scandal, illegitimate daughter scandal, and the recent drugging incident involving Xia Jiaojiao—any one of these could have ruined her, but this girl miraculously survived.

Besides her own upright conduct, Lin Wenxiu believes that it is also related to her proper handling of the situation.

How many students her age can handle these situations so calmly?

Watching her retreating figure, Lin Wenxiu sincerely hoped that those misfortunes could stay far, far away from this girl.

Turning around, Fu Wenxin was still in a daze.

Lin Wenxiu walked over to her and patted her on the shoulder: "She's right. Those things weren't caused by you; they were their own choices."
