The homeroom teacher finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that now you should definitely tell your son to break up with your friend’s daughter.
However, the next moment, she saw Gu’s mother laughing heartily, pointing at Gu Zhihan and saying, "You actually have a day where you perform poorly in exams, ah hahaha..."
From childhood to now, this was the first time she had seen him score so low.
Homeroom teacher: "???"
"Mrs. Gu, why are you laughing when your son has scored so poorly?" If she didn’t know that Mrs. Gu was mentally sound, she would have thought this woman must have escaped from some psychiatric hospital.
Mrs. Gu coughed lightly, quickly reverting to her usual composure, "It’s nothing, it’s nothing. Actually, I think a drop in exam grades isn’t necessarily all because of puppy love. It could be due to emotional instability, after all, teenagers are very sensitive. So, to blame the drop in grades solely on puppy love would be too unfair!"
"So you mean to say, you aren’t planning to make them break up?" Gu Zhihan’s homeroom teacher was almost in tears.
Thinking back on her decades of being a homeroom teacher, she had never encountered such parents.
"Of course not!" Mrs. Gu shook her head seriously.
She had regarded Mengmeng as her future daughter-in-law since she was a child, and now that her future daughter-in-law was dating her son, she was too busy playing matchmaker to even consider breaking them up.
"Forget it..." The homeroom teacher felt like she was casting pearls before swine and waved her hands in resignation, "Since the parents aren’t concerned, I won’t interfere either."
After finishing her words, she turned to look at Jiang Yibai, who stood aside, "Jiang Yibai, what’s your excuse then?"
Since she couldn’t persuade Gu Zhihan to return to the experimental class, she could only try her luck with him now.
"I... I..." Jiang Yibai thought for a while and finally came up with an excuse, "I felt a lot of pressure being in the experimental class, always worried about being surpassed by others. This caused me a lot of mental anguish, which is why I didn’t do well. Teacher, please don’t try to dissuade me, I want to leave the experimental class to get some peace of mind."
The homeroom teacher was speechless.
"Fine, just do as you please." The homeroom teacher, out of frustration, simply gave up on the both of them.
After leaving the office, Gu Zhihan’s parents and Luo Mengmeng’s parents went back first.
Luo Mengmeng then pulled Gu Zhihan aside, "Why would you intentionally score low without consulting with me first?"
"Would you have agreed if I had consulted you?" Gu Zhihan said as he reached out to brush the snowflakes from her hair.
Luo Mengmeng instinctively shook her head.
Although she really wished to be in the same class as him, she would never want it to be achieved in this manner.
"That’s why I took action first and reported later!" Gu Zhihan smiled and lightly patted her head.
"You’re really trying to drive me crazy!" Luo Mengmeng gave him an annoyed look.
"Isn’t it all because I want to be in the same class as you?" Gu Zhihan wrapped his arms around her, his finely chiseled chin resting on her forehead, his voice laced with a hint of grievance, "How can this be considered making you angry?"
"Fine, fine, I shouldn’t have been harsh with you." Luo Mengmeng, unable to resist his whiny tone, quickly stood on tiptoe and soothingly stroked his head, "It’s just that I feel guilty for you giving up the experimental class because of me..."
After all, the experimental class at A High School had the city’s top teachers in every subject and boasted the best educational resources.
