Wandering in the vast darkness

Chapter 74 A Sense of Honor

When the homeroom teacher came in, the parent committee president probably shouted "Stand up!" and the parents all stood up like elementary school students. Yu Wenhao also stood up.

Then everyone shouted like elementary school students, "Good evening, teacher!"

Yu Wenhao joined in the shouting. "Who hasn't been to school? You can learn this stuff so quickly!"

The homeroom teacher said to everyone, "Hello, parents, please have a seat."

Everyone sat down.

The homeroom teacher also sat down, looked at everyone, and paused briefly at the greeting area before asking:

"Have Wang Ruisi's parents come?"

No one answered. Several people turned around and looked at Yu Wenhao. Yu Wenhao then realized that Wang Ruisi was Dian Dian. She had just seen the name posted on the table. How could she have forgotten it? She also blamed herself for her mind wandering as soon as she sat down and thinking about Qianqian.

Yu quickly greeted him, "Coming, coming."

The homeroom teacher looked at him questioningly, and Yu greeted him, saying, "I'm Diandian, oh, Wang Ruisi's uncle."

Dot giggled.

Dian Dian laughed and said, "Thank you, Uncle. I'd like to drink Heytea."

The two entered the store, where dozens of people were queuing. Yu Wenhao noticed that there were still empty seats in the green rest area next door, so she said to Dian Dian:

The parent-teacher meeting began, but there wasn't anything particularly important. Baochuta Experimental School is a direct-entry school from elementary to middle school; even in sixth grade, there's no pressure of the transition from elementary to middle school, let alone for students like Dian Dian who are only in third grade. The parent-teacher meeting was simply the homeroom teacher introducing the class's situation since the last parent-teacher meeting.

Yu Wenhao chuckled and said, "When I was in elementary school, I didn't do very well. I was most afraid of parent-teacher conferences. Every time my mother went to a parent-teacher conference, she would come back and give me a good scolding. My uncle was always on the list of those who were criticized. If he was ever praised, my mother would doubt whether she had heard him correctly."

Yu Wenhao gradually became familiar with the name Wang Ruisi, which was initially unfamiliar. Every teacher would mention Wang Ruisi when praising students, and Wang Ruisi was also on the list of students who ranked first in each subject. This made Yu Wenhao feel proud and truly proud.

The parent-teacher meeting lasted for more than an hour and ended around 8 o'clock. However, the meeting ended with a greeting to the parents. The parents of children with good grades and those of children with poor grades were kept behind by the subject teachers to have individual conversations with them.

Yu Wenhao said, "It seems like they didn't say anything, but I heard them praising you."

"No, no, Master, it's no trouble. I'll walk back myself. Hey, you have to wait for me!"

"Okay, let's go buy Heytea then," Yu Wenhao said.

Yu Wenhao took out her phone, opened Dian Dian's mother's WeChat, and said to her, "The parent-teacher meeting is over, and Dian Dian has already returned home."

"Go find a place to sit over there, I'll order. What would you like to drink?"

An order came in, and Yu Wenhao accepted it. The customer was in the opposite residential area, Songdu New City International Garden. Yu Wenhao wanted to start the car, but then stopped. He remembered that there was still something he hadn't done.

Yu Wenhao was both amused and exasperated. "Yes, yes, you didn't want to bother me and made me wait, but it takes you at least fifteen minutes to walk back from the Jianggan Sports Center."

"Why?" Dot Dot asked curiously.

Yu asked, "Do you want me to come pick you up from the Jianggan Sports Center?"

Dot asked what the teacher said.

Dian Dian told him she wanted to drink grape jelly with lots of meat.

Yu Wenhao said, "Uncle was sitting there, and his face turned red."

As she walked into the residential area, Dian Dian turned around and saw Yu Wenhao still standing there. She waved goodbye to him.

Dian Dian turned around, bowed to Yu, and said, "Thank you, Uncle!"

"Yes, definitely!" Yu Wenhao said. "You made your uncle proud and embarrassed. Your uncle must reward you."

Then she walked into the residential area. When she reached the gate, the security guard saluted her, and she stood up straight and returned the salute with a Young Pioneers salute.

"Ah, you've arrived already? That was fast, Master. I'm still outside, at the Jianggan Sports Center."

Dian Dian had told Yu Wenhao that she and her classmates would wait for him downstairs. When Yu Wenhao came out of the classroom after the parent-teacher meeting, he saw Dian Dian already waiting for him in the hallway outside the classroom.

Yu Wenhao got into the car but didn't start it immediately. Instead, he waited until Diandian called him and said, "Uncle, I'm home." Only then did Yu Wenhao open the app in front of him.

Dian Dian said, "Let's not, Uncle."

Yu Wenhao searched and found that the nearest Heytea store is located in the Guoda City Plaza on Tiyuchang Road.

Yesterday, Dian Dian invited him to the parent-teacher conference. He had wondered if Dian Dian's performance at school wasn't very good, and that's why she didn't want her father to come, afraid the teacher would call her name in front of him. But the teacher did call her name, more than once, but it was always on the honor roll, something to be proud of. What did she have to worry about?

He drove to the National City Plaza, turned in, and parked his car in the parking lot.

After putting down his phone, Yu asked a question before starting the car and driving away.

Dian Dian giggled.

They waited for more than half an hour until they arrived. The two of them went out, got into the car, and Yu Wenhao drove while Dian Dian drank Heytea in the passenger seat. By the time they arrived at MixC Yuefu, Dian Dian had finished her Heytea.

The two got off the bus together. Yu Wenhao took Dian Dian's schoolbag from the back seat and helped her put it on. Yu Wenhao told Dian Dian, "Call me when you get home." Dian Dian said okay.

The homeroom teacher nodded.

Yu Wenhao said, "Okay, I'll wait for you, don't rush."

When Yu arrived at the entrance of Xincheng International Heyuan residential area, he didn't see any guests. He called them, and the guest seemed to be a middle-aged woman who made a big fuss as soon as she answered the phone.

Yu Wenhao felt somewhat confused.

Yu Wenhao sighed as he put the phone back on the shelf.

Thinking this, Yu Wenhao sighed softly again.

The homeroom teacher, who is also a Chinese language teacher, then introduced the situation of her Chinese class. Next, she invited the teachers of other subjects to come in one by one to introduce their respective classes. Each teacher's process was similar: praising a few students, criticizing a few, and mentioning which students consistently failed to hand in homework or whose homework was sloppy, hoping parents could help with tutoring and supervision.

Yu Wenhao felt that there was still more to enjoy. He had performed so well, shouldn't he be rewarded? He asked Dian Dian, "Tell me, what do you want to eat? Uncle will treat you."

At the same time, he thought of Qianqian. He thought that if Qianqian went to school, she would be just like Diandian and Wang Ruisi, so that he could always go with a proud face and make him look good.

The two went downstairs, got into the car, and Yu started the car and drove off.
