It's the students' fault if they are too popular.

But her little girl wouldn't do such a thing.

She stood there for a while, and then heard a woman crying from the office inside.

"Teacher, please give him another chance, I beg you..."

"Mom, don't beg him." Shi Renjie's voice was unusually clear. "He just looks down on us."

"You still say that! How can you be so naughty? Apologize to the teacher now!"

"I do not!"

Then, Tong Yao heard a loud slap and the Dean of Academic Affairs' calm voice, as if sentencing:

"You will never amount to anything in the future if you continue like this, I tell you."

The office door was slammed open, and Shi Renjie rushed out angrily, turning around and saying that he had had enough, he was tired of having to look at other people's faces at school, he was tired of being looked down upon by others. He liked the freedom in the game and being admired by others, he felt that what the gangsters said was right, what's the point of studying, isn't it just working for others?

He was going to become a professional player, where he could make money and have fun at the same time. By then, he would have made a lot of money, while those classmates who looked down on him would still be studying and spending their parents' money. At that time, he would appear in front of them triumphantly and slap them in the face!

Tong Yao witnessed this scene and looked towards the office, where only Shi Renjie's crying mother was left.

The Dean of Academic Affairs shook his clothes and came out. Tong Yao hesitated for a moment and asked:

"Director, if I go out to surf the Internet... will I be fired? Is that too severe?"

The director shook his head: "Normally, we wouldn't fire him, but his behavior was too bad. We specifically emphasized the seriousness of this kind of thing, but he still dared to go against the wind and committed the crime without any reverence or remorse. After a joint discussion, we decided to fire him."

Also.

He climbed over the wall to leave after Director Zhang’s radio speech, which was a slap in the face of the school.

So, the matter ended in a mess. For the teacher, this was just a clichéd story of a good student falling from grace, just like a doctor is used to seeing birth, aging, illness and death.

Human sorrows and joys are not interlinked.

When Jiang Yiming saw the criticism notice, he felt a chill down his spine and suddenly couldn't breathe.

He knew very well how Shi Renjie got here step by step.

Shi Renjie was expelled from school by them.

At this moment, Shi Renjie's shortcomings seemed to have disappeared. He only remembered that Shi Renjie had good grades and a bright future. His joke was like a small migratory bird that crashed into a plane with great ambitions, or like a small slingshot that shot through the wings of a young eagle.

Shi Renjie is proud, even conceited. He can challenge others, concentrate on his own work, and think he is right. He is like a tortoise, ugly and slow, not as fast as the diligent rabbits, but still faster than some lazy ones. Although he is physically fragile, he carries a heavy shell called pride and struggle, which protects himself tightly.

But one day, he broke out of his shell. He was tricked out of his shell by a prank carefully planned by several boys. Without the protection of his shell, he was exposed to the temptations of the outside world. Without the weight of his shell, he suddenly found it so easy. Since there was a shortcut, why should he carry on with such a heavy burden?

Perhaps only many years later, when he encounters wind and rain, will he miss the bulky but reliable shield that he discarded.

Jiang Yiming, Xu Hao and others were silent throughout the evening study session.

They feel like they may have ruined someone else's life.

With Shi Renjie's grades, he was in the top 99.5 in No. Middle School and in the top in the province, which was better than % of the students.

The heavy sense of guilt made them breathless.

They dared not log into Xiaocha's QQ account again, as they could see their own sinful side through her QQ account. As a result, Xiaocha became a gray avatar that no longer flickered, burying this past event.

There is no more abrupt and loud recitation in the class's morning reading. Everyone was a little uncomfortable with it for a while. They looked at the seat and found it empty. The books were still piled on the table without anyone cleaning it up. The open notebook was written with great care.

Everyone understood that Shi Renjie had really given up studying.

After school in the evening, Ruan Qian carried her schoolbag and walked past the playground, looking towards the corner where the wall was the lowest.

I don't know when those broken spikes were replaced, and probably no one will dare to flip over it from now on.

She thought that no one felt good about Shi Renjie being fired.

——Maybe Shi Renjie himself is willing.

She didn't want Jiang Yiming and Xu Hao to be devastated, nor did she want them to be unmoved and become indifferent.

She could have dissuaded them earlier, and no one would have been hurt. As for Shi Renjie looking at her, she could tell the teacher, and she believed the teacher would not ignore it.

If... Unfortunately, there is no if.

It’s not such a pity.

She stopped walking towards the dormitory and turned to Teacher Tong's dormitory. She suddenly wanted to see Teacher Tong very much. She wanted to paint and study simply, but the world was very complicated.

She ran to Teacher Tong's door and rang the doorbell, but no one answered. She pursed her lips, feeling frustrated - Teacher Tong was probably still working in the office, and she came at a very unfortunate time.

She wanted to leave, but heard a conversation in the corridor.

Coming from above, the footsteps are coming downstairs.

"Yaoyao, are you in a relationship? You are so beautiful, there must be a lot of people chasing after you."

"Ahaha... No."

"No way?"

"Well, I don't plan on falling in love for now."

The little girl bit her lip, feeling aggrieved. She stood stupidly at the door, listening to the footsteps getting closer.

"The dormitory in our school is really nice. I didn't expect it to be so big."

"Yes, I didn't know that when I came here, I was shocked. The salary at No. 1 Middle School is good, promotions are stable, and the provident fund is high. Except for the high pressure, everything is pretty good."

"Haha, then Yaoyao, when you have time, please teach me how to get along with students. I feel like they like and respect you, and I want to be like you."

"Thank you for the compliment... Well, no need to send me off. I'll be leaving first. Feel free to ask me any questions you have."

While chatting and laughing, Tong Yao said goodbye to Lou Huan, went down to their own floor, and then froze.

"Soft?"

The sensor light was on, she saw the little girl's red eyes and asked hurriedly:

"What's going on?" She said as she opened the door, "Come in first, it's cold outside."

When the little girl came in, she turned around and asked softly:

"What's the matter."

The little girl raised her head, full of grievance:

"Teacher Tong, are you not in a relationship?"

Tong Yao was startled, then realized that she was uncomfortable with this. So, she explained in a low voice:

"If I say yes, Mr. Lou will definitely ask for specific information, and then it will be troublesome if other teachers know about it. Besides... we are not officially in a relationship."

"Doesn't it count?" The little girl was almost crying.

"Let's do the math," Tong Yao immediately changed the subject, "You're my girlfriend, is that okay?"

"What about the older girlfriend?"

"It's you too. It's you when you grow up."

The little girl burst into laughter and said, "Teacher Tong is so cunning."

"It's just to coax you..." Tong Yao pinched her face.

Ruan Qian was still not satisfied, so she gently hugged Tong Yao and said:

"Teacher Lou has only been here for half a month, and you can already call you Yaoyao..."

"How can that be the same? Yaoyao is called by peers and elders."

"But isn't a girlfriend a peer? Isn't a wife a peer?" the girl argued.

Nursery rhyme: “…” Why does this child think so far ahead?

That makes a lot of sense.

"You little rascal." She complained.

"Rumor."

"You're yelling again, little brat?"

"Rumors, rumors, rumors."

"I……"

"Teacher Tong." The little girl had shouted enough and quickly changed her words.

Tong Yao was depressed and felt like she had no place to put her energy.

"Aren't you going back to the dormitory?" she asked.

Ruan Qian leaned back on the sofa, hugged the pillow and turned to look at her:

"I don't want to go back."

have to.

Tong Yao silently picked up the phone and called the dormitory supervisor.

"Yes, yes. Sorry for bothering you, Ruan Qian won't be staying in the dormitory today."

The little girl lay there looking at her and laughing secretly.

Tong Yao put away the phone, sat next to Ruan Qian, and asked:

"Tell me, is there something that makes you unhappy, huh?"

The little girl moved and slowly rested her head on her legs. There was plenty of time at night, enough for her to finish telling her about what had happened recently. Jiang Yiming's jokes, Shi Renjie's paranoia, her own indifference...

There is also a useless ending.

She was confused and didn't know how to get along with the world.

Tong Yao stroked the little girl's hair, thought for a moment, and said softly:

“Do you know Kodak film?

“It pushed itself to the extreme, and until the day it went bankrupt, the quality of the films it produced was very good, but everyone switched to digital cameras, and it was no longer compatible with the world.

"Like Shi Renjie, he is very good at studying, but if he wants to be recognized by others and chase girls, he needs to conform to the world and live like everyone else."

If Shi Renjie is Kodak film, then Ruan Qian is a bystander consumer, and Jiang Yiming and others are digital cameras. Of course, Jiang Yiming and others are not as innocent as digital cameras, and Shi Renjie is not as good as Kodak. Shi Renjie will come into contact with online games sooner or later, and online love is actually only a small part of the reason for Shi Renjie's fall.

These may all be fallacies.

Anyway, she just wanted to comfort the little girl in her arms.

Chapter 106: A Beautiful Girl in a Golden House

"Anyway," Tong Yao pinched the little girl's nose in her arms, "you don't have to take it to heart. Everyone has their own choices. You may not know that Shi Renjie was blinded by games, and he is happy to leave school now."

Ruan Qian closed her eyes and faced Tong Yao's belly, with a faint bite mark on her lower lip:

"Then...will the school punish Xu Hao and the others?"

"Punishment?" Tong Yao laughed. "If they tell the school that they pretended to be girls to trick their classmates into having an online relationship, they might be criticized. The school might not even bother to deal with such matters, and will probably let Teacher Li handle it himself."

The little girl chuckled. This heavy thing sounded funny for some reason.

She twisted her body, raised her head, and whispered in the dim light:

"I want to sleep with Teacher Tong tonight."

Tong Yao lowered her head in astonishment, then pinched the little devil who was getting too greedy.

"Ah, Teacher Tong, it hurts!"

The little girl screamed twice, hugged her, her eyes wet, "I just said we can sleep together... nothing else..."

"You want to be beaten." Tong Yao said toughly, but her heart was softer. She rubbed the place where the little girl was pinched by her just now. "The quilt was too thick last winter. I just changed it for you for the spring quilt and sheets. It's so tiring to put on the quilt by myself."

After all, she has never been dexterous since she was a child.

Ruan Qian was stunned for a moment, the scar healed and she forgot the pain, and asked:
