Chapter 97: Whose Fault

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After thinking about it carefully, Wen Nian realized that her parents’ attitude towards Wei Feng seemed to have always been distant.

Her parents didn’t take the initiative to befriend Wei Feng, but whenever they saw Wei Feng, they remained courteous and polite. If she hadn’t insisted on marrying Wei Xiao back then, the two families might not have interacted much at all.

Wen Nian found this attitude to be rather peculiar. Based on Wei Feng’s nostalgic tone in the past, it seemed that the Wei family and her own family had a close bond. This was evident from her grandfather’s willingness to risk his life to save Wei Feng.

After their reunion, even if his father initially felt a slight distance from the elder whom he hadn’t seen in a long time, such an attitude wouldn’t persist unless there was something more to this elder’s character that wasn’t as kind as it appeared.

Furthermore, her father and Wei Xiao’s father had been friends since their youth. However, Wei Xiao’s father had mysteriously vanished ever since Wei Feng tracked them down. They didn’t even show up at the engagement banquet, which was exclusively attended by close family members.

It was rumored that after his wife’s death, he became engrossed in consuming vegetarian meals and reciting Buddhist scriptures, yet he didn’t become a monk. Even the engagement between his son and the daughter of his long-time friend couldn’t compel him to make an appearance. He seemed almost ethereal, like a mythical being.

Wen Nian felt as though she was trapped in a fog, with Wei Feng holding the thread that could guide her out.

Wen Nian’s mind was in turmoil, and although she couldn’t pinpoint the exact reasons, she was certain that the Wei family was not to be trusted. She believed that the only way to protect her family from the impending ruin she had experienced in her previous life was by dismantling the Wei Corporation, which had provided support to Wei Feng and Wei Xiao.

In the end, Wen Nian found solace in focusing on her studies, determined to secure admission to a prestigious school and build connections with the elite. After splashing her face with cold water, she returned to her bedroom to resume studying other subjects. She decided to leave physics for later and planned to directly approach Wen Yu for assistance in understanding the subject that night.

As night descended, the tension within the Wen household escalated. Wen Nian’s frustration intensified as she perceived Wen Yu’s lack of teaching skills, while Wen Yu, in turn, grew increasingly exasperated with Wen Nian’s apparent inability to grasp the subject matter.

Wen Nian gazed at the concepts she had recently grasped, feeling a profound sense of melancholy. “I’ve come to realize that you have a tendency to overcomplicate simple questions while teaching.”

Wen Yu chuckled in disbelief and responded, “You claim that we share the same biological mother, yet I’m still puzzled. Why is your understanding so distinct from mine? I’ve simplified the explanations as much as I could. Didn’t I break it down for you like this before we joined the competition tuition class? It seemed to work fine back then, but now it doesn’t. Who do you believe is at fault, you or me?”

Wen Nian opened her mouth to retort, but she suddenly realized that Wen Yu was telling the truth.

There exist various teaching methods, which is why the term “great teachers” exists. It’s not necessarily true that those with excellent grades will automatically excel at teaching. The art of teaching requires its own set of skills and approaches, and it is crucial to pay attention to these aspects as well.

Shen Jun employed a teaching method that involved summarizing complex concepts and then simplifying them for better understanding. He had a knack for breaking down difficult points into more accessible explanations. Throughout his teaching, he placed particular emphasis on reinforcing fundamental concepts to ensure a solid foundation of understanding.

Wen Yu, on the other hand, had a contrasting teaching approach. He tended to overlook many basic details and instead focused on explaining core theoretical knowledge directly. Consequently, when Wen Nian couldn’t rely on her own ability to connect related concepts, she would find herself struggling to grasp a comprehensive understanding. This often led to arguments between the siblings, exacerbating the discord between them.

After contemplating the situation, Wen Nian let out a sigh. She came to realize that she belonged to the hardworking type rather than the naturally talented type. Without the guidance of a skilled teacher to aid her comprehension, she found herself easily getting stuck at certain points.

Despite their frustrations, Wen Nian and Wen Yu acknowledged that they had no other option at the moment. They understood the importance of addressing the gaps in their physics knowledge and agreed to seek Wen Yu’s assistance. Determined to overcome their difficulties, they resumed their study session, focusing on other subjects before turning their attention to physics.

Early on Monday morning, Wen Yu rode his bike, with Wen Nian as his passenger, to their destination.

As Wen Nian caught sight of Shen Jun at the school gate, she hesitated, contemplating whether to greet him. However, before she could make a decision, Wen Yu, recognizing Shen Jun, purposefully accelerated on his bicycle, swiftly passing by in the blink of an eye.

Wen Nian, startled by the sudden increase in speed, instinctively clung onto Wen Yu’s waist to maintain her balance. She voiced her complaint, “Why did you ride so fast? You nearly threw me off the bike!”

Wen Yu, with a penchant for making snarky remarks, swiftly retorted, “Well, maybe it would be perfect for you to be thrown off, so you can have all the freedom to greet him as you wish!”

As Wen Yu thought about Shen Jun’s presence, he turned his head slightly and cautioned Wen Nian, “Wen Nian, I’m warning you. Focus on your studies and avoid getting involved in relationships at such a young age!”

Wen Nian rolled her eyes in response. “We’re just classmates. Don’t make baseless accusations!”

Wen Nian, infuriated by Wen Yu’s comment, swiftly jumped off the bike and playfully landed a few light hits on him. Filled with anger, she stormed off towards the school building. Meanwhile, Wen Yu parked the bike in the designated area with a mischievous smile on his face. He then strolled along the road, making his way towards the Year Three school building located at the back.

Shen Jun looked at the two of them fooling around and took a deep breath. He walked towards the classroom..
