Teacher Zhou said, “I didn’t show them any kindness, but that woman was a tough nut to crack. However, I am a woman of my word, no matter how difficult the task, I won’t back down. I am more than willing to work for you, Deputy Commander Hu. Just tell me what you need.”

The call was made to Hu Jie’s office. After listening to a lengthy monologue, Hu Jie coldly instructed, “Teacher Zhou, you are a smart person. If you handle this matter well, you will be handsomely rewarded.”

Back at the Director of Moral Education’s office, Director Du returned, arms laden with brand-new textbooks and stationery. Trailing behind her was a young woman, around twenty-five or twenty-six, also carrying new textbooks, stationery, and a few sets of school uniforms. She was likely a teacher who had been asked by Director Du to help carry the items.

“I had some matters to attend to, which took longer than expected. I apologize for the wait,” Teacher Du said. “These are the textbooks, workbooks, stationery, and uniforms for the two children. I brought them here to save you a trip. I apologize for the inconvenience caused by the exam.”

Gu Zi nudged the two children, Su Bing and Su Li, who promptly stepped forward to receive their items from the teacher. They were polite and well-mannered.

Gu Zi then asked, “Thank you for your hard work, teachers. May I know who this teacher is?”

Teacher Du introduced, “This is our school’s new teacher, Teacher Yang, who has just transferred from another city. Despite her young age, she has abundant teaching experience. After all, it’s rare for someone so young to teach at our school. Oh, and she is Su Li’s Chinese teacher.”

Upon hearing the introduction, Su Li politely greeted Teacher Yang and thanked her for helping to carry the items. Gu Zi also got acquainted with Teacher Yang.

Afterward, Teacher Yang escorted Gu Zi and the children out of the administrative building. Once outside, Teacher Yang had other matters to attend to, but she couldn’t help voicing her curiosity, “Su Li’s mom, it seems like you enjoy looking at me?”

Gu Zi, upon being asked, didn’t hide her feelings. From the moment she saw Teacher Yang, she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, but she couldn’t quite put her finger on it.

“I feel like I’ve seen you before, but I can’t quite remember where. Thank you for seeing us out, Teacher Yang. We’ll be on our way now.”

Watching Gu Zi and the children leave, Teacher Yang’s expression turned melancholic. The parent had said she looked familiar. Could it be that she knew her mother? Everyone who knew them said she resembled her mother.

However, she hesitated to ask. After all, the families of the students at this school were all wealthy, without exception. Her mother lived in the countryside; how could she possibly know someone from the city’s upper class?

Upon returning home, Gu Zi packed some newly researched snacks and took her two sons to Grandma Gao’s house to pick up Su Le. She also brought some delicious treats for Grandma Gao.

As expected, Grandma Gao was overjoyed with the snacks Gu Zi brought. She handed the remaining snacks to the maid, instructing her to refrigerate them for Gao Ming to eat later.

Upon learning that Gao Ming had just come back from visiting his parents, Gu Zi didn’t say much, but she felt a pang of sympathy. She had frequent interactions with Grandma Gao’s family and was aware of their circumstances. Gao Ming’s parents were both high-ranking researchers, working on highly classified projects and living in state-assigned residences.

In theory, Gao Ming could have lived with his parents. However, Grandma Gao had mentioned that Gao Ming was quite pitiful. His mother had experienced severe psychological issues after giving birth to him, her first child. Although she eventually recovered through therapy, she never warmed up to Gao Ming.

Gao Ming had never tasted his mother’s milk and was raised on formula and rice porridge. When his mother had her second child, she devoted all her attention to Gao Ming’s younger brother, neglecting Gao Ming even more. Gao Ming’s father, a workaholic who doted on his wife, was a good man, but from Gao Ming’s perspective, the situation was far from ideal.

His mother didn’t care for him and focused solely on his younger brother. This affected his father, who also spent less time with him and favored his younger brother more.

Grandma Gao, feeling sorry for her grandson’s plight, took him in. Gao Ming’s mother didn’t object, and since then, Gao Ming would visit his parents occasionally.

Whenever Gao Ming went to visit, he was usually driven back by his parents’ driver. His parents rarely brought him back themselves. As the days passed, Gao Ming gradually adapted to this lifestyle. However, deep down, he still felt lonely.
