Chapter 50: Rain is Nice
Chen Xiongguo didn’t relax his tone.
“Nonsense! Educating students is the responsibility of teachers. What do we need you for?”
He snorted, “Just manage yourself.”
Wen Yu said seriously, “Mr. Chen, you also know that some students, unlike me, don’t dare to talk to you. They just have problems with their face.
There are questions they could directly ask the teacher, but they don’t. They ponder over them for days before solving them. Ugh, it’s frustrating.”
“…”
“Let’s not talk about others, Lu Min is like that.” Wen Yu gave an example, “She’s cold and independent, doesn’t like to ask questions. That’s why her grades fluctuate. How did she improve this time? It’s because we formed a study group together. She had many questions she didn’t understand, and when she asked me, it became clear. This efficiency greatly improved, and naturally her grades went up.”
“…”
“Peng Hui, almost a failing student, where would she dare to ask the teacher about those high school topics? Isn’t that asking for trouble? Her improvement this time was due to Lu Min and Fu Chengque teaching her bit by bit.”
Wen Yu asked softly, “What do you say, Mr. Chen?”
Chen Xiongguo didn’t speak for a while.
Wen Yu finally added, “Besides, Mr. Chen, you say these things are all the responsibility of the teacher. I agree halfway.”
“Why halfway?”
“The other half is because I also hope my good friends, whom I associate with, can progress in their studies, have a good university in the future, achieve something great, or at least not regret not working hard in high school.”
Chen Xiongguo was shaken in his heart, staring blankly at Wen Yu.
At this moment, he felt like this child, in the past two years, deliberately acted naive.
“So, Teacher, I dare not guarantee that I can get them all into the top ten, but I will do my best to help without affecting my own grades. This will definitely be much faster than just being taught by teachers.”
Chen Xiongguo felt he couldn’t listen anymore. He waved his hand, indicating for Wen Yu to leave.
After Wen Yu left, he brewed a cup of strong tea for himself and sipped it slowly.
Actually, everyone knew what Wen Yu said. Students have too many things that are only communicated among students, all kept from teachers and parents. Asking wouldn’t yield any answers.
For example, after Peng Hui’s early romantic incident, she should have been greatly affected. She should have distanced herself from teachers and parents even more. Such students with barriers naturally resist being taught by others. Only friends like Wen Yu and Fu Chengque can help her progress—
or regress.
This time Peng Hui’s grades were able to rise against the odds. Chen Xiongguo dared to say that all the credit goes to Wen Yu and his close friends.
Wen Yu’s request was also worth considering. Helping him maintain the study atmosphere of this small circle, at least the grades of these few people would definitely rise under Wen Yu’s drive and assistance…
But one must be careful,
not to let Wen Yu make mistakes.
Chen Xiongguo began to calculate in his mind, and his face gradually relaxed.
This time, Class Four’s average score has risen significantly. If a few more good grades emerge to pull up the high scores, it will be interesting to compete with Classes One and Two at the end of the term or next term…
***
Wen Yu returned to the classroom and told his little friends, except for Fu Chengque, about his conversation with Chen Xiongguo.
The girls instantly admired Wen Yu, daring to negotiate terms with that stern uncle, showing courage beyond compare.
But there’s no result yet, so they could only wait for now.
In the afternoon, Lou Xuanli sent a message.
【Lou Xuanli】: Boss, it’s settled. You can temporarily leave the rest to me, and I’ll pass it on to the new partner later.
【Lou Xuanli】: The details of the split should be sent in an email later.
【Lou Xuanli】: Hahaha, boss, don’t say it’s hard. Just take the credit, I’ll accept a discount.
【Wen Yu】: You can ask for any discount, I don’t mind.
【Wen Yu】: But my request, you also have to fulfill.
【Lou Xuanli】: Um, suddenly so serious.
【Wen Yu】: In matters of the workplace, I can’t speak with a student’s attitude, right?
【Lou Xuanli】: Boss is right, sincere.
【Wen Yu】: That’s good, tell them, the studio is definitely temporary, and a company will be established in the future.
【Wen Yu】: You guys are the elders.
The cake was drawn first, stabilizing the morale.
About an hour later, Wen Yu’s mailbox received an email from Tencent.
At the bottom was an attachment document. Opening it would preview the traffic split statement, with the following written on top:
Settlement amount: 33602, Violation deduction: 0, Actual settlement (RMB): 33602.
“!!”
Even though Wen Yu was mentally prepared, he was shocked by this amount. Over 30,000 yuan, this is the after-tax split income for the entire account for a little more than a month.
This doesn’t even count the additional advertising revenue, because that part of the money Lou Xuanli actually receives and distributes wages on the go. If there’s a shortage, he takes on more jobs, and if not, he doesn’t.
In reality, nearly 50,000 yuan a month!
Too lucrative, this is way too lucrative.
Wen Yu felt that some things needed to be done in advance, or else it would be very troublesome.
With some wealth now, Wen Yu looked at the gloomy sky, which seemed much brighter and lively, but unfortunately, it was still far from buying a mountain. With this month’s income, he could probably only buy 0.01 of a mountain, which is very far away.
During the evening self-study session, the gloominess couldn’t be contained, and the rain gradually started to fall.
“Oh no, I didn’t bring an umbrella.”
“Do you have an umbrella?” Wen Yu asked quietly.
“Here,” Fu Chengque took out an umbrella from beside the desk and displayed it. “Hehe, someone forgot their umbrella?”
“Two sausages.”
“Wow, deal!”
After the evening self-study session, many parents had already sent umbrellas over in advance.
Wen Yu held Fu Chengque’s umbrella, making sure she didn’t get wet, while watching her eat sausages.
“Do you know? This is the first time we’ve walked together under an umbrella.”
Fu Chengque, biting into the sausage, looked up, seeming to recall, “Seems like it…”
In the end, she smiled, “Then you’re very lucky to walk under the same umbrella as the Empress.”
Wen Yu couldn’t bear to see her talking while biting on a skewer, so he pulled Fu Chengque to stand on the curb and waited for her to finish eating.
At this moment, the rain intensified, pattering down on the umbrella. The rainwater flowed down along the ribs of the umbrella, forming a curtain of rain, encircling the two of them and isolating them from the rest of the world.
Wen Yu stared at the raindrops, lost in thought.
The last time he walked home under an umbrella with Fu Chengque, was it in elementary school?
Did he ever think, back then, that the cheerful girl splashing in the water beside him would gradually drift away, until they were like strangers, with no thoughts of each other?
But in the absurd joke of time, he once again stood beside the girl.
After finishing the sausage, Fu Chengque sniffed, “It’s cold, let’s go back quickly.”
She looked at the bustling crowd, “It’s so late, and raining so heavily, what about those parents who have to come and bring umbrellas? What about those who live far away?”
“Just let the children wait a bit longer, what else can we do?”
“It’s a pity I haven’t become Empress yet, otherwise I could wave my hand and make this rain stop.”
“That’s not how you use ‘朗朗乾坤’.”
“Anyway, as long as it stops raining.” Fu Chengque snorted twice, somewhat smug, “Wen Yu, don’t you believe it? Let me tell you, I definitely can.”
“Then I hope you don’t do that.”
“Huh?”
“Mm.”
Wen Yu looked at the curtain of rain and murmured:
“Rain is quite nice.”
