“Hey, why are you in such a hurry? The teacher is not a tiger, she won’t eat us. Let’s find out what happened first…”
When they left the school gates, Xia Xu was dragging Tang Youxin, but when they went back, it was the opposite.
After running for a while, Xia Xu resisted a little and Tang Youxin could not move, only then did she let go of her hand.
“It’s over, it’s all your fault.”
Tang Youxin wanted to cry but no tears came out. She hugged her head and squatted down. She even spoke with a sobbing tone.
“Stop, stop, stop, don’t cry yet, what is over? Explain clearly!”
Xia Xu was still a little confused.
“Ms. Liu must have thought that we were in love, otherwise… otherwise she wouldn’t have…”
Tang Youxin’s words gave Xia Xu a headache.
Before he could change his mindset, he really forgot that the ‘beautiful school life’ had a major crime like puppy love.
He didn’t think it was a big deal to be in a relationship, but Tang Youxin obviously didn’t think so. For her, this might have been embarrassing to begin with. If her teacher discovered this, she would die on the spot.
“No, don’t cry first. We’re just eating together, how can it be about puppy love…”
“Don’t worry, there is nothing between us to begin with. At most, we will be misunderstood. I will go in first and explain to the teacher.”
Xia Xu couldn’t hold it in anymore. He wasn’t worried about the consequences. It was just that Tang Youxin’s weak, sobbing voice was so lethal that his heart was about to break.
After calming down, Tang Youxin ignored him and ran away with her head hanging down.
Soon after, the lunch break bell rang, and all the students returned to their respective classrooms in an orderly manner. The noisy and lively school gradually returned to silence.
“I’ll go in first, wait at the door.”
Xia Xu and Tang Youxin came to the door of the office and asked Tang Youxin to wait outside while he went in first.
This office was not Liu Xiulan’s independent office, but the collective office of all the teachers on this floor.
Fortunately, it was lunch break, so there was only a skinny man wearing glasses in the office.
Moreover, Liu Xiulan might have informed him in advance. After seeing Xia Xu come in, the bespectacled teacher looked at him with a smile before leaving the office.
Liu Xiulan’s voice sounded at the same time. “Do you know why I called you here?”
Xia Xu nodded slightly. “Is it because of me and Tang Youxin?”
“Yes.”
Liu Xiulan was a little surprised by the calmness of the student in front of her, but she still said, “I understand that you may have some vague feelings towards each other, but high school is when you are studying, especially when the college entrance examination is in a few months. At this time, you should concentrate on your studies…”
After thinking about her words, she continued, “Tang Youxin’s family background is poor. For her, the college entrance examination may be the only opportunity for her to make a name for herself. Moreover, don’t blame the teacher for being blunt. Although you didn’t apply for a bursary, I know a little about your situation. If you focus on your relationship now, it will affect both of your future…”
“Ms. Liu, there may be a misunderstanding.”
Xia Xu interrupted. “I just saw that Tang Youxin ate two buns for lunch, so I only wanted to treat her to a bowl of noodles.”
“That is for the best. Just treat it as a teacher’s nagging. You are a boy, so my words might be a little harsh.”
Liu Xiulan nodded slightly and said, “Go back and rest, and call Tang Youxin over.”
“Ms. Liu, you don’t have to call Tang Youxin in anymore. Just explaining it to me is enough.”
Xia Xu quickly said with a smile, “After all, Tang Youxin is a girl, and she is timid and introverted. She is not as thick-skinned as me. Calling her over would be embarrassing. It would not be good if people saw us being called to the office together.”
“There’s really nothing between us. We are just pure classmates, not even friends. Look, if you have any advice for me, I can go back and relay that to her, how about that?”
“Then should I praise you for being responsible?”
Liu Xiulan lectured him, but she was a little surprised.
The natural awe of a teacher cum teacher-in-charge was quite intimidating in elementary high school. Usually, when students were called to the office to talk, they were mostly submissive. Even the more unruly students had to restrain themselves.
However, Xia Xu was extremely calm from the beginning to the end. He took the initiative to negotiate with her clearly. He was indeed more mature than most students.
“No need for compliments, just finish your lecture, I promise to relay word for word.”
Xia Xu chuckled.
“That’s enough, I’m calling Tang Youxin about the bursary. You should go back and rest.”
Liu Xiulan smiled and waved her hand.
“Okay.”
After hearing this, Xia Xu was relieved. He turned around and left.
“How… how is it?”
Tang Youxin, who was waiting nervously at the entrance of the office, asked hopefully when she saw Xia Xu come out.
“It’s okay, it’s just a meal. It’s not that easy to misunderstand. Ms. Liu asked about the bursary and asked why I didn’t apply.”
Xia Xu gave a white lie and urged, “Ms. Liu called you because of the bursary. Go in quickly.”
“Oh.”
Tang Youxin nodded obediently. Her face was red as she jogged to the door, opened it by a crack, looked around, then squeezed in.
“I really have to find a way to get some money first, and… the college entrance examination is quite troublesome.”
After watching Tang Youxin enter, Xia Xu walked towards the classroom with a frown.
After all, he was an adult, so he had a high degree of understanding and acceptance of reality. Although Liu Xiulan had tried her best to be tactful, he could still understand what she meant.
To put it more bluntly, if you were a rich second-generation heir, it would be fine if you could provide for others for the rest of their lives, but you are an orphan yourself. You can’t even provide for yourself, so you shouldn’t be dating Tang Youxin instead. Don’t affect others during the college entrance examination, harming yourself and ruining both your futures.
But this time, he was really wronged. Although he wanted to see her true face, he was really moved by Tang Youxin’s naivety just now. He just wanted to treat her to a meal.
Moreover, he was a transmigrator, and he had been doing well in the past. At the very least, it was not a problem for him to take care of the two of them. Moreover, he also had the cheat code: status appraisal. It would not be difficult to earn money in the future.

But now, money was indeed a problem. He needed money to secure his life, and he also needed the first bucket of gold.
The original host of the body was actually quite tragic. His parents died early and his grandmother lived with him since he was a child. He was left behind some inheritance, but his grandmother passed away last year. No one in the family couldn’t handle the funeral arrangements so everything was left for the funeral company to arrange. Even a simple funeral had cost a lot, so he only had three to four thousand yuan left in his savings.
It was not a problem for him to survive until he graduated from high school. His original host, who had a strong sense of self-esteem, did not apply for a scholarship. He planned to sell his house or rent it out after the college entrance examination, then go to the university and live in his dorm.
But he was not his original host, so he did not want to live a difficult life.
If he didn’t have money in his pockets, he would feel guilty about doing anything. Moreover, he wanted to rely on his special ability to find talents to start a company and make a lot of money, which required starting capital..
