The Goddess is a Little Pitiful, I Invested in Her!

Chapter 28: Mr. Xu’s Concerns, Qi Yun’s Intentions!

When Qi Yun arrived at the door of Mr. Xus office, he heard Mr. Xus voice coming from inside. They were talking about him.

These kids nowadays, thinking about all kinds of things when theyre in their senior year.

What happened? Another issue in your class?

Theres this girl in our class, Lian Qingxue. You know, the one with excellent grades but from a poor family.

Ive heard of her.

Lian Qingxue was well known among the teachers, because they knew her situation was not easy, and they all paid extra attention to her.

This poor girl is even thinking about dating now. And theres this boy in our class, Qi Yun, whos immature!

Mr. Xu was complaining inside.

Qi Yun knocked on the door and the conversation inside stopped.

Come in.

As soon as Qi Yun entered, Mr. Xus face became stern, Well, do you want to argue with me?

No, teacher, I came here to thank you.

Thank me? Mr. Xu looked surprised.

I know, you really care about Lian Qingxue.

Qi Yun was sincere. He had a deep impression of Mr. Xu from his previous life. Mr. Xu had been his homeroom teacher for three years. He was often stern and would appear unexpectedly outside the classroom window or back door, scaring everyone. Most students were afraid of him. In many students hearts, Mr. Xu was like a strict enforcer.

Yet, who would have thought that after the college entrance examination, when the senior class had a farewell dinner, Mr. Xu got drunk. He cried so hard in front of a group of students, saying he didnt want to part with them.

Especially when he saw Lian Qingxue.

He took out all the money from his pocket and insisted on giving it to Lian Qingxue.

While drunk, he told Lian Qingxue that if she ever needed money in the future, she should come back to him. He wanted her to study hard and change her destiny.

Mr. Xu looked at Qi Yun, feeling that the boy had not only changed in appearance but had also matured a lot.

He couldnt help but take out a cigarette.

Qi Yun picked up the lighter on the table and lit it for him.

Mr. Xu:

He took a silent puff, his gaze became even more complicated.

Since you understand, then Ill talk to you seriously. Mr. Xus face softened.

I used to think you were an immature boy, but it seems you are more sensible than I thought.

But do you understand Lian Qingxues family situation? Have you considered the impact of a relationship on her?

You are a boy, and your family is not poor. If you dont go to a good university, the impact might not be too big.

But what about Lian Qingxue? Shes a girl with no one at home. What happens if she doesnt get into a good university? Im not being heartless, but for Lian Qingxue, life is already cruel enough. Having a relationship is a luxury she cant afford.

Lian Qingxue is one of the most hardworking students in the class. If she starts dating and her grades drop, what happens to all her efforts over the years?

Mr. Xu took a puff of his cigarette and said a lot.

This wasnt Mr. Xus usual style. In front of his students, he was usually quiet.

But talking to Qi Yun made Mr. Xu feel like he was talking to a peer, so he said more than he usually would.

Qi Yun listened attentively, not showing any impatience.

Teacher, I admit, I like Lian Qingxue. But I dont think sitting together will lower her grades. In fact, I want to sit with her because I want us to go to the same university in the future.

Oh? You want her to tutor you? Mr. Xu was skeptical.

No, Ill tutor her!

Cough! Mr. Xu choked on his cigarette: You tutor her? What are your grades and what are her grades?

Of course, Mr. Xu didnt believe him. Lian Qingxue was one of the top students in class.

As for Qi Yun? He was average, maybe even below average.

Qi Yuns claim seemed a bit outlandish to Mr. Xu.

But Qi Yun wasnt making excuses.

After he obtained the scholars halo, he found that his learning ability had surpassed Lian Qingxues. His progress was rapid and he was about to surpass Lian Qingxue.

He had only been studying for thirty days while Lian Qingxue had been studying for three years.

This speed was hard to imagine.

Lately, Lian Qingxue was quite anxious.

According to Xiao Yu, after returning to the orphanage, Lian Qingxue often studied until two or three in the morning.

Qi Yun understood that she was afraid she couldnt catch up with his grades.

Xiao Yu said that Lian Qingxue wanted to go to the same university as him.

And now, she was afraid that she wouldnt be able to.

Therefore, Qi Yun came up with the idea of becoming desk mates with Lian Qingxue.

But, Mr. Xu didnt believe him.
