She is my childhood sweetheart, how could I not understand her?

Chapter 366 366 Steady? Steady my ass!
Teacher Qin's reaction shocked Chen Shen, who had suffered under Teacher Qin's torment for two years.

The female teacher, who was always known for her cold demeanor and calling students a pile of stinking dog shit, revealed a helpless smile, and even her voice softened considerably afterward.

"Before, I was just disappointed in him because he was so frustrated with his lack of progress."

"Huh? Really?" Chen Shen subconsciously replied, but as soon as he finished speaking, he felt Teacher Qin's eyes, which were as sharp as knives.

Chen Shen felt much more at ease now.

"If school starts now, will you still let Xiaoyu work for you?"

"Well, actually Qin Yu can definitely work while taking care of her studies, but it will definitely be hard work. However, Qin Yu herself said she wants to try her best."

Faced with Teacher Qin's persistent questioning, Chen Shen chose to answer honestly.

Qin Juan thought for a moment, then stared intently at her daughter.

Qin Yu showed no sign of panic, simply nodding confidently and saying, "I can do it."

"The grades can't drop."

"Ah."

The more Chen Shen watched the mother and daughter's conversation, the stranger it seemed. It wasn't until Sui Sui gently tugged at him that he took a step back and listened intently to his girlfriend's mutterings.

"This mother and daughter are completely different from how they were in their senior year of high school."

"I do not know."

It wasn't just the difference in how the mother and daughter interacted; Qin Yu's transformation alone was enough to shock Chen Shen and Xu Suiyou.

Qin Yu is still pretty much the same as she was in her senior year of high school, maybe a bit braver now, but overall she's still a rather introverted and quiet person.

But now in front of Teacher Qin
Confident, composed, and generous—he would believe anything Xu Suiyou said.

In just one year, such a big change has occurred?

After thinking it over carefully, Chen Shen suddenly slammed his fist in his palm.

"I guess it's related to money."

Xu Suiyou slowly typed out a question mark.

"Think about it, isn't economic independence a prerequisite for being assertive at home?"

Chen deeply understands this point.

Ever since he started making money, he's been willing to buy big-ticket items for his home without consulting anyone first!
TV, the latest model!

Water heater, the latest model!

The washing machine is the latest model!

It also comes with a dryer!

With robot vacuums becoming increasingly intelligent these days, he plans to buy one for his home so that his mother won't have to work so hard.

As for his father, he originally wanted to buy it, but as a son, he had to consider his father's pride, so instead of buying this or that, he usually secretly bought his father cigarettes.

He absolutely refused to believe his father could quit smoking.

I've been smoking for so many years, what's a little longer?

That's why Chen Shen now stands up much straighter when he talks to his parents!
It's true that you still need to earn your own money after you become an adult, so you can have confidence in everything you do.

The more Chen Shen looked at the scene before him, the more reliable his guess seemed.

The familiar ringtone interrupted Chen Shen's daydreaming, and the once quiet outside was soon filled with noise.

"Oh! It's long break time!"

Chen Shen spoke up instinctively, and Zhang Yan, who was beside him, chimed in, "Hurry up and go downstairs!"

After he finished speaking, they all laughed.

At the same time, Zhai Guangren, who was carrying a book in one hand and surrounded by several students as he entered, immediately saw this familiar-looking brat.

Without thinking, he raised his foot and kicked Chen Shen directly in the butt.

Chen Shen, who was suddenly kicked, was also startled by the familiar touch and force.
He quickly turned around: "Teacher Zhai!"

Zhang Yan and Qin Yu naturally heard the greeting "Teacher Zhai," and both turned to look at the door. Upon seeing Zhai Guangren's familiar face, they both smiled.

"Hello, Teacher Zhai~"

"Why are you at school if you're not going to pay attention in class?"

Teacher Zhai didn't show the same excitement as Teacher Zhou. He calmly walked past Chen Shen, returned to his seat, gestured for the students who had followed him in to put their things down, and then asked with a smile. This was their homeroom teacher of three years, so Chen Shen could immediately tell that Teacher Zhai was in a good mood.

"I just missed you. How about it? I haven't let you down, have I?"

Chen Shen looked at Zhai Guangren with anticipation, wanting to hear the words he most wanted to hear from this strict homeroom teacher.

Unfortunately, just as Chen Shen understood Zhai Guangren, Zhai Guangren also understood this troublesome kid who had caused him trouble for three whole years.
"You embarrassed me the moment you asked that question."

"what?"

"Hahahaha!"

Chen Shen was a little depressed, but after returning to his familiar high school, his mindset seemed to have returned to that of a high school student.

A couple of comments from Teacher Zhai about crickets and you're all defenseless? Absolutely not!

But old ginger is indeed spicier.

Just by looking at Chen Shen's changing expression, Zhai Guangren could basically guess what Chen Shen was going to say next, so he directly interrupted the spellcasting.

What time are you leaving?

"Huh?" Chen Shen was caught off guard by the question and was embarrassed.

Qin Yu responded quickly and obediently, "We're not in a hurry, Teacher Zhai."

“That’s perfect. Our class is in the next class. Zhang Yan, you and Qin Yu go up and say a few words. Just talk about your experiences in your senior year of high school.”

"And me, Teacher Zhai?" Chen Shen went through the list and, after confirming that he hadn't heard his name from Teacher Zhai, couldn't help but ask.

"You're going to go up there and share your experience of taking a year off during your freshman year with the students?"

Chen Shen fell silent. Now he finally understood why Teacher Zhai had been criticizing him.

He gave an awkward smile and asked in a low voice, "How do you know about this?"

"Didn't you post it on your WeChat Moments?"

"Oh, I'll block you next time."

Of course, although he wouldn't mention Chen Shen verbally, Zhai Guangren would definitely let Chen Shen go up when the time came.

Regardless, Chen Shen was the student they remembered most vividly from their graduating class.

"Alright, tell me, how's your career going?" After teasing his student for a while, Zhai Guangren decided to give Chen Shen a chance to show off.

This kid went back to school for this very reason. If he goes back feeling frustrated, he probably won't be able to get over it for a month.

I hadn't cooperated with this brat before, mainly because I was afraid he'd get too cocky.

I'm 20 years old now, I can't keep acting like a high school student.

If you go out into society, you'll get ripped off again.

Chen Shen naturally understood Teacher Zhai's good intentions. Hearing his mentor ask this question, Chen Shen coughed, cleared his throat, and answered seriously.

"It is still in the development stage. At present, it has established a foothold in China and has also made quite a splash abroad. It can be considered to have a small reputation."

"Sure, what are your plans after that?"

"Take it easy and solid, first establish a strong foundation, and then gradually explore other fields while learning advanced technologies."

This was the first time Zhai Guangren had seen his student so serious and focused.

He stood there stunned for a while, then took off his glasses, wiped the lenses with a cloth, and put them back on.

Then, looking at Chen Shen clearly reflected in the mirror, a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.

"it is good."

This kid is definitely much more mature than he was in high school.

The "good" made Chen Shen grin, his previously composed smile vanishing and replaced by that familiar smug grin.

"Hehe, definitely, at least."

"Alright, stop."

Zhai Guangren resisted the urge to kick Chen Shen.

He's making his feelings too early; this brat is still the same as he was in high school!
Steady my foot!
