The intern taught a top-performing class, and the parents wanted to change the homeroom teacher.

Before evening self-study.

Lu Qian called Zhai Yumo to the corridor.

"Yu Mo, I have good news to tell you."

Zhai Yumo paused for a moment, as if realizing something, and her heart began to beat faster.

"I went to see Director Pan this morning, and after communicating with him, the school applied for a 'Special Scholarship for Ice and Snow Sports' for you, which is specifically to support your expenses for skating. Your family doesn't need to pay for it, and you just need to focus on training."

Zhai Yumo's mouth opened slightly, her eyes filled with surprise.

"Teacher Lu, this...this..." She was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a moment.

I was introduced to ice skating last Saturday, and this morning I asked her if she would like to participate in an ice skating competition. By evening, I had received ice skating sponsorship.

That's incredibly fast!

She couldn't even imagine how much effort Teacher Lu had put in.

Zhai Yumo bowed deeply, "Teacher Lu, thank you!"

Lu Qian smiled and said, "You're welcome."

Li Zhiyuan acted quickly; after hanging up the phone in the morning, he immediately arranged for his secretary to handle the matter.

In the afternoon, someone was directly assigned to connect with Director Pan, and the money was transferred to the school's account.

Zhai Yumo took a deep breath to calm her excitement, then subconsciously considered the whole picture before hesitatingly speaking a few seconds later.

"Teacher Lu, this sponsorship... you didn't pay for it yourself, did you...?"

She's not stupid. She's a high school sophomore now, and before she started skating last Saturday, her school didn't even have a "Snow and Ice Special Scholarship".

Furthermore, when Teacher Lu approached her about ice skating, it was hard not to wonder if it was sponsored by Teacher Lu.

Lu Qian chuckled, "It's not me, it's a kind-hearted citizen. You just need to train normally, and this scholarship will cover all your skating expenses."

"Teacher Lu, will I know who he is later?" Zhai Yumo asked.

"Of course," Lu Qian nodded. "I'll let you know when you've achieved something!"

Suddenly, Zhai Yumo seemed to realize something and frowned, asking, "Wait a minute, Teacher Lu, is this sponsor my own father?"

"Huh?" Lu Qian was taken aback. "Why do you ask that?"

"I've read so many novels that are written like this, where the biological father abandons his wife and children, then feels guilty and tries to make it up to his children after achieving success..." Zhai Yumo said with a look of disgust, "It can't be that melodramatic, can it?"

Lu Qian smirked, "Your most urgent task right now is to delete those novels!"

"He's not your dad, don't worry."

Zhai Yumo breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "Teacher Lu must know who this kind citizen is. Please help me convey his gratitude for his help. I will work hard at skating! I will definitely repay him in the future!"

"Okay, talk to your mother about this when you get home tonight. Also..." Lu Qian paused, "You might not be able to go to your dance teaching assistant job this weekend for the time being, because you'll be joining a professional training team and need to balance work and rest."

Zhai Yumo paused for a moment. Oh right, if she focused on skating, she wouldn't be able to be a dance teaching assistant. She had to talk to the dance studio about it.

Lu Qian felt a little guilty for having lured that dance saint to ice skating.

I hope the dance master won't be angry.

By the way, figure skating will need choreography in the future, and Ms. Liu Yaru, the dance principal, could also help!

Thinking about it that way, I feel even more guilty.

"Yu Mo, let's go together this weekend. It'll be better to talk to each other in person, buy the equipment, and I can also teach you some new skating moves. You can watch more skating videos when you get home in the evening," Lu Qian said.

Ice skates are highly specialized and need to be purchased based on factors such as foot shape, size, technique, and weight.

"Okay, thank you, Teacher Lu!" Zhai Yumo said.

……

Evening self-study class.

Lu Qian returned to his office, took out the study buddies that Xi Wenjing and Xu Nuowen had customized, and went back to the classroom.

The two companions each used acrylic sheets for packaging, and then wrapped them in wrapping paper.

There are also some accessories made from scraps, which can be used to change outfits.

Lu Qian tapped the blackboard, drawing the attention of the entire class.

Seeing the two gift boxes on the podium, the whole class started gossiping.

"Teacher, who gave you this gift?"

"Teacher, is today your birthday?"

"..."

Lu Qian smiled and raised his hand to signal the students to quiet down. "This isn't a gift from someone else. It's a study companion for Xi Wenjing and Xu Nuowen. It's already made."

The whole class exclaimed "Wow!"

Li Jun immediately straightened his neck, lifted his buttocks off the stool, and looked puzzled.

"Why isn't mine?"

"Alright, you two come up and get it," Lu Qian said.

Deng Deng Deng!

Da da da!

The two girls couldn't wait and ran up to the podium, where they found their names on the box.

"Teacher, can we open it on the podium?" Xi Wenjing asked excitedly.

"Of course." Lu Qian stepped aside, giving their seats to the two of them.

Xi Wenjing and Xu Nuowen quickly opened the box, revealing the study companion inside.

Nyanko-sensei and Hedwig.

A chubby calico cat and a snowy white snowy owl.

"Wow!" The two girls' eyes lit up. "So cute!"

The large Nyanko-sensei is lying face down with its hands tucked in, eyes closed, and bubbles coming out of its nose. Above its head is a smaller version of the same Nyanko-sensei, hugging a small wine bottle, its eyes narrowed into slits, looking utterly adorable.

Hedwig was also chubby, standing on a tree branch, with round-framed glasses hanging on her face and a small iron chain dangling beside her. Her wide eyes were full of wisdom and seriousness, and she held an envelope in her beak.

The whole class stood up one after another, leaned forward to look, and started discussing it all at once.

"So cute!"

"Teacher Lu's cooking skills are amazing!"

"I want one too!"

"If this is the quality, I'm definitely going to roll it up!"

"I want a mecha! I want a mecha!"

"I want Gengar!!"

Even students unfamiliar with these two figures were amazed by the craftsmanship of this wood carving.

Lu Qian was very satisfied with the students' reaction.

want to?

Study! Practice!

Li Jun was almost frantic, practically standing on a stool, shouting, "Teacher Lu, where's mine! Where's mine!"

The other students then realized that Li Jun's study buddy was missing.

Lu Qian thought of Li Jun's custom order and smirked, "Yours is still being made. It's a bit complicated. I'll finish carving it tonight and give it to you tomorrow."

Li Jun breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Teacher Lu wouldn't be able to carve him out.

"It's alright, it's alright, Teacher Lu, take your time carving!"

Fan Siwen's eyes lit up as she looked at the two wooden carvings on the podium, and she was also curious about Li Jun's reaction.

"Hey, what kind of study buddy did you choose?"

"The Buddha said: It cannot be spoken." Li Jun revealed a profound expression. "Don't worry, once the things arrive, I'll definitely show them to the whole class. You'll all be so envious!"

"I am the only one!"
