Chapter 103

Jiang Yu immediately turned off his phone, his hand awkwardly suspended in midair, "Teacher Yu... Teacher Yu Na..."

Yu Na realized the truth and sank into fear. She didn't even give him a glance and left this place full of gossip.

Jiang Yu wanted to go after her and explain, but in the end, he didn't know what to say.

Because no matter what he said, it would be futile. All the words of explanation would be pale and powerless.

What she saw and heard was the truth.

It was him who was doing things for Yu Na's father and forcing Yu Na to resign.

Yu Na went into the office, massaging her temples, and unraveling the words she had just heard like a silken thread.

Jiang Yu was sent by her father. His mission here was not to study, but to monitor her emotional life and force her to resign.

No wonder. She had always had a good relationship with students and was dedicated to her work. But ever since Jiang Yu transferred here, he had been very mean to her. He even publicly said that her teaching was illogical and that she was not suitable to be a teacher. Even when she took her personal time to give Jiang Yu make-up classes, he still stubbornly insisted that she should resign.

From the very beginning, his overt and covert purposes seemed very clear - to make her resign.

Also, being young, he could not hide things well and was too eager to accomplish his mission.

Even so, Yu Na did not figure out who he really was.

She just took him for a rebellious child and believed that she could definitely make him study well.

For this, she took out her break time and prepared all kinds of test questions for him, from easy to difficult, and made vocabulary books for him. She used her spare time after school to give him free make-up classes.

She helped with a sincere heart someone who wanted to force her to resign and worked for her father's side.

Yu Na smiled self-deprecatingly. It turned out she was like a clown.

But why? What did she do wrong?

She had agreed with her father at first that she would live on her own and not spend a penny from home or use any of her father's connections. And she did it. Since she started living on her own, she hadn't asked for a single penny. Everything she got was through her own efforts.

She just wanted a life of her own.

But father, why did he have to force her like this?

Why, when her life was at its best, did he send in a child with impure purposes to pressure her and monitor her?

Why, why did he take advantage of a minor like this? What benefits did he give Jiang Yu to make him so bold?

Countless whys swirled in Yu Na's mind, and the buzzing sound made her head ache badly.

She squeezed her eyes shut and forcibly calmed herself down.

She still had to invigilate an exam later and could not let her emotions be noticed by the students.

"Teacher Yu?"

A voice pulled back her thoughts. Yu Na broke away from the negative emotions and saw Teacher Yang, her colleague, standing next to her with a concerned look on his face, "What's wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable?"

"No." Yu Na smiled, "A little sleepy."

"Ah? You don't look well," Teacher Yang said worriedly. "Why don't I take over invigilating for you? You can go home and rest well?"

"No need, no need," Yu Na stood up. "I'm fine. Teacher Yang, you go home."

"It's okay. I still have a lot of work to finish in the office," Teacher Yang felt relieved seeing she was not seriously ill. "But if you want to go back and rest, just tell me and I'll invigilate for you."

"Okay, thanks." Yu Na politely replied.

Back in the classroom, the evening self-study session was about to start.

The class monitor came back with the test papers, "Teacher, should we hand them out now?"

Yu Na put aside all her concerns and asked, "Is everyone here?"

Hao Lei said, "Three haven't arrived yet. Apart from Jiang Yu who hasn't contacted me, Song Yan and Hu Yue both asked me for leave."

After entering the classroom, Yu Na was very reluctant to look in Jiang Yu's direction.

It felt as if the nightmare of being watched had come back again.

Hearing what Hao Lei said, Yu Na nodded lightly, "Let's not wait for them. Let's start."

When the papers were almost handed out, a report that made the distracted Yu Na tense up again rang out.

Jiang Yu stood outside the classroom, looking at Yu Na, "Sorry I'm late."

He had never been so polite before.

Yu Na forced herself not to look at him and nodded calmly, "Come in."

"Thanks."

The whole evening self-study session was very quiet except for the shuffling of writing during the break after the first section.

Even Jiang Yu kept his head down the entire time, seriously working on the test paper.

Usually on weekly quizzes, he would scribble a few strokes and then lay down to sleep.

Yu Na had worried about him at that time, wondering what to do with this kid. She didn't expect that the purpose of him coming here was not to study at all, but her.

She sat at the lectern, wanting to get some work done but had no mood at all.

She held her phone with her chat window with her father displayed on the screen. After some thought, she turned it off.

She decided to confront him face-to-face via video when she got home tonight.

Back home after the evening self-study session ended, Yu Na didn't even bother to change and sent her father a video call.

The other end responded quickly but directly declined the call.

Unwilling to give up, she sent another video call, which was declined again.

Then her father texted back: 【I'm busy, don't bother me】

It was as if she was imposing on him by saying another word.

"..."

Yu Na was amused with anger. It seemed she had become the unreasonable one.

She then video called her mother, but the result was the same.

It was really laughable.

Yu Na opened the chat with her father again and typed out a message:

【Dad, I already know Jiang Yu's identity. Please don't waste your efforts. I will not resign. You can ask Jiang Yu about my attitude towards my job. I like this job. I like interacting with students. This is something I really enjoy right now. I don't know what benefits you gave him, but please, stop this. Do not take advantage of a child again. Do not keep monitoring me.】

Staring at this message, Yu Na finally changed all the "you" to "you".

Sent.

But according to her father's domineering personality, he would not reply to this message.

Yu Na didn't expect a reply either. After sending the message, she went to change clothes and take a shower.

So, Jiang Yu, what should she do next?

He was doing things for her father, so he must have gotten some benefits. Who was he and what would be the consequences if he didn't complete this task?

This question lingered in her mind.

Suddenly, the ring of an incoming call interrupted her thoughts.

It was a video call from Xiao Chen.

Yu Na clicked to answer.

The next second, the handsome face she had been missing appeared on the screen.

Although he would send her a video every night, today she missed him particularly.

She had so much to tell him.

Xiao Chen had finished getting ready for bed and was lying down again.

"What are you up to?"

The well-adjusted mood from earlier came surging back in the form of immense grief seeing his video call.

Yu Na's nose instantly turned sour and her eyes grew hot. Though there was so much she wanted to tell him, she just couldn't get the words out.

Xiao Chen immediately noticed her abnormality. He sat up in bed and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Yu Na's voice was choked up. "I miss you a little."

Xiao Chen's heart twinged. Not knowing she was coming to see him tomorrow, he said, "Silly girl, I'll be back in two days."

"Yeah," Yu Na nodded heavily. "I feel like you've been gone for a year."

A light laugh came from the other end. "Why don't you quit after you finish teaching the seniors? Then I could take you along when I go on business trips. We'd see each other every day. Wouldn't that be nice?"

Yu Na smiled through her tears, "What a terrible idea!"

"What's so bad about it?" Xiao Chen said. "You don't have to work. I can let you live a life of luxury."

Her mood improved a little. "I still wouldn't want that. If I stayed home waiting for you to come back every day, wouldn't I be super bored?"

Xiao Chen smiled. He knew Yu Na well.

She would never quit her job. Even if she did, she would look for another job and wouldn't allow herself to be idle.

The next day, Yu Na was in slightly better spirits because she was going to City A after work to see Xiao Chen.

In the morning, she went to the classroom to supervise morning reading session like nothing had happened.

On the way there, she bumped into Jiang Yu again.

He was wearing a basketball uniform with a basketball hugged against his chest. The two met face-to-face once more.
