After confirming the name list, Li Xiao emphasized tutoring after school to everyone.
Unknowingly, night arrived. Just as they returned to the Huo family and had dinner, Chen Man brought a few people with her and knocked on Mo Zhu’s door.
As Mo Zhu was worried about Feng Yu’s condition, she had been focused on flipping through various ancient books in the room recently. She wanted to learn professional pharmacology and prepare the antidote accurately.
‘When she heard Chen Man’s voice coming from outside the door, she put down her book and stood up to open the door.
There were a few middle-aged men standing quietly behind Chen Man outside the door. Two of them had half their hair white, and they did not look young anymore.
Mo Zhu stood at the door and glanced at them indifferently. Then, she retracted her gaze and greeted Chen Man politely, “Hello, Auntie.”
After Zhang Fen’s funeral, this was the first time Chen Man had seen Mo Zhu. Looking at the girl’s slightly thin face, she pulled Mo Zhu’s hand and said softly, “Xiao Zhu, I haven’t visited you these few days. Why have you lost so much weight! Xuan’er must have not taken good care of you. I’ll teach him a
lesson for you later!”
When Mo Zhu heard this, she understood that Chen Man was concerned about her. She shook the woman’s hand and said with a smile, “Auntie, Huo Xuan treats me quite well.”
When Chen Man heard this, she held Mo Zhu’s hand and said a few words of concern. After a while, she recalled why she had come to look for the girl today. Chen Man cleared her throat and said seriously, “Xiao Zhu, yesterday, your form teacher, Li Xiao, called me and said that you had registered for
some national Mathematics competition. Is this true?”
‘Mo Zhu nodded and looked Chen Man in the eye as she replied, “That’s right.”
After saying this, Chen Man looked at Mo Zhu in understanding. Then, she turned around and pointed at the few people standing quietly behind her and said to the girl, “Xiao Zhu, these are the top Mathematics teachers your Uncle Huo specially hired for you from Beijing. I thought that since we had
signed up for this, you must have good teaching resources, so I discussed with your uncle and found a few teachers for you.”
After a pause, Chen Man touched the girl’s hand again and reminded her sincerely, “Although Mr. Li said that you have a chance of entering the finals, Auntie feels that it’s not important whether you can get good grades and go to a good school. As long as you grow up happily, Auntie and Uncle will be very
happy.”
After Li Xiao had called, Chen Man had more or less researched more about this Mathematics competition because it was related to Mo Zhu. Now, she naturally knew that the international competition was not easy.
Speaking of her motive for coming today, it was not only just bringing the teachers over to improve Mo Zhu’s results. She was also afraid that the girl would feel too much pressure because she thought too highly of this competition or that the heavy workload would tire her.
After interacting with Mo Zhu for so long, she understood this girl quite a bit. As long as it was something that this child had agreed to, she had always taken it seriously and completed it seriously. Therefore, Chen Man had no choice but to take this matter seriously.
When Mo Zhu heard this, she lowered her eyes and frowned slightly. She was not used to the crowded environment, especially the class that was specially prepared for her. However, with Chen Man’s good intentions and concern for her, she was momentarily embarrassed to reject her.
Before the girl could speak, Huo Xuan noticed a commotion in the corridor. He opened the door and walked out. When he heard Chen Man’s words, he raised his eyebrows with interest. Mo Zhu was going to participate in the national Mathematics competition? How interesting. With the little girl’s results,
even if she were to speed up her tutoring and practice constantly till the time the college entrance examination comes, she might not be able to pass through the preliminaries.
Huo Xuan took two steps forward and stood in front of the two of them. He looked at Mo Zhu gently and said seriously, “If you want to participate in the national competition, you have to be well-prepared. The teachers hired from Beijing are better than the teachers in Cloud City. Why don’t you ask them
to stay and teach you for a few days?”
Since Huo Xuan had already said so, Mo Zhu naturally couldn’t reject him anymore. She lowered her eyes and nodded in agreement. “Alright, I’ll just study for a few days.”
Hearing the girl agree, Chen Man immediately turned around happily and pulled Huo Xuan downstairs. As she walked, she tuned around and said to Mo Zhu, “Then I won’t disturb you from your studies. Let’s go down and have a cup of tea.”
‘Mo Zhu had originally wanted to read more about the medicine in the ancient books, but after Chen Man’s arrangement, she frowned slightly and turned to let the few teachers who were standing not far away enter the room.
The few of them followed Mo Zhu and sat down at the table. Then, one of the teachers, who looked to be the oldest, took out a middle difficulty paper from the briefcase he had brought and handed it to Mo Zhu. He coughed lightly and said in a low voice, “Mo Zhu, right? Take a look at this paper. We’ll do a
basic ability test first.”
