School Hunk or Childhood Sweetheart?-Chapter 435 - 436: Seen the World, Read the Books

Shen Weiyi turned around and upon seeing him, she gestured with her eyes, "Come here quickly and apologize to the teacher."

Sheng Ye obediently stepped forward, glanced at the old man with a complex look, and said, "I’m sorry!"

The old man, seeing his compliant attitude, softened his expression somewhat. "Alright, I just wanted to bring it to your parents’ attention. Ultimately, how you’re taught is up to your parents!"

"Thank you, teacher. We’ll definitely educate him properly after we get home. Goodbye, teacher."

Upon leaving the office, Shen Weiyi took her son’s hand and said, "Let’s go!"

Sheng Ye glanced at her expression, which didn’t seem angry, and couldn’t help but look up and ask, "Aren’t you going to scold me?"

Shen Weiyi, "Scold you for what?"

Sheng Ye pressed his lips tightly together in a straight line, feeling guilty and somewhat annoyed, "I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have slept during class, and I shouldn’t have caused conflict with my classmates."

If he hadn’t done those things, his mom wouldn’t have had to apologize to the teacher on his account.

"It seems like you know where your problems lie, so are you planning to talk about it?" Shen Weiyi spoke gently.

"Talk about what?"

Shen Weiyi, "Why you slept during class, and also, why you had conflicts with your classmates?"

His young face flickered with hesitation, and he remained silent.

"It’s okay if you don’t want to talk about it." Shen Weiyi patted his head gently and didn’t push him, "You’ve always been a well-behaved child, and I believe you didn’t act this way without reason. However, we should learn to respect others. From now on, if you feel tired, I can help you take a leave so you can rest at home, but regardless, as a student, sleeping during class is always incorrect."

"We don’t need you to change your fate through education, so we don’t demand that you excel academically. But education can broaden our horizons, guide us in proper conduct, and help us improve ourselves. I hope you read more because I want you to have the ability to think independently and discern right from wrong. Read for the sake of learning, not just to read. Having seen the world and read books, you will understand what you truly want."

Sheng Ye nodded, somewhat understandingly, "I understand, mom, I will study hard from now on."

Shen Weiyi knew he was listening, even if he didn’t fully understand now; one day, he would.

After a pause, she continued, "As for the conflict with your classmates, I’m not aware of the specifics, so I can’t judge. But remember, mom hopes you will have the demeanor to not hurt others, yet also the presence that prevents others from hurting you. Never provoke others. But if someone bullies you, don’t be afraid, because your mom and dad will always stand by your side.

Just remember, no matter the circumstance, physical confrontation is not the best solution. There are many ways to solve problems, and I hope you consider others before resorting to fighting."

"I didn’t fight!" Sheng Ye said.

"That’s good."

Shen Weiyi took his hand again, her voice warm and filled with strength, "Mom believes in you. Of course, if someone harms you and defense isn’t enough to protect yourself, you can fight back. Always prioritize your safety."

"Mhm, I remember!" Sheng Ye nodded. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Shen Weiyi then smiled with relief, "Let’s go, we’ll pick up your sister and then find dad. Our family will go have something delicious to eat."

"Mhm!"
