Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?-Chapter 1026 - 1022: Tang Tang in the Teacher’s Eyes

Chapter 1026: Chapter 1022: Tang Tang in the Teacher’s Eyes

Shen Siyuan had just stepped out of the elevator when he happened to meet Xu Xiaojing "off work".

The same was Tang Tang’s sign language teacher before, now promoted to be the tutor for both Tang Tang and Xiao Ya.

Although she had been teaching Tang Tang for quite some time, Shen Siyuan hadn’t actually seen her many times.

She’s a slim girl, not very tall, with a delicate appearance, wearing a floral dress, looking like a high school student, with a bit of childishness on her face.

"Mr. Shen, Miss Jiang, Xiao Yue..."

Upon seeing them, she immediately greeted them politely and waved at Xiao Yue, appearing very lively.

Since they met, Shen Siyuan seized the opportunity to ask about Tang Tang and Xiao Ya’s studies. Although Ruan Hongzhuang had told him that both were progressing well, he wasn’t clear on the details.

"Teacher Xu, do you have time now? If you’re not in a hurry, I’d like to understand the children’s learning situation." Shen Siyuan said.

"Oh, I can, I have nothing to do when I get back anyway." Xu Xiaojing said.

Her answer suggests she is a person without any scheming.

After all, ordinary people would say they are not in a hurry; only those who are naive and straightforward would admit they have nothing to do when they return.

So, Xu Xiaojing followed the three back inside.

"Oh~"

Tang Tang, who was pulling a yo-yo car around the house with a string, saw Shen Siyuan return and immediately ran over on her little short legs.

Yet, she didn’t let go of the string, making a whooshing sound as she dragged it.

"han~"

Tang Tang ran up with a silly grin, spreading her arms to dive into Shen Siyuan’s embrace, but a force behind her suddenly pulled her back, causing her to fall headlong to the ground.

Taozi standing beside was startled and wanted to move forward, but someone beside her was quicker.

Shen Siyuan slightly moved and in a flash, arrived, reached out to support her little head, and helped her stand up straight.

"han~"

Tang Tang grinned widely at him with a silly smile.

"Still laughing, did you forget the pain from last time?"

Shen Siyuan gently patted her smooth forehead.

Last time, she bumped her forehead and got a big bump, looking like a unicorn, and it was Shen Siyuan who managed to get rid of the "horn".

Tang Tang first smiled at Shen Siyuan, then got angry and turned around to see who pulled her.

But when she turned around, she found no one behind her, then she noticed the string in her hand, realized what happened, and showed an embarrassed smile.

Her adorable look made everyone burst into laughter.

Xiao Ya, hearing the laughter, ran in from the balcony.

"Uncle, Aunt Taozi, you guys are back?"

Then she looked at Xu Xiaojing, wondering why Teacher Xu hadn’t left after work?

"Go wipe your mouth, I need to discuss something with Teacher Xu." Shen Siyuan patted her little head.

The little one had a sticky mouth, indicating she was snacking.

Shen Siyuan led Teacher Xu to sit in the living room, while Taozi went to brew tea for them.

Straightly, Shen Siyuan asked about Tang Tang’s learning state.

Talking about Tang Tang, Teacher Xu immediately started to speak passionately.

"Although Tang Tang cannot hear sounds, she is very talented. She easily learns things in one try, and if she doesn’t learn, it’s because she doesn’t want to..."

"Uh... What do you mean by doesn’t want to learn?"

"It’s just... she doesn’t want to ’listen’ to you, but usually, if I pause and give her a break, I can teach her later."

Shen Siyuan, hearing this, realized something about Tang Tang’s selective listening, and couldn’t help but smile knowingly.

"Is there anything else?"

"She also has an incredibly strong imagination and unique perspective, making her very gifted in painting. Not only is her imagination boundless, her sense of color is unmatched, she is a genius, a true genius..."

"Teacher Xu, have some water, and speak slowly."

Seeing Teacher Xu becoming overly excited, Shen Siyuan interrupted her. Of course, he knew Tang Tang was a genius, which was indisputable.

After taking a sip of water, Xu Xiaojing eagerly continued, "However, since she hasn’t received formal art education, her drawings lack structure, relying solely on talent, and if she wants to pursue art, she should find a professional teacher..."

"Why must there be structure?" Shen Siyuan asked.

"What?" Xu Xiaojing was taken aback by Shen Siyuan’s question.

Shen Siyuan continued, "Structure means a framework, and a framework would constrain her talent. Why not let her freely express herself?"

Xu Xiaojing paused, then said, "If so, when she grows up, her work may not gain mainstream approval."

"Why seek others’ approval? Painting is about pleasing oneself, as long as she feels happy while painting, that’s all that matters."

Hearing this, Teacher Xu was momentarily stunned, then looked around the room’s decor, and with a slightly bitter smile said, "I was short-sighted. With Mr. Shen’s resources, Tang Tang indeed won’t need to create art for a living, or for others."

"Teacher Xu, I am not completely dismissing your point, but isn’t structure also set by people?" Shen Siyuan smiled and asked in return.

Xu Xiaojing was surprised by Shen Siyuan’s confidence, realizing he wanted Tang Tang to carve out her own path and become a creator of her own framework.

While art often thrives on financial backing, and with enough money, even trash can be turned into art.

But with what she witnessed so far, it might not suffice for that. Yet, ensuring Tang Tang a life free of worries is absolutely possible.

Secretly, she couldn’t help but sigh at Tang Tang’s good fortune.

She had known Tang Tang for a long time, having taught her sign language when she was living in Rainbow House, a charitable position without pay, purely for charity.

Unexpectedly, not long after, Tang Tang got adopted, providing her with an affluent living environment and even found her a mother.

Of course, most importantly, the whole family loves her dearly.

"Let’s stop discussing this. How about Xiao Ya, is she keeping up with her studies?"

"Yes, Xiao Ya is very focused and diligent in her studies," Xu Xiaojing said.

Hearing this, Shen Siyuan understood that Xiao Ya is just an ordinary child whose strengths are focus and diligence.

These are excellent traits. If she persists, even if her talents are average, she will certainly not do poorly in the future.

In this, Shen Siyuan was very satisfied. He didn’t have high expectations for Xiao Ya. After all, not everyone is favored by the heavens. Meeting the likes of Shen Siyuan was already a huge blessing.

"I won’t take up more of your time, Teacher Xu."

After learning about the children’s basic situation, Shen Siyuan no longer delayed Teacher Xu.

Teacher Xu also got up to say goodbye, and Shen Siyuan escorted her to the door.

Just when she was about to leave, she suddenly turned around, her expression hesitant, seeming to have something to say.

So, Shen Siyuan proactively asked, "Teacher Xu, if you have something to say, please do not hesitate."

Feeling assured by these words, Xu Xiaojing finally spoke, "Tang Tang..."
