"Hello, I'm looking for Teacher Bai. ”

Standing at the gate of the head teacher's office, Gu Nian probed his hand, light but powerful, and knocked on the half-open door.

Hearing the movement behind him, the teacher closest to the door turned around, pointed to Gu Nian in the innermost direction of the room, and explained in a friendly voice: "Oh, over there, go inside." ”

After speaking, he turned his head and shouted inside: "Teacher Bai, someone is here!"

Looking in the direction that the man was pointing to, Gu Nian noticed that in the distance, there were two people standing by the window, one high and one low.

The little boy who seemed to be attracted by their conversation, always drooping his head, and standing by the windowsill, suddenly raised his head with some excitement and glanced at the gate hurriedly, but after a brief meeting of his eyes and Gu Nian, he was listless and lowered his head.

Although it was only a few seconds, although the color in his eyes was fleeting, the little boy's hope that was lit up and extinguished was still captured by Gu Nian.

"Hello, I'm Bai Xiaoxiao, Wang Haoyu's homeroom teacher, who are you?"

"Oh, hello Mr. Bai, my name is Gu Nian, Ms. Wang Jin called me over, and I am her assistant. ”

When the attention was still on the little boy, Teacher Bai, who was standing by the windowsill with Wang Haoyu, had already taken steps to Gu Nian's side.

Hearing Gu Nian say that she was Wang Jin's assistant, her expression was slightly stunned, and she nodded, before she looked away and subconsciously looked at Qiu Yichen beside Gu Nian.

"I was her colleague and sent her here. Speaking lightly, Qiu Yichen brought the conversation back to the point: "Teacher Bai came to the parents today, what is the reason?"

"Oh, that's ......" It seemed that he was intending to take a step to speak, Bai Xiaoxiao glanced at the direction of the windowsill, and then lowered his voice and said: "Haoyu is usually very obedient, and his academic performance is also very good, so he is very worry-free." Today, I don't know why, Haoyu suddenly had an argument with his classmates, and he didn't say the reason when he asked him, so I wanted to find my parents and talk about it......"

Hearing this, Gu Nian had already figured out a rough idea.

Retracting her gaze to the window, she smiled at Bai Xiaoxiao: "Teacher Bai, can I talk to Haoyu alone?"

Intuition told her that Haoyu's abnormal behavior today had a lot to do with his expectations for the person he just came.

Soon, under the guidance of Teacher Bai, Gu Nian took Xiao Haoyu to the small flower bed near the playground and had a little time to communicate alone.

In fact, as the focus of the city with a high safety index and admission rate in N City, the experimental primary school is not a single person, and it can casually lead the students to the small playground to talk alone.

Bai Xiaoxiao listened to Wang Haoyu's mother in the morning, and Ms. Wang Jin personally mentioned on the phone that she would send an assistant named Gu Nian to deal with her son's affairs on her behalf.

So after reading the documents provided by Gu Nian, he finally put his mind at ease and agreed to let Xiao Haoyu and Gu Nian go.

It's just that Xiao Haoyu's mother has never cared much about things at school, let alone worried about them.

Throughout the year, there are several parent-teacher conferences per semester.

Either they are busy with official business and don't come, or they send the little aunt at home.

Like today, she asked the work assistant around her to come forward for her, and she upgraded her luxury to two as soon as she came, which was the first time.

Therefore, for such a sudden attention, Mr. Bai is inevitably a little curious.

On the side of the red and green plastic runway, three figures stood at a distance from each other.

At first, Haoyu and Gu Nian stayed together, and they didn't have a good impression of these two strangers.

It was not noisy or noisy, but the heroic little face was stretched coldly, until Gu Nian stood in front of him, observed him quietly for a long time, and finally walked to his side and sat down by himself.

"It's very uncomfortable to see that the person who came is not your mother, isn't it?"

Raised his eyebrows and glanced at the little boy who was not easy to approach next to him, and Gu Nian's tone was narrow and naughty: "Well, let me guess, in fact, you are making trouble in the class today, you want your mother to come to school to pick you up, right?"

Hearing Gu Nian say this, the expression on Haoyu's face was obviously relaxed.

Turning his head to look at Gu Nian, he slowly withdrew his gaze.

After bowing his head and being silent for a while, Xiao Haoyu finally spoke and replied.

He said, "Why do you think so?"

The voice is faint, but clear.

It's been a while since I saw Xiao Haoyu.

This is the first time that Gu Nian heard Haoyu speak.

Haoyu is in the third grade this year.

Although no one stipulates what kind of characteristics a third-grade elementary school student must have, he knows from his cold tone that this is by no means a child who likes to be at the mercy of others.

In Xiao Haoyu's calm tone, there was no childish taste at all.

But Rao is like this, and it can't be hidden, some wishes are not satisfied, and a little awkward mind.

So, smiling slightly, Gu Nian said in a relaxed tone: "No, I just know that if the person who just appeared at the door of the office is your mother, you will be happier." ”

is different from the little aunt sent by her mother in the past, Haoyu feels that the person next to her is standing on an equal identity and talking to herself.

I didn't treat him as a child, nor did I treat him as a trustee.

Every word Gu Nian spoke clearly and transparently balanced his position.

couldn't help but close his eyes, Haoyu was silent for a moment, and then said: "Well, my mother doesn't come home often, and she doesn't come to school often, she was still working when I slept, and she was gone before I woke up." Even the parent-teacher conference is to find someone to replace her. I thought if I made a big deal out of it, she might take care of me. But the result is still the same, it seems that work is more important to her than me. ”

After listening to Haoyu's words, Gu Nian was silent.

We talked a lot about Haoyu and his family.

The two chatted and chatted, but they also talked about a plain and real tacit understanding.

Especially when it comes to Haoyu who has lost his father very early and lives with his mother, his mother is usually very busy with work and never participates in school activities......

Gu Nian seemed to suddenly understand why the director was so strong and so unapproachable.

The years have given her hardships, and naturally she is less tender.

In the absence of responsibility, it is inevitably difficult to balance the relationship between the family.

When they were talking, Qiu Yichen had been standing near the two of them without any sense of existence.

Although he didn't say anything and didn't put any pressure on people, such a quiet person was still noticed by Haoyu, who was also quiet.

"Who is that person?is your boyfriend?" Pulling back his gaze at Qiu Yichen, Xiao Haoyu asked in a light tone.
