Chapter 20: Parent-Teacher Conference
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
It had been more than a month since Lu Wanggui got married. This was the first time Lu Bei realized that there was an additional person in the family, a person who was nominally his stepmother and whom he would often see.
In a way, Lu Bei and Xiang Xiaoyuan had something in common. They were both very Buddhist. Therefore, even after realizing that many things in the family were no longer exclusive to him, Lu Bei did not feel too sad. He also did not want to do anything to announce his possessiveness to Xiang Xiaoyuan.
Or in essence, he did not seem to mind living with Xiang Xiaoyuan, because this stepmother was really tactful.
He did not hate her, but that was all.
...
The next day, Xiang Xiaoyuan got out of bed very early to dress up.
This was her first parent-teacher conference, and she was uncertain about her style of dressing. She remembered that her mother used to dress casually when she went to her parent-teacher conferences. Now that it was her turn to be a mother, the situation was very different. free(w)ebnov(e)l
In the TV series, the parent-teacher conferences for the rich were equivalent to a different kind of dinner party. She could not dress too simply. If she dressed too simply, she would be ridiculed. She could not dress too formally or too flamboyantly. If she did so, she would also be ridiculed.
After choosing for more than an hour, she changed clothes one after another, but she still could not find the most suitable one. Helpless, she could only pull Nanny Zhang over to ask for help. Under Nanny Zhang’s suggestion, she tried on the Qipao that was placed in the corner.
Xiang Xiaoyuan had never worn a Qipao before. It was not that she was not confident in her figure as there was nothing wrong with her figure. Instead, she felt that a woman who wore a Qipao should be gentle, like a woman who had come from the water towns of Jiangnan. Xiang Xiaoyuan felt that she did not have this kind of temperament.
Nanny Zhang did not know what clothes to choose for Xiang Xiaoyuan. When she saw the pretty Qipao, she pointed at it casually. However, she did not expect that the mistress would look so good in it!
“There are beauties in the north who are independent and isolated from the world.”
Nanny Zhang looked at Xiang Xiaoyuan who walked out from behind the curtain with her mouth agape.
Xiang Xiaoyuan had an excellent figure. She looked slim, but she was definitely not flat. There was a lot of substance where there should be, and the thin part was just right. The Qipao showed one’s figure very much. It was not good to be thin, but it was also not good to be too fat. If one was too fat, it would inevitably make them look inelegant. If one was too thin, it would appear hollow, and they would not be able to carry the look.
The moon-white Qipao was worn on Xiang Xiaoyuan’s body, making her already fair skin look as if it was covered with a layer of mist. It was so tender that water could be squeezed out.
“You look so good, Madam!”
Nanny Zhang was so excited that she did not know how to praise her. It was as if no matter how much she praised her, she could not describe how stunning she looked in the Qipao.
The Qipao outlined Xiang Xiaoyuan’s extremely slim waist. As she walked, her body swayed.
Xiang Xiaoyuan looked at herself in the mirror with satisfaction and nodded. “Okay, I’ll wear this then.”
Just as Xiang Xiaoyuan was packed up and sent to school by the driver, Gao Yuan, who was out of town on business, received a call from Lu Wanggui.
“What time is Xiao Bei’s parent-teacher conference?”
Gao Yuan quivered. “10:30 in the morning. CEO Lu, you’re back?”
Lu Wanggui hummed.
“Young Master will be very happy to know that you’re going to a parent-teacher conference for him.” Gao Yuan told Lu Wanggui everything about Lu Bei’s class, but as he spoke, he kept feeling like he had forgotten something... what was it?
It wasn’t until Lu Wanggui hung up the phone that he slapped his forehead. He had forgotten to tell CEO Lu that his wife was going to the school to hold a parent-teacher conference for Young Master today!
...
When Xiang Xiaoyuan arrived at the school, it was just in time for class to end. Before she came, she had already gotten all the information about Lu Bei from Gao Yuan. She knew that his class was on the fourth floor of the second teaching building. He was in Grade Two, Class Four.
Gao Yuan was very efficient. He had already informed the school a long time ago that Mrs. Lu would be attending Lu Bei’s parent-teacher conference. The school had sent people to wait in front of the second teaching building.
Therefore, as soon as Xiang Xiaoyuan got out of the car, she saw a female teacher wearing a white dress with a gentle smile.
“Hello, Mrs. Lu. I’m the new math teacher this semester. My surname is Yang. Director Liu asked me to come and pick you up in the conference room. This way, please.”
Xiang Xiaoyuan was slightly surprised. “Math teacher?”
At first glance, she thought she was an art teacher.
Teacher Yang seemed to be questioned often, as she walked, she said, “Very surprised, right? Many people who met me for the first time thought that I should be teaching art or Chinese.” She pointed to her skirt. “Do you think if I change my skirt into a black suit and wear black-framed glasses, I’ll look more like a math teacher?”
Xiang Xiaoyuan could not help but smile. “It’s my bad, it’s a stereotype.”
In her impression, math teachers were all serious and stiff, and most of them were male teachers.. There were really not many like Teacher Yang.
