Chapter 184

Chapter 184: Wasted Studying!?Part One? School bag, pencils, eraser, pen, stationery box, as well as the textbooks for the second year of middle school, these were what Lu Shu prepared for Lu Xiaoyu.

He was pestering Lu Xiaoyu to follow him to the supermarket which Lu Xiaoyu stubbornly refused.

In the past, one of Lu Xiaoyu’s favorite things to do was to go to the supermarket with Lu Shu. Lu Shu would push the shopping cart and Lu Xiaoyu could sit inside. But she had grown out of it.

At that time, Lu Shu would frequent Luo Cheng’s largest supermarket to buy groceries as there were often times when their groceries were cheaper than outside. The bread would also be on discount when nearing towards 9pm every night and Lu Shu would occasionally buy a few to satisfy Lu Xiaoyu’s greed.

The both of them would go there to buy cheap groceries and brought their own bags as the plastic bags in the supermarket cost 30 cents each.

Lu Xiaoyu particularly liked to visit the supermarket due to the aunties and uncles or small families of 3 being around. She felt that the supermarket had a lively atmosphere.

Whenever Lu Shu headed to the side selling tomatoes, she would know that she would certainly be having fried tomato eggs the next day, and feel very delighted.

The seller and Lu Shu would whisper to each other, “The eggs today are slightly cheaper so you should stock up more. What do you think?”

Lu Xiaoyu would nod, “Yup, cheaper by 20 cents!”

At that time, Lu Shu was still selling boiled eggs for a living.

“I have prepared two pens and three refills for you. Erasers are easily misplaced so remember to put yours back inside your stationery box. And do return others theirs if you happen to pick them up. It would be best for you to bring your textbooks back but if unable to, you can leave them in class…” In fact, Lu Shu knew that the things you learned in middle school would be relearned again in high school, just more complex. And the high school content could be mastered within one year…

Lu Shu didn’t want to admit it, but studies had always been simple to him. Even without the recovery of magical energy, his future wouldn’t be too bad.

And so Lu Shu wanted Lu Xiaoyu to go to school because of the process, not the qualification.

Lu Xiaoyu carried the pink school bag reluctantly, “Your taste is so bad. How old am I now? Did you really have to buy me such a childish looking bag?”

Lu Shu wasn’t pleased, “Aren’t you just 10 years old?”

“But I’m in middle school!” Lu Xiaoyu rebutted.

Under normal circumstances, students in the second year of middle school were about 13-15 years old. But Lu Xiaoyu’s self-study had been progressing quickly and Lu Shu felt no need to follow the norms. There were others who skipped years too.

So after discussing with Li Yixiao, he agreed to let Lu Xiaoyu enroll in the second year of middle school. Of course, prior to admission, there would be a small test to prove that she had the required knowledge.

On average, the height of a ten-year-old girl was around 140cm but Lu Xiaoyu was considered tall and was already 147cm. So a 147cm girl in the second year of middle school wouldn’t be short right? For Lu Shu, he was already 169cm when he was 15 and now he’s already 180cm.

Lu Shu would keep track of both their heights on the wall beside the door by drawing a line every 3 months to mark their heights. And Lu Xiaoyu has been growing quickly.

At that time, Lu Shu was worried that this young lady wouldn’t be getting enough nutrients and that it would affect her growth. But no, in fact, she might even grow to be 170+cm.

Lu Shu felt that Lu Xiaoyu growing up to be 170cm was ideal. If she was 180cm like those models, he felt that it would be too disproportionate, but this was just his personal opinion.

Just when Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu left the house, they met grandpa Li, who was holding a middle school math textbook and was stunned, “Where are you guys going?”

“Haha, Xiaoyu’s household register is settled so I’m sending her to school today. Grandpa, you can finally rest from now on,” Lu Shu said gleefully.

Li Xianyi was devastated! At this age, I’m almost done with self-studying middle school math and now you’re telling me she’s going to school?

So… I’ve learned all that for nothing?!

“From Li Xianyi’s distress, +588!”

Li Xianyi suddenly threw the textbook onto the ground and went back… The condition of my heart is not so good so I don’t want to talk to anyone for a month!

Lu Xiaoyu saw the textbook on the ground and murmured, “Do you think grandpa will still buy me snacks?”

“That would be quite impossible…” Lu Shu had forgotten about this… Maybe he could let the grandpa give Lu Xiaoyu some supplementary lessons at night? So that he could put his learning to use?

…

Lu Shu first went to look for Li Yixiao to settle the admission, and although there were many obvious rules violations, Li Yixiao still brought them over.

Leaving the student affairs office, it was 10am and Lu Shu realized those old stakeholders in school were all afraid of Li Yixiao…

The student affairs director said that this girl did not have any schooling experience and cannot be admitted. But after Li Yixiao smiled coldly at him without saying a word, he immediately gave in.

In fact, the director was also desperate. Logical reasons could never overcome violence. In today’s morning meeting, they were reviewing the standard of the school management due to this principal’s incapabilities.

Just yesterday afternoon, the director caught a young student couple. But when Li Yixiao passed by, he started chatting with this couple and was having a great time. In the end, he even wished them a happy wedding and be blessed with children!

Everyone thought that this couldn’t go on and a meeting was needed!

In the end, during the morning meeting, the fierce tiger mark appeared behind Li Yixiao, as if he wanted to tell everyone to stop talking.

Can’t offend him…

The director called the form teacher of a middle second-year class over, “Hey, this is the student joining your class. Name’s Lu Xiaoyu and she’s a little younger but she self-studied.”

The form teacher was a male, wearing black-framed spectacles, looked in his mid-40s and had a stern vibe.

The little squirrel on Lu Xiaoyu’s head looked weird and he had never seen a student bring a pet to school. And this parent looked rather young but was dressed maturely.

Never mind that, he looked at Lu Shu, “You’re the parent, right? How do I address you? My name’s Zhang Haitao.”

“Lu Shu, Hello Mr. Zhang,” Lu Shu shook hands with Zhang Haitao.

Zhang Haitao nodded, “You can leave your child to me. Do give me your phone number later as I like to keep in contact with the parents about their child’s progress. Are you very busy at work? Do you have time to guide your child in her homework?”

Lu Shu replied, “Don’t worry, I’m in sophomore Class 3 of high school just upstairs. You can find me whenever!”

Zhang Haitao, “???”

“From Zhang Haitao’s distress, +299!”
