Seventies Sweetheart: From Breakup to Billionaire-Chapter 190 - 187: Do You Have a Problem With Me?

Mrs. Lin knows her son better than anyone.

Moreover, Ge Yuanxin came back safely, so how could she blame Mrs. Lin?

"Alright, let’s make dinner now. We’ve been busy all day, and I’m feeling a bit hungry."

Mrs. Lin seemed to come alive at that moment and cheerfully said, "Yuanyi just said he wants to eat handmade noodles, so let’s have that tonight. Mrs. Ge, you go wash up and take a break, I’ll do the cooking today."

"Okay, then I won’t be polite with you."

Lin Xiang and Ge Yuanyi exchanged a glance without saying a word, and they moved into Lin Xiang’s room in harmony.

No one brought up the matter of Ge Yuanxin’s disappearance.

Lin Xiang took a stack of test papers from the table. "These are the test papers I got from the teachers. I wrote the answers on paper myself, so the sheets are still clean. When I go to school, you can come to my room and work on them. Just use a pencil, and when I come back from school in the afternoon, I’ll grade them for you and explain any mistakes. How does that sound?"

Given Ge Yuanyi’s current situation, he’s not suitable to return to school, but Lin Xiang believes that with Ge Yuanyi’s intelligence, combined with her hard work and his guidance, there’s no problem in passing the university exams.

Ge Yuanyi was happy for a moment, but then his mood turned low again, "But I’ve already dropped out. According to the rules, I’m not eligible to take the college entrance exam."

Lin Xiang thought for a moment, "I’ll talk to Teacher Yu tomorrow and find out the situation. There’s always a way, and no matter what, you can’t slack off on your studies."

"Okay!"

Meanwhile, in the room.

Aunt Ge sat on Ge Yuanyi’s bed, staring at Ge Yuanxin who had his back to her.

Acting asleep, Ge Yuanxin felt as if two holes were being burned into his back, and finally turned around to face Aunt Ge.

"Did Ge Yuanyi tell you everything?"

"Yuanxin, Mom won’t stop you from doing what you want, but I only have one request: make sure you’re safe, and don’t drag Yuanyi down with you anymore."

That night, if it hadn’t been for Ge Yuanxin’s former comrades arriving in time to save Ge Yuanyi, the consequences would have been far worse than they are now.

Even so, the rumors were a nearly overwhelming disaster for Ge Yuanyi.

Ge Yuanxin lowered his eyes, "There are still a few members of that gang on the loose, and most importantly, they possess treasures from our country. I have leads and evidence, which I’ve handed over, and appropriate personnel will arrest them. During this time, there will also be protection for our family, so nothing like before will happen again."

Aunt Ge felt conflicted seeing Ge Yuanxin like this and sighed, "Mom knows you have a plan, so I won’t stop you."

Ge Yuanxin’s lips moved slightly, and after a while, he whispered a thank you.

The next morning, during a break, Lin Xiang went to the office to find Yu Xiumei.

Yu Xiumei was grading papers, and when she saw Lin Xiang, she didn’t look up, handing her a stack of papers along with a red pen, "Next period is physics. You don’t need to attend class; help me grade these papers instead, I’m a bit overwhelmed right now."

The physics teacher for the third year group was sitting opposite Yu Xiumei and was instantly displeased, "What do you mean, she doesn’t need to attend class? That’s not right, Teacher Yu!"

"Lin Xiang scored in the high eighties and nineties on both mock exams. She’s mastered what’s in the textbooks. Do you think she still needs to attend class?"

Teacher Zhang grudgingly shut his mouth.

He just lacked the ability to teach Lin Xiang adequately.

Such a promising student would flourish even further if she were studying at the county’s No. 1 High or even the city’s No. 1 High because those schools’ teachers could help raise her scores further.

The politics teacher raised his head from behind a pile of books, "This student Lin Xiang is great in every subject except politics, where she’s absolutely hopeless! If you didn’t fill every question on the paper, I would start to suspect you have a grudge against me!"

Of course, she had no grudge; it’s just that politics is indeed a bit challenging for Lin Xiang right now.

She plans to set politics aside for the moment and focus on studying recent political trends thoroughly in the last three months before the college entrance exams.

With Teacher Zhang’s tacit approval, Lin Xiang decided to skip a class and helped Yu Xiumei grade the papers.

The two divided the work and completed grading all the papers in just half a period.

"There’s still time, if you don’t want to go back to class, you can stay in the office and review politics for a while," Yu Xiumei suggested, "Your grades in other subjects are enough to get into college, but since your politics score is dragging down the overall score, you will only make it to an average university, which would really be a pity."

Lin Xiang nodded repeatedly, "Teacher Yu is right, I will definitely work hard to improve my politics grades. But right now, there’s something I want to ask you."

A good student always stays polite in front of teachers, especially since Lin Xiang was the savior of Yu Xiumei’s daughter.

"You mean you want Ge Yuanyi to take this year’s college entrance exam too?"

"I’m currently assessing her skills. If her grades are good, she’ll take the exam this year. If not, then next year. The timing doesn’t matter as much as finding a solution for the issue of Ge Yuanyi’s enrollment status. Is there any way around this?"

Yu Xiumei didn’t directly answer Lin Xiang’s question but instead glanced at her, "Didn’t I advise you before not to stay at the Ge Family’s house? Do you know why Ge Yuanyi doesn’t come to school?"

Lin Xiang knew but couldn’t say.

"She was retaliated against! Her brother provoked someone, and when they couldn’t find him, they took it out on her! A perfectly good young girl had her life ruined by this incident!"

"If you continue to live at the Ge Family’s house, how can you risk those people seeking revenge against you? Lin Xiang, you must heed your teacher’s advice and not gamble with your future!"

Yu Xiumei earnestly tried to persuade Lin Xiang.

Lin Xiang sensed her goodwill and didn’t want to be too direct, promising she would move away from the Ge Family’s house in due course.

Seeing this, Yu Xiumei dropped the subject.

"The issue of Ge Yuanyi dropping out was never officially reported by the school, so she is technically just on leave. If she wants to take the college entrance exam, all she has to do is come to school before registration, and the teachers will naturally handle all the paperwork for her."

Ge Yuanyi has good grades and is a promising student for college, and taking the college entrance exams would bring renown to the school, so reinstating her enrollment is not difficult.

"But Ge Yuanyi is still a sophomore. If you want her to take the exams with you this year, it might be challenging unless she, like you, clears the exams the school conducts for jumping grades."
