For example, Yang Liu who brought her here, was studying for her doctorate at a young age. She graduated from a famous school, and the other teachers all had impressive resumes. How could a normal high school teacher have such high qualifications? Moreover, the school’s facilities include the music room, the art room, the large library, the swimming pool, and the gymnasium. The school’s environment was also very good. The greenery was pleasing to the eye, comparable to a high-class scenic spot. Every time Xiang Xiaoyuan came to the school, she would sigh at the luxury of the aristocratic school.
With that, these parents were still not satisfied?
Could it be that this was the difference in expectation between the poor and the rich?
While Xiang Xiaoyuan was complaining, the discussions of the parents continued.
“Yeah, if it weren’t for the fact that I really don’t have time, I would really like to keep an eye on the school every day and let them do their jobs properly, so that they wouldn’t cause trouble so easily.”
“Who isn’t? Although I’m not as busy as you guys, I still have quite a few shops. It’s already tiring enough to supervise the shops every day. How can I still have the energy to care about the school?”
“That’s why we’re here for the parent-teacher conference. We just want to see if there’s anyone who can take the initiative to step forward and take over the responsibility. Of course, we won’t let you guys work for free. We’ll have to show our appreciation.”
Finally, they got to the point!
Xiang Xiaoyuan couldn’t help but sit up straight. When all the parents helplessly expressed that they didn’t have time and were too busy, hoping that someone would volunteer themselves, she hesitantly said in a low voice, “I’m sorry, this is my first time dealing with these things. Hearing what you guys said, I’m also worried about our Lu Bei. Is it that if I come over every day to take a look, the school will be more cautious and more attentive towards the students? If that’s the case, I think I can come over every day.”
After saying that, she pursed her lips in embarrassment again. “I, I’m not as busy as you guys, and I’m not as capable as you guys. I can only do this little thing. Of course, I’ve never done this kind of thing before, and I don’t know if I can do it well…”
The parents looked at each other and were a little moved.
They knew Xiang Xiaoyuan’s identity. She was Lu Wanggui’s new wife and Lu Bei’s stepmother. She had just entered the Lu family, and it was time for her to step up. She would definitely do her best to handle matters related to Lu Bei.
Thinking about it, Xiang Xiaoyuan was actually the most suitable candidate!
“It doesn’t matter. We actually don’t have the ability either. We were just trying things out most of the time.”
“Moreover, it doesn’t require much experience to do these things. For example, Secretary Liu, who I found previously, graduated from a proper university. Her ability is not bad, and she knows how to speak. However, it’s not her own child, so she didn’t care. She colluded with the person in charge of the school to fill her own pocket. It can be seen that this matter doesn’t have much to do with ability.”
“That’s right, as long as you have a heart that loves your child.”
Under the support of the others, Xiang Xiaoyuan lowered her head in embarrassment. “Actually, I was too impulsive. I actually recommended myself in front of all the parents. I was also scared by what you guys said just now, so I spoke rashly. All the parents are very busy with their work. As long as you don’t mind that I have no experience and that my work might not be so perfect, then I will be…”
The person-in-charge!
Unfortunately, before she could finish her sentence, she heard someone shout from outside the door, “CEO Lu is here.”
CEO Lu?
Xiang Xiaoyuan was shocked. She suddenly raised her head to look at the door and saw a man slowly walking in from outside.
He was wearing a formal suit and his back was straight. There was a hint of a smile on his handsome face, but it was unable to make people truly relax. Instead, she felt like she was being targeted by a ferocious beast and was constantly on edge.
Xiang Xiaoyuan could not help but straighten her body and look at the man’s face without moving. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, which made him appear calm and refined. He exuded the charm of a mature man.
Xiang Xiaoyuan’s brain went blank for a moment.
This, this is Lu Wanggui? ! He’s so handsome? !
The novel did not mention that Lu Wanggui’s figure and appearance were so heaven-defying!
Xiang Xiaoyuan was annoyed. She wanted to strangle the author of the novel. Why didn’t they describe the appearance of this handsome man more?! It was a pity that when she first transmigrated into the novel, she had thought that Lu Wanggui was a middle-aged greasy man with a beer belly!
Of course, it was not Xiang Xiaoyuan’s fault that she had such a thought. Based on how most men were, no middle-aged man could escape the curse of middle-aged obesity. Even some male celebrities who had entered middle-age did not have enough self-control and embarked on the path to obesity.
But look at Lu Wanggui. He was 39 years old, and his height was estimated to be 1.85 meters. Although one couldn’t see his body wrapped in a formal suit, Xiang Xiaoyuan could swear on her years of experience observing handsome men that he had a very strong figure, with wide shoulders and narrow waist. Standing there, he was a natural model.
