Chapter 393: Chapter 393: Employer
“Gu Zhihan’s mom, you’ve won, please have a seat. We are about to start the parent-teacher eting soon,”
the horoom teacher took a deep breath, made a welcoming gesture to her, and then staggered towards the stage.
Facing such a worthy opponent at last!
“Okay.”
Mrs. Gu smiled, pulling Mr. Gu to sit in ngng and Gu Zhihan’s respective seats.
During the parent-teacher etings, students had to wait outside.
The corridor was now filled with students.
“Gu Zhihan, let’s go to Tong Mo’s area!” ngng said as she pulled her toward Tong Mo’s location.
When they reached her, ngng noticed Tong Mo pacing back and forth with a phone in hand, mumbling to herself.
“Why hasn’t he co yet? They took the money, do they still want to stand up?”
“What are you muttering about?” Luo ngng asked curiously as she leaned in closer, glanced at her, and then quickly looked over to Tong Mo’s empty seat, and asked, “Didn’t your dad co to attend the eting for you?”
“No… But I hired one!”
Hearing the first part, ngng was worried that Tong Mo would have to stand at the back of the class for the next week, but she spit out her water laughing at the second part.
“What did you say? You hired a parent to co?” Luo ngng’s eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at her.
She had heard of hiring before, but it was her first ti hearing about hiring a parent!
“Shh! Chun ng, why are you yelling so loudly?” Tong Mo quickly covered her mouth and dragged her into a corner.
Luo ngng’s voice ca out muffled through her fingers, “Is it because your dad didn’t want to attend the parent-teacher eting for you?”
“No, I didn’t even tell him about the parent-teacher eting,” Tong Mo flatly shared the whole situation with her, “I did so poorly on my scores this ti, if Tong Aiguo found out, he’d berate to death after the eting and might even hire a tutor, which I don’t want at all!”
“As for my stepmom, I definitely couldn’t let her attend the eting for ; she’d probably mock endlessly.”
“So yesterday I simply went to the job market and hired soone!”
Tong Mo lifted her chin with an air of pride, looking like she was quite pleased with herself.
“I’m impressed,” Luo ngng was utterly speechless by now.
But looking at her still empty seat, she couldn’t help but ask, “So, where’s the person you hired?”
If they don’t show up soon, the parent-teacher eting will be over!
Speaking of that made Tong Mo also frustrated, “I don’t know why they haven’t arrived yet. Let try calling them.”
“Hurry up and call,” Luo ngng nodded.
Just as Tong Mo was about to dial, a call ca in.
It was the recruitnt site’s number.
“Hello?”
As soon as Tong Mo answered, an apologetic voice ca through, “Ms. Tong, I’m really sorry, but the staff you reserved through us yesterday can’t co to the parent-teacher eting for you today due to health reasons…”
“Damn!” Tong Mo cursed instantly, “What do you expect to do now? Do you know if he doesn’t co to attend the eting for , I’ll have to embarrassingly stand at the back of the class listening all next week?”
Faced with Tong Mo’s roar, the voice over the phone apologized again, “I’m very sorry, Ms. Tong, but rest assured, we have already sent soone new to attend the parent-teacher eting for you, and they should be on their way now.”
