After having a short conversation with Hong Yu, Heero found this Hope Preschool was more like daycare rather than school. The parents dropped their children here and picked them up when they finished their work.
Yes, most parents were busy with their work and have their children entered preschool. At least, most of the children had the sa circumstance.
As for his co-worker Teacher Hong Yu, she had a cheerful personality and often smiling as they talked. Especially for today, she was quite happy with him here.
Oh, she also the third person who did not look at him with a strange or suspicion gaze because of the clothes he wore. The first one was Teacher Lin and the second one was Han Ying. Hong Yu instead quite talkative despite today was their first eting.
Before he ca, Teacher Hong Yu took care of the children alone. So she was quite happy when she got a partner. She enthusiastically told Heero her 2 years of teaching experience after knowing this was the first ti Heero beca a teacher.
Right at 7 am, Heero had to be in class one, waiting for the children to co. Heero did not wait to wait for a long ti, two little girls and their mothers entered the class one.
The two little girls were wearing blue Hope Preschool uniform while carrying a bag. Heero felt sowhat familiar with the outfit of these two little girls. Without doubt, Heero had seen the uniform but he did not rember.
The two little girls seed reluctant to part with their mother. Even the girl with a blue ribbon was crying after knowing her mother would leave her here. Because of the girl with a blue ribbon was crying, the other one also crying.
However, with two years of teaching experiences in Hope Preschool. Hong Yu coaxed the two little girls and they stopped crying. As expected of experts.
anwhile, Heero introduced himself to the two little girl's mother.
"Hello~ I am a new teacher here, Teacher Xing."
He kept receiving a strange and suspicion gaze from the two mothers. So he took this chance to introduce himself, polite and a fresh smile. Each ti he greeting or talking to soone, Heero was giving out a vibe of an energetic and kind young man.
The two mothers were the sa as the others that he t all this ti. After having a little conversation with Heero, the two mothers left the school with ease.
Afterward, more and more children were coming. Most of them were delivered to the school by their mother. Everything went smoothly, each ti there was soone crying, Teacher Hong Yu used her coax technique to smooth things over. As expected of an expert.
Heero anwhile got in touch with the guardians. He was a new teacher after all. He had to get familiar with the children's parents, so they would not worry to entrust their children to a weird stranger like him.
Heero was going quite well until he found a familiar face.
"Huh, Big Brother, what are you doing here?!"
Heero looked toward the familiar and found Lan Lan. Yes, Butcher Wang's daughter, Lan Lan. Lan Lan was accompanied by a woman that looked younger than Butcher Wang.
Heero could see the little Lan Lan sowhat resemblance with the woman, especially their eyes. Lan Lan really did inherit her mother's traits.
'No wonder Butcher Wang and Lan Lan do not look alike' Thought Heero as he approached Lan Lan.
He rubbed Lan Lan's hair, "Good morning, Lan Lan. I am working here of course. I am a new teacher."
After that, Heero stood up and greeted Lan Lan's mother, "Hello, Lan Lan mother. I am a new teacher here, you can call Teacher Xing."
"Oh, hello~ I am Lan Lan mother, Wang Mi. I have heard a lot about you from Lan Lan. Thank you for helping my daughter yesterday~" Wang Mi slightly bowed her head to express her thanks.
It seed Lan Lan already told her mother about yesterday's incident (Lan Lan fell).
Heero also bowed his head slightly.
anwhile, Lan Lan was casting a dubious look toward Heero. She seed could not believe Heero beca her teacher.
"Big Brother, how co you can be a teacher while you did not know about the clock?" Lan Lan finally could not beat to ask this out. In her mind, Heero seed to be unreliable as a teacher.
Heero's smile stiffened. After hearing Lan Lan's explanation regarding the clock, Heero knew the clock was a basic thing here. He did not know about the clock, then what he could teach to the children if the children were more knowledgeable than the teacher?
Lan Lan might be thinking like this. However, Heero could not refute Lan Lan. He really did know a little about this world.
"You don't even know how to use chopsticks, but you can be a teacher, " Lan Lan added.
"Even Big Brother can be a teacher this ans Lan Lan also could be a teacher" Lan Lan's eyes sparkled as she ca into a conclusion.
Heero was crying inside, a little girl like Lan Lan did not put him as a teacher at all. But he knew that Lan Lan's thought was understandable. A teacher who did not such basic things, the clock and the chopsticks. Children like Lan Lan would think he was not good enough to be a teacher.
'I have to work hard to impress the children.' Heero determined to convince Lan Lan with his ability.
"Qing Lan!" Wang called Lan Lan in high intonation.
Lan Lan stuck her tongue out and apologized. Even though she apologized, it was clear she was not seriously apologizing. She just did it because of his mother reprimanded her.
Heero squatted down and rubbed Lan Lan's hair again.
After that, Lan Lan waves her tiny hand toward Heero. Heero had his head close to Lan Lan.
"Big Brother, if you don't know sothing, you can ask . But don't forget the sweets, okay?"
After that, Lan Lan ran to the classroom. Leaving Heero stiffened as he smiled wryly there.
"I am sorry, Lan Lan is so mischievous."
"It's okay, she is still a child after all, " Heero waved his hand embarrassedly.
"I have to leave now, please take care of Lan Lan." Wang Mi bowed her head once again.
Heero returned with the sa gesture and smile.
Wang Mi turned around but after a few steps, she turned back and said, "Please stop at our shop, we will treat you a al."
After that, Wang Mi truly left the Hope Preschool.
Except for Lan Lan episode, everything went smooth for Heero. It just the special attention children, Shen Miao, Jiang Yujin, and Kang Myung Hee acted differently with the other children.
Right at 8 am, all children arrived in the classroom, 31 children in total. They sat in their respective seat and had their attention on Heero. Yes, they all were looking toward Heero.
Heero was a new face and added with the clothes he wore. The children kept looking toward Heero, curiosity filled their eyes.
"Good Morning~" Teacher Hong Yu started the class with a greeting.
"Good Morning, Teacher Hong~" The children returned the greeting in unison. However, their gaze still glued toward Heero.
"It seems you guys are curious with him. He is our new teacher, Teacher Xing~. Starting today, he will be your teacher as well~"
Teacher Hong Yu introduced Heero to the class with her sweet voice.
"Good Morning, Teacher Xing~" The children greeted Heero in unison.
Heero stepped forward and returned the greeting. Everything went smoothly and the class started with the new teacher introduction. After a brief introduction, Teacher Hong Yu took over the class.
Heero knew his duty was to watch how Teacher Hong Yu taught the children while giving her assistance.
Even though Heero did a brief introduction, the children's gazes were still at him. It was clear the brief introduction from Heero could not satisfy children's curiosity.
Teacher Hong Yu also realized this, "Do you have a question for Teacher Xing?"
As soon as Teacher Hong Yu threw this inquiry out, 12 children raised their hand. Teacher Hong Yu picked a little girl called Man Man.
"Teacher Xing, what clothes do you wear? Is it kimono? Teacher Xing, are you coming from the south area? Teacher Xing, what South Area does look like? Teacher Xing"
"Stop! Stop! Stop" Heero stopped Man Man. This little girl was sure having a lot of questions for him.
"Man Man, ask one by one, okay?" Heero was sowhat flustered. He was afraid if Man Man would ask sothing he did not know. That was why, before Man Man got to that point, he stopped Man Man.
"First, my mother made clothes for , it's not a kimono. Second, I am not from the South Area, I co from the outside city. Third, I have been in the South Area for a while, it's the sa as here." Heero answered what Man Man asked him.
Teacher Hong Yu laughed inwardly as she saw Heero flustered. Looking at Heero, it brought the mories of the first ti she beca a teacher. At that ti, she was more flustered than the current Heero.
Just like that, the class started with QnA between Heero and the children. It was a great success as the children accepted Heero quickly.
