Good Evening, Mr President!

Chapter 5


Third uncle is back


Their first cla.s.s of the day was mathematics, which was what Chi Yi was sick of the most. The math teacher was coincidentally their teacher-in-charge. Therefore, Chi Yi hated this lesson.


Since she did not like it, her math results were naturally not good in any way.


“Chi Yi, 46 marks!”


The teacher-in-charge, Hu Huiping, threw her mock exam paper down. Chi Yi dejectedly went up to collect it, but just as she turned around and was planning to escape back to her seat, she was called by the teacher-in-charge. “Chi Yi, wait a minute!”


“…”


Chi Yi turned her head back and looked at her teacher, feigning innocence.


“You smell like alcohol! Where were you last night? The bar?”


“…”


Chi Yi trembled from head to toe.


Everything from last night had been an utter nightmare! She was not willing to look back at it.


Their teacher took Chi Yi’s silence as a silent affirmation. The teacher instantly blew her top and yelled at her, “You are already in your final year of high school, but not only are you not revising your work at home, but you also dare to go bar hopping?! Are your results great? You only scored 46 marks for maths, and you are placed sixth from the bottom in cla.s.s. Yet you still have the cheek to go out and play around?! Get your parents to come over today! All of you who scored the last 10 positions in cla.s.s, get your parents to head down here. I would like to know exactly how you normally study so I can find out why your results are so atrocious!!”


Chi Yi was depressed. This teacher-in-charge was so annoying. She loved to ask parents to come down over the smallest issue. Was it not the teacher’s problem when their results were problematic? What did this have to do with their parents? What a headache!


What was a bigger headache for Chi Yi, was the fact that her parents had flown to Toronto last month. Moreover, it seemed like they were not going to be coming home this year. She currently lived with her grandparents and she could not ask her grandparents to take her parents’ place and turn up, right?


“No issue. Your third uncle just happened to return from overseas yesterday!” Her grandma said through the phone.


“Third uncle?”


Chi Yi was taken aback.


The uncle who went overseas when she was eight years old?


Her impression of the man remained at the year when he was 18. That was 10 years ago. He was cool and cold at that time, like those kings that were above everyone else in comic books. When she talked to him, he would not have much variety in his expressions. But he was… extremely, extremely handsome!! It was as if there was a resplendent light shining on him wherever he went.


Chi Yi was already smitten at that time. She would constantly grovel after him and beg him to hug her. The usually icy youth would bend down and hug her into his embrace. At that time, Chi Yi felt that his chest… was something to long for!


When she thought about it now…


Tsk, tsk! She unexpectedly looked forward to meeting this third uncle of hers that she had not seen for 10 years!


On the phone, the Chi family’s grandma continued, “You are just too mischievous! Look at yourself, your third uncle has just returned and your parents are already entrusting you to your third uncle. Tonight, he will bring you to where he lives. Well, that’s good. You should be taken care of by an elder who has prestige. If not, tearing this house down wouldn’t be enough for you.”


“Grandma, do you not want me anymore?” Chi Yi pretended to cry.


“What nonsense is that! You know that Grandma dotes on you the most, little girl! You have been spoiled by me… Alright, alright. Your third uncle will be coming to your school later on. Be good.”


“… Alright! I love you, Grandma! Mua~”


“Mua~”


After acting coquettishly with her Grandma for a while more, Chi Yi hung up the call.
