"Study well," said Teacher Jin to the three children, her heart aching. From now on, they would not be her students, but even so, she wanted them to perform well in their exams and attend good schools.
"Teacher, we have to go back. Class is about to start," Tang Yuxin glanced at her watch. They'd already missed one lesson while here and didn't want to miss the next. For them, each high school class was incredibly important, especially for her.
"Go then," Teacher Jin managed a bitter smile, holding back her tears. But after the students had left, she could not help crying.
Her students, her excellent students, had they been stolen away from her?
How could she not be sad? How could she not feel terrible? Her whole day was gloomy. Other teachers were congratulating her on her class's performance because the students at the top, Tang Yuxin and her group, had significantly boosted the overall class's score, their total score unexpectedly placing them second in the grade.
