Mr. Zhuang pushed open the partially closed classroom door, and the students huddled together immediately scattered, running back to their seats.
Mr. Zhuang stood at the doorway for a moment before stepping up to the podium.
He looked down at the students seated behind their desks and, after a long pause, sighed softly, "Tomorrow is the exam, and this may very well be our last test. Although there are only a few short days left, I hope you will remain serious as you always have been."
What he meant was, he had agreed to let the students withdraw from school.
In fact, he had no choice but to agree. The tuition fee was paid annually, and the payment for the new year was due after the New Year. Even if Mr. Zhuang was willing to reduce the fee, the parents of the students would no longer agree to send their children to school.
Apart from tuition, they also had to pay for their children's food.
