Xiao Qi said he had something to tell Lian Shouxin. Lian Manman saw Xiao Qi's serious expression and stopped to listen to what it was all about.
"What is it?" Lian Shouxin asked.
"It's about Liulang." Xiao Qi sat down on a nearby chair and said, "He brought it up again today, saying he doesn't want to go to school anymore."
"Did he say that again today?" Lian Shouxin pondered for a while before speaking slowly.
"Yes." Xiao Qi nodded.
Liulang has expressed his desire to quit school more than once. In fact, over the past two years, it has been Lian Shouxin who has been urging him, with Xiao Qi helping to keep an eye on Liulang attending classes.
When it comes to studying, truly, some people have the gift, while others lack the talent and need to put in more effort. Liulang has no talent when it comes to studying. In life, he's not the smartest kid, and when it comes to studying, using the village folks' slang, he's "so dull he doesn't even stick in the mud."
