I Became the Male Lead's Stepmother After Transmigrating-Chapter 15

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Uncle Lu was too busy at work, especially after the divorce. He devoted all his time to his work. Every time the school needed a parent to come forward, the assistant would replace him. Out of the ten parent-teacher conferences, Uncle Lu would only come at most once, and it would be the kind attendance where he would leave after saying a few words to the teacher.

Uncle Lu said that Lu Bei’s grades were good, so he did not need to worry too much. However, what Uncle Lu did not know was that what Brother Bei needed the most at that time was his father’s attention. That was why he did not study hard and fought with others. He became a problematic student in the eyes of the teachers. Even so, Uncle Lu did not attend his parent-teacher conference. Every time the teachers called to complain, Uncle Lu would settle it with a few sentences.

The words “parent-teacher conference” were about to become Lu Bei’s forbidden words.

Wei Zihang secretly pinched his thigh for speaking too much! He grimaced in pain and quickly changed the topic. An Yu, who was at the side, also changed the topic.

The few of them chatted with Lu Bei for a while. Seeing that Lu Bei was getting more and more tired, they were going to get up and leave, with An Yu at the back. She felt sorry for Lu Bei who looked tired. Wei Zihang’s words just now made him feel bad.

She wanted to do something for Lu Bei to make him happy.

Thus, while the others were chatting and laughing as they walked out, An Yu turned around and walked upstairs.

“Knock knock knock.”

“Aunty, are you inside?”

The door opened, revealing An Yu’s exquisite and beautiful face. Xiang Xiaoyuan was surprised. “What’s wrong?”

Why did the school belle suddenly come to look for her? Did something happen to Lu Bei?

“Aunty, I have something to ask for your help.” An Yu said in a low voice, “After this final exam, the school will arrange a parent-teacher conference. Aunty, the parent-teacher conference only counts if the parents come.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan was stunned. “Parents are required to attend?”

An Yu quickly nodded. “Yes. Of course, parents are required to attend the parent-teacher conference. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be called a parent-teacher conference.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan looked surprised. “But Lu Bei’s father hasn’t returned from his overseas business trip. I heard that Lu Bei’s mother is temporarily out of the country...” Could it be that An Yu wanted her to attend Lu Bei’s parent-teacher conference? It wasn’t appropriate, right?

“It’s alright. As long as you help, Aunty, it’ll definitely work.”

An Yu nervously tugged at her clothes and tried her best to persuade her. “I can’t think of anyone other than you, Aunty.”

Didn’t everyone say that Uncle Lu liked his new wife very much? If Aunty personally asked Uncle Lu to come back to attend Lu Bei’s parent-teacher conference, it would definitely be successful, right? f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m

Xiang Xiaoyuan didn’t know that she had misunderstood An Yu’s thoughts. She just felt that this female side character was quite bold, asking her the stepmother to attend Lu Bei’s parent-teacher conference.

However, Xiang Xiaoyuan had no interest in the parent-teacher conference. Moreover, she also thought that Lu Bei would not be very happy to see her on the day of the parent-teacher conference. He would even think that she had an ulterior motive. She would not do such a thankless task.

After sending An Yu off with a few vague answers, Xiang Xiaoyuan put the matter to the back of her mind.

She didn’t expect to receive a call from Lu Wanggui’s assistant the next day.

As Lu Wanggui’s assistant, Gao Yuan was also very busy. Lu Wanggui was on a business trip, and there were many things in the company that required him to communicate back and forth. He was even busier than some of the senior leaders of the company. However, even though he was busy, he still kept an eye on Lu Bei’s movements. After knowing that he was sick and had a fever, he quickly dialed Xiang Xiaoyuan’s phone number.

“Yes, everything is fine now. He’ll be able to go back to school in two days,” Xiang Xiaoyuan reported.

She finally understood that Assistant Gao Yuan was like a spy. He would keep an eye on her at all times and then report back to Lu Wanggui. However, she didn’t care about Gao Yuan’s snitching behaviour. If she were Lu Wanggui, she would also be worried that her son was with a strange woman.

Gao Yuan could hear the coldness in Xiang Xiaoyuan’s words, and his heart tightened.

Ever since the mistake of accidentally snitching last time, when he reported about his wife to Lu Wanggui, he would make a rough draft to make sure there were no inappropriate words before dialing Lu Wanggui’s number.

Now, not only did he have Lu Wanggui as his boss, he also had a lady boss. As a worker, he had to reconcile the relationship between the two.

Gao Yuan thought that he was shouldering a heavy responsibility. After knowing that Lu Bei’s illness was not a big problem, he thought of something, “Oh right, Madam, there will be a parent-teacher meeting at the school in a few days. In the past, Young Master’s parent-teacher meetings were all attended by me, but I’m going on a business trip. There’s a problem with a factory under the company. I need to go on a field trip... Can I trouble Madam to attend the parent-teacher meeting?”

Xiang Xiaoyuan’s first reaction was to refuse.

What a joke! How could she possibly attend a parent-teacher conference for Lu Bei!

It was fine for An Yu to make this request. She was young and insensible, but what was wrong with this Assistant Gao? He was already so old, couldn’t he tell what’s wrong and what’s right?
