After clearing away the plates, Li Shiyi and two employees were taking away the tableware that everyone had used one by one in the practice venue where the competition team was located.
Then he said goodbye to the leading teacher and left the room with the tableware.
While going downstairs, the employees accompanying me couldn't help but sigh.
"Their competition this time must be quite important, right? They don't even have time to go to the cafeteria to eat."
"I heard that getting good grades can bring glory to the school, but I don't know the details."
With such words coming from her mouth, Li Shiyi walked down the stairs.
The two female employees following behind lamented the seriousness of the students. The already warmer weather made the three of them take off their winter work clothes and travel lightly, so there was no inconvenience in their movements.
Arriving downstairs, he responded to the other two's questions from time to time. Just as he was about to walk towards the cafeteria, his eyes accidentally caught sight of the two in the music classroom.
Her original stride suddenly stopped, causing the two employees following her to almost bump into her.
Fortunately, the car was stopped due to emergency, and in the direction Li Shiyi was looking, she saw Zhao Xuanying who was talking to Lin Nianwei.
Not only Li Shiyi, but also all the staff in the cafeteria were extremely impressed by this female student who always got special privileges when dining in the cafeteria.
I heard that she was an acquaintance of the canteen owner. Every time Zhao Xuanying went to eat, she always got generous preferential treatment in the meals she brought.
After blinking several times, one of the younger female employees witnessed this and let out a surprised sound.
"Isn't that Zhao Xuanying? What is she doing? She made a mistake and was taught a lesson by the teacher?"
"She studies very well, so she shouldn't have to be lectured."
Another female employee retorted that she had been in the job earlier and had been in contact with Zhao Xuanying longer, and she was considered a veteran staff member in the school cafeteria.
After she saw clearly the figure talking to Zhao Xuanying, she spoke in surprise.
"Our boss's girlfriend? Did they know each other?"
"Girlfriend? Is this teacher our boss's girlfriend?"
"you do not know?"
"When I first heard about it, I thought our boss was single."
"Don't think about it. Even if you are single, you have no chance. Besides, his mind is not in the cafeteria right now."
"I didn't!"
"I think you understand what you mean~"
"No no!"
You said something to me, and all the conversation between the two reached Li Shiyi's ears.
Unlike the two little girls beside her who were making fun of each other, she, who was well aware of their relationship, had completely different thoughts after witnessing this scene.
Although Lin Nianwei's attitude towards Zhao Xuanying has always been much kinder than hers.
But after all, she is a person who has experienced a failed marriage. She has long noticed that Lin Nianwei seems not to care about Zhao Xuanying's existence, but in fact she is more wary than anyone else.
These two people are actually talking together now...
Although they were far apart and could not clearly hear the content of the conversation between the two, Li Shiyi, who was good at observing words and emotions, could tell at a glance that the current atmosphere of the conversation was not relaxed.
Looking at Lin Nianwei's solemn face and her mouth that kept opening and closing...
"Let's go back to the cafeteria first. I have to pick up the children early today."
"Okay~"
The leader had already spoken, but the employees still had no reason to fish. Carrying the retrieved plates, they followed Li Shiyi and strode towards the cafeteria.
The group of people arrived at the entrance of the canteen, and just as they were about to enter directly from the back door, Li Shiyi, a sharp-eyed person, spotted two figures at the canteen.
Although I don’t have much friendship with these two people, I can still be considered familiar with them.
Li Shiyi fell into silence after witnessing this scene. Afterwards, she called out to the employee who had already entered. After handing over the plate she was carrying, she turned around and walked towards the small shop.
Shen Yunli, who was helping run errands, had no idea about Li Shiyi approaching from behind.
As a thank you gift for running errands, Shen Yunli was not polite at all.
I chose two bottles of drinks and some snacks. Although I didn't spend much, the amount should not be underestimated.
As an English teacher, Duan Yining's personality is very popular with students, so the relationship between them is less like a teacher-student relationship and more like a friend.
Faced with the fact that her students bought so many snacks, Duan Yining was not dissatisfied at all and just paid the money with a smile.
After taking the filled bag, he handed it into Shen Yunli's hands.
"Do you like soda? I see you want two more bottles."
"There is a bottle for Zhao Xuanying."
Answering the teacher's doubts, Shen Yunli responded with a smile.
"Thank you, teacher. You can get such benefits from running errands. Next time you forget your wallet, remember to send me a short message and I will come and give it to you."
"I won't forget to bring it next time!"
"I say that every time. Teacher, you often forget to bring your textbooks in class, don't you? It's amazing that you can change it."
"Don't joke with the teacher!"
"I know, teacher, go and eat quickly, otherwise the food in the cafeteria will be gone."
"Well, then you go back first."
Shen Yunli, who said goodbye to her teacher, turned and ran out of the canteen, almost collided with Li Shiyi who was coming in. Fortunately, she was more agile and stopped the car in a hurry, thus avoiding a collision.
After seeing the person standing in front of him clearly, the smile that originally existed on his face slowly faded.
Although she did not have much friendship with Li Shiyi, the two met frequently, not to mention that Shen Yunli could often hear stories about each other from Zhao Xuanying in the past.
I don't like it much, but I don't hate it either.
So we still said hello after meeting.
After saying hello, Shen Yunli planned to take a detour and leave. Just after walking down two or three steps, Li Shiyi's voice came from behind.
Because of this, the footsteps also stopped.
"Has something happened recently?"
"..."
Shen Yunli, who responded silently and stopped for several seconds, turned around and looked at Li Shiyi with doubts in her eyes.
After hesitating for a moment, he asked.
"What?"
"I asked, has something happened to your friend Zhao Xuanying recently?"
"No, what's wrong?"
"Then she..."
She just wanted to say what she saw, but when the words reached her lips, Li Shiyi swallowed them back.
He pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment before shaking his head.
"It's okay... By the way, why doesn't Liu Weicheng come to school recently? Didn't he often come to pick up Teacher Lin from get off work in the past?"
"He is your boss, you don't even know how I know the reason."
Hearing that the topic shifted to Liu Weicheng, Shen Yunli's expression suddenly changed.
He glanced up and down, then slowly spoke.
"Auntie...you don't still have thoughts about him, do you?"
