Zhao Zhengfei and Gu Jiaojiao walked across the school's dirt grounds. In the distance stood a row of gray brick, tile-roofed buildings. The entire commune had only one middle school, and even that wasn't very large.
They walked for a while, and Zhao Zhengfei still hadn't thought of how to begin.
In the end, Gu Jiaojiao was the one to speak first.
"Just say what's on your mind, Teacher Zhao."
Hearing this, Zhao Zhengfei couldn't help but scratch his head. Gu Jiaojiao's all-business attitude was quite similar to Leng Yuan's.
He decided not to hesitate any longer and spoke directly.
"Teacher Gu, you probably know that the villages don't have their own middle schools. Students from all the surrounding villages come to the commune for their education, and this is the only middle school in the entire commune."
Gu Jiaojiao nodded.
'She was aware of this, of course.'
