Reborn in 2000: Starting from Pursuing the Pure High School Beauty Desk Mate Chapter 301 : The Heartbroken Beautiful Teacher

Chapter 301: The Heartbroken Beautiful Teacher

Faced with Chen Fan's question, Wen Wan's expression was rather strange.

Nervous, awkward, and a bit at a loss.

Chen Fan confird that he wasn't mistaken.

That's why he felt perplexed.

Given the extent of his and Wen Wan's acquaintance, the two could already be considered friends.

A year ago when Wen Wan left, she clearly wasn't like this.

Why did she now seem like a different person altogether, making Chen Fan feel as if she were a stranger?

Wen Wan didn't know what Chen Fan was thinking, lowering her head to look at the disposable chopsticks in her hand, remaining silent for a while before finally speaking slowly.

"What to say?"

Chen Fan thought for a mont, then asked his first question.

"When did you co back?"

This ti, Wen Wan didn't refuse to answer the question.

"I've been back for a while now."

"Then why didn't you let ...let us know when you ca back?"

Chen Fan stared at Wen Wan, "I've always thought that besides our teacher-student relationship, and landlord-tenant relationship, we could also be considered friends who understand each other."

Wen Wan's expression seed a bit unnatural, hesitating for quite a while before speaking.

"I...I changed my phone card, and all the contacts in it disappeared."

Chen Fan was taken aback, not expecting this reason.

"Then...why did you co back?"

This was Chen Fan's main concern.

"I rember when you left back then, you said you might settle down in Yanjing, or travel with your aunt for her dical treatnt, right?"

Wen Wan remained silent, not saying a word.

Chen Fan felt a bit helpless.

At this mont, the boss brought over the beef noodle soup.

"Miss, your noodles are ready."

"Thank you, boss."

Seeing that there was only one bowl of noodles, Wen Wan then realized she had forgotten to order one for Chen Fan.

"Boss, please bring another bowl..."

Chen Fan raised his hand: "No need. I just ate."

Upon hearing this, Wen Wan lowered her head and began eating the noodles in small bites.

"By the way, I haven't asked you yet, how is auntie doing?"

As Wen Wan was eating with her head lowered, her movents paused for a mont. After a while, she finally spoke.

"My mom...is gone."

"Gone. Where did she go?"

Chen Fan's expression suddenly froze, full of disbelief.

"Auntie...how could that be possible? When did this happen?"

Wen Wan looked up at Chen Fan, her eyes reddened.

"This March."

Chen Fan thought about it, so this had only happened a little over two months ago.

"Wasn't she supposed to go to Yanjing for treatnt? How could she have..."

Wen Wan put down her chopsticks and spoke softly, "I accompanied her to Yanjing, we went to see the places where she and my dad studied, we went to every place she still had mories of...after that...my mom passed away."

"Before leaving, she told that the luckiest thing in her life was eting my dad, and she had no regrets."

"She hoped that after her death, her ashes could be brought back to Yunhai and buried together with my dad."

Chen Fan thought to himself, so this was the reason why you ca back again.

However, Chen Fan still didn't quite understand.

"Didn't auntie's condition improve?"

Wen Wan shook her head: "It was always very serious. After the surgery in Yunhai, her body deteriorated rapidly."

"When we went to Yanjing, during that period when we visited so many places, I could see that she was just persevering. She wanted to see every place that held mories with my dad..."

Seeing Wen Wan's reddened eyes, Chen Fan could only offer consolation: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked about this. My condolences."

Wen Wan didn't say anything further, lowering her head to continue eating.

This ti Chen Fan didn't ask any more questions, but silently watched as Wen Wan finished the entire bowl of noodles, not leaving even a drop of the soup broth.

"It seems like you were very hungry."

Chen Fan asked curiously, "The Teacher Wen I knew before wasn't like this."

Wen Wan took a paper napkin and lightly dabbed the corners of her mouth, not saying anything.

Chen Fan glanced at the violin case Wen Wan had placed aside.

"You work at that bar?"

Wen Wan nodded: "Yes."

Chen Fan looked puzzled, "Why would you work there? With your abilities..."

Wen Wan let out a bitter laugh, cutting off Chen Fan's words.

"I lost my job at the school. After making arrangents for my mom, I tried applying to other schools, and two of them had already decided to accept . But then they saw my information and found out about that gossip news from before, so naturally they didn't dare hire ..."

Chen Fan didn't understand, still wondering what gossip news she was referring to.

Seeing Wen Wan's expression, Chen Fan's heart moved, and he finally realized she must be talking about the previous incident where Liu Weijie, a Yunhai University sports teacher, had slandered and spread rumors about her online.

Although the rumor-mongering was later clarified, people's words can be intimidating, especially for a teaching position. No school would dare to take on such a risk.

Wen Wan's voice continued narrating.

"It seems being a teacher is out of the question for in this lifeti. I don't have any other skills, so to make a living, I can only go around playing the violin."

"This is already the fourth bar I've worked at. The longest was one month, the shortest was three days."

Chen Fan asked in puzzlent: "Why is that?"

He believed in Wen Wan's abilities. Although he had never heard her play the violin, Chen Fan believed that if she intended to make a living with it, she must be highly skilled.

But unexpectedly, Wen Wan directly gave him a surprising answer.

"Bars need lively, rousing songs and dances to stir up the mood. They don't welco Chopin, Mozart, or Tchaikovsky..."

Chen Fan suddenly understood and found it sowhat ridiculous.

"Teacher Wen, the pieces you play are too elegant. You should go to a concert hall. How could those kinds of bars possibly like that?"

Seeing that Wen Wan didn't respond, Chen Fan smiled and asked, "Teacher Wen, where are you living now?"

"I rented a place."

Chen Fan looked at the Wen Wan before him. It had been a while since they last t, and this woman had obviously lost a lot of weight, her face full of fatigue.

It seed these days hadn't been going very smoothly for her.

Thinking of this, Chen Fan felt furious towards that Liu Weijie.

However, that guy had already been imprisoned, so even if Chen Fan wanted revenge, he couldn't get it.

But then Chen Fan thought about the rumors that had spread back then, and how he himself was also involved in one of them.

From this perspective, he had in a way implicated her as well.

Thinking back to the first ti he t Wen Wan, she was like a fairy that countless students went crazy over.

Yet now, she was actually worrying about filling her stomach to make a living.

Chen Fan found it sowhat distasteful.

Thinking of these things, Chen Fan took out his phone from his pocket.

"Tell your phone number, let's save it again."

Wen Wan was taken aback, her expression suddenly becoming sowhat awkward.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Fan looked puzzled, then smiled bitterly: "Don't tell you really don't want as a friend anymore?"

"No, it's not that."

Wen Wan lowered her head sowhat embarrassedly, "I..."

"Actually, I didn't change my phone number, it's just...been disconnected."

Chen Fan's expression froze as he looked at the flushed, embarrassed, and self-conscious Wen Wan before him.

For the first ti, he understood just how difficult her life had been during this period.
