Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the teacher’s office, a few of them happily chatted about their day, not until they saw the physics teacher from Class Six walk in angrily. They exchanged worried glances with each other. What was going on?

“Hey, aren’t you supposed to be in class? What’s going on?” The one who asked was a chemistry teacher. She looked at him in shock and asked.

Du Zhuo took a big gulp of water and began to complain, “It’s all because of those students from Class Six. It’s one thing for them not to learn all day long, but today, they even contradicted me in front of the other students.”

Another young man’s expression was gentle as he said disapprovingly, “Teacher Du, no matter what, you’re still a teacher. How can you say that students are ignorant and incompetent?”

The person beside the man tugged at him, signaling for him to shut up.

Du Zhuo’s expression turned even darker, he did not expect someone would speak up to defend Class Six.

With a glance, he laughed disdainfully, “I was wondering who said that. So it’s the new Teacher Bai. Since you’re acting this noble, why don’t you go ahead and teach physics for Class Six?”

The office was silent all of a sudden. All eyes were focused on both of the men.

Bai Luoyan suddenly clenched his fists and replied without hesitation, “Sure. What can a teacher like you teach students anyways?”

Everyone present was smart. They all knew what he was trying to imply.

“Then I’d like to see if you can teach them well. I’ll talk to the principal about this matter immediately,” Du Zhuo laughed instead of getting angry.

Seeing him leave, a teacher who built a good relationship with Bai Luoyan could not help but speak up.

“Why did you have to act that impulsively? Do you know how hard it is to teach Class Six? First of all, let’s not even mentioned about their grades. Just Xiao Yao and Wen Yu’s existence would be enough to give you a headache.”

After saying this, the teacher thought for a moment before adding, “Lu Jinqi, who just transferred to their class, is the same. She fought with her classmates during the first day of school.”

Bai Luoyan’s expression did not change at all after hearing this. He had long heard what this teacher said. However, as a teacher, no matter what kind of students they were, he would never give up on them.

“I believe I can do it.”

Seeing this, the other teacher no longer tried to dissuade him. He shook his head. “You’re just going to end up turning a wall and hitting it.”

He was still too young and hopeful.

It was true that newborn calves were not afraid of tigers, but the students in Class Six were not tigers, they were apparently much worse than that.

…

“Qiqi, why do I feel that you don’t look too well?” Xie Shuyao stared at her and finally realized that something was wrong.

“I’m fine.” Lu Jinqi rubbed her temples, tugging at the collar of her school uniform and lying on the table.

At that moment, a hand suddenly pressed against her forehead. Feeling the burning sensation under her palm, Xie Shuyao cried out in alarm.

“You have a fever!”

No wonder her face was flushed and she felt that it was hot. She did not know that she was sporting a fever.

“Qiqi, let’s go to the nurse’s office,” said Xiao Yao. He was about to pull Lu Jinqi up, but she shoved his hand off her.

Lu Jinqi closed her eyes as sweat beads pooled on her forehead. She said faintly, “I’m not going.”

Seeing this, Wen Yu frowned and said softly to Xiao Yao and the rest, “If she isn’t willing to go… Then what do we do now?”

How would they know what to do? It was not like they were not familiar with her temper. If she said she was not going, then there was nothing they could do.

Xie Shuyao’s face was filled with worry. Suddenly, a figure appeared in her mind, and her eyes lit up. ‘That’s right, I can look for Master Jing. I’m such a smart person.’

“I have a way.” Xie Shuyao dialed without hesitation s thought of an idea.

Xiao Yao and Wen Yu looked at each other and asked. “What’s she going to do?”

Soon, they heard Xie Shuyao talking about Lu Jinqi’s fever on the other end of the phone. Not long after, she hung up.

Xiao Yao curled his lips. “Xie Shuyao, who were you talking to just now?”

Xie Shuyao gave a mysterious smile. “Someone who can take Qiqi to the hospital.”

…

On the other side of the phone, Xie Lingchuan hung up the call and glanced at the person who was resting. He hesitated and did not know how to approach the matter at hand.

“Lingchuan, who called? Why do you look so constipated after answering it?” Qi Ye asked curiously when he saw him like this.

“You’re the one who’s constipated.” Xie Lingchuan gave him a fierce kick.

Pain instantly came from his calf. Qi Ye hugged his leg and started wailing. “F*ck, Xie Lingchuan, you really kicked me for that?”

When Xie Lingchuan heard this, he narrowed his eyes and smiled.

“That’s enough, the two of you.” Si Jingyun swept a cold glance at the both of them, his tone was cold.

Xie Lingchuan looked at him and thought of Xie Shuyao’s plea. He steeled his heart and said, “Master Jing, Shuyao just called and said that Lu Jinqi is sick and refuses to go to the nurse’s office.”

Si Jingyun looked up. “She’s sick?”

“Yeah, Shuyao said that they couldn’t do anything about it, and then she thought of you.”

After saying this, the corners of Xie Lingchuan’s mouth twitched. Master Jing seemed to be inwardly listening and not outwardly expressing his thoughts.

He knew that Master Jing was a little interested in that girl, but perhaps it may not be to this extent.

However, after he heard what Lingchuan said, Si Jingyun strode out with long and slender legs.

Qi Ye and Xie Lingchuan’s thoughts were the same. Then, one of them saw Si Jingyun’s actions and exclaimed.

“Master Jing, you’re not actually going to go, are you?”

A black figure replied.

…

“Qiqi, wake up.” When she received the call and found out that Si Jingyun had already arrived at the school gate, Xie Shuyao poked the sleeping girl awake.

When she was woken up, Lu Jinqi’s eyes turned red and she looked extremely tired.

“What’s wrong?”

Hervoice was hoarse, so Xie Shuyao smiled shyly. “Can you follow me out for a while?”

At that moment, she dared not to speak the truth.

Lu Jinqi stared at her for two seconds before saying decisively, “I’m not going.”

Xie Shuyao had expected her to be rejected, so her face fell. She looked at Lu Jinqi with tears welling up, not saying a word.

Under such a strong gaze, no matter how calm Lu Jinqi was, she could not take it. She scratched her hair in frustration. “Fine, let’s go.”

Having achieved her goal, Xie Shuyao gave herself a thumbs up in her heart and happily brought Lu QJinqi out.

Xiao Yao and Xie Shuyao — who had witnessed her change of expression — were speechless.

They could not believe that acting coquettishly worked for Lu Jinqi.

Lu Jinqi followed Xie Shuyao to the school gate and saw the familiar Bugatti parked idly by.

“Give me an explanation for this.” Lu Jinqi’s whole body was tired, and her dark eyes were filled with coldness.

Xie Shuyao said, “Well, I just accidentally called my brother, and then…”

The rest of her words were stuck in her mouth when she felt Lu Jinqi’s intense gaze getting stronger and stronger.

Lu Jinqi knew that she had good intentions, so in the end, she said coldly, “I don’t want this to happen a second time.”

“Okay, I promise.” She might consider breaking this if desperate time calls for desperate measures. However, she dared not to tell Lu Jinqi this, so Xie Shuyao only nodded fiercely after promising.

The man in the car saw that the atmosphere was tense, so he pushed open the door and got out of the car. Until now, Si Jingyun still did not understand why he had come.

Perhaps it was because the little child had always looked at him endearingly, so he could not let her go.

“Jinny,” the man’s voice was low and alluring, attracting the others’ attention.

Hearing the man’s call, Lu Jinqi stopped in her tracks.

No one had ever called her Jinny for a long time, and no one knew that this was her favorite nickname to be called as.

“Jinny, why aren’t you talking to me?” Si Jingyun said nonchalantly.

Lu Jinqi narrowed her beautiful eyes. “Why did you suddenly come to school?”

The cold and elegant man raised his brows, his lips curled into a smile. Jinqi’s heart skipped a beat with that one gesture.

“I heard that you refused to go to the nurse’s office, I had to come here and arrest you for not following orders.”

“…”

How did he say that so confidently in public?!
