Chapter 24: Teacher, I like you!
Han Ru's eyebrows slightly furrowed, and she whispered softly: "You're a grown man, can't you be more magnanimous? I was just testing you that time, and didn't take it too far. Are you still holding a grudge against me?"
"How dare I? I'm afraid that one day, without warning, I'll be frozen into an ice block." Ling Fei said with a smile, taking a few steps to the side and stroking a tree trunk.
Han Ru's eyes flashed with a hint of displeasure, but it quickly dimmed down. She spoke softly: "I... I know you have a good relationship with Master Qin. Can you help me? Help me beg Master Qin..."
"It's impossible, just give up on that idea," she hadn't even finished speaking when Ling Fei interrupted her in a light tone. His attitude had changed a lot too.
"Why? Don't you want to hear what I'm asking you to do?" Han Ruoye's expression turned cold.
Ling Fei pulled out a cigarette, pinched it between his fingertips, but didn't light it; "I don't care what you want to do, I'm afraid I won't agree to this matter. If there's nothing else, then I'll leave first."
After finishing speaking, Ling Fei didn't wait for Han Ruyue to say anything else and turned around to leave. At the same time, he was cold in his heart: "Stupid woman, don't you know that using a major prophecy technique for a minor injury will cost many years of your life?"
Although I wanted to in my heart, I didn't say it out loud and instead quickened my pace.
Han Ru Yue gazed at Ling Fei's back, biting her lip, and hastily called out: "Teacher Ling! I'm begging you! Wait!"
Ling Fei's footsteps paused for a moment, but it was only a slight pause, and then he continued down the mountain path.
Frost formed in Han Yue's hand, and a stream of cold air shot out, striking the ground in front of Ling Fei, freezing a patch of ground. Ling Fei frowned and turned back: "What do you want to do?"
Han Ruoyue's eyes were misty, but she suppressed her emotions and didn't reveal anything unusual; "Ling Laoshi, you must help me, if you help me this time, I, Han Ruoyue, am willing to be a cow or a horse, a slave or a servant."
"I'm not interested in having a servant like you. I'll say it again, I won't help you, got it? I don't want to emphasize it." Ling Fei frowned and said.
Han Ru Yue was stunned, she seemed to not understand why Ling Fei refused so thoroughly.
Ling Fei looked at her and also felt a bit of sympathy, finally saying: "I won't help you, I'm also in a difficult situation, you'd better ask someone else."
After finishing speaking, Ling Fei didn't want to say more, turned around and quickly left the back mountain. Only Han Ruyue was left standing in a daze, at a loss for what to do.
……
After getting off the mountain, Ling Fei calculated the time and it was only one o'clock in the afternoon. There was still enough time, and since he had to stay on campus today, Ling Fei had many things to do.
"Ah... it's been a long time since I've been back, I don't even know what lesson we're on now. Is there any teacher as irresponsible as me?" He chuckled to himself and strolled around the playground.
……
In the third class classroom, a middle-aged teacher stood on the podium, tapping the blackboard and talking non-stop, while the students below were clearly disinterested, each listlessly fiddling with their own things, and some even smashed cassettes, pulled out the black tape inside, tied paper notes to it, threw them out of the window, and then pulled them back in a moment later, apparently exchanging notes with the class downstairs.
The teacher on the podium seems to be used to this situation, ignoring it and continuing to speak with enthusiasm, while the students are drowsy.
Wang Chen was lying on the table at this moment. His super teacher had already been put away, and he had changed to read "Snooker Quick Start".
Chu Feng looked at the middle-aged teacher on the podium, with unknown thoughts in his mind.
Zhang Qiana is even simpler, still drawing a Q version of Ling Fei on her notebook. In short, not many people are really studying, and Lin Yueqiao is always writing something on her book at any time.
Lin Wan Shi was holding a romance novel and reading it with great relish.
……
Before long, a class was over and the middle-aged man wiped the sweat from his forehead; "Class dismissed, see you later, classmates."
No one paid attention to him, and he didn't care either, shaking his head and turning around to leave the classroom.
As soon as he pushed open the door, he bumped into Ling Fei who was walking to the edge of the door. He looked at Ling Fei for a few moments and felt familiar; "Who are you?"
Ling Fei, who was walking carelessly, was startled and quickly looked up to see that the other person had just walked out of his own classroom. He immediately understood and politely said, "I'm the new head teacher of this class, nice to meet you."
He immediately stretched out his hand, and the teacher also shook hands with him; "Hey, young man, this job is not easy to do, especially for your class, work hard." After finishing speaking, he looked at Ling Fei a few times, shaking his head regretfully.
Turned around and left.
Ling Fei looked at his back, curled up his mouth, walked into the classroom, swept a glance at the students who were all lacking in enthusiasm and doing their own things, Ling Fei went up to the podium, patted the lectern.
Some students who had a good impression of Ling Fei looked up at him, while Lin Xuan Shi's group naturally didn't give him the time of day.
Ling Fei didn't have the mood to care about it either, and said lightly: "There's less than a week left before the mock exam, are you guys ready?"
"Ready......" The voice was lazy and sounded like it hadn't had a good sleep.
Ling Fei furrowed his brow and raised his voice a few decibels; "Louder! Are you ready?!"
"Ready!" Chu Feng and several others shouted at the top of their lungs.
Ling Fei let out a silent sigh and rubbed his temples, which were throbbing with pain; "Chu Feng, I'm going to your house for a home visit today, do you have any opinions?" Chu Feng was taken aback, collided with Ling Fei's somewhat unnatural gaze, and immediately said; "No opinion! No opinion..."
Lin Wan Shi saw Chu Feng's appearance, and snorted in disdain. She looked at Ling Fei on the podium and thought to herself: "Wait for it, since you dare to come back, be prepared to get messed with. Now is when we're really going to start playing."
Ling Fei nodded; "Right, I heard that the school is having a basketball game recently. Are you guys interested in participating?"
Jiang Xingxiao and some boys' eyes lit up; "Yes, teacher, help us sign up!"
Ling Fei glanced at them; "Alright, those who are interested can find me after the next class. That's all for now, class dismissed."
……
After the students dispersed, Ling Fei picked up his language textbook and began to review some of the lessons that had been left behind, preparing for the next class. Suddenly, Ling Fei's ears perked up, he stopped writing on the blackboard, turned around, and a delicate face with a hint of tension appeared before him.
Ling Fei racked his brains for a moment, but really couldn't remember who this student was. It wasn't strange, after all, he had only been a teacher for less than a week before taking a month's leave, and it was already quite impressive that he could recognize a few students. Suddenly, he remembered the girl who stood up with Zhang Qiao Na to defend him against Bai Yu that morning, and his mind cleared up a bit. He then asked in surprise: "Classmate, is there something?"
That girl was precisely Zhou Dan. Zhou Dan had her hands clasped behind her back, staring at Ling Fei's face, seemingly wanting to say something but hesitating.
Ling Fei smiled patiently and said, "Classmate, is there something wrong or are you feeling unwell?" Zhou Wei shook her head, her face slowly turning red, her pale cheeks becoming a light pink color, looking very cute.
Ling Fei's heart skipped a beat, and he asked again, "Classmate, what's wrong?" Zhou Dan suddenly lifted her head, as if she had made up her mind, stretched out both hands, and handed Ling Fei a letter wrapped in a pink envelope. At this moment, even with the distance of a lectern between them, Ling Fei could hear her violent heartbeat, and swallowed his saliva; " Cla..."
"Teacher, I like you..." Zhou Dun said weakly, finishing the sentence, and then quickly put the letter on the table and ran out of the classroom, leaving Ling Fei standing stupidly on the podium.
In an instant, Ling Fei came back to his senses and immediately looked around, making sure no one was there before picking up the letter. He felt the residual warmth on the paper, and even someone as thick-skinned as Ling Fei couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
He comforted himself with a cough and muttered, "It's nothing, maybe it's just a thank-you note..." The words were clearly spoken with some lack of confidence. He ran down from the podium, stuck his head out into the empty corridor, looked around with a sneaky gaze, then returned to the classroom, closed the door tightly, quickly tore open the envelope, and pulled out the letter inside to read it.
After finishing reading, Ling Fei's hand trembled and the snow-white letter paper slowly fell to the ground. His mouth felt bitter as if he didn't dare believe it was true, but his heart became somewhat excited; "Could this be the legendary teacher-student romance?"
He swallowed his saliva, pinched his face, and the clear pain on his face told him it was real. He picked up the snow-white letter on the ground with a nervous heart, and Zhou Duan's delicate figure involuntarily emerged in his mind...
