When I thought of this, I revealed a troubled expression and sighed. “This is a good plan, but I can’t help you.”
Zheng Yuxun’s expression immediately changed. “Zhang Lu! What do you mean!? Didn’t we have an agreement just now? Why did you suddenly go back on your word!?”
I said with a bitter expression, “It’s not that I don’t want to help. I even have trouble protecting myself, so how can I help you?”
Zheng Yuxun was stunned. “What do you mean by having trouble protecting yourself? What kind of trouble have you gotten yourself into?”
I angrily said, “What do you mean I’ve gotten myself into trouble? It’s someone else who’s causing trouble for me!”
Zheng Yuxun curled her lips. “If you say so! What kind of trouble is it exactly?”
I was delighted. Just as I was about to take the opportunity to explain, a cold male voice came from behind me. “I say, look who it is. Isn’t that Teacher Yang’s cousin, Zheng Yuxun?”
In that instant, I felt a chill run down my spine and was unable to move. I did not even dare to turn my head.
It was Chen Hanwei’s voice!
When did this fellow arrive behind me?!
Zheng Yuxun and I were currently behind a flowerbed. There were flowers and plants blocking our view, so it was not easy for anyone to see us. However, it was also difficult for us to notice if someone was approaching us.
It was likely that Chen Hanwei had walked over while we were talking.
‘How long has he been here? What did he hear?’ I thought as my heart raced. ‘The only fortunate thing is that I haven’t said anything about him. Otherwise, if he hears me, then I’ll be completely finished!’
Zheng Yuxun looked behind me and said in surprise, “Teacher Chen! Why are you eavesdropping on our conversation here?!”
Her cousin was a counselor, so her rank was higher than Chen Hanwei’s. Therefore, she naturally would not be as restrained as an ordinary student.
“I was passing by and suddenly heard a very pleasant voice, so I couldn’t help but come to see who it was,” Chen Hanwei said with a smile. “With one glance, I recognized you due to your great beauty, Little Xun. Why, is this your boyfriend?”
He was deliberately pretending not to know me!
I knew very well that this fellow was here because of my conflict with him, so he came to keep an eye on me. I could only keep my mouth shut.
Zheng Yuxun pouted. “He’s not worthy of me. Hmph! No way I will take him as my boyfriend!”
Chen Hanwei smiled. “You gave me a fright. So he’s not your boyfriend. Then, can I pursue you?”
Zheng Yuxun blushed and said angrily, “You’re a teacher, and I’m a student. We can’t do this!”
Although she was saying no, her reaction seemed to be saying yes.
I thought to myself, ‘Could it be that she actually liked this shameless person, Chen Hanwei?’
However, thinking about it, it made sense. At the end of the day, Chen Hanwei was quite good-looking and had a good physique. Within the three ‘main categories’ of tall, rich, and handsome, he was at least tall and handsome. Regardless of his character or background, it was normal for him to be popular with girls.
Chen Hanwei continued to speak from behind me. “What era is it? Why do you still care about this? Little Xun, you’re a little old-fashioned.”
Zheng Yuxun blurted out, “I’m not old-fashioned!”
Chen Hanwei deliberately provoked her. “Then do you dare to go on a date with me? If you’re afraid, then forget it.”
Zheng Yuxun blushed and shouted, “What’s there to be afraid of! Let’s go to the movies tomorrow night. Whoever that doesn’t show up is a bastard turtle!”
In an instant, Chen Hanwei quieted down.
I was stunned for a moment. Then, I was overjoyed.
If she wanted to go to the movies with Chen Hanwei tomorrow night, then that would mean that his plans with Teacher Xia’s matter would fail, right?
This was also the reason why Chen Hanwei did not reply for a moment!
Holy shit!
Zheng Yuxun was really my lucky star! I had my plans with her, but before I could say anything, she ‘took the initiative’ to help me!
Chen Hanwei had himself to blame. If he did not tease Zheng Yuxun, she would not have challenged him to a date.
After a long while, Chen Hanwei reluctantly said, “Why tomorrow? Can’t it bet tonight?”
Zheng Yuxun glanced at me. “I have something to do tonight. It’s very important. I can only do it tomorrow. Teacher Chen, are you saying you don’t dare? If you don’t dare, you can just say so. Hehe…”
Chen Hanwei was also a person with a strong sense of self-respect. He paused for a moment and said firmly, “Tomorrow night it is. What movie do you want to watch? Contact me later. I’ll buy the tickets!”
A few minutes later, Chen Hanwei left.
For the entire time, I did not dare to turn my head to look at him.
After he left, I received a message from him. There was only one sentence on it.
[Watch your mouth.]
How could I not understand what he meant? He was warning me not to tell anyone about this, or else I would bear the consequences.
Zheng Yuxun, who was opposite me, said angrily, “You haven’t answered my question. Why are you looking at your phone!”
I remembered what I wanted to do. I put my phone away and said, “I can help you, but how badly do you want Fang Qian to beat me up?”
Zheng Yuxun’s eyes lit up. “It’s best if he can break a few bones or something. It’ll be even better you’re bleeding from your mouth!”
My expression changed. “What?! Are you messing with him or me?!”
Zheng Yuxun’s eyes sparkled, she did not dare to look at me. She stared at the flower beside her. “Of course, he has to hit you hard enough before I can guarantee that he will be expelled. If he hits you lightly, the school will at most give him a warning or something. That would be a waste of effort.”
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that this girl wanted to kill two birds with one stone. I decisively said, “No! If you’re looking for someone to sacrifice his bones or something, then find someone else.”
What a joke!
I was not an idiot.. Breaking bones? Why did she not do it herself? How could she be so casual about something like this?
