Chapter 7
- Yang Yu had not thought that this female teacher was the naked woman bathing in the pool yesterday. This village sure was small.
- “Yang Lin, you know each other?” The old principal asked in confusion.
- So this person was also a teacher at this school and she was called Yang Lin. When Yang Lin saw Yang Yu, she immediately thought of the bathing incident yesterday. How could she speak about such an incident? That the man before her had seen her naked body?
- “No, I don’t know him!” Yang Lin pursed her lips, and did not even look at Yang Yu again. Yang Yu found this funny. What are you being bashful about? I’ve already seen your flower anyway. Despite that, Yang Yu continued to put on a gentlemanly act.
- Yang Yu’s rules for picking up ladies was to pretend to be upright and honorable. He could not just immediately go after a girl like he was a dog. Only with an honorable image would the ladies in the village throw themselves at him.
- When the time came, assembling a sizable harem would not be a pipe dream.
- As of now, Yang Yu’s first target was still his own elder cousin. He realized that this cousin of his was the most interesting woman. She was excitable and straightforward. As he thought about this, how he wished that he could slip into her room tonight and have his way with her.
- Of course, these three sisters, these teachers, and even the female students were all in his bag. Yang Yu was pleased that he had come to the right place.
- “Yu, since you’re a highly qualified person, I’ve decided that you will teach the middle school third years their mathematics and natural studies classes. And, PE will of course be under you as well. This third year class is a little special. We’ve already been dead last in the county’s entrance exams for the past 7 years, so this time, we’re hoping that you will help us make a beautiful turnaround. Tomorrow, the county’s committee will even swing by here to inspect us. We’ve got a tough mission to achieve.” The principal patted Yang Yu’s shoulder, like he had just shoved a weight and all his hopes onto Yang Yu.
- Right at that moment, the bell that signaled the beginning of their work day rang.
- The female teachers in the office filed out to begin class. Yang Yu was assigned to a shabby desk in the office, to the right of the ice queen, Leng Xiaoxue. Across him was the mature woman, Li Ruoshui. Behind him was a wall. As for whose seat was to his right, Yang Yu still did not know, but he was practically boxed in the centre by a group of beautiful teachers.
- The principal handed him a timetable, and he himself exited the office too.
- Yang Yu took a look at his timetable. It was pretty crammed; he basically had two class periods back to back. Second and third periods were the periods that he would start with. Many of the teachers had 4 classes in one go, even in the afternoon. There was a lot of work to be done here.
- Yang Yu spent a little time tidying his desk, cleaning the office, and familiarizing himself with the school grounds. Just like that, the first period soon flew by.
- During the short break in between periods, the students of the school were lively and chattering as they played together with nary a worry or care. Soon, the bell for the second period rang. Yang Yu exhaled. This was the first ever class that he would be teaching so he had to leave a good impression on the kids.
- Just as he stepped out of the door and made a turn by the top of the stairs, he collided straight into a female student. That student took a look at Yang Yu and, since she naturally would not think that he was a teacher here, she opened her mouth to fire at him, “Don’t you have eyes on you?”
- Yang Yu frowned. He noticed that this girl was tall, her features youthful and refined, making her look proud and aloof. She had been walking down the stairs with her school bag on her back. “You aren’t skipping class, are you?”
- “You think just because you’re older than me, you can order me around?” The student said coldly when she realized that she had been seen through in just those words.
- Do the girls in this village have such individuality? Right then, the principal walked by and saw this scene.
- “Mingji, you’re trying to skip class again? Go back to your classroom,” he said.
- When the student — Mingji -—saw that it was the principal, she froze for a moment before letting a cold grunt of displeasure and shooting a hard glare at Yang Yu. It was like she was blaming him for ruining her plans of escape. With that, she walked straight back to class.
- “This girl is a bit more rebellious. You have to keep a closer eye on her!” After the principal had told Yang Yu this, he then returned to the office.
- Yang Yu finally found the middle school third year class. He could already hear a heap noise, just like a market, far down the corridor, and it sounded like girls’ voices. Yang Yu maintained his smile, as he wanted to leave a good impression on these girls. Just as he stepped into the classroom, something suddenly flew straight towards him.
- With a ‘smack’, it hit Yang Yu right in the face. Instantly, his face was completely covered in dust. It was a blackboard duster, one that had just been used to clean a blackboard and still had chalk dust on it. When Yang Yu took the blackboard duster to the face, a rectangular black mark was left where it had landed on his face. He looked like a man who had just painted black rouge on his face.
- The entire class immediately burst out into raucous laughter.
- However, they were soon unable to continue laughing, because the one standing before them was not the old fart of a principal, but a super handsome man — a vibrant, healthy, masculine, handsome young man!
- In an instant, the class morphed from raucous laughter to utter silence. They did not quieten because of fear, but because they were all attracted to Yang Yu’s masculine charm. The only other male teacher at this school was that old fart of a principal.
- Behind the girls sat a few country bumpkin boys. They wore shoes typically worn by the People’s Liberation army, their pants were rolled up, their shirts opened to reveal their chests. Even if they were reborn, they would still not be taller than the girls here. Their skin was tanned from the sun, so dark that it looked like they came from Kenya, looking like African refugees. In these girls’ eyes, these few boys could not be called men at all, because they were simply too ugly.
- The man standing before them made the gulf between him and the old fart as well as the country bumpkin boys in their class vastly apparent. Yang Yu’s existing good looks were amplified several times over by this. Just imagine how excited a group of young girls in the throes of adolescence — in a period of life when they had girlish fantasies and were constantly thinking about men — got when they saw Yang Yu.
- Yang Yu entered the scene like a prince charming, instantly blinding all the girls.
- He picked up the duster and walked over to the podium, pulling out a paper napkin to wipe his face clean. He did not show any hint of anger at all. On the contrary, he gave a slight smile. “Is this how you welcome your new homeroom teacher?”
- That small smile of Yang Yu’s enchanted all of the girls. Several of them were nearly drooling already.
- “I was the one who threw the duster. If you’re going to punish anyone, then punish me.”
- Yang Yu looked in the direction of the voice, and noticed a girl from the last row stand up. When he saw that it was Ji Ming, who had tried to play hooky earlier, he spoke, “Alright then! Your punishment will be… to eat this apple!”
- As he said that, he dug out an apple out of nowhere and flung it to her. It was the apple that Zheng Xinyi had shoved on him.
- Yang Yu’s ‘punishment’ was not what anyone expected, let alone Ji Ming’s. No teacher had punished a student like he did before.
- “Wow! How cool!” A moment later, the students were already chattering and discussing this.
- “Sir, do you have a girlfriend?” Yang Yu did not know who had shouted out this question. That question instantly evoked a round of laughter from the class.
- “Still none yet. If you want to date though…” Yang Yu purposely paused right there. Despite that, all the girls knew what their teacher was about to say, because their principal had been beating it into their heads daily: no dating, no chasing after boys, no hand-holding, no kissing, and a bunch of other irrelevant things.
- Yang Yu smiled again. In truth, when Yang Yu smiled, two dimples would appear but they were just not prominent. However, when he smiled, it made women even more entranced with him. Then again, he suddenly spoke. “You all are at the right age to date. If you don’t date now, just when are you going to date? I very much welcome you all to find a boyfriend from this class, this school, or this village. Even if it’s an underclassman, I allow it.”
- Those words shook everyone on the spot.
- “Did those words just come from the mouth of a teacher?”
- “Is this real?”
- “We didn’t mishear anything, right?”
- “Is our teacher actually encouraging us to date?”
- “Of course, if there is a girl in this class who catches my eye, I will definitely pursue her!” Those words were like a bomb as it instantly whipped the girls into a frenzy. In actuality, all Yang Yu did was put himself in their shoes. When he was in the third year of his middle school, he had already been thinking of girls, but he did not date. Now, he regretted it. Why? Why could they not date during their youthful days of adolescence? Just why?
- Why would teachers disallow you from dating in middle school? Not even in high school, nor in university. But the moment you graduated from university, your parents would force you to meet a prospective partner! Why, just why? Why did you have to learn how to get married first without even learning how to date? Yang Yu did not know at all! It was exactly because of this that he would not restrain his students. It was their rights and freedom to date.
- That went for teacher-student relationships as well. Yang Yu’s rules were very simple. ‘I like you, you like me’, and that was enough. Whether you were a cousin, a teacher or a student, a poor sap or a rich person, as long as both of them liked each other, that was reason enough!
- “Alright, everyone quiet down. I’ll introduce myself first. I am Yang Yu, your homeroom teacher. I’ll be teaching you mathematics, natural studies and PE! I hope that we can get along with each other!”
- And thus, the students began to introduce themselves in excitement. Yang Yu could not remember that many faces, but there were still some who left a lasting impression on him. Besides that especially rebellious student Mingji, his cousin Li Yunxi also happened to be in this class.
- “My name is Li Yunxi! I like hiking!” When Yunxi introduced herself, Yang Yu kept his eyes on her. He realized that this girl’s beauty was not a typical one, she was practically drop-dead gorgeous. He was lost in her beauty. Embarrassed to be sized up by her cousin like this, her face turned red.
- “Li Yunxi, why’s your face so red? Is it because you fell for me?” It made everyone laugh out loud.
- In addition to those two, there was a girl called Zi Shu. When Zi Shu stood up, she looked straight at Yang Yu. Her self-introduction was quite the shocker as well. “I’m Zi Shu. I like you, Mr. Yang. Can I date you?”
- Yang Yu had not anticipated that a year three girl from a middle high school would be this bold and daring. He could only smile awkwardly in reply to her.
- There were quite a few other gorgeous girls that left an impression on Yang Yu. One of them was the village chief’s daughter, Zhang Meiruo. She was tall and slender. Her body could give Yang Yu’s cousin Yuanxi a run for her money, but unlike Yuanxi, she was way younger at only 16 years old.
- There was another girl called Han Qingfang. She had a great air about her, and she was 175 cm tall, making her the tallest person in class. It would be a pity for her not to be a model. With a single look at her grace and elegance, one could instantly tell that she was from a wealthy family. She had an extraordinary aura around her, an aura of refinement. She was certainly different from everyone else.
- And then there was the girl called Bai Xue, who looked rather womanly. She was like a vixen, with those large eyes which could send shocks through you. Yang Yu’s body was nearly numb from those eyes of hers.
- His first period passed by in a wave of introductions and idle conversation. During his next period, Yang Yu tried to teach, but these girls were not having any of it. If they were not chatting, they were teasing Yang Yu. He was not sure whether he should laugh or cry.
- His schedule for the afternoon was not as busy as the morning. Many of the students needed to climb down the mountain to go home, which was why classes were normally dismissed earlier. So, Yang Yu brought his youngest cousin home.
- When he arrived at the house, he noticed that it was empty. Yang Yu’s aunt and the others had probably gone up the mountain. Seeing that not even the dishes were washed yet, Yunxi proceeded to begin to do house chores like a good girl. Yang Yu, on the other hand, prepared to go upstairs to prepare the next day’s teaching material.
- However, just as he reached the next floor and walked past his elder cousin’s door, he suddenly heard a strange noise coming from inside. Yang Yu hastily pricked up his ears to listen. It turned out that it was actually his elder cousin’s voice.
- It was daytime so just what was she doing?
