Chapter 206: Chapter 205 Fang Ming Has an Appointment (Part 2) "Sigh, your grandfather would be very happy if he knew you had this determination," Fang Ming sighed, and then took out a newspaper and placed it on the table. However, the side facing up was not the scandalous actress but the news about the Gambling Stone Festival in Zhonghai City. She looked at Lin Tian and smiled, "I didn’t ask much in the classroom just now. Now, tell me honestly, the Lin Tian in the newspaper is you, isn’t it?" With such sharp eyes, Teacher Fang Ming had seen through him at a glance. True to her role as a good teacher, she was very observant; Lin Tian knew he couldn’t hide it from her, so he nodded and said, "Yes, that Lin Tian is me." "Someone called to ask for leave on your behalf the day before yesterday. It makes sense now — you were delayed because you were attending the Gambling Stone Festival in Zhonghai City," Fang Ming said. The leave must have been arranged by Miss. Lin Tian thought that she was the only one who could have asked for leave on his behalf. "Aunt Fang, I won’t neglect my studies. It’s just that there are some things I have to do." Lin Tian knew Fang Ming was worried about him. She had been helping him since his first year in high school, showing more concern than usual between teacher and student, and even more, there was a familial care. Lin Tian didn’t know why Fang Ming had developed such feelings toward him alone. Perhaps she had her own untold stories. He had never heard Fang Ming mention any family members, and although he had never been to her home, she seemed to live alone. "I know you won’t fall behind in your studies; otherwise, I would have punished you long ago." Fang Ming smiled, and then said, "It’s about time to consider the issue of your college preferences. Come to my house for dinner tonight, I’ll talk to you about it." Dinner? Lin Tian was taken aback. As far as he remembered, this was the first time Fang Ming had invited him to her home. She had barely mentioned her home before, let alone issued an invitation. Could there be something special? "What are you daydreaming about? Do you perhaps dislike the food I cook, or are you a wealthy man now, craving delicacies of land and sea? Humph, if you dare not come tonight, I’ll punish you to clean the toilets for a week!" Fang Ming pretended to be huffy. Wow, who knew the head teacher could be so childish? Lin Tian was both amused and exasperated. Not to mention their good relationship, just to avoid cleaning toilets he would have to accept the invitation. "Aunt Fang, I’ve been longing to try your cooking; surely it’s the best in the world, even hotel chefs would pale in comparison..." Lin Tian’s stream of compliments flowed effortlessly without need for thought. However, Fang Ming deliberately put on a stern face to interrupt him, "Enough, enough, kid. You’re giving me goosebumps with all that. ’The best in the world’ — save those lines for your girlfriends." Although she said so, her eyes still revealed a pleased expression. But her mention of "those girlfriends" left Lin Tian rather embarrassed. What does she mean by ’those’? I don’t have a single one right now; I’m a genuine single aristocrat. He felt very vexed and wondered if he, a proud zombie, had somehow lost his charm — why hadn’t any woman confessed to him? "Alright, stop acting pitiful here. Xiao Manxuan and Zhang Lingyu are good girls; you better not mess around. Whatever you do, do it with sincerity, especially when it comes to girls..." Fang Ming fully utilized her strengths as a language teacher and class advisor, speaking eloquently and at length for five full minutes before stopping. Lin Tian listened, dumbfounded. Now that’s what you call eloquence. If only I had half of her eloquence, I probably wouldn’t be single now, he thought deeply, recognizing his shortcomings. "Class is about to start, you should head back to the classroom," Fang Ming concluded. Even though Teacher Fang Ming’s voice was quite pleasant, Lin Tian couldn’t withstand her relentless barrage and quickly nodded, escaping. Upon returning to the classroom, Lin Tian found a group of people gathered, boasting and jesting in a lively atmosphere. It seemed that ever since his arrival, the atmosphere in the senior class one had never been dull. Lin Tian didn’t know whether that was good or bad. It shouldn’t interfere with their studies, right? After all, isn’t joyful learning encouraged nowadays? A balance of relaxation and study is the proper way. "Hey, Brother Tian is back, Chen Herun, don’t go back on your word." Fatty Huang’s words baffled Lin Tian. As he passed by the two beauties, Zhang Lingyu and Xiao Manxuan, they also laughed strangely, making Lin Tian even more curious about what interesting thing had happened in the few minutes he was away. "Classmate Chen Herun, what on earth are you up to?" Lin Tian walked over and asked. "Brother Tian, I have a very serious question for you, and you must answer honestly," Fatty Huang suddenly said in earnest. "Go ahead, stop beating around the bush," Lin Tian said. "Miss Fang asked you to talk; how many days have you been punished to clean toilets? Three days? A week? Or half a month?" Fatty Huang asked with a look of anticipation. Dammit, so these people were discussing my toilet cleaning? Lin Tian wanted to smack him upon seeing Fatty’s hopeful expression. Me, an honest person like myself, would a teacher punish me? "My dear classmates, I sternly condemn you. How could a model student like me get punished? So, to your disappointment, Miss Fang didn’t punish me to clean toilets, hehe," Lin Tian chuckled, leaving everyone momentarily at a loss for words. "Brother Tian, why? Why wouldn’t you be punished to clean toilets? My buns, they’re gone," Fatty Huang wailed, prompting laughter from all the other students. "What does cleaning toilets have to do with your buns?" Lin Tian really felt like cutting off his flesh; all he ever thought about was eating. In the end, it was Chen Herun who explained, "Brother Tian, we bet on how many days you’d be cleaning toilets. Fatty bet on a week, I bet on three days. I lost, so I have to buy him meat buns for a week, and if he lost, he would have lent me his out-of-print math magazines for three months." "Damn it, you damn Fatty actually bet on me for a whole week. No, wait, there’s also the half-month bet. Who is that? Stand up now, I promise I won’t beat you to death," Lin Tian shouted. He was completely done with his classmates’ gossipy nature; it seemed that making them too lively wasn’t exactly a good thing. At this point, everyone in the class turned in unison to look at Zhang Lingyu and Xiao Manxuan. Without needing to say it, it was clear they were the ones who bet on the half month. "Ladies, it seems we need to have a private chat," Lin Tian returned to his seat and glanced at the two school beauties with a smile. "Hehe, it was Sister Yu who said it, oh. She said it would be best if you cleaned toilets for half a month since you always like to show off. I think so too. Showing off too much will attract girls," Xiao Manxuan said with a giggle, lifting her pretty face and looking provocatively at Lin Tian. "Ladies, seems like your butts are itching for a spanking, I will reluctantly help you out!" No sooner had Lin Tian finished speaking than his hands hidden under the table struck out to both sides. He made a feint towards Xiao Manxuan’s butt, and the little girl let out an "Ah" of shock and quickly covered her mouth with her hand, afraid of being heard, as her face quickly turned red. On the other hand, Lin Tian’s other hand encountered resistance and was caught by Zhang Lingyu, who had an inexplicable smile on her face. Updated from freewebnovel(.)com
