High School Belle Fell in Love with Me-Chapter 29: Disgusted by My Own Hypocrisy
Li Yang didn’t plan to have any interaction with Liu Dayou, so he didn’t bother with some minor issues before. It wasn’t worth getting into conflicts with someone he was destined not to cross paths with.
After all, as the head teacher, saying certain things can be considered a responsible act.
But damn it, blaming all the problems on himself was just shameless.
He’s in his forties, surely he knows it takes two to tango?
Did they commit a crime? Or did their public display of affection set a bad example?
None of that!
They were just discussing some issues together during the lunch break.
During formal class time, he never asked Jiang Banxia to respond to him, and Jiang Banxia knew what attending class meant.
Everyone was doing their utmost to follow the rules, so what was the result?
"Li Yang, are you trying to rebel!"
"You damn well dare?"
Li Yang directly hung up on Liu Dayou and then went to the small woods to continue reviewing problems.
He couldn’t reach Jiang Banxia, nor did he know where she lived.
Clearly, Jiang Banxia’s family had intervened.
The last time, it was alright. When he sent Jiang Banxia back, her family might have seen it.
But throughout the past week, they had only met once, at lunchtime yesterday.
After going through some problems, his phone rang.
When he took it out and looked, it was marked as Xue Ning.
Of course, he knew Xue Ning, as in his previous life, he had quite some interactions with her in Jiang City.
Of course, having her phone number was mainly because she was his geography teacher in the first semester of high school, and they were from the same village.
In the second semester of grade one, after the arts and sciences class division, he entered Liu Dayou’s class; in the first semester of grade one, they had to study politics, history, and geography, with a total score of 1050.
At that time, Xue Ning was just a freshly graduated student from a teacher’s college. Having a contact number because of the village connection was normal.
Even though he promised Wang Manqi in QQ that she was the only girl, he dared not promise that she was the only girl in his phone contacts.
Just now, they should still be in high school, right? Xue Ning hadn’t divorced... wait, she hadn’t even married yet.
He couldn’t for the life of him remember why Xue Ning called him at this time in his previous life.
After answering the call, he was thinking about how to talk to Xue Ning because it was inevitably a bit awkward.
But then he heard Jiang Banxia say, "Li Yang, it’s Jiang Banxia, where are you?"
"Ah? I’m by the dormitory building in the small woods, why is Master Jiang using Teacher Xue’s phone to call me?"
"I... forgot to bring my phone with me."
In just a few words, Li Yang felt that things were definitely not simple.
First, Jiang Banxia didn’t call him Master Li, indicating she was in a bad mood.
Secondly, that phone was secretly purchased. Even if she went out, she would definitely carry it with her to prevent her family from finding out.
The only possibility was that after hiding the phone at home, she left in such a hurry that she forgot even her phone.
"Are you with Teacher Xue now?"
"Yes. Wait for me a bit, I’ll come find you soon."
Li Yang: "..."
Thankfully, she didn’t make him go find her; otherwise, he’d inevitably meet Xue Ning.
He didn’t remember much about the twenty-something Xue Ning because the more than thirty-something Xue Ning in his past life left such a deep impression that it overshadowed her younger self.
About ten minutes later, Jiang Banxia came over.
Then Li Yang awkwardly realized that Xue Ning was following not far behind.
Only Jiang Banxia approached, while Xue Ning stopped at the small woods entrance.
A twenty-five-year-old Xue Ning...
That kind of classical elegance, ugh, it’s none of my business!
Still, Master Jiang is better, Xue Ning is a strange person.
Jiang Banxia’s bright little face, her eyes clear and gentle, often with a sweet smile at the corners of her mouth...
But as Jiang Banxia got closer, he realized these were all gone.
Today’s Jiang Banxia was still wearing yesterday’s clothes, which was very unusual.
Jiang Banxia did have a lot of similar styles, but in summer, she generally changed every day.
Wearing yesterday’s clothes suggested she encountered something the previous night.
Plus, a faint haze between her brows and usually bright eyes now turned dull.
Li Yang walked over and said, "Who bullied our Master Jiang? Seems I was too lenient with that guy Liu Dayou just now. No, I need to make another call and curse him more."
"Huh?"
Jiang Banxia was startled.
Li Yang meant what he said and immediately took out his phone to call Liu Dayou again.
The moment the call connected, he started cursing, "Liu Dayou, you son of a bitch, did you think I’d respect you? Always dealing with those filthy matters, never achieving anything decent in life!"
After cursing, Li Yang hung up the phone, giving Liu Dayou no chance to retort.
Jiang Banxia was dumbstruck, "Are you crazy? That’s the class teacher."
Li Yang said nonchalantly, "So what if he’s the class teacher? Besides, I’m no longer his student, who cares what he is. Back then, I was showing him respect by calling him the old class. Without that, he’s nothing!"
Jiang Banxia’s heart raced; although it was Li Yang who made the call, she felt it was no different from her making it herself.
Such a defiant act was truly a first in her life.
Moreover, Li Yang didn’t even ask for the details; he merely saw her looking upset and then stood up for her without hesitation?
Li Yang stood beside, witnessing Jiang Banxia’s eyes turning bright in a very short time, even her expression seemed a bit... excited?
Hope she’s not like Xue Ning...
No, no, it can’t be.
Can’t even imagine what it would be like if Master Jiang was like Xue Ning.
Jiang Banxia hesitantly asked, "Do I have face with you?"
"Master Jiang definitely has face, and it’s the kind you can’t not give."
Jiang Banxia smiled and said, "Then let’s start reviewing quickly. Today, I, Master Jiang, will give you face and hand over all my treasured good stuff!"
"Here I come!"
At the stone table in the small woods, Jiang Banxia picked up Li Yang’s paper and began focusing.
While waiting beside, Li Yang hung up on Liu Dayou’s several calls.
At the same time, he received a message from Xue Ning.
"Li Yang, I have to go to class now. Don’t let Jiang Banxia leave you. I’ll pick her up after class."
Li Yang replied, "Don’t worry, Teacher Xue. Did something happen in Jiang Banxia’s family?"
"Just some minor conflicts, but after this, just come to my house. Jiang Banxia is staying with me. I’ll make room for a desk for you two, so she doesn’t have to keep going out. Her family won’t worry."
"But I don’t know where Teacher Xue lives."
Li Yang felt a little disgusted with his own hypocrisy.
Damn it, he knew perfectly well, could even remember vividly the number of fire hoses in the stairwell.
