Zombie Bodyguard-Chapter 1599 - 1596: Grabbing Seats
That overseas returnee English teacher slandering Lin Tian from behind got him expelled by the school. It serves him right. Lin Tian is worried that male teachers might be interested in Xiao Manxuan. The little girl is too beautiful, and her every smile is very impactful. Sometimes even Lin Tian gets lost in them.
"Lin Tian, what are you thinking about? Our homeroom teacher is a woman." Xiao Manxuan chided.
Upon hearing it was a female teacher, Lin Tian felt relieved but still reminded, "Still, be careful of other perverts. By the way, what’s the name of that sports commissioner who stopped you the other day?"
"Zhao Weitao, seems like he’s a rich second generation." Xiao Manxuan replied.
"A rich second generation, huh? Hehe, if he keeps bothering you, let me know." Lin Tian said with a faint smile.
"Got it, I won’t say more. The teacher is calling me. Remember to have lunch, okay? Bye-bye." The sound of other people could be heard over the phone. Xiao Manxuan caringly reminded Lin Tian before hanging up.
Lin Tian looked at his phone and chuckled helplessly. What exactly is this little girl busy with, and why is she so secretive?
"Brother Lin, let’s have lunch together." Qiao Xiaoyi suddenly caught up from behind and invited with a smile.
Lin Tian turned around to look. Besides Qiao Xiaoyi, there were also the class monitor He Xiaofei, sports commissioner Mu Binglan, and other class committee members. It looked like they were going to have a meeting to discuss something.
"You guys have lunch and your meeting. I, a commoner, won’t disturb you." Lin Tian really didn’t want to play the third wheel.
"You’re a big man; are you afraid we’ll eat you?" Mu Binglan frowned when she saw Lin Tian refusing.
He Xiaofei pulled Mu Binglan aside and kindly said, "Classmate Lin Tian, don’t mind her. Binglan speaks directly. Come along; what we’re discussing concerns the whole class. You can be the representative for the boys, how about that?"
"It’s better to accept than to decline. Let’s go then." Lin Tian casually said.
The sports field is closest to the central dining hall, so the group chose this nearest dining hall because Jinghua University’s campus is so large, with many dining halls around.
Although there are many dining halls, each one is still crowded. When Lin Tian and his group arrived, each window had long lines.
"Why don’t we get a private room upstairs?" suggested one of the class committee members.
"No need," He Xiaofei immediately rejected the suggestion. "Having a meeting in a private room as class committee members would set a bad example in the class. Let’s just wait in line; it won’t take long."
Lin Tian was surprised to glance at He Xiaofei, not expecting the class monitor to be so sensible. Nowadays, even trivial matters are solved over alcohol; this trend is quite damaging.
As the group walked in, conversations suddenly came from behind, sounding familiar to Lin Tian, like something he had just heard yesterday.
"I say, Liu Yuansi, you’re also eating in the dining hall? At least get a private room upstairs, right?"
"Brother Zhao, you don’t get it. It’s just the two of us—eating in a private room is dull. But downstairs, it’s different, with so many young and beautiful female students to look at. That’s entertaining."
"The girls at Jinghua University aren’t just for you to flirt with. They have ambitions."
"Come on, Brother Zhao, modesty is about having little to wager, and loyalty is about not having enough to betray. This inexperienced bunch doesn’t understand the allure of money. Heh heh..."
The words made He Xiaofei and the others frown. Lin Tian glanced back slightly; it was indeed the sports commissioner he met last night, Zhao Weitao. As for the person beside him, Lin Tian also recognized him.
"Brother Lin, do you know them?" Qiao Xiaoyi curiously asked when he saw Lin Tian look back.
"You know them too. Don’t you remember the guy who bumped into you that day?" Lin Tian said indifferently.
Qiao Xiaoyi was slightly surprised but then remembered, "Oh right, the guy in the black T-shirt. The other must be the one who drove the sports car."
"Ignore them; every school has a few self-righteous rich kids." Mu Binglan said coldly.
Lin Tian just smiled without saying anything. They might be self-righteous, but still, a large number of girls will fall for them under the attack of their sports cars, bouquets of flowers, branded clothes, and handbags.
"Brother Zhao, I think I see that person." Liu Yuansi suddenly said.
"You mean Xiao Manxuan’s friend?" Brother Zhao frowned.
Liu Yuansi sneered maliciously, "That’s right, Brother Zhao. Wait for it; I’m going to give him a hard time. Watch me put him in his place." Zhao Weitao showed a hint of a smile but neither agreed nor stopped him.
Lin Tian and his group entered the dining hall, queued up, got their meals, and just as a window view table became available, they set down their dishes, only for someone to suddenly rush over and take the seat first.
"Sorry, I saw this seat first. Please take your food elsewhere." A person leaned lazily against the chair, glancing at Lin Tian’s group.
"It’s you?" Qiao Xiaoyi immediately recognized the person as Liu Yuansi, who arrogantly bumped into others before.
Liu Yuansi sized up Qiao Xiaoyi, frowned, and thought for a while before realizing, "Oh, it’s you. What a coincidence."
"Xiaoyi, is he your friend?" He Xiaofei asked.
Qiao Xiaoyi shook his head, "No." But he didn’t mention what happened that day; he was too kind.
Mu Binglan coldly looked at Liu Yuansi, "If he’s not your friend, then scram."
"Oh, a spicy girl, but it’s useless. I don’t fancy you. I took this seat first, so move aside and don’t disturb my meeting with friends." Liu Yuansi did whatever he pleased, not paying attention to Lin Tian’s group at all.
"If you don’t scram, you’re asking for a beating." Mu Binglan heavily placed her lunchbox down, spilling the food. Her anger was no small matter.
The noise drew the attention of the surrounding people, who craned their necks to see what was happening.
Qiao Xiaoyi quickly said, "Don’t get physical. It’s not worth it over a seat. Let’s talk this out."
Mu Binglan frowned at Qiao Xiaoyi with apparent disdain, "Why are you muddling things up? If you’re scared, stand aside."
Lin Tian quietly shook his head. Does this Qiao Xiaoyi have an emotional intelligence problem? Behaving so timidly before the woman he likes—how would she ever like you? Besides, Mu Binglan is a fiery fighter.
A person who is too kind gets bullied, as a gentle horse gets ridden. Even kindness should have its limits, especially towards someone who provokes you.
Seeing Qiao Xiaoyi about to speak, Lin Tian quickly put a hand on his shoulder to stop him. If he spoke again, Mu Binglan might turn around and scold him.
"Why are you still standing there? You’re an eyesore." Liu Yuansi said, glancing meaningfully at Lin Tian.
Lin Tian, who could always see through people’s hearts with a Wisdom Eye, immediately understood. This Liu Yuansi and Zhao Weitao were in cahoots and were here specifically to provoke him.
