Chapter 552 - Jiang Jie and Teng Shu
Chapter 552: Jiang Jie and Teng Shu
“Remember, you can create a scene in other classes, but if you dare to create a scene in my class, don’t blame me for not giving you face.”
Xiao Jing scanned the people behind her sternly. When her gaze landed on Lu Sheng and Chu Yan, the sharpness in her eyes dissipated.
She smiled at the duo and turned around to continue her lesson.
“Gigolo, just you wait!”
After school, Yang Xiu walked past Chu Yan and even glared at him fiercely.
Chu Yan glanced at him coldly but did not react.
“Do you know where the dining hall is?”
Lu Sheng asked Chu Yan softly.
Chu Yan nodded. “Let’s go and eat.”
The two of them went to the dining hall to get some rice. Just as they sat down and were about to start eating, their vision suddenly darkened.
When they looked up, they saw Yang Xiu and two burly men in suits standing at the dining table.
Yang Xiu pointed at the two of them and said, “It was the two of them who hit me.”
“You’re the ones who hit my Young Master?”
The two bodyguards cracked their knuckles.
“Get lost.”
Chu Yan said coldly.
“Do you know who our Young Master is? How dare you hit him? I think you’re tired of living!”
One of the bodyguards warned fiercely.
“I said get lost.”
Chu Yan looked up and stared coldly at Yang Xiu. “If you don’t want to be expelled, bring your men and get lost.”
“Oh?” Yang Xiu laughed coldly. “Do you really think you’re some big shot? You even dare to expel me. How arrogant! If you really had some capabilities, you would have long gone to Class One. Why would you be in Class Seven?”
Those with power and authority would usually be arranged to enter Class One immediately.
After passing the test results, the classes would be redivided again.
As for these two people, they came to Class Seven directly. One could tell that they did not have much capabilities. He was not afraid.
“Hit…”
Before Yang Xiu could finish his sentence, a ‘ball’ rolled in. “Young Master Chu, Young Master Chu!”
This ball was actually a human. He was not tall and had a round figure. He had a pair of yellow-rimmed glasses on his nose.
When Yang Xiu saw who it was, he immediately retreated.
The person said ingratiatingly, “Young Master Chu, how’s the food in the dining hall? Does it suit your taste?”
“There’s nothing wrong with the dishes. It’s just that some students in your school are too annoying. They’re like flies, buzzing around my ears every day. I can’t chase them away.”
Originally, when Yang Xiu brought people over, no one paid attention.
After all, such things were common among the students of Class Seven.
Especially when such a thing happened every time a new student came, everyone was long used to it.
However, seeing that even the principal came personally today, everyone could not help but be curious about the identities of these two new students.
“Who?”
Principal Gu looked around and finally landed on the terrified Yang Xiu. “Rascal, was it you?”
“No, no… It’s not me!”
Yang Xiu shook his head repeatedly and his gaze towards Chu Yan became incomparably terrified.
Even the usually elusive principal came personally to inquire. Who was this person?
He escaped in a panic with his bodyguards.
Lu Sheng raised her eyebrows and snorted disdainfully.
These people indeed bullied the weak and feared the strong. However, this school was too scary. They even brought bodyguards to school? What was going on?
“Principal Gu, can we bring bodyguards to school?” Chu Yan asked faintly.
Principal Gu shook his head. “No, that guy was kidnapped before. That’s why he was allowed to bring them along.”
When Chu Yan heard that, he said indifferently, “But he used them to bully the new students.”
“In that case, we’ll let his bodyguards wait outside the school gate in the future. They can only come in to fetch him after school. What do you think, Young Master Chu?” Principal Gu asked carefully.
He had no choice. The school was built with money. How could he not receive them well?
Chu Yan nodded. “That’s good.”
“Then…”
Before Principal Gu could say anything, Chu Yan waved his hand. “I want to eat.”
“Take your time!”
Then, he left quickly.
Lu Sheng could not help but click her tongue. Although Principal Gu’s legs were short, he walked quite quickly.
Without anyone causing trouble, the duo could finally eat their lunch in peace.
The dormitory for lunch break was like a mansion. Lu Sheng was secretly shocked.
She finally understood why the school fees were so expensive.
A hundred thousand yuan for half a semester and food and accommodation were provided. This price was actually not expensive for this school.
Lu Sheng did not know if other people’s dormitories were the same as theirs. It was a small mansion with a total of two floors. There were two rooms on the second floor. There were even computers in the rooms. The bathroom was independent, and the bed was the same as the one in hotels.
There was a television, couch, and a small bar counter on the first floor.
How was she here for school? She was obviously here to enjoy herself.
Not to mention Lu Sheng, even Chu Yan was not used to this kind of ‘dormitory.’
Although his family was rich, he had been studying in City H since he was young. Hence, like Lu Sheng, this was the first time he saw such a dormitory.
“Is this… really a dormitory?”m
Lu Sheng could not help but ask.
Chu Yan said, “No matter what, the environment is indeed good.”
Lu Sheng nodded in agreement.
“Rest. You still have to suffer in the afternoon.”
When Chu Yan thought of that class, he could not help but have a headache.
However, he had chosen these himself. He could only wait for the mid-year examination to arrive early.
The duo slept after setting the alarm.
Class started at three, so they slept until half past two.
Seeing that it was almost time for class, the duo initially thought that they were the last to arrive. Unexpectedly, there was no one in the class when they arrived.
There were less than two minutes left before class started.
The two of them looked at each other and shook their heads.
It was only when the bell rang that those people walked in, yawning.
Yang Xiu initially wanted to enter from the front door. However, when he saw Chu Yan, he retreated and went around to the back door.
His actions rendered the two of them speechless.
As Chu Yan chose science, Lu Sheng also chose science.
To Lu Sheng, besides chemistry, everything else in this class was a bit boring.
As to why she found chemistry class the most interesting? Because she could do experiments in the laboratory.
It was unknown what Yang Xiu said to the students in class. Recently, everyone would avoid the two of them whenever they encountered them, as if they were poisonous snakes and ferocious beasts.
“You’re Lu Sheng?”
On Thursday afternoon, Lu Sheng had just come out of the toilet when she was suddenly surrounded by a group of girls.
They were all wearing their school uniforms, and their hair colors were natural. They were different from the gangsters in their class.
Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow and asked calmly, “What’s the matter?”
“This!”
One of the girls took out a pink letter from her school uniform and passed it to Lu Sheng. “Can you pass it to Chu Yan for me?”
Lu Sheng looked at the heart on the envelope and suddenly smiled.
“What are you laughing at?”
Lu Sheng smiled and said, “Didn’t anyone tell you that Chu Yan is my boyfriend?”
The girls froze and became awkward.
Lu Sheng smiled and walked past them to return to class.
“Why did you take so long?”
Chu Yan put down the exercise book in his hand and asked her.
“It’s all because of you!”
Lu Sheng pouted and spoke gloomily.
“Me?” Chu Yan raised his eyebrows innocently. “What about me?”
He had clearly been sitting in the classroom and had not done anything!
Lu Sheng snorted coldly. “Your admirers blocked my way.”
Chu Yan paused and smiled. He seemed to be in a good mood.
“Haven’t you been dreaming recently?”
Lu Sheng took out her textbook and asked softly.
“No.” Chu Yan shook his head. “Ever since I dreamed that girl fell into my arms covered in blood, the dream stopped.”
Lu Sheng smiled. “That’s because the story ended there.”
She supported her head and sighed softly. “I suddenly feel that farming in Liu Yue Village is much more interesting than studying here!”
However, Chu Yan was still thinking about her previous sentence. “What do you mean by the story ended there?”
“Oh, because I died. Then, I returned to Five Peaks with Master to live for a while. After that, I returned to this world.”
Chu Yan frowned. “So, my dream was really our experience in our previous life?”
“Yes, do you think I lied to you?”
“I don’t think you’re lying to me. I just find it unbelievable!”
Lu Sheng was really his wife from his previous life. That was great!
The two of them were speaking in a low voice when a female teacher suddenly walked in.
The others were still chatting and laughing. Only Lu Sheng and Chu Yan stared suspiciously at the person on the rostrum.
They had never seen this teacher before. She should be new.
“Hello, everyone. I’m the new teacher. My name is Jiang Jie.”
As she spoke, she wrote ‘Jiang Jie’ on the blackboard.
“From now on, I’ll teach your language class.”
The others were still muttering. Jiang Jie looked very helpless. However, someone must have given her a heads up before she came. Hence, her expression did not seem to change much when she saw such students.
“Hello, Teacher Jiang!”
Lu Sheng smiled and shouted.
Jiang Jie’s gaze landed on her and Chu Yan immediately. She could not help but smile in relief.
Perhaps she felt that there were two people in the class who could be saved?
“Let’s start class.”
Jiang Jie flipped open the language textbook.
Lu Sheng stared at her for a long time. In the end, she subconsciously frowned.
There was actually a strong demonic aura on Jiang Jie, but she was clearly a human.
There were two types of demons. One was a low-level demon, while the other was a high-level demon. Those like Shangguan Dian had already surpassed both types and were closer to gods.
Lu Sheng could not smell anything on Shangguan Dian, but when ordinary demons approached, she could smell the fishy smell that belonged to demons.
Chu Yan frowned.
Lu Sheng leaned closer and asked softly, “Do you smell it too?”
Chu Yan nodded slightly.
Lu Sheng glanced at Jiang Jie and realized that she was still lecturing amidst the noise.
There were only two possibilities for a human to have demonic aura. Either they had formed a union with demons before, or they had lived with demons for a long time.
As for Jiang Jie, Lu Sheng could not determine which type she belonged to now.
After class, Lu Sheng and Chu Yan looked at each other and nodded.
Lu Sheng caught up to Jiang Jie. “Teacher Jiang, wait!”
“What’s wrong?”
Jiang Jie turned back and looked at her gently.
As she approached, the demonic aura on her body became stronger.
“Nothing. I just wanted to ask if Teacher taught in Shuiqi previously too?”
Jiang Jie smiled and nodded. “Yes, I used to teach Year Ones. I was just transferred here to teach Year Threes.”
“Then, does Teacher have a boyfriend?” Lu Sheng’s expression was innocent as she said, “I have a brother. He’s very handsome. If Teacher doesn’t have a boyfriend, you can consider my brother!”
She had no choice. In order to investigate the demon around Jiang Jie, she could only come up with this.
Jiang Jie smiled. “Thank you, but I already have a boyfriend!”
When Lu Sheng heard that, she pretended to feel pity and said, “That’s a pity!”
Jiang Jie smiled and patted her shoulder. “Hurry up and eat. The teacher is going to eat too.”
Lu Sheng nodded slightly and watched her leave.
“How was it?”
Chu Yan carried his bag and held Lu Sheng’s bag with one hand.
Lu Sheng shook her head. “I’m not sure if that demon is her boyfriend or if that demon is hiding beside her.”
Some people’s bodies were prone to attracting demons, and Jiang Jie might very well have that kind of body.
“Let’s go and eat first.”
Chu Yan pulled her towards the dining hall.
Lu Sheng pursed her lips and said, “Do you think this demon is good or bad?”
If it was good, it was nothing.
Although humans and demons traveled different paths, she felt that humans and demons were much better than humans and ghosts.
At least they were alive. Moreover, as long as they could control themselves, they would not threaten the people beside them.
However, it was different for ghosts. Even if they did not have the intention to harm you, as long as they stayed by your side, your immunity would decrease and you would fall sick.
Chu Yan said in a low voice, “There are good and bad humans. It’s the same for demons. If the demon beside Jiang Jie is harmless to her, let him be.”
Lu Sheng nodded in agreement. “You’re right. However, to be safe, we have to take a look.”
After all, if he deliberately hid among the humans and wanted to harm them, she could not let him off.
On Jiang Jie’s side.
Holding a lunch box, she stood at the staircase and waited for someone.
After a while, a slender and handsome man in a suit walked over.
When she saw the man, Jiang Jie’s eyes lit up. “You’re here?”
“Yes.” The man smiled gently at her and walked to her side. He asked softly, “How does it feel to teach Year Threes for the first time?”
Jiang Jie sighed softly as she walked and said helplessly, “It’s not like you don’t know how Year Three, Class Seven is like. Why ask me?”
The man chuckled. “You can speak your mind like the other teachers. Ignore them.”
“I feel bad,” Jiang Jie said helplessly. “At least, not all of them can’t be saved. Two of them look good.”
“Oh?” The man raised an eyebrow. “Are there really students in this class who can be saved?”
Jiang Jie smiled and said, “I was a little surprised when I saw them at first. Not only were they good-looking, but they were also listening attentively in class. Their learning attitudes are not inferior to the students of Class One. I hope they can pass the mid-year examination and escape from their misery.”
The man nodded. “That should be taken care of.”
Lu Sheng and Chu Yan had already finished getting their in the dining hall. The two of them sat down and were about to eat when Lu Sheng happened to see Jiang Jie walking in with a man, chatting and laughing.
“Ah Yan, look over there.”
Lu Sheng nudged Chu Yan lightly with her elbow, hinting for him to look over.
Chu Yan looked over and happened to meet the man’s gaze.
Chu Yan nodded at the man and started eating.
Lu Sheng also retracted her gaze and said in a low voice, “It’s a tree demon, but there’s no dangerous aura on it. It seems like it’s a teacher. He’s quite handsome. No wonder Teacher Jiang Jie has such a sweet smile.”
Chu Yan paused in his actions and glanced at the man unhappily. He said in a low voice, “He’s alright.”
When Lu Sheng heard his familiar tone, she could not help but purse her lips and smile.
“Teacher Teng, Teacher Jiang, sit here!”
Jiang Jie and the man had just walked over when a few teachers waved at them.
“I heard that the two of you are getting your marriage certificate. When are you going to send us the wedding sweets?”
A skinny female teacher wearing glasses teased the duo.
Jiang Jie blushed and said, “We haven’t received it yet. Once we do, we’ll definitely send you wedding sweets.”
The man looked at her with a gentle gaze.
Lu Sheng observed curiously from the side. She suddenly felt that this tree demon seemed to exceptionally like Jiang Jie.
She casually conjured a few hand seals and secretly calculated their previous lives.
After calculating, understanding flashed across her eyes.
It turned out that this man was once a vine tree. As it grew in a land filled with spiritual energy and was constantly irrigated by a woman, he eventually transformed into a human.
However, when he transformed into a human and wanted to find this woman to repay the kindness of irrigation, the woman had already reincarnated.
Later on, after a long search, he finally found her in this world.
After Lu Sheng saw it, she could not help but sigh. She had to admit that this tree demon was quite persistent.
It was not easy to find the woman he loved after nearly a thousand years.
Since that was the case, there was no need for her to disturb him and repay his kindness. After all, she was not a monk.
“The sweet and sour pork today is not bad. Try it.”
Seeing Lu Sheng’s attention on the man from time to time, Chu Yan was extremely unhappy.
However, he did not dare to show it directly and could only serve Lu Sheng meat out of spite.
“Enough, enough. I can’t eat so much!”
Lu Sheng looked at the pile of sweet and sour pork and said aggrievedly, “Ah Yan, we can’t waste food. I can’t finish them alone.”
Actually, she could finish it. However, with so many people around, she could not let others know that she was a glutton.
Chu Yan’s heart softened and he took half of them back.
Lu Sheng chuckled and started eating.
When Jiang Jie heard Lu Sheng’s voice, she subconsciously turned back and happened to see the two students whom she had praised to Teng Shu just now.
When she looked over, Lu Sheng was whining pitifully to Chu Yan.
When she saw Chu Yan’s expression soften and he took a few pieces of meat back, Jiang Jie suddenly smiled silently.
Teng Shu followed her gaze and saw a pretty girl eating happily.
“You know them?” Teng Shu asked.
Jiang Jie smiled and nodded. “They’re the two students I told you about. It seems like they’re a couple.”
Teng Shu looked at Lu Sheng again and panic flashed across his eyes.
There was a golden light on that girl that terrified him. She was a cultivator!
