Chapter 1199: Chapter 1199: Extreme Misfortune Turns into Prosperity (8)

Why did Xiaona change her clothes?

Ruan Jiaojiao was utterly baffled.

Just before the end of the morning reading class, the English teacher stopped in front of Ruan Jiaojiao and said, “Student Ruan, please come over with me.”

Ruan Jiaojiao was distracted, so she didn’t hear him at first. It wasn’t until the English teacher called out again that she came to attention, looking up to see him smiling in front of her.

“Teacher Wu.” Ruan Jiaojiao blushed, thinking she’d been caught daydreaming.

The English teacher was young and quite handsome; he had just graduated from university last year and was assigned directly to their school. Rumor had it that because he was good-looking, an incident occurred when he arrived. Apparently, a senior girl wrote him a love letter, and since he was an English teacher, she wrote it in English.

He accepted the letter and even read it. Most importantly, he annotated it! With a red pen! He pointed out the grammatical errors and misspellings one by one. When the letter returned to the girl, one could imagine the outcome. Since then, she would avoid him whenever she saw him!

Whether this story was true or not, Ruan Jiaojiao didn’t know. She had just heard it like that; the truth was uncertain.

Now, seeing the attractive English teacher smiling in front of her, Ruan Jiaojiao inexplicably felt a shiver, like a chill on her back.

“Student Jiaojiao, could you step outside with me?” The English teacher’s voice was undeniably gentle.

Ruan Jiaojiao had no choice but to stand and follow him outside. Next to her, Xiu Xi also stood up, but the English teacher, walking ahead, didn’t notice Xiu Xi following until they got outside the classroom. He turned around and saw two students standing behind him.

“Student Xiu Xi, the teacher didn’t call you.” He looked at Xiu Xi, thinking he had misunderstood and followed: “I only called Ruan. You should go back and continue reading.”

Xiu Xi had good grades, top in the city; all the teachers in the first grade knew him, including the English teacher.

“I’ll accompany her,” Xiu Xi said calmly, showing no intention of returning to the classroom.

“…” English teacher.

I mean, he just wanted to say a few words to Ruan Jiaojiao, why would he need him here?

The English teacher was puzzled, trying to use a stern look to send him back, but Xiu Xi really wasn’t intimidated, just calmly stared back at him.

“…” After a moment, the English teacher gave up first. Fine, his eyes were getting tired. If he wants to stay, let him stay.

The English teacher was reluctant to admit he was outmatched in the staring contest, so he coughed in a formal manner, turning to ask gently, “Student Jiaojiao, I heard you were an English broadcaster in junior high. Your oral proficiency should be great then, could you read this text to me?”

As he spoke, the English teacher handed over the English book. The passage he referred to was the first chapter in the book.

Ruan Jiaojiao didn’t understand, but she took the book and began reading. She had a large vocabulary; although the lesson hadn’t been taught yet, she recognized almost all the words. She had reviewed it twice in the morning, reading the passage fluently without a hitch. Her pronunciation was standard and her voice clear, making it a delight to listen to.
