CHAPTER 36: CHAPTER 36: OH NO, IT’S THE DOMINATING DEMON MISS SHAKIMA!

This resentful gaze made Lin Li feel completely uncomfortable, as if trapped in an iron maiden.

Koukou Teacher, please have some self-respect, looking at me with such eyes, if your husband saw this, he’d kill me!

Being beaten to death like this would be really unjust.

"Teacher, is something wrong?" Worried that he’d wake up in the middle of the night to find Koukou Teacher standing by the bed looking at him like this, Lin Li cautiously asked.

"Lin Li, do you have any opinions about the teacher?" Koukou asked seriously.

The younger the teacher, the more they care about the students’ attitudes.

Those veteran teachers, who are not homeroom teachers, would just laugh about such situations and let it go.

No, they probably don’t even remember who Lin Li is.

"Opinions?" Lin Li thought for a moment, then seriously said, "Teacher, I think you suit curly ends very well. Your hair today must have been curled with an iron, right? It looks great. I think you could handle even curlier hair, so why not just go to the salon and get it done once and for all?"

"Really? I also think today’s hairstyle is nice," Koukou’s eyes lit up, nodding heavily, twirling her hair with her finger, "What do you think about curling it to this extent?"

"Very good, it definitely looks better than the usual straight hair," Lin Li agreed.

"Your taste is just as good as the teacher’s. The teacher will listen to you and try it tomorrow..." Koukou suddenly shut her mouth and silently lowered her head.

What the hell am I doing!

I came to question Lin Li about his opinion of me, so how did we end up talking about hair!

"What the teacher wants to hear isn’t this kind of opinion..." Koukou spoke again.

"But when it comes to clothes, my sense of style is terrible, I have no opinions to offer," Lin Li shook his head, bravely admitting his shortcomings.

"It’s not about clothes either!" Koukou raised her voice, "The teacher wants to ask why, despite everyone saying you’ve been studying diligently, I can’t feel it in my English class!"

The loudness startled Lin Li, making him jerk back and inhale sharply.

After he understood, he blinked.

Oh no, it’s not about having less but about fairness, Koukou was originally upset about inequality here.

After careful consideration, Lin Li softly explained, "Koukou Teacher, is it possible they were actually being sarcastic, and I haven’t been paying attention at all?"

Koukou: "?"

"That’s right! That’s it! Rest assured, Koukou Teacher, I haven’t been listening in any of my other classes either!" Lin Li felt more confident as he thought about it.

I’m truly a genius.

"You admit you’ve completely ignored English class?" Judging by Koukou’s increasingly resentful gaze, she didn’t believe his words and seemed to catch on to the important part.

Lin Li was stunned: "?"

Oh no! She’s a bad woman! Are you Miss Kayako the Demon of Control or something?

Koukou is digging a pit for me!

Dammit, is this the insidiousness of an adult woman? Truly hard to guard against.

"Sometimes I listen too... ha, ha, ha..."

Lin Li chuckled awkwardly.

Oh dear, the resentment attribute is still increasing.

Even if Kayako came, she’d probably have to be a servant.

It’s already reached the level of a ghost in red clothes.

Scratching his head and thinking quickly, Lin Li finally lowered his head and honestly apologized, "I’m sorry teacher, I’ll listen more carefully in the future. I truly have no complaints about you, who would have complaints about the best-looking teacher, gomen nasai, I’m so so so sorry."

The one with complaints isn’t me, it’s my abstract system!

From now on, I definitely won’t slack off so blatantly! Koukou Teacher!

At least I’ll cover it up a bit from now on!

Lin Li silently added in his heart.

"Sigh, the teacher remembers your words and hopes you can do it. The teacher also has to go home now, bye-bye," Koukou shook her head somewhat helplessly before finally getting up to leave.

"Goodbye, teacher."

After Koukou left, the previously busy office was suddenly left with only Lin Li.

Just as Lin Li began to wonder if Xue Jian was suffering from constipation, he finally returned.

Seeing Lin Li, he nodded: "Here to pick up the banner?"

"Yes, teacher."

"Good." Xue Jian nodded, went to his place, and began fiddling with his phone.

While Lin Li was puzzled, Xue Jian showed the phone screen to Lin Li.

Curious, Lin Li looked.

[To Teacher Xue of Nansang Middle School in Xiling County: Teaching sincerely, mentorship yields students everywhere. Student XXX respectfully presents...]

An image of a banner.

At first, Lin Li didn’t understand why Xue Jian showed this to him. Once he realized, he felt inexplicable.

"..."

Elder Xue surprisingly cares about face.

The offhand remark I made this morning, he remembered so clearly.

But he knew what he should say at this moment.

"Wow, is this the banner that parents previously gave to the teacher? It’s so well-made!"

Apparently, Lin Li’s words made Xue Jian very happy. After a few exchanges of modest compliments, Xue Jian finally bent down to open the drawer, beginning to look for Lin Li’s banner.

His phone was left on the desk, and perhaps because he accidentally touched the screen when putting it down, the full-screen image shrank back.

The phone displayed WeChat, as the picture came from a chat.

Lin Li instinctively looked over.

The contact was "Wife."

「Xue Jian: Is it not done yet?」

「Wife: Almost done, nearly finished.」

「Wife: You’re really something, Xue Jian, everything about you is fine except for caring about face. Making a banner for yourself, it’s embarrassing for me.」

「Xue Jian: Don’t worry about it, it’s because you didn’t take care of it earlier.」

「Wife: Alright.」

「Wife:「Picture」」

The content of that picture was self-evident.

Lin Li blinked, as if he had seen something incredible.

"Hey, Lin Li, your—" And at this moment, Xue Jian just happened to stand up with Lin Li’s banner, speech halted.

Lin Li’s gaze was still fixed on the screen.

It seemed too late to turn away now.

With his peripheral vision, he already sensed a faint murderous aura.

"..."

"Gulp."

Lin Li gulped loudly.

He watched the screen, Xue Jian watched him, until the screen automatically turned off, leaving Lin Li nothing to look at.

Lin Li raised his head and, at that moment, the two locked eyes, but they tacitly said nothing.

They stared at each other, feeling nothing but disappointment.

Am I having a hallucination? Why do I see a red danger symbol above my head?

What’s with the flashbacks; I don’t want to start reminiscing about my life! Stop the scene now! Medicine! Ah!

Somebody save me! Miracle Worker, come on, help out!

Damn, looks like I have to save myself.

Lin Li suddenly covered his eyes fiercely, wailing:

"Ah ah ah ah ah Erkang, I can’t see! Why can’t I suddenly see anymore!

Ah ah ah ah ah The red light on left turns is the hardest to wait at!

Ah ah ah ah ah I suddenly remembered, I actually have periodic blindness, occasionally becoming blind, but why did it suddenly act up now..."

Xue Jian: "..."
