Half an hour later.
Lin Feng rushed along, finally arriving at the school.
Before he even stepped into the classroom, he heard Zhang Yuxi's voice coming from inside. Her voice was cold and clear, a stark contrast to the adorable, sweet girl she was at ho.
I wonder if she'll be shocked when she sees . Will she be startled?
Arriving at the classroom door, Lin Feng cleared his throat and called out loudly, "Teacher."
Upon hearing Lin Feng's voice, Zhang Yuxi thought she had misheard. But when she saw that all the students in the classroom were looking toward the entrance, she instinctively turned her head and jumped in shock.
"Te-Tea..."
She was about to say "Husband," but a jolt of awareness shot through her, and she quickly changed her words.
"Tea-Teacher, class has been in session for half the day. Why are you just now arriving?"
Lin Feng put on an apologetic expression. "I'm sorry, Teacher Zhang. I was held up by sothing."
Zhang Yuxi nodded and gestured toward the classroom. "Then hurry up and sit down. You can't be late again!"
Lin Feng walked to the back row and found a seat. At that mont, all the other students were staring at him with strange expressions. Lin Feng paid them no mind, taking out his textbook and pretending to follow the lesson.
Zhang Yuxi cleared her throat, deliberately avoiding looking in Lin Feng's direction.
"Alright, next! Let's talk about the first section of the *Records of the Grand Historian*..."
Her voice was steady and unhurried. Inside the classroom, everyone quieted down and listened with rapt attention. Lin Feng also perked up his ears, listening intently.
As a teacher, Zhang Yuxi was truly excellent. Her classes were always packed. While many of the male students were drawn by her beauty, a good number were genuinely there for her teaching ability. Having studied abroad, she was exceptionally knowledgeable and possessed her own unique insights into Chinese classics.
Lin Feng watched Zhang Yuxi on the podium, winking at her from ti to ti.
Zhang Yuxi couldn't completely ignore Lin Feng's presence. Every ti her gaze flickered in his direction, she would feel herself blush as her heart began to race. Lin Feng found this amusing and continued to stare at her.
Zhang Yuxi coughed lightly, trying to pretend Lin Feng didn't exist. But sotis, the more you try to ignore sothing, the more you notice it. The other students also noticed Zhang Yuxi's unusual behavior and kept glancing between her and Lin Feng. They had no idea about their relationship and simply assud that Teacher Zhang was smitten by Lin Feng's good looks.
Soon, the bell rang, signaling the end of class.
Zhang Yuxi finally let out a sigh of relief. She gathered her teaching materials, preparing to return to her office.
Just then, Lin Feng's voice called out. "Teacher Zhang. I have a few questions I don't understand. Could you help ?"
He's doing this on purpose! I already taught him this whole sester's curriculum. How could he not know the answers?
Lin Feng stood up with a look of soone eager to learn, his expression so convincing it was flawless. In the eyes of their classmates, they were simply a teacher and her student.
Zhang Yuxi nodded expressionlessly.
Seeing Lin Feng get up, other students gathered around him, asking how he had been.
"Lin Feng, why haven't you been coming to school lately?"
"I heard you and Liu Bo opened a shop. Is that true?"
"Lin Feng, since you're here today, does that an you'll be coming to class regularly now?"
Zhang Yuxi's womanly intuition told her that several of the female students were interested in Lin Feng. The class beauty, Li Yaoyao, was especially obvious, asking shyly, "Lin Feng, would you like to see a movie together tonight?"
"Ah, sorry about that!" Lin Feng shook his head with a smile. "I've been busy getting married lately, so I don't have ti!"
Zhang Yuxi, who had just taken a sip of water, nearly sprayed it all over her desk.
The male students were stunned.
"Lin Feng, you're really sothing else!"
"You're already busy getting married while you're still in university?"
"Is your wife pretty?"
Facing their questions, Lin Feng smiled and declared, "My wife is the most beautiful woman in the world!"
Hearing this, Li Yaoyao sighed in disappointnt. She quickly recovered, however, pretending it didn't bother her. "Well, in that case, forget it."
Lin Feng walked up to the podium with his textbook. "Teacher Zhang, could you explain this problem to ?" Th??s text ??s hosted at nov??lfire
"Isn't this one very simple..."
"And this one!"
"How can you be so slow? There are so many you don't understand!"
"I know. That's why I need to ask the teacher for help."
Their conversation was perfectly normal on the surface, yet the classmates sensed the unmistakable scent of romance in the air.
Are we just overthinking things?
Gradually, the other students left, leaving only Lin Feng and Zhang Yuxi in the classroom.
Zhang Yuxi snapped her book shut, her expression turning serious. "Why are you here?"
Leaning against the lectern, Lin Feng grinned. "Your mom said she'd help watch the baby and told
to co to class."
Zhang Yuxi's brow furrowed slightly. "Then what about Si Bao..."
"Don't worry, Si Bao adores your mother."
Hearing that, Zhang Yuxi finally relaxed. "Do you have another class later?"
"No, but I have a eting."
"Then I'll wait for you."
"Aren't you here for class? Hurry up and get to your next one!"
"I'm only here for *your*... class."
Lin Feng paused deliberately, and Zhang Yuxi's face instantly turned crimson.
In broad daylight! How dare he... How dare Lin Feng flirt with
like that!
Lin Feng put on an innocent look. "Teacher Zhang, why is your face red?"
"Why do you think?" Zhang Yuxi retorted, feigning annoyance.
"How would I know?" Lin Feng said, leaning in closer to whisper, "Teacher Zhang, did you get the wrong idea?"
They were so close now that it seed Lin Feng was about to kiss her in the next second.
"Teacher Zhang, there you are!" Han Wen's voice suddenly rang out.
Zhang Yuxi and Lin Feng both jumped. Zhang Yuxi stumbled back a step, flustered and panicked. Lin Feng, however, remained perfectly calm. He nonchalantly put on a face mask, completely unflappable, and even walked over to greet the newcor. "Hello, Teacher Han."
Zhang Yuxi had to admire Lin Feng's ability to stay composed in a crisis.
Han Wen looked a little surprised. "Lin Feng, you ca to class?"
"Yeah, I happened to be free today, so I ca by. There were a few problems I didn't get, so I asked Teacher Zhang to explain them."
Han Wen adopted a teacherly tone. "You're a good student, but you can't skip class so often. You have to study hard, you understand?"
"I will."
Han Wen then turned to Zhang Yuxi. "Teacher Zhang, I'd like to borrow your lesson plan for Cultural Studies."
Zhang Yuxi had composed herself by now. "It's in a drawer in my office."
"Oh. Then I'll go get it myself. You two carry on."
After taking a few steps, Han Wen suddenly turned back.
"Wait a minute! What were you two doing just now?"
I feel like I saw sothing just now.
"Teacher Zhang got sothing in her eye," Lin Feng said without missing a beat.
Han Wen said, "Oh."
Perhaps because she trusted Zhang Yuxi, or perhaps because Lin Feng's expression was so sincere, she didn't think much of it.
"Well, you two carry on. By the way, the next class is mine. Lin Feng, make sure you co, okay!"
Lin Feng smiled and nodded. "Sure."
After Han Wen left, Zhang Yuxi clutched her chest, her heart still pounding from the scare.
"What's there to be afraid of? If we get caught, we'll just go public!"
Zhang Yuxi shook her head. She still wanted to wait until after Lin Feng graduated. Lin Feng respected her wishes, but he honestly wouldn't mind if they were found out. In fact, he couldn't wait for the entire school to know that Zhang Yuxi was his wife.
"Hurry to your class. We'll go ho together later."
"Okay." Lin Feng packed up his textbook and said with a teasing expression, "Thank you, Teacher Zhang!"
Zhang Yuxi kept a straight face. "You're welco, Classmate Lin."
"I'll be sure to thank you properly tonight, Teacher Zhang."
Hearing this, Zhang Yuxi couldn't help but let her mind wander again.
