The gazes around them instantly turned from those of delight to sympathy.
Lu Ning: “”
She looked up at Huo Jinyan.
She seriously suspected that he was doing it on purpose.
“Keep your papers and open your textbooks.”
As soon as Huo Jinyan finished speaking, the rustling of papers being kept sounded in the classroom.
Then, Huo Jinyan began his lesson.
After class, Lu Ning sighed and stood up, heading out of the classroom. The troublemaker in the last row hurried over. “Sister Ning! Wait for me!”
Lu Ning paused for him.
He came over, and the two of them walked towards the office.
“Sister Ning, do you think Teacher Huo will use corporal punishment?”
Lu Ning: “Probably not.”
“Probably? Then it’s all over! It means he must be that sort.” Lu Ning: ??? Is that what I said?
Lu Ning became a little uncertain after listening to him.
Huo Jinyan wouldn’t really hit them, right?
Her mind automatically searched for those keywords, and it relayed a dangerous rumor to Lu Ning: Huo Jinyan, the Young Master of the Huo family, once hit someone so badly they became crippled.
Lu Ning:
She tightened her grip on her handbag.
“Sister Ning, what’s that you’re holding? Don’t tell me it’s a gift for Teacher! You’re so sneaky! Is it so that he won’t hit you?! If you had told me earlier, I would have prepared something too.” Lu Ning:
Lu Ning knocked on the staff office door.
“Come in.”
Huo Jinyan’s voice sounded, and Lu Ning pushed the door open and entered.
The two of them walked in and stood in front of Huo Jinyan’s desk.
Strangely, Huo Jinyan was the only one in the staff office.
The troublemaker was a chatterbox, but even he did not dare to utter a word in front of Huo Jinyan.
Huo Jinyan looked at him and handed him his test paper.
“Can’t you even write your own name?”
Lu Ning looked up curiously.
There were a few crooked words written where the name ought to be.
Lu Ning peered up at him in confusion. “Isn’t your name Li Run?”
Li Run scratched his head and chuckled.
“I was in a hurry, just in a hurry.”
Lu Ning could not help but laugh. How could this even be from writing in a hurry? They’re clearly different!
Huo Jinyan handed him a pen. “Write your name once for me.”
Li Run bent over the desk and wrote his name in a very proper manner.
“Teacher Huo, look, how is this?”
Huo Jinyan looked at his writing, then at him. It made Li Run nervous.
“See, it isn’t that hard.”
Li Run did not dare to speak and could only nod, afraid that Huo Jinyan would hit him. He even positioned himself behind Lu Ning.
“You can go.” Li Run:
Lu Ning:
That’s it?
Huo Jinyan looked at him, his voice low and deep. “You don’t want to go?”
Li Run: “No, no, that’s not it. Teacher, I’ll leave immediately! I’ll definitely write my name properly in the future!”
With that, he left in one smooth motion.
After closing the office door, he could not help but take a deep breath.
“Whew, that scared me to death.”
But, why does it feel like Teacher Huo didn’t really have the intention of punishing me?
It feels like he’s just going through the motions.
Well, who cares! I made it out alive!
Li Run grinned and walked back.
Lu Ning looked at the closed door, then turned to Huo Jinyan. “Teacher Huo, I wrote my name pretty well.”
Huo Jinyan looked up at her, a helpless smile on his face.
Huo Jinyan handed her her test paper.
Lu Ning looked at her name first.
It’s written quite well, if I do say so myself. It isn’t that good-looking, but anyone could tell that the words ‘Lu Ning were written there.
Lu Ning looked at Huo Jinyan and spoke up gingerly. “Is writing it like that not good enough?”
Huo Jinyan: “… Look at your score..”
