“Teacher, these charms, I drew them all by myself. You can try them out for free!” Huang Xiaolong said in a laid-back manner. “If you find any of them to be fake, I…I’ll drop out of school immediately!”
“No, Huang Xiaolong, don’t overreact. I didn’t mean it like that…” Chu Tingting glanced at the charms on the table, wrinkly and shriveled, just like a plate of sauerkraut.
Then she raised her head to look at Huang Xiaolong, “Well…then let me try one. But, how do I test it?”
“These charms, I have consecrated all of them, so ordinary people can use them too. You don’t have to bother with any special precautions or incantations.” Huang Xiaolong explained.
“Okay! I’ll pick one then.” Chu Tingting carefully picked up a charm. “How do I use this one?”
Huang Xiaolong took a look and blurted out subconsciously, “Oh, that’s an X-Ray charm. Just stick it on your forehead and it will take effect.”
Without second thought, Chu Tingting did as Huang Xiaolong said and pressed the charm onto her forehead.
“Er… something seems a little off.” Huang Xiaolong paused for a moment.
The next moment!
A golden light flashed in Chu Tingting’s eyes!
Then, in her vision, Huang Xiaolong’s clothes began to fade, fade, and finally…they were transparent!
She saw Huang Xiaolong’s fair and clean body, his relatively muscular chest, and his v-line…
Her gaze moved down further…
Bang!!!!!!!!
Chu Tingting’s brain was about to explode!
Blankness!
My god!
She saw Huang Xiaolong naked!
This was the first time in her life that she had seen the body of an adult male!
“Ah!” Chu Tingting quickly covered her eyes, her face was burning red, and her heartbeat suddenly sped up!
She was panicking, nervous, scared, and embarrassed!
In the office, it was just her and Huang Xiaolong. This situation was truly mortifying!
“Miss Teacher, you… you sure know how to pick. You picked the X-Ray charm… I’m so dizzy! You’ve tarnished my innocence! You need to take responsibility!” Huang Xiaolong crossed his arms, pretended to be wronged, and acted as if he was about to cry…
These paper charms are single-use. Thus, the X-Ray charm on Chu Tingting’s forehead spontaneously combusted and turned into ashes.
“Darn it! Do you think I wanted to take advantage of you?” Chu Tingting stomped her foot in embarrassment. “Your charms, they’re absolutely… absolutely vulgar!”
“Er… alright, Miss Teacher, it’s okay now, the charm has burned away. You can uncover your eyes.” Huang Xiaolong grinned.
Actually, for a grown man, being seen naked by a vibrant beauty is not really something embarrassing, right
Chu Tingting carefully removed her hands and her face was blushingly shy, stunningly gorgeous.
“Well, Miss Teacher, even my own wife and Sister Xiaoman haven’t seen my innocent body.” Huang Xiaolong grumbled.
“Stop talking! This matter, keep it a secret! Don’t tell anyone, understand?” Chu Tingting angrily ordered.
“Oh, okay, Miss Teacher. I won’t say anything, I’ll keep it a secret. This is our little secret.” Huang Xiaolong playfully replied.
“However… your charms, they seem, to be real.” That magical X-Ray charm had sparked Chu Tingting’s great interest and confidence in Huang Xiaolong’s charms.
“Of course, they’re real. I drew them myself.” Huang Xiaolong laughed.
“Huang Xiaolong, it seems you really have some skills. Who did you learn from?” Chu Tingting asked with interest.
“This… Miss Teacher, I can’t tell you. Because I’m afraid the truth might scare you.” Huang Xiaolong replied vaguely.
“Whatever, you don’t want to tell me. I got it, everyone has their own secrets, I won’t press you. Huang Xiaolong, I want to buy an Amulet and a peace charm. Do you have them?” Chu Tingting eagerly asked.
“Yes, I do.” Huang Xiaolong nodded.
“How much?” Chu Tingting asked a bit nervously.
Last time she went to the temple to buy a fake peace charm, it cost her a whopping 5000 yuan. Huang Xiaolong had the real deal; wouldn’t he jack up the price?
Chu Tingting had just started working, and with monthly responsibilities like rent, utilities, and internet, she didn’t have much savings.
“Ah…one amulet…one peace charm…” Huang Xiaolong mumbled, eyes darting back and forth as if pondering the price.
“Uh…Huang Xiaolong, I’m your teacher and…look, I’m not exactly wealthy,” Chu Tingting tried to pout, her big watery eyes pouring into Huang Xiaolong’s.
She silently despised herself. ‘Chu Tingting! You’re stooping so low! You’re flirting with your student just to negotiate the price! What is wrong with you!’
“Beautiful Teacher, all together it’s 200 yuan,” Huang Xiaolong bit the bullet and stated the price.
“How much?” Chu Tingting was stunned.
“Uh…how about 180 yuan?” Huang Xiaolong proposed with a smirk.
To be honest, creating these talismans was easy for him. Paper talismans were the simplest and lowest-level ones, disposable, and in his world view, even 100 to 200 yuan was a profit.
Actually, if he were to sell them on the market, they’d probably be pricelessly valuable!
“Beautiful Teacher, you don’t want it?” Huang Xiaolong asked timidly.
“I’ll take it! I’ll take 20!” Chu Tingting was thrilled!
Damn, these are real talismans! Just 180 yuan for 2!
Only an idiot wouldn’t take this deal!
“Ah beautiful teacher, it seems like I sold them off cheaply,” Huang Xiaolong admitted with a rueful shake of his head. “Beautiful Teacher, you better not buy these talismans.”
“Are you backing out?” Chu Tingting was indignant. “Huang Xiaolong, a real man doesn’t act like this.”
“Beautiful Teacher, I’m not backing out. To tell you the truth, you’ve encountered unclean things. The peace charm and the amulet might protect you for a while, but not forever. Buying talismans only treats the symptoms, not the root cause. I’ll personally visit your home and deal with the source,” Huang Xiaolong offered with a smile.
“You… how do you know I’ve encountered unclean things?” Chu Tingting gazed at Huang Xiaolong in astonishment.
“Beautiful Teacher, unless you’ve encountered something unclean, why would you need to purchase peace charms? Also, there’s a dark aura on your forehead, bloodshot eyes, and chills radiating from your body, these all suggest that you’ve hit something dirty,” Huang Xiaolong laughed.
“Huang Xiaolong, you’re amazing!” Chu Tingting admitted, amazed. “So, about tonight…can you come over and help me…with that…?”
Chu Tingting rented an apartment by herself, and the prospect of bringing a man back, despite him being her student and a few years younger, did make her feel a little embarrassed.
However, she was desperate to solve the problem.
Therefore, she tossed aside her concerns and hesitantly invited Huang Xiaolong over.
Huang Xiaolong readily agreed, “Sure, Beautiful Teacher, add me on WeChat, let’s stay in touch.”
“Oh…” Chu Tingting took out her phone and exchanged WeChat contacts with Huang Xiaolong.
At this point, the bell rang to start class.
Huang Xiaolong happened to be packing up his talismans, stuffing them into his canvas bag, “Beautiful Teacher, I’m about to go to class. Contact me anytime.”
“Okay.” Chu Tingting nodded.
Huang Xiaolong ran to the office door, then suddenly turned back. “Beautiful Teacher, do you think I have a good body?”
“Uh…” Chu Tingting blushed bright red, “Huang Xiaolong! You…you’re so improper!”
“Hahahaha… Goodbye, Teacher.” Huang Xiaolong darted out of the office.
“Phew…” Chu Tingting gave a sigh of relief, her mind unwittingly filled with images of Huang Xiaolong’s body. She muttered to herself, “Well, he does have a good figure.”
Just as the thought crossed her mind, she castigated herself, ‘Chu Tingting! Are you even human? He’s your student! How can you fantasize about his body! Yes, you saw it before, that’s a fact, but you have to forget it! Yes, forget it! Purge it from your mind!’
“I didn’t see anything, I didn’t see anything… okay, it’s deleted now,” Chu Tingting reassured herself as she settled back into her office chair.
