Chapter 102 Good Woman, Bad Woman (Vote Requested!)
"What did you say?!"

Zhou Xian simply couldn't believe that this man, who looked completely ordinary, less young and less handsome than him, and whose clothes weren't as expensive as his, dared to tell him to get lost!
Even my own parents rarely say such harsh words to me!

Especially with so many people watching, his embarrassment at this moment can be imagined.

It was like a fuse that would escalate the situation, as if it were igniting all the flames in his chest.

Meanwhile, the onlookers seemed to realize something was amiss, and they fell silent, afraid to utter a sound. The atmosphere seemed to freeze over because of the sudden confrontation between the two.

Gu Huai indeed lacked experience in dealing with this kind of thing, and given his personality, he would never have said something like "get lost" to someone. But who told the young man to be so reckless and start the insult?

So everything became instinctive; what to do and what should be done became very clear in his mind.

Like bullet time in The Matrix, time seems to pass far slower than one's current thoughts.

So before Zhou Xian clenched his fists, as if he was about to escalate the situation to the point where the issue of male dignity had to be resolved by force.

He didn't even notice that Lin Jiang, whose hand he was holding, was about to stand in front of him.

But he spoke first.

"First of all, I am her boyfriend."

"Secondly, if you want her to be expelled from school because of your behavior, then take action."

The two short sentences directly overloaded Zhou Xian's CPU.

"W-what did you say? A boyfriend later? What boyfriend? Teacher Lin doesn't have one."

"Yes, he is my boyfriend. I am a teacher, and I have no need to tell my students about my private life."

Zhou Xian turned his head in surprise and looked at Lin Jiang, whose expression was very calm.

He couldn't believe those words came from her mouth; it was practically a death sentence.

Because it came from her mouth, no other evidence was needed to prove it; there was no more convincing proof than this.

The words he wanted to argue, the questions he wanted to ask, suddenly stuck in his throat, withered and dry.

The crowd began to murmur, seemingly brewing another exciting event, and what they saw as dramatic.

But Gu Huai has no intention of giving these people a chance.

He stared at Zhou Xian and said, "I've made myself very clear. You've caused such a commotion here, confessing your feelings to your teacher. You haven't even considered what kind of situation she'll be in if the school finds out. Do you think this is romantic?"

"You spent a lot of money and prepared a car full of flowers, fresh and vibrant, which would seem to make any girl fall for them. But you didn't consider that if the school found out, they would only see it as an event that severely damages the school's image and then expel her. The things she likes and the career she wants to pursue will be ruined because of your self-indulgent romance, which you brought along so many people to create the atmosphere."

Is this what you like? Or is it just your self-pity?

"Even without me here, she wouldn't accept you. If you understand, then get out of the way."

That's how the whole thing was said.

It went very smoothly, without the slightest hindrance. Even Gu Huai found it unbelievable, but he didn't reflect on why this had happened.

He simply watched as Zhou Xian's face gradually paled, his clenched fist slowly loosening.

His lips were open, yet he seemed unable to utter a single word; the flowers in his hands, though still at their most vibrant, appeared to be on the verge of withering.

Gu Huai reached out and easily pushed Zhou Xian away, seemingly no longer holding on.

Then she watched helplessly as this man who had suddenly appeared led the woman in the white dress, whom she revered as a goddess, away from the crowd.

"excuse me."

Gu Huai pushed through the layers of people, took Lin Jiang's hand, and left the densest crowd as quickly as possible.

He felt that this was the most important thing right now, and the best way to minimize the impact of the situation.

Completely unaware that Lin Jiang, whom he was leading, was already panting, the pace actually being a bit too fast for her. But she didn't utter a single complaint.

Instead, their gazes remained fixed on the young man. They hesitated to speak.

It seems that without realizing it, he did everything that girls and women alike dream of.

Help yourself stand up to your parents and become one of the few rays of sunshine in your dark and gloomy world.

Then, at such a moment, they appear, take your hand, and lead you through the crowd, away from the throng, like a grand elopement.

It doesn't seem to matter if I'm a little tired, as long as I can keep up with his pace.

I'm more used to it this way, I can keep looking at him, watching him in front of me.

Would you call this a man risking his life for you? The sweat on his forehead was almost dripping into his eyes; he was still somewhat strained.
"Phew, no one should be watching anymore."

We had already crossed the entire long street and made a rather cautious turn.

Gu Huai stopped. He didn't realize that his enhanced physique was now completely different from before, so much so that he didn't expect how much energy it would consume to walk such a long distance at such a speed, almost jogging the whole way.

When he turned around to look at Lin Jiang, she had already bent over slightly, supporting herself on her knee with one hand, breathing heavily.

"Are you OK?"

Gu Huai was about to squat down when he realized he was still holding the other person's hand.

At this moment, their hands were sticky and tightly clasped together, and it was impossible to tell whose sweat it was.

He instinctively wanted to let go and check on the other person's condition.

But to his surprise, the moment he let go, Lin Jiang gripped his hand tightly.

"you"

Gu Huai looked at her in surprise, and Lin Jiang slowly raised her head.

Her beautiful face was flushed, clearly indicating that the exercise was somewhat strenuous for her.

She was still panting, and even trying to make a gesture with her eyes was difficult.

But he wouldn't let go. After a while, he straightened up and reached out to touch his chest.

Gu Huai saw it all clearly.

The violent breathing resulted in the chest heaving violently.

He swore he wasn't that kind of person, but she wouldn't say a word and wouldn't let go, so where could he see?
Now I truly understand what it means to be magnificent, what it means to be wave after wave, and what it means to rise and fall.

I never felt this way when I saw girls lining up during military training.
They watched as Lin Jiang gradually calmed the rise and fall of her chest and her complexion returned to normal. Although she was still sweating, it seemed that neither of them cared about it now.

She looked at Gu Huai and said softly.

"First of all, I'm fine. It's probably because I don't exercise often, but it doesn't have any impact, so don't worry."

"That"

"Secondly."

First? Second? Why are you mimicking human speech again?
Gu Huai was puzzled when he suddenly felt his hand being pulled.

Then she saw her hands being led by the other person and brought to her face, which she then held in both hands.

Those warm, even slightly hot, hands completely enveloped my palms.

Her eyes held a sincerity and earnestness I had never seen before.

"Secondly, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry to have asked you to come and help me out of this predicament. I'm not trying to take advantage of you, nor am I using this opportunity to satisfy my vanity. Whatever you think, please don't hate me because of this, don't think I'm a bad woman, or never talk to me again. Okay?"
