Chapter 1010: Chapter 461: A Good Teacher Takes the Initiative (Part 2)

"Teacher Zhou, you should go and answer the phone first." Lin Li’s expression remained fierce, but his words were relatively gentle, though if you listened carefully, you could hear the grit in his voice.

Bai Bufan, this good-for-nothing, always making things worse!

byd, what were you thinking not muting your phone at school!!! Did you get carried away because the school allows phones?

But it’s not too late to fix this.

As long as Bai Bufan immediately decreases the phone’s volume until it’s muted, and pretends to make a call with the phone to his ear, everything can still be brushed off as mere coincidence!!

"Hurry up——"

Lin Li, frantic with thought, was desperately signaling with his eyes.

Unfortunately, the now sweaty Bai Bufan’s actions had completely fallen apart, and his thinking was nowhere near as sharp as Lin Li’s.

"Beep——"

To Bai Bufan’s relief, the call disconnected on its own.

It seems Xue Jian didn’t realize the truth——

"~I have a good buddy~ He’s like the disabled~ I super late not beep——"

Before Bai Bufan could finish his thoughts, the phone rang again, displaying the contact as "Old Jian".

The startling ringtone only played for a few seconds this time, not even finishing a few verses before the other side proactively hung up, leaving only the trailing ’beep’.

"~I have a good bro|beep——"

What a hat trick.

This third time, the call was practically disconnected the instant it was dialed.

"..."

"..."

No more calls came through.

But Bai Bufan’s hands trembled even more, and if his previous hunch was for disguise, now Bai Bufan genuinely couldn’t stand straight.

He once again looked pleadingly at Lin Li.

Damn, why is Lin Li acting like a corpse too.

"For God’s sake, just turn the volume down first..." Noticing Bai Bufan watching him, Lin Li merely muttered to himself despairingly and bitterly.

Bai Bufan: "!"

Footsteps sounded from behind.

...

Rewind to two minutes earlier.

When the busy tone in his ear and the ringtone of the teacher in front sounded simultaneously, Xue Jian didn’t initially find anything unusual.

But after a few seconds, having heard the specific lyrics of the teacher’s ringtone, Xue Jian froze.

Something’s not right.

As a teacher, setting such a ringtone is absolutely not allowed——because of the poor value orientation, although students might mostly find it amusing, officially it’s never permitted to affect the evaluation of teachers.

Didn’t you see the four students jump-frogging upstairs trying hard not to laugh?

But after all this was a personal matter, a bit much to escalate, Xue Jian could accept it.

Yet when he hung up because Bai Bufan didn’t answer, and then the ringtone stopped simultaneously, Xue Jian was dumbfounded. freewebnσvel.cøm

Is it possible to get this coincidental?

Xue Jian couldn’t resist raising his head to observe the two ’strangers’ in front.

Hiss——

Well, I kid you not.

Although both had beer bellies, their height and hair length seemed to match Lin Li and Bai Bufan’s features?

And their sock colors didn’t match the shoes!

So Xue Jian couldn’t resist dialing Bai Bufan’s phone again.

When the ringtone matched his timing once more, Xue Jian smiled reassuringly.

Haha.

Now the only hope for Bai Bufan and Lin Li’s survival is for the phone to be confiscated by this teacher.

Unfortunately, none of the frog-jumping four students included him.

The third call was purely motivated by the ringtone.

Indeed, there was a fourth call, but upon dialing, Xue Jian found Bai Bufan’s phone was switched to silent mode.

No matter, Xue Jian simply sneered, walking forward slowly.

...

Feeling the approaching footsteps from behind, even Lin Li was left with despair and numbness.

This is what we call teammate Bao Wei! Teammate Bao Wei!

Bai Bufan, you’ve really screwed me.

The footsteps ceased, judging by the direction, Xue Jian was now to his left.

Lin Li cautiously shifted his head a bit to the left.

Then, Lin Li witnessed an almost impossible-to-keep-straight scene.

——Only to see Xue Jian now leaning against the wall; the upper half of his back was pressed to the wall while keeping an incline, his right leg crossed over the left, arms folded, right index finger occasionally tapping his left forearm, head slightly tilted, watching with a smirk.

Then, Xue Jian saw an almost impossible-to-maintain scene.

——Only to see Lin Li silently withdraw his gaze, no longer meeting Xue Jian’s eyes, but with his right leg slowly raising behind, at an unnoticed moment by the four students on the stairs, he swiftly delivered a hard kick to Bai Bufan’s left knee pit.

"Um——"

Bai Bufan grunted in pain from Lin Li’s venting, nearly kneeling to the ground, but dared not express anger, stabilizing his stance before briefly meeting Xue Jian’s eyes, already considering whether to simply kneel down and beg for forgiveness.

"..."

After a brief silence, Lin Li spoke at this time, gently suggesting to Bai Bufan:

"Teacher Bai, wasn’t it Director Xue calling just now? Well, frankly, we do need a favor; hopefully, Director Xue can give us an opportunity, grant us a few more days to finish current teaching tasks first, otherwise it’s awkward, please beg him for that generosity, to be magnanimous and overlook our folly."

Xue Jian: "☉‿☉."

Understood——

Lin Li: Old Jian, I’m pleading, wait until we’ve finished penalizing these four students to expose us, otherwise we’re done for, torn apart, knock knock, kowtowing to you.

Honestly, if not for the inappropriate occasion, Xue Jian really wanted to laugh at this moment.

And upon hearing, Bai Bufan nodded with difficulty:

"Yes, Lin, but... but Teacher Lin, no need to worry, Director Xue is nice, besides we both have elderly parents, young children learning to speak, grandparents and aunts uncles cousins sons daughters, he surely won’t make it tough for us..."

Xue Jian restrained a smile.

These two rebels skillfully maneuvered the situation.

Then he picked up his phone, putting it to his ear, smilingly spoke into the blank screen: "Hello? Mm, got it, move quickly, alright, I’ll deal with you later, hanging up now."

Bai Bufan O.o?

Xue Jian is hanging up?

Really?

Is there a chance?

Bai Bufan looked expectantly at Xue Jian, only to find he wasn’t dead.

Finally, the four students on the stairs completed the frog-jumping task, looked cautiously but hopefully at Lin Li and Bai Bufan.

"Hmm," Lin Li nodded, handed the phone to them, then delivered his fixed line: "Go on, keep attending the evening event."

Remembering, phones are tools to be used at crucial times, don’t let entertainment spoil serious matters."

However, this time it was spoken with difficulty and obscurity.

"Thank you, Teacher, thank you, Teacher!" The four were naturally grateful.

"Also, having just hopped such a distance, remember to rest well upon returning...", noticing the meaningful gaze from beside, Lin Li’s reminder wasn’t complex, nodded, waved his hand in despair: "Go on."

"Okay, Teacher, goodbye! We’re leaving."

Bai Bufan: "Walk slowly."

Four: "Thanks, Teacher, we’ll take care of our safety."

Bai Bufan: Who the hell told you to mind your safety, told you to walk slow so Lin Li and I live a bit longer.

Yet, any length traveled will eventually end.

As their footsteps faded, all traces of the four students vanished at the stairwell.

Leaving behind Teacher Lin, Teacher Bai, and Director Xue.

Lin Li and Bai Bufan’s gaze remained downward, avoiding eye contact with Xue Jian.

When Director Xue was smilingly preparing to speak——

Teacher Lin first crouched down, hands behind his back, assuming a standard frog-jump posture, proactively starting frog-jump ascent.

And Teacher Bai, watching the scene, first hesitated, but then with a resigned face quickly followed suit.

"Step, step——"

In the silent stairwell, frog-jumping sounds reemerged, along with the rustling of clothing.

However, this time, there were fewer jumpers.

And only one audience——

Xue Jian: "(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧!"
