Hao Ren took a bus to the gate of LingZhao Middle School at seven o’clock. He bought two sets of youtiao and a bottle of soy milk. Then, he had his breakfast as he watched the middle-schoolers go to school.
In Hao Ren’s memory, middle-schoolers were supposed to go to the school at about 7 AM, have the morning excises at 8 AM, and do the morning reading before the first class at 8:30 AM.
In fact, students in middle school were quite busy with four periods in the morning and four in the afternoon, going until 5:00 PM.
If the teachers gave them last minute class assignments or the students had cleaning duties, they would get home very late.
It was only a little past seven, and some hard-working girls had begun entering the school. Of course, there were a few boys who were also early, but Hao Ren suspected that they didn’t do their homework and thus arrived early to ‘borrow’ others’ to copy.
It was almost summer now, and the schoolgirls were all wearing skirts. It was a pretty picture of youth.
Hao Ren finished eating his youtiao and suddenly realized that he must look like a perverted man standing at the school gate while watching the school girls. Shortly, the school’s greeting team arrived and stood at the entrance.
Each class took turns sending students to form the so-called greeting team. They stood at the school gate and greeted all the teachers by saying ‘good morning, teacher!’ in the morning.
When Hao Ren was in middle school, since he looked a little above average, he took turns being on the etiquette team for about two years. Thinking back, he found that experience entirely meaningless.
He was about to look away when he suddenly spotted a familiar figure in the greeting team.
It was Zhao Yanzi!
Along both sides of the wide-open iron gate stood four girls, four boys, and a student who led the team.
Zhao Yanzi stood reluctantly second in line among the four girls. The girl standing at the front of the line was her best friend, Little Ling.
It seemed like this week was Zhao Yanzi’s class’s turn to form a greeting team, and Zhao Yanzi was one of the selected students. As a member of the team, she had to get up early each morning of the week, arrive at school before 7 AM, and stand at the school gate wearing a red sash at 7 AM sharp.
They were fortunate that it was now early summer. It was torture being a part of the greeting team in the winter.
Hao Ren stood about five meters away from the gate and stared at Zhao Yanzi in a daze.
Zhao Yanzi had taken her position when she spotted Hao Ren.
She froze out of embarrassment for a few seconds, but she had nowhere to hide.
At this moment, a young teacher came to the gate. The team leader saluted, and Zhao Yanzi had no choice but to yell and bow with other team members, “Good morning! teacher!”
Hao Ren watched her silly look and snickered.
Zhao Yanzi glared at him with her big eyes and gritted her teeth, wishing that she could rush out and kick him away.
However, her duty prohibited her from moving.
Another young female teacher entered the school, and Zhao Yanzi hesitated for half a second before bowing hurriedly. “Good morning, teacher!”
“Zhao Yanzi, move together with the others.” A teacher was supervising the greeting team, and she reminded Zhao Yanzi when the latter’s movement was half a second slower than the others.
Zhao Yanzi curled her lips but couldn’t argue with the teacher.
However, that damned ‘uncle’ was still standing near the breakfast booth, staring at her like a ghost.
If Zhao Yanzi could send electricity with her eyes, Hao Ren would have been long dead from the shocks.
Now it was about 7:30 AM, and the bulk of teachers and students swarmed into the school. Most of LingZhao Middle School’s teachers lived in the neighborhood across from the school since the school provided residency, and they came to the school almost at the same time, making the greeting team salute and bow non-stop.
Hao Ren now walked to the bus stop close by, pretending to be waiting for a bus while he was, in fact, watching Zhao Yanzi.
Zhao Yanzi saw Hao Ren just stand there and watch her humiliate herself by bowing repeatedly, but she couldn’t find a way to drive him away.
“Ok! Let’s go back to class!” The team leader said to the greeting team.
It was almost 8 AM, and all the students had arrived except for the late-comers.
Zhao Yanzi was relieved at the order and immediately took off the sash.
In fact, the only benefit of being a member of the greeting team was that they could skip the morning exercise and rest in the classroom.
While the other team members walked into the school, Zhao Yanzi put her red sash into Little Ling’s hand before rushing out of the gate in rage and punching Hao Ren’s chest.
“What are you doing?” Hao Ren rubbed his chest and looked at her, faking his innocence.
Tempered by the heaven lightning, his body was as hard as iron, and Zhao Yanzi’s punches didn’t hurt him at all. Zhao Yanzi was lucky that her hands were not injured from punching his body.
“You… Why did you stand here and watch me?!” Zhao Yanzi was so furious that she almost choked when speaking.
When she stood at the gate wearing the sash, she wanted to rush over and kick him. Now that her task was done, her anger seemed to have toned down a little.
“You will be in the greeting team for the week, right? How about I come and watch you every day?” Hao Ren asked her with a snicker.
“Don’t you dare!” Zhao Yanzi’s eyes opened wide.
“Ok! Ok! Let’s get serious since the morning exercise will be over soon. I just came to see you,” Hao Ren said immediately, afraid that she would lose her temper.
“Who cares…” Hearing Hao Ren’s words, Zhao Yanzi’s heart softened, and her tone was no longer stern.
“I also came to ask you something,” Hao Ren continued.
“What is it?” Zhao Yanzi lifted her head and blinked.
Her beautiful hair fluttered in the morning breeze.
“It’s just… Should I go to your home tonight?” Hao Ren asked her.
“Why not?” Zhao Yanzi pouted. “Come!”
“Last night, it didn’t go very well…”
“That’s their problem, not mine! You are my tutor, not theirs!” Zhao Yanzi panted with anger and said.
“Ok. I’ll come over tonight.” Hao Ren remembered that Zhao Yanzi’s final exams were coming up, and she needed the tutoring.
The problem was that he also needed time to accelerate his breakthrough since he had to go the general examinations at the Dragon God Shrine in one month.
At this moment, the bell that signaled the end of the morning exercise sounded, and the old gatekeeper was about to lock the gate. Zhao Yanzi glanced at Hao Ren and said. “Ok! I must go now! Come and meet me at the school this afternoon!”
She jogged to the gate, oblivious to the fact that the old gatekeeper was a master her father stationed in the school.
Hao Ren looked at her with a smile before walking toward LingZhao Elementary School that was not far from there.
The elementary school began a bit later than the middle school. Hao Ren didn’t remember when he went to school each morning when he was in elementary school, but he knew that the elementary school students didn’t have to go to school as early.
Across the street, LingZhao Elementary School was experiencing a rush hour due to student traffic. Some traffic officers were there to keep order.
Hao Ren stood beside the gate, wondering if Zhen Congming had gone into the school or not.
Swoosh. A familiar white Ford arrived at the school gate, and Hao Ren took a closer look and realized that it was his dad’s car.
In his elementary school uniform, Zhen Congming got out of the car carrying a blue backpack on his shoulders.
He had a new haircut and a new pair of shoes.
Hao Ren was about to go over when several elementary school girls ran to Zhen Congming from different directions.
“Congming!”
“Congming!”
“Congming!”
Instantly, Zhen Congming was surrounded by three pretty girls who were all wearing school uniforms and were cute in their own ways.
“Hey! Don’t bother me.” Zhen Congming squirmed impatiently and pushed them away.
Zhen Congming walked into the school without saying goodbye to Hao Zhonghua who drove him here.
Those three cute little girls followed him closely.
“Congming, please teach me how to solve the problem we had yesterday!”
“Congming, I want to play a game with you today.”
“Congming, I brought you the sweet rice balls my mom made…”
Ignoring them, Zhen Congming walked into the academic building proudly.
The three girls followed him inside, still calling out to him.
“Damn!”
“Zhen Congming had only been in school for a few days, and so many cute girls have fallen for him!”
Hao Ren lamented the unfairness of the world!
It seemed like he didn’t have to worry about Zhen Congming’s life in the elementary school. Obviously, he was very comfortable here!
He had good looks, high IQ, good background, and great talent. Except for his quick temper, Zhen Congming had no shortcomings!
It was understandable that the girls liked him. At first glance, Zhen Congming might look dull. But on second look, he was quite handsome. Besides, his presence as a Li-level cultivator was attractive to the girls.
Hao Zhonghua dropped off Zhen Congming at the school and didn’t notice Hao Ren in the crowd at the gate. He turned the car slowly and drove to the Ocean Research Institute.
Hao Ren sighed and saw that the white Ford made the turn and left.
After a moment of consideration, he returned to the bus stop and took a bus back to school.
It was a miracle that Zhen Congming agreed to go to school obediently. However, surrounded by a group of cute girls, it wasn’t easy for him to make trouble, right?
Tonight, Hao Ren had to go to Zhao Yanzi’s home to tutor her, and he must take some time during the day to consider how to improve his cultivation strength…
