Lu Mian opened her eyes slowly when she heard the voice. Her expression was that of annoyance, with “what does your presence have to do with me” written all over her face as she looked at the man.
What a difficult lass.
Xiao Qimo took two steps forward quietly. “You want to go in?” He asked as he looked at the gazebo.
“It has nothing to do with you.”
Lu Mian knew that her investigation had to be put on pause, so she headed back towards the tenth grade building.
But she had a query, and thus she tilted her head.
“What is Mr. Xiao doing at our school?” asked Lu Mian.
Xiao Qimo smiled elegantly as he cuffed his sleeves. “Allow me to introduce myself. I’m your education headmaster, Qi Mo.”
“Education headmaster?” Lu Mian did not know what he meant by that, but she greeted him obediently anyway, “Greetings, Teacher Qi.”
“I’m not a teacher.”
“Greetings, Headmaster Qi.”
Xiao Qimo smiled contentedly. “In the future, I’m in charge of your discipline, you’ve gotta be obedient.”
Lu Mian was even more confused by his words. She eyed the man and paused when she saw his complex smile.
Crazy.
Lu Mian shook her head, not intending to fixate on the issue.
“Headmaster Qi, I’m heading back to class.”
“Good girl.” Xiao Qimo praised her as he walked closer to her. “I’m not familiar with Wu City, recommend me a place for lunch,” he asked humbly.
“Baidu it, Baidu’s more useful than I am.”
It was her usual, aggravating style.
“… I don’t think you want what happened with Sui Yuan to happen again. I wonder if your education headmaster can have the honour of you welcoming him?”
Lu Mian’s expression softened when she heard Sui Yuan’s name. It’s just a meal; I’ll do it!
“See you at the door after school!”
With that, she left casually as she kicked the pebbles on the road around.
Xiao Qimo eyed the slender silhouette as he took another look at the gazebo. His eyes darkened.
Returning to the classroom, Fatty and Skinny rushed over to check on her.
“Brother Mian, are you okay! You didn’t break into the gazebo, right?”
“Cough, of course Brother Mian didn’t go in. Otherwise, she won’t be here!”
Lu Mian waved dismissively, unwilling to talk more. It was at this point that Ding Cai, their homeroom teacher, walked in and made an emergency announcement.
The rowdy classroom quietened down.
“Our school has employed a new education headmaster that will focus on your discpline. I’ve turned a blind eye to your disorderliness so far, but he’s employed by the school. He will not be lenient on account of anyone. If he catches you, no one can save you,” Ding Cai said solemnly.
The students moaned in agony. They had a feeling that the strictest headmaster was about to appear.
All the talkative and spacey students looked towards the backdoor of the classroom, and the couples looked at their partners silently.
Before the new education headmaster had shown himself, the students already disliked him.
After Ding Cai had made his announcement, he turned the time back to the students.
As he walked away from the podium, his expression turned excited and gentle when he came to Lu Mian’s table.
“Lu Mian, all the best!”
He was referring to the physics competition.
Lu Mian smiled innocently at her teacher.
He would probably be really sad if he knew that she had no intentions of showing up at all…
Over at twelfth grade class one, they too were talking about the new education headmaster.
In the midst of the discussion, a boy shouted, “Young Master Su, you’ve made fifteen million dollars this time?!”
