Jian Dan sat on the bed in the infirmary, while the infirmary teacher dabbed alcohol on the cotton to treat Jian Danâs wound.
Anyone who has experienced it knows that alcohol on a wound is quite painful, but Jian Dan didnât show it and only slightly furrowed her brow.
If the person beside her today had been Uncle, maybe Jian Dan would have acted a little spoiled, but it wasnât him.
Zhang Yang watched Jian Dan enduring the pain, and the feeling in his heart was really uncomfortable.
Even though he had been suppressing his feelings for Jian Dan, after todayâs events, he could no longer deceive himself, he seemed to have truly fallen for this girl.
In any school, especially in high school, teacher-student relationships are taboo, and almost no such relationships come to a good end.
But he really couldnât control his heart, so he finally understood, even if there might be no future for them, while Jian Dan was still at this school, he would protect this girl to the best of his ability.
âTeacher, why do you look more distressed than me? If people didnât know better, they might think you were the one who got hurt,â Jian Dan joked, looking at Zhang Yang.
âIf it hurts, just yell out, donât hold it in!â
âItâs fine, it was just very painful at the beginning, now it doesnât hurt as much!â
After treating the wound, Jian Dan got ready to return to the classroom, saw that Zhang Yang was still following her, âTeacher, Iâm fine now, you can go back to the office! I can go back to the classroom by myself.â
Zhang Yang looked at Jian Dan, and though he really wanted to take her back to the classroom and was very worried, he didnât want Jian Dan to see his feelings for her, so he could only acknowledge with a word and watched her leave.
Not until Jian Danâs figure had disappeared did he reluctantly return to the office.
Sitting in the office chair, Zhang Yangâs brows were tightly knitted and showed no signs of relaxing because, having worked here for so many years, he was well aware of what people like Teacher Wang and Director Liu were like; he knew that they would definitely not let Jian Dan and the others off easily.
Zhang Yang was now completely preoccupied with worrying about Jian Dan, completely forgetting that he had just offended them as well, and they surely wouldnât forget him when looking for trouble.
âTeacher Zhang, what are you daydreaming about?â Teacher Wu asked, having entered the office at some unknown time.
âOh! Itâs nothing.â
âRight, itâs Teacher Jiangâs birthday tonight, and weâre all going to celebrate for her; you should come too!â Teacher Wu suggested.
She and Zhang Yang had worked together for a long time now, and she believed she had made her feelings clear enough, but Zhang Yang, this blockhead, just wouldnât get it, and she didnât want to wait any longer.
So she decided to get drunk tonight and have Zhang Yang take her home, using the opportunity to capture him!
âTonight? I mightâ¦.â
âYouâre not going to say you donât have the time, are you? If thatâs the case, Teacher Jiang will probably be very sad.â Having worked with Zhang Yang for so long, she knew him fairly well.
He was the ultimate nice guy who liked to help others, and as long as something was within his power, he would try his hardest to make everyone happy.
After hearing Teacher Wu say this, Zhang Yang indeed replied, âAlright! Iâll go.â
âMm! Teacher Jiang will definitely be happy!â Teacher Wu looked at Zhang Yang with a sweet smile.
That nightâ¦
âTeacher Zhang, their car is full; can I ride with you?â Teacher Wu tapped on Zhang Yangâs car window and asked with a smile.
âSure, come on in!â Zhang Yang opened the car door and let Teacher Wu climb in.
âThankyou, Teacher Zhang!â Teacher Wu said with an exceedingly gentle tone. âItâs nothing!â he said, starting the carâ¦.
Just as they were about to leave, he saw Jian Dan and her two friends just walking out of the school gate.
For a moment, he was somewhat spellboundâ¦.
âTeacher Zhang, letâs go~â Teacher Wu patted Zhang Yangâs shoulder, and only then did he snap back to reality and the car slowly moved awayâ¦.
âTeacher Zhang, what were you looking at just now? You seemed so lost in thought?â
âDid I? No, not really!â Zhang Yang awkwardly dodged the question.
Teacher Wu realized that Zhang Yang was deliberately avoiding her question, but she did not continue to pry, as no man liked a woman who endlessly questioned him.
Jian Dan and her two friends decided to go out for dinner and karaoke to celebrate the establishment of their âiron triangleâ friendship.
High school students indulging like this on the eve of college entrance exams, besides these three, who else could there be!
