Zhang Yang saw Chu Liyuan eating the tofu from Jian Danâs plate, piece by piece, and his brows deeply furrowed.
As a man, he was very clear that if one had no feelings for a girl, he would absolutely not eat from her plate.
Unless the two were friends, but he couldnât believe that a teacher, who had only arrived a day ago, could become such friends with a student.
If it were in the past, he wouldnât have thought in that direction, but now that the actual situation had happened to himself, he had to believe that this new teacher had developed those kinds of feelings for Jian Dan.
âJian Dan, may I try some too?â Zhang Yang asked, unwilling to be outdone.
Even if the other party also liked Jian Dan, after all, he had known Jian Dan earlier, so he believed he should have a bigger chance.
âHuh?â Jian Dan was obviously a bit stunned.
When Uncle had spoken to her just now, she hadnât felt there was anything wrong, but now that Zhang Yang had spoken up, she realized there was a big problem.
Jian Dan looked at Chu Liyuan next to her with some embarrassment.
If she refused Zhang Yang, it would immediately reveal that her relationship with Uncle was out of the ordinary, but if she agreed, it would feel very awkward, and besides, Uncle probably wouldnât agree, would he?
Just as Jian Dan was in a dilemmaâ¦
Chu Liyuan stood up, went to the cutlery area, grabbed a new pair of chopsticks, and used them to place a piece of tofu onto Zhang Yangâs plate.
âThankyou, Teacher Zhu!â Zhang Yang looked at the tofu on his plate and said without giving anything away.
âNot at all!â
As things had progressed to this point, even Xiaoting, who usually had very low emotional intelligence, noticed the issue.
Both teachers seemed to have feelings for Jian Dan that went beyond the normal teacher-student relationship.
But Xiaoting didnât show it.
The whole meal⦠somehow lost its flavor!
âTeacher Zhu, Teacher Zhang, weâll head back to the classroom first!â After bidding farewell to the teachers, Jian Dan and Xiaoting walked towards the classroomâ¦
Ouyang Jing followed behind the twoâ¦
âTeacher Zhang, shall we head back to the office together?â Chu Liyuan asked coldly.
âSure!â
By the way, I heard that Teacher Zhu is married?â Zhang Yang started the conversation on the way.
The corners of Chu Liyuanâs mouth lifted slightly. âYes, I am!â
âFrom Teacher Zhuâs demeanor, you must really love your wife?â
âAbsolutely!â
âTeacher Zhu is so happy, Iâm really envious. I havenât even got a girlfriend yet. I donât know when Iâll be able to get married!â
Since heâs already married, then his chances are even greater.
âYou donât have to be envious of me, Teacher Zhang. Youâll meet your person too!â
âThen Iâll take Teacher Zhuâs good wishes!â
âYouâre welcome- But I do have something to remind you of.â
âWhat?â
âDonât covet what isnât yours.â
Not mine?
Even if it isnât mine, itâs not yours either!
Zhang Yang laughed, but didnât speak!
As soon as Jian Dan and Xiaoting got back to the classroom, Xiaoting turned around secretively and gestured for Jian Dan to come closer. âWhatâs with the mystery?â Jian Dan leaned in.
âJian, havenât you noticed?â
âNoticed what?â
âObviously, the new Teacher Zhu seems to be a bit unusual towards you!â Xiaoting whispered, afraid someone else would hear.
Upon hearing this, Jian Dan involuntarily rolled her eyes inwardly.
Heâs my husband, itâd be strange if it was normal, wouldnât it?
And Uncle has already been very restrained in his behavior.
âReally? I didnât notice!â Jian Dan deliberately played dumb.
âItâs quite obvious, okay?â
Wasnât Xiaotingâs emotional intelligence always quite low? How did she suddenly catch on?
âNot really! I didnât feel that way at all!â Jian Dan actually felt a bit uneasy inside, but she had to keep a brave face.
Xiaoting looked at Jian Dan and pouted skeptically.
