Chapter 278: Chapter 203: Qiushui Lingers, the Beautiful Qin Sang

"Of course! Even the seniors at other high schools got the day off... Look over there, those stalls and everything, they were set up since yesterday. Students from all the schools are preparing for the event and exhibiting at our school. Just our school and a few others have seniors that must still attend class... Eh..."

Tong Xiangling stood in the corridor, looking at the bustling marketplace in the large playground, her eyes filled with immense envy.

Sui Yi, however, didn’t seem very interested. After a glance, she walked away, and Tong Xiangling had no choice but to follow.

But what she didn’t know was that at this moment, at the edge of the playground downstairs, two people were staring intently at them...

"Is that her?! How could she possibly be here..."

"What’s wrong, cousin?"

"I just saw Sui Yi."

"That can’t be right!"

Han Yuanchong was highly skeptical, but Li Run frowned and after a moment withdrew his gaze, saying, "Maybe I saw wrong. I guess that woman doesn’t have what it takes to get into Yunfeng."

All he saw was a glimpse of a head, a quick glance that had disappeared in the blink of an eye—there hadn’t been time for a closer look.

"After all, she is just a nobody from Nanxun. In Provincial City, she is nowhere close to being as impressive as you, cousin! Even if she did come, what is there to fear? On the contrary, it would be easy for us to take our revenge!" Han Yuanchong’s words made Li Run smile.

Indeed, Provincial City was his stronghold; while Sui Yi might be a big fish in Nanxun, in Provincial City, she had no say.

"In that case, I hope she does come to Provincial City, heh heh... Let’s go, have some fun. I’ll introduce you to a few guys who can call the wind and summon the rain here... You can’t let me down!"

The two of them walked away, getting farther and farther.

It wasn’t long before Sui Yi and her companion returned to the door of their class. Class had started, and as they arrived at the doorway, they saw the neat rows of Grade 12 Class 10 students seated together.

Dozens of pairs of eyes turned to look their way. Tong Xiangling jumped in, all smiles, about to give Sui Yi a grand entrance...

But suddenly Du Ke stood up, calling out in a clear, strong voice, "Good morning, Teacher~~"

In unison, a large group of students stood up.

"Good morning, Teacher~~"

Tong Xiangling’s eyes widened, "Umm~~ you guys~~"

What was Sui Yi’s reaction at the doorway?

She smelled a faint fragrance, elegant and tranquil.

Her eyes flashed as she turned her body slightly to look at the person behind her.

A woman about the same height as Sui Yi, very young, no more than 25 years old, wearing light blue floral denim jeans, tall and slender. She was dressed in a simple and elegant low-heeled shoe, cream-white V-neck sweater, warm yellow cotton jacket, and with a beautiful and warm wool scarf around her neck, her pale white hands as delicate as cream pastry pressing teaching materials against her chest.

"You must be the new student, right? I’m your Chinese language teacher, Qin Sang. You can call me Teacher Qin. As it happens, I, too, have just returned from my leave.

The other person smiled too warmly, with curving brows and crescent moon-like eyes, and her voice seemed to flow out from a mountain spring, tinkling over the crisp, clean stones, pure and clear.

Sui Yi curved her lips, "Hello, Teacher Qin, I’m Sui Yi."

Thus, the freshly returned Teacher Qin met her future most troublesome student, who, despite this being their first encounter, gave her a smile that left her a little dazed.

And so, she was trapped.

The lesson didn’t change due to Sui Yi’s arrival; those who needed to attend class did so. Teacher Qin was very popular, and the whole class was orderly and lively when it should have been. Sui Yi noted that Teacher Qin’s class covered three times more content than the Chinese language teachers in Nanxun did, but she was highly efficient, as could be seen from the reactions of students like Yang Yue.

It was later that Sui Yi found out Teacher Qin was a top-tier teacher specially invited from Capital City by Yunfeng, with an exceptionally impressive resume in education. If it weren’t for her young age, she would have been promoted to a special-grade teacher already...

The distinctive feature of Class 10 in the senior year was that their Chinese language course was co-taught by Teacher Qin with senior Class 1.

Chinese was the subject Sui Yi was most interested in, but typically the teachers weren’t much more skilled than she was, and it was all focused on test preparation, so naturally, she hadn’t paid much attention. But now, it was different.

A lesson on Tang Dynasty culture held her in rare full concentration, except for the occasional times she turned her head and saw, on the other side of the classroom, at the very back, a very tall boy looking over indifferently, as if with casual disinterest, while fiddling with an airplane model in his hands.

After class, Teacher Qin specifically called for Sui Yi.
