Chapter 256: Chapter 256
The snow on the playground had been swept away by the students. During class time, only a few classes were having gym classes, and when they saw the young girl, they stopped and greeted her.
Rong Zhi nodded in response.
She made her way toward the guidance office.
As she approached the corner, she suddenly heard a clear female voice tinged with shyness ask, "Hello, are you the new teacher at the school?"
Rong Zhi paused her steps.
It was obvious that a conversation was happening on the other side of the wall.
She lowered her eyes slightly, not intending to interrupt.
Just as she was about to take a detour, another deep, rich voice sounded, carrying a hint of playful indifference.
"No, if you have nothing else, please carry on."
A rather heartless rejection.
After speaking, the person walked out from the corner, briefly stunned upon meeting her pitch-black, profound eyes, then chuckled lightly. "I was just about to look for you."
Rong Zhi didn’t speak, her gaze following the man’s eyebrows downwards.
He wore a dark blue turtleneck sweater, black casual trousers, with a black trench coat over it. His figure was tall, and his face was so handsome, with those finely carved beautiful eyes shimmering with gentle affection.
He was quite attractive.
Rong Zhi, expressionless, looked past him at the female student behind him.
She was wearing a uniform from No. 1 Middle School, her face young and unfamiliar, probably a freshman or sophomore.
The female student was also startled at the sight of her.
Rong Zhi responded with a hum.
The female student immediately became nervous, clutching her pants leg, her gaze darting between her and the tall man beside her, suddenly remembering something that made her face turn ashen.
Did she inadvertently flirt with Senior Rong’s boyfriend?
"I’m sorry!" The female student immediately bowed ninety degrees, her voice, filled with fear, taking on a crying tone, "I didn’t know this gentleman was your boyfriend. I’m really, really sorry!"
If she had known that the handsome guy she mistook for a new teacher was Rong Zhi’s boyfriend, she wouldn’t have dared to flirt with him even with a hundred tongues of bravery.
Bai Su leisurely raised his eyebrows, sizing up the young boy’s reaction.
Rong Zhi, with little emotion, simply said, "It’s okay," then told the female student to go back to class.
The female student was also quite befuddled. She thought Rong Zhi would be angry, but from start to finish, Rong Zhi’s expression didn’t change, passing it off lightly with an "It’s okay."
But having a chance to get away and not taking it would be foolish. The female student bent again, then turned and ran off quickly.
Rong Zhi slowly withdrew her gaze and took the lead in moving, "Have you finished filling out the documents? There’s still something to do on the company side, let’s go."
After taking a few steps and not hearing any movement behind her, she tilted her head slightly, her eyebrows raised faintly, "What’s wrong?"
Bai Su tightly pressed his lips together, the dark pupils reflecting the young boy’s aloof silhouette, suppressing the turmoil in his heart, "Zai Zai."
"Why aren’t you jealous?" Get full chapters from novel✦fire.net
Bai Su seemed very troubled by this question, leaning in to gaze into her enchanting eyes, extending his long fair fingers to cup her face.
Rong Zhi’s expression remained unchanged.
The pads of his fingers lingered on her warm lips, Bai Su petting them intimately yet teasingly, remaining within bounds but sounding pitiful and aggrieved, "I want to see Zai Zai get jealous."
He wanted to see her get jealous.
He wanted to see her fall for him.
He wanted to occupy a place in her eyes.
Bai Su was about to go crazy from it.
Rong Zhi slightly parted her lips, her gaze pausing momentarily on his eyes filled with hidden emotion, her voice gentle, "No."
Bai Su’s heart ached with sourness, he pursed his lips, "What?"
She often spoke sweet words.
But those were mostly to amuse the girls who came to flirt with her, everyone aware it was just for fun; taking it seriously meant losing.
So after saying this, Rong Zhi lifted her chin, pulling her face from his hands, then yanked his wrist and dragged him away.
Bai Su’s eyes subtly shifted.
The sourness in his heart entirely emptied, suddenly filled with sweetness overflowing like sugar.
No one noticed the commotion in the guidance office, Rong Zhi chatted briefly with Yao Xiaoshan in the office and then left. From the school to getting in the car, this man’s lips hadn’t stopped smiling once.
"You’ve made your point."
Rong Zhi’s temple twitched, feeling a headache.
Bai Su’s mood was so good that his eyes curved, "No way, it’s the first time Zai Zai got jealous over me, I have to remember it."
How does a person with normal intelligence suddenly act dumb?
Rong Zhi couldn’t be bothered to deal with him, focusing on driving, her peripheral vision catching a glimpse of someone, with no emotion in her eyes.
Beside the pharmacy, Lin Xingteng, now wearing casual clothes, eyed the SUV driving past, a gleam flashing in his gentle eyes behind the glasses, before vanishing.
Someone lightly patted his shoulder, and he turned his head, smiling, "Finished shopping?"
The person asked was tall and robust.
In a camouflage outfit, he had an air of ruggedness, nodding and asking with raised eyebrows, "What did you just see?"
Lin Xingteng put one hand in his pocket as he walked to the car, "Saw the test subject I mentioned to Mr. Xu previously."
Tang Yu’s tone shifted slightly, "The one I saw outside your office last time?"
Tang Yu clicked his tongue lightly, "Quite good looking, no wonder you have your eye on her, but you’ll have to wait for the experiment to fail if you want her skin, although Mr. Xu doesn’t want to see that happen."
Don’t let Lin Xingteng’s gentle, jade-like appearance fool you; his heart is as black as night.
He fully understands this psychiatric doctor’s love for beauties, of course, his love for their skins.
Whenever he finds one to his liking, Lin Xingteng tries every means to peel off their skin and preserve it as a specimen.
Over the years, he’s barely cured any patients but has ended quite a few.
Who knows how he continues on.
Listening to this, Lin Xingteng pushed up his glasses with a hooked finger, smiling silently.
Gao Xiaoguang and Liu Fang had never set foot in such a grand villa before, with artificial hills and flowing water, front yards and back pavilions, luxurious yet elegant. Every step inside was cautiously taken, fearing to damage the valuable-looking flowers and plants nearby.
And the handsome man they had met before was chatting with their son, patiently helping him tidy up his luggage.
"Remember what I said, if you miss me, call your brother." Jiang Gujun carefully folded the clothes the child often wore and placed them in the suitcase, feeling quite reluctant.
The child had spent the most time with him, and the school almost viewed him as another guardian to Rong Jiazze. After spending so much time together, it was only natural to feel reluctant.
Rong Jiazze nodded gloomily, packing the items Rong Zhi had prepared for him into his backpack.
Before leaving, Liu Fang was still eyeing the villa intently, only coming back to her senses when Gao Xiaoguang pinched her.
"Aren’t you waiting for Mr. Rong?" Jiang Gujun asked.
Rong Jiazze tightened his grip on the backpack strap, looking into Jiang Gujun’s puzzled eyes, sensibly explaining, "Brother has already said goodbye to me. She said she’s afraid I’d regret, so she won’t see me off."
Rong Zhi, worrying he might change his mind and run away, simply said her farewells early.
Jiang Gujun sighed internally, raising his hand in farewell with a smile, "Okay, bye, Jiazze."
Rong Jiazze felt his nose tingle, quickly tilting his head back to hold it in, suppressing the sob in his voice, "Bye, Brother Gu Jun."
Song Yue picked him up, greeting Gao Xiaoguang and Liu Fang as well.
The couple took one last look at the villa before reluctantly getting in the car.
