Supremely Talented Tyrant

Chapter 2039 - 2240: How About We Go Eat Together???

If this responsibility is to be blamed on them, wouldn't that be just like the middle-aged homeroom teacher who stormed off earlier? So, Li Weiwei just smiled and said, "It's not your fault. When I discovered something like this, I should have informed you right away instead of rushing here alone. This is also my fault for being too hasty."The security guards, initially thinking Li Weiwei might scold them for being late or ask what they were doing earlier, were surprised. Instead of blaming them, Li Weiwei took the responsibility upon herself, which immediately changed their opinion of her.

It was often said that the new teacher Li Weiwei was not only highly educated from a prestigious university but also very humble and without arrogance. Her reputation at the school was quite good, and seeing her today confirmed the rumors.

One of the more talkative security guards stood up, glanced at the girls, then at Li Weiwei, and said, "Teacher Li, you shouldn't say that. I saw it all myself. You rushed over immediately when you knew the students were in trouble, not even bringing anyone along, thinking of the students above all else despite the danger. You're truly a good teacher!"

"Also, look at that guy Li Zhengyi, who seemingly has an upright demeanor but didn't dare to come when he knew his students were in conflict with outsiders. He only called for us after a while, bringing a large group with him, showing he's just putting on a front and not actually considering the students, caring only for his own safety. We saw it all ourselves." After a pause, he continued.

With these words, the other security guards who were watching the whole time nodded in agreement, seeing that Li Zhengyi had already left.

"Yes, we all know what kind of person that old Li Zhengyi is. Teacher Li, don't put this on yourself; it has nothing to do with you. In fact, you didn't even consider your own safety for the students, and we saw all of this." One security guard said.

Another security guard chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, Teacher Li, you are an exceptional teacher! If my son's homeroom teacher were like you, I'd be reassured."

"Teacher Li really is a good teacher." A security guard said.

Suddenly, compliments for Li Weiwei erupted all around. Li Weiwei, who had only intended to say a few words to prevent the security guards from feeling they made a mistake, didn't expect this reaction, leaving her unsure of how to respond. Though they were praising her, she felt a bit awkward.

Meanwhile, the girls who were protected by Zheng Jun from the guy with the earring stood up upon hearing the security guards' words.

They looked at Li Weiwei and said, "Yes, Teacher Li, you're truly a good teacher, unlike our homeroom teacher who pretends to be urgent only after the incident ends; otherwise, he'd be hiding in the back the whole time."

"But you, Teacher Li, rushed over as soon as you heard about the incident. I've been going to school for years, and it's my first time encountering a teacher who cares so much about students." Another girl said.

Hearing this, another girl also stood up, saying, "Yeah, it's my first time encountering such a teacher. Are there spots in your class, Teacher Li? I'd like to transfer to your class. Would it be okay?"

"Yeah, yeah, I also want to join your class. Our current homeroom teacher is not good at all, and it would be wonderful to transfer."

"Teacher Li, are you accepting new students? I want to transfer to your class now." The girls kept talking nonstop.

Li Weiwei was already feeling flustered from the security guards' praises; her face was flushed. Suddenly faced with the girls talking about transferring, she was even less sure of how to respond.

Each class has a limited number of places, and if too many students are in one class, it's difficult for the homeroom teacher to manage. Currently, Li Weiwei's class has just the right number, neither too many nor too few. If these girls joined, the class size would increase.

Of course, that's not the most important issue. The main concern is that she had just fallen out with Li Zhengyi, causing tension between them, and if she now took some students from his class, it would seem like she was deliberately opposing him. The relationship between her and Li Zhengyi could become even more strained, and Li Zhengyi might deliberately target her.

Even though she's not afraid of Li Zhengyi's methods, it's best if the situation doesn't escalate too much. Therefore, she's unsure about how to respond to the girls' requests to transfer.

Surrounded by the girls still talking to her, she forced a smile but her brow furrowed slightly.

Hao Jian, observing nearby, seemed to understand her dilemma. So, he walked over to the girls and said, "Uh... let's discuss this later. For now, my teacher has some things to attend to, so we'll be heading out first."

The girls, a bit startled, didn't argue, especially since it was Hao Jian who ultimately saved them from the guy with the earring. The security guards quickly nodded and smiled, understanding the situation.

Thus, Hao Jian led Li Weiwei away, amidst the pressing crowd. Only when they reached the school and the group was out of sight did he stop.

"Whew!" Li Weiwei took a deep breath, grateful for Hao Jian's quick intervention, preventing her from getting stuck in the earlier situation.

Looking at Hao Jian, she instinctively said, "Thank you!"

If Hao Jian hadn't arrived in time to save her, she would have been groped by those gangsters. Plus, Hao Jian later helped her out of the crowd, so thanking him was the least she could do.

Hao Jian was a bit surprised. Since when did Li Weiwei start actively saying thank you, catching him off guard? But after a brief pause, he chuckled and said, "No big deal, just don't be so reckless in the future."

Li Weiwei didn't know why, but she instinctively nodded to Hao Jian's advice. After nodding, she realized it was odd; she was older than Hao Jian and his teacher. Why was she the one being lectured by him, and why did she nod seriously in agreement?

Feeling somewhat surprised, she then thought of a question, asking Hao Jian, "Do you know that Baldy? Why did he suddenly come out to help you and speak so politely to you?"

Hao Jian, seemingly unexpected of such a question from Li Weiwei, responded sincerely, "Oh! Just a friend. He saw me being bullied and naturally stepped in to help."

"Oh." Li Weiwei replied, understanding the situation. However, her mind was still stirred with thoughts.

The people earlier didn't look like respectable individuals, given their tendency to brawl and use foul language, tattoos, and attire. It was clear they were involved in street life, much more than the guy with the earring.

Immediately, Li Weiwei frowned slightly, looking at Hao Jian, and said, "Friend?"

Hao Jian nodded, saying, "Yeah, we just met recently, haven't hung out much."

Speaking truthfully, each word was sincere, and Li Weiwei understood the situation somewhat, saying, "Well, that's good since you just met. Let me advise you, it's better to keep distance from such people. You are still a student, and mingling with them might unknowingly taint you, so try to distance yourself from them in the future."

Hao Jian, knowing she'd say such a thing once she asked, nodded sincerely and agreed, "Alright, I'll listen to you."

He hadn't intended to socialize much with Baldy and his group, needing them only temporarily for certain matters. Eventually, when the time comes, it'll be Lin Dongyang's turn to interact with them, not his.

Li Weiwei, satisfied with Hao Jian's response, nodded and suggested, "How about going to eat together?"

Go eat together!

Upon hearing Li Weiwei's suggestion, Hao Jian was momentarily stunned.

Checking the time, realizing the class had been ongoing and after the disturbance, it was almost time for dismissal.
