I Treat You as My Sister, But You Want to be My Wife?!
Chapter 647 Fear

Chapter 647: Chapter 647 Fear

The physical education teacher, realizing the conversation was about Lin Qi, hurriedly explained, "At first, I was very patient with that student, not knowing they were simply too slow to learn no matter how I tried. It was only then that I got a little angry. I would certainly be very patient with others, but at that moment I was a bit tired, and what you saw was indeed me venting my emotions."

"Mr. Shen, I apologize for that, but I promise it won’t happen again. I really need this job and hope that you will keep me on. I will prove with my future actions that I am indeed a good teacher. If you dismiss me now, where will you find another qualified teacher?"

"There are so many irresponsible teachers on the market today. I believe you might not find a good one later and may even be deceived. If you are willing to trust me, please give me one more chance. This will be a win-win outcome for both sides."

As the PE teacher finished her last sentence, her eyes burned with determination, hoping for a resolution. Regardless of whether she would be kept on or not, she deserved an explanation. She hoped Shen Dong wouldn’t be so heartless. If she were really let go, she didn’t know how she would support her family; her husband would certainly scold her.

She berated herself for being so careless as to lose such a good job. The PE teacher trembled, thinking it wasn’t her intention to insult Lin Qi, and just her luck to be caught by the boss. What misfortune.

Unable to fathom what influence Lin Qi had to be so protected by Mr. Shen, the thought of that "damsel" made her even angrier, convinced Lin Qi must have played the victim. The other teachers harbored some resentment too, resolved to give Lin Qi "special attention" upon returning.

Having said her piece, she thought it would be enough to stay, but Shen Dong, once decided, would no longer keep such a person around, replied with finality, "Rest assured, I will find a good teacher. You are no longer needed here; you no longer qualify to compete for this position. You should pack up and head home.

Find another job that suits you; you’re quite good at teaching and should find something easily. I trust in your ability, right?" Shen Dong concluded with a mocking tone before leaving.

The PE teacher tried once more, pleading, "Mr. Shen, please, consider the students are midway through their course. If I leave now and someone new has to start over with them, it wouldn’t be good for them. Let me finish the month.

After that, I’ll collect my salary and leave quietly. Can we do that? I am a responsible teacher and don’t want my lessons to end unfinished, nor do I want them to have to adapt to another teacher."

"No need, just pack up and leave," Shen Dong said, and with that final word, the PE teacher, no matter how reluctant, knew it was the end and had to leave, filled with animosity and planning to retaliate if given the chance.

Blaming Lin Qi for her job loss, the PE teacher left angrily. Lin Qi, training inside, kept glancing outside, hoping the PE teacher wouldn’t be strict upon returning. Little did she know, it was Shen Dong who came back instead.

"Huh, why does he look so handsome now?" Lin Qi wondered why this thought suddenly crossed her mind. Before she could approach him, Cheng Yaojin cut in, which was Lin Yun. Seeing Shen Dong, Lin Yun threw herself at him like a starving dog at a piece of meat, smiling, "I’m sorry, I didn’t know earlier, but you’re the famous Mr. Shen who started this big bar. It’s beyond what I could have ever imagined, and I get to work here.

Thank you, Mr. Shen. Was my performance up to standard? I haven’t practiced for long and am unsure if it’s fitting, so please teach me if there’s anything amiss."

Lin Yun’s smile was sweet, like a naive young girl, deceiving with her words. If Mr. Shen were not aware of such worldly matters, he might have been fooled by her appearance, but Shen Dong had seen too much of this.

Unimpressed by her act, he merely nodded politely and distantly, "You’re already doing well, you just joined yesterday, right? Doing this well already is commendable, and I believe you’ll receive many tips tonight. I have other matters, so please excuse me."

After speaking with polite but distant manners, Shen Dong passed by Lin Yun, heading towards Lin Qi. Lin Yun, who had wanted to say more, stopped awkwardly, thinking maybe Shen Dong really was busy and shouldn’t be pestered.

Wanting to leave a good impression, she sweetly said, "Alright then, Mr. Shen, you go ahead. I hope you’ll come to see my performance when you get the chance."

Though her smile remained, Lin Yun wondered if the boss had really listened to her. She couldn’t just blurt out and demand his attention; she had to be coy and not too clingy with men, or they will not value her.

Lin Yun was trying this tactic to catch the boss’s interest, but Shen Dong wasn’t concerned with such tricks. Lin Qi almost laughed at the sight; Lin Yun was so aloof with the women but acted differently around men. Holding back a chuckle, Lin Qi couldn’t help but despise the flirtatious attitude while considering that the PE teacher might return.

Practicing her moves and glancing around, Lin Qi kept an eye out for the PE teacher, not wanting to be embarrassed in front of Shen Dong again, feeling her face flush. Observing intently, Lin Qi noticed Shen Dong approaching her.
