Chapter 164: Chapter 163 Lei Qianxiao’s Embarrassment

Li Shuangyan was only twenty-six this year. Being so young and able to enter the Inner Courtyard, everyone called her "senior sister". Her talent was, indeed, passable.

At the same time, she was one of the few female students in the Inner Courtyard, and a beautiful one at that. She might not be breathtakingly gorgeous, but she was definitely above average.

Therefore, she carried a sense of pride in her heart and looked down on Lin Hao, intending to belittle him.

Unfortunately...

In Lin Hao’s eyes.

Li Shuangyan, in every aspect, was incapable of catching his attention.

Even the talent she took pride in, in Lin Hao’s view, was hardly worth mentioning.

He had seen geniuses of the heavens who were ten thousand times stronger than Li Shuangyan.

Moreover, truly powerful and influential figures would never send their younger generation here.

The starting points of those people were far beyond what ordinary people could imagine.

Facing Li Shuangyan’s mockery, Lin Hao glanced at her once and brushed past her, too lazy to reply, unwilling to argue with such an absurdly naive and pitiful woman.

"Is this kid so arrogant?"

"He can still act like this after losing; it’s my first time seeing such a thick-skinned guy."

"Heh, wait until today is over, let’s teach him a lesson together and show him the reality of society."

Onlookers around were discussing spiritedly, looking at Lin Hao’s back with disdain.

"Go back and cry under your blanket; stop pretending," Li Shuangyan snorted coldly.

Su Mo looked at Lin Hao’s retreating figure; although he also believed Lin Hao had lost, ever since Lin Hao taught Hong Dali a lesson, he has come to rely on Lin Hao and viewed him as a friend.

Lin Hao didn’t speak; Su Mo was silent for a moment, then followed him, "Brother Hao, it’s okay, isn’t it just a loss in a competition? And you didn’t get hurt, right?"

"Now you’re still young, about eighteen or nineteen years old, right? Being able to defeat Hong Dali at such a young age is already quite impressive."

"Look at me, I’m already thirty, and when Hong Dali comes around, I don’t even dare to breathe heavily. Sigh, someone like me is truly miserable. My parents abandoned me since I was young, and now I don’t even know where they are."

"I live alone with my grandma, and I’m only here today thanks to Principal Tang’s help. You’re much better off than I am."

Su Mo didn’t know how to comfort someone, so he just shared his own tragic experiences, "You came today, and I appeared so cold; the truth is, I’m just worried that if people get close to me, they’ll find out about my painful past. Compared to me, what are your troubles?"

With care, Su Mo patted Lin Hao’s shoulder to comfort him.

"Su Mo." Lin Hao stopped in his tracks, his expression peculiar, "You really do have it tough. In that regard, I really can’t compare with you."

"Isn’t that the case? So, you shouldn’t be sad. It’s just one competition, losing to Dean Lei is not shameful..."

"Wait a second." Lin Hao interrupted him, the coldness in his tone diminished, a slight smile in his voice, "You really do have it tough, but I didn’t lose."

"What?"

Su Mo was stunned, "You mean..."

He didn’t lose.

Could it be that he won?!

"That’s right, you guessed correctly." Lin Hao patted his shoulder, and then walked past him, heading towards the dormitory.

Su Mo didn’t follow.

His expression was very odd, not knowing whether to feel happy or worried.

Lin Hao hadn’t walked far when he crazily ran back to the villa.

At this moment.

In the villa’s courtyard, neither the tutors nor the students had left.

Everyone was waiting for Lei Qianxiao to appear.

Lin Hao wasn’t injured, and although no one thought he could win, everyone was somewhat bewildered in their hearts, waiting for Lei Qianxiao to appear in person and announce Lin Hao’s defeat.

However, they didn’t know that inside the room, Lei Qianxiao, stark naked, wore a face full of bitterness and depression.

He wanted to go out, but was too embarrassed to do so.

He thought of waiting until everyone had left, but he sneakily discovered from the window that not a single person intended to go away.

"Damn Lin Hao, this is a blatant insult," Lei Qianxiao hadn’t felt this bitter in who knows how many years.

He gritted his teeth, really wanting to teach Lin Hao a lesson, but unfortunately, Lin Hao had vanished without a trace.

Five minutes later, he could no longer wait.

With gritted teeth, he plucked up his courage.

And then, he walked towards the door.

Just like Lin Hao, the moment he pushed the door open, everyone’s gaze converged on him.

But.

Strangely, a hush fell over the air.

Lei Qianxiao saw everyone staring at him with wide eyes.

His old face slightly flushed, he coughed awkwardly twice: "Well, what, have you all become mute? Why isn’t anyone speaking?"

With that one squeak from Lei Qianxiao, everyone in the venue snapped back to reality, some women screamed, turning their heads away in shame.

"President Lei, what... What happened here?" Gao Yulan asked curiously.

"It’s nothing, just that, um, I had a sparring match with Lin just now, and I found his swordsmanship to be rather insightful, so I gave him my clothes and pants for him to use as targets for practice."

Lei Qianxiao lied seamlessly, without a trace of blush or breathlessness: "Seeing me like this, you wouldn’t think I lost, would you? What a joke, how could I lose, I, the grand..."

"President Lei, we didn’t say anything," Du Shengfang said with a dark face.

"Old Du, this is where you are wrong, you clearly said it, why do you say you didn’t?" Lei Qianxiao said seriously, "Let me tell you, as an instructor, you can’t lie, understand?"

Du Shengfang: "..."

"Nothing to say now, huh?" Lei Qianxiao kept pressing, "All of you students remember this, don’t be like Old Du in the future, and also, don’t crowd around for a spectacle like this, got it?"

"Gawking is not a good habit, have you ever considered how our new fellow student Lin Hao feels about being watched? Have you asked him if he likes being ogled?"

Everyone subconsciously shook their heads.

"See, I knew it, you didn’t ask him, in the future before gawking at others, ask them if they like to be ogled." Lei Qianxiao said this while nonchalantly walking towards the office, not giving anyone a chance to speak.

It wasn’t until he reached the office door that he suddenly paused in his speech, saying, "Given this, you all should properly apologize to Lin, and as punishment, starting tomorrow, Lin Hao will be the new instructor of the Inner Courtyard."

"From now on, he will teach you swordsmanship, understand? Tomorrow morning, early at nine o’clock, those who want to learn swordsmanship, wait for him at the library entrance."

"This decision is irrevocable."

"That’s all I have to say, no one is allowed in the office, I need some solitude to reflect on life."

Lei Qianxiao slammed the office door shut with a bang.

Behind the door, he slapped his own mouth: "Lei Qianxiao, ah Lei Qianxiao, you’ve thoroughly trashed your own aloof image, your old face is completely lost!"

Outside the office.

It was still very quiet.

Until a good while after the office door had closed.

The instructors looked at each other, confusion filling their eyes.

The disciples of the Inner Courtyard, especially Li Shuangyan, wore faces full of bewildered incredulity: "What did he say? Starting from tomorrow, Lin Hao is our school’s instructor?"

"Our... Our teacher?!!"

[The fourth update is here, today’s updates are complete, the excitement continues tomorrow. I had a frustrating thing happen today, I lost in a book competition, which is quite perplexing, but there is still a chance for competition next time, I hope I don’t lose again. Sigh, I’m asking for your recommendation tickets and contributions, and also please pay attention to the author’s Weixin official account, just search ’Shixian Yu’.]
