Chapter 93: Chapter 93 Deliberate Harassment

If the manuscript is rejected, she...

And his own, why has there been no word for so long? God knows how anxious he is...

Perhaps because of this letter, when Han Mingyue got up the next day, she still felt downcast.

After arriving in the classroom, she just sat at her desk in a daze until the history class representative tapped on her desk several times, and she finally snapped back to reality.

"Ah?"

"Your homework!" repeated the history class representative, feeling helpless.

Han Mingyue looked down, searching through her things.

After a while, she raised her head, slightly embarrassed, and said, "I seem to have forgotten to bring it."

The history class representative: "..."

That was truly unexpected! The committee member known for self-discipline had actually forgotten her homework one day?

Despite his thoughts, he still asked, "Should I report this to Teacher Shen as it is?"

Han Mingyue nodded, "Mhm."

The history class representative moved on to collect homework from others, and Han Mingyue didn’t give this trivial matter another thought.

She didn’t need to look at the schedule to know which textbook to get out, expertly pulling out the history book onto her desk.

-

Soon, the class bell rang.

Teacher Shen, who taught the first and second years of junior high history, walked into the classroom with a droopy face and pursed lips, looking quite unapproachable.

First, her eyes scanned Shen Qi, and under her stern gaze, the female class president stood up and announced, "Class is starting!"

All students stood up and bowed, saying, "Hello, teacher!"

"Hmm, sit down!" Teacher Shen pressed her hand down, not completely satisfied, and her gaze swept over the few unfocused and poor-performing students.

"Last time, we discussed..."

By the end of the class, most of the students’ minds had wandered off—including Han Mingyue.

She had thought about things for too long the night before, and only finished her homework close to ten o’clock. After getting into bed, she couldn’t sleep and didn’t even know what was on her mind.

Not to mention waking up late this morning, she was also particularly listless.

Thus, the history lesson that was usually just a bit boring for her became the best way to fall asleep today.

She was already struggling not to lay her head on the desk—how could she possibly listen to what the teacher was saying?

-

Teacher Shen, while lecturing, glanced at her watch; there were ten minutes left until the end of class.

Her gaze shifted from the watch to the front row of the classroom; either the students were distracted or they were sleepy, with only a few actually listening to her.

Teacher Shen had long been accustomed to this; as long as they weren’t whispering or causing a commotion during her class, she wouldn’t bother with students who could sit quietly.

Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she spotted a scene—her niece Shen Qi looking back sneakily at a boy diagonally behind her!

Reflecting on the girl’s behavior since the semester began, a sudden fury engulfed Teacher Shen.

Although she had taken over teaching the second year’s history class only a few months ago, that boy’s name was very familiar to her because she heard it often from her mother—Shen Qi had been mentioning his name frequently lately!

"Han Mingyue!" Teacher Shen called out sharply.

Han Mingyue, who was dozing off, suddenly heard the teacher calling him, and instinctively stood up quickly, "Here!"

With that action, all traces of sleepiness vanished immediately.

He scratched his head, somewhat puzzled as to why the teacher called him.

-

Teacher Shen squinted her eyes and asked, "Where did I leave off just now?"

Han Mingyue: "..."

He really didn’t know.

"Can’t answer?" Teacher Shen first asked lightly, and then angrily shouted: "Are you here to study? Or to sleep?! If you want to sleep, go home and sleep!"

The whole class perked up, not understanding why Teacher Shen suddenly picked on Han Mingyue without apparent reason.

Han Mingyue knew it was his fault and sincerely apologized, "Teacher, I was wrong."

Everyone thought that as a good student like Han Mingyue, who had only made a mistake this once and had apologized so earnestly, Teacher Shen would definitely be lenient and let him sit down.

Unexpectedly, "You think you can be arrogant just because you have good grades! Go stand outside!"

Students eating melon seeds: "..."

This doesn’t seem right! The students in the class who, like Han Mingyue, hadn’t been paying attention to the lesson weren’t ten percent but certainly made up eighty percent, yet Teacher Shen only picked out Han Mingyue.

It was obviously a deliberate targeting of the class monitor~~~

Everyone’s imagination was running wild, only the history class representative revealed a mysterious smile.

When he handed in his homework, he thought Teacher Shen really was lenient with good students~ And unlike usual, she didn’t mention how Han Mingyue, who didn’t hand in his homework, should be punished, and just let him go.

It turns out Teacher Shen was waiting here for Han Mingyue~ How sneaky, how sneaky!

From now on, he definitely had to finish his history homework first, right! Just like that!

And absolutely must not forget to bring it! Otherwise, he would end up just like Han Mingyue!

Han Mingyue stood in the cold wind outside the classroom for about five minutes before the class bell rang.

Then, Teacher Shen did something unexpected to all the students: she took Han Mingyue away from outside the classroom... away...

Class 1 of the second year exploded, buzzing like a marketplace throughout the period, with several girls even gathering around Shen Qi, insinuating that she should go and persuade Teacher Shen.

After all, it wasn’t long after the start of school that they learned from Shen Qi’s mouth that the new history teacher was her aunt.

Shen Qi ignored them, sitting at her desk with a tightly furrowed brow, silent.

If it had been any other teacher, she wouldn’t have minded lending a hand to increase Han Mingyue’s goodwill towards her.

But that was her aunt!

It was normal for the others not to have noticed, as their attention wasn’t on her in class at the time.

But Shen Qi was a precocious girl, and it was precisely when her thoughts were wandering, secretly looking at her ’lover’, that her aunt called Han Mingyue out.

How could she not make the connection? Her aunt might have realized her feelings!

The look her aunt gave her when she left clearly contained a warning, how could she dare go and plead for leniency? Wouldn’t that be confessing without being pressed?

But what was she to do now?

She didn’t have any spare effort to worry about Han Mingyue; she was more concerned about herself now.

What if her aunt told her parents about her feelings, how should she explain then...

For the first time in his life, Han Mingyue was brought by a teacher to stand outside the teachers’ office as a punishment.

Teacher Shen just ordered him to stand up straight against the wall outside the corridor, then went into the office herself.

During the break, teachers and students passing by looked at him, either openly or covertly, Han Mingyue only felt his face flushing, so embarrassed he felt like his scalp was about to explode.

Previously when he heard his younger brother talk about being punished to stand by a teacher after returning home, Han Mingyue thought his brother deserved it for being playful and that the teacher was doing it for his own good, to give him a lesson to remember.

But now that it was his turn to experience such an embarrassing situation, he firmly thought otherwise.

Those few minutes felt as long as several centuries to him.

Han Mingyue would rather be punished by the teacher to copy the text a hundred times than to continue standing here being watched like a monkey.

Summoning up his courage, Han Mingyue turned around, wanting to go to the office and apologize to Teacher Shen again.

Apologizing again required much less courage than continuing to stand there.
