The Time-Limited Love and Marriage -
Chapter 50
Chapter 50: Chapter 50
Jiang Moxi spent the night sleepless and is now extremely tired. As soon as she entered the classroom, she flopped down and instantly fell asleep.
As Lai Xueer walked into the classroom, she saw Jiang Moxi sprawled over the desk which suddenly irritated her immensely.
"Why sleep in class, just sleep at home instead?"
Yesterday, Teacher Xiao Zhong said that if Jiang Moxi skipped class for no reason again tomorrow, he would report to the leadership and deduct all her daily performance points, preventing her from graduating smoothly.
Lai Xueer had been looking forward to it since yesterday, hoping that Jiang Moxi would skip class again today and be unable to graduate smoothly in the future.
But as luck would have it, Jiang Moxi came to school early in the morning.
All of Lai Xueer’s happy expectations were dashed, no wonder her mood was terrible!
At that moment, Ling Ye walked into their classroom with a cup of milk tea and a big bag of cookies, just in time to hear what she had just said.
Then, as he handed her the milk tea, Ling Ye said,
"Moxi must not be able to sleep at home, that’s why she came to school to sleep. Xuexue, it’s not like you’re paying for Moxi’s tuition, so don’t worry about it."
Lai Xueer immediately felt a tightness in her chest.
If it weren’t for the fact that Ling Ye had openly confessed to her several times and still insisted on bringing her delicious milk tea every day, she would suspect that Ling Ye was acting on Jiang Moxi’s behalf just to annoy her.
Lai Xueer was in a bad mood, so naturally, there was no smile for Ling Ye.
"Fine, I get it, but I don’t want to drink milk tea today, you can take it back."
What she really wanted was for Ling Ye to understand that his protection of Jiang Moxi was angering her.
She hoped Ling Ye would stop doing things that made her angry from now on.
But clearly, Ling Ye was just a blunt straight man, completely unaware of her anger, and even smilingly said,
"Then I’ll bring it to you tomorrow."
He then took the milk tea away, tiptoed over to Jiang Moxi’s side, gently put the bag of cookies on her desk, and then left their classroom.
Seeing Ling Ye acting so cautiously around Jiang Moxi, Lai Xueer was about to explode with rage.
And to think that even though she knew his shoes weren’t AJ, his clothes were not brand names, and even when the strap of his bag broke, he barely managed to keep it together with a clip, she still pretended not to realize he was a penniless guy!
With this kind of attitude, he still daringly hoped she would agree to date him?
Bah!
In an instant, the bell for class rang.
Xiao Zhong had just entered the classroom, and his gaze immediately swept towards Jiang Moxi’s seat.
His grudge with Jiang Moxi wasn’t merely about the previous incident of her making him lose face in class.
Recently, while he was live-streaming his lectures, a user called "MM" kept throwing top-level difficult questions at him during the streams, leaving him unable to answer and turning him into an object of ridicule among the viewers.
Xiao Zhong always considered himself a role model for his students and rarely held grudges, except for against Jiang Moxi!
Therefore, this user called "MM" must certainly be Jiang Moxi!
She was deliberately doing these things during his live-streams to take revenge on him, Xiao Zhong, for the difficulties he had given her in class, just to embarrass him.
Xiao Zhong was also looking forward to the opportunity today to deduct all of Jiang Moxi’s daily performance points rather openly to get back at her.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Moxi had come to class again.
And moreover, she had fallen asleep right in front of him.
This was definitely a challenge to his bottom line.
"Jiang Moxi!" Xiao Zhong directly called her name.
Mu Wanting hurriedly shook Jiang Moxi awake and whispered, "Moxi, Bitch Xiao is calling you."
"Oh!" Jiang Moxi got up while yawning.
She hadn’t slept all night and was truly at the peak of her tiredness.
But Xiao Zhong still regarded this yawn as disrespect from Jiang Moxi, and he asked coldly, "What have you been doing for the whole week without coming to school?"
"This should fall under personal life, and I don’t think you have the right to pry."
During this week, Jiang Moxi had been staying in the hospital and had a terribly unhappy time being rumors of Jiang Weiwei falsely accusing her of getting an abortion.
Therefore, she didn’t want to mention it at all right now.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Zhong became furious at her words.
"I have no right to ask? Jiang Moxi, don’t forget that you’re still a student, and students should be under their teachers’ supervision."
"Teacher, supervision is the responsibility of a guardian," Jiang Moxi said.
"Are you saying that, as I’m not your guardian, I do not have the right to concern myself with your unexcused absences this entire week?" Xiao Zhong’s tone started to get aggressive.
A frown creased Jiang Moxi’s brows, as she was about to say something.
But before she could speak, Xiao Zhong continued, "Fine! Very well! Since you think I have no right to question your unexcused absences this week, we’ll have to trouble your parents to come to school, to see if they’re aware of what you’ve been doing during this time and how your unexcused absences should be dealt with!"
The mention of calling her parents immediately gave Jiang Moxi a headache.
"Teacher, can we not involve my parents? You can punish me with anything else, and I’ll do my utmost to comply."
Jiang Guosheng and Yu Man both assumed she had gone for an abortion this week and were furious with her.
If they were now asked to come to the school...
Jiang Moxi didn’t dare imagine that scenario.
Last time, Jiang Moxi had rather solved a difficult problem than have her parents called in.
And because of that, Xiao Zhong found out that Jiang Moxi was afraid of her parents being called.
Which was precisely why he insisted even more on having Jiang Moxi’s parents come, aiming to embarrass her.
"If your parents aren’t present tomorrow, then you don’t need to attend my class anymore, and I will also apply to the higher-ups to have all your daily performance grades deducted."
Xiao Zhong did not leave any room for negotiation, making Jiang Moxi feel somewhat desperate.
The prospect of no longer attending Xiao Zhong’s class was actually quite appealing to Jiang Moxi.
However, the possibility of having all her daily performance grades deducted and not being able to graduate was unacceptable to her.
So for the rest of the day, Jiang Moxi was troubled by the situation with her parents.
It wasn’t until that evening, when she saw Fu Youhan in the ninth floor private room, that she suddenly saw a glimmer of hope.
Today, as she served Fu Youhan for a certain purpose, she did it with exceptional eagerness.
You see, she didn’t stop bustling around from the moment Fu Youhan entered the private room, pouring tea, offering water, lighting cigarettes...
She even, right before Ye Chen and Yu Dingding, placed the peeled grapes to Fu Youhan’s lips.
"Want to eat some fruit?"
Fu Youhan glanced at the grapes by his lips, then looked up at Jiang Moxi.
His dark eyes narrowed slightly, trying to read something from Jiang Moxi’s face.
Ye Chen teasingly commented, "Today, someone is really lucky!"
Yu Dingding also observed the two with curiosity in her eyes.
Fu Youhan gave him a cold look and then said to Jiang Moxi, "Speak if you have something to say."
Jiang Moxi was not the type to take the initiative without reason.
Otherwise, her sudden move to feed him grapes wouldn’t have caused such a significant reaction from Ye Chen and Yu Dingding.
This meant she definitely had something she needed from him!
Jiang Moxi opted for a straightforward approach: "Can you come to my school tomorrow?"
"What for?" Fu Youhan asked.
"If it’s not an entrance ceremony, the only reason for him to go to your school is because the parents have been called in! Stupid!" Ye Chen continued to joke on the side.
Fu Youhan threw the wine bottle cork he had just opened at Ye Chen, who acted as if he’d been shot and pretended to collapse into Yu Dingding’s arms.
With the noisy one taken care of, Fu Youhan looked back at Jiang Moxi, "Really been asked to have your parents in?"
Jiang Moxi blushed slightly and nodded her head.
"What role do you think I should play?" Fu Youhan asked, his eyes deep and inscrutable.
Just as Jiang Moxi was about to reply, Fu Youhan suddenly suggested, "As your teacher for the class?"
Ye Chen instantly "resurrected" with a gossip-hungry expression, "Wow, since when did you start teaching people? Must charge a fortune, right?"
Only Jiang Moxi’s face turned bright red.
Because that teaching was not... the classroom kind.
