Chapter 290: Chapter 289 No Interest

"Ah, no secretary for the president, that’s too bad," a female student said with a disappointed face, expressing regret.

"President Lin, you could set up a president’s secretary position so I can help you with your work when you’re busy," another girl suggested excitedly, proposing a new position out of the blue.

Her proposal was unanimously approved by the girls, and even some boys joined in the fray. As a new round of heated discussion was about to begin, English class turned into a debate session.

Lin Tian had to signal them to be quiet once more and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, we’ll address this matter later. The school leaders’ approval hasn’t come through yet. When it does, someone will organize the association’s various departments and complete the bylaws. For now, let’s focus on the lesson."

"Fine..."

Though still excited, the group finally calmed down. Liu Ruming couldn’t help but feel somewhat helpless. She had merely made a suggestion, but it almost led to the class being disrupted, which just showed how influential Lin Tian was.

She became even more determined to seize this opportunity. Once such charismatic students graduated, they would be impossible to find, even with a lantern, and she couldn’t let go of him, even if it was just to have him in name as the president.

Finally, the lesson began smoothly, and Lin Tian breathed a sigh of relief. Liu Ruming’s teaching was indeed creative – she didn’t focus on abstract concepts but emphasized practicality. Just as she herself said, the ultimate goal of learning any language is to communicate, to exchange ideas, to gain more knowledge.

Unlike her predecessor Wu Li, who spent every lesson emphasizing how important English was, how elegant and noble it was, how wonderful it would be to go abroad if one mastered it. Whenever Lin Tian heard these remarks, he felt like punching Wu Li. "You foreigner-worshipping ’sea turtle,’ go lick the toes of your foreign ’daddy’ abroad!" he thought.

By the end of the class, Lin Tian had learned quite a bit. His previous self-study had been unsystematic, but now it was like joining a school and systematically learning. This complemented his own methods, and he felt that he had improved a lot.

After finishing the last math class of the day, it was finally time to leave school. As soon as the math teacher left the classroom, a group of boys and girls immediately surrounded Lin Tian.

"Aren’t you guys hungry? Why don’t you leave? Why are you crowding around me?" Lin Tian looked around in confusion and asked.

"Brother Tian, it seems like you’re pretty close to Teacher Liu. Got any secrets to share?" A boy’s curiosity piqued, he asked about these trivial matters.

Lin Tian found it boring, but not everyone else thought so. Liu Ruming was a new and young teacher at Xikou City High School. She appeared only a few years older than the senior students and taught well, naturally becoming the focus of the students’ attention.

Any man who appeared around her naturally became the center of attention as well. Once the boy asked his question, the others also looked at Lin Tian expectantly, hoping to hear some explosive news.

Zhang Lingyu and Xiao Manxuan both looked at him, both thinking unspokenly, "Could this jerk have moved so fast, even getting close to the beautiful teacher?"

Otherwise, why were they so in tune during English class and even discussed how to set up the English association? It was hard not to be suspicious.

Emotions are indeed contagious, and soon all the students seemed to have the same idea.

"Hey, what’s with those looks? And you, Xiao Manxuan, and you, Zhang Lingyu: we’re together every day. Don’t you know me by now? Someone as honest as me, who can’t even charm girls, let alone date junior students—how could I possibly approach the wise and formidable Teacher Liu? You all are wrongly accusing me," Lin Tian retorted, glancing at each one and speaking out loud to defend himself.

"Oh, the three of you hang out together every day..." Fatty Huang, despite his size, was quick-witted. He immediately caught the highlight in Lin Tian’s words, deliberately stretching his words as he spoke.

This caused Xiao Manxuan and Zhang Lingyu to blush deeply. Instead of going after Fatty Huang, both of them glared at Lin Tian in unison.

"Fatty Huang, do you still want to practice martial arts or not?" Lin Tian glanced at him and said just that.

Sure enough, Fatty Huang immediately surrendered. He chuckled and said, "Of course, Brother Tian is an honest man in my heart, a pure man, a man of integrity, purer than boiled water..."

After a barrage of flattery, Lin Tian felt a wave of chills and broke out in goosebumps. Nevertheless, he managed to shut up the biggest gossip in Class 1 of senior year three.

But as Lin Tian quieted this one, another gossip cropped up on the other side. Gao Le suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Ah, I get it now. Is it because Brother Tian is handsome, and Teacher Liu fell for him, then she made her move on Brother Tian?"

As soon as he said this, the whole class fell silent, everyone turning to look at Gao Le, who shrank his neck in fright and dared not make another peep.

"It’s possible you know. ’A man chasing a woman is separated by mountains, a woman chasing a man is separated by a veil,’ as they say," someone muttered softly.

"Stop!" Seeing the conversation getting more and more outrageous, Lin Tian shouted a stop and then said, "Where are your ethics, honestly? Flashy ones are easy to dodge, but the sneaky ones are hard to defend against—I am overwhelmed right now. Let me tell you, this ends here, this topic shall not leave this classroom. If it gets out and scares Teacher Liu away, driving her to leave the school, do you really want to see that happen?"

"Of course not!"

"If Teacher Liu leaves and someone like Mr. Wu comes along, I wouldn’t stand for it."

Everyone shook their heads non-stop, indicating they didn’t want Teacher Liu to leave, especially the guys. It was not easy to finally have an eye-pleasing, and capable beauty teacher—I f she left, the remainder of their senior three days would become too dull.

"So, I’m looking out for your best interests. Alright, that’s it. Disband now, everyone to your own homes, everyone to your own meals," Lin Tian waved them off, setting the issue in stone.

The students, still curious, could only disperse and head back. After everyone left, Lin Tian took a deep breath. Handling these gossipy people was no easy feat. Man, I’m truly talented to have come up with such a method to scare them.

Just as Lin Tian was feeling proud of himself, he noticed the two school beauties were still staring at him without letting up. He quickly put away his smile and said, "If there’s nothing else, ladies, let’s head back."

"You might have fooled them, but not me. Tell me, what happened between you and Teacher Liu?" Xiao Manxuan raised her little fist, threateningly.

"Uh, Zhang Lingyu, do you also think I haven’t been truthful?" Lin Tian asked.

"You didn’t even say anything, so where’s the truth? You think I’m a three-year-old kid?" Zhang Lingyu gave him a glance and said.

"Let’s walk and talk. I really didn’t have much to tell," Lin Tian found these two gossips were the toughest to handle and took the lead in leaving the classroom. He very sincerely said, "It was like this, Teacher Liu was coming down the stairs..."

After much talking, Lin Tian clarified the situation.

"You’re saying you played the hero to save the beauty? And you didn’t take advantage of Teacher Liu?" Xiao Manxuan said, somewhat disbelieving.

"Of course, I’m not interested in Teacher Liu," Lin Tian said.

"Oh? You’re not interested in me?" The voice of Liu Ruming suddenly came from behind him.
