Chapter 369: Chapter 368 You Don’t Understand

Lin Tian had disappeared, and everyone knew the news, looking around for him.

"Strange, where did that jerk run off to? He was just standing at the front of the line." Xiao Manxuan blinked her eyes, full of confusion; she was certain that Lin Tian was still there before Principal Yan finished speaking.

"Manxuan, wasn’t Lin Tian just by your side? Did you see where he went?" A few class officers approached, and Yao Yun asked.

"No, maybe...he went to the bathroom?" Xiao Manxuan said uncertainly, not even she knew when Lin Tian had left.

"This... going to the bathroom is a bit too timely, isn’t it?" Class Leader He wiped his forehead, muttering hesitantly.

Now, the entire school was watching Class 11 of the senior grade, and most importantly, city officials and people from the television station were present. If the protagonist was missing, that would be quite an embarrassing predicament.

At this moment, the class advisor Fang Ming and English teacher Liu Ruming approached from the back of the line; Teacher Liu frowned and asked, "Why isn’t Lin Tian going up yet?"

"He seems to have...gone to the bathroom," Class Leader He said, truly breaking into a cold sweat this time, embarrassed.

"What do you mean seems! Humph, that guy, he definitely skipped out," Teacher Liu grunted, recalling how Lin Tian had refused, not expecting that he would actually dismiss the face of city officials and television station staff so easily.

"I’ll go find him." Zhang Lingyu, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up, then turned and left the lineup.

The chaos on the playground was reaching a boiling point, but at this very moment, on the highest point of the teaching building, Lin Tian stood on the rooftop overlooking the whole playground with a clear view.

However, Lin Tian was completely unmoved, showing no intention of going down to join in the speech. He was idly watching the playground when a thought struck him, and without turning his head, he said, "Since you’re here, show yourself."

A figure appeared at the rooftop, precisely Zhang Lingyu, who had left the lineup to find Lin Tian. She looked up at Lin Tian on the rooftop, then leapt gracefully, easily jumping onto the two-meter-high rooftop. When she landed, her skirt fluttered, revealing her fair and tender thighs.

"White," Lin Tian’s eyes glanced briefly, catching a glimpse of the scenery beneath the school uniform skirt, and said with a smile.

As for a delicate beauty being able to jump up to the rooftop, Lin Tian wasn’t at all surprised. Although he couldn’t see through Zhang Lingyu’s strength, he knew that she couldn’t be anything less than extraordinary.

"You big pervert!" Zhang Lingyu glared at him fiercely, annoyed.

"It was you who jumped up here, and you’re wearing a skirt. It’s hard not to see it," Lin Tian said shamelessly.

"Hmph..." Zhang Lingyu hmphed, not dwelling on the matter anymore, but instead asked, "The ceremony is waiting for your speech. Why did you run up here?"

"What? Are you here to persuade me to go back, or to drag me back?" Lin Tian crossed his arms and smiled.

"I finally found a reason to leave; why should I go back? So, don’t worry, I won’t persuade you, and I won’t drag you back either," Zhang Lingyu replied.

Lin Tian was stunned, surprised by her words; it turned out she didn’t want to attend such a ceremony either.

"Well, that’s true. Basking in the sun on the rooftop, enjoying the breeze, is much better than stupidly standing down there as a backdrop for the leaders," Lin Tian chuckled, "Besides, Teacher Liu is the advisor of the English Association, so it’s all the same if she gives the speech."

Zhang Lingyu didn’t argue, instead looking out at the playground just like Lin Tian. They both kept quiet, tacitly not speaking. After a commotion, the students calmed down once more, and sure enough, Teacher Ru Meng went up to speak.

The ceremony proceeded normally, and after another half hour, it finally ended, with leaders and students beginning to disperse.

"Alright, finally breaking up, I’m heading down too," Lin Tian jumped down from the rooftop, stretching and yawning.

"Lin Tian, you always behave in a high-profile manner, so why didn’t you make a speech this time? Is there a special reason?" Zhang Lingyu looked at Lin Tian, curiously asking.

Upon hearing this, Lin Tian looked up and saw two tempting long legs under a skirt, but the little girl was standing in just the right spot that the last bit of scenery remained hidden.

"A guy as handsome as me going up to make a speech would’ve stolen the spotlight from the leaders," Lin Tian said shamelessly.

Yet, in his heart, he thought, being high-profile in actions, low-profile as a zombie, beating up rich second generations, bullying thugs, these were all private matters known to just a few people.

But appearing on a TV station was different; it would turn him into a public figure overnight. Being a public figure was the most troublesome thing, and Lin Tian certainly wasn’t willing to do that, plus it would make it much easier for his identity to be exposed.

To show off at the ceremony and put himself in danger, Lin Tian thought one must have a screw loose to do that. Besides, he didn’t really take the ceremony seriously.

"That’s true; the moment you appear, those girls start to get restless, more popular than the leaders themselves. The leaders would certainly lose face," Zhang Lingyu actually followed along with Lin Tian’s words, seriously commenting.

It was just a little commotion, not getting ~excited. It wasn’t a big deal, Lin Tian chuckled, waved his hand, and turned to leave the rooftop.

Zhang Lingyu watched his retreating figure silently thinking, Lin Tian, what secrets do you actually have that you’re afraid of others knowing?

How she thought, of course, Lin Tian didn’t know, and even if he did, it wasn’t something he could manage. After leaving the rooftop, he went down the teaching building and walked towards the classroom of senior grade three class one.

Along the way, he encountered many students. Those who recognized him stopped in their tracks, wanting to come up and chat, and some girls even looked like they were about to throw themselves at him, so Lin Tian quickly quickened his pace to leave this "place of trouble."

Approaching the classroom door, Lin Tian was about to walk in when suddenly a voice came from behind him, a voice containing quite a bit of anger.

"Lin Tian, stop right there!" It was Teacher Liu Ruming’s annoyed voice.

"What’s the matter, Teacher Ru Meng?" Lin Tian turned around, smiling.

Teacher Liu Ruming was not alone; there was a man and a woman with her. Lin Tian recognized the woman, who was the beautiful television host, wearing a white shirt and a black knee-length skirt, looking very professional.

Hmm, her figure seems even better than on TV, and she’s a bit prettier too, Lin Tian assessed for a moment, reaching a conclusion.

Rumor has it she’s the star presenter of the station, named Su Shan. As for the man, Lin Tian ignored him automatically, since he had no interest in men.

Moreover, ever since Teacher Liu called out "Lin Tian," this man’s gaze held disdain, probably resentful because Lin Tian hadn’t given their TV station face.

"Lin Tian, why did you suddenly disappear during the ceremony?" Teacher Liu still maintained her composure and asked.

"Heh, would you believe me if I said I went to the restroom? If you don’t, you wouldn’t understand the real reason either. But, you see, I’m an honest person and don’t want to lie to a teacher, so I’d better not say," Lin Tian said quite earnestly.

These words made Teacher Liu quite confused, leaving her at a loss for words.

Teacher Liu said nothing, but the man couldn’t hold back, impatiently saying, "He’s here now, let’s just take pictures and go. What a waste of time."
