Chapter 752: Chapter 749 Miss Returns (Part 2)
Falling in love with the same man, if that really happened, Lin Tian could probably guess the outcome: the sisters would give him up for each other, and in the end, neither would have him.
Of course, sharing one husband between two women seemed pretty good too; that way, the sisters could stick together for life, avoid leaving him, and have the best of both worlds. Lin Tian shamelessly imagined himself as that man.
"You rascal, what are you thinking about? You’re even drooling. Come on, spill the beans," Xiao Manxuan suddenly leaned over and asked with a smile.
"Uh, of course, I was thinking about our cute Miss," Lin Tian smartly responded.
His answer was indeed truthful. He had been thinking about the little girl, although the content was somewhat shameless, and his thoughts included one more Miss.
The young girl’s face turned red, but she said seriously, "Sister said you’re a big flirt and not to listen to what you say to girls."
"Is that so? If that’s the case, I will no longer say such things to the Second Miss. Ah, what a pity, my words were all heartfelt," Lin Tian sighed deliberately.
"If they are... if they are heartfelt, it’s okay to say them... sometimes," Xiao Manxuan said quietly as she lowered her head. She didn’t dare to look at Lin Tian, her fair cheeks flushing red.
The little girl’s shyness was charming, and Lin Tian was so mesmerized that he almost crashed the car into a column while driving out of the garage.
To cover his embarrassment, Lin Tian shouted loudly, "The Second Miss’s words are the highest principle at work. Not only must they be said occasionally, but they must be said every day."
"Hmph, you’re really terrible, I’m not talking to you anymore," Xiao Manxuan couldn’t resist Lin Tian’s teasing, and coquettishly rolled her eyes at him before turning her head away. However, Lin Tian saw the blush spreading down her fair neck.
Hehe, does this count as a servant flirting with the young lady of a wealthy house? Life is full of joy, Lin Tian thought contentedly.
Upon returning to the Xiao Mansion, the kitchen aunt had already cooked the meal, and Xiao Manxuan went upstairs to rest after eating. Lin Tian had long lost the habit of taking a nap, so he took the opportunity of the strong noon sunlight to start practicing the Cultivation Technique.
In the afternoon, classes resumed as usual. During a Chinese lesson, as expected, Fang Ming did not appear; she was still away on a business trip.
The only surprise was that Ma Jiangbo appeared in the classroom of senior grade three class one. Unsurprisingly, he talked about the complaint incident from the morning, spouting a bunch of official jargon about stabilizing emotions and so on—typical bureaucratic rhetoric. Lin Tian was too lazy to listen and had no idea what he was even saying.
The students of senior grade three class one knew that it was Ma Jiangbo who had let those parents in, so they showed no good faces. When there should have been applause, no one clapped; everyone was just looking down at their books.
But Ma Jiangbo was worthy of being a slick vice-principal; even though no one listened to him, he still maintained a smile and gave a long speech.
Eventually, he concluded with, "Okay, students, continue reading and reviewing. Even though Teacher Fang Ming is not here, you must study hard."
After finishing, Ma Jiangbo then turned his head to Lin Tian and said with a benign smile, "Lin Tian, come out for a moment."
Lin Tian put down his book and walked out expressionlessly, curious about what he was up to.
Under a large tree, Ma Jiangbo spoke amicably, "Lin Tian, I know this morning’s incident brought you a lot of trouble, but don’t feel burdened, focus on the college entrance exam."
Ma Jiangbo fully adopted the demeanor of a school leader comforting a student, but Lin Tian knew his real purpose. The event from the morning didn’t unfold as he had hoped, and now he was here to make amends, hoping Lin Tian wouldn’t delve further into the matter.
He had received the parents and had allowed them to come. If this could topple Principal Yan, then he would be scot-free. Now that it hadn’t worked, once someone investigated the matter further, he would be responsible.
As for this responsibility, it can be either significant or minor. If things go wrong, someone might make it difficult for him, and the consequences could be quite severe, so he needed to pacify Lin Tian and minimize the responsibility, preferably to the point where no one would pursue it any further.
Lin Tian had a very clear understanding of human nature, as clear as if his heart was a mirror.
He smiled faintly and said, "Vice Principal Ma, I have no mental burden, and my mind is entirely focused on the college entrance examination. Please rest assured, leaders."
Ma Jiangbo was overjoyed, thinking that Lin Tian would not pursue the matter further, and his smile grew even broader.
He chuckled and said, "Lin Tian, that’s very good. Since that’s the case, I won’t delay your reviewing time anymore. I’ll be heading back now."
Ma Jiangbo nodded again with a smile and happily walked toward the office building.
Really smooth, aren’t you? With that kind of mentality and character, still thinking of being a principal? Watching Ma Jiangbo’s receding figure, Lin Tian sneered inwardly.
Back in the classroom, it was inevitable that Fatty Huang and others would interrogate him. Lin Tian told the truth, eliciting a burst of indignation from his classmates, who cursed Ma Jiangbo as a hindsight expert and a sneaky villain.
"Lin Tian, are you really just letting Ma Jiangbo off like that?" Xiao Manxuan asked curiously.
Lin Tian didn’t say anything, but Zhang Lingyu answered for him, "Xuanxuan, that’s not Lin Tian’s style at all. When has he ever suffered a loss?"
Actually, Lin Tian wanted to say that he had suffered huge losses before, once when Xiao Manxuan pulled him into a short circuit and saw him completely naked, and another time in the bathroom, Zi Yan had also seen him, while he had not seen either of them. Huge loss, indeed.
Of course, such things definitely couldn’t be said outright, otherwise the little girl Xiao Manxuan would surely kill him.
"Zhang Lingyu, you really do understand me; I can’t hide any little tricks from you," Lin Tian said with a laugh.
"Hmph, who understands you? I was just saying it casually," Zhang Lingyu said petulantly.
This little girl is too strong-minded; Lin Tian can never tease her successfully and can only shake his head and give up.
For Lin Tian, Ma Jiangbo’s appearance was just a minor episode. Going to the airport to welcome Miss’s return was the big event because her return meant he could use the Xiao Group’s supercomputer.
Although Miss didn’t say it explicitly last time, Lin Tian could tell from her tone that she had almost agreed.
As soon as the bell rang for class to end, Xiao Manxuan was already impatient, grabbing Lin Tian’s hand and running out. This made Fatty Huang question whether Miss Xiao was planning to elope with Brother Tian.
Reaching the garage and getting the car, Lin Tian started it and sped off as soon as he hit the accelerator. There was a considerable distance from downtown to the airport, and it was now the rush hour, so Lin Tian was making the most of this gap.
Once on the airport highway where there were fewer cars, Lin Tian drove at the upper limit of the speed, and in less than half an hour, they arrived at Xikou City’s airport.
According to what the Second Miss had said, Miss’s plane was arriving at six-thirty. Lin Tian parked the car and came out, and it was just about time.
Lin Tian and Xiao Manxuan had just walked to the VIP passage when two beauties already came out from inside.
