My Childhood Sweetheart Is a Little Crybaby!-Chapter 114 Even If I Fell In Love Early, I Wouldn’t Fall For This Girl
Although Xu Jinyan doesn’t care what others think, and even hopes for misunderstandings, he’s not bold enough to admit it in front of a teacher.
"Teacher, I also want to know who’s spreading these rumors. Do we look like we’re dating?" Xu Jinyan, lanky and long-limbed, stood lazily in front of the homeroom teacher.
Jiang Yuan nodded in agreement.
The homeroom teacher glanced at him, then let his gaze fall on the young girl beside him. She was quietly and demurely standing there, not looking like a student prone to puppy love at all.
Putting these two together, they were indeed pleasing to the eye— one well-behaved and the other simple-minded, one a top student and the other an underachiever...
Of course, none of these were factors that affected love.
As a homeroom teacher for so many years, he had seen his fair share of puppy love. Judging by their reactions, they didn’t seem like they were dating.
"But I heard that you two admitted it yourselves?"
"Teacher, it’s all a misunderstanding!" Xu Jinyan spoke lazily, "Besides, even if I were to fall in love early, I wouldn’t go for this girl."
Jiang Yuan’s face darkened slightly, and the corners of her mouth twitched involuntarily.
This guy must have forgotten why they were both standing here.
She was kindly helping him out, and now he’s acting all proud and cocky.
"Oh, you even turn your nose up at her?" The homeroom teacher couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing this.
He now believed that they truly weren’t dating. Otherwise, based on what he had just said, they would break up if they hadn’t already.
"Of course!" Xu Jinyan huffed.
He would never choose that girl, no way.
Jiang Yuan forced a smile, but inside, she had twisted off that guy’s head hundreds of times.
The homeroom teacher was worried that if he asked any more questions, the boy would seriously offend the young girl. Didn’t you see the fire already starting in the little girl’s eyes? He wondered, how could such a good-looking young man just be all mouth?
If he had the same looks in the past, would he still be an old singleton?
He Shang hurriedly cleared his throat to divert the conversation, "You just said it was a misunderstanding?"
Suppressing the urge to twist off Xu Jinyan’s head, Jiang Yuan’s voice was soft and gentle as she replied to the homeroom teacher: "Teacher, we never said we were in a relationship. It’s all been a misunderstanding."
"If it’s a misunderstanding, why didn’t you explain to everyone?" He Shang asked.
Jiang Yuan glanced at Xu Jinyan, her face showing a slight sign of difficulty, "It’s because Xu Jinyan was troubled by girls from other classes always seeking him out, seriously affecting his studies— that’s why he asked for my help and intentionally didn’t clarify the situation."
Don’t blame me for being unkind if you are unrighteous.
The young girl unburdened herself of all the blame and dumped it onto Young Master Xu.
Her explanation wasn’t entirely wrong, though.
Even if Xu Jinyan felt something was off, he couldn’t articulate any objections and could only nod in agreement: "Teacher, it’s true, they’re all so annoying. Maybe you could speak to them and ask them not to keep pursuing me?"
He Shang: ...
Listen to this, what kind of talk is that?
Is he suggesting that this old, single dog hasn’t been irritated enough?
Besides, as if this guy really worries about his studies being affected.
Couldn’t these two find a more plausible excuse?
He Shang felt a wave of frustration as if an old grievance had lodged in his throat— it cut deep! Although it was a lie that his studies were being disturbed, his annoyance with those girls was indeed real.
"Well, having girls fancy you is a good thing, too. I’ll talk to them. Alright, you can go back now!"
Too old for these shocks, he needed to brew some goji berry tea to calm his nerves.
