Chapter 47
After leaving the clinic, it was already 7:00, and the morning classes had started half an hour ago. They had to accept being marked late for the first time.
Fortunately, Xu Lin borrowed the clinic doctors phone and called the class teacher, explaining the situation. Otherwise, they would surely face deductions and reprimands.
Do you want to go home and rest for a day? Ji Yun suggested, recalling the situation when the doctor applied ointment to Xu Lin.
The large bruise on his back made her feel extremely uneasy. If she hadnt thrown a fit just now, he wouldnt have gotten injured.
Its fine. The doctor said to apply the ointment and take two packets of medicine daily. It should get better in a week.
Then lets take a taxi.
Do you have money?
I didnt bring any.
I didnt either. I only have 40 yuan, which I just spent at the clinic. Lets walk; were already late; no need to rush.
So the two of them strolled along the road towards the school, expecting to arrive around the first class, as per Xu Lins estimate.
However, after only a few steps, the sound of a car horn filled the air, continuously honking several times. Xu Lin furrowed his brow and turned his head.
A nameless, bright red Maserati was parked by the roadside, honking incessantly, creating a continuous noise.
Two men passing by also sneered, saying, Having money doesnt make you impressive. Now theyre even honking the horn, disgusting!
Damn, I hate this the most.
The car suddenly jerked forward, moved a few metres, and finally stopped next to them. The window slowly rolled down.
A blonde girl stuck her head out, smiling at them. Hey, two brothers, sorry. Having money is indeed something impressive.
The two fell silent for a few seconds, turned their heads, and silently quickened their pace.
Isnt that Sister Chu Qingchans sister?
Her name is Chu Fengyi.
You two, get in the car! I have been honking for so long. She saw that they hadnt come over and shouted again.
Xu Lin walked over helplessly, and the girl squinted her eyes, smiling. But Xu Lins hair stood on end.
Whats the matter?
Im giving you a ride to school. By the way, why arent you at school at this hour? Are you skipping class for a date?
Smell me. Do you think its possible? Xu Lin leaned in, and Chu Fengyi pushed him away abruptly.
Dont get so close to me. Really, dont even think about anything inappropriate towards your sister-in-law.
I didnt! Chu Fengyi: We were going to school together, and a car almost hit her. I pulled her, and then we both got injured.
Oh, but you can still fall? What happened to the strength you showed when dodging my attacks yesterday? Get in; Ill take you.
Do you have anything else to do? Dont delay your own business.
Dont be so wishy-washy; get in already!
Xu Lin sighed, looking at the closed window. This girl had initially acted like a good girl, but after yesterdays fight, she dropped the act.
But compared to the smirking one who seemed to be in a perpetual good mood, Xu Lin found the current hot-tempered sister-in-law more bearable.
Xu Lin and Ji Yun got into the car, and as soon as they sat down, they felt the luxury of the seats. This seat is way too comfortable!
Xu Lin felt he should strive to make money; he shouldnt be a slacker. He is being subconsciously influenced.
He also saw the driver, a man in his fifties or sixties wearing a suit. Given his age, Xu Lin should address him respectfully, but the man appeared very spirited.
It wasnt about being handsome or well-dressed; it was the overwhelming aura he exuded. Ten of Xu Lins might not be enough to defeat the man.
It seems like drivers from wealthy families are formidable. However, Xu Lin became more curious about Chu Qingchan and Chu Fengyis fathers identities.
The day before, he used Baidu and Google, but there was no information. Even the bearded man who came to his house could be found, but he had no clues about him.
By the way, Second Miss Chu, you said you were looking for me today, but I have school. I dont have time to practice martial arts with you.
No, I have time. I was planning to find you at school.
And dont call me Second Miss Chu; it makes me sound like a second-year middle school student! Tsk!
Okay, okay. By the way, Little Master, how old are you?
Im 20 this year, older than you, and you are younger, much younger. You look quite young, smelly little brother!
Her words cut like a sharp knife, and Xu Lin didnt dare to retort. If he angered her, he might get a beating. But this girl was actually 20 years old?
At 20, why did she look like 14 or 15? Isnt it said that foreigners age faster?
Or maybe, despite her appearance as a blonde beauty, she also inherited the East Asian anti-ageing genes?
Whats with that look? Do you think I dont look like an adult? This lady just looks young. I graduated from college last year.
So, you graduated at the age of 19.
Yeah. But what you just said about finding meisnt that a common plot in foreign s where a beautiful girl transfers to a new school?
Xu Lin, what kind of books are you reading? But if you like that, I can talk to your school principal. However, my current role is that of a teacher.
Teacher?! Xu Lin widened his eyes, and Ji Yun beside him looked up with a serious expression.
Yeah, I didnt use any backdoor connections. I applied, passed the assessment, and officially joined.
Only then did Xu Lin and Ji Yun notice that todays Lolita Chu Fengyi had really changed into a mature adult outfit, though it looked like a child wearing adult clothes.
So, what did you apply for?
Im going to teach you martial arts, so naturally, Im the physical education teacher.
We dont have PE classes, and there wont be any in the future.
Now we do. I talked to the principal; we need to enhance the physical activity of young people. Just studying well but neglecting physical health wont help you get into good universities.
So, did you use Batmans superpower?
(T/N: May be it implies money and authority here.)
Yes, from now on, the last class on Saturdays will be replaced with physical education. But for you, there will be classes every day.
Forget it. My natural physique is not good. I can manage running, but dont bother training me. Consider me, your disciple, as having left the sect.
That wont do. You are my first disciplea big disciple. I cant neglect you!
Ji Yun, on the other hand, listened somewhat confusedly. Were they talking about being masters and disciples? Learning physical education? But she didnt seem particularly athletic.
Chu Fengyi noticed her expression and turned back to smiling.
Ji Yun, the class monitor, right? Do you want to learn with me too? Its free.
Oh, Im not good at sports.
Ji Yun, dont be fooled. Were not talking about regular sports; its martial arts.
Martial arts? Xu Lin, do you still know martial arts?!
I dont. I can only run.
He knows martial arts, even light skills. Thats settled then; youre my second disciple.
Ji Yun originally wanted to refuse, but suddenly, thinking of yesterdays events, she clenched her fists.
Second disciple learning martial arts. Im quite interested.
Ji Yun, this is not a joke; its serious, and you might get hurt, Xu Lin sincerely advised her.
No, I want to learn!
Alright! Master is very happy!
Chu Fengyi glanced at Ji Yuns tightly clenched fist, as if recalling something. Finally, she turned it into a sincere and unpretentious smile.
