Chapter 39

But He’s So Handsome

When Shen Guang came in, everyone was still stunned.

For some reason, the principal had suddenly come here.

“Teacher Han, who’s in charge of your class, is resting at home as she’s expecting soon, so we’ll temporarily arrange a new homeroom teacher for everyone this semester.”

Shen Guang glanced outside the door.

He raised his hand and pointed outside the door. Everyone turned their heads in unison to look outside.

“Jinyan, come in.”

Huo Jinyan stepped in.

That moment of oppression filled the entire classroom.

Lu Ning was shocked when she turned to look.

???

Huo Jinyan?

A teacher?

Is Huo Jinyan crazy, or have I gone mad?

She blinked and was even more shocked after confirming that she had not seen wrongly.

Lin Ci was equally shocked.

Huo Jinyan stood by the podium and his eyes swept across the students.

All of them were frozen in an instant, unable to move.

Shen Guang took a look and said, “This is Teacher Huo. Like Teacher Han, he’s in charge of teaching you English. You’re already third year students, work hard now.”

As he spoke, he deliberately glanced in Lu Ning’s direction.

“Alright, you should start class.”

After saying that he stepped down from the podium; when he passed by Huo Jinyan, he could not help but whisper, “Be gentle. Don’t scare them.”

Huo Jinyan watched him leave, then stepped onto the podium.

He was tall to begin with, so when he stepped onto the podium he looked even more towering.

He did not say much. Instead, he picked up a chalk and wrote three bold and striking words on the blackboard.

Huo Jinyan.

“My name.”

He rapped on the blackboard, and thereafter took out his textbook to begin his lesson.

The students had yet to digest this news and were still a little dumbfounded.

Huo Jinyan was wearing a suit and stood there with a hand in his pocket. His gaze swept across the dumbfounded students below the podium, and he tried his best to gently remind them, “Open your textbooks.”

At this, the students snapped out from their daze and started flipping through their textbooks.

He did not say anything unnecessary, nor did he like to write or draw on the blackboard when he was teaching. Even for the parts of the lesson which needed to be noted down, he would go through them quickly without waiting for anyone.

After a single lesson, everyone was feeling utterly miserable.

When the bell rang and Huo Jinyan walked out of the classroom, everyone collapsed on their tables as though relieved from having been pardoned.

“Ah! I’m worn out! It’s my first time getting so tired in class.”

“Ah! Teacher Huo is so scary. I probably won’t even dare to fart in his class.”

“That’s right, he went through the lesson too quickly. I’ve barely even jotted a few words in my notes and he’s already on to the next topic. Hey, hey, did you all write everything down? Let me take a look.”

Everyone was complaining endlessly.

“No way, how am I supposed to note it down when he’s talking so fast?!”

However, after all was said and done, there were still girls who could not help but be infatuated with him.

“But Teacher Huo is so handsome, I’ve never seen anyone so handsome. Moreover, his voice is so pleasant, especially when he’s reading English words. Oh! He’s so suave! Was English ever this pleasing to the ear?!”

“Yes, yes! He’s so handsome! I really want to continue hearing him speak English.”

“That’s enough from you guys! All you know is being love-struck fools! If we can’t even make notes, how are we supposed to remember the main points! Why don’t we… Tell the teacher? That he’s really going too fast.”

“I’m not going to! If you want to, you go!”

“Why don’t the girls go, aren’t you all the ones infatuated with Teacher Huo? You can look at him more if you go.”

The girls immediately shrank away. “Get lost, go by yourself. We’re happy to admire him while remaining in the background. If he’s right in front of us… Teacher Huo’s so intimidating, he’ll scare us half to death if he gets close.”

“Then what should we do? We can’t let this keep up. Otherwise, how are we going to take our exams?”
