Chapter 16 - Chapter 16 The Reliable Adult

Half an hour later, Ye Shuang and Bai Yuyou appeared outside the school.

Ye Shuang was dressed differently. He changed into a more formal outfit and wore a pair of silver rimless glasses, which made his temperament much more refined.

"Go ahead," Ye Shuang said.

Although Bai Yuyou didn't know what Ye Shuang was going to do, she still nodded gently and walked towards the school with her satchel.

However, after walking a few steps, she couldn't help but look back. The girl could only see Ye Shuang smiling at her.

At this time, many students were entering and leaving the school gate. After hesitating for a moment, Bai Yuyou turned and walked towards the school gate.

After seeing Bai Yuyou's figure gradually disappear among the students, Ye Shuang waited for a few minutes and then walked in the direction where Bai Yuyou had gone.

At the school gate, there were several students in charge of discipline.

When Ye Shuang walked over, they all said, "Good morning, teacher."

"Good morning," Ye Shuang nodded and then walked in.

With this calm and composed appearance, it seemed as if Ye Shuang was really a teacher. And indeed, there were many teachers in Yinshan Academy. As students in charge of discipline and security guards couldn't possibly know all the teachers, not to mention that new teachers joined and old ones left every year.

Moreover, with Ye Shuang's scholarly attire and his appearance at this time, he looked more like a teacher than anyone else.

"Student," Ye Shuang casually stopped a female student and showed a gentle smile. "I want to ask you something."

The female student was taken aback. Perhaps because she thought Ye Shuang was quite handsome, she stuttered a bit as she said, "T-teacher, what is it?"

"Do you know where to get a meal card? I just started working here and I'm not sure," Ye Shuang asked.

"The meal card?" The female student looked a bit regretful and then pointed to a building not far away. "At the window on the first floor of the cafeteria. You can top up the meal card and get a replacement there."

"Thanks."

Ye Shuang blinked and then walked towards the cafeteria.

"This new teacher is so handsome. I wonder if he'll teach our third grade," the female student murmured as she watched Ye Shuang's back.

"What are you standing here daydreaming for?" A lazy voice came from not far away.

The female student turned around and saw a pretty girl with shoulder-length hair standing behind her. She immediately said excitedly, "Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu, I just saw a really handsome teacher. He seems to have just joined. He asked me about the meal card. I don't know which grade he'll teach."

Upon hearing this, An Shiyu's eyes widened. "How handsome?"

"Very handsome!" The female student gave a thumbs-up.

"I told you to read more books. Otherwise, you'll run out of words when describing a handsome guy," An Shiyu said as she put her hands in the pockets of her skirt. She didn't seem to be interested. "By the way, I haven't finished my homework. Let me copy yours."

"What? You told me to read more books, but you don't even do your own homework!"

"I'm in the top three of my grade. What does it matter if I do my homework or not?"

"You... I don't care. You owe me a lunch."

"Okay."

The two walked side by side back to the classroom. If Ye Shuang had left a little later, he would definitely have recognized that the girl with shoulder-length hair was the one who sold him the phone and the steamed buns!

Ye Shuang didn't know what happened after he left. At this moment, he had already arrived on the first floor of the cafeteria. With a quick glance, he found the place to top up the meal card.

There was a line at one of the windows. Ye Shuang went to the end of the line. There weren't many people, and he estimated that it would be his turn soon.

"Good morning," A female teacher in front of Ye Shuang greeted him politely when she saw him.

"Good morning, Teacher Chen," Ye Shuang responded calmly, pushing his glasses and smiling.

"Hmm?" Perhaps because her surname was called out, the female teacher was taken aback. Then she looked embarrassed. "Well..."

"We met during a meeting before. My surname is Bai," Ye Shuang continued. At this moment, there was a faint window in front of him.

[Character: Chen Yue

She is the head teacher of Class B, Grade 3 in Yinshan Academy, a Chinese teacher, and has a habit of passing gas.]

"Is that so? Sorry, Teacher Bai. There are quite a lot of teachers in the school..." Chen Yue was even more embarrassed. The other person could call out her name, but she didn't know his.

However, with such a handsome male teacher, she shouldn't have no impression of him. Chen Yue thought for a while and suddenly wondered if she should get a pair of glasses.

"Teacher Chen, I remember you're a Chinese teacher for Grade 3, right?" Ye Shuang continued chatting with her.

"Yes, and you?"

"I teach mathematics," Ye Shuang casually made up an answer and then continued to lead the conversation. "Teacher Chen, do you know a student named Bai Yuyou in Grade 3?"

"Bai Yuyou... She's from Class A, right?" Chen Yue's expression clearly showed that she knew Bai Yuyou's name. Then she asked, "I know her. What's wrong?"

"She's the child of my distant relative. I'm just curious if you know her," Ye Shuang said.

"Oh, you also have the surname Bai," Chen Yue nodded. "That student named Bai Yuyou is a bit withdrawn, and there are some bad rumors about her."

"What kind of rumors?"

"Ah, it's just that those students like to spread false rumors. Teacher Bai, don't take it to heart," Chen Yue seemed to realize that she had said the wrong thing. She smiled awkwardly and didn't seem to want to continue.

"It's okay. I just want to know. Can you tell me?" Ye Shuang leaned a little closer and smiled gently.

Chen Yue looked at the other person's smile, and her heart seemed to skip a beat. She immediately looked away, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Well, it's just... they say that the student's father is a murderer and her mother is someone's mistress."

Then, Chen Yue realized what she had said and quickly explained, "Teacher Bai, you know that students of this age like to spread these kinds of rumors. No matter how we teach them, they won't listen."

"You're right. The older they get, the harder they are to discipline," Ye Shuang said calmly, just smiling faintly.

"That's right... Ah, I need to top up my meal card first." Soon it was Chen Yue's turn. She gave an apologetic look to Ye Shuang and then bent over to top up her meal card at the window.

After topping up her meal card, Chen Yue left the line and said to Ye Shuang, "Teacher Bai, I'm going back to lead the morning reading."

"Okay, bye," Ye Shuang bid her farewell and then looked at the woman at the meal card window.

"Hello, I want to get a meal card," Ye Shuang said.

"Do you want to get a replacement or a new one?"

"A new one."

"The card fee is 50 yuan. How much do you want to top up?" The woman in the window didn't ask too many questions. After all, she heard the female teacher call him Teacher Bai earlier, and no one would have thought that someone would pretend to be a teacher to get a meal card.

"Two thousand yuan," Ye Shuang said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the woman looked up at Ye Shuang and then pointed to the QR code beside her. "Scan this."

Ye Shuang directly topped up 2000 yuan for the meal card.

After finishing all this, Ye Shuang, holding the white card, pushed the plain glasses on his nose.

Hmm, it's time to go and take a look at Grade 3.
