Hearing this familiar bond of intimacy, Wen ZhiChu froze instantly.
Then he turned his head frame by frame like a lagging disk drive. Sure enough, he looked right into the Dean’s kind and cordial face.
Wen ZhiChu: ……
For a second, the air itself seemed to have congealed, as if right now, even the sound of a needle hitting the ground could be heard clearly.
With lightning speed, Wen ZhiChu tried to hide the love letter inside his pocket, but the next second, he was smacked over the head by the Dean.
“Wen ZhiChu! What are you doing here?!”
Although the Dean didn’t use a lot of strength with that strike, Wen ZhiChu’s head wasn’t made of stone after all. Instantly, he whined in pain.
Covering his head, Wen ZhiChu looked down and said: “No..nothing at all.”
The Dean looked at Wen ZhiChu with his arms crossed: “Weren’t you doing something that couldn’t see the light?”
Hearing this, Wen ZhiChu hastily shook his head.
“Still not admitting it?”
Wen ZhiChu stammered: “Slip…slip of the tongue.”
The Dean didn’t believe it. His eyes were filled with doubt: “Give me a good and convincing reason.”
Wen ZhiChu paused briefly, then said quietly: “Right now…right now it’s daytime. There’s light everywhere.”
It’s not possible to do something that can’t see the light.
The Dean: ……
Qin JiaShu: ……
After saying this, Wen ZhiChu was afraid the Dean might send a greeting to the top of his head again, so he moved backwards slightly to evade.
The Dean examined him from head to toe. Immediately afterwards, he discovered a crucial matter and said sternly: “What’s in your hand?”
Wen ZhiChu hid it behind him slightly: “Nothing?”
“Hand it over.”
Wen ZhiChu didn’t move. He even took a small step back. Right now, inside his heart, there seemed to be a hundred thousand alpacas galloping wildly while spitting at him simultaneously.
Why was he this unlucky?
At this time, Skycat Genie deliberated touched the sore spot.
[System: You’re still afraid of being unlucky?]
Wen ZhiChu slowly made a: ?
[System: I thought you’re already used to it by now.]
“……”
The Dead opened his mouth once more: “Give it to me!”
Wen ZhiChu gave one last struggle: “Can I… not hand it over?”
“No!” The Dean stepped forward to grab it: “Hand it over already.”
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
The letter in his hand stolen, Wen ZhiChu’s face displayed a visible panic. One of his hands still remained in the air in a grasping motion as his eyes followed the letter closely. His healthy blood-colored lips were pressed together tightly, as if he wanted to say something to stop the process, but was too afraid to speak.

Qin JiaShu said with a smile: “It’s class time right now.”
The classrooms were only separated by a wall. Not to mention, right now they were in the corridor. There were plenty of classrooms with open doors on this floor. Any loud voices would echo in the corridor as well. The people inside in the classrooms would naturally hear everything clearly.
Qin JiaShu continued to say with his euphonious voice: “Lecturing Wen-tongxue here might disrupt the other classes.”
Regardless of how useful and reliable learning was, it’s not as interesting as listening to gossip. No matter how studious the student, most would slack off due to external influences.
Thinking about it briefly, the Dean thought it was reasonable: “You’re right, JiaShu.”
Saying this, he gave Wen ZhiChu a glance: “Follow me.”
Saying this, he walked into Class 9.
Wen ZhiChu looked up at Qin JiaShu in surprise. The other was not looking at him, but instead had walked into Class 9 following the Dean.
Although Qin JiaShu made that statement out of worry that the students of the other classes might be disturbed, it also imperceptibly protected Wen ZhiChu’s dignity as well.
During this youthful and proud age in life, who would enjoy getting criticized loudly in public for wrongdoings?
Looking at Qin JiaShu’s upright and straight back, Wen ZhiChu wasn’t sure if the other had intentionally helped him out, but carefully reconsidering how much the other detested himself, it must be due to worry over disrupting the other classes.
Soon after the two people walked into Class 9, Wen ZhiChu also slowly followed them inside.
After entering, he even thoughtfully remembered to close the door, just in case the Dean couldn’t control his volume properly later and cause the other classes to hear his words for Wen ZhiChu.
The three people’s arrival startled the two students who were in the classroom. The Dean waved his hand casually: “This has nothing to do with you guys. Focus on what you’re doing.”
After hearing this, the two people pretended to continue doing their own things, but they still secretly kept an ear out.
The Dean smacked the letter onto the table: “Tell me, what is this?”
Although his experience as a Dean for many years allowed him to tell with just one glance that this was a love letter, because Wen ZhiChu had promised him last time that he wouldn’t pursue Meng Yan anymore, the Dean decided to ask one more time.
At this time, the male student sitting in the front jumped in surprise. He turned his head to look at the three people incredulously and then glanced at the love letter that was slapped onto the table.
Wen ZhiChu found it hard to start this conversation. His gaze floated about erratically.
The Dean frowned furiously, thick brows pinching together: “Talk!”
Shuddering in fright, Wen ZhiChu: “A self…self-recommendation letter.”
Rubbish.
For a second, Qin JiaShu was also speechless. This was the first time he’s seen such a lie. It could even be said that Wen ZhiChu didn’t know how to lie at all.
At this time, the youth hung his head, not daring to look at anyone. Who knows if it’s because of shame or what, his ears were red enough to drip blood. He gripped the sleeves of his school uniform with his fingers tightly.
The Dean was just about to retort, but paused after some consideration.
Thinking about it carefully… isn’t a love letter a self-recommendation letter?!
He took a glance at Wen ZhiChu. This brat… spoke rather tactfully.
However, the Dean didn’t plan to give up without forcing out the two words ‘love letter’.
“Since it’s a self-recommendation letter, then explain to me why there’s a heart stuck onto it.”
Wen ZhiChu instantly became dumbfounded.
“Go ahead, talk.”
Wen ZhiChu braced himself and answered: “To express…express sincerity.”
The Dean: ?
Wen ZhiChu continued to speak; his voice carried a nervous tremble: “To let…let the other person know that… I’m… taking this matter to heart .”
The Dean: ……
In the end, the Dean still couldn’t hold back from stepping forward and raising his hand to smack Wen ZhiChu over the head a few times: “Excuses! Excuses! Excuses!”
The Dean was aware of the incident that occurred in this child’s family and that his current mental state was as fragile as a piece of dried seaweed. He couldn’t cause harm to the other’s psyche verbally, so there was no choice but to strike physically with his hand.
For a moment, Wen ZhiChu felt like his head was a rubber ball. After getting smacked, he ducked and dodged backwards out of the way.
“Teacher…teacher don’t… it, it’ll hurt.”
Hearing this, the Dean thought Wen ZhiChu was feeling concerned for him: “I’m not hurting.”
Wen ZhiChu swallowed: “I’m talking about me……”
“…….”
The Dean instantly took a deep breath and brainwashed himself repeatedly that he needed to have love and patience when dealing with students. Then he said: “I will give you one last chance. Tell me, is this a love letter or not!”
Seeing that it was unavoidable, Wen ZhiChu admitted: “Yes.”
Although he admitted that it was a love letter, Wen ZhiChu didn’t plan to rat out the commissioner. After all, this was his own mistake.
“Who is it written for?”
“Meng…Meng Yan-tongxue.”
“Wow, I just knew you didn’t speak a word of truth before.” The Dean flew into rage instantly. The promise that Wen ZhiChu made in the Dean’s office last time broke and shattered.
So angry, the Dean opened the love letter directly. Without even looking at it, he held it out in front of Wen ZhiChu: “Read it out loud.”
Face flushing red, Wen ZhiChu was clearly somewhat embarrassed.
This was the first time he’s written something like this, so it was pretty embarrassing.
“Teacher… it’s better if you…read it yourself.”
The Dean: “Who’d be interested in something like this!”
The next second, the paper turned around and the Dean started reading eagerly.
Wen ZhiChu: ……
Qin JiaShu: ……
The content:
“Dear Meng Yan-tongxue, hello. You’re very pretty. Everytime I see you, I can’t help but take a few more glances at you. Your nose is below your eyes and your mouth just happens to be below your nose. Inside my heart, you’re both special and not special, because other people also have noses below their eyes and mouths below their noses……”
Reading the love letter, the Dean felt his eyelids start twitching. Teaching all of these years, this was the first time he doubted himself. Maybe this really was a self-recommendation letter.
Then he said hoarsely: “Wen ZhiChu.”
Wen ZhiChu looked up at him.
“Did this teacher misunderstand you?”
Seeing Wen ZhiChu shake his head, the Dean instantly felt his vision turn black.
This love letter was written strictly according to the commissioner’s criteria. Don’t write the other person as a simp; write the other’s feelings into something neither special nor essential while at the same time expressing their adoration and appreciation towards Meng Yan.
This meant not bringing up love in any of the sentences, yet not forgetting love in every word.
Not to mention, when he sent over the content of the love letter this morning, the other party was very satisfied and said he was going to add 5 more yuan so Wen ZhiChu could earn a huge profit of 30 yuan.
At that time, Wen ZhiChu even felt somewhat touched. However, there’s no need to even talk about 30 yuan now. He’s not even going to get 3 cents.
The Dean took a general glance and discovered that this love letter did not have any audacious and explicit words; it was more praising Meng Yan for how outstanding and dazzling she was in school and in life. The entire letter didn’t even have one single word of ‘like’.
Afterwards, he cleared his throat: “You genuinely admire Meng Yan-tongxue only, without any other intentions?”
Wen ZhiChu nodded.
The Dean looked at the letter one more time and then raised a doubt: “What does your last sentence here mean?”
Saying this, he read the last sentence out loud: “Meng Yan-tongxue, in my heart, you’re yyds?”
“JiaShu, do you know?”
Qin JiaShu, without a care: “Don’t know.”
The Dean: “Wen ZhiChu, you explain to me what this means, this yyds.”
Wen ZhiChu fell silent for a while before finally saying: “Forever…forever single.”
The Dean: ……
Qin JiaShu: ……
Well damn. Destroying the unobtainable.
Since we can’t be together, then I hope the other party will remain forever single!
Wide eyed, for a second, the Dean didn’t even know how to scold Wen ZhiChu properly. It’s really too outrageous.
“Do you know what this conduct is called?”
Wen ZhiChu lowered his head and answered obediently: “An unsuccessful…criminal attempt.”
The Dean gave him a vicious scolding before finally dropping the issue. Originally, he had a huge draft planned, but he was afraid saying everything might create psychological damage to this child, so he gave up in the end.
“Since you acknowledge your mistake with a pretty good attitude this time, I will forgive you again. If it happens again, it will be a 10,000 word self-reflection, understand?!”
Wen ZhiChu hastily nodded: “Under…understand.”
After educating the student, the Dean left. Qin JiaShu also followed him out of the classroom. When he left, he noticed the gaze Wen ZhiChu used to look at him. Those eyes carried a hidden gratitude.
Qin JiaShu knew why the other would look at him like this, however, he wasn’t actually intentionally helping the other just now. It’s just he didn’t want to owe Wen ZhiChu a favor from the school uniform incident last time.
After all, anyone would feel awkward to owe this kind of person a favor.
The love letter was just…. 😂
