THE MIGHTIEST LITTLE PEASANT

216-220

  He might not even pass that class!

  He thought for a while and found no solution. He would have to improvise against Teacher Gao’s antics.

  “Are you going home now, Teacher Jiang?”

  “Yup!”

  “I’ll send you outside then!” Tang Hao said.

  “You’re living off-campus too?”

   Tang Hao nodded.

  Jiang Wanying narrowed her eyes and looked at Tang Hao. Her previous doubts resurfaced again.

  “I say, Tang Hao, how did you get into the university?”

  “Well… Haha!” It was not convenient for Tang Hao to speak the truth.

  “It’s OK if you can’t tell me!” Jiang Wanying said with a pout, “So, where are you from?”

  “Westridge District! How about you, Teacher?”

  “I’m not from Province Z, but from Jianghai City. Actually, I’ve only become a teacher for a few months. The class you’re in now is my first.”

  They walked toward the main entrance as they chatted.

Chapter 217

The university campus in the night was tranquil and quiet.

  Two figures walked side by side on a small path.

  The Z University grounds covered a vast area. Walking from the academic building to the entrance usually took seven or eight minutes. They took a lot longer because they were walking slowly.

  They chatted while they walked, and Tang Hao got to understand the beautiful female teacher better.

  As Jiang Wanying walked, she used her left hand to massage her right wrist. Her brows were furrowed and she occasionally grimaced. She seemed to be in pain.

  That was where Teacher Gao had grabbed her earlier.

  “Is it very painful, Teacher?” Tang Hao asked out of concern.

  Jiang Wanying gently nodded. Her brows were tightly locked together.

  Then, she lifted her wrist to show Tang Hao.

  Her wrist was delicate and her skin was fair. However, there was an unnerving ring of redness around it.

  “That guy was too strong! If you hadn’t come to my rescue earlier, I think I might be in real danger,” Jiang Wanying said, still feeling a little afraid.

  “You ought to raise a complaint about him, Teacher Jiang. That person should not belong in a university!” Tang Hao said.

  “If only it were that easy. That guy has someone backing him. His father is a veteran professor at Z University. His position won’t be threatened by this small matter,” Jiang Wanying said indignantly.

  She rubbed her wrist and grimaced again.

  Tang Hao smiled when he looked at her. “Let me take a look at that, Teacher.”

  “What do you want to look at?” Jiang Wanying was surprised as she looked at Tang Hao.

  “Your wrist! If you don’t treat it properly, it’ll be painful for a very long time. Also, the bruise won’t look nice!” Tang Hao said.

  “What are you going to do?” Jiang Wanying became even more confused.

  “I’ll massage it a little!” Tang Hao blurted without giving much thought.
