"Yu Bao, just open your mouth and let me take a look. Class is over now, and people will be coming into the office soon. I don't want anyone else to see you like this, either!"

Su Yumei could feel how intensely Lin Che was staring at her. Sweat had begun to bead on her smooth forehead, and her cheeks and ears were burning hot, like fresh tomatoes.

The footsteps outside the office were growing louder.

Su Yumei could almost see her colleagues getting ready to push open the office door!

There was no choice!

She could only...

Su Yumei shot Lin Che a resentful look, then turned around.

She took out her phone, opened the front-facing camera, and snapped a selfie of her face.

"What's this...?"

Under Lin Che's puzzled gaze, Su Yumei showed him the photo on her phone.

It was a selfie showing only the lower half of her face.

Although only the area below her nose was visible, her delicate face and tender skin made it obvious at a glance that she was an unbelievably beautiful woman!

Even more tantalizingly...

The person in the selfie had her rosy lips parted, as if she'd just finished breakfast and hadn't yet swallowed the milk in her mouth.

Su Yumei would have been too embarrassed to show Lin Che directly.

But she also knew Lin Che definitely wouldn't give up!

There was no choice. She could only take a roundabout approach and snap a selfie.

The moment she pressed the shutter, even Su Yumei couldn't tell whether she felt embarrassed or excited...

"Yu Bao, I love you so much!!"

Seeing Lin Che stare without blinking, Su Yumei felt a warmth in her heart.

"Do you really like looking at it that much?"

Su Yumei chided him coyly in her heart.

The embarrassment she felt had already faded by more than half.

But clearly, her colleagues were about to return to the office. They didn't have much time left!

"I'll send you the ph...oto later."

Su Yumei spoke indistinctly, her voice full of affection.

"Yu Bao, you're the best!"

While they still had a moment before anyone came back, Lin Che gave Teacher Su another big hug.

Su Yumei blinked shyly, her face flushed with happiness.

After the hug, Lin Che hurriedly brought over some bottled water and tissues.

Su Yumei had just been about to rinse her mouth.

But right then!

The office door was kicked open with great force!

Su Yumei jolted in fright and accidentally swallowed some of the milk.

She didn't have time to rinse her mouth. She quickly shut it, afraid her colleagues would notice anything unusual!

But...

The person who'd kicked the door open wasn't one of the teachers from the office.

A petite figure appeared in the doorway. The girl stood tall, with a graceful, slender figure.

Two fair, slender legs extended from beneath her school uniform shorts. Her feet, in white cotton socks, were planted in a pair of pink-and-blue sneakers, giving her a youthful, sporty look.

Two long, slender ponytails fluttered behind her. Beneath her smooth bangs was a delicate face that seemed to radiate haughty confidence, and her bright, slightly upturned eyes looked as if they were ablaze with fury.

Lin Che recognized her at a glance.

It was Luo Xue!?

"Got you! Lin Che, I knew you'd be here!"

Luo Xue stormed into the office, fuming.

She'd searched the entire school building earlier without finding Lin Che.

Only at the end did she remember seeing Lin Che and Su Yumei kissing before!

Could Lin Che really be so brazen? Had he sneaked out of PE just to see that seductive fox?!

The more Luo Xue thought about it, the more anxious she became. She hurried all the way to Su Yumei's office.

She kicked the door open and, sure enough, saw Lin Che!

"Lin Che, you shameless jerk! I'm gonna beat you up!"

Luo Xue's possessiveness was terrifying. In her mind, Lin Che already belonged to her.

But now she'd found him alone in a room with another woman...

Luo Xue's temper exploded!

She swung her fist and charged at him!

Lin Che hurriedly grabbed her by the collar and lifted her off the ground. She kept throwing punches, but her arms were too short to reach him.

"Ahem... Luo Xue, is something the matter? You shouldn't fight with your classmates, okay?"

Su Yumei's voice came from behind Lin Che.

Her tone was as gentle as ever, but... it was as if all the warmth had been drained from Teacher Su's voice. It sounded rather cold.

Luo Xue shuddered.

Her hands gradually stopped moving.

But when she saw Su Yumei, Luo Xue's temper flared all over again!

Why was this woman's face so red?

And her hair was a mess, too.

Besides...

Where had the top button of her blouse gone?

The modest teacher's shirt had turned into a V-neck, revealing a stretch of pale skin and, just barely, a deep cleavage.

So big, and so perky?

Even fuller than Gu Yilan's!

The comparison only made Luo Xue angrier.

Lin Che had to be attracted to this shallow stuff!

"Teacher! You'd better watch your image and keep your distance from your students!"

Luo Xue had read on Little Red Book that women were born able to empathize with one another. But right now, she couldn't empathize with Su Yumei at all.

The harshest malice toward women often came from other women.

"Luo Xue, watch what you say!"

Su Yumei didn't back down at all.

The girl had barged in and started shouting at Lin Che. Even a blind person could tell she had unusual feelings for him!

"Lin Che just had a question he couldn't solve, so he came to ask his teacher."

"You still made time to study during PE. Luo Xue, you should focus on your studies, too. Don't spend all day thinking about nonsense!"

Su Yumei and Luo Xue stood their ground against each other.

There was a hidden meaning in both their words. The clash between women was truly terrifying!

"You!"

Luo Xue had naturally understood what Su Yumei was implying.

She was just about to retort, but for a moment, she couldn't think of a reason.

When she'd pushed the door open, Lin Che and Su Yumei hadn't been entangled together. They'd been standing apart.

They hadn't left Luo Xue a single thing she could use against them!

"Hmph. I'll let you off this time. Don't let me catch you again!"

Luo Xue gave an angry snort and was just about to leave.

But Su Yumei called out to her!

"Luo Xue!"

"What?!"

"When you kicked the door just now, you broke the bucket beside it!"

Luo Xue looked in the direction Su Yumei pointed.

Sure enough, the office door had chipped a corner off the bucket by the entrance, and water was spraying out of it.

"You can't damage school property. You'll stay after school today and clean the classroom!"

"You!"

Luo Xue gritted her teeth.

But it was true that the bucket had broken because she'd kicked the door too hard.

So she could only accept her punishment!

After Luo Xue left,

Lin Che suddenly realized something.

There was no way Su Yumei could have spit the milk out of her mouth in front of Luo Xue...

But she couldn't have talked to Luo Xue with something in her mouth, either.

Which meant...

Lin Che's eyes widened as he looked at Su Yumei.

A captivating blush spread from the base of Su Yumei's neck all the way to her face.

"Yu Bao, did you swallow it?"

"Mhm~"

Su Yumei nodded, turning her crimson face away so she didn't have to look at Lin Che.

Face-to-Face

Lin Che was stunned!

He stared in shock, frozen in place like a wooden post.

It was Su Yumei who, blushing, pushed him out of the office.

As he walked back to the classroom, he kept replaying Teacher Su's words in his mind...

Just thinking that...

The gentle goddess in the eyes of the whole school—the dream of countless people—had helped him empty his bar of pent-up desire right there in the office.

And she'd even swallowed it...

Lin Che felt as if his heart were about to explode!

He was unbelievably excited!

Lin Che jogged all the way back, and only then did his excitement begin to settle.
