Crashing into a Crab

Quiet—

The classroom was very quiet. The result of establishing authority was quite good.

Zhou Yi swept her gaze around again. Seeing that, apart from Jiang Mu, no one else even dared look at her, the smile on her face gradually stiffened, and she frowned, deciding that Jiang Mu might be another troublemaker.

Yet sensing the abundant soul power on him, he did not seem like someone who needed an exemption quota to get in.

Had she actually gotten lucky?

Her eyes rolled twice in their sockets before she swept her gaze over the students again. After confirming that Jiang Mu was the only one not showing fear, she withdrew her gaze.

She turned to Huo Yuhao and said coldly,

"Hmph. Since it's your first offense, I'll let you off this time. If there's a second time, leave my class immediately and save me the trouble of scolding you."

"Yes, Teacher. I definitely won't be late again."

Huo Yuhao nodded quickly, a strained smile on his face.

Was there killing intent? Ah, no.

He even found it familiar, warm.

The memories he had brought over from transmigrating made him view Zhou Yi through a very flattering lens. He only thought she was the cold-faced, kind-hearted type.

Having lacked maternal love since childhood, he remembered Zhou Yi bringing him food several times. He simply could not muster any killing intent or ill will toward her.

Huo Yuhao quickly walked upward. He did not even have time to scan the seats and search for the person he wanted to find, hastily taking an empty seat.

"Hmph."

Zhou Yi snorted coldly at his actions.

"Starting from the left, let's introduce ourselves one by one..."

"Ah—"

Creak, creak!

The podium was jolted directly. The enormous noise made all the students look up unconsciously.

"Uwah~"

Besides the muffled groan, Jiang Mu actually seemed to hear another sound.

Apart from the pained groan, there seemed to be a delicate—

Shh~

It just was not very obvious. He restarted his spell to inspect it.

Zhou Yi's entire body was trembling. It did not seem as simple as merely being bumped.

Zhou Yi:(⸝⸝⸝>`﹏ˊ<⸝⸝⸝)

There were actually faint wet marks on her thighs.

They were especially obvious on her black stockings.

Jiang Mu:⊙﹏⊙∥

The others could not see it, but Jiang Mu could. He thought he was seeing things.

Whether it was the spell he used at close range or clairvoyance, the image did not change.

Seeing it would have been better than not seeing it. His mouth hung wide open!

She had actually bumped into the Black Forest crab.

Zhou Yi's fairly pretty face instantly flushed scarlet, covered in a red glow.

But no matter how pretty her face was, it simply could not be reconciled with the scene before him.

Jiang Mu used his spell to look at the droplets hidden behind the lectern, then looked up at Zhou Yi.

Had he gone too far?

With that curiosity, he scanned the Revenge List again, confirming the causality he had set.

Yet as soon as he finished reading it, he frowned.

He had only written, "Accidentally hit the corner of the desk, get injured, and cry out."

There was nothing else. Before that was: the mask had an accident, revealing the true face.

There was no such plot here.

He had not written it clearly enough, and she had hit somewhere she should not have!

Who could have imagined she would end up like this?

"Mm~" Zhou Yi's expression stiffened at that moment. She also seemed not to have expected things to turn out this way.

But the coolness filling her legs proved that it was indeed true.

Her face slowly turned bashfully red.

Just then, a bolder student beside her spoke up to ask,

"Teacher, what's wrong with you?"

Zhou Yi had initially been angry and frightened the students, but then she turned around and carelessly crashed into the podium, looking rather unreliable. This made the students relax again, and some thoughts arose in their minds.

The tense atmosphere from before instantly eased.

Especially now that the teacher had even lost her composure, blushing as she slowly shrank back with an embarrassed look. This made them even more certain of their thoughts.

Quite a few students stood up on their own initiative to show concern.

"Teacher, are you feeling unwell?"

So many students stood to offer their concern. The scene was moving, but Zhou Yi's expression was very strange.

"I-I'm fine."

Her legs trembled and her gaze darted away, yet she still forced herself to deny it.

Jiang Mu narrowed his eyes, wondering if her temper was so explosive because she was going through menopause.

Or had she gone too long without a love life?

"This, this..."

Jiang Mu nodded with certainty. It was probably just as he had guessed.

But this plot was far too different from what he had imagined.

He had only wanted to make her embarrass herself. Who could have expected it to turn out like this?

Or rather, it was not quite what he had imagined. It seemed he really needed to write things in greater detail.

Otherwise, this system that was gradually becoming improper might add some special material of its own!

"Hiss~"

As the faint breeze blew past, Zhou Yi lightly sucked in a breath of cool air. Her face, which had barely maintained its cold expression, became burning hot again and turned crimson as though on fire. She simply could not control it.

For a moment, everything stalled.

The quiet environment made even the more timid students raise their heads to inspect her.

Everyone stared at her,

And being watched, Zhou Yi felt somewhat ashamed. For the first time, she disliked being the center of attention.

Wang Dong'er had been feeling bored all along. Why was this teacher still not teaching? What exactly was she doing?

"What's wrong with this teacher? Is she sick or something?"

She quietly asked Jiang Mu beside her.

"Mm, I don't know."

As the culprit, how could Jiang Mu possibly admit it?

"Maybe she has fire in her belly."

"What fire?"

"Uh, kids shouldn't ask."

"Tch, acting all mysterious."

Wang Dong'er rolled her eyes coldly. She hated people who kept others in suspense the most!

"Teacher, if you're injured, why not go back and rest? There should be other teachers coming."

Jiang Mu raised his hand and offered the suggestion.

"Yeah, yeah, Teacher, don't force yourself too much."

The concerned voices around her sounded rather piercing in Zhou Yi's ears.

With her face covered in red, she raised her reddened eyes and swept them around. She had originally been very angry, but now she seemed a little soft.

Just as those around her thought the teacher was forcing herself and were about to speak again,

"Hmph. Everyone, be quiet."

With that shout from Zhou Yi, the classroom, which had gradually become noisy, instantly fell silent.

Her voice no longer carried the softness from when she had cried out earlier. It was extremely stern. The students' concerned words stuck in their throats, and they could only wait.

Her eyes swept over everyone before finally settling on Jiang Mu.

As a Soul Emperor, she had heard very clearly. Wang Dong'er might not have understood those words just now, but how could she not?

Could he have some special means of seeing her embarrassment?

"Other than Jiang Mu, all of you stay properly in the classroom. Talk to one another and exchange names, but don't make noise. If anyone reports you, just see how I deal with you."

With that, Zhou Yi directly stomped her high heels and forcibly regained her composure.

"Jiang Mu, come down and follow me."

She raised her chin, signaling for Jiang Mu to come down quickly.

Jiang Mu was somewhat confused. "Oh."

Huo Yuhao beside him wore a shocked expression. Why was she not looking for him?

Wang Dong'er bit her lip. She wanted to pull Jiang Mu back, but recalling his attitude just now, an inexplicable anger instantly rose in her. She snorted coldly and stopped looking at him. It would be better if the teacher expelled him.
