Chapter 63

It was the stairwell again, again, and again.

"Old Li, I didn't break any rules today, did I? Haven't you been calling me out for private chats a bit too frequently lately?"

Qin Tian looked at Li Yanwang with a resentful gaze and said with certainty: "I seriously suspect you're jealous of my good looks and are deliberately retaliating."

Black lines dropped down Li Yanwang's forehead, and he frowned and glared at him: "Straighten out your attitude, stop playing the fool with me!"

"Oh!"

Qin Tian curled his lips helplessly and asked: "You called me out again, what on earth is the matter?"

Thinking of what Xia Nuannuan said on the track field just now, he actually had a guess in his heart, but he still needed to confirm it.

"I won't waste words with you, let me ask you, what's the situation between you and Xia Nuannuan?"

Li Yanwang got straight to the point.

He was no longer used to chatting casually with Qin Tian; he always felt he had none of the teacher's dignity he had when facing other students, which was quite awkward.

"What situation?"

Qin Tian secretly thought, 'Just as I expected,' but on the surface, he played dumb without hesitation.

"It's best if there's no situation. Let me tell you, there are only two months left until the college entrance exam, don't you dare pull any funny business."

Li Yanwang warned with a serious face.

"Old Li, what are you saying? Am I that kind of person? I'm the most law-abiding good student."

Qin Tian said with a straight face.

"Hehe!"

Li Yanwang rolled his eyes and said irritably: "Then you, this 'good student', facing me, your head teacher, calling me 'Old Li' every other word? Didn't I tell you last time?"

Qin Tian grinned: "Doesn't this make us closer and make our teacher-student relationship more harmonious!"

"Look at what you look like, stop giving me that cheeky face!"

"Oh!"

Qin Tian instantly restrained his smile, showing an "I'm a good boy" expression as he looked at him.

Li Yanwang's mouth twitched fiercely a few times, too lazy to say more, and pulled the topic back on track:

"Xia Nuannuan's father called me just now. The general meaning was to ask me to sound a warning to you, and he also had the idea of having me change your seats."

"Hey hey hey, Old Li, you didn't agree, did you?"

Qin Tian became anxious instantly.

"Hmm?"

"I was wrong, Teacher Li."

"I didn't agree, but the parent has already called me, so I can't just do nothing, that's why I called you out to chat a bit."

Old Li said in a serious tone.

"Teacher Li, the relationship between Xia Nuannuan and me is really just a normal classmate and good friend relationship; you and her father are both overthinking it."

Qin Tian guaranteed with a serious face.

Old Li looked straight into his eyes, seemingly wanting to judge something from his eyes and subtle facial changes.

But Qin Tian's eyes were clear and composed.

After all, he wasn't lying.

The relationship between him and Xia Nuannuan was indeed currently just 'more than friends, not yet lovers'.

At least that's how it was for now!

"That's good."

Seeing that he didn't look like he was lying, Li Xueping nodded with satisfaction and said: "I don't care what you do after the college entrance exam, and I'll even bless you, but for these two months, you kid, watch your influence."

"What is all this? I haven't done anything!"

Qin Tian showed a wry expression.

"Haven't done anything? You and Xia Nuannuan are inseparable every day, she brings you lunch at noon, and you go running on the track field together at night; do you think I don't know anything?"

"Cough cough... Old Li, this doesn't violate school rules, right?"

"That's right, it doesn't, but the class atmosphere has been changed by you two, don't you have any idea in your heart?"

"This is a frame-up, it's not true, what atmosphere? How come I can't feel it?"

Qin Tian refused to admit it to the death.

"Alright, alright, anyway, I've said what I needed to say, go back to the classroom!"

Li Xueping waved his hand with a look of disgust.

If he continued to chat with this thick-skinned kid, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to help but swear, ruining his positive image as a people's teacher.

"Oh!"

Qin Tian responded, then, as if changing his face, showed a nearly fawning smile and tentatively asked: "What about the seat change?"

"Disappear in three seconds, or I'll arrange a seat change at the next class meeting."

"Alright, I'm rolling!"

Qin Tian didn't say another word and ran off.

Watching him turn his head and give him a bright smile before entering the classroom, Li Xueping's mouth twitched again, and he almost couldn't hold his expression.

"Did this kid deliberately hide his personality and grades before? How come he's becoming more and more..."

After pondering for a long while, he couldn't find a suitable adjective. Old Li shook his head with a wry smile, turned around with his hands behind his back, and went downstairs.

…………………………………………

"Qin Tian, what did Teacher Li say?"

Xia Nuannuan watched Qin Tian sit down, raised her hand to cover her mouth, and asked in a low voice, unable to wait.

Qin Tian smiled and didn't hide anything, answering: "Your dad really did call."

"Ah?"

Xia Nuannuan exclaimed subconsciously.

In the quiet classroom, the students immediately cast curious gazes.

"Sorry, sorry!"

Xia Nuannuan hurriedly apologized with a sheepish smile.

For Xia Nuannuan, who was becoming more beautiful and cute every day and had a good personality, it was hard for both boys and girls in the class to be angry.

Everyone turned back to continue quietly doing problems, and a few with strong curiosity pricked up their ears, wanting to hear what the two were chatting about.

But without 'clairaudience', it was obviously impossible.

"What did my dad say to Teacher Li?"

Xia Nuannuan asked again in a somewhat urgent tone.

"Nothing much, just meant for Old Li to give me a warning, and he also wanted Old Li to change our seats, but Old Li didn't agree."

Qin Tian said with a smile.

"This Old Xia..."

Xia Nuannuan ground her teeth, pouting.

Before returning to school for evening study, she had already threatened Old Xia with what she considered a very serious tone, telling him not to mess around.

But now it seemed it didn't have much effect.

"Why are you angry? Don't be angry, your dad's move is also normal, it's understandable."

Qin Tian said with a light laugh to comfort her.

Hearing this, Xia Nuannuan looked at him with a surprised gaze.

"A fresh, tender cabbage raised by one's own family for more than ten years has been targeted by a... cough cough, by someone. Anyone would be unable to sit still. If it were me, I might be even more exaggerated."

Qin Tian almost blacked himself, but fortunately, he turned it around in time.

However, Xia Nuannuan had already understood the meaning of the original words, and she covered her mouth, blushing, trying to suppress her laughter.

"Cough cough... I was just using a figurative metaphor."

Qin Tian scratched his head with an awkward expression, wanting to force an explanation.

"I know, pfft..."

Xia Nuannuan nodded, almost unable to hold back a loud laugh.

"Fine, go ahead and laugh!"

Qin Tian sighed helplessly; it would have been better not to explain!

Xia Nuannuan lay on the table, biting her lip hard, emitting uncontrollable low laughter, her shoulders shaking non-stop.

Qin Tian rested his chin on one hand, waiting for her to finish laughing with a melancholy expression, thinking to himself:

Girls who love to laugh never have bad luck!

Hopefully, Xia Nuannuan can share some of her luck with him, so he can smoothly pass the future father-in-law's upcoming test.
