Several gangsters walked slowly towards Yang Xiaowei's dormitory and knocked on the door gently. Yang Xiaowei heard their conversation inside and was trembling with fear.
"You guys leave quickly, or I won't be polite!" Yang Xiaowei said nervously.
"Don't be like this, Teacher Yang, we just want to ask you some questions." The gangster outside smiled playfully.
"You guys should leave quickly. This is a school. If you don't leave, I'll call the police!" Yang Xiaowei said tremblingly.
"Teacher Yang, if you open the door, we just want to make friends with you?" The outside started pounding on the door.
Yang Xiaowei resisted the door. She didn't understand the local situation. Such a situation would not have happened in the village where she lived before. Besides, Principal Yang was very prestigious in that village and no one dared to come to the school to cause trouble.
"What are you doing?" When Yang Xiaowei was desperate, Zhang Tianming's voice sounded outside.
"No, it's okay!" A few gangsters were trying to get away from each other. After all, they were only fourteen or fifteen years old, so they were still scared to see the school teacher.
Yang Xiaowei heard the roar of the motorcycle and knew that they were far away, so she slowly opened the dormitory door.
Zhang Tianming was parking his motorcycle, and Yang Xiaowei walked over sheepishly and said, "Thank you!"
Zhang Tianming didn't look up, nodded, parked the car and returned to the dormitory. Yang Xiaowei was a little at a loss. Zhang Tianming must have stopped talking to her because he rejected him.
Yang Xiaowei didn't want to bring trouble to herself, so she ran back to the dormitory and closed the door.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Xiaowei received several strange text messages.
"Teacher Yang, I like you, can you be my girlfriend!"
"Teacher Yang, you are the goddess in my heart!"
"Teacher Yang is so beautiful, I want to sleep with you!"
Yang Xiaowei looked at the text messages. She didn't know who sent them. The words were frivolous and meant to be teasing.
Yang Xiaowei deleted the text message, but she didn't expect the other party to call her.
"Hey, who are you? You're crazy!" Yang Xiaowei scolded angrily.
"Teacher Yang, I'm the one who knocked on your door just now. I really admire you. I've liked you since the first day you came here!" the other party said with a smile.
"Who are you and how do you know my phone number?" Yang Xiaowei was very panicked.
"Your phone number was given to me by a student in your class. What do you think? Think about it!" the other party continued.
"Get lost!" Yang Xiaowei said loudly and hung up the phone. She felt that this place was full of dangers, and the more she thought about it, the more scared she became.
But today, Zhang Tianming had come back. There were male teachers here, so they probably wouldn't come back again, so she slept peacefully.
The next day was Sunday. As soon as she got up, she saw Zhang Tianming had made breakfast, two bowls of tomato and egg noodles.
Yang Xiaowei hesitated whether to go over and eat. She had nothing but instant noodles, and her stomach was growling with hunger.
"What's wrong? You don't even dare to eat my noodles if you don't want to be my girlfriend? Are you afraid I'll poison you?" Zhang Tianming looked at her with a smile.
"No... no!" Yang Xiaowei said, and walked over bravely. The smell of poached eggs hit her nostrils. Yang Xiaowei couldn't care less about being reserved, raised her face and started to eat hungrily.
"Where were you yesterday? You came back so late!" Yang Xiaowei said.
"I'm going to another school!" Zhang Tianming said.
"Ah? Why go to other schools?" Yang Xiaowei asked curiously.
"I want to pursue you as my girlfriend but you don't agree, so I have to cast my net in other schools!" Zhang Tianming said with a smile.
"Oh, is there any gain in that?" Yang Xiaowei asked hurriedly.
"No, I'm afraid you girls won't like me looking like this!" Zhang Tianming laughed at himself.
Yang Xiaowei smiled. This person was quite self-aware, but she still said: "How is it possible? You don't just like someone based on their appearance!"
"Really? Then you can be my girlfriend!" Zhang Tianming raised his head, looked at her and said.
"Stop it, I will never fall in love or get married in this life!" Yang Xiaowei said hurriedly.
Zhang Tianming looked at her playfully and said with a smile: "You must have been hurt so much to make such a determination!"
Yang Xiaowei stopped answering and concentrated on eating noodles. Suddenly she remembered the harassing phone calls yesterday, took out her mobile phone, and said to Zhang Tianming: "Do you know those little gangsters yesterday?"
"Some of them I know, some of them I don't know. They are all little brats who wandered around the village after finishing junior high school and did not do their jobs properly!" Zhang Tianming said.
"What should we do? Does that mean they will come again in the future? You won't go home on weekends, right?" Yang Xiaowei looked at him and asked.
"That's not necessarily true, it depends on your mood!" Zhang Tianming said.
"Ah? Then it will be miserable for me if you go back!" Yang Xiaowei said distressedly.
"What are you afraid of them doing? Some brats are just paper tigers!" Zhang Tianming said with a smile.
"Why aren't you afraid? They are all hot-blooded young men, and they even said they wanted me to be their girlfriend. What do you think I should do?" Yang Xiaowei said with a pout.
"Then just agree to them. The old cow eats the tender grass, and you make a profit!" Zhang Tianming said, standing up and collecting the bowl.
Yang Xiaowei stood up angrily and punched him, saying, "You're still making fun of me!"
"What I'm telling you is the truth! But those are not adults yet, so you should take it easy, otherwise you will be accused of accidentally abducting minors!" Zhang Tianming burst into laughter.
Yang Xiaowei was not in the mood to joke with him. She sat there helpless. What would she do if Zhang Tianming was not here in the coming weekends?
Go home, this is hundreds of kilometers away from home, go out, she doesn’t know where to go?
Zhang Tianming came over to her, looked at her funny, and said, "How about I give you an idea!"
"What's the idea?" Yang Xiaowei asked hurriedly.
"Just tell them you have a boyfriend, and they promise not to harass you again!" Zhang Tianming said.
"Ah? Is this okay? Will they believe it?" Yang Xiaowei asked with wide eyes.
"They won't believe you if you say anything, but if you say your boyfriend is me, they will definitely believe it!" Zhang Tianming said.
Yang Xiaowei rolled her eyes at Zhang Tianming and said, "Your wishful thinking is really loud!"
"It's fake. Next time someone harasses you, just say that I am your boyfriend, and I will reluctantly pretend!" Zhang Tianming said.
Yang Xiaowei turned around and walked out of the kitchen. Zhang Tianming's thoughts were too obvious. She didn't want to be poor with him anymore. She didn't want to think about relationship matters, not to mention Zhang Tianming's ugly appearance.
At noon, Yang Xiaowei went out to use the toilet and saw several young people sitting near the toilet. When they saw her coming, they whistled to her.
"Beautiful teacher, let's take you to play!" said a boy with dyed yellow hair.
Yang Xiaowei ignored them. It was broad daylight and she didn't dare to do anything to them?
"Beautiful teacher, why are you so rude?" A man came over and stopped her.
"Let go, what are you going to do?" Yang Xiaowei said angrily.
"Beautiful teacher, we just want to make friends with you!" Huang Mao continued.
"Go away!" Yang Xiaowei was angry.
"Oh, the beautiful teacher is so cute when she's angry!" Huang Mao continued to tease, and then reached out to hug Yang Xiaowei.
"Let her go!" Zhang Tianming walked up the school slope and shouted to Huang Mao, "Wang Qiang, I haven't seen you for a few days and you are getting bolder again!"
"Zhang...Teacher Zhang...No, we are joking with this teacher!" Huang Mao smiled and took off his hand.
"Wang Qiang, this is my girlfriend. Why, after three years in junior high school, even the teacher doesn't care about her anymore?" Zhang Tianming continued.
"Oh, teacher, this is your girlfriend. She is so beautiful. I was just joking!" Huang Mao said respectfully.
"You guys should go and do whatever you want, and stop hanging out in the village, otherwise I will take you to report to the village chief!" Zhang Tianming said, putting his arms around Yang Xiaowei.
"I know, Teacher Zhang, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it turned out to be the master's wife. Even if I mess around with her, I will never try to trick her again!" Huang Mao said, and left with a few gangsters.
Yang Xiaowei shook off Zhang Tianming's hand and said, "Who allowed you to say you are my boyfriend?"
"They haven't gone far yet. How about I tell them that we have nothing to do with each other? We are free to love anyway, so let them continue to pursue you!" Zhang Tianming said and was about to call them.
"Don't, don't scream!" Yang Xiaowei said hurriedly.
"Don't worry, I'll pretend to be your boyfriend to keep you safe, and you pretend to be my girlfriend and shut up the other school teachers, otherwise they'd still call me an old bachelor behind my back every day?" Zhang Tianming smiled honestly.
"Old bachelor? How old are you?" Yang Xiaowei laughed.
"I'm a few years older than you. I've chased too many teachers. There's no doubt that I haven't caught up with anyone, and I've ruined my reputation. Let's help each other!" Zhang Tianming said.
"Oh, that's fine, I don't plan on falling in love anyway, so it's good to use you as a shield!" Yang Xiaowei also laughed.
In this way, the two reached a consensus and declared that they were boyfriend and girlfriend outside. Even Principal Li's family was deceived, so that Li Yinxia would not try to help them find partners wherever she went.
"Xiaowei, I really didn't expect that you and Xiao Zhang have developed so fast. It seems that you can have wedding candies this year!" Li Yinxia said with a smile.
"No rush, no rush, just look everywhere first!" Yang Xiaowei was embarrassed by what she said.
"But Xiaowei, although you are in love, you should pay attention to the influence in school. We are dealing with primary school students. Don't do those flirting behaviors." Li Yinxia reminded her.
This is just right, and it will avoid being found to be fake. Yang Xiaowei agrees very much.
Principal Li and his wife had completely different ideas. He quietly asked Zhang Tianming: "Tianming, how are you? Have you succeeded?"
"Brother Li, what did you say?" Zhang Tianming said embarrassedly, "We just started talking!"
"You stupid young man, don't just fall in love foolishly. You have to start when you need to. As long as you get her, her heart will be yours sooner or later!" Principal Li educated him.
Zhang Tianming could only laugh and say: "No rush, no rush!"
Zhang Tianming knew very well that Yang Xiaowei didn't like him, but he liked Yang Xiaowei. That kind of liking was not love at first sight, nor was it something that she had to like.
However, in these years, wherever there were single female teachers, he chased them, but no one liked him. However, this school finally got a young single female teacher. He felt that it was God's gift to him. He must win, otherwise if he misses this village, he will not have this store.
His age no longer allows him to find his true love. If he can't find a partner again, he will have to go back to the village to find an illiterate rural woman. He doesn't want to. After all, he is also a college student and has a job. At work, he was unwilling to marry an illiterate woman.
In his heart, he envied Principal Li and his wife. They were both teachers. They worked together, rested together, and traveled during holidays. They were very equal in terms of status and status, and no one had to rely on the other. This was what he yearned for.
If he is willing to find a rural woman without a job, it will be too easy for him. How many people in the village want to marry him, after all, he is providing an iron rice bowl.
He was very grateful to those few gangsters for making Yang Xiaowei scared, and he was able to take the opportunity to pretend to be boyfriend and girlfriend with her. He believed that as long as he paid silently, Yang Xiaowei would be moved one day.
He felt that what Principal Li said was not feasible. Yang Xiaowei should be a relatively independent woman. Even if he got her by means, she would not live with him with peace of mind.
Every weekend after that, Zhang Tianming began to drive Yang Xiaowei to the market and to find friends in other schools. Everyone at school knew that Yang Xiaowei and Zhang Tianming were getting along, and Yang Xiaowei didn't explain. Because of this, she avoided a lot of trouble. .
Since Principal Yang became the principal, he has been completely free. He will retire next year, and the school has arranged some minor subjects for him. He is also happy to have some leisure time. After school, he goes to Xu Guoqing's house for a drink.
Duan Yu stopped drinking since he married Xu Caifeng. He was afraid that he would lose his beloved because of drunkenness.
However, Principal Yang came today. In order to inquire about Yang Xiaowei's current situation, he took the initiative to pour Principal Yang a glass of wine and drank with him.
"Duan Yu, you will be a father soon, and I will be an uncle too. I am so happy!" Principal Yang said.
"Yes, uncle, it's a pity that you don't become the principal, otherwise our children will have to be sent to you for education in the future!" Duan Yu agreed.
"I don't have any regrets. I'm going to retire next year anyway. Hey, this incident is all because it's hard for Yang Xiaowei!" Principal Yang sighed and took a sip of wine.
"What's so hard about it? People always have to pay for their own mistakes!" Duan Yu said hypocritically.
"That's right. I thought she might cry as a little girl going to such a remote place, but I didn't expect that Principal Li said she already had a boyfriend!" Principal Yang said with a smile.
"Boyfriend? What boyfriend?" Duan Yu asked casually.
"I've also heard that it's good to have the same teacher in their school. This way we can take care of each other, and I don't have to worry about her anymore!" Principal Yang said.
Duan Yu felt pain in his heart. Yang Xiaowei had a boyfriend so soon. He originally wanted to divorce after Caifeng gave birth to the child, but it seemed that he had no chance.
Yang Damei came over, heard Principal Yang's words, and said contemptuously: "That woman is a disaster, she can't stay idle anywhere!"
When Duan Yu heard Yang Damei's words, he felt even more unhappy, stood up and left.
"Who are you showing off to? As soon as I heard about Yang Xiaowei, my eyes went straight!" Yang Damei continued to curse.
Duan Yu ignored her and walked out of the house. Principal Yang glared at Yang Damei and said, "You should be polite to Duan Yu. Everyone has self-respect. He can just live a good life with Caifeng!"
"His heart is not with Caifeng at all. If I don't sound the alarm for him, he will not be able to go to heaven!" Yang Damei said dissatisfied.
