Chapter 5, Teacher, I am here to protect you
Thus, with trepidation, Lin Chuxia pressed the answer button and heard Bai Shijiu's furious roar—"Lin Chuxia, you heartless person with no regard for the opposite sex!"
At the very moment when Lin Chuxia was running with abandon, the girls who had originally intended to catch her did not pause for a moment and instantly caught up with her
In fact, she was not angry; she was just deliberately trying to scare Lin Chuxia a little.
Teacher, I am here to protect you
Her face turned red! Bai Shijiu immediately cast a flirtatious glance and asked, "Are you really together?"
Bai Shijiu furrowed his brows slightly upon hearing this and speculated, "Could it be An Jiemo?"
The newly opened restaurant has a signature dish - King Crab Rice
Eventually, it will leave Gu Jiu You impoverished!" Bai Shijiu scoffed.
However, when the phone suddenly rang and she saw the three characters "Bai Shijiu," Lin Chuxia exclaimed, "It's over! I forgot about Shijiu!"
Bai Shijiu did not lift his head and retorted, "What am I going there for?"
The man had an outstanding appearance, someone who could easily catch one's eye. Suddenly, he stood up abruptly, his voice filled with anger, saying: "I was originally cast as the lead role in this script, why have you suddenly relegated me to the second male lead without my consent!"
Shaking her head, Bai Shijiu had no intention of bringing Lin Chuxia back, as she knew that if she did not let her learn a lesson, Lin might never understand how serious this matter was, even until her death. As Bai Shijiu re-engaged in online gaming, she still harbored some concerns, after all, Lin Chuxia had a relatively low intelligence in this regard.
Gu Jiu You
Lin Chuxia furrowed her brows inexplicably
This matter has escalated to such a degree, and it has even been labeled as a scandal of a teacher-student relationship; the department head will surely confront her
Gu Jiuyao chuckled lightly and said, "The work phone ran out of battery, so I used my personal phone to call you."
He has practically ascended to the status of the leader of various factions, such as the Peach Blossom Sect, Nightclub Sect, and Miss Sect, and he is involved in all of them! Even Lin Chuxia, who rarely pays attention to the entertainment industry, has heard a bit about it!
She is probably going to be expelled
After finding a seat by the window, Lin Chuxia ordered two servings of King Crab Rice for herself
However, Lin Chuxia did not think much of it; having always lived in a daze without any scheming, how could she possibly consider so many things
However, when Lin Chuxia decided to stay in the dormitory and not go out to face these matters anymore, a piece of explosive news regarding An Jiemo suddenly emerged. A third-rate star, who originally seemed to have no chance, unexpectedly caught An Jiemo's favor
For the first time in my life, I made the headlines, and the reason was actually Gu Jiu You
Moreover, the vice principal stated that if this matter cannot be properly resolved, then Lin Chuxia will have no choice but to withdraw from school
As they spoke, the waiter brought out the King Crab Rice that Lin Chuxia had been eagerly anticipating. Before the waiter could set the dish down properly, Lin Chuxia eagerly grabbed her chopsticks and took it for herself
Lin Chuxia turned the mechanical head and suddenly saw something—wasn't Gu Jiuyou sitting across from her!
Upon arriving at the school gate, Bai Shijiu was looking down, kicking the small stones on the ground, appearing extremely bored. Lin Chuxia hurriedly jogged up from behind, startling her, and then the two of them playfully chatted as they left the school.
After Bai Shijiu's teasing subsided, Lin Chuxia was met with the "mockery" of the waiter. She immediately shot a resentful glare at Bai Shijiu and said, "Being able to eat is a blessing!"
"Alright." Bai Shijiu thought for a moment and agreed. However, she did not genuinely intend to protect Lin Chuxia; rather, she wanted to see if that person was An Jiemo.
However, the other party did not mention who they were; Lin Chuxia was very familiar with the voice but could not recall the identity of the person. The other party only provided an address and then said, "Come over as soon as possible," before quickly hanging up the phone.
Lin Chuxia directly ignored her disdain, as the deliciousness of the crab king rice made her exclaim: "So delicious!"
"Those with intelligence can remember. " Gu Jiuyou started the car and left the place of disputes, "In the past, in order to take the English proficiency test at level 8, I memorized a lot of vocabulary. What is so strange about remembering your phone number?"
Bai Jiu's mouth kept moving as he spoke a great deal without even taking a deep breath. After finishing, he was in a daze for two seconds, and then Lin Chuxia suddenly jumped up from the bed: "Jiu, what did you say?"
Gu Jiu You furrowed his brow, and Lin Chuxia thought he was going to refuse, but she saw him turn at the intersection ahead.
Although Lin Chuxia found Gu Jiuyou's theory quite strange, wondering what connection there could be between the English words at the professional level 8 and her phone number, and how he managed to make that connection... Nevertheless, since Gu Jiuyou's tone was still relatively gentle and he could recite her mobile number... Lin Chuxia decided to hold her tongue for the time being
However, the teacher's voice at school is rather too magnetic, isn't it
Bai Shijiu deliberately responded with a detached cold smile: "I thought you hadn't eaten all day."
After meeting Lin Chuxia, the head teacher hardly gave her any time to speak, launching into a barrage of reprimands. It seemed as if everything had turned into Lin Chuxia's fault, as if it was her wrongdoing, as if she had acted with intent, and Lin Chuxia did not even have the opportunity to refute.
Yesterday, Gu Jiu You called me and asked me to come over. As a result, he was being splashed with water by someone. In my excitement, I rushed forward... Isn't it the students' responsibility to protect the teacher's reputation?" Lin Chuxia held her phone and briefly recounted what happened yesterday. "What should I do now? I really don't want to make headlines. If I go out like this, people will probably look at me like I'm a gorilla, right?"
An Jiamei, upon hearing that Lin Chuxia was going to find Gu Jiuyou, fell silent for a moment before saying: "Go ahead, you might have unexpected gains."
It was only then that Lin Chuxia realized that if she were to make headlines, then...
Oh, shouldn't it be Li Jiangyi and Gu Jiuyou making headlines tomorrow? What does she have to do with it?
This made Lin Chuxia even more frustrated
What happened? Bai Shijiu swallowed the food in his mouth and asked, "Who is it?"
While she was pondering what to do, Lin Chuxia's phone rang. In a flurry, she picked up the phone and saw it was An Jiemo, so she quickly answered, "Jiemo, why have I made the headlines?"
Lin Chuxia did not expect that just as she had stepped out of the dormitory, she would suddenly find herself surrounded by several girls with fierce expressions.
Indeed
"I am sorry, my dear!" Lin Chuxia immediately apologized, "I didn't mean to, I just don't know how I forgot about you..."
Lin Chuxia's face fell; she had no idea it would turn out this way. If she had known, she would have simply let Gu Jiuyou be beaten by someone else. "No, I must go find Gu Jiuyou; he must have seen it too."
Indeed! Lin Chuxia deliberately admitted, but then changed the subject and said, "Let's write the script together"
Unforgivable! Bai Shijiu roared and hung up the phone
Lin Chuxia was sleeping in her dormitory. Upon hearing that it was time to eat, she rubbed her eyes and replied, "Wait for me a moment, I will change my clothes and come to find you."
Congratulations, you became an overnight sensation last night!" Bai Shijiu rolled his eyes and tossed the phone over, "You take a look yourself!"
"Nineteen, I'm heading out first." Lin Chuxia said as she grabbed her coat and opened the door. Bai Shijiu had already lifted her head when she saw Lin Chuxia finish her call, and just as she was about to speak, she noticed that Lin Chuxia completely ignored her and left. Bai Shijiu shrugged helplessly and muttered, "Lin Chuxia, aren't you afraid of being beaten to death by Gu Jiuyou's fans when you go out..."
Lin Chuxia leaned in slightly to take a closer look, and realized that this man was none other than Li Jiangyi, who had recently been embroiled in negative news
Is Gu Jiuyao handsome? ... Alright, he is handsome, so this screenwriter mentor must have ... followers. Yes, Lin Chuxia remembered that at that time, there were some girls in the class who seemed to harbor some resentment towards her because she had become Gu Jiuyao's apprentice.
Before Lin Chuxia could finish her thoughts, Li Jiangyi suddenly swung his fist. In that split second, Lin Chuxia rolled over, maneuvering through the decorative plants in the store, and caught Li Jiangyi's fist with one hand. Reacting faster than her mind could process, Lin Chuxia swiftly grabbed his arm and executed a shoulder throw.
Just as Lin Chuxia and Bai Shijiu were happily enjoying a delicious dinner at the restaurant, Lin Chuxia's phone suddenly rang, displaying an unrecorded unknown number
How did this person end up here
Lin Chuxia was almost lost in the school while being chased by a group of girls behind her. Fortunately, she had been called to Gu Jiuyou's office more than once, so after taking a long detour, she finally managed to shake off a string of followers and plunged into Gu Jiuyou's office.
As expected, just as Lin Chuxia returned to her dormitory and had not yet had the chance to speak with Bai Shijiu, another classmate informed her that the vice principal was looking for her, prompting her to hurry over without delay
Gu Jiu You, who had been silent all along, finally stood up at this moment, grabbed the coat hanging behind him, and tossed it onto Lin Chuxia's head, saying, "I won't take responsibility if this makes the headlines tomorrow"
However, Bai Shijiu could see that Gu Jiuyou's relationship with Lin Chuxia was far from a simple teacher-student dynamic. But it seems that Lin Chuxia is completely unaware of this. I wonder how her screenwriting mentor, Gu Jiuyou, will react to this situation.
On Wednesday evening, as soon as Bai Shijiu finished class, he called Lin Chuxia and asked her: "Lin Chuxia, are you at school? Would you like to go to that newly opened restaurant for dinner together?"
I don't know. Lin Chuxia stuffed a mouthful of rice into her mouth and said, "They only mentioned an address, told me to hurry over, and hung up without even saying their name. Moreover, I didn't even have a chance to speak.
No wonder Gu Jiuyou decided to replace the male lead at the last minute. If the male lead has a lot of negative news, it will also affect the production itself, and media reports will significantly undermine the new drama.
The general content is as follows: Gu Jiuyou was violently assaulted by a male actor, and his girlfriend stood up for him, leading to the exposure of their relationship. It is suspected that his girlfriend comes from a prestigious martial arts family. Additionally, Gu Jiuyou rejected a certain woman, revealing that he has someone he cares about. Even more sensational is the news of a student-teacher relationship at Guangwei Academy, where the prominent screenwriter Gu Jiuyou has fallen in love with his assistant ... and so on with the headlines.
Although Lin Chuxia breathed a sigh of relief, she was still very puzzled as to why there would be such strange news at this time
Yes. Lin Chuxia chuckled, "But who knows if he might have two numbers"
Upon finishing his words, the entire restaurant was abuzz, as many recognized Li Jiangyi and Gu Jiuyou, taking numerous photos with their phones to upload to Weibo
Bai Shijiu remained silent, quietly eating his meal
Unexpectedly, upon hearing Lin Chuxia say this, An Jiemo on the other end of the phone instead burst into laughter, gleefully saying: "Now you can experience what it feels like to be a star when going out. Let's see if you dare to be so impulsive in the future!"
At this moment, Lin Chuxia's clumsy mind finally reacted. The script being mentioned wouldn't be a script for filming, would it? ... And the male lead and the second male lead wouldn't be from a television drama ...? ... right? So that man is a male actor?
As Bai Shijiu's hoarse voice pierced through Lin Chuxia's eardrums, she was engaged in a fierce battle with Zhou Gong, having fought for three hundred rounds. In her dazed state, she absentmindedly scratched her hair while mumbling incoherently, "What headline..."
The other party's Anjie Mo fell silent for a moment before replying: "I was just about to ask you."
On the computer screen that Bai Shijiu was using, the title of the hottest and latest post on their school's forum was prominently displayed: "Defeating the Female Student Who Defamed Mentor Gu Jiuyao's Innocence - Lin Chuxia"
Lin Chuxia was puzzled, but Bai Shijiu felt relieved: fortunately, it was not An Jiemo.
Ha!
"I don't know," Lin Chuxia shook her head, "but the voice doesn't sound like him. It feels... it feels like it might be Gu Jiuyou."
The number was unfamiliar to her; generally, she would not answer such calls. However, the phone rang for a long time, even catching the attention of Bai Shijiu, who turned to look. Reluctantly, she finally answered the call
What does it have to do with him! Indeed, it has nothing to do with him, but Lin Chuxia suddenly recalled the last time he teased her about having a figure resembling that of an elementary school student, and her face instantly flushed red, a mix of anger and embarrassment.
Gu Jiu You glanced at her upon hearing the words, but did not speak
Bai Shijiu beside her, like the waiter, was looking at her with a peculiar gaze. Lin Chuxia immediately explained: "I haven't eaten lunch!"
However, after the words were spoken, Lin Chuxia realized that the office was empty.
So, ladies, are you blocking me for a reason? What do you intend to do? Lin Chuxia's gaze deepened; although the ladies did not make any moves, she still sensed a powerful aura of hostility.
Ah, negative news
With such thoughts in mind, Lin Chuxia and Bai Shijiu arrived at the location mentioned by the other party. As soon as they stepped through the door, they were met with a shocking scene
Lin Chuxia, you have made the headlines
However, Lin Chuxia, who was completely blinded by her fervor, did not notice this at all and was still passionately saying: "Those who blame others for their own mistakes and resort to violence to protect their own interests are simply scum."
After finishing the conversation, An Jiemo hung up the phone. Lin Chuxia on this side was left in a state of confusion
This person must be harming her
Lin Chuxia widened her eyes and unconsciously raised her voice: "Have you memorized my phone number?"
At this moment, Gu Jiuyou, who had just been splashed with a face full of ice water, cast a cold glance at the man, allowing the ice water to drip down his face: "I had indeed made up my mind to have you play the male lead, but your recent negative news has been rather excessive. The director and I had no choice but to replace you with the male second role."
When the name "An Jiemo" was mentioned, Bai Shijiu's face was filled with tension, his gaze fixed intently on Lin Chuxia, fearing that he might miss any expression on her face.
For a moment, the news about An Jiemo overshadowed the negative news regarding Gu Jiuyou. Those who had been pursuing Lin Chuxia for an explanation suddenly shifted their focus to An Jiemo, and for a time, no one mentioned the matters concerning Gu Jiuyou and Lin Chuxia.
Lin Chuxia nervously picked up her phone, lowering her head to look at the images on Weibo, capturing the moment she bravely jumped towards Gu Jiuyou, as well as the image of Gu Jiuyou covering her head with his coat
Do you not have his number
02
Crab, Lin Chuxia's favorite. She has been wanting to have a meal with this King Crab rice for a long time, but unfortunately, ever since she became Gu Jiuyou's assistant, she has been particularly busy, so busy that she doesn't even have time to eat with Bai Shijiu.
She originally wanted to find Gu Jiu You to prove her innocence, but he never answered her calls and did not even show up... It seemed as if he had given up on her, showing no intention of helping her at all
After arriving at the office of the Director of Education, Lin Chuxia gently knocked on the door. Upon hearing a response, she pushed the door open and entered.
Upon hearing this, Bai Shijiu unceremoniously shot her a disdainful glance.
At this moment, she was simply grateful for Gu Jiuyao's thoughtfulness, grateful for God's favor—finally free from the danger of being violently beaten by Bai Shijiu upon returning to the dormitory
Hello?" Lin Chuxia answered the phone in confusion, her voice muffled as her mouth was full of food.
However, Lin Chuxia was truly frightened. She hurriedly grabbed Gu Jiuyou's clothing corner and said, "Instructor Gu, can we go back and bring along my classmate from Class 19 whom I forgot?"
Am I being overly sentimental by myself?
Last night, Lin Chuxia accidentally stayed up late, and as a result, she slept through the afternoon nap until this time, just in time for dinner. Woken up, Lin Chuxia lost her drowsiness and quickly got out of bed, swiftly changed her clothes, and went out.
Protect me! Lin Chuxia said with conviction, "What if it isn't Gu Jiuyou?"
As Lin Chuxia emerged from the office of the Director of Education, the sky had gradually darkened. She walked silently along the wooded path of Guangwei Academy.
"Was it really you who called me to come here?" Lin Chuxia, who poked her head out from her coat, said in surprise, "But this phone number isn't yours at all!"
Upon seeing this, Bai Shijiu made a face of disdain, silently distancing himself, and did not forget to emphasize to the waiter, saying: "Actually, I do not know her."
Seeing that Bai Jiu was silent, Lin Chuxia poked her arm and asked, "Jiu, would you like to go with me?"
After realizing the situation, Lin Chuxia squinted her eyes, took a deep breath, and ran wildly without looking back, heading straight for Gu Jiuyou's office. What a joke, if she didn't use this life-saving talisman to go to Gu Jiuyou's office, these girls would surely tear her apart.
After bringing Lin Chuxia out of the restaurant and into the car, Gu Jiuyou let out a deep sigh: "If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have let you come. It is not a good thing for you to make the news."
Near the door, a man with a friendly appearance was splashing water in another person's face with a cup, and Lin Chuxia just happened to catch the cup that the other person had thrown down.
01
Suddenly, the phone rang, it was a call from the class monitor, stating that the head teacher was looking for her
He originally intended to have a nice date with her, but due to this unexpected turn of events, he lost his mood. Moreover, he had just noticed that many people were taking photos of them and posting them on Weibo. Unless something unexpected happens, they would likely be the headline the next day, so he also had to take immediate action for public relations.
Knowing what she would face next, Lin Chuxia could not help but darken her expression
Subsequently, several school leaders have approached her for discussions, and the content of these discussions is largely similar, all revolving around Gu Jiu You. What leaves Lin Chuxia speechless is that everyone blames her for this matter, and even though Bai Shijiu has been continuously helping her explain and testify on her behalf, no one believes her
When I received that call, I did not have the thought of wanting to go, but the voice on the other end was very familiar. After thinking it over, the people I had recently interacted with were none other than Gu Jiu You, An Jie Mo, and the school teachers. I have saved the phone numbers of Gu Jiu You and An Jie Mo, could it be a school teacher?
03
Lin Chuxia, who was so exhausted that she could barely lift her head, no longer cared about her appearance. She plopped down onto the nearby sofa, gasping for breath as she said: "Honor... Mentor, you... you must take responsibility for me!"
