Chapter 55 (1/2)
The sudden sound of someone speaking caused Sun Mo and the two others to turn their heads.
Under the orange glow of the setting sun, An Xinhui stood in the forest. The night wind that gusted over from the lake caused the corners of her robes to flutter.
Due to over-exhaustion, An Xinhui’s skin was pale and her figure was a little skinny. However, her gaze was as sharp as ever.
Sun Mo smiled. This was the look of a successful career woman.
The sharpness in An Xinhui’s eyes flashed and disappeared. After that, her large eyes where the shades of white and black were distinct became filled with gentleness. She automatically showed approachability, causing people who looked at her to feel an extremely favorable impression of her.
The first reaction of Lu Zhiruo when she saw Yue Rongbo was fear and respect. And now when she saw An Xinhui, it was one of amicability. She felt like she had met an elder female neighbor who was smiling at her gently, asking her if she wanted to eat pineapple sweets together!
“How classy!”
Sun Mo involuntarily praised.
An Xinhui’s beauty would make it so that if she entered the entertainment industry, she wouldn’t need acting skills and only needed to be a vase. Many males would be happy enough to reach in their wallets to purchase movie tickets just for a glance at her. Even if they needed to pee, they would rather hold it in than to miss any of her scenes.
Her demeanor was even more outstanding. It was those types of demeanors that would cause people to forget her beauty and notice her demeanor.
Simply speaking, An Xinhui’s aura was immensely strong.
One must know that Yue Rongbo was a 4-star teacher, and his aura was very strong too. But when An Xinhui appeared, it was like the voice of the guest overwhelmed that of the host. It caused everyone to involuntarily pay attention to only her.
An Xinhui no longer spoke. She looked at Sun Mo, surveying this childhood sweetheart of hers whom she had not met for many years.
He was much taller. Maybe it was because he just graduated, but she could still see the underripe look on his face. His fingers were lanky, and his nails were clean. He wore the light-blue robe for intern teachers and there were no creases on it. Just from a look, she could tell that he was a man that cared about details.
“Headmaster An!”
Sun Mo spoke. His lips curled lightly as a fresh, sunshine-like aura instantly emitted forth.
“Ah, he must have practiced this smile for 6 months or more!”
An Xinhui guessed. She couldn’t control it and felt like laughing, but the expression on her face didn’t change.
Yue Rongbo was naturally acquainted with An Xinhui. Hence, his brows began to furrow.
There were no solutions to this. When it came to the snatching of talented men, a beautiful great teacher had a natural advantage. In addition, An Xinhui was extremely famous and had several halos of glory.
Other than her great teacher’s level being inferior to him and the Central Province Academy had declined and was insufficiently qualified, An Xinhui had no other shortcomings.
“I hope Sun Mo isn’t a shallow man who wouldn’t leave just because of a beautiful woman.”
Yue Rongbo muttered to himself. After that, he stepped forth and started his attack. “Headmaster An is so idle. Why don’t you enjoy the scenery together with us?”
Yue Rongbo’s words sounded relaxed but if An Xinhui’s reply was incautious, she would be expressing a negative image where she wasn’t serious about her work. One must know that today was still the student recruitment meet. The busiest person should be the headmaster.
“My teacher is about to be poached away. I naturally have to come and stop it!”
Yet, An Xinhui couldn’t be bothered to cross swords verbally. She went straight to the point.
Yue Rongbo frowned. An Xinhui was truly like what the rumors said, she wasn’t easy to deal with. No wonder Headmaster Cao of the Myriad Daos Academy had to employ him.
According to what Headmaster Cao said, if it wasn’t for An Xinhui taking over the Central Province Academy, this school would have long since been removed from the list due to his suppression, vanishing into history.
“Hehe, the Central Academy Province has already declined. You guys are ranked at the bottom of the ‘D’ grade. After this year’s league tournament concludes, if you guys are still at the bottom, your school would directly be removed from the list. Rather than letting Teacher Sun waste his talent here, why don’t you let him follow me to the Myriad Daos Academy, creating brand new heaven and earth there?”
Yue Rongbo retaliated. At the same time, he cast a glance at Sun Mo.
An Xinhui’s words, be it whether they were sincere or not, had expressed her high regard for Sun Mo and her recognition for him. If it was another guy here instead of Sun Mo, that person would surely feel a little proud and complacent. After all, he had obtained the high regard of a beautiful headmaster.
However, Yue Rongbo discovered that Sun Mo’s expression was so calm that it was as though they were the canteen aunties asking him what he wanted for breakfast. There were no fluctuations at all.
Sun Mo’s lips twitched. Yue Rongbo’s words were truly filled with killing intent.
“Bottom-ranked? Removed from the list? Sir, as a 4-star great teacher and an extremely popular character in the great teacher circle, you didn’t want to go to any of the ‘A’ grade schools or one of the Nine Greats. Weren’t you headhunted by Headmaster Cao to deal with my Central Province Academy?”
An Xinhui retorted sarcastically.
“Haha, Headmaster Cao overestimates your Central Academy Province too much.”
Yue Rongbo laughed loudly. Although the truth was this, he would not admit to it.
“Speaking of creating brand new heaven and earth, I remember that Headmaster Cao’s greatest wish is to make the Myriad Daos Academy rise to the ‘A’ grade. As for my Central Province Academy, our greatest wish is to return to the rankings of the Nine Greats.”
An Xinhui spoke frankly with assurance, “Is there anything more legendary than leading a school that has declined back into the ranks of the Nine Greats?”
“How awesome!”
Yue Rongbo silently praised. An Xinhui’s debating skills were very outstanding. Also, when she was speaking, her points were clear and arranged properly. She involuntary shifted the topic toward an area that was advantageous for her.
“If Sun Mo could achieve this point, he would definitely leave behind a heavy brushstroke in the history of the great teacher circle. His statue would also stand tall and upright in the school, and he would be revered by students of countless generations.
An Xinhui stated.
“Very grand ambitions. But the prerequisite is that it must be possible to accomplish!”
Yue Rongbo sneered. He didn’t dare to think about such a thing.
“Oh? Are you saying you don’t believe in Sun Mo?”
An Xinhui immediately found a loophole and launched her attack.
“Eh!”
