An Xinhui was like a wild cat that had discovered her dried fish being snatched away. The hair on her body instantly tensed up, and her little canine teeth were revealed.
Ying Baiwu sneaked a glance at Sun Mo and discovered that his expression was calm. It was as though the canteen auntie was asking him what he wanted to eat for breakfast.
One must know that this was the recruitment of a 4-star great teacher!
In the entire Central Province Academy, the number of people who had received this honor could be counted on two hands.
"I'm sorry!"
Sun Mo tactfully rejected.
"My heavens!"
Seeing that Sun Mo didn't hesitate at all and rejected directly, the school leaders were even more shocked. Was this guy a fool?
To most teachers, joining the team of a 4-star great teacher was something they yearned for but couldn't ask for. Moreover, the benefits would be too great.
Putting aside the other benefits, just one point was that with Wang Su as his backing, if Zhang Hanfu wanted to touch Sun Mo again, he'd have to think twice before doing so. Also, he'd have to do it openly and wouldn't use such underhanded methods. If not, the wrath of a 4-star great teacher would be enough to make him badly battered.
Hearing Sun Mo's reply, An Xinhui secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
"Can you tell me the reason?"
Wang Su was curious. Even though he was rejected, he didn't feel angry or unhappy at all. On the contrary, he admired Sun Mo even more.
Look at Sun Mo's composure. He wasn't happy with material gains or sorrowful. From the start to the end, he remained calm and collected.
Just like earlier, when he was being questioned by Yang Cai and Ying Tie, how many people would be able to remain as calm and composed as him?
Although Sun Mo wasn't a great teacher, he already had the demeanor of a great teacher.
"I just don't want to be restrained!"
Sun Mo's lips twitched. This kind of life where no one cared about him was simply too awesome. Why did he have to find a major character to suppress him?
Although Wang Su's thigh was thick and sturdy enough, he still had to be respectful when he met him, right? He would have to greet him from time to time, right?
Sun Mo didn't want such a life!
Hearing this answer, the school leaders didn't believe it. They glanced at An Xinhui. Sun Mo should be doing this for her. After all, the two headmasters were enemies.
There was no solution to it. An Xinhui was so beautiful, and many men wouldn't be able to get close to her even if they wanted to be a bootlicker.
It was a pity that these people had the wrong idea. Sun Mo did this for his freedom, and it had nothing to do with An Xinhui.
"For his freedom? Tsk, this is a luxury item! "
Wang Su smiled. He walked up to Sun Mo and patted his shoulder. "If you change your mind, you can come and look for me at any time!"
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Wang Su + 5. Neutral (8/100).
Hiss!
These words caused everyone to involuntarily draw in a cold breath. Wang Su really admired Sun Mo!
"Alright!"
Sun Mo nodded and brought Ying Baiwu away from the office. Everyone didn't say anything. They stared at his back view as they sank into contemplation.
After a long while, it was the dean who sighed with emotion.
"He actually refused?"
Yang Pu's voice was filled with disbelief. It was as if he had seen an extremely ugly woman rejecting the courtship of a peerlessly handsome man!
"Hehe!"
An Xinhui smiled. She didn't feel that it was strange because she thought of Yue Rongbo. That person was also a 4-star great teacher. Moreover, before Sun Mo displayed the potential of 'God Hands', Yue Rongbo had already paid a great price to headhunt him.
However, Sun Mo still didn't go.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's start to discuss how to deal with Yang Cai!" Wang Su swept his gaze around. "Go and call Zhang Hanfu back!"
Not long after Lian Zheng brought Yang Cai away, Zhang Hanfu had used the excuse of urinating to escape and hadn't returned until now.
...
In the corridor, Ying Baiwu's heart was filled with worries.
"If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I'm your teacher now!"
Sun Mo slowed down his footsteps.
"Why did you reject that great teacher?"
Because of Ying Baiwu's experiences since young, her personality was very straightforward. She wouldn't beat around the bush.
"I said it was because of freedom."
Sun Mo explained.
"Freedom?"
Ying Baiwu didn't understand.
"Freedom means that you can do what you want and live the life you want. Teacher Wang isn't wrong. It's really a luxury item."
If Sun Mo didn't have strength and couldn't get his current status and salary, let alone freedom, he would have long since packed up and scurried around the streets looking for a job with a bitter look on his face.
Ying Baiwu mumbled this term. Gradually, her eyes brightened.
"Why are you working so hard?"
Sun Mo counter-asked.
"It's so that I can eat well and wear well so that others won't dare to look down on me!"
This was the truth.
Ying Baiwu's straightforwardness caused Sun Mo to click his tongue.
"What about teacher?"
Ying Baiwu's eyes opened wide. She didn't know why, but she felt that she had a common topic with her teacher. Also, his words were very philosophical.
"I'm working so hard because I want them to be unhappy with me after I've rebuked others. However, they can't do anything to me and can only hold it in!"
Sun Mo laughed.
"Eh!"
Ying Baiwu was astonished. What the hell was this reply? (So, teacher has such a bad taste?)
...
Yang Cai's actions were too shameless and had completely incurred the wrath of everyone. In less than ten minutes, the punishment for him was decided.
After investigating all the evidence of his crimes, he would be confiscated and fined. After that, he would be sent to the Darkness Continent to mine for the rest of his life, never to return to Middle-Earth.
Borrowing this opportunity, An Xinhui and Wang Su also came to an agreement. They were prepared to join forces to suppress Zhang Hanfu and weaken his strength.
If they allowed Zhang Hanfu to continue messing around, the Central Province Academy's reputation would be ruined before it was delisted.
The meeting ended.
After exiting the office, Yang Pu quickened his steps and caught up to Wang Su. "Teacher Wang, may I be so presumptuous as to ask something? What do you like about that girl?"
The other leaders also looked over, their curiosity bursting to the max.
"I just admire her character!"
Wang Su explained. But in truth, this wasn't the case. That girl gave him an indescribable feeling. He had experienced this feeling ten years ago in the Darkness Continent, and it was still fresh in his memory.
Because at that time, Wang Su was just a fine line away from death. If it wasn't for his luck being off the charts, he would have long since become fertilizer for the plants in the darkness continent.
...
Ding.
"Congratulations, your prestige connection with An Xinhui has reached 'friendly'. Reward: 1x black-iron treasure chest!"
The system notification resounded in his ears.
Sun Mo kept the treasure chest and asked about Ying Baiwu's family situation. After learning that she had a mother, he immediately returned to his dorm and took out 500 taels of silver, passing it to her.
"Take it. Rent a new house and settle your mother there. Don't contact your father for now."
Sun Mo had seen people who treated gambling as their lives. Every time they lost all their money, they would say that they must change and even chop off their hands to show their determination. But in the end, the majority of them would return to the gambling table and wait for a comeback.
If Ying Baiwu and her mother followed that man, they would be throwing away their entire lives.
"Mn!"
Ying Baiwu received the silver with both hands without any hesitation or shyness.
Sun Mo smiled. He admired this girl's decisive character. He couldn't help but stretch out his hand, wanting to rub Ying Baiwu's head.
However, Ying Baiwu subconsciously tilted her head and dodged.
"Go on, I'll give you three days to tidy up your household matters. After that, I'll officially start teaching you!"
After Sun Mo spoke, he went to look for Lu Zhiruo. If he wanted to open the treasure chest, it wouldn't do without the papaya girl to boost his luck.
Ying Baiwu bent her waist and bowed. Her entire body bent 90 degrees until Sun Mo's figure disappeared at the end of the street. Only after a total of five minutes did she straighten her back.
The afternoon sunlight was somewhat piercing to the eyes.
However, Ying Baiwu didn't despise it. She inclined her head and stared at the sky. This was the first time she discovered that the blue sky and white clouds were actually so beautiful!
"Thank you, Teacher Sun!"
Ying Baiwu mumbled. She couldn't control her tears anymore and they flowed out.
She had long since despaired and even planned to commit suicide to end everything. However, she didn't expect that Sun Mo already had a way to deal with that Yang Cai.
Moreover, she could finally be far away from her father and could even enter the Central Province Academy for free. This was simply like a dream.
Bang!
Ying Baiwu smashed her fist into the parasol tree at the side, revealing a resolute expression. Since the heavens had given her a chance and she had obtained a new set of cards, she had to play her cards well!
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Ying Baiwu + 100. Friendly (230/1,000).
...
The sudden notification caused Sun Mo to jump in fright. It was because this number was simply too great.
"You changed Ying Baiwu's fate. This is the reward you deserve!"
The system explained.
Ding!
"You saved a student, allowing her to regain her confidence in life. You have completed the achievement 'Saving a Student'. Special reward: 1x golden treasure chest."
A golden and dazzling treasure chest appeared before Sun Mo, almost blinding his dog eyes.
This was truly an unexpected joy!
Sun Mo helped Ying Baiwu out of righteousness, but he didn't expect that he would obtain a personal disciple and three treasure chests. He even got rid of the detestable Yang Cai. This caused Zhang Hanfu to be so angry that he almost died.
This time, he had profited tremendously!
After Lu Zhiruo ate her lunch, she ran to the storehouse she had stayed in before and started to practice. Because she was cultivating a peerless-grade saint-tier cultivation art, she didn't wish for others to secretly learn it.
When Sun Mo found her, the papaya girl was panting from exhaustion. Her school uniform was drenched in sweat and stuck tightly to her body.
"Teacher!"
Upon seeing Sun Mo, Lu Zhiruo immediately ran over with a smile on her face. She was like a domestic corgi puppy.
"Pay attention to your rest, don't overwork yourself."
Sun Mo patted the papaya girl's head and instructed the system in his heart to open the black treasure chest.
After a flash of light, a skill book was left behind!
"Congratulations, you've obtained the 'Black Tortoise Spirit Rune Drawing Technique'. Proficiency level: expert-grade. This spirit rune belongs to the defense-type. After activating it, you can release a gigantic black tortoise shell to defend against the enemy's attacks."
"I've struck it rich!"
Sun Mo was agitated. The papaya girl was as expected of his lucky mascot. A black-iron treasure chest had actually opened a spirit rune drawing technique book. Moreover, it was a defense-type one. It was simply too practical.
The only pity was that the proficiency level was a little lacking. It was only at the expert-grade. This meant that he would have to train for a very long time before he could raise it to the grandmaster-grade.
"Not bad!"
Sun Mo felt very elated. He really wanted to draw one and try it out. After that, when he used it, he would roar, 'When this daddy brings out a black tortoise, you will be the first one I kill!'
However, this sentence should only be shouted by a man who wielded a silver spear. For example, Zhao Zilong from Shijiazhuang. Hence, he definitely had to teach it to Xuanyuan Po.
After his thoughts wandered, Sun Mo patted the papaya girl's head and opened the silver treasure chest.
