Before turning into a drifting soul, Jin Ran was suffering due to the economic downturn and became one of the many unemployed fresh graduates. By a twist of fate, her soul transmigrated into a nove...
Chapter 11! Breaking News! A Beautiful Girl Appears at School! ...
Chapter 11
Jin Ran ran back to her bedroom with tears in her eyes.
As soon as the door closed, the expression on her face disappeared. Apart from the blush that lingered for a while, there was not a trace of the coquettishness of a young girl.
Well, actually, it's still a little embarrassing.
For the first time in her life, she encountered a handsome man standing in front of her holding sexy lingerie, and she not only remained completely still but also felt an urge to run away.
How can one not feel regret?
Jin Ran sighed deeply. She had actually been prepared for her identity to be exposed long ago, but she didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
Jiang Mingxu is too dangerous. He is thirty-five years old this year. How many thirty-five years does a person have in his life? In terms of life experience and career achievements, he is far superior to Jin Ran, who is twenty-five years old.
Just as Jiang Xuli felt a sense of being seen through when facing Jin Ran, Jin Ran had the same feeling when facing Jiang Mingxu.
She couldn't fathom his thoughts, making it impossible for her to make the right judgments. It felt like walking on a knife's edge, constantly on edge.
But Jin Ran didn't think that a smart businessman like Jiang Mingxu would do something for no reason, so what was the purpose of his test today?
Should the marriage be dissolved? Or should someone stand up for the original owner of this body?
The former two had just gotten married, and the latter seems unlikely given the plot of the original book.
Jin Ran pondered for a long time but couldn't come up with an answer. She cursed the background characters in the novel for having no human rights, and finally gave up and lay back on the bed.
If Jiang Mingxu wanted to crush her, it would be easier than crushing an ant. What other options did she have but to react to each move as it came?
However, this feeling of being unable to resist made Jin Ran feel a long-lost sense of defeat once again.
Jin Ran wasn't born wanting to be a teacher.
In her previous life, her family was of average middle-class means. Her parents owned a small factory and lived a peaceful and stable life.
As a result, during their senior year of high school, the factory went bankrupt due to poor management, and their family's situation deteriorated rapidly, even leaving them in debt.
Her parents argued every day because of this. On the day she filled out her college application, she silently crossed out her original school and changed it to a teacher's college. After graduation, she insisted on taking the civil service exam, valuing the stability of working for a state-owned enterprise.
Thinking about tomorrow's interview, Jin Ran looked at the lights above her head and was momentarily at a loss for what to do.
In the end, I decided to go and participate.
If Jiang Mingxu insists on kicking her out of the villa, she will need a job to support herself.
Even if you're not in a rush, you should still plan ahead and prepare for the future.
Jin Ran, now energized, did practice problems until 2 a.m. and was still full of energy when she woke up the next day.
She went to the lawn as usual and practiced yoga for half an hour.
It takes twenty-one days to form a habit, but only a second to form a bad one. Jin Ran will not allow herself to indulge her figure. Haven't you noticed that there are few fat people among the truly elite class? Good body management is sometimes a manifestation of restraint and rationality.
But to Jiang Xuli, who gets up early, this meant that Jin Ran was so "melancholy" that she couldn't sleep.
His expression became somewhat complicated.
He had been with his father since he could remember, but Jiang Xuli was not completely ignorant of his biological mother. People around him said that his mother was driven away by his father, and told him that he must be obedient, otherwise he might be driven away as well.
This cast a shadow on Jiang Xuli's young heart. Although he grew up and realized that those people were just watching the show, he understood one thing—his parents' relationship was indeed very bad.
Jiang Xuli always thought that his father's coldness towards him was due to his mother's displaced anger.
But now, witnessing Jin Ran secretly crying, he suddenly became uncertain again.
The boy stood there for a long time, until his legs went numb, before he quietly left.
However, he felt a sense of kinship with Jin Ran.
Jin Ran was unaware that she had unwittingly garnered a wave of sympathy.
Because her skin is so fair, the dark circles under her eyes after staying up all night were particularly noticeable. In order to cover them up, Jin Ran had to put on some light makeup.
Her makeup skills are quite good. Today she's wearing the velvet mocha makeup look that was popular before she time-traveled, paired with a carefully chosen khaki casual suit and denim A-line skirt. The shoes are from the wardrobe, a pair of black and white patterned sneakers, and she's carrying a tote bag in a darker shade.
It was a bit hot, so Jinran didn't let her hair down. Instead, she tied it up at the back of her head with a scrunchie to form a bun.
The final result in the mirror was perfect.
A blend of competence and casualness, with a touch of playfulness hidden within the casualness—the kind of teacher who would never be mistaken for a student or parent if walking around school!
Jin Ran nodded in satisfaction.
As she went downstairs, she was worried that she would run into Jiang Mingxu, but she didn't see him until she left the villa area.
For this reason, Jin Ran didn't bother Xiao Sun this time, and instead took a taxi to Wencheng Middle School herself.
When she arrived at the interview location, there were already three applicants in the waiting area. Two of them were men in their early forties, standing together and talking animatedly; opposite them sat a young woman who looked rather reserved, probably just out of school.
Jin Ran observed the girl discreetly for a moment, then naturally sat down next to her: "Are you here for an interview too?"
She gave a friendly smile.
Xu Zhen, who was so socially anxious from being alone, breathed a sigh of relief when she finally saw someone her own age arrive: "My name is Xu Zhen, and I'm here to apply for a Chinese language teacher position. I just graduated from S University this year. What about you?"
"My surname is Jin and my given name is Ran, with the grass radical. I majored in mathematics and graduated from A Normal University."
Xu Zhen immediately showed an expression of admiration.
A Normal School is the best normal school in the country. Jin Ran is beautiful and dresses fashionably. She subconsciously thought she was an art teacher, but she didn't expect her to be a math whiz.
Mathematics? It's a monster in the eyes of liberal arts students. At least Xu Zhen always barely passed her math exams.
She suddenly remembered a popular internet saying: "People who are more talented than you work even harder than you." Then, thinking about how she had wasted her four years of college and only got an interview opportunity after graduation through connections, she felt ashamed and couldn't help but ask, "Did you come here because you heard about that news?"
"What news?"
Jin Ran was taken aback by the question.
Xu Zhen lowered her voice: "I heard it from someone else. Wencheng Middle School is going to create a foundation this year and implement a 'prestigious school + enterprise' cooperation model. Do you know Mingji Technology? It's the one that sells computers. Because the son of their boss is studying here, they will not only sponsor poor students, but also provide overseas study funds for some outstanding teachers!"
The young woman exclaimed excitedly, "I've always wanted to go abroad, but my family's circumstances don't allow it. If I could become a teacher at Wencheng Middle School, maybe I could go abroad on a government scholarship in the future!"
Jin Ran was taken aback.
Mingji Technology? Isn't that Jiang Mingsu's company?
She hadn't expected such a coincidence. But then she thought, Jiang Xuli had just entered high school, and it was understandable that Jiang Mingxu, as her father, would donate equipment and funds to the school.
Looking at Xu Zhen's face, which seemed to have found a kindred spirit, she was too embarrassed to say that she had chosen Wencheng Middle School simply because it was close to home: "If that's true, it's really good."
Xu Zhen nodded emphatically, agreeing: "If my cousin hadn't been a teacher at Wencheng Middle School, I wouldn't have known such important news. By the way, my cousin is also a math teacher. He just got into Wencheng Middle School last year."
Upon hearing this, Jin Ran had a sudden thought and asked, "Is your cousin named Wang Chen?"
Xu Zhen was extremely surprised: "You know my cousin?"
How could she not know that her nerdy cousin knew such a beautiful woman!
Jin Ran then smiled and explained the registration process.
It was also because Teacher Wang was so proactive in her work that she didn't forget to recruit people for the school after get off work. Because of this connection, the two people who were recruited quickly became closer to each other.
Jin Ran didn't have many friends here. She had a good impression of the talkative Xu Zhen. When she wanted to befriend someone, probably no one would refuse. Before long, Xu Zhen grabbed her arm and called her Ranran.
However, they didn't chat for long before it was Jin Ran's turn for her interview.
"Go Ranran!"
Xu Zhen clenched her fist and shook it.
Jin Ran was a little nervous when she walked into the classroom, thinking that she might make one mistake or another.
In reality, her interview went smoothly throughout. Perhaps it was because she had prepared thoroughly in the past few days and had already developed muscle memory for it. Among the interviewees, she was not the most experienced, but her trial lecture was quite remarkable.
Finally, when Jin Ran, standing on the podium, saw the teachers below giving her gentle smiles, she knew that she had most likely succeeded.
Thinking of this, I finally couldn't help but laugh.
So what if I'm transported to a strange world? So what if I'm not from a wealthy family?
She always achieves her goals step by step, and then gets better and better.

Xu Zhen came out with a big smile on her face.
"I think I did pretty well. Maybe I'll have a chance to be selected. What about you, Ranran?"
Jin Ran smiled and said, "I think it's alright too."
Both of them were very happy. Seeing that it was still early, Xu Zhen suggested taking a walk around the school: "If we pass the interview, this will be where we work. Let's get familiar with the teaching environment in advance."
Jin Ran thought about it and agreed.
Because she didn't really want to go back to the villa.
If she were to run into Jiang Mingxu, and he suddenly asked her who she was, she really wouldn't know how to answer.
Over the weekend, students at Wencheng Middle School were on holiday at home, but many boarding students had already returned to school with their luggage.
The two had only walked a short distance when they encountered several groups of people.
Looking at these energetic students, Jin Ran felt a sense of familiarity, like a medical student looking at lab rats. These were all promising students who would be listening to her lectures in the future.
Little did you know, while you stood on the bridge admiring the scenery, someone else was admiring you from a building.
Some students were so impressed by Jin Ran's looks that they secretly took out their phones to take pictures and then posted them in their private student groups.
Breaking news! A stunning beauty has appeared at school! No exaggeration, she is absolutely gorgeous!
