Zhen Tian was completely confused by everyone's commotion.
"What exactly is going on?"
Without having time to say much to Zhen Tian, Yang Tao picked up a coat and put it over her pajamas, then followed Zhen Tian to the counselor's office, talking non-stop the whole way.
"The new counselor is a pretty young woman, but who knows she seems to be a psychopath. Right from the start of the semester, she gathered everyone in an empty classroom and started criticizing everyone."
Yang Tao pointed to her hair: "Look, this hair, and Jin Yaya, Jiang Wei, and Xiao Yi who came here. The counselor criticized their hair, saying we only care about looking good and can't focus on our studies. She even said we weren't dressed like decent people. Like that other day, so-and-so..."
Yang Tao thought for a long time: "It's Wang Zehan, the girl who gave you trouble during military training. That day, she wore a sundress and was called away by the counselor, who said she didn't look like a good person wearing a sundress. She also said..."
"Anyway, it was said in a pretty harsh way."
Before I could finish speaking, we arrived at our destination.
Yang Tao didn't want to go in and see that perverted woman; she was wearing pajamas and might get yelled at.
"I'll be waiting for you at the door. Take care. Don't talk back, or this woman will get even more agitated."
Zhen Tian roughly understood, nodded, and was somewhat mentally prepared.
"Don't be afraid. If she tries to bully you, just shout and I'll rush in to save you."
"Okay." Zhen Tian knocked on the counselor's office door.
"Come in."
Hearing the sounds coming from inside, Zhen Tian and Yang Tao exchanged a glance, and Zhen Tian nodded to her before pushing open the office door.
The first thing Zhen Tian saw upon entering was a woman dressed in a glamorous manner that seemed completely out of place in the serious atmosphere of the office.
She wore exquisite makeup and a little black dress that showed off her beautiful figure. Her expression also revealed that she was very satisfied with herself.
While Zhen Tian was sizing up the other person, the other person was also sizing her up.
When Zhen Tian came to school to pick up her luggage today, she was dressed simply in a white T-shirt, shorts, and white sneakers.
The counselor was quite satisfied with her simple and clean appearance, but his gaze turned unfriendly when he saw Zhen Tian's delicate face.
Hello, teacher.
"Hmm." The woman said coldly, "Come over here a little. Do you expect me to invite you?"
Zhen Tian opened her mouth and said, "Oh."
She walked to the desk, her figure gradually becoming clearer.
The counselor then realized that her seemingly simple outfit was actually made entirely of luxury brands.
Her attitude softened a bit: "Why are you taking leave right after the start of the semester?"
Zhen Tian wasn't good at lying, so she blinked and said, "Something came up and I couldn't get back in time."
"What's up?"
My boyfriend is in another city for a conference!
The counselor sized her up, and the disdainful look he had given her before fell on Zhen Tian again.
Her boyfriend was in a meeting? She could deduce so much from that sentence.
A meeting? That means the person on the other end is probably not young.
Since she has a boyfriend, he must have bought her all those luxury brand clothes.
She imagined it all and labeled Zhen Tian as a gold digger. She thought she was clinging to rich men and might even be a kept woman.
The more I thought about it, the more obvious the disdain on the counselor's face became.
"How old are you to be out fooling around with men?"
Zhen Tian was taken aback by these words, feeling a strange sense of familiarity. Were all teachers the same, automatically assuming that someone with a boyfriend was going out and fooling around?
"You're only a sophomore, and you're letting a man interfere with your studies?" The counselor's words became increasingly sharp.
"And look at your hair..."
Zhen Tian subconsciously touched the soft black hair at the back of her head.
"It's almost up to your waist! How long does it take to style your hair every day? Doesn't it take up a lot of time? Go back and cut it for me." The teacher's tone was very natural, as if it were a matter of course.
"But……"
"Alright. Don't let me find out you're going out with men again. I'll have someone keep an eye on your dorm room."
The counselor finally fixed his gaze on her face: "And take off your makeup. Makeup is not allowed in our major."
"???"
"Alright, you can go now."
Zhen Tian was completely confused. Why couldn't she wear makeup anymore?
"Aren't you going out yet? Do you want me to take you?" The counselor glared at her unhappily, muttering a vulgar curse under her breath: "Idiot."
Zhen Tian remembered Yang Tao's repeated instructions before she came not to talk back. She held back and turned to leave.
Yang Tao peered through the crack in the door and overheard most of the conversation inside.
As soon as Zhen Tian came out, he grabbed her and ran a couple of steps away before speaking.
"You know what, this woman seems to be sick!" Yang Tao pouted. "Most of the people in our department have been called into the office for a talk, and they all came back crying."
"Why is she like this?" Zhen Tian couldn't understand at all.
"Who knows? Besides, don't you think the teacher's face looks weird? She wears heavy makeup every day. Many people in the department say she's had plastic surgery, but it wasn't very successful, so she relies on heavy makeup to cover it up."
The teachers' office building wasn't too far from their dormitory building, and the two of them chatted as they returned to their room.
Zhen Tian didn't pay much attention to the teacher's face, but she could tell that the makeup was quite heavy.
"What did you say?" Jin Yaya asked.
Because of the counselor's situation, Jin Yaya and Jiang Wei's relationship with Yang Tao has improved a lot recently, and the three of them often get together to complain.
Unlike before, Yang Tao didn't ignore Jin Yaya and told the two of them what had happened in the office.
Jin Yaya spat and said, "I knew it. It's no wonder your face gets targeted."
Anyone in the department who is even remotely attractive or knows how to dress has been invited for a chat.
Only a few quiet girls were not called to the office, but even those with clean and smooth hair were asked to get it cut.
"This teacher is probably mentally ill." Jin Yaya touched her shoulder-length short hair, extremely angry.
"What are you planning to do?" Jin Yaya asked Zhen Tian.
"I won't cut it."
Zhen Tian cherished her long hair; you could tell even when she was little. She even alarmed all the older brothers and uncles in the school over a single strand of hair.
Jiang Wei scoffed: "It's not like you can just refuse to cut it."
She had to pull all the strings in her family to be allowed to not cut her hair short, but she had to dye it black and straighten it.
"Yes, many girls struggled for days but just wouldn't cut their hair. The counselor would call them into the office every day, yell at them, and then not let them attend classes until they finished cutting their hair."
Yang Tao looked at Zhen Tian with concern: "Everyone was forced to cut their hair. They comforted each other, saying that it would grow back eventually."
"Then why don't you report her?" Zhen Tian asked.
"Because she's the principal's wife's sister!" Jin Yaya kicked the cabinet door angrily: "What's the use of finding anyone!"
"ah?"
