Chapter 179: Sowing Dissension
"Old Pan, you are so unkind! Why didn't you introduce such a beauty to me earlier?"
A gleam of determination flashed in Li Wenliang's eyes.
Teacher Pan's eyes flickered, and then he frowned and said:
"Old Li, she is a foreign language teacher here. Previously, the military police found trumped-up charges and wanted to take her away. Old Wu personally stepped in to stop them, and the matter was eventually dropped.
She is different from your concubines. I advise you not to have any ideas."
"Tsk tsk, after hearing your words, my desire to conquer has been aroused. Taming a wild horse will give me a great sense of accomplishment."
As he spoke, he picked up a glass of red wine and walked towards the direction where Lian Yi was.
Although Lianyi left, she kept watching the two of them out of the corner of her eye. Although she didn't know what they said, she had a rough guess from the look in Li Wenliang's eyes.
Sure enough, when the dance music started, Li Wenliang, thinking he was very gentlemanly, invited her to dance, and Lianyi said apologetically:
"I'm sorry, I want to have my first dance with Teacher Pan."
"Teacher Wu, this is too much of a disrespect."
Li Wenliang's smile faded.
"Officer Li misunderstood. What I meant was, can I dance the second dance with you? Mainly because I was embarrassed by someone a while ago, and Teacher Pan helped me."
Lianyi seemed not to notice the other party's cold face and continued to speak with a smile.
"How can he help you?"
Li Wenliang said with some disdain.
"He told the truth, proving that I didn't have the time to kill anyone, and foiled the plan of those who wanted to frame me."
Lianyi spoke frankly. After all, the incident was quite a big deal and even Old Wu came forward, so there were few people who didn't know about it.
“Really?”
Li Wenliang said thoughtfully.
Lianyi stood up, nodded to the other party, and went straight to find Teacher Pan.
As the two danced together on the dance floor, Lianyi first thanked him, and then got straight to the point:
"Teacher Pan, is your classmate married?"
"Hmm? Looks like they're getting married."
Teacher Pan said subconsciously.
"If that's the case, why is he still pretending to pursue me?
What I yearn for is a monogamous marriage, not the three obediences and four virtues that are feudal remnants used to bind women.
But men can have three wives and four concubines, and hug women left and right. I am a new woman and I hate such people the most."
Lianyi's words were very blunt, making Teacher Pan a little embarrassed.
"Teacher Pan, you and I returned from studying abroad to educate and save the country, not to get caught up in this kind of pursuit between men and women just to show off their charm."
“…”
"I always thought that Mr. Pan and I were the same kind of people, both passionate young people. Don't be influenced by that kind of soldier."
Lianyi almost said it out loud: Don't get involved with Li Wenliang, who disrespects women.
Teacher Pan could only smile and nod awkwardly but politely. Just as the first dance song was over, he immediately turned around and left the dance floor.
Lianyi was walking towards Li Wenliang when a female student from the Student Union walked towards her and stopped her just less than three steps away from Li Wenliang.
"Teacher Wu, Principal Wu asked you to go find him."
Lianyi nodded and could only smile and spread her hands to Li Wenliang, indicating that she would go to see the principal first.
What could Li Wenliang say? This wasn't a military camp, so he could only nod.
After Lianyi turned around, she whispered to the girl next to her:
"You did a good job, asking the male students to keep an eye on this man and not let him get close to our female students.
I heard from Teacher Pan that he already has several concubines, some of whom he robbed. You are not here to study to become someone's concubine."
After hearing this, the female classmate's face changed and she immediately nodded and left.
Until the end of the school celebration, Li Wenliang did not see Lianyi again, and he did not even touch the hand of a female student in the school.
No matter which female student he invited to dance with him, she would always find a reason to refuse or be asked to leave by someone else.
Li Wenliang's face was a little sour, and when he went to the bathroom, he heard two girls talking from a distance.
"Did the officer named Li invite you to dance?"
"If you invite me, I will just find an excuse to decline. I don't want to dance with such a person. It's disgusting."
"That's right. I heard that this officer has several concubines at home and he wants to hunt for beauties at our university. I don't know who invited such a person to the school anniversary. Principal Wu doesn't like such a sex-hungry ghost."
"Haha! You have such a vicious tongue, you keep saying such big truths! I think he came here with Teacher Pan."
"Given Mr. Pan's character, why would he bring someone like this here? He must have shamelessly wanted to follow me!
You haven’t even seen the way he looks at Teacher Wu, it’s really…”
Li Wenliang looked unhappy. It turned out that this was the reason why he was rejected all night. He took a few quick steps and tried to stop the two girls. Unfortunately, when he looked up, he saw the ladies' restroom.
A female teacher just walked out and when she saw Li Wenliang at the door, her expression was very subtle.
Li Wenliang could only grit his teeth and turn away.
Lianyi, who was watching all this at the corner, had a sarcastic smile on his lips.
The conversation between the two girls just now was directed and acted by her alone, and the purpose was very clear, which was to sow discord between Li Wenliang and Teacher Pan.
Although she didn't know why Teacher Pan introduced that person to her, she was sure that he didn't have any good intentions.
He should be very clear about the kind of people his former classmates were. Even so, Teacher Pan still went out of his way to introduce them to each other, which is very thought-provoking.
In the original body's memory, Teacher Pan has always been polite and gentle. Even when all the teachers despised her character, they did not stay away from her and still maintained a polite relationship as colleagues.
This time, she broke Hu Qian's trap right from the start and thought she would never meet the Kuomintang officer. Unexpectedly, after many twists and turns, it was Teacher Pan who brought them together.
On the other side, Li Wenliang went to find Teacher Pan who was chatting happily with the mayor's secretary, dragged him directly to a corner, and said somewhat unhappily:
"Old Pan, you don't do things like this. You said you wanted to introduce me to a beautiful woman, but then you turned around and told everyone that I have several concubines at home. Those female teachers and female students all avoided me like the plague. What do you say?"
"How did this come about? How could I tell someone something so private about you?"
Teacher Pan said in great surprise.
"Don't play it with me. I heard two girls point out that you said it."
"This must be a misunderstanding! Point it out to me and I'll go ask in person..."
Before he could finish his words, Wu Lianyi appeared.
She looked at Li Wenliang with a strange look in her eyes, then turned to Teacher Pan and said directly:
"Teacher Pan, Teacher Zhao just said that she met a strange man at the door of the women's restroom. It seemed to be your classmate."
Li Wenliang's face immediately turned pale, and he was just short of calling him a pervert.
"This... Teacher Wu, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding here..."
"Your classmate is right here, just ask him and you'll know."
