Ouyang Mingyuan went to class, and Li Yuzhen was the only one left in the empty office. He took off his plain glasses without prescription and looked at his cold right arm under the white light.
"One, two, three, four, five... thirty."
When Li Yuzhen counted to thirty, Ni Jin kicked open the office door. The woman walked in, swaying her waist. She leaned against Li Yuzhen's desk, dusted off her cigarette ash, and smiled charmingly, "Teacher Li."
"Substitute teacher?" Li Yuzhen didn't even raise his head. "How many days?"
He had long been accustomed to this. Ni Jin always appeared at various cocktail parties, and Li Yuzhen was her substitute teacher.
Ni Jin tapped her cheek twice, covered her lips and smiled, "Hmm...you guessed wrong, Teacher Li."
Li Yuzhen then raised her eyes and looked at Ni Jin: "What is that?"
Ni Jin frowned slightly at the lipstick mark on her cigarette, but didn't think much of it. She'd just reapply her lipstick later. She dusted off the ash, lifted her red skirt, and spun around. "Teacher Li, do I look good?"
Li Yuzhen held his forehead and said, "Let's talk about it."
Ni Jin snorted softly, "Your Zhao Liu'er stayed at my house for eight days, but I didn't charge her a single cent."
"So, I'll let you talk."
Ni Jin tutted and sat directly on Li Yuzhen's desk, crossing her legs. She was wearing red-soled high heels with a leaky bottom. One foot was half-raised as she looked down at Li Yuzhen with a charming smile: "Be my boyfriend for one night, and I won't charge you the rent."
"Well, do they mind that your boyfriend is disabled?" Li Yuzhen stepped back, straightened his shirt, and picked up the tie that was placed in the corner.
Ni Jin walked over to Li Yuzhen while smoking: "I don't mind, but you have to be quiet."
"Okay." Li Yuzhen put on his suit jacket, picked up the glasses on the table and put them on, but Ni Jin took them away and helped him to do his hairstyle.
"He's more handsome without glasses, but not with them." Ni Jin seemed to be talking about Li Yuzhen's looks, but also seemed to have some hidden meaning.
Li Yuzhen put on his glasses and said, "I'm nearsighted, so I need glasses to see clearly. Otherwise, I can't tell whether it's a boy or a girl. Wouldn't that be embarrassing?"
Ni Jin laughed heartily upon hearing this, and finally, she took Li Yuzhen's wrist and left the office: "Let's go, dear."
Li Yuzhen nodded slightly to Ni Jin, and the two of them got into the luxury car downstairs together.
Ouyang Mingyuan returned from his evening class and saw that the office was empty. He wondered, "Isn't today the 1st?" He was about to call Li Yuzhen when he realized someone had already left him a message:
Ouyang, please help me look after Class 10 and Class 1. Ni Jin and I have something to discuss.
Ouyang Mingyuan was dumbfounded. Class 10 was still easy to deal with because they were on the same floor. How far was that class from Class 9? It was in the next building!
"I really owe you two." Ouyang Mingyuan sighed, thinking that there were people in his class and Class 10 to keep the situation under control, so he went to Class 1 first to take a look.
——
The venue was extremely luxurious, with huge crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling and famous paintings and wallpapers on the walls.
Ni Jin walked into the venue holding Li Yuzhen's hand, and reminded Li Yuzhen: "Remember, don't speak."
Li Yuzhen nodded, took the champagne glass brought by the waiter, and took the opportunity to quickly glance at the people in the venue.
It would be better if I didn't see it, but once I saw it...
Why is his student here? He didn’t approve the leave application, did he?
Ai Yu's eyes met Li Yuzhen's. She smiled at her teacher, tugged at Qian Cheng's sleeve, and pointed to him: "Look."
Qian Cheng looked over and saw that it was Li Yuzhen. He quickly pulled Ai Yu into the crowd to avoid Li Yuzhen's gaze. "Sister, why is Teacher Li here? Did he find out that we skipped class and came to catch us?"
"I don't know." Ai Yu shook her head. "I just noticed someone was looking at me."
Qian Cheng held his forehead and said, "Why is Teacher Li here?"
Ai Yu tugged at Qian Cheng's sleeve again: "Teacher Li is here."
Qian Cheng took a deep breath and met Li Yuzhen's gaze with a smile: "Teacher Li, please listen to my explanation."
Li Yuzhen didn't care about them skipping classes: "Why are you here? It's not safe here. Go back quickly."
Qian Cheng scratched his head and said, "I didn't want to come either, but my dad insisted on bringing us here to broaden our horizons."
Before he finished speaking, the lights in the venue turned off, focusing on the platform in the middle of the stairs. A man in a tuxedo slowly walked down from the upstairs, wearing a pure white mask on his face. Standing under the spotlight, he said in a voice that was neither loud nor soft, but loud enough for everyone to hear: "Welcome everyone to the Devil's Dinner."
There was a burst of cheers in the stadium.
Ni Jin finally found her "boyfriend" and was about to scold Li Yuzhen, but when she saw Ai Yu and Qian Cheng, she didn't know what to say: "What's going on? Why are your students here?"
Li Yuzhen put his index finger between his lips, signaling everyone to be quiet.
"To liven up the atmosphere for everyone, let's start with the warm-up program." The man bowed, and the spotlight left him and began to run around the venue.
The masked man on the stage resumed his standing position, and a machine-like voice began counting: "Five, four, three, two, one!"
The spotlight fell on Ai Yu.
"Let us congratulate this beautiful lady. Oh, God has mercy on us. Beautiful lady, please come up to the stage."
Ai Yu was a little confused and was pulled to the stands by the waiter.
Qian Cheng tried to strike several times, but was held back by Li Yuzhen. He whispered in Qian Cheng's ear, "Don't move yet. Wait and see what happens. Ai Yu is my student. I will ensure her safety."
Qian Tai was a little panicked when he found out that his beloved goddaughter had been taken away. What were these people doing? Where was Qian Cheng? Why wasn't he looking at Ai Yu? He looked around, but he was just an ordinary person, not enough to find his son in such an environment.
Damn it, he should have known not to come and be polite with these dead guys. He has only cherished his goddaughter for a short time, he can’t let anything happen to her.
Ai Yu was escorted to the stands by a waiter. The man in the tuxedo bowed to her and said, "Beautiful lady, please allow me to offer you a glass of fine wine."
Li Yuzhen suppressed Qian Cheng who was about to make a move, and his eyes were also focused on the stage.
Ai Yu looked at the dark red liquid presented in front of him. Both the smell and the color looked not much different from red wine.
"Beautiful lady, please drink this glass of fine wine, for us." The man looked at Ai Yu with fiery eyes.
Ai Yu picked up the cup of dark red liquid and secretly exchanged glances with Li Yuzhen. Seeing that the other party nodded, Ai Yu drank it down in one gulp without thinking any more.
Huajianzui said that Li Yuzhen could be trusted.
She listens to Sister Hua.
Seeing Ai Yu's move, the crowd cheered even more wildly. The man in the tuxedo also applauded Ai Yu: "Excellent, wonderful! Thank you, Miss. Your courage and your actions are truly intoxicating and fascinating."
Ai Yu spread his hands: "And then?"
Isn't it a warm-up show? Is it just watching me drink?
