Chapter 517 - 517: Kowtow and Call Grandma
The other students were not in a hurry to leave either. They all wanted to see what the “gift” Teacher Lin was talking about was.
“I’m sorry, student. I forgot that I only have two classes today,” Ms. Lin apologized to Zhou Chen.
“Although you’re my class representative, you might not have the chance to perform your duties as a class representative in the future.”
Teacher Lin had made it clear that this “class representative” title was just nominal.
Zhou Chen’s face immediately showed disappointment.
Zhuang Peng, on the other hand, had a smug look on his face, thinking to himself, ‘I’ve spent halt my lite aiming to become a class representative, but it’s all just a mirage!’ Only Zhou Chen, that fool, could be so easily deceived!
“Teacher, what is my present?” Zhuang Peng asked proudly.
He was expecting something tangible.
“I heard you made a bet with someone? A classmate?” Teacher Lin asked curiously.
Zhuang Peng, not hiding anything, pointed towards Xia Chen. “Yes, it’s him!”
Ms. Lin waved at Xia Chen and asked him to come over.
Xia Chen’s brows were tightly furrowed, seemingly reluctant.
Xia Wan nudged him, not wanting to miss this potentially interesting moment.
Pushed by Xia Wan, Xia Chen approached Teacher Lin reluctantly.
“Xia Chen, this student claims he made a bet with you,” Teacher Lin raised her voice slightly. “Tell me, what was the bet?”
Xia Chen hesitated, not speaking immediately.
Zhuang Peng, growing impatient, interjected. “Xia Chen might seem quiet and like a good student in school, but he’s actually quite the opposite outside!”
“He was seen at a hotel with a very beautiful woman!”
“His behavior is morally corrupt, undermining the school spirit!”
“Wow! Is it that serious?” Teacher Lin asked, seemingly surprised. “Do you have any evidence?
“I, of course I… We all saw it!” Zhuang Peng said, glancing at his companion for support.
“That’s right! We all saw it! That woman was there when we made the bet with Xia Chen yesterday!”
“Yes! That woman even boasted about showing us the grandeur of the school! Ha! What a joke!” Zhuang Peng scoffed, recalling the woman’s shameless claims.
“Oh,” Teacher Lin said thoughtfully, tilting her head. “Do you feel your school is magnificent from your personal experience?”
Zhuang Peng was taken aback by her question.
“What do you mean?” he asked, blinking in confusion.
“You just ran 10 laps around the field. Didn’t you feel the magnificence of your school? Or do you think running around the entire school would give a better sense of it?” Teacher Lin asked, feigning confusion.
“What do you mean?” Zhuang Peng immediately became alert.
Teacher Lin removed her hat, revealing a charming and smiling face. “You’ve lost the bet!”
Zhuang Peng blinked hard and didn’t respond for a good while.
Several of his companions also stared at Teacher Lin in shock. “You’re the one from yesterday!”
Linda tilted her head, looking at the stunned boys. “You were wrong about one thing! You deserve to be punished!”
“What is it?” Zhuang Peng asked, still processing the situation.
“The person you bet with yesterday wasn’t Xia Chen, but me!” Linda declared, looking at Zhuang Peng. “Since you’ve lost the bet, you must admit defeat.
Kneel and kowtow to me!”
Zhuang Peng was speechless, standing there and staring at Linda in disbelief. “Teacher Lin, you’re a teacher. You can’t be so harsh with us, right?” “Besides, isn’t kneeling and kowtowing in school inappropriate?”
“Yeah, Teacher Lin, please forgive us! We’re still young and didn’t know better!”
‘Young? Didn’t know better?” Linda snorted. “When you concocted that scandal about Xia Chen and me, you didn’t seem so young and naive!
‘Your arrogance towards me yesterday didn’t suggest immaturity either!
“Also, I’ve informed your principal about today’s events.
“Disrespecting teachers and slandering classmates are serious matters. Your school will handle this appropriately.
“Class is over now. Please honor your bet.
“Be true to your word!”
