The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man

The other teachers: ...

’So, the husband and wife are both working as teachers at the school now?’

’No, that’s not it.’

’Shouldn’t the real point be that Gu Jiaojiao could just pull out a Titoni watch worth over two hundred yuan?’

Vouchers for those watches were hard to come by—none of them, as teachers, could even get their hands on one. But Gu Jiaojiao bought one just like that. The way they looked at her changed.

The girl was fair-skinned and delicate, with refined, beautiful features. One look and you could tell she’d never done any rough labor. ’She must be the young lady of some wealthy family!’

In an instant, everyone started speculating about Gu Jiaojiao’s background.

They were all very curious, but since it was their first time meeting, it wouldn’t be appropriate to ask too many detailed questions.

’Oh well, there’s always time.’

Seeing that everyone was starting to prepare their lessons, Gu Jiaojiao also began to familiarize herself with her work routine.

’On my very first day, my own husband already blew my cover. He didn’t leave me any mystery at all.’

As for the female teacher who had previously told Gu Jiaojiao that Leng Yuan was married, she stared at Gu Jiaojiao’s back, a look of utter defeat on her face.

She had liked Leng Yuan ever since she started at this school. She thought she had an advantage being so close to him, but then he suddenly got married. Even so, she hadn’t given up. She believed she was good enough, and that his wife from the village, who had such a terrible reputation, was completely unworthy of him.

But now that she’d met her, she realized she couldn’t compare to Gu Jiaojiao at all. Forget Leng Yuan—if she were a man, she would also fall for such a beautiful girl.

People are always drawn to beautiful things. Gu Jiaojiao’s face was so exquisitely radiant that she could charm both men and women. Unless someone was inherently malicious, it was impossible to dislike such a pretty girl.

Li Lin couldn’t bring herself to hate Gu Jiaojiao either. At that moment, she decided she truly had to let go of the deep affection she held in her heart.

Otherwise, she would only cause trouble for others.

How could Gu Jiaojiao have known? Not only was her cover blown on the first day, but she had also unknowingly nipped one of her husband’s potential romances in the bud.

The morning passed peacefully. In the afternoon, Gu Jiaojiao had to handle a fight.

Two fourteen-year-old boys, new first-years in middle school and at their most rebellious age, had gotten into a fight over a single comment.

This sort of thing was normally the homeroom teacher’s responsibility. But now that there was a teaching assistant, and everyone else was busy while she was free, it naturally fell to her.

’Human resources management. She knew all about that.’

When Gu Jiaojiao arrived, the two had already been pulled apart. So as not to disturb the other classes, she took the two boys away.

Once they got to the office, Gu Jiaojiao looked at the two with a wide grin, just like the Big Bad Wolf disguised as grandma.

”I don’t care why you were fighting, and I don’t care who was right or wrong. You disrupted class discipline, so you have to accept the punishment. You two, face each other and stare for ten minutes.”

The two boys who fought were both troublemakers. They weren’t even afraid of the regular teachers here, let alone a new teaching assistant like Gu Jiaojiao.

”You tell us to stare, so we’re supposed to stare? We won’t,” the two said in unison.

Gu Jiaojiao picked up a book and said with a grin, ”I’m Mr. Leng’s wife. If you don’t listen to me, I’ll have him come over and talk to you.”

The two boys were dumbfounded. ’Is this woman a devil?’

’How can she be so terrifying?’

’It’s just staring, right?’

’Who’s afraid of who?’

And so, the two boys, who had just been in a fight and wanted nothing more than to kill each other, began to stare intently at each other’s faces.

Gu Jiaojiao checked the time, then picked up a Chinese textbook and started reading.

”I’ve started the timer. I’ll let you know when ten minutes are up.”

The two classmates: ...

’Fine!’

At first, they glared at each other, their eyes filled with fury, wishing they could beat the other one up again. But after two minutes, the anger faded. Looking at the bruises on each other’s faces, they found it ridiculous and almost couldn’t stop themselves from laughing out loud.
