"Were you following me all day yesterday?"
"Miao Haixin! What exactly are you trying to do?"
"Is it for... Lin Yu?"
At this point.
Yan Miaozhu really had nothing left to pretend about.
After all, continuing the act wouldn't make Miao Haixin believe her anyway.
If she could get photos of her appearing at that small hotel, she must also know who she was with there yesterday.
She originally thought everything was done safely enough that no one would find out.
Who would have thought.
Someone was actually tailing her in secret!
Mentioning Lin Yu's name, Yan Miaozhu instantly realized she had hit the mark...
Because.
Miao Haixin's reaction was huge, completely beyond her self-control.
The flustered Yan Miaozhu was the first to laugh instead:
"So it really is for Lin Yu!"
"A counselor... tailing a school teacher to protect a male student in her class..."
"Miao Haixin, think about it yourself, does that make any sense?"
"Alright, stop playing the righteous act with me. He's your type, right?"
"Got it, got it. I promise I won't have any further involvement with him."
To ensure her own safety, Yan Miaozhu immediately stated her position.
At the same time.
To not lose the upper hand in terms of momentum, she also exposed Miao Haixin's true colors on the spot.
They were the same kind of people, both setting their sights on the young fresh meat in the class.
No need to put on a whole performance for each other.
Wouldn't it be better to be real with each other?
What Yan Miaozhu didn't know was that Miao Haixin's motives right now really weren't of that sort!
It was because after talking with Lin Yu yesterday, she felt even more that he was a good kid.
And thinking about the reason their meeting was cut short yesterday...
It was inevitable that Yan Miaozhu might try to get him out again next time!
If Lin Yu kept refusing without explanation, and Yan Miaozhu didn't know why or what went wrong,
perhaps.
She might use her authority as the photography teacher to give him a hard time with his grades.
What if Lin Yu, being a soft-hearted boy, didn't want to cause trouble for her, his counselor, and didn't tell her?
Wouldn't that still mean she harmed Lin Yu through her silence?
After thinking it over all night.
Miao Haixin finally decided she would take the initiative to confront Yan Miaozhu herself.
General hints or verbal reminders wouldn't change anything.
Only by laying her cards on the table with a strong enough deterrent could she make Yan Miaozhu dare not cause trouble.
Now Yan Miaozhu had instead thrown a bucket of dirty water right on her.
Miao Haixin said, extremely angry:
"Don't think that just because you are like that, everyone else is the same!"
"Taking a step back, even if I really did like a boy in my class, I'm single!"
"You're a married woman, don't you have even a shred of moral restraint?"
Yan Miaozhu snorted coldly and said disdainfully:
"So, now you admit it, right?"
"Fine, what clever tactics, even resorting to tailing someone."
"No wonder you suddenly showed up in the office that day."
"You must have been eavesdropping at the door for a long time before knocking, right?"
Miao Haixin took a deep breath.
Knowing that arguing wasn't her strong suit.
Continuing would probably only end up making her angrier.
So.
Miao Haixin simply ignored Yan Miaozhu's provocation and went straight to the main point:
"Yan Miaozhu, listen carefully."
"If you don't want this matter exposed, from now on you are not to make things difficult for Lin Yu, and you must not harass him again."
"If I find out you have, I will absolutely not let you off."
Mustering her courage to say it all, Miao Haixin turned and left the office directly.
"Bang!"
Slamming the office door shut, Miao Haixin walked quickly to the stairwell.
She didn't stop until she reached the bottom of the stairs, leaning against a stone pillar.
"Huff... huff..."
Miao Haixin patted her chest vigorously, trying to calm her nervousness.
It was just too nerve-wracking!
She had never done anything like going to someone's door to argue and warn them before.
This was definitely a first.
Before going to find Yan Miaozhu, Miao Haixin had rehearsed it many times in her head.
She had imagined many scenarios.
What if the threat didn't work?
What if she asked to see other photos and she couldn't produce them?
What if she stumbled over her words and lost her momentum...
Fortunately.
None of those unexpected situations occurred in the end. She managed to deliver the confrontation and threat as planned.
Judging by Yan Miaozhu's reaction when she walked out the door,
she seemed genuinely intimidated by her "forcefulness."
Lin Yu should be safe now, right?
Finally did a good deed!
Thinking about Yan Miaozhu's sneering face just now, Miao Haixin felt even more displeased.
To think she would imagine Miao Haixin as that kind of person!
How could she, a counselor, possibly be with one of her own students?
...
On the other side.
Inside Yan Miaozhu's office.
Anxious and furious, she was scrolling through her chat history with Lin Yu from the past two days, line by line.
That bitch Miao Haixin actually accused her of "harassing" Lin Yu?
What she did with Lin Yu was entirely based on the suggestive language in their chats!
Otherwise.
How could she have been so sure that Lin Yu was open to it in his heart?
Just who the hell was harassing whom?
For a moment, Yan Miaozhu even suspected...
Could Lin Yu and Miao Haixin be pulling a "honey trap" scam on her?
If they hadn't actually tried to extort money, Yan Miaozhu would have pondered it more.
"Ding!"
While looking through the chat records.
A new message from Lin Yu came through:
「Lin Yu: Sorry, I was out shopping and didn't notice my phone.」
「Lin Yu: Okay, next time there's a chance, I'll treat you to a meal.」
「Lin Yu: (Photos of some purchased snacks)」
「Lin Yu: Returning fully loaded!」
Yan Miaozhu looked at her phone: "..."
So?
Lin Yu probably doesn't know Miao Haixin came to see her, right?
Otherwise.
Why would he chat with her so cheerfully, as if nothing happened?
Then it must all be Miao Haixin's wishful thinking!
Sure enough, that two-faced bitch, still putting on an act of being above it all!
Miao Haixin simply had no idea what kind of woman young male college students liked to fantasize about.
With her capabilities and looks, all she could do was use threats to make Yan Miaozhu back off.
Even so.
Did she think that would win her Lin Yu?
What a beautiful dream!
Yan Miaozhu thought for a while and still decided to reply to Lin Yu's message.
After all, as long as she reduced daily contact, Miao Haixin would think she was scared.
It's not like she could come over and snatch her phone to see if she was chatting with Lin Yu, right?
Miao Haixin wouldn't know about their private communication.
She'd just keep in touch for now.
And then...
Take some time to carefully find Miao Haixin's weakness!
No one is without weaknesses or secrets.
If Miao Haixin could find her secret, couldn't she retaliate?
Once she had leverage, she could ignore her threats.
...
