Right Here Waiting For You - Chapter 56
Chapter 56: He’s My Hubby
“So… what is the relationship between the two of you?” The two forms teachers interrupted, having no idea what was going on.
“A silly child betrothal.”
“He’s my hubby!”
They both said at the same time.
When Tiantian produced their token of love, the two teachers, who were much older and still very single, shared a look with each other, and told them to head back to class.
It was hard for these singles to stomach!
“I’m making a move first, Inky!” Ning Tiantian left the office and headed back toward her classroom. Had it been any other time, she would have insisted that he personally walk her back to her classroom.
Seeing her move so hastily, Li Yanmo couldn’t help frowning and telling her, “Don’t trip and fall.”
Otherwise, it would become a hassle for him!
As soon as Ning Tiantian was back in her classroom, she walked toward Zhou Xiaoxiao with clenched fists.
“Tiantian, you…” Cookie was about to ask what the teacher wanted with her but saw that Tiantian had grabbed Zhou Xiaoxiao by the red scarf around her neck.
Ning Tiantian’s face was flushed with anger as she questioned, “Zhou Xiaoxiao, were you the one who went to the teacher?”
“What happened? Why are you so furious, class monitor?”
It didn’t take long for the rest of the class to crowd around them and to stare in puzzlement.
“Me? What did I tell the teacher?” Zhou Xiaoxiao was a six-year-old, after all. Although she refused to admit what she had done, her plump face was already beaded in perspiration, thanks to her guilty conscience.
Her refusal to admit what she had done pissed off Ning Tiantian even further.
Given the disciplinary policies of the school, one could receive a demerit for engaging in puppy love. Besides, Inky was about to start junior high. Had she not tried her best to prove that they were indeed betrothed to each other, he might have received a demerit, which could very well have affected his graduation.
How could she not be mad?!
“I saw the CCTV footage. You’ve been to the teachers’ office!” Ning Tiantian said firmly.
“I have indeed been to the teachers’ office. But you don’t have any proof that I was the one who told the teacher about your puppy love…” Unable to think straight, Zhou Xiaoxiao had inadvertently admitted the truth.
“So it really was you!”
“Ning Tiantian, how dare you trick me! There isn’t actually any CCTV footage, is there!” Zhou Xiaoxiao finally understood what was going on, even if she was a little slow.
That’s right, Ning Tiantian hadn’t seen any CCTV footage. Nor did she have any conclusive evidence that Zhou Xiaoxiao was the one who ratted on her. But Zhou Xiaoxiao was the only person in class that had bad blood with her.
Other than her, Tiantian could not imagine anyone else who would tell tales on her to the teacher.
“Let go of me!” Zhou Xiaoxiao struggled to get out of Tiantian’s grip. There was no remorse in her tone at all. “Yeah, so what if it was me? Why can’t I tell the teacher about your relationship?”
It was exactly what she wanted–for Tiantian to be punished by the teacher, and perhaps even be forced to relinquish her post as class monitor!
Ning Tiantian got even angrier. Tightening her grip on the red scarf, she warned her, “If you dare mess with me again, I will beat you to a pulp! Don’t tell me how powerful your dad is. My family is also not to be trifled with!”
If having a powerful family meant being able to lord it over someone else, then she didn’t mind taking advantage of that this time around!
After Ning Tiantian’s outburst, Zhou Xiaoxiao took it down a notch or two. At the very least, she stopped being a pain in the *ss when Tiantian got first in the end-of-term exams. She also stopped touching the books or stationery on Tiantian’s desk.
When summer break came around, Li Yanmo had successfully made it to junior high, which was separated from the elementary school division by only a building.
After summer break was over, he formally became a seventh-grader. According to Godma, that meant his “good days” were over.
