    Thud, thud. The English teacher knocked his pointing stick on Mu Xiaoxiao’s table, his face showing delight. He then raised his head and said to everyone, “You should not be like Mu Xiaoxiao, thinking that you don’t have to learn English just because you can speak it well. After all, conversations and examinations are not…”


    Before he could finish speaking, as he was walking up to the podium, a leg suddenly extended below. As he lifted his head in delight, he didn’t see the leg and tripped over it.


    He stumbled and nearly fell, but he clung onto the two tables beside him in an embarrassing posture and finally steadied himself.


    Some of the students muffled theirughter.


    The English teacher looked grim. After he stood steadily, he turned to look at Yu Zhe and said, “You—”


    Yu Zhe looked all innocent as he shrugged his shoulders and said, “I’m sorry, teacher. I didn’t mean it.”


    In fact, he did mean it. His mouth revealed a faint smile that was too obvious, and his manner of apologizing was too insincere.


    With that said, Yu Zhe nced at Mu Xiaoxiao with a smile as if he was taking credit for helping her.


    The English teacher was red in the face. However, he couldn’t do anything to Yu Zhe, and he had no choice but to swallow his anger.


    “Be careful next time. Don’t put out your legs. It’s okay if I fall, but what if other students fell?”


    Having exined in a calm and collected manner, he stood erect and disyed a confident posture.


    He nced down and saw that Yu Zhe’s leg was still extended, and he decided to cross over. However, Yu Zhe suddenly retracted his leg. Seeing that, the English teacher also instinctively withdrew his attempt to cross over.


    In a turn of events, the English teacher posture was unstable, and he lost bnce and fell to the ground.


    “Ha ha ha ha…” the students couldn’t help butugh out loud as the sight was simply tooical.


    However, eachugh felt like a p to his face.


    The English teacher looked grim.


    Yu Zhe click his tongue and said, sounding concerned, “Teacher, why don’t you be more careful? I have already retracted my leg, yet you fell again. You won’t me me, will you?”


    Mu Xiaoxiao stared nkly as she finally realized that Yu Zhe was sticking up for her.


    The English teacher was practically crawling to his feet. The students’ughter had left himpletely humiliated. Without waiting for his dismissal, the students left on their own.


    Mu Xiaoxiao was unsure whether tough or cry. She was only in a daze for a while, and trouble had already urred.


    In contrast, Yu Zhe was feeling joyful. He turned his head to her and ced his hands ovepped on her table, looking as if he was seeking praise from her. “How was it? I avenged you. How do you intend to thank me? Treat me to lunch?”


    “Actually, I wasn’t offended earlier…” Mu Xiaoxiao smiled grudgingly. The English teacher thought that he had made her sullen, but she wasn’t paying attention and hadn’t even put the matter to heart.


    Yu Zhe humphed and said, “Didn’t you see his face? Damn, just looking at that puts me in a bad mood! He was deliberately causing you trouble and even secretly enjoying it. That’s disgusting!”


    “Okay okay. What’s done is done. Don’t go overboard next time.” Mu Xiaoxiao didn’t want to reprimand him as he had just stuck up for her after all.


    The next lesson was physical education ss.


    Mu Xiaoxiao sat at the steps at the side, still hesitating about whether to find Yin Shaojie to apologize despite Yu Zhe’s advice to find him after he had some time to calm down.


    However, she still thought that it was best to approach him immediately to apologize and exin herself.
