Chapter 1186 Jiang Menghan's Thoughts

Soon,
Jiang Menghan leaned down slightly and carefully pulled the blanket back up for him, her movements so gentle that she was afraid of disturbing his sleep.

While making these movements, a soft feeling welled up in the girl's heart that she herself was unaware of, overpowering all her reserve and composure.

She gently lowered her head and placed a very light, very shallow kiss on his forehead.

"fool."

The sound was as faint as a mosquito's buzz, carried away by the cool night breeze of Lorenzreel, disappearing without a trace.

Completely immerse yourself in the slumbering night of this vast steam academy.

Jiang Menghan roughly knew what Su Wen was doing.
But she couldn't disturb it.
All I can do is silently stay by his side during times like these.

At this moment, the simulated moonlight flowed like water across the windowsill, flocks of birds flapped their wings and swept across the sky, and dark shadows flashed by beneath the clouds.

But in the distant place where the two are out of reach.

A hoarse male voice echoed softly in the darkness, carrying both piety and ruthlessness:
“I have roughly located the location of the ‘Cursed Child’, and I hope God will bless me.”

A faint reply immediately drifted to his ear, both real and ethereal, indistinguishable between male and female:
"Then you must be careful."

Because the lineage of the 'Children of the Curse' will reflect back to you..."

In an instant,

Before he could finish speaking, something unexpected happened.

The hoarse male voice suddenly felt the ground beneath his feet give way, and the rock abruptly crumbled.

Before he could even utter a complete scream, he plummeted straight down the bottomless cliff, his screams quickly swallowed by the abyss.

Only one earphone, left behind on the cliff, was still making a crackling sound.
"Searcher number eighty-three has returned to the Lord's embrace."
pity.

Let's activate number 84.

But we have received some good news:

"The 'Cursed Child' is indeed in Lorenzriel."

But the next second...
The earphone was picked up by a man wearing a monocle and carrying a stack of books.

He pondered for a moment:

"I didn't expect Lorenzreel to have been infiltrated to this extent, especially since the [Permanent Magnet] side has already been dealt with."

Should we tell the dean about this 'small matter'?

interesting. "

In just a moment, the earphone turned into ashes in his hand and disappeared into the night wind.

Night returned to silence.

It was as if nothing had happened.

——————————————————————————————————

At noon the next day,
Young teacher Su Wen slept in all morning, only waking up after the alarm rang three times. Thus, he missed his fifth class of the academic year once again.

If Jiang Menghan hadn't substituted for his classes,
Perhaps if the young dean's admonitions prove useless, old Constance will have to come to him personally.

"The entire academy is full of people like this."
This inevitably led to old Constance always looking like he was burdened with a bitter and resentful expression.

Jiang Menghan, who had just finished her substitute teaching session, helped Su Wen collect the clothes from the balcony.

She then complained to Su Wen about the students in class that day, her eyes showing a hint of helplessness mixed with a barely perceptible smile.
"Although it's not high school anymore..."

But now I do understand a little better what the old teacher felt back then.

Many of the freshmen were making small movements in the back row. Did they think they could hide it from a third-level superhuman?

Do you remember that tall, thin boy in the front row when you were lecturing?
To surprise the girl he wanted to pursue, he secretly hid the raw materials for the extraordinary potion in his textbook during today's lab class.

Thinking I couldn't see, she was still secretly fiddling with the flower petals, trying to concoct a simple calming potion while I was lecturing.

My hand slipped.
I almost got some petal dust on my deskmate's hair. There were also two girls in the back row who were ostensibly taking notes together, but were actually secretly using their mental powers to whisper among themselves.

They said the head of student affairs had been too strict with punishing them by making them copy school rules last time, and they were even discussing giving him a "surprise" next time. Their little schemes were written all over their faces.

The aloof girl spoke,

He tapped the tabletop lightly with his fingertip, a hint of smugness in his voice.
"But don't worry, I haven't spoiled them."

That guy who stole the potion-making equipment, I made him grind all those raw materials into powder and copy the potion safety rules a thousand times.

If he dares to misbehave in class again, he will be punished by being sent to the back hill to manage the laboratory.

I recorded those two gossiping and handed it to the head of student affairs after class. Maybe next time they'll be thinking about how to get revenge on me.

Su Wen leaned back on the sofa.
Listening to her unusually sarcastic remarks, her eyes were full of gentle smiles.

He reached out and gently ruffled her hair, his fingertips brushing against the top of her head, his tone full of affection:

"You shouldn't be so strict with them."

They are all teenagers.
It's normal to have a little temper now and then, since one's temperament isn't yet settled.

Jiang Menghan refused.

She tilted her head slightly to avoid his hand, a faint blush rising on her cheeks.

But she still huffed and pokes his chest lightly with her fingertip, the touch as light as a feather.
"How dare you say that to me?"
You, the teacher, can't even get out of bed yourself, yet you expect me to cover your classes every day.

"Then I won't go in your place next time. You can go teach the students in your pajamas!"

Su Wen wasn't annoyed. Instead, he leaned closer to her, his smile deepening, and his tone teasing her with a hint of playfulness:

"It's not impossible."
Anyway, my pajamas look pretty good.

I don't know who bought me this outfit; maybe the students will even find me approachable.

"No, I've changed my mind!"

Jiang Menghan's cheeks flushed even deeper. She glared at Su Wen, her clear eyes filled with a hint of coquettishness.
"You're deliberately trying to annoy me again."

"Hmph, I'm not making you lunch. I'll let you go hungry!"

Su Wen's eyes were practically overflowing with laughter. He reached out and gently pinched her cheek, his tone still full of affection:
"Then I'll have Joyce and the others bring me some from the cafeteria."

By the way, those three should have been studying diligently lately, right?
Didn't I learn from you?

When the three girls were mentioned, Jiang Menghan's tone softened, and a gentle smile appeared in her eyes.
He didn't forget to take the opportunity to mock Su Wen:
"Yes, except for Joyce, who, like her lazy teacher, often overslept and was always late for class."

The other two girls are quite hardworking, much more reliable than you, the teacher who always sleeps in.

Despite her words, Jiang Menghan quietly lowered her fingertips, her tone devoid of any blame, only revealing a barely perceptible heartache.

She gradually came to understand that Su Wen's occasional late-night stays weren't due to laziness.

Instead, they are quietly dealing with things that they may know a little about, but more often than not, things that far exceed their imagination.

Thinking of this,

She felt a little sorry for him.

I just felt that I couldn't help him any more.

So even though Su Wen often puts on a lazy appearance, she still feels happy looking at him.

As for those 'extra' girls that Su Wen met during his mission...

!!!

angry,

The aloof girl snorted coldly.
I'm not going to consider it anymore; let him handle it himself.
