Chapter 26: Stay Away From Me
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Truth be told, Huo Tian really didn’t want to go against Huo You time and time again. No matter what was the reason that had caused the two of them to have been switched for more than a decade. It was undeniable that the original Huo Tian had enjoyed a lot of materialistic conditions that should have belonged to Huo You.
Therefore, no matter how hard Huo You tried to provoke her, Huo Tian was always very tolerant towards her. However, she realized that Huo You didn’t know when to stop and was constantly exhausting her patience.
Take now, for example, Huo Tian didn’t feel like tolerating Huo You’s provocation anymore.
She snatched the student record form from Huo You and said expressionlessly, “No matter which teacher you’re looking for, he’s not here right now. As a good student, I don’t think you should enter the teacher’s office without permission. It wouldn’t be good if the teacher misunderstood your intentions. Don’t you agree, Student Huo?”
Huo You’s eyes widened in anger at Huo Tian’s accusation. “I’ve never seen someone like you who distorts right from wrong. You were the one who let me in, and you’re also the one who had sneaked into the office when the teacher wasn’t around. Oh yeah, you can’t be trying to steal something, could you?”
Huo Tian was speechless by Huo You’s great imagination. She pointed at the surveillance camera in the corner of the office. “Did you see that? That thing is called a surveillance camera. No thief would be stupid enough to steal from a room with surveillance cameras.”
Huo You became even angrier. She probably didn’t expect Huo Tian to mock her intelligence. “So what if there are surveillance cameras? If I tell the others that you stole something from the teacher’s office, who do you think they will believe? Me or you?”
“Why should I care if others will believe me? Is there a reason why I must gain their trust?”
Huo Tian looked at Huo You pitifully and sincerely suggested, “I remember that you used to be quite smart. Your results have always been in the top three of the cohort, but you always seem so stupid when you meet me. I think you should stay away from me in the future, right?”
“You?!”
Huo You was fuming so much that felt like she was going to explode. She really didn’t understand why Huo Tian could remain so calm even now.
She had already been kicked out of the Huo Family, and from now on, she could only live in the dirty and messy slums. She was also about to drop out of school and would probably have to work to survive for the rest of her life. But why didn’t Huo Tian show any despair on her face? What Huo You wanted to see the most was Huo Tian’s despair towards fate!
Huo Tian was also afraid that Huo You would faint from anger. She frowned and said, “What’s wrong with you? You don’t even like me, yet you keep trying to get close to me. People who don’t know you might think that you have a crush on me!”
“You’re so shameless! Who would have a crush on you?!” Huo You clenched her fists and wanted to slap Huo Tian, but she remembered the surveillance cameras in the office and could only suppress her anger.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps rang out. Teacher Wang pushed open the door and came in to see two people in front of her desk, one seated and one standing.
He nodded at Huo You. “Which teacher are you looking for? Take a seat on an empty seat and wait. The other teachers should be back soon.”
“Teacher, I am…”
Huo You wanted to say that she was a student in Teacher Wang’s class, but she realized that his attention was not on her.
Teacher Wang only had eyes for Huo Tian, who was sitting obediently in front of his desk. “Huo Tian, are you anxious from waiting?”
Huo Tian stood up to give up her seat to Teacher Wang, but he pressed on Huo Tian’s shoulder. “It’s alright, you can sit. Teacher can just sit beside you.”
Huo Tian placed the student record form she had filled up in front of Teacher Wang. “Teacher, this is my student record.”
Teacher Wang took the form and looked at it happily. “It’s really not bad…”
Huo Tian didn’t know what the teacher was happy about. She asked curiously, “What did you say isn’t bad? My handwriting is very ordinary.”
Huo You, who was listening to their conversation, couldn’t help but snort and mutter softly, “How can you call such scrawls ordinary?”
Teacher Wang’s hearing was within the range of a normal person. He did not hear Huo You’s mumbling, but Huo Tian, who had sharp senses, heard Huo You’s complaints clearly.
Huo Tian couldn’t be bothered to let Huo You continue to ruin her mood. She said unhappily, “Teacher Wang, I still have some unfinished work to do. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going home.”
Huo You gloated and said, “Yeah, Teacher Wang, hurry up and help Huo Tian with her withdrawal procedures. You can’t hold her up on her work. After all, Huo Tian will have to work to support herself in the future!”
Only then did Teacher Wang turn his gaze to Huo You. His face no longer wore the amicable expression he had when facing Huo Tian. His serious expression could make the most mischievous student in the school instantly behave themselves and it was even harder for Huo You to withstand the pressure from his gaze.
“Student, I don’t know which class you are from, but I think respecting a teacher is a must for every student.. When a teacher is talking to someone else, it’s a basic courtesy for you to stay quiet at the side.”
