"The car is at the clinic, let's head there first."
Lin Fan carried his luggage, walking side-by-side with Jiangdu Xue towards the clinic.
"You wouldn't believe it, during the break, so many children asked me if I'd be back next year. They even gave me gifts, as if they were afraid I wouldn't return..."
Jiangdu Xue's face was beaming, she chattered non-stop all the way, talking about her own affairs.
"Thank you."
Lin Fan suddenly said.
"Thank me for what?"
Jiangdu Xue turned her head to look at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan smiled and replied, "I thank you on behalf of the children from all the surrounding villages, and I also thank you on behalf of their parents."
"You saying that so suddenly makes it sound like I've made a huge contribution."
Jiangdu Xue was outwardly humble, but inwardly she was overjoyed, even feeling a bit proud.
"You have indeed made a great contribution."
Lin Fan sighed softly, "Perhaps you feel it's insignificant, but for the children, it will undoubtedly affect their entire lives. When I was schooling, I wished I had a good teacher like you..."
"A young and pretty female teacher, right?"
After Jiangdu Xue spoke, a hint of mischievousness flashed in her eyes.
"You know it, so why say it out loud?"
Lin Fan wasn't embarrassed, he said with a thick skin and a smile.
Jiangdu Xue rolled her eyes, "I knew it, all you men think like that."
She suddenly thought of something and asked, "Xiao Fan, if it had been a male teacher who collapsed at the school gate, would you still have tried your best to treat him?"
"Your question doesn't even make sense."
Lin Fan chuckled, "Men wouldn't get the kind of cold illness you have."
Jiangdu Xue glared at him, "Then... if it were a woman, but she wasn't good-looking and was old, what would you do?"
"Then I'd cure her illness and leave after collecting my fee."
Lin Fan said righteously, "If you want to find me in the future, it'll be clearly priced, payment upfront, and I definitely won't work for free."
Jiangdu Xue became a bit unhappy, and resentfully said, "They are also people contributing to the cause of education. They teach and nurture, why must you be so clear about the boundaries?"
Lin Fan retorted stubbornly, "There's no helping it, who told her she was old and not good-looking."
"Look at you."
Jiangdu Xue huffed, her voice laced with disdain, "So you were only interested in my looks!"
"What do you think?"
Lin Fan chuckled, "And don't forget, your youth."
"You person..."
Jiangdu Xue wrinkled her nose. On the surface, she acted angry, but in reality, she was extremely happy.
Every woman hopes to be young and beautiful.
Every woman also understands that as long as she is young and beautiful, she is very likely to have a perfect love!
This is a woman's greatest advantage, and there's nothing vulgar about it.
As they chatted, they had already reached the entrance of the clinic.
"It really is a Wrangler!"
Jiangdu Xue exclaimed, her beautiful eyes lighting up, "Where did your village get such a good car?"
"Why do you care where it came from? Just drive it."
As he spoke, Lin Fan handed the car keys to Jiangdu Xue.
Jiangdu Xue took the car keys and pressed the unlock button. The car's lights flashed twice, accompanied by two beeps.
"Get in!"
Jiangdu Xue was genuinely delighted, like a child receiving a new toy.
After Lin Fan put the luggage in the car, he asked worriedly, "You really have a driver's license, right?"
Tian Mengyao claimed to be an experienced driver, but she had almost caused a car accident several times, leaving him with lingering fear.
Jiangdu Xue lifted her chin arrogantly, "Are you looking down on me?"
"Today, I'll show you my driving skills."
"Let's go!"
Jiangdu Xue started the car and slowly drove forward.
Lin Fan, sitting in the passenger seat, said nervously, "You must be careful, it's okay to go slow, but absolutely no mistakes."
"I know, don't worry."
Jiangdu Xue's small hands gripped the steering wheel tightly, looking somewhat tense herself.
She had once almost driven the car into a ditch, so she had some psychological pressure.
Lin Fan watched the Wrangler SUV move forward as slowly as a tortoise, and felt depressed.
With this skill, she wasn't even half as good as Tian Mengyao!
If he hadn't been reminding her constantly, the car would have already fallen into a ditch.
Luo Dazhuang, who was slicing pork at the market, gaped in disbelief as he saw Lin Fan and Jiangdu Xue in a powerful SUV.
"Teacher Jiangdu?"
Luo Dazhuang was utterly bewildered, "Did they change again so quickly?"
First, there was the foxy woman in the sports car, then a beautiful woman in a white SUV, and now...
Was there any justice in the world?
Teacher Jiangdu had traveled such a long distance to be here, and this brat...
Luo Dazhuang's eyes turned red with anger.
He had taken a liking to Jiangdu Xue during the first parent-teacher meeting.
But he also knew in his heart that she was a legitimate university graduate, and he was completely out of her league.
"Damn it, Lin Fan isn't much better than me, how could Teacher Jiangdu be so blind to fall for this fickle Chen Shimei?"
As Luo Dazhuang muttered this, he suddenly heard his wife, Li Guifang, call out, "Dazhuang, so many people are lining up, why aren't you slicing the meat?"
Li Guifang followed Luo Dazhuang's gaze and said, "Oh, which little vixen is in the car now?"
"What vixen, that's Teacher Jiangdu."
Luo Dazhuang's eyes darted, and he explained, "I was just thinking of giving her some pork, so she'll take better care of our child in the future."
"Oh, you care so much about the child?"
Li Guifang sneered sarcastically, "Save yourself the trouble!"
She watched the Wrangler SUV gradually disappear and clicked her tongue, cursing, "Teacher Jiangdu is not someone you can have ideas about, forget it, hurry up and slice the meat!"
"It's the New Year, how can you speak such vile words?"
Luo Dazhuang was so angry that he threw the butcher knife onto the chopping board and refused to work anymore.
The villagers waiting in line to buy meat saw this and quickly advised, "Don't quarrel, everyone is waiting."
"Yes, what's the big deal, why do you two argue every day?"
"We're all waiting to buy meat to cook at home."
Hearing these words, Luo Dazhuang reluctantly picked up the butcher knife again and smiled at everyone, "I apologize, it's all my wife's fault, I'll deal with her later."
"Deal with what, why don't you live your lives peacefully?"
"You two, you have a car now, you have money, you live in a big house, what are you still arguing about?"
"Exactly, I think you two are just bored."
"If you two are always like this, it will have a very bad influence on the children's education. They talk about this on TV every day!"
