CHAPTER 405: CHAPTER 400: THE BEST TEACHER

While teaching, Ye Qiu kept his eye on Liu Tong, speeding up where Liu Tong understood and explaining in detail where he did not. After a couple of rounds, Liu Tong realized that Ye Qiu was deliberately taking care of him, so he studied even more diligently.

The earnest Liu Tong didn’t notice that the noise in the classroom gradually quieted down, and not just him, other students were also listening attentively.

Mathematics is a very basic subject, and many people think it is useless, but such ideas are only held by those who don’t understand it. If mathematics were useless, why has it been a compulsory subject from ancient times till now, both abroad and domestically?

Mathematics is the foundation of all sciences and can greatly enhance one’s thinking ability. It’s not just scientists who engage in research but also businessmen and even street vendors who cannot do without mathematics. Who can claim mathematics is useless? If you don’t learn math well, even if you inherit your family’s business, you will not understand financial statements. What if someone deceives you?

So, despite some of the Future Rich Generations causing disturbances, there are also some with foresight. Seeing that Ye Qiu’s teachings were truly beneficial, they calmed down and listened attentively.

"Bang!" Just when the students were earnestly listening, the back door was kicked open and in walked three distinctively different boys.

The leader was about 1.9 meters tall with blonde hair, wearing a silver cross necklace around his neck, dressed in a skull vest and ripped jeans, and a dragon tattoo inked on his arm.

Ye Qiu didn’t agree with his taste, but he was indeed very handsome. With his tall stature and long legs, he made his chaotic attire seem upscale. This was Xuanyuan Junrui, the male protagonist of this world, whose family owns the largest directorship of this aristocratic school.

The one slightly shorter behind him was Ouyang Yanming, with chestnut-colored hair. He wore the school uniform but had unbuttoned its top two buttons, giving off a carefree, unrestrained vibe. On the surface, this boy seemed warm, but his eyes were indifferent, as if unable to deeply connect with anyone.

The last one, with black hair, was Sima Kai. As a mixed-race, he didn’t dye his hair because he felt black was the coolest. He wore a sports jersey and held a basketball, winking at the girls in the class as soon as he entered.

When the three walked in, the classroom fell silent for a moment, followed by the excited screams of the girls.

The girls, understandable, but why did Ye Qiu see some of the boys also going crazy? He found this blind adoration quite eye-stinging.

Ye Qiu couldn’t afford to provoke these three for the time being, and he didn’t want to bother maintaining class order. The best method to ignore this was to turn around and continue teaching.

Right after kicking the door open, the three seated themselves. Xuanyuan Junrui, surprised, glanced over at Liu Tong beside the lecture stand, then squinted his eyes dangerously. Ouyang Yanming, appearing indifferent, glanced over and then disinterestedly started to sleep, while Sima Kai amusingly tapped his basketball repeatedly.

Well, there were a few students listening to the lecture just now. But since these three entered, only Liu Tong continued to pay attention. Anyway, Ye Qiu was actually teaching just for him; as long as Liu Tong could follow, that was enough.

An hour of lecture, one seriously teaching and the other earnestly listening, swiftly passed. However, others might have found it boring, and a few even left midway through the now scantily attended class. By the end of the class, half of the seats were empty.

Xuanyuan Junrui gave a look to one of his underlings, who immediately obediently said: "Liu Tong, our Brother Jun needs to speak with you for a bit."

Liu Tong paused while packing up his backpack, then tightly gripped the strap. So, it was finally happening? He was about to follow them when he heard Ye Qiu’s voice overhead.

"Xuanyuan Junrui, may I ask if you were looking for Liu Tong for something? I was just about to find him myself as well,"

With one foot already stepping out of the classroom, Xuanyuan Junrui paused, staring fiercely at Ye Qiu: "Oh? Since the teacher is looking for him, then I’ll find Liu Tong some other time."

Listening to his words, it seemed he didn’t plan to let Liu Tong off easily. Ye Qiu stood aloof, meeting his gaze with a light tone: "Then I thank you, Xuanyuan student."

For some reason, Xuanyuan Junrui felt that Ye Qiu, the class teacher, had a threatening and disdainful look in his eyes. He snorted coldly and turned his head away, unwilling to admit that for a moment he had actually been frightened.

"Teacher." Liu Tong, following behind Ye Qiu, seemed to have finally made up his mind, looking earnestly at Ye Qiu, "Teacher, you don’t have to worry about me. They have power and influence, and you are no match for them. It’s okay, I’m used to it." Saying so, he lowered his head in shame and sadness, although he greatly craved the teacher’s protection, he couldn’t burden him.

"Liu Tong." Ye Qiu looked at him seriously, "Teacher was wrong before, but since I’ve decided to protect you now, I absolutely won’t go back on my word. Don’t worry, I’m an adult, they wouldn’t dare to do much to me."

"Really?"

"Really." Hearing Ye Qiu’s affirmative answer, Liu Tong smiled happily.

Seeing his smile, Ye Qiu was also stunned for a moment. Although Liu Tong was frail, it was due to malnutrition; however, his looks weren’t poor, especially his eyes, which were bright and spirited, though mostly hidden behind his bangs.

"Let’s go have your hair cut, teacher will take you."

Liu Tong hesitated for a moment, then nodded his head upon seeing the expectant look in Ye Qiu’s eyes.

After getting his hair cut, Liu Tong really transformed into a handsome young boy. However, due to long-term malnutrition, his complexion was a bit sallow; Ye Qiu decided to properly nourish him from now on.

After sending Liu Tong back to the dormitory, Ye Qiu turned on the computer. He had just lied to the kid that Xuanyuan Junrui wouldn’t do anything to him; but in this world, having money could really do anything.

If he truly was just a teacher, they would easily make him lose his job, and even make other schools afraid to hire him. Therefore, he had to do something as a form of backup, so after understanding this world, he had chosen the Hacker God skill, which makes many problems solvable with the internet.

After sending a few programs to various software companies’ emails, Ye Qiu browsed through the Xuanyuan Family’s corporate backend, and after a complete check, surprisingly found no evidence of crime, which somewhat impressed him.

Either the Xuanyuan Family was really abiding law in business or they had erased all the evidence.

If it was the former, it would indeed make Ye Qiu genuinely admire them, but if it was the latter, that made the Xuanyuan Family somewhat terrifying.

Although no evidence was found, he discovered another interesting thing; the current lady of the Xuanyuan Family turned out to be Xuanyuan Junrui’s stepmother, and she came from a civilian family. So, was this why he despised civilians?
