Chapter 127 Live in the Moment
Chapter 127 Live in the Moment
"Hi, Teacher Li, why are you here so early!"
Ning Caicai, arm in arm with Ye Lan, walked happily toward the crowd.
Teacher Li quickly composed herself: "Oh, we're about to gather for the opening ceremony, so we teachers came down early."
"By the way, Teacher Ning, who is this handsome guy?"
Teacher Li shifted her gaze to Ye Lan.
When the two of them walked over, she had only one thought in her mind.
Perfect match!
A perfect match!
A match made in heaven!
Ye Lan wore a black hoodie on top and black casual pants on the bottom, with her hands in her pockets, giving off a cool and aloof vibe.
There is also a sense of relaxation.
It gives people a sense of ambiguity.
Ning Caicai looked at Ye Lan with delight and said proudly, "His name is Ye Lan, and he's my boyfriend."
Upon hearing this, everyone wore expressions of disbelief, their jaws dropping in astonishment.
Then, glancing around, his gaze fell on Zhang Shaohua.
There are reasons why people don't like your son.
The boy in front of them not only outshone Zhang Shaohua's son, Zhang Yue, in appearance.
Their economic strength is also something the other side cannot match.
Everyone else is driving an Audi A6, and your son is still riding an electric scooter.
Moreover, Ye Lan looks a little younger than Zhang Yue.
Zhang Shaohua's face turned red with anger, his head swelling as red as a boiled pig's head.
He felt that Ning Caicai had deliberately brought Ye Lan in front of him to show off.
In fact it does.
Ning Caicai wanted to use this action to tell Zhang Shaohua, "I have a boyfriend, so keep your son away from me."
"Teacher Ning is a true role model. She married a rich second-generation at such a young age. We should all learn from her."
Zhang Shaohua's smile was forced and looked disgusting.
He thought Ye Lan was so young.
He couldn't possibly have bought an Audi A6 on his own, so he must be a rich kid.
That would ruin Ning Caicai's reputation and leave her with the impression of being greedy and materialistic in the eyes of all the teachers.
Ye Lan narrowed her eyes slightly, staring at Zhang Shaohua with an unfriendly gaze.
Since he was pretending to be Ning Caicai's boyfriend today, he naturally couldn't let her be bullied.
"Sigh, some people, they can't afford it themselves, so they think others can't either."
"At such an advanced age, his mind has not grown at all, and his vision has become narrower and narrower."
"People with conjunctivitis are the most dangerous."
Ye Lan retorted without holding back.
Ning Caicai looked at Ye Lan's well-defined profile, her eyes filled with tenderness and love.
At that moment, she thought Ye Lan, who was protecting her, was incredibly cool, and her eyes shone with admiration.
All the teachers knew that Zhang Shaohua had a heart condition, and they were afraid that Ye Lan would upset him and cause him serious harm.
He quickly changed the subject.
"Ms. Ning, did your boyfriend really buy that car with his own money?"
"Yes, it cost 45 RMB. He just bought it without hesitation."
"Wow, you're so rich! What does your boyfriend do for a living?"
"He is a game streamer."
Ning Caicai sounded somewhat unsure of herself when she said this.
After all, in the eyes of most teachers, game streamers are a group of good-for-nothing troublemakers.
Not only did they waste their own youth and future, but they also influenced other students.
Sure enough, the teachers' gazes changed from admiration to disdain.
Zhang Shaohua sarcastically remarked, "So you're just a game streamer with no future. Teacher Ning, I'm not trying to be mean, but your taste in partners is really terrible."
“My son is such a good person, with a degree from Tsinghua or Peking University, he has a bright future ahead of him.”
Ning Caicai looked helplessly at Ye Lan, filled with regret.
If I had known this would happen, I should have fabricated an identity on my way to school.
But Ye Lan found it amusing. "Compared to the vague future, I prefer the feeling of holding the present in my hands."
"One cannot simultaneously possess youth and the understanding of youth. I earn over a million a month, how do you know I have no future?"
"You can't have your cake and eat it too. Just like me, I've gained money, but I've also lost my worries."
Ning Caicai was completely speechless.
So Ye Lan is quite the chatterbox in front of others too.
However, Ye Lan was right about one thing.
Live in the moment.
Zhang Shaohua was speechless after Ye Lan's retort; he didn't even know how to refute her.
The future is something they forcibly imposed on Zhang Yue.
Does good academic performance guarantee a bright future?
They were a group of teachers, and none of them had poor academic performance.
But why can't we see the future clearly?
Zhang Shaohua recalled that when he was young, his parents seemed to have high expectations for him, but now he was clearly just another face in the crowd.
Ring ring, ring ring...
Just then, the bell rang, signaling the end of get out of class.
"All students, assemble now, get ready for the sports meet!"
The physical education teacher shouted through a megaphone.
Students flocked to the three teaching buildings, crowding the corridors. They excitedly ran downstairs and headed towards the playground.
"It's so good to be young." Looking at the energetic teenagers, Ye Lan sighed with envy.
"You're only three or four years older than them, but you talk like you're so old." Ning Caicai rolled her eyes.
Ye Lan didn't care: "You don't understand. School and society are completely different environments. Even though I've only been out of school for half a year, I've already lost the innocence I had when I was young."
"One cannot simultaneously possess youth and the understanding of youth; at the time, it all seemed so ordinary!"
Ye Lan sighed heavily, as if venting all the resentment she had felt from working these past few days.
Ning Caicai also felt a sense of loss; it seemed that this was indeed the case.
During my university years, my roommates and I would eat instant noodles, enjoy the air conditioning, and watch our favorite movies together.
That feeling of joy is something I can no longer experience.
The teacher next to them listened to Ye Lan and Ning Caicai's conversation and felt a pang of sadness.
The word "youth" is often associated with both beauty and extravagance.
"Perhaps Ning Caicai's boyfriend is right; living in the moment is the best choice."
"People should enjoy life while they can, otherwise they won't be able to enjoy themselves when they get old, and they'll just be sitting in a recliner watching others dance in the square every day."
"It's not even the future yet. Who knows what might happen one day? We're a bunch of old folks, yet we don't see things as clearly as a teenager."
.........
The teachers' opinions immediately turned in favor of Ye Lan, and this feeling of being ignored made Zhang Shaohua even angrier.
"Fine, fine, you deliberately found a rich kid to embarrass me, huh?"
"You just wait, you'll be crying during the match."
Zhang Shaohua picked up his phone and called the game booster: "Where are you?"
"Damn it, stop rushing me. I drank too much last night and I'm already on my way."
"Don't be late!"
"Okay, okay."
