"Beauty! You'll never get married if you're this fierce!" Lu Fan said with a chuckle.
"None of your business? You scoundrel!" Jiang Ruoxin glared at Lu Fan and walked upstairs.
"Damn it! I just looked at you a couple of times, how am I a scoundrel?" Lu Fan was instantly exasperated.
"Wow! In the north, there is a beauty, peerless and alone. One glance toppling cities, another glance toppling kingdoms..."
Jiang Ruoxin, who had just taken a few steps, suddenly beamed. She stopped abruptly. This guy didn't seem like a good person, but he was good at flattering...
"Pah!" Jiang Ruoxin turned around and saw Lu Fan shaking his head and reciting poetry in front of a photo of a girl on the blackboard bulletin board. She spat in anger and turned to leave. Hmph! He really was a scoundrel.
"Heh heh!" Lu Fan chuckled and went upstairs.
He arrived at Meng Jun's office and knocked gently.
Swish... the door opened.
"Hahaha! Lu Fan! You're here. Come in, come in quickly." Principal Meng immediately grabbed Lu Fan's hand and pulled him into the office.
As soon as he entered the office, Lu Fan noticed that the beautiful woman he had met at the stairs was also there.
At this moment, Jiang Ruoxin was also looking at Lu Fan with surprise. She wondered why Principal Meng was so enthusiastic about such a scoundrel.
"Lu Fan, let me introduce you. This is our academy's new teacher, Jiang Ruoxin. She is a top medical student who studied abroad at a renowned university. We went through a lot of trouble to invite her back!" Meng Jun said, pointing to Jiang Ruoxin.
"Oh! Hello, Teacher Jiang! I'm Lu Fan." Lu Fan immediately extended his hand, wanting to shake hands with Jiang Ruoxin.
"Hello!" Jiang Ruoxin did not extend her hand, but greeted him proudly. Lu Fan guessed that if it weren't for the principal's introduction, she wouldn't have said those two words.
Lu Fan smiled awkwardly and withdrew his hand.
Meng Jun was slightly taken aback, not expecting Jiang Ruoxin to be so proud. He quickly introduced again, "Teacher Jiang! This is our academy's honorary principal, Lu Fan! Today is also his first day teaching! The school hasn't had time to arrange an office for him yet. How about you two share an office for now!"
"Uh???" Jiang Ruoxin was clearly surprised. This scoundrel was the school's honorary principal? It was unbelievable! No... share an office with me?
"Principal...! I...." Jiang Ruoxin was about to say she disagreed, but then she felt it was her first day at work... The words she was about to say were swallowed back.
Their office was not large, with two desks placed opposite each other. Lu Fan didn't feel anything, but Jiang Ruoxin felt particularly awkward. She always felt that this scoundrel in front of her was peeking at her.
So Jiang Ruoxin tilted her head and thought for a moment, then placed a water cup with a cartoon panda pattern at the midpoint where their eyes would meet when they looked up. This way, when she looked up, she would see a panda.
Pfft... Jiang Ruoxin couldn't help but laugh at herself.
"Teacher Jiang! Your clothes are really beautiful!" Lu Fan said, trying to break the awkwardness.
"Of course! When you buy clothes, you buy beautiful ones! It's not like I'm poor!" Jiang Ruoxin rolled her eyes and said meaningfully.
Lu Fan swallowed and glanced at his slightly worn clothes! Damn! My clothes are also designer brands! They were just bought during an off-season sale. It's been a while since I bought them. But it hasn't been two years! Okay! She didn't mean it, she wasn't targeting me. We have no enmity.
"Oh! Sorry, I wasn't talking about you!" Just as Lu Fan thought it didn't matter, Jiang Ruoxin added another blow.
Lu Fan was instantly flustered. Was this a reminder meant for him?
"By the way! Principal Lu, what is your educational background?" Jiang Ruoxin suddenly asked, her beautiful eyes raised.
"Oh! I... university... didn't graduate!" Lu Fan thought for a long time. It seemed that was his only qualification, and lying wasn't his nature.
"Didn't graduate?" Jiang Ruoxin's eyes widened like eggs. Is this kid Principal Meng's brother-in-law? Or does he have connections in the education bureau!? Hmph! It seems he's just coasting along! Hmph!
At this moment, the office door opened, and Meng Jun walked in.
"Lu Fan, this is your Chinese medicine practitioner's license and honorary principal appointment letter! We've got it all done for you. Your first class is this afternoon in the school auditorium! Get ready!" Meng Jun said, placing the license and appointment letter on Lu Fan's desk.
"Principal Meng! I... what should I talk about?" Lu Fan was a bit dazed. He had never lectured before. Moreover, he had many classmates at the school.
"Haha! Just improvise, improvise!" Meng Jun said and turned to leave.
Jiang Ruoxin stared blankly, feeling like she had been tricked. Such a large medical college, and they issue fake certificates? Should she consider changing places as soon as she arrived?
...
The first class in the afternoon, the entire auditorium was packed. Among them were not only students studying Chinese medicine but also many studying Western medicine and some school teachers. They had all heard yesterday that Lu Fan was going to give a lecture, so many people came. Those who had witnessed Lu Fan's medical skills before came to support him and make friends.
Those who didn't know Lu Fan's medical skills came to watch the excitement, wanting to know how capable this Lu Fan really was. Was this honorary principal just a joke!?
Jiang Ruoxin also came. Although she studied Western medicine, she wanted to see what this so-called honorary principal was all about. Whether she should stay. She had studied abroad for so many years to return and serve her country, not to mess around.
Xu Hongye also came. Lu Fan's honorary principal position made him, an honorary principal himself, feel threatened, so he wanted to find an opportunity to get rid of this kid. This first lecture was a good opportunity. Although this kid's medical skills were indeed brilliant, he had never been on a podium before. If he lectured poorly... or became a laughingstock... hehe!
Lu Fan took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, then walked onto the podium.
"Hello everyone! I am Lu Fan!" Lu Fan introduced himself casually.
"Kid! Aren't you a stand-up comedian? Why don't you say you're Xueqin?" someone from the audience suddenly shouted.
Hahaha... a burst of laughter erupted from below.
Xu Hongye's face lit up with a smile. That was a student who admired him greatly, and this student was performing very well.
"Thank you!" Lu Fan smiled faintly and gave the student a thumbs-up, saying, "I was worried it would be a dull moment, but I didn't expect the first joke to land because of you!"
"Hahaha!" Another burst of laughter followed.
