Chapter 73: Crybaby

“Well, as a teacher of the Academy, although you didn’t take any classes here before, won’t you help a student in need, teacher?” Bai Yunxian gathered his courage as he decided to get things straight. He didn’t want to live a life constantly being wary of others anymore. Besides, even if this man gave off a bone-chilling aura, he didn’t seem to have any bad intentions towards others for no reason.

“So, exactly what kind of ’need’ you have that needs me to fulfill it? Be more specific. Or don’t tell me, you couldn’t have come to me after hearing those rumors right? I don’t think I’ll be able to satisfy your desire, though.”

!!!

The man’s eyes were full of bad intentions, to tease Bai Yunxian as he spoke. And just as he expected, Bai Yunxian’s poker face flushed like a red light in shame as soon as he realized the meaning behind his words.

“N-no! I-I didn’t mean anything like this! Please, I mean…!”

Due to his stiffness, his words were getting more stupid, which made the other party laugh as the corner of his mouth was raised, his eyes also carried a hint of amusement as he held his chin and looked and Bai Yunxian’s reaction silently.

“Of course I know you didn’t come for that, your reaction is quite… or don’t tell me, you never got into a relationship till now?”

This man, was he teasing me for his own amusement?

For some reason, Bai Yunxian felt utterly annoyed over the guy, his temper got ticked even more when he saw subtle smile on his half-covered face.

Calm down, Bai Yunxian. You didn’t come here for things, you have to stay calm if you want to achieve your goal.

After repeating the same words a hundred times inside his heart, Bai Yunxian retracted his expressions as he calmly said, “I don’t think it is right for a teacher to peek into a student’s personal life, also, I do have some things I would like you to teach me, please.”

“Hmm, in that case, you better go ask some other teacher for help. Here, I’m just a teacher in name only. I don’t think I can be of any help to you in that regard.” Without any second thought, the man waved his hand, asking Bai Yunxian to leave.

What? He is telling me to leave already? But I can’t just leave like this, I need to learn this no matter what!

Bai Yunxian panicked at the thought as he quickly said, “Teacher, I want to learn the method of creating inscription spells. I need a permission letter to enter the secret section of the library. The other teachers, I don’t know any of them, so I can’t ask for their permission right away. Please teacher, just help me with this once!”

Bai Yunxian was desperate, he could see that very well. After a long time of staring at him, the man didn’t show any sign of moving.

’What? Does he not want to grant this small request? Does he really want something from me as a payment? I can’t believe he is being so unreasonable and acting petty for a teacher of the Academy. I just wanted this little help, and he can’t even do that. What they said was indeed true, he is such a cold-hearted, cruel man, a demon instructor. Such a big man, yet has a heart smaller than a shrimp…’

Bai Yunxian was looking at the man with teary eyes filled with all the complaints of the world, literally turning it into a river of resentment.

Though, he wasn’t sure why he felt so emotional and agitated that he was on the verge of crying like a baby, Bai Yunxian lowered his head in order to hide his overwhelming emotions that were written all over his face.

’I think I know what’s going on inside his mind.’

As if knowing what was going on inside Bai Yunxian’s mind, he smirked like a devil, and was able to tell that he almost cried out loudly, he picked up a piece of paper and pen from the side table as he wrote something silently.

“Here, this will do. Now don’t start crying like a baby, you are too big to do that now.” The man held the piece of paper in front of his face that was hanging down as he said, however, he wasn’t prepared for the following incident afterwards.

Drip, drip, drip…

!

“What…” He was astonished, and speechless when Bai Yunxian looked up at him, tears tricking down his cheeks.

“Wahhh…”

’God, was the teasing too much for him to take?’

It’s the first time she saw someone crying so helplessly in front of her, what’s more, she was the one who made him cry like that, it was right for her to get flustered and not knowing what to do.

Bai Yunxian cried hard and harder, for some reason, his tears didn’t stop flowing as he cried, as a result, his tears and snots were all over when he tried to cover his face with both hands and continued crying.

Perhaps he felt a sense of familiarity within this man, Bai Yunxian couldn’t control his tears coming out of his eyes, rather, he started howling after getting patted by him and hearing those consoling words from him.

“Why now? There, there, didn’t I already give the permission? I can’t believe a grown man like you would cry like a baby.” The man sighed as he came down and hugged Bai Yunxian, patting his back to calm him down.

After half an hour later,

Bai Yunxian was sitting on the sofa with a pair of eyes that were puffed up like carp due to crying too much, holding a cup of warm tea, his face was flushed after crying, while his neck seemed like blood would drip down from there due to how red it was.

“Feeling better? Or want to continue crying a bit more?”
