Just as Lin Mo was about to speak, he felt a small hand tugging at his clothes. Turning around, he met An Youyu's resentful gaze. "What's wrong?"

An Youyu glared at Lin Mo angrily and said in a barely audible voice, "Take care of my lateness first."

Lin Mo chuckled softly.

It's clear that An Youyu takes this matter very seriously.

Ultimately, it's because they were too naive.

"cough--"

Lin Mo cleared his throat and changed the subject: "Principal, there's something else I need to tell you before we talk about the plan."

"what's up?"

Ke Renyi's eyes flashed with surprise and uncertainty, "You haven't gotten into trouble again, have you?"

Lin Mo rolled his eyes. "What do you mean by 'again'? Principal, I've only been at the school for two days. What trouble have I caused before? As the head of the school, you need to be more careful with your words. Please be mindful in the future."

Ke Renyi: "..."

Qi Bei and Xia Lingrou exchanged a silent glance, both unable to suppress their laughter.

For a student to dare speak to the principal like that is truly...

This is a bit lawless!

Ke Renyi glared at Lin Mo with annoyance and said with a smile, "Don't be arrogant, kid. If you keep being so disrespectful, I'll cancel your academic credit restrictions."

Lin Mo chuckled and didn't respond to that.

Ke Renyi asked, "Speak, what is it?"

Lin Mo didn't hide anything and told the truth about An Youyu being late this morning. He pointed to An Youyu, who had her head down, and said half-jokingly, "Principal, she was almost crying. You'd better watch your words."

Ke Renyi rolled his eyes at Lin Mo, then beckoned to An Youyu, "Girl, come here."

An Youyu glanced at Lin Mo, and seeing Lin Mo nod, she sat down on the other side of Ke Renyi, quietly admitting her mistake, "Principal, I'm sorry, being late was Youyu's fault. I promise I won't make this mistake again. Please put in a good word for me with the teachers. I... I really didn't mean to..."

Ke Renyi interrupted An Youyu with a laugh, rubbing her head, "What nonsense are you talking about? You clearly stayed up all night yesterday managing the school's social media account, which is why you overslept today. Besides, I was planning to give you and Lin Mo a day off today anyway."

"what?"

An Youyu was stunned.

Is today a day off?

Is there such a thing?

As far as she could remember, the principal hadn't informed her or Lin Mo yesterday!

Thinking about it, she looked at Lin Mo on the other side, her clear eyes blinking incessantly, the questioning intent in them particularly obvious.

Lin Mo chuckled softly but did not respond.

He was curious to see what Ke Renyi would say next.

The girl's subtle movements naturally did not escape Ke Renyi's notice. He coughed and said, "Girl, I'm getting old and my memory is getting worse, so I forgot to tell you about this yesterday. But it's okay, I've already spoken to the two teachers in the Antique Restoration Department. There are no classes today, so don't worry."

Hearing Ke Renyi say that, An Youyu breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good, that's good."

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Ke Renyi looked towards the doorway and said, "Come in."

The next second, the door was pushed open, and two people walked in. They were Li Zhao and Ye Liu, the two antique restoration masters that Xia Bei had just recruited from Tsinghua University.

At this moment, both of them looked frustrated. They had prepared for a long time yesterday for their first professional class this morning, but they waited and waited in the classroom for the only student to show up.

Seeing that it was almost 10 a.m., the two discussed it for a while and decided to go and ask Ke Renyi about the situation.

Upon seeing that the visitors were Li Zhao and Ye Liu, Ke Renyi's expression froze.

Li Zhao spoke first, "Principal Ke, where is that student from the Antiquities Restoration Department? Ye Liu and I have been waiting in the classroom for almost two hours, but we haven't seen him."

Ye Liu nodded in agreement, "Yes! There's only one student in the entire Department of Antique Restoration, and he doesn't even come to class. Li Zhao and I really don't know what to do, so we came to ask you what's going on."

Now, Ke Renyi was completely embarrassed.

Just after I told the teacher that there were no classes today, Li Zhao and Ye Liu came to my door.

This……

What?

An Youyu stared blankly at Li Zhao and Ye Liu with her mouth slightly open, muttering, "Didn't we have no classes?"

Qi Bei and Xia Lingrou, the master and apprentice, both lowered their heads, their shoulders trembling.

The atmosphere in the office suddenly became awkward.

Seeing this, Lin Mo spoke up to help Ke Renyi out of the predicament, "Hello, teachers. Here's the situation. The principal originally planned to give us a holiday today and postpone the first professional class of the Department of Antique Restoration to tomorrow. Perhaps he's getting old and his memory isn't as good. He was just saying that he seemed to have forgotten to inform you and was about to call you when you arrived."

After saying that, he asked Ke Renyi in a serious tone, "Principal, is that right?"

"Ah...yes, yes, yes."

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Ke Renyi nodded repeatedly.

Even after all that, Lin Mo still managed to smooth things over. Tsk, this kid really knows how to talk nonsense!

An Youyu stared at Lin Mo intently, seemingly understanding what was going on. Feeling extremely guilty, she quickly lowered her head and grabbed a cushion from the sofa to cover herself.

I can't see you, nobody can see me...

Ke Renyi smiled apologetically, "Teachers, I'm really sorry, I'm getting old and can't control my own life anymore."

Seeing that Ke Renyi was being so polite, Li Zhao and Ye Liu didn't know what to say and both said it was alright.

"Oh, by the way, Principal Ke, although there are no professional classes scheduled today, Ye Liu and I would still like to meet that student from the Antiquities Restoration Department. Do you have his contact information?"

As Li Zhao spoke, Ye Liu nodded in agreement.

To be honest, Xia Bei's Department of Antique Restoration was only recently established. To put it bluntly, Xia Bei only provided one classroom, had no resources whatsoever, and had only one pitiful student.

In this situation, the two were very eager to meet the student, and their purpose was quite simple.

That is to reassure the student and persuade them not to change their major.

Otherwise, without a single student, the title of teacher would be somewhat undeserved.

It's certainly nice to get paid for nothing, but it feels a bit guilty if you don't do any work at all.

Upon hearing this, Ke Renyi couldn't help but look at An Youyu on his right. Seeing that she had hidden her head behind the cushion, he couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Don't hide, come and recognize your teacher."

Lin Mo, Qi Bei, and Xia Lingrou all had smiles on their faces.

Seeing that she couldn't avoid it any longer, An Youyu reluctantly put down the cushion, carefully stood up, and bowed to Li Zhao and Ye Liu, "Greetings, teachers. My name is An Youyu, and I am the student you are talking about."

When Li Zhao and Ye Liu saw An Youyu's appearance clearly, their eyes were filled with amazement.

Li Zhao spoke first, "I recognize you, you're An Youyu, our school's image ambassador, right?"

"it's me."

An Youyu nodded.

Ye Liu nudged Li Zhao's shoulder and asked in confusion, "How did you know that?"

"Go and meet the guests."

Li Zhao laughed and pointed at Lin Mo, "And this kid, his name is Lin Mo, he's also our school's image ambassador. The promotional video that Lin Mo and An Youyu filmed was so popular on social media, it's normal that you don't know about it if you don't use the internet."

Ye Liu glanced at Lin Mo, then turned his attention to An Youyu, and exclaimed from the bottom of his heart, "What a beautiful little girl."

The next second, a look of confusion appeared on his face, "With looks like that, why study antique restoration? Wouldn't it be better to become a celebrity?"

Lin Mo sighed inwardly.

Sure enough, it's that kind of talk again.

When will this unhealthy era of entertainment change?

Chapter 527 What is a face?

After hearing Ye Liu's words, An Youyu gave a clear answer, "Teacher, I like antique restoration, I don't like being a celebrity."

Ye Liu wanted to say something more, but Li Zhao stopped him and whispered, "This girl was able to get Xia Bei to establish an antiquities restoration department for her. Do you think she's short of money? Besides, the entertainment industry is such a dirty place, it's not suitable for her."

"Too."

Ye Liu nodded belatedly, "I was being too attached to appearances."

Li Zhao chuckled and said, "I thought it would be a boy, but it turned out to be a girl, and such a pretty one at that. Tsk, that's good. At least it will keep me and Teacher Ye Liu in a good mood during class from now on."

"cough--"

Lin Mo stood up at the opportune moment and shook hands with Li Zhaoye first. "Hello, teachers. My name is Lin Mo, and I am An Youyu's boyfriend."

"Object?"

Li Zhao was initially surprised, but then some guesses formed in his mind. He familiarly put his arm around Lin Mo's shoulder and teased him in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "No, although An Youyu is indeed a bit too beautiful for her age, you don't need to be so wary, do you?"

"I……"

"Ye Liu and I are just An Youyu's teachers, nothing more. There's no need to be wary of us. We both have families."

"I……"

"Really? I'm not lying to you."

"..."

Lin Mo suppressed the urge to roll his eyes. "Teacher Li, I really didn't mean that. I just wanted to get to know you so I could sneak into your classroom and audit An Youyu's classes later."

He wasn't lying; these were his heartfelt words, spoken without a trace of embellishment.

Furthermore, he didn't believe that Li Zhao and Ye Liu posed any specific threat to him...

Li Zhao was taken aback. "Is that so?"

"if not?"

"Well, maybe the teacher is overthinking it."

"It's not a possibility, it's a certainty. 'Possibly thinking too much' only means there's a chance of overthinking, but it's not certain. However, the reality is certain, so the teacher is definitely overthinking."
