The package has assigned me way too many objects.

"If you get distracted, look at the countdown to the final exam on the wall to adjust your study habits. No exam failure will be a Waterloo for your life. Nothing is absolute. However, every success is an accumulation for your future, so don't look down on your exam results. You can study freely for the rest of the time."

After Ms. Iori finished speaking, Chu Yinan took out his textbook to review some forgotten points, when he heard the female teacher, who hadn't left yet, say:

"Chu Yinan, come to my office. I'll tell you about the lessons you've missed recently."

In class, Risa Iori doesn't show special favor to anyone, but there's a turning point here, except for Chu Yinan. It's fair to say that, apart from this student, this female teacher has never called anyone to her office. She usually just calls them to the hallway for a few words and that's it. If you really want to talk to her, the student has to take the initiative.

However, Chu Yinan was someone whose presence was easily overlooked. He wasn't particularly active in class, and he had just returned from a two-week leave. It was understandable that Iori Risa asked him to check on his studies. Even the most gossipy classmates didn't pay attention to this small matter and continued to review their material or secretly chat and slack off.

Chu Yinan picked up his pen and followed behind Ms. Iori's ample hips to her office.

I haven't seen Ms. Iori for half a month, and she has changed offices.

It seems the original office was being renovated and the air conditioning was being replaced, so the teacher in that office was moved to another office on the laboratory floor, where it was very quiet.

Risa Iori's workstation is in a corner, which sounds like a "cold palace" position, but it is actually quite good. It is near the window and has a nice view outside. Moreover, you don't have to worry about people coming and going in this position, which means it is quite private.

Having grown closer to the female teacher in black stockings, Chu Yinan lost his initial reserve and quickly moved a chair to sit next to her.

"Ms. Iori has changed seats. Didn't you bring your two pots of daisies?" Chu Yinan looked at her desk, not because he particularly liked the plants, but just to start a conversation.

Risa Iori smiled gently, pressed down on the back of her skirt and sat down, picking up a new pot of chrysanthemums from the floor:

"Here it is. Why are you so interested in the teacher's chrysanthemums? But Bachmann took the last one, so I bought a new one. They haven't bloomed yet~"

"If Iori-sensei's chrysanthemums were in full bloom, they would be so beautiful!"

There was no one else in the office. Iori Risa pulled Chu Yinan's chair closer, then hugged him.

"Let's not talk about that. You said you'd take a week off, but it's been extended by a week. You haven't been to school for half a month."

Chapter 63: It's a familiar location, a familiar perspective.

"Well, the situation was unexpected. Actually, I wanted to come back to school a few days ago, but the day I finally got things sorted out was Thursday. My family thought that if I went to school on Friday, it would be the weekend, so I shouldn't go back. So I've been resting until today."

Chu Yinan looked curiously at the homeroom teacher's new workstation. The desk was as neat and simple as ever. Apart from the potted plant, computer monitor, and lesson plan notebook, there was nothing else. In the past, Chu Yinan would have thought that Ms. Yizhi's room was also very tidy. However, after seeing the prosecutor's room, he no longer had such thoughts.

The new workstation isn't much different from the previous one downstairs, except there are fewer useless books that have been squeezed out, and a few more pairs of shoes under the seat.

He sniffed and said, "It smells like coffee. Is Iori-sensei drinking coffee?"

Risa Iori was puzzled, but then she realized what might be going on. She looked at the hook on the outside of the desk and sure enough, there was a cup of Starbucks coffee hanging there.

The female teacher frowned slightly, and could only express her dissatisfaction with the appearance of this drink by clicking her tongue.

"Xiao Chunan, would you like some? I remember you really like coffee."

"I'm a mature person now, I'm not obsessed with coffee anymore, and this cup of coffee even has sugar in it." Chu Yinan sighed maturely, "Coffee with sugar, even a dog wouldn't drink it."

Iori Risa's slight dissatisfaction vanished; the little guy's mature demeanor was quite amusing.

"Oh, you're just saying you won't drink it anymore? Does the mature little Chu Nan still drink lemon juice?"

“This is a good idea. Life is always a little bittersweet, so we have to savor it. So where did the coffee come from? Ms. Iori, you seem to dislike this thing quite a bit?” Chu Yinan had noticed her soft clicking of the tongue earlier, and it was rare to see her show such dissatisfaction.

The female teacher hugged Xiao Chunan like a rag doll, resting her delicate chin on his head, her breasts, concealed by her bra, pressed against his back. However, having been through many trials, he was already immune to it.

This minor contact is insignificant.

"Yes, do you remember when you were in my office last time, a male teacher came over and brought me milk tea? This cup should be from him too. People like that are really annoying. I've clearly refused them several times, but they still waste money like that."

There's an old saying: "A good woman fears a persistent suitor." But this situation needs to be considered within the conservative context of ancient times. Women were expected to maintain their composure, and if a woman was too proactive, she would be subject to gossip, especially young ladies from well-to-do families. In such cases, a fig leaf had to be laid down, claiming that the man was persistent and the woman was moved by his persistence and gave in. In reality, this couple had already developed feelings for each other.

In modern times, this old saying, originally meant to protect a woman's reputation, has become a fig leaf to cover up the "open" nature of some women. Can anyone truly be moved by the advances of a stranger or someone they dislike?

When that guy brought milk tea last time, Chu Yinan didn't look at him because he was forced to hide under Teacher Yizhi's desk. But logically speaking, Teacher Yizhi had clearly refused, so why didn't that guy give up? Was he trying to impress himself and torment others at the same time?

"Could it be because he refused in private that the male teacher felt he still had a chance? Should he try refusing in front of a lot of people? But that seems a bit disrespectful." Chu Yinan couldn't offer any advice.

“Actually, when I refused last time, there were already several teachers in the office who had already said yes. Maybe I’ll have to find a time in a meeting to talk to him next time. But his relatives are quite annoying. Have I told you? He has a relative who is a school leader and also works in the education department.” Iori Risa sighed, rubbing his face with both hands, as if using him as a venting toy.

Chu Yinan was shocked: "It was mentioned before that this requires the leader's help to matchmake? Can't we just report the other party for job harassment?"

If only I could really report it. Despite her complaints, Iori Risa didn't reveal who the school leaders were to avoid any unpleasantness. Iori Risa shrugged helplessly: "Not really, because strictly speaking, there's no outrageous harassment."

This kind of thing is that whatever the superiors do, the subordinates will do. Official documents can't abuse the leader's status and position, but as long as the leader has the power to speak, many things don't need to be done openly.

For example, if you're asked to have dinner with someone, or if you're dragged out to eat under the guise of a colleague get-together, and you don't go, they'll nitpick at your work.

Don't think that as long as you're serious, no one can find fault with you. That's not true. It only depends on whether your boss wants to find fault with you. If you get tired and sit down during a lecture, they can say you're not working hard enough, resulting in a few students' poor grades. But if you lecture non-stop on the knowledge points, they can criticize you for not respecting the learning process, for rote memorization, and for not giving students time to pause and think.

Upon hearing what Teacher Yizhi said, Chu Yinan suddenly realized something: this was probably why she had been transferred to an office with only one person and was "neglected".

The offices on this floor are actually just several classrooms connected by a door, and each classroom is for a teacher of a different subject.

It's a bit unreasonable that Iori Risa was transferred to an empty office with only one person. On the surface, it could be said that the department's office was full, and it just so happened that she was the only one available. But who can really say whether it was to create an opportunity for that male teacher?

Iori Risa was engrossed in playing with his face when she suddenly caught a series of rapid footsteps in the hallway. She quickly said:

"Quick, quick, hide!"

"Huh?" Chu Yinan was completely bewildered, not understanding what had happened, and was told to hide without any preparation.

Seeing Chu Yinan standing there motionless, the female teacher stretched out her pair of sexy, long, stockinged legs under the table, forming a small slope. Her skirt was made of a smooth material, and her stockings were even smoother. Without Iori Risa holding his waist, Chu Yinan slid directly down her legs to the desk.

Perhaps fearing he might bump into something, Iori Risa placed her black-stockinged feet behind Chu Yinan, like a pair of hands offering an embrace, drawing him closer.

"What's wrong?" Chu Yinan asked softly. Even if he didn't know the reason, having seen many storms, he knew something was up.

Could it be that male teacher who delivers milk tea and coffee again? But the sound of high heels negated his guess, and judging from the footsteps, it should belong to a woman with a certain presence.

Because female teachers and office workers usually lower their voices when walking in high heels, but this woman walked with confidence and did not need to suppress her steps at all, which shows that she is someone whose status does not require her to care about such details of etiquette.

Some etiquette is designed for subordinates rather than for demonstrating character.

dong dong dong.

There was a knock on the office door, and then the back door was pushed open. The confident sound of heels entered the room, and the person came to the vicinity of Iori Risa's desk, pulled over an office chair, and sat down next to her.

Chapter 64 "Tug-of-War"

"Risa, how's work lately?"

As soon as the newcomer spoke, Chu Yinan knew who it was: Akemi Fukami, the school's head of administration and discipline.

This position is quite absurd. It's similar to an internal supervisory body within a company, specifically responsible for the work conduct of teachers and administrative staff. However, this position is somewhat of a sinecure, and students generally call her "Director."

The reason I remember her is thanks to the boys in the class who love to comment on beauty. Yes, this head of discipline is also one of the most beautiful teachers among the students. She can be said to be the last faculty member with a high level of recognition, besides the school doctor Bachmann and Risa Iori.

What's special is that Director Sham Shui Po is a mature woman. It's said that she was married a long time ago, and her husband was a former member of parliament or something similar, someone of high status. However, it was an older man and a younger woman marriage. She herself is only about 34 to 36 years old, and because she takes good care of herself, she actually looks even younger.

Putting aside the compliments about her appearance, the students didn't have a very good impression of this discipline director. If anyone happened to be in a bad mood, even the smallest mistake could get them criticized by her. Freshmen were particularly vulnerable, as the older students were more sensible and behaved themselves well in her presence, not daring to raise their voices.

Fortunately, she doesn't appear on campus very often because her main job is in the education department, and her position at the school is just an external assignment.

Iori Risa was about to get up to get some water, but then she remembered that there was a little person hiding under the table. Luckily, she usually kept a thermos full of water, so she poured herself a glass of water without leaving her seat.

"Director Shen Shui, have some water. My job is alright. The students are all in the review stage now. My main task is to supervise their review and do practice questions for them. I hope they can get good results."

Although it was a bit of a formality, that was exactly how Risa Iori actually worked, Akemi Fukami nodded:

"Well, as for relationships, your ex-boyfriend who was kicked off the island shouldn't have contacted you, right? You should stay away from dangerous individuals who are hostile to the artificial island."

When the headmaster started asking about her relationship, Iori Risa knew what was going to happen next; the conversation would most likely turn to her relative, the male teacher who was so self-pitying.

Interfering in or meddling in relationships is often considered nosy and impolite, but it's perfectly acceptable for Akemi Fukami to ask such a question, since Kim Geun-joon is a "glorious individual" who was expelled from the island and blacklisted.

Iori Risa, who had already been investigated, has been proven to have no connection with Kim Geun-joon, but people still keep asking about it, using the guise of concern to inquire about their relationship.

"Yes, I've blocked all his contact information. I reported this to the police station and the prosecutor's office beforehand. Whenever my number receives unknown calls from outside the island, it's immediately switched to the official channels. Don't worry," Iori Risa replied flawlessly, leaving no opening for the other party to exploit.

Chu Yinan crouched under the table to eavesdrop. Just listening to it made him feel exhausted for Teacher Yizhi. This conversation was just too drawn out.

But hearing that the director always manages to find some strange angles to approach the topic of relationships, Chu Yinan felt that she ultimately wanted to be a matchmaker. She might be planning to get Teacher Yizhi to go to a colleague's gathering and then bring up the idea that teachers should respond to AI's work and actively engage in dating and matchmaking.

Using morality to exert pressure.

Chu Yinan secretly took out his phone and sent a message to the school doctor at Bachmann, seeking help.

The tug-of-war in the office continued, but the tone shifted to an elder advising a younger person, saying that they were worried Kim Geun-joon might come back to cause trouble again, and that Iori Risa might be at a loss. It would be good to have someone to look after her at this time.

Risa Iori stated that she has complete faith in the authorities' capabilities and will contact the police station directly if any issues arise, while also reporting to the Disciplinary Office.

However, such a tug-of-war cannot last. A leader can ask you the same question repeatedly, but a subordinate cannot repeatedly give the same answer. Sooner or later, Risa Iori will run out of things to say and find it difficult to clearly refuse Akemi Fukami's "well-intentioned request".

Just as Iori Risa was about to give up and the mature hostess was about to extend an invitation, a knock on the door interrupted their conversation.

School doctor Bachmann walked in and greeted the two people in the office. Akemi Fukami nodded in acknowledgment while seated, without getting up.

"If it were Heinrich here, and Director Shenshui acted so arrogantly, she'd probably make things difficult for him," Chu Yinan muttered to himself.

Chu Yinan's current posture is that half of his face is pressed against the ground, peeking out from the small gap between the table and the ground.

This angle is rather underhanded; being lower than others allows you to catch glimpses of the teachers' skirts.

This deep-water director's attire is really not like that of a teaching staff member. The stockings are black and purple, and the lace collar is not closed, revealing a deep cleavage. Perhaps it should be described as flirtatious?

Unlike the inherent elegance and beauty of Iori-sensei and Bachmann-sensei, Chief Physician Fukami is far too sexy.

"School Doctor Bachmann, what brings you here? What brings you here?"

“It’s a little special matter that will interrupt your conversation with Risa, but it will only take a few minutes.” After explaining her purpose, Bachmann ignored Akemi Fukami and looked at Risa Iori, saying, “I have a dinner appointment, but the time hasn’t been set yet. It might be tonight or tomorrow night.”

Upon hearing the word "dinner party," Director Shenshui visibly frowned, and Bachmann interrupted her plan.

"What kind of dinner party?" Director Shen Shui asked, switching positions with her voluptuous legs in stockings and high heels.

If it's an unimportant dinner party, she can still manage to snatch it away.

“Yes, what kind of dinner party is this? How come I didn’t know?” Iori Risa asked.

“When you came to my house last time, didn’t you meet someone from the Lefie family? She was very impressed with you and told me she invited you to dinner.” Bachman said half-jokingly, somewhat lying, but as long as Akemi Fukami couldn’t confirm it, it was fine.

After all, she didn't have the power to interfere with the lives of the nobles on Glory Island.

Akemi Fukami is very pragmatic. After hearing Bachmann's words, she didn't waste any more time. She checked her phone, said she had something to take care of, and got up to leave.

The school nurse and the female teacher waited until the sound of Director Shen Shui's footsteps completely disappeared before exchanging glances and smiling.

"Why did you come to my rescue? Ugh, I'm so tired from talking to her!"
