Lin Hai nodded, "No problem, but I do feel more like a PE teacher than a music teacher."
"Just go with the flow. Anyway, I think you're quite artsy."
"Why? Even though that does make me gifted in both looks and talents, I'm still a bit embarrassed by the compliment, hehe." Lin Hai chuckled smugly. His sister-in-law really had a sweet mouth.
"All gays are artsy."
"…Darn it!" Lin Hai pursed his lips dryly, feeling it was better not to speak.
"Eh? Brother Lin."
Once again, he bumped into Xiao Jiji, who seemed to always time it right, accidentally 'encountering' Ruoshuang.
But each time, Ruoshuang would just give him a sanitary look.
"Xiao Jiji?" Lin Hai smiled and said, now that Xiao Selang was one of his own, and Xiao Jiba was already ranked as an elder of the Reincarnation Gang, people from the Xiao Family in Huadu were considered his people.
"Brother Lin, hehe, I've changed my name, it's not Xiao Jiji anymore," Xiao Jiji said awkwardly while scratching the back of his head.
"Oh? You changed your name? Xiao Jiji sounds pretty nice though, with deep meanings," Lin Hai joked.
"The name Xiao Jiji, every time someone hears it, they think I'm short, so I changed it."
"To what?"
"Xiao-Jing-Han!" Xiao Jiji pronounced his name syllable by syllable, as if intoxicated with himself, feeling that the name was overwhelmingly domineering and cool.
"Crap! Xiao-Jing-Han? Meaning 'petite but spirited'?" Lin Hai was taken aback.
Ruoshuang, with disdain, quipped, "Little Jiji, sing 'Queen' for me, or 'How Can I Say I Don't Love You'. If you can't sing it, let your brother-in-law break your legs."
"Ah?" Xiao Jiji looked troubled, gazing worriedly at Ruoshuang, "Miss, I can't sing."
"Then why the hell did you change your name? I thought you were heading into show business, and with Xiao Jinghan, people might think you are brothers with the pop star Xiao Jingteng."
Ruoshuang struck again.
"Hehe, Sister Ruoshuang, actually, that guy is kind of a distant relative of our Xiao Family on the bloodline, but not as close as me, I am of the direct lineage."
"Brother-in-law, break his legs, including the third one," Ruoshuang said coldly.
"Ah? Sister Ruoshuang, spare me, Brother Lin, please show mercy," Xiao Jiji hastily pleaded with a bitter expression.
"Hmph, don't you know I once had a period of being a star chaser?"
"Uh, then I'll change it. How about I call myself Xiao Hanliang from now on?"
"Brother-in-law, break his hands too, make him give up the lifelong habit of...you know!"
Lin Hai was speechless. He hadn't realized before that Xiao Jiji actually had such an absurd side.
"Let's go, it's time for school," Lin Hai said, appropriately breaking the tension.
Xiao Jiji, or should we say "Xiao Jinghan," looked at Lin Hai with eyes full of gratitude.
As they prepared to enter the school, sure enough, the school security noticed Lin Hai and came over to check.
"Campus officer, you look super handsome today. This is our school's new music teacher," Ruoshuang quickly transformed into a cute girl, with a sweet and charming tone, telling a little white lie.
Xiao Jiji shivered, looking at his goddess with even more infatuation. Sadly, he could only look, and that too covertly, daring not to pursue any further.
The campus officer was almost unable to resist, and his attitude became extremely amicable, nodding, "Oh, the new music teacher, hello, hello."
"Ruoshuang, the famous school beauty is also a talented girl, especially gifted in mystery, haha," the campus officer added, with a hint of flattery. After all, the guy was only in his early twenties, not much older than Ruoshuang, and also had aspirations of courtship.
Just at this moment, an international student, seemingly one of Sam's former lackeys, was about to spill the beans about Lin Hai.
Xiao Jiji instantly shot him a frosty glare, and the foreign student was scared into silence.
"Thank you, handsome Mr. Campus Police." Ruoshuang put on an act of cuteness again.
As they entered, Lin Hai could clearly feel the campus police officer was nearly melted by her charm.
"Brother Lin, did you notice? When beauties act cute, it's seriously too tempting. Adding a repeating word when being cutesy, like: 'eat food-food', 'sleep sleepy', 'drink water-water', 'banana-nana', sounds so nice."
Xiao Jiji, mesmerised, looked at Ruoshuang's retreating figure and said to Lin Hai.
Lin Hai just smiled.
Suddenly, Ruoshuang turned her head, scowled at Xiao Jiji with irritation and retorted, "There are also times when it sounds terrible."
"Like when?" Xiao Jiji curiously asked, cluelessly.
"Just cut it out!"
"..."
Both Lin Hai and Xiao Jiji instantly sported a deadpan expression, feeling rather embarrassed.
"Huh? What are these students busy with?" Lin Hai wondered. Class was about to start, yet he saw a group of students heading to the school gate with various banners.
"Oh, probably because some bigwig leaders are coming down for inspection. It was mentioned in yesterday's class meeting, seems like leaders from the Department of Education."
"Tsk tsk, but they shouldn't take up the students' class time." Lin Hai commented.
Xiao Jiji shook his head: "That's how it is now, form over substance. Leaders come down to 'inspect and guide', but what guidance can they provide? It's just about eating and drinking, taking advantage of female students, and incidentally squeezing some money out of the school."
"Can't be, right? There are good leaders too." Lin Hai said.
Xiao Jiji sighed: "Alas, the leaders from the Department of Education have come down several times, and it's been utterly pointless."
"Humph, those leaders with their bloated navels, looking like righteous gentlemen on the surface, are actually beasts in fine robes; every time they come for inspection, they deliberately go to the music classroom. There have been many times they've leered at people's chests lustfully."
Ruoshuang also complained.
"Seriously?" Lin Hai was shocked.
"Once our head teacher even hinted indirectly, suggesting that I accompany the leaders for drinks. Hmph, he's blind, not realizing who I am." Ruoshuang grew even more indignant.
"Holy crap, they dared to ask you to accompany them for drinks? Where's your head teacher's office? Has he arrived? Brother-in-law is going to take care of him." Lin Hai got somewhat angry upon hearing this.
"Brother Lin, please don't. The leader is inspecting today. We should deal with it behind closed doors another time, give'em a surprise blow." Xiao Jiji quickly intervened.
"Alright! It's settled then. Once I'm done here, we'll figure out a way to handle your head teacher."
"You guys are so crude, always talking about doing this and doing that."
"Come on, brother-in-law, stop wasting time with Xiao Jiji. Hurry and follow me to the music classroom." Ruoshuang impatiently pulled Lin Hai's arm.
Lin Hai offered Xiao Jiji an apologetic smile: "Don't be mad, okay? That's just how Ruoshuang is."
"It's fine, Brother Lin, I actually like it when Miss Ruoshuang treats me this way." Xiao Jiji grinned foolishly.
Lin Hai gave him another warm smile; this kid really seemed quite alright after shedding his playboy airs.
As they approached the door of the music classroom, Lin Hai encountered Wang Jingjing.
"Oh? Mr. Lin, what brings you here again?"
"Teacher, my brother-in-law actually likes music too. Hearing that you're lecturing today, he wanted to contribute his last ounce of heat and make some progress." Ruoshuang jumped in to cover for Lin Hai.
