Rebirth: Starting from a Trainee Teacher

Chapter 52 How many backup plans do you have?
"Can't you dress nicely if you're not going on a blind date? Do girls dress just to show off to boys?"

Liu Hanyu's face gradually brightened with smile.

"Girls will not pay any attention to you no matter how beautiful your clothes are. Boys know how to appreciate girls better. Why are you carrying books when you go shopping?"

Zhou Jing lifted the schoolbag on Liu Hanyu's back and said.

"I told my mom that I was going to read a book, otherwise I would always have to tutor my brother."

"Then just tutor your brother. You are such an incompetent sister."

Zhou Jing said bluntly.

"My brother is going to study science, so I can only teach him English. I have forgotten a lot of English grammar. I was not good at grammar in high school. I relied on my half-understanding of grammar and half-feeling to answer grammar questions. Otherwise, I would not have only passed the second-tier university entrance exam. Now I can only help my brother read some words. I barely passed the math exam in the college entrance exam."

Liu Hanyu is really helpless about her brother's studies, and she also hopes that her brother can learn well.

"All right!"

Zhou Jing could understand.

Tutoring high school students requires a strong level of competence yourself, otherwise it will be counterproductive and make students more confused the more they listen.

"I want to hire you to tutor my brother in math. How much per hour?"

Liu Hanyu said with a smile.

Zhou Jing shook his head and said no.

"Are you sorry to take my money?"

"It's not about money. It's about workplace rules. It will have a bad influence if your brother's classmates and math teacher know about it."

Zhou Jing definitely cannot give special lessons to students other than his own class at Experimental Middle School. The school does not allow teachers to give extra lessons outside of class, and tutoring students of other math teachers in the school is a taboo. He will not be able to live like a human being in the future.

"Yes, how do you feel about this week of formal classes?"

Liu Hanyu thought about it carefully and understood that teachers and colleagues should not do such things.

"Not bad. What about you?"

Although his personal freedom was severely deprived when he was a class teacher, Zhou Jing doesn't care at all now. Instead, he enjoys it because he doesn't need personal freedom now. What he needs is to make money and concentrate on writing novels after work.

Zhou Jing could just use the excuse that his class teacher was busy at work to turn down some of his classmates' invitations.

"I can do that too. The company is basically the same as what you said. It's quite good to take an administrative class in such a company. The living area of ​​this company has complete facilities. The group's comprehensive office building is located in the living area. In addition to dormitories and a dining center, the living area also has an activity center and a plastic playground. Each branch factory has an administrative office area and a cafeteria."

"Maybe I got some help from you."

"The day before yesterday, a supervisor in the HR department was talking about whether I had a boyfriend or not. I said my boyfriend teaches high school math at the Experimental Middle School. The other three people who went in with me were assigned to positions in the branch factory area according to the personnel arrangements announced today. Only I was left in the Group Department Building, which means that I will work in the living area complex building in the future. There is also a TV in the staff dormitory."

Liu Hanyu walked towards Zhou Jing with half her body turned and said a lot in one breath. She felt good about the work she had just done.

"You are so smart. Be careful that I won't be able to help you in the future, or someone will make things difficult for you."

Zhou Jing, who works in the workplace, knows that it is probably because of his identity, but it is not necessarily the case. It may also be because Liu Hanyu is pretty.

"It shouldn't be that serious. I'm just an ordinary employee. What's the big deal?"

Liu Hanyu was a little confused. What she said was very straightforward. Did Zhou Jing really not understand or was he pretending not to understand?

Doesn’t he have any reaction at all to the word “boyfriend”?

Although she is not ready for a formal relationship now, this should show her feelings. She is willing to date Zhou Jing when the time is right. If Zhou Jing is serious about pursuing her now, it is not impossible. They can start with a proper relationship.

Of course Zhou Jing noticed it, but he didn’t want to care about it right now, and automatically filtered out the word “boyfriend” from his mind.

Zhou Jing is currently completely unable to calm down and think about feelings.

On the one hand, I don’t have the time or the energy to fall in love for the time being, and on the other hand, I’m suffering from indecisiveness.

In his previous life, he had read many rebirth stories, in which the reborn people did not have to make multiple-choice decisions but had to have everything. Zhou Jing fully agreed with this kind of ambition. From ancient times to the present, the pursuits of men are nothing more than power, money, and beauty.

Zhou Jing is not interested in power and does not have the intelligence to get into the officialdom, but he may be able to achieve the other two if he works hard.

Try not to leave any regrets for yourself if you live your life again, but to have it all requires not only courage but also money. It's OK to read books for fun, but it's not so easy to have the happiness of having two wives in reality.

Zhou Jing is not the type of person who wants to possess every beautiful girl he sees, but it is also difficult for him to be loyal to one person. At least, he has not met someone who can make him devoted to one person yet.

Sometimes having more choices isn't necessarily a good thing.

So Zhou Jing can only put his feelings aside for now and focus on making money.

Seeing Zhou Jing's silly look as if he had no understanding of love or girls, Liu Hanyu felt angry and helpless. After all, he had been in a relationship in college, so why was he still so stupid? No wonder they broke up.

Then again, Liu Hanyu couldn't help but wonder if Zhou Jing had had sex with his ex-girlfriend. Although she didn't have that kind of mysophobia, there was still something there. But if a boy said he hadn't had sex, he couldn't prove it. But looking at Zhou Jing's dull look, he probably hadn't had sex with his girlfriend, and Zhou Jing didn't seem like the kind of guy who would force his girlfriend.

"You wouldn't mind if I told you that you were my boyfriend at work, right?"

Liu Hanyu continued to test the waters and simply spoke more bluntly.

Zhou Jing smiled calmly and said, "I'm afraid you might turn your fake play into real one."

"What if I pretend to be real?"

Liu Hanyu asked again. She felt a little nervous when she asked this question, and her heart was beating fast.

"Then do it. You happen to be the first on my list of potential partners."

Zhou Jing remained calm and reached out to grab the girl's hand.

"Get lost." Liu Hanyu slapped the boy's hand away and asked angrily, "Does that mean I'm just a spare tire?"

"Eternal love is all sweet lies. People come and go, and who is not someone else's spare tire? If you have a better choice than me, who is more handsome, richer, and gentler than me, will you still choose me?"

Zhou Jing was not at all flustered, and he did not act cautiously for fear of making Liu Hanyu angry.

If you have a bad temper, it will show up sooner or later.

"It seems that the breakup you had a lot of problems with recently has made you so pessimistic."

Liu Hanyu said this, but actually he had nothing to say.

Although the saying "No one is anyone's backup" sounds harsh, it is true. Some people may be casual in love, but if there are better and more suitable options for marriage, who wouldn't want to choose the better and more suitable one?

In fact, before Liu Hanyu seriously considered Zhou Jing during this period, she had also considered other boys around her, but none of them were as good as Zhou Jing.

Liu Hanyu realized that she had underestimated the maturity of people who had been in love.

It turns out that this guy didn't not understand, but understood everything, but just pretended not to understand sometimes.

At least she is the best in Zhou Jing's heart. Liu Hanyu could only comfort herself in this way, and then said: "Then how many backups do you have?"
