Seeing Gu Jinlan holding a cigarette at the corner of his lips, Ke Ning was stunned.

There was a strong wind on the rooftop, ruffling Gu Jinlan's hair.

After she lit the cigarette, she raised her hand to smooth her hair, took a deep breath, held the cigarette in her hand, and smiled at the two of them.

"Teacher Lin secretly took photos of me in the bar last night. Was it for Teacher Ke to see?"

Lin Jiajia was stunned. She didn't expect Gu Jinlan to be so careless about his image that he actually smoked in front of Ke Ning.

Gu Jinlan added: "I not only smoke, but I also love to drink. I have nothing to fear from others knowing this, but it is really unkind of you to secretly take photos of me."

Hearing this, Ke Ning frowned and looked at Lin Jiajia, "You took a sneak shot of Teacher Gu?"

Lin Jiajia lowered her head and said, "It's... it's a misunderstanding. I... I saw Teacher Gu at the bar last night. At first I thought I recognized the wrong person. It was hard to see clearly in the bar, so I took a picture with my phone and wanted to enlarge it."

Gu Jinlan sneered.

After this explanation, she wanted to applaud Lin Jiajia.

"Night invitation?" Ke Ning's face darkened. "Didn't you tell me before that you never go to places like bars?"

Lin Jiajia: "I was dragged there by a friend last night."

Ke Ning said firmly, "I said before that I don't like you. It has nothing to do with what kind of person you are! Liking someone is a feeling. I like someone even if she smokes, drinks, and party every night."

Hearing this, Lin Jiajia started crying again.

What Ke Ning said to Gu Jinlan in front of her was undoubtedly a slap in the face to her.

She turned around and came to Gu Jinlan, crying aggrievedly, and bowed to Gu Jinlan.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Gu. I shouldn't have taken a photo of you last night. The people of Master Shi have already warned me, and I won't dare to do it again. But this is really a misunderstanding. You have Master Shi protecting you, so how dare I mess with you?"

Lin Jiajia said the last sentence loudly.

It seemed as if he wanted Ke Ning to hear it clearly and remind him that Gu Jinlan was the Tenth Master's person, and it would be useless no matter how much he liked her.

How could Gu Jinlan not see what Lin Jiajia was thinking?

This apology is like no apology at all.

In the end, he still refused to admit that he deliberately took the photos last night.

If you just want to see her clearly with your phone's camera, why take so many pictures?

Some angles are clearly deliberate.

However, what Gu Jinlan did not expect was that Shi Ye said that she should handle her own affairs, but he had already helped her settle them.

With the warning from Master Shi, even if Lin Jiajia had a hundred times the courage, she would not dare to do it again.

Gu Jinlan exhaled a puff of smoke, "It turns out that Teacher Lin can talk. You were just crying in the office this morning. I thought you were mute today."

Lin Jiajia started coughing violently, as if she was choked by Gu Jinlan's cigarette.

Her face turned red from coughing, and she cried as she coughed, "I was too scared this morning and didn't have time to explain... cough cough cough... I'm sorry for making everyone misunderstand you, cough!"

Gu Jinlan looked at Lin Jiajia coldly.

Tsk tsk, so pitiful and wronged.

It made it seem as if Gu Jinlan was extremely evil.

In order to cover up their guilty conscience and bad behavior, some people pretend to be innocent and pitiful in order to confuse others' judgment.

Obviously, Lin Jiajia is well aware of this.

Gu Jinlan suggested: "Teacher Lin, you shouldn't be a kindergarten teacher. You can consider changing your career to become an actor."

Lin Jiajia looked at Gu Jinlan's sharp eyes, her heart panicked, and she ran downstairs crying.

Ke Ning walked up to Gu Jinlan with a look of shame on his face.

"I'm sorry, this matter is caused by me. Teacher Lin and I are just colleagues. I clearly rejected it last month..."

"Teacher Ke, you don't have to explain this to me." Gu Jinlan interrupted and walked towards the rooftop.

Ke Ning followed and asked, "How do you know about me and Teacher Lin?"

Gu Jinlan said: "The way you two look at each other doesn't seem like ordinary friends."

Lin Jiajia is different from the previous Xu Hui.

Lin Jiajia is not as high-profile and gossipy as Xu Hui. She is a low-key person who seems not to compete.

They usually never even spoke to each other.

At first she thought that Lin Jiajia was another crazy fan of Shi Ye.

But Shi Ye denied it seriously.

She really couldn't figure out what Lin Jiajia's purpose was.

It wasn't until Koning came to the office and saw the two of them looking at each other that she suddenly realized.

There was obviously a story behind the look in Lin Jiajia's eyes when she looked at Ke Ning.

During this time, she could also feel Koning's kindness towards her.

Then it all makes sense.

Ke Ning sighed, "Teacher Gu is indeed an expert in psychology. He is very good at seeing people's inner world through their expressions."

Gu Jinlan smiled and turned to look at Ke Ning: "Do you like me?"

Ke Ning was shocked. He didn't expect Gu Jinlan to ask him so directly.

Her eyes were full of sunshine, and her look was frank and determined, without any of the tenderness and shyness of other girls.

Koning's heart beat violently and he nodded nervously: "Yes, I like you."

Gu Jinlan smiled slightly, "Thank you."

Seeing her frank smile, Ke Ning suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Teacher Ke, thank you for thinking highly of me, but I don't like you. Please treat me as an ordinary colleague in the future. If you can't do that, then I hope we can keep our distance in the future."

After saying that, Gu Jinlan put out the cigarette and turned around.

She doesn't like to keep people hanging.

I didn't say it before because I thought that I would be leaving Aolington soon and we wouldn't meet or have any contact again.

But now that Lin Jiajia’s incident has come to light, we must make things clear.

This is good for everyone.

"Teacher Gu!" Ke Ning called Gu Jinlan, looking at her back in disappointment, and asked, "Is there really no possibility at all? You won't give me a chance at all?"

"Sorry." Gu Jinlan waved his hand with his back to Ke Ning and strode away.

-

After kindergarten in the afternoon, Gu Jinlan sent Shi Xingran to the school gate.

The little guy held her hand again and wanted her to go back with him.

Gu Jinlan squatted down in front of him and said gently, "Ranran, the teacher still has a lot of things to do and can't be with you all the time. Ranran is a man and he must learn to be independent."

Shi Xingran seemed to understand but not quite, and blinked blankly.

"Lanlan!"

Suddenly, Gu Jinlan heard a familiar voice and turned around to see Ye Jingwan.

Ye Jingwan was walking towards them, holding a children's toy in her hand.

Gu Jinlan frowned and quickly said to Steward Xue who was waiting beside him, "Steward Xue, please take Ranran back."

"Okay." Butler Xue took Shi Xingran's hand and said, "Young Master, let's go home."

Shi Xingran's eyes were full of reluctance, but he still followed Butler Xue into the car obediently.

"See you tomorrow!" Gu Jinlan waved at him.

Just as the car door was about to close, Ye Jingwan ran forward.

Gu Jinlan turned around and blocked Ye Jingwan, "What are you doing here?"
