Chapter 15: Save the psychopathic killer (15)
Xu Ming Xin felt that the people the around him were all looking at him as though they were looking at a mentally retarded idiot. He felt very wronged. He didn’t deliberately not take off his backpack. It was just that he was anxiously thinking about the situation, so he forgot about it. This was totally not a big deal right? Since it’s not a big deal, these people shouldn’t make a fuss over nothing.
“What are you all looking at me for? I’m hungry. Have you guys cooked yet?”
Once Xu Ming Xin said this, the few people present also felt their stomachs growl. After all, they had climbed the mountain for a whole day and used up a lot of strength. Also, apart from strength, the four students also used up a considerable amount of vitality. Their stomachs naturally felt hungry more quickly. To make matters worse, the students outside were already noisily laughing as they boasted about how delicious the food they made was. The fragrant smells were already drifting into the tent. Even a saint wouldn’t be able to resist this naked seduction!
However, before allowing the children to leave the tent, Ren Zhu still summed up this matter and warned the four young teenagers: “Next time no matter what you do, you must think properly before speaking. This is what you call ‘carefully thinking before acting’. This way, you can avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and harm to others. If you don’t understand, then first don’t denounce others and just voice your opinion. The truth will naturally come out. You won’t be able to resolve any problems by arguing.”
Xu Ming Xin heard this and felt a little ashamed. He had previously already apologised to Zhou Lai. Now he couldn’t help but face Zhou Lai again and apologise several times. Zhou Lai’s expression was already a lot better than before. He shook his head. “It’s fine. Anyway, you didn’t do it on purpose.” I won’t bother arguing with a mentally retarded person.
Ren Zhu took another glance at Song Feng: “Of course, if you make a mistake, you must still promptly admit it. This way, you can at least minimise the damage and problem. Regardless of whether it’s for others or for yourself, this is a good thing.”
This time it was Song Feng’s turn to blush.
After the four boys together experienced being lectured by their class teacher on this matter, they unconsciously established a subtle alliance. Ren Zhu smiled as he made these four form a small group and start cooking, and then call over the two bodyguard uncles to help them set up their tent. At this moment, Lu Ban Ban was happy. He grabbed Zhou Lai’s shoulder and said: “I brought canned tuna and beef jerky. You’re welcome to have some!”
When Lu Ban Ban reached out to grab his shoulder, Zhou Lai stiffened, but quickly adapted to it and then nodded. Watching these four youngsters form a companionship, Teacher Ren’s mood became a lot better. However, he still looked at Lu Ban Ban and Zhou Lai with some concern.

Ren Zhu said a word to himself and then a transparent light screen appeared in front on him, showing the completion rate had reached 50%. Ren Zhu nodded. Sure enough, this incident would have caused those psychopaths some childhood influence and paranoia. He could now almost confirm that the psychopath was either Lu Ban Ban or Zhou Lai, and the probability of it being Zhou Lai was even higher.
If he hadn’t intervened, the situation would have most likely developed into Zhou Lai being wrongly accused. He would then be pushed aside by all the students in the class and again openly bullied by Lu Ban Ban. The task completion had already reached 50%. This proved that the psychopathic killer’s future should have already changed a lot.
“What else will happen?” Teacher Ren pressed the bridge of his nose. He needed to think of a method. It was only good if he could follow them until the end of high school. Otherwise, if he couldn’t watch over them in the future, his current efforts would certainly become an illusion.
While Ren Zhu thought about how he could continue to follow the Grade 6 Class 8 children all the way through middle school and high school, further away, Professor Ning was looking stupidly at the lump of noodles inside his pot.
Yes, it was a lump. Twenty minutes ago, he was still proud as he decided that he must show Teacher Ren he wasn’t a basic living idiot. After all, cooking instant noodles was a simple matter. He hadn't eaten pork before, but it's not like he hadn't seen pigs run ah? However now, Professor Ning felt that ‘one should possess knowledge in what they specialise in’, this sentence was very reasonable. He wasn’t some professional top class chef. Why should he be able to cook? Stuff like cooking, he should wait until his next life.
Therefore, when Teacher Ren came out with his stomach rumbling in hunger ready to eat his dinner, he saw Professor Ning squatting on the ground holding an umbrella. From his back view, he could tell that he was very miserable.
Ren Zhu: “……” Suddenly have an ominous premonition.
“Where’s the food?” After walking over, Ren Zhu directly asked. He then glimpsed at that horrifying pot of noodles and simply shut his mouth.
Ning Xun had never felt so shameful and incompetent. He quickly stood up and held the umbrella above Ren Zhu’s head. His handsome face was a little unnatural: “Um, I’m not an expert. So, I’ll help you steal a bit from your students. Rest assured. Don’t say stealing a little food from one person, even taking all their food, I can do it.”
After saying this, Ning Xun anxiously wanted to walk out, but Ren Zhu pulled him back by his wrist: “Seeing that you worked hard today to accompany us to climb the mountain, just eat it. Anyway, it’s only that the noodles turned into a lump. It’s fine as long as it’s edible. I also still have ham sausage.”
Ning Xun completely hadn’t expected Ren Zhu would actually make such a mild compromise. After all, for more than half a month, this person always looked at him with disdain. He of course knew that this person was on guard against him. However, he didn’t expect that Ren Zhu’s vigilance would actually be that strong, after more than half a month he still couldn’t trust him. But now, how come he was suddenly good to him?
Ren Zhu looked at the doubt exposed on psychologist Ning’s face and didn’t bother explaining. “Okay. Hurry up and eat. You have been tired for a whole day, you should rest early.” Until now, he still couldn’t determine what this person’s objective was. He was obviously a specialist, but he just had to run to a private school to be a teacher. However, seeing how earlier he had rushed up without thinking to protect the students, this person’s heart at least wasn’t ugly.
Ning Xun stood on the spot for a moment and eventually shrugged. He let Ren Zhu hold the umbrella and then quickly extinguished the gas stove. After packing it, he held the small pot and walked towards the tent. “Go in and eat. It’s still raining outside.”
At this time, the two bodyguards had already quickly helped Lu Ban Ban and the others set up their tent. Even those four students had made instant noodles, taking out beef jerky and all kinds of compressed biscuit cans before entering their tent. The cold autumn mountain wind blew through this night scene, but it couldn’t blow away the comfortable and warm atmosphere inside everyone’s tents.
Ren Zhu glanced around and didn’t find anything unusual. He again looked up at the sky that had no stars and was only covered in dark clouds, and then entered the tent.
When he entered, Ning Xun had already taken out the noodles inside the pot. Ren Zhu looked at his bowl that clearly had a little more noodles and was layered with ham sausage and salmon slices. Slightly stunned, he looked at the bowl in Ning Xun’s hand that looked nothing but pitiful.
“Quickly come over and eat. You were in the rain for a whole day, you should eat something to warm up your stomach. After a while, I will go outside with the two bodyguards to boil a few pots of red sugar ginger tea. Let the children drink it before sleeping. Tomorrow, there definitely wouldn’t be a single person who caught a cold.”
When Ren Zhu heard this, he was even more stunned. After a long while, he finally picked up his bowl. “You brought a lot of ginger?” To be honest, he was just worrying about whether the children would catch a cold tomorrow. This person actually said that he would boil ginger tea.
Professor Ning finally had an opportunity to show off: “No, I brought two Chinese medicine bags precisely to prevent catching a cold from the autumn wind. What do you think? Am I powerful?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis was Teacher Ren’s third time hearing Professor Ning boast. For the first two times, he felt that this person was mentally retarded. Now, Teacher Ren laughed: “En. Powerful.”
Ning Xun slightly looked up in surprise and immediately saw those smiling eyes. In this instant, Ning Xun felt his heart beat faster. He suddenly wanted to kiss those gentle eyes, but in the end, he still resisted.
Ning Xun lowered his head and pulled at the noodles, the corners of his lips raising. He felt that his foolish love symptom had no end, just like a young boy. He was also clearly aware that Ren Zhu wasn’t as cold and indifferent as he acts. He was actually a very gentle person. En, although that was mostly towards his students.
“I can’t eat this much meat and noodles.” Ning Xun, who was steadily eating, saw a bowl and a pair of chopsticks appear in his line of sight. He then raised his head. Ren Zhu simply used his chopsticks to shift a third of the meat and noodles into Ning Xun’s bowl. Professor Ning, who had not enjoyed this kind of treatment since the age of six: “……” Although this wasn’t very hygienic, he still felt really happy!
Ning Xun finally laughed, and that smile was truly too handsome. When Teacher Ren saw it, he was a little dazzled.
At this moment, the atmosphere inside the tent seemed to become a little sticky.
“Teacher Ren!!”
Lu Ban Ban suddenly rushed in and then sneezed as he said: “Lao Ban, I think I’m about to catch a cold. What should I do?!”
Ren Zhu quickly stood up and said to Ning Xun: “Boil medicine.”
Professor Ning: I feel like I just lost a very good opportunity to say or do something.
Therefore, Lu Xiao Pang, who had not felt contempt from his class teacher for a long time and was once again number one in the class, suddenly felt a ‘gloomy gaze’ coming from Professor Ning.
Lu Xiao Pang: !!!
I feel like my IQ, physical and mental strength are wildly falling! Mama! It seems like I’m going to have a really big illness!!
