Chapter 79 Depressed Yang Ting

"She pinched your face."

Ning Xi's eyes were staring blankly into the distance. Looking into Ye Fan's serious eyes, a blush crept onto her cheeks.

Fortunately, the two of them were talking very softly, and Yang Ting, who was driving, didn't hear them. Otherwise, she would definitely be depressed to death.

"Don't, don't mess around."

The girl didn't even notice that there was a hint of coquettishness in her tone.

Glancing at Yang Ting, who was driving, Ye Fan moved his left hand and held Ning Xi's right hand while she was completely unprepared. He leaned slightly closer to the girl's delicate ear and whispered, "I'm not messing around, I'm serious."

Ye Fan's masculine aura hit Ning Xi's face, causing her face to turn from crimson to scarlet as she struggled to free her small hand.

Afraid of hurting Ning Xi, Ye Fan immediately let go of her and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"

"..."

Ning Xi turned her head away in shame and anger, looking at the scenery outside the car window, her heart in a mess.

Asking the obvious!

He actually took the initiative to hold her hand in front of the teacher…

Because of this incident, Ning Xi ignored Ye Fan all the way there. After arriving at the restaurant, she still had a cold face.

Walking into the private room.

Ye Fan took out the tissue he carried with him, wiped the stool, pulled Ning Xi over, and pressed her onto the stool.

"You..."

"Sit down, be good."

The deep voice carried a different kind of charm, making Ning Xi hold back the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

Yang Ting glanced at Ye Fan and said, "Wipe it for me too."

"No."

As he said that, Ye Fan sat down to Ning Xi's right and said, "Teacher, the stool is not dirty, just sit down."

"..."

Yang Ting wanted to vomit blood in depression.

The stool wasn't dirty?

Then why did he wipe it for Ning Xi?

Special treatment!!!

Their conversation caused Ning Xi to blush slightly, and she lowered her head guiltily.

After ordering the food, the atmosphere became somewhat silent.

Ye Fan's left hand tapped lightly on the table as he took the initiative to speak, "Xiao Xi, did you find today's competition questions difficult?"

"Quite difficult."

After hesitating for a moment, Ning Xi raised her head and said softly, "However, I've encountered many of these types of questions before, so my final score should be okay, not too bad."

"That's good."

Ye Fan nodded slightly, turned the Lazy Susan on the dining table, picked up the kettle, poured Ning Xi a glass of water, and said, "There shouldn't be any lemon water here, drink some boiled water."

"Okay, thank you."

Ning Xi took the glass and nodded.

Ye Fan frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy in his heart. He didn't like how distant Ning Xi was being with him. But when he thought about his recent progress with Ning Xi, the unhappiness quickly dissipated.

Soon!

It wouldn't be long before Ning Xi got used to his presence.

Yang Ting tapped the Lazy Susan, her intention very obvious.

She wanted water too.

Ye Fan placed the kettle on the Lazy Susan and spun it, his intention equally obvious.

If you want to drink, pour it yourself!

"..."

Yang Ting looked at the kettle in front of her, then at Ye Fan's harmless face, and rolled her eyes angrily.

She sulked to herself and picked up her phone to browse the news.

Soon, the earthenware chicken was served by the waiter, and the steaming aroma filled the private room.

"Wow, it smells so good!"

Ning Xi's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but swallow, looking just like a greedy kitten.

Seeing this, Yang Ting smiled and said, "Ning Xi, it's just ordinary earthenware chicken, is it that fragrant?"

"Teacher, I… This is my first time eating this." Ning Xi responded weakly.

"Ah?"

Yang Ting was a little surprised.

Earthenware chicken was very common in restaurants in the Imperial Capital. Except for those high-end restaurants, it was almost always available in ordinary restaurants.

Although the clothes on Ning Xi's body did not show any brands, the fabric was very high-grade. Judging from this, her family background should be pretty good. How come she had never eaten earthenware chicken before?

"Ning Xi, is this your first time eating earthenware chicken, or your first time eating chicken?"

"Both." Ning Xi blinked her eyes.

Yang Ting was astonished and couldn't help but feel curious.

But Ye Fan acted unusually calm. He had expected this. When he took Ning Xi to restaurants in his previous life, this girl also acted like this, as if she had never seen anything before.

It was not until last week when he went to Ning Xi's house that he solved the doubt in his heart.

That kind of family should be very particular about their diet, so it's normal not to eat chicken.

Nowadays, unscrupulous businesses would feed their chickens with hormones. This kind of meat would more or less cause some harm to the body.

Although Yang Ting was curious, she did not continue to ask. She picked up her chopsticks, rummaged through the pot, found a chicken drumstick, and put it in Ning Xi's bowl. "Come, try it, it tastes very good."

"Thank you, Teacher."

The corners of Ning Xi's eyes curved, and coupled with her fair little face, she looked like a porcelain doll.

Yang Ting's eyes were gentle, and she said with a smile, "Xiao Xi, can I call you that?"

"Sure."

Ning Xi was stunned for a moment, then showed a sweet smile.

Yang Ting glanced at Ye Fan, raised her hand, and touched Ning Xi's hair. "Xiao Xi, you're really beautiful, just like someone who came out of a painting."

She had always had a good impression of Ning Xi. She was hardworking, quiet, and sweet-looking. No one would dislike such a girl.

However, Yang Ting had to maintain the majesty of a homeroom teacher, and she had never had the opportunity to get along with Ning Xi. So, they only had an ordinary teacher-student relationship.

Coming out with Ning Xi this time, she couldn't wait to have a good chat with Ning Xi, and she even had the thought of recognizing Ning Xi as her younger sister.

"Teacher, you are also very beautiful."

Ning Xi responded politely, her elegant temperament very charming.

Ye Fan's eyelids twitched slightly.

He could tell that Yang Ting was doing this on purpose, and his heart was speechless to the extreme.

This woman…

How childish!!!

Noticing Ye Fan's reaction, Yang Ting's eyes showed a triumphant smile. She thought, "Kid, aren't you very arrogant? I just touched her, so what? Not only did I touch her, I even pinched her!"

With that thought, she raised her hand and pinched Ning Xi's little face, smiling and saying, "So soft, Xiao Xi, what skincare products do you usually use?"

"Teacher, I...I, I don't use skincare products."

Yang Ting's actions made Ning Xi a little uncomfortable, but she couldn't dodge them for fear of being rude.

"Cough!"

Ye Fan narrowed his eyes and said lightly, "Teacher Yang, it's time to eat."

There was a hint of warning in his flat tone.

He was upset, very upset, but there was nothing he could do about Yang Ting.

"Right, right, let's eat, let's eat."

Yang Ting withdrew her hand and smiled at Ning Xi. "Xiao Xi, try the chicken leg first. It won't taste good when it's cold."

"Okay."

Ning Xi nodded slightly, but just as she picked up her chopsticks, the chicken leg in her bowl disappeared.

Ye Fan ate and commented, "Not bad, slightly spicy, acceptable."

Yang Ting raised her eyebrows and stared at Ye Fan coldly. "There's such a big pot, why did you snatch the meat from Xiao Xi's bowl?"

Ye Fan smacked his lips, a faint smile on his face. "Teacher, you may not know this yet, but what you gave Ning Xi was the left chicken leg, and Ning Xi likes to eat the right chicken leg."

He picked up his chopsticks, rummaged through the pot, found a chicken drumstick, and put it in Ning Xi's bowl. He said gently, "Here, eat it while it's hot."

"Thank you."

Ning Xi didn't care too much. Her attention was all on the chicken. She took a bite, her face full of satisfaction.

"Delicious?"

"Delicious."

The girl's clear eyes curved into crescents, sparkling like stars.

Yang Ting: "..."

Ning Xi enjoyed this meal very much.

Ye Fan hardly ate anything. He was busy picking up food for her, which made Yang Ting extremely depressed.

As for eating?

Eat what? She was already full!!!

...

At the school gate.

Ning Xi smiled faintly at Yang Ting. "Thank you for the treat, Teacher. After the college entrance exam, I'll treat you to a meal too. You can't refuse."

"No problem."

Looking at the girl in front of her, Yang Ting's depression instantly vanished, and she showed a heartfelt smile.

Ye Fan stood beside Ning Xi and interjected, "Remember to call me when you treat Teacher Yang to dinner."

"Okay."

Ning Xi nodded.

Yang Ting: "..."

Call Ye Fan?

The smile on her face instantly froze, and she couldn't help but recall the scene of the meal just now.

Emmm...

After school in the afternoon.

Ye Fan invited Ning Xi to his house, but she refused.

He didn't force her. After returning home, he continued with his usual routine of cooking, eating, showering, reading, and sleeping.

The next day, when he arrived at school, before he even entered the classroom, Ye Fan was stopped by Yang Ting, who was standing at the top of the stairs. Beside her stood a familiar figure—Ning Xi.

"How long have you been waiting?"

Yang Ting looked at her watch and said, "How dare you ask? I've been waiting here since seven o'clock, and it's already seven fifty-eight now. Can't you come to school earlier?"

The corner of Ye Fan's mouth twitched. "Teacher, I'm asking Xiao Xi."
