Zhang Chi makes a quick profit by damaging an electric scooter and then convinces Han Wen Nuan to learn his money-making ways. Meanwhile, a casual bottle-tossing contest in class escalates into a betting challenge, with Chen Siyu cleverly intervening.

A full year of my life, completely wasted!

Cui Yu let out a sigh, "Damn, Chen Siyu is a really sharp one!"

Xiao Shaoxiong noticed the girl who had suddenly appeared. Recalling her frequent conversations with Jiang Ning, he assumed she must be a close friend, though he himself wasn't particularly fond of Jiang Ning.

He readily agreed, "Alright! What are we betting on?"

Wang Longlong, acting as the organizer of this activity, chimed in, "Our Class 8 has a long-standing tradition. If you lose the bet, you have to take over the other party's duty shift seven times."

Xiao Shaoxiong, supremely confident in his skills, declared, "Deal!"

Yet, for some inexplicable reason, everyone cast him glances tinged with a hint of pity.

Guo Kunnan whispered, "He's finished. If I recall correctly, Yang Sheng has never lost a bet, right?"

Dan Kaiquan responded, "Hardly ever."

Yet, no one paid him any heed anymore. Guo Kunnan raised his hand high, proclaiming, "20 yuan, I'll offer 20 yuan!"

The sleazy Liu Chuandao gritted his teeth, countering with "50!"

Duan Shigang, possessing some means, exclaimed, "80!"

Yin Yu, who had remained composed until this moment, felt her face falter slightly. She could hardly fathom that such a trivial gamble would escalate to this extent.

As the men engaged in their heated bidding, an elegant voice interjected, "Five hundred."

All eyes turned to behold Gong Jin, exuding grace and dapper charm, a gentle, warm smile gracing his features.

The price was far too steep; no one dared to contest further, and Gong Jin emerged the victor.

He extended an invitation, "Yin Yu, shall we step outside to talk?"

Yin Yu’s composure returned, allowing her to smile even in this situation. "Certainly, I ought to thank you."

Following this, the pair departed the classroom.

Liu Chuandao seethed with indignation, muttering, "Blast it, had I foreseen this, I would have taken out a loan to bid!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chi initially dismissed him as foolish, but then a sudden spark ignited in his mind – loans, yes, loans… This business venture, I can get involved in it!

...

After Wang Longlong concluded the auction, he called out, "Guo Kunnan, proceed to the office."

Guo Kunnan, puzzled, inquired, "Is there something wrong?"

"Have you forgotten your role as the biology class representative?"

"While that may be true, all my authority has been usurped by the class leader, Dong Qingfeng," Guo Kunnan admitted with a tinge of regret. Dong Qingfeng's pompous attitude, purely due to his academic prowess, was incredibly vexing.

Wang Longlong covered his mouth discreetly, whispering a reminder, "Prepare for a resurgence."

Guo Kunnan gave it little thought but nonetheless made his way to the office.

Ten minutes later.

A hushed circle had formed at the back of the classroom, as if they were privy to sensitive information.

"Honestly, she is truly beautiful, both in appearance and figure, utterly flawless."

"She possesses a captivating charm."

"Especially when that dignified elder solemnly inquired if you were willing?"

"After a strenuous internal deliberation."

"Ultimately, I chose to remain silent."

"After all, I am merely an ordinary student," Guo Kunnan declared.

Liu Chuandao's anger surged, causing his head to ache. "Damn it, you're just spouting nonsense!"

Guo Kunnan retorted, "Why are you cursing?"

Duan Shigang coughed lightly, "Anan, please speak with decorum."

Guo Kunnan appeared to still be replaying the recent events, stating, "Director Yan from the academic affairs office posed the question to the young and attractive newly arrived female teacher, asking if she was certain about choosing our Class 8, and she affirmed her choice."

"Did I say something incorrect? Hey, speak up!" Guo Kunnan pressed.

Liu Chuandao, unfazed by his tone, leaned in conspiratorially, cajoling, "How beautiful is she, really? Tell us, did you catch a subtle fragrance when you were near her?"

He mimed an exaggerated sniffing motion, resembling Zhu Bajie to an absurd degree, radiating an unparalleled sleaziness.

Even Cui Yu found the display unbearable!

The allure of a beautiful teacher held significant sway, particularly among high school boys grappling with adolescent hormones, inevitably fostering certain fantasies.

Guo Kunnan responded, "I can only say, she is remarkably pretty!"

He retained certain details from his observations: Gao Heshuai shared an office with her, and remarkably, Gao Heshuai had even applied hair gel that day!

Furthermore, Gao Heshuai was audibly reciting physics problems beside her, preening like a peacock displaying its plumage!

Guo Kunnan ingeniously amalgamated all the compliments he had ever reserved for Manman, Xu Yan, Yun Tingting… and applied them to describe the biology teacher’s stunning beauty.

Only Zhang Chi, preoccupied with his schemes for loan-based profits, remained utterly indifferent. "What's so remarkable about it?"

Guo Kunnan cast a glance at Zhang Chi, remarking, "Precisely, you wouldn't feel anything, given the circumstances."
