After finishing her homework that night, Tao Yin instructed Ming to prepare a small gift for Ye Nan. Then, she went to the cafe with a stack of financial magazines. She had recently accepted a job to help translate business magazines.

She did not expect to run into someone she was not familiar with at the cafe.

Lu Xing was sitting on the sofa in the cafe with a magazine in her hands. Tao Yin glanced at it. The cover looked familiar. It seemed to be the latest issue of Hank's magazine. There was an article she had published in it.

The Bai family's villa was quite a distance away from here.

"What a coincidence."

Tao Yin nodded. "It is quite a coincidence."

Lu Xing closed the magazine in her hands and rested her head on the sofa. She looked at Tao Yin lazily. "What are you doing here?" A pair of warm peach blossom eyes slowly bloomed as she looked at Tao Yin.

Tao Yin was not tempted by her beauty. "I ran away from home."

"Oh."

Lu Xing was not curious at all. She shook the magazine in her lap and continued reading. The page opposite her happened to be Tao Yin's article.

Tao Yin found a seat and sat down. He buried his head in the magazine and did not even notice when Lu Xing left.

During this time, Tian Fang called to express her concern and asked Tao Yin to come back quickly.

"Mom, my surname is Tao, not Bai. I live quite freely outside."

"No matter how good it is, it can't be good with Mom by your side."

Tao Yin was half laughing and half sighing on the phone. "I don't know either. But at least no one tells me to be at a disadvantage or to tolerate everything. This is very free."

Tian Fang fell silent.

For the next two days, Ye Nan came to school with huge dark circles under her eyes. Even makeup could not hide her haggard face.

Bai Manxi even asked about Mr. Ye out of concern. Ye Nan could only half-heartedly say that she did not sleep well.

It wasn't just that she didn't sleep well. For the past two nights, whenever it was midnight, a video link would automatically pop up on her phone. When she clicked on it, she would see a high-definition, uncensored photo of her. There was a line of bold red words on it: I'm a mistress?

There were two buttons at the bottom, one with "Yes" and the other with "No". At first, Ye Nan decisively pressed the "No" button. Then, a shrill and strange laughter suddenly burst out from the speaker, followed by the sound of a woman singing. Her voice was unpleasant. Ye Nan braced himself and listened to it. He realized that the lyrics were: "I'm a mistress, a shameless mistress. I'm a teacher, I don't deserve to be a teacher …" At the end, accompanied by the woman's shrill voice, Ye Nan screamed and threw the phone away. The phone fell to the ground, and the singing voice came out again and again, unable to be turned off.

It didn't stop until the phone ran out of battery.

The next night, the familiar video link popped up again. This time, Ye Nan ignored it, thinking that as long as she didn't click on it, everything would be fine.

But she was wrong. After three minutes, she still hadn't clicked on the link. Her phone began to vibrate violently, and countless pages popped up. They were all news pages about mistresses being beaten and cursed by others. Her hands trembled as she tried to close them, but she couldn't. At this moment, the link that had caused her nightmares popped up again.

She could only choose to click on it. It was the same as last night, "Yes" or "No".

Ye Nan closed her eyes and clicked on the "Yes" button.

It was quiet. Finally, everything disappeared.

But she didn't feel happy at all. She had personally admitted what she had always refused to admit. She was Bai Shengtian's lover.

But things clearly weren't like that. She had known him for more than 20 years, and they fell in love abroad. How could she be considered a mistress?

That night, even without the woman's shrill singing, Ye Nan hugged her stomach and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

It had been like this for several nights in a row. How could Ye Nan be in good spirits?

She quickly told Bai Shengtian about this matter. Shengtian had promised that he would get someone to investigate, but it had been a few days, and there was no news at all. She was getting more and more anxious.

Tao Yin kept looking at her in class.

"Tao Yin, why aren't you paying attention in class? What are you looking at!"

Tao Yin's smiling gaze just happened to touch Ye Nan's bad luck. Ye Nan threw the chalk aside and quickly walked down from the podium.

"Is it because you think you did well in the last exam, so your tail is wagging? Do you think you don't need to pay attention in class anymore?"

"No, Teacher." Tao Yin stood up from her seat innocently. She was only inches away from Ye Nan. "Teacher, I think you don't look well today. I was very worried, so I took a few glances at you."

Ye Nan stared at Tao Yin without blinking. She obviously didn't believe that she would be so kind.

Tao Yin got even closer. Her face was full of worry.

"Teacher, you're already so old. You have to take good care of your health. Otherwise …" Tao Yin lowered her voice, making sure that only she and Ye Nan could hear her.

"Otherwise, you'll lose your lustful looks."

"You!"

Ye Nan's eyes widened. She pointed at Tao Yin and staggered back a step. Her eyes seemed to be able to spit venom. Her voice trembled as she gritted her teeth and said, "So it was you. You did this, didn't you?"

Tao Yin looked at Ye Nan in a daze, just like the other students sitting there. It was as if they had no idea what she was talking about.

"You're still pretending. How can you be so despicable!" Ye Nan raised her hand and slapped Tao Yin fiercely.

Tao Yin didn't expect Ye Nan to be so crazy in the classroom. Fortunately, she was prepared and took a step back. Ye Nan was tall and used 80% of her strength. Even though Tao Yin dodged the slap, his chin was still scratched by Ye Nan's fingernails.

Tao Yin frowned and took a few steps back.

"Teacher, why did you hit me for no reason? Are you feeling unwell and hallucinating?

I saw you vomiting yesterday. Are you sick? "

Ye Nan stopped her action of hitting Tao Yin. The look in her eyes couldn't be described as resentment. She held her stomach and retreated to the side of the podium. She pointed at Tao Yin and couldn't form a sentence.

"You, what else do you know? Tell me, tell me!

How did you know?! "How did Tao Yin know? She even hid this from Bai Shengtian.

Tao Yin received the records of the gynecology department in the hospital that Ye Nan put on her phone. He just wanted to test Ye Nan. He didn't expect that he guessed correctly. Ye Nan was pregnant and it was most likely Bai Shengtian's child.

"Tao Yin!

You're too much. How dare you talk back to the teacher in class. Are you crazy?! "

Bai Manxi saw that everyone else was silent and watching silently. She couldn't help but jump out and criticize Tao Yin: "Do you believe that I'll tell the Dean right now? Let's see how he punishes you."

"Ah, Tao Yin, your chin is bleeding!"

Xia Ning pulled Tao Yin back to her seat. She hurriedly took out a band-aid from her bag and gave it to Tao Yin. She looked at Tao Yin worriedly as she stuck it on.

"Bai Manxi, can you stop targeting Tao Yin? It was clearly Mr Ye who rushed over to hit Tao Yin first. How ridiculous!"

Maybe it was because she couldn't bear to see Bai Manxi bullying the weak, or maybe it was because Xia Ning had developed a protective mentality towards her deskmate after spending some time together. This time, she bravely stood up for Tao Yin.

"Tao Yin, don't listen to her. It's fine even if the Dean comes. I'll explain everything to the teacher. You didn't do anything wrong. Don't be afraid!" Xia Ning held Tao Yin's hand and comforted her sincerely.

Tao Yin wanted to smile at Xia Ning, but as soon as she moved the muscles on her face, she felt a sharp pain in her chin.

"I'm fine. Don't worry," Tao Yin whispered back to Xia Ning. She looked up and saw Bai Manxi comforting Ye Nan by the podium. She found it funny.

If you want to snitch, go ahead. I don't know if the woman you're comforting is still qualified to be your teacher.

Tao Yin's chin hurt so much that it hurt to even open her mouth to speak. She didn't want to waste her breath on Bai Manxi.

She waited for the Dean to come over in boredom. At the same time, she wondered if she should go to the hospital to get a tetanus shot. She didn't know if she would be infected with any bacteria after being scratched by that crazy woman.

"What's going on now?!"

Director Liu was called over by Bai Manxi. He didn't dare to get angry in front of Bai Manxi, so he could only complain that Ye Nan had caused trouble for him again.

When he found out that this matter was related to Tao Yin again, Director Liu really wanted to throw Ye Nan out of school.

She was a good teacher. Why was she fussing with her students all day long? Was he, the respected Dean, here to clean up after her mess?

"Dean, I was doing well in class when Mr Ye suddenly rushed over and got angry at me. I don't know why, but I felt that the teacher didn't look well, so I told her to rest more. In the end, Mr Ye raised his hand and hit me." Tao Yin touched his chin and exposed his wound to Director Liu.

"That's right, Director Liu. I can guarantee that Tao Yin is the victim in this matter. She didn't do anything!" Xia Ning said indignantly.

"Is that what happened?"

Director Liu glanced at the pale Ye Nan. She didn't say anything and only mumbled something. Seeing this, Director Liu looked at the students in the classroom.

"Mr Ye is really strange today. It's like he went crazy."

A few students said in unison. They weren't speaking up for Tao Yin. They just felt that Ye Nan was too scary. She was like a crazy woman. If they let it go this time, what if she slapped them next time?

It was better to get this kind of person out of school as soon as possible so that she wouldn't destroy the country.

Other than Bai Manxi, everyone else said the same thing. Director Liu was surprised.

"Alright, Mr Ye. Come with me for a while."

Ye Nan didn't seem to hear anything. In the end, it was Bai Manxi who helped her out of the classroom slowly.

Tao Yin applied for two days of leave from the teacher. She went to the hospital for disinfection and a tetanus shot. She was about to go to the corridor to rest for a while.

As soon as she stepped out of the door, she saw Lu Xing leaning against the chair.

Tao Yin's chin was wrapped in gauze. Actually, it wasn't that serious. She had asked the nurse to bandage it carefully. The nurse was very young and asked her if she wanted to take the opportunity to apply for a few more days of leave. Tao Yin's eyes curved in agreement. The nurse glared at her mockingly, but in the end, she followed her request and bandaged the wound. It looked like it was very serious.

When Lu Xing saw Tao Yin walk through the door, she immediately supported herself with the handrail and tried to stand up. However, her knees bent halfway and she moved back to sit upright. She raised her chin elegantly at Tao Yin and spoke in a cold tone.
