Absolute Great Teacher

Chapter 1300 Salted Fish Forever, Happy Life

Translator: Lordbluefire

When the sun was high up in the sky, sunlight streamed through the windows and cascaded onto the ground, making it resemble a golden carpet.

Sun Mo opened his eyes. After that, he shut them due to an intense headache.

It had been too long since he felt such a feeling.

When he had been studying in university, he had once competed in drinking with his dorm buddies and finished nine bottles of wine in one go. After that, leaving aside how much he vomited, when he woke up the next day, he felt a piercing pain in his mind and his body.

Luckily, his dorm buddies had no interest in his assh*le, or blood would have splattered all over the ground. “How much did I drink last night?”

Sun Mo muttered and kneaded his glabella, but all of a sudden, his movements stiffened because he discovered that it felt very painful down below. (Am I injured? Wait a minute.)

From the corner of his eyes, Sun Mo saw a headful of black hair. A woman was sleeping soundly with her back facing him.

Eh!

Sun Mo sat up abruptly as he surveyed the surroundings.

This place wasn’t the Apricot Tower, and it also wasn’t the residence of Lady Shishi. However, it was definitely the room of a woman. The furnishings were simple and there was even dust in some areas, indicating that the woman didn’t stay here often.

Gradually, last night’s memory began to appear in his mind.

Sun Mo and Gu Xiuxun had drunk a lot and acted like good old friends as they had a heart-to-heart talk.

In the modern era, ever since Sun Mo taught in a high-level high school, although his salary was enough for his daily expenditure, it was an extravagant hope if he wanted to buy a house. Moreover, he didn’t have a girlfriend.

In this regard, Sun Mo did his best to leave it up to fate, but honestly speaking, he felt somewhat anxious in his heart. After all, he was growing older and he couldn’t keep depending on his right hand to starve away his loneliness.

And after a few years of teaching, Sun Mo arrived in Jinling after he fell into the water, and he started a new journey.

Through these ten-plus years, Sun Mo kept achieving success, but his life was like a camel that kept trudging forward bitterly. He basically had never enjoyed any good days before.

And this routine lasted until An Zaiyi’s awakening. After An Zaiyi took back the authority as the headmaster, Sun Mo regained the identity of an ordinary teacher. His job would end the moment he finished giving classes every day.

The days now felt really relaxed.

Actually, after thinking carefully about it, Sun Mo had many good students. Li Ziqi and the others were willing to give up their lives for him. But as for good friends, he didn’t have many.

After all, Sun Mo’s time was used to constantly increase his strength and knowledge so he could become a higher star-rank great teacher. He didn’t have time to make friends.

Gu Xiuxun was considered one.

During the meal yesterday, Sun Mo was still a little restrained at the start. But after drinking more and more, he started to open up and share. Naturally, the most important thing was that there was an indescribable sorrow in his heart that needed to be vented.

Sun Mo kept feeling like he had forgotten a senior great teacher, but no matter how he thought about it, he wasn’t able to remember.

He asked the system, but he received no reply. It was like the system had died.

He also told this matter to An Xinhui and asked if any great teachers had recently resigned or taken leave due to sickness.

An Xinhui said there weren’t any.

This indescribable sorrow was one of the reasons why Sun Mo got so drunk.

After that, as a great teacher, he naturally couldn’t stay overnight in the Apricot Tower. Hence, after the two of them paid their bills, they departed. They didn’t hire horse carriages and simply wandered around the streets along the Qinhuai River, admiring the night view… Then… (Damn, I can’t remember!)

Sun Mo rapped his head in vexation. After that, he turned his head and saw the shoulders of the female beside him trembling slightly. She must have awakened and was currently panicking, not knowing how to face him. “Xiuxun, last night…”

There was no mistake, this woman was the masochist. After all, she was flatter in comparison to the other ladies around Sun Mo. It was impossible for Sun Mo to recognize wrongly. “Nothing happened last night!”

Gu Xiuxun shivered somewhat. “We are good friends, it’s normal to sleep on the same bed. There’s no problem!” (No problem your head! If nothing happened, why did I feel sore below? Ai!)

Sun Mo didn’t have the heartless attitude or experience of being a scummy guy. Hence, he tried to console her. “I will take responsibility.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Xiuxun’s body stiffened. After that, she started sobbing.

Sun Mo immediately panicked.

It wasn’t easy for Sun Mo to get her body to lie straight. After that, Sun Mo saw that the masochist was covering her face, and tears were flowing out of the gaps of her fingers. “[…I’ve let Sister Xinhui down!”

Right now, Gu Xiuxun felt very conflicted, a little happy and a little worried. She worshiped An Xinhui a lot, but she actually slept with her fiance. “Don’t think about it anymore. I’m the one who has let her down!”

Sun Mo sighed, wanting to get up. However, a fair and dainty hand pulled him back. (Wanting to leave after eating? It seems a little unethical, right?)

Hence, Sun Mo lay down again.

After that, he thought of a question. (I should have spent a lot yesterday, right? Yet, I failed to get that famed courtesan into bed. Doesn’t that mean that I’ve lost out too much?) “X…Xiuxun, I’m sorry!

Seeing that the masochist wasn’t talking, Sun Mo apologized again. “Actually, I don’t blame you!”

Gu Xiuxun’s voice was as weak as a mosquito’s buzz. She added another sentence mentally. (I actually feel a little joyful.)

The masochist secretly surveyed Sun Mo and grew increasingly happier the more she looked at him. Her face involuntarily cracked into a smile. (I’ve found a good man!)

But very soon later, the masochist was worried once more. (We haven’t determined our relationship, right?) (What if he refuses to acknowledge it?)

Upon thinking of this, Gu Xiuxun subconsciously hugged Sun Mo tighter. “Y…you…”

She wanted to ask but was afraid of receiving an even worse answer.

Sun Mo at this instant suddenly felt extremely blessed. His EQ shot through the roof, and he turned his body, pressing Gu Xiuxun down. After that, the large bed started shaking and emitting creaking sounds.

At the school gate.

Gu Xiuxun jumped down from the horse and ran away without even turning her head.

She felt like a thief and was extremely guilty. Hence, she didn’t dare to enter the school together with Sun Mo. If they ran into familiar people, things would be troublesome.

On the other hand, Sun Mo felt extremely refreshed. Could this be the legendary ‘losing at work but winning in love’?

Forget it, who cares? It was fine as long as he was happy.

As the saying goes, being a salted fish lets you be happy forever. Sun Mo discovered that after he ‘gave up on improving’, life became much more relaxed. Other than teaching classes normally, he would eat, drink, and be happy with Gu Xiuxun every day. During the weekend, he even had time to tour Jinling and the surrounding scenic spots to ‘cultivate’ his mind.

In this era, Sun Mo could casually ‘do it’ with Gu Xiuxun. There was no need for him to be worried about being captured by hidden cameras that were everywhere in the modern era.

Naturally, having money was a must!

Right now, Sun Mo was the richest man in Jinling, so he didn’t even bother to look at prices when he was buying stuff. He only cared about whether he liked it or not.

Sun Mo enjoyed such beautiful days for an entire month before it got interrupted. This was because Mei Ziyu had discovered something unusual going on between the two of them. She then decided to follow them everywhere they went, like a little puppy.

Gu Xiuxun was a girl from an ordinary family and at most, her family would just have some money. To put it unpleasantly, even if Sun Mo made her pregnant and didn’t want to be responsible, the problem wouldn’t be great. At most, he would be called a scum. But things were different with Mei Ziyu.

If Sun Mo dared to do anything reckless, his ‘mother-in-law’ Mei Yazhi would definitely lead her great teacher circle from Jixia Academy over the very next day to question him and hold him accountable.

On the outskirts, inside a Buddhist pagoda… “This can’t go on. Why don’t you ‘eat’ Ziyu as well?”

Gu Xiuxun tidied her skirt and suggested. (Oh no, you shot it onto my clothes!) “I only love you!”

Sun Mo hugged the masochist. “Pui!”

Gu Xiuxun rolled her eyes. “I realize that you are getting better and better at cheating girls.”

Although she said this, the masochist felt a sweetness in her heart. “Honestly speaking, it isn’t a solution for you to keep dragging things on. Ziyu clearly won’t marry anyone else but you!”

Gu Xiuxun was speechless. “Capable men all have three wives and six concubines. Why are you in such a dilemma?” “Well, I’m afraid I might become scum!”

Sun Mo smiled bitterly.

The two of them left the pagoda and discussed where to visit next.

After that, Gu Xiuxun stared at those oil-painted carriages passing by. The girls from rich clans within would occasionally push the curtains open and reveal a gap to secretly peek at Sun Mo. They would then cast jealous gazes at her, and she would feel very happy seeing that. (Such an outstanding man belongs to me now.)

Sun Mo’s days got increasingly tougher. This was especially so when Mei Ziyu used a gaze of bitter resentment to look at him. This would cause him to feel a heavy sense of guilt.

Luckily, An Xinhui had been told to go into closed-door seclusion by the old headmaster. Otherwise, if there was one more person tagging alone, Sun Mo would go crazy from anxiousness. (If I don’t rear fish, how can I be called the king of the oceans?)

Sun Mo viewed himself in contempt.

Just when he was hesitating whether he should reveal things to Mei Ziyu, Headmaster Ji of the Skyraise Academy suddenly sent an invitation letter over.

Headmaster Ji’s words were earnest and sincere. He hoped that Sun Mo could head over to the Skyraise Academy and participate in an exchange that would last half a year. “Why don’t you go?”

Gu Xiuxun felt so envious that her eyes turned green. “That’s the number one famous school in the Nine Provinces. Also, given Headmaster Ji’s wording, he regards you very highly. This is a great opportunity to forge a closer relationship with him!” 100 years ago, Ji Shiwen had created an era that belonged to him. One could say that he was the number one great teacher of the Nine Provinces. It was also him who had led the Skyraise Academy to the ‘throne’ among the supreme-grade schools. “Being able to chat with a major character like him can be considered an immense benefit!”

Gu Xiuxun pulled on Sun Mo’s arm and pleaded, “Bring me along, okay?”

The next day, Sun Mo went to look for An Zaiyi to apply for a long leave. “Headmaster Ji has sent me a letter and asked me not to stop you.”

The old headmaster hoisted his glasses up. “It’s good that you can go and take a look at the Skyraise Academy. Remember to speak less and observe more there.” “Mn!”

Sun Mo nodded. “The great teachers there could be said to be at the highest peak of the Nine Provinces. They are all very proud, so there’s an 80% to 90% chance that they might try to test you. Don’t be afraid, show them your dominance!”

The old headmaster encouraged Sun Mo.

Since it was to broaden horizons, Sun Mo naturally brought his students along. But right now, only Lu Zhiruo, Ying Baiwu, and Qin Yaoguang remained.

Tantai Yutang had gone to the northern plains to reinforce Helian Beifang, and Jiang Leng had gone to the Darkness Continent to temper himself.

Sun Mo set off three days later.

Gu Xiuxun and Mei Ziyu both accompanied him. “Ai, I originally thought that I could enjoy some alone time with Sun Mo. In the end, so many little puppies are following us!”

The masochist felt helpless.

The Skyraise Academy regarded Sun Mo very highly. When they arrived, Ji Shiwen personally showed up in welcome. One must know that Ji Shiwen was a saint. Hence, this respect and treatment was something at the extreme VIP level. “Let’s settle your lodgings first before we tour the school!”

Ji Shiwen was already over 200 years old, but he still looked like a middle-aged man. His hair was black and he didn’t have any wrinkles.

This indicated that his strength was exceedingly powerful, and he had stepped into the Longevity Realm at a very young age!.
