Chapter 19

With a hiss, Zeng Ya’s hand immediately pulled back the moment she touched the thing. She felt the temperature—it was actually hot! And the thing she touched seemed to be awakened like a sleeping lion, suddenly standing up!

He’s a living person! By the time Zeng Ya realized this, Ding Hao had also opened his eyes. It was because the medicine Chen Fang gave him last night was too strong, combined with the alcohol. Although the battle with Zhou Fuquan was not carried out due to his influence, his body was still very tired. He got up early in the morning and fought monsters in the magical space for a while before having lunch, so he slept very soundly and didn’t wake up even when someone came!

"Ah..." Seeing Ding Hao suddenly open his eyes, Zeng Ya let out a scream and quickly ran out of the cave. She was now both embarrassed and scared! He actually woke up, and he was a living person. What did she do just now? It was so embarrassing, she actually reached out to touch...

Ding Hao was also frustrated. He was sleeping well, and not only was he disturbed, but he was almost picked like a mushroom while naked. Ding Hao sat up, and his lower part immediately rose. He quickly got up, wanting to find clothes to wear.

"Don’t come over!" Zeng Ya ran while looking back. Seeing Ding Hao stand up, she thought he was chasing her and was terrified.

"Please don’t shout, you’ll attract the wolves!" Ding Hao, with a tired face, slowly picked up his clothes from the ground and put them on.

Hearing this, Zeng Ya quickly covered her mouth. She wasn’t afraid of wolves, but of the people above. Accidentally peeping was already very awkward, and she even reached out to touch him, and was caught in the act. She even suspected that the man did it on purpose, to play a trick on her!

After Ding Hao put on his clothes, he suddenly felt something was wrong. Hmm, this voice is so familiar, and this figure... Oh no, this is... Does she not recognize me?

"Hey, what are you thinking?" Seeing the woman who was about to run away squat down at the cave entrance, looking aggrieved, Ding Hao felt the situation was serious, but also quite amusing. This woman was much shyer than Chen Fang. It’s just that she saw a man, not that a man saw her. Chen Fang was so arrogant even when a man saw her.

Zeng Ya felt like dying and didn’t dare to respond.

"Who are you? How did you get here?" Ding Hao didn’t give up. If he scared the young girl with his naked sleep, and she got angry and called the police, his hiding place would be exposed. However, he wouldn’t dare to recognize his teacher.

"Are you a wild man? Why aren’t you wearing clothes..." Zeng Ya’s voice was as soft as a mosquito’s.

"Wild man? Have you ever seen a wild man speak? I’m already dressed, right? Actually, I thought this place was remote and no one would come, so I slept naked to save my clothes."

It was the first time she heard that someone slept naked to save clothes!

"Why aren’t you talking? My name is Ding Hao. If I scared you, I sincerely apologize!" Saying this, Ding Hao politely extended his right hand.

Zeng Ya didn’t shake hands with Ding Hao but reluctantly turned around and looked at him as if he were a monster. Only now did she confirm that Ding Hao was a living person, not a corpse, and a normal person, not a wild man. Ding Hao seemed even more handsome in clothes! This was her current thought!

Zeng Ya didn’t speak, and Ding Hao had no choice but to sit down against the cave wall and look at the woman in front of him. He had to admit, this woman was quite good-looking, not as flirtatious as Chen Fang but not lacking in allure. He never noticed how beautiful his English teacher was. Oh, right, she didn’t wear such a short skirt at school! Although she was wearing sports clothes, it couldn’t hide her intellectual charm. The only other intellectual beauty in the area was Zhou Fuquan’s eldest daughter, so Ding Hao was still unfamiliar with this type of beauty.

"Ms. Zeng?" Ding Hao knew that continuing to pretend would be more awkward, so he scratched his head and asked, "How did you get down here?"

"Ding Hao! I came for a home visit!" Zeng Ya had already remembered Ding Hao’s name, and since Ding Hao was about to call her, she couldn’t pretend not to know him. However, she couldn’t explain her previous actions to Ding Hao, so she quickly thought of her other task.

"Home visit?"

"Yes, why are you here instead of at home?"

"Ms. Zeng, that... actually..." With just one sentence, Zeng Ya turned the situation around. After all, she was the teacher, and Ding Hao had no choice.

"What are you looking at?" When Zeng Ya calmed down, she noticed Ding Hao staring at her without restraint, which made her angry again.

"You’re so unreasonable. I apologized, and you don’t even respond. You’re so beautiful, and you don’t even let people look?" Ding Hao’s flattery was subtle, and Zeng Ya felt flattered. Since the situation had already happened, Ding Hao knew that being afraid wouldn’t help, and he couldn’t always be led by the teacher.

"Why do you live here like a wild man?"

"Did Xia Lin bring you here?" Ding Hao answered irrelevantly, as he naturally didn’t believe Zeng Ya came for a home visit in the cave.

"Yes, she brought us here!"

"You... Where is Xia Lin now?" Ding Hao felt even more headache. He had enough trouble recently, and now his teacher had seen him and even tried to touch his private parts! And there were a few other teachers? If Xia Lin found out, she would skin him alive!

"They are above... The village chief also came with us." Zeng Ya’s blush hadn’t faded.

"Then go up. Don’t tell them I’m here, okay?"

"What’s wrong with you?" Zeng Ya was about to ask more when her phone rang. She had been down for some time, and the people above were getting worried.

"Hello, I’m fine, I’m fine. There’s nothing interesting down here. I’ll go up in a bit, don’t come down..."

"Tell me, what’s going on? You seem afraid of Xia Lin and the others?" After dealing with the people above, Zeng Ya completely calmed down. No matter how she looked at this man, who was actually a boy of about seventeen or eighteen, she was several years older and a teacher, so she couldn’t lose her composure in class!

"Ms. Zeng... I just worry that the village chief will leak my whereabouts..." Facing the teacher’s questioning, Ding Hao had to tell the truth. He didn’t want this lovely Ms. Zeng to bring Zhou Fuquan and Xia Lin again.

"So you’re a fugitive!"

"Don’t make it sound so serious! You know, in today’s society, Zhang Yongwei and those hooligans use their power in the county to boss around the police..."

After hearing Ding Hao’s story about Zhang Yongwei, Zeng Ya’s impression of him improved. She thought, a little hooligan can actually be brave and righteous at times. At this moment, the people above called again. Zeng Ya had to get up and suddenly remembered a question: "How did you get down here, and how do you get up?"

"Let’s just say you go up first. The people above will worry otherwise."

"Why don’t you come up with me? I can talk to the village chief and ask him to help you..."

"Never mind, I’ll stay here. Remember to keep it a secret!"

"Alright, then will you stay in the dormitory for your senior year?" Zeng Ya clearly didn’t forget the main purpose of the home visit.

"Oh, we’ll see. I’ll think about it. My phone number is 186..." Ding Hao also answered irrelevantly. Zeng Ya quickly wrote down Ding Hao’s number on her phone and headed to where the rope was. With the help of the people above, she soon climbed up to the peak.

Interrupted by the female teacher, Ding Hao naturally couldn’t continue sleeping and entered the space to continue fighting and leveling up.

When Zeng Ya went up, she was immediately surrounded by people. How was it? What did you find down there? Zeng Ya pretended to be out of breath, shook her head, and said she didn’t find anything.

"Teachers, I think there’s nothing here. It used to be a place where people lived, but it became like this after a landslide. There are so few trees that there aren’t even any large wild animals." Zhou Fuquan hoped these brave female teachers would go back now. This desolate mountain was just a novelty for the city girls.

Everyone wanted to see what Zeng Ya had taken on her phone. Zeng Ya immediately ran away, remembering that there were photos of someone’s private parts on her phone. Thinking of the naked boy, Zeng Ya blushed again. She wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight!

"Xia Ya, what’s wrong?" Seeing Zeng Ya’s distracted state, a female teacher beside her asked with concern.

"Nothing."

"Did you see something down there?"

"No, just a bit tired from climbing. Let’s go, we need to get back soon." This outdoor adventure was the most rewarding for Zeng Ya. She successfully descended to the bottom of the canyon and found a large cave, and most importantly, she discovered that ‘male corpse’!

Soon, the group returned to the village. Zhou Fuquan insisted on keeping the three teachers for dinner, and Zeng Ya and the others couldn’t refuse, so they stayed.

"Xia Lin, are you familiar with Ding Hao?" When they had some free time, Zeng Ya asked Xia Lin.

"Yes, why?"

"What’s his family situation?"

"He’s an orphan, but last year..."

Xia Lin didn’t know why the teacher was interested in Ding Hao. Was Ding Hao in the canyon?

From Xia Lin, Zeng Ya finally confirmed that Ding Hao hadn’t lied to her. This handsome young boy was actually forced to live in a cave to help others? What a strange person! Unfortunately, she didn’t plan to stay at Yungang No. 2 Middle School, and she didn’t know if she would see that handsome young boy again after leaving.
