Xia Zhu's words once again drew puzzled looks from everyone—what else did Miss Xia, the beauty teacher, wonder about?

Ye Hao gave Xia Zhu a look that said, 'I understand you.' Seeing that, Xia Zhu also grasped Ye Hao's meaning. Although she felt a bit embarrassed, she really couldn't teach the English written on the blackboard to the students. Instead of erasing it, it was better to let Ye Hao explain it to them.

Even if Ye Hao's explanation wasn't professional, she could still understand some of it while listening on the side, and later, she could incorporate some of that knowledge into the lessons.

"Ye Hao, I want to ask you, did you graduate from Harvard and come back to experience life again?" Xia Zhu wanted to ask Ye Hao to instruct the students but felt shy about asking directly.

So she planned to chat with Ye Hao indirectly for a bit, then have him introduce the latest international common language to everyone when the timing was right.

"How could that be possible? If I really graduated from Harvard, I would have started my own business long ago; why would I come back to experience student life again?" Ye Hao replied, refusing to fall into her trap.

"Hmm, that's true. But I'm really curious, where did you learn English?" Xia Zhu decided to get straight to the point.

"Self-taught. No one taught me. Even if you pick any English word now, I might not be able to pronounce it properly," Ye Hao said with a smile from the podium.

Initially, entering the academy felt daunting and nerve-wracking, but as he truly integrated into this class, Ye Hao suddenly realized that living in the city was actually quite nice, at least not too nerve-wracking.

Occasionally, there would be a beautiful voice nearby, or he'd get into playful arguments with beautiful girls. It's one of life's great pleasures.

At that moment, Ye Hao's mindset shifted a bit. He no longer adhered strictly to conventions; after all, life doesn't have many decades, and once a decade passes, he's ten years closer to death. A person's life should be lived to feel alive, in the way they desire.

"Self-taught? That's amazing, Ye Hao. But I'd like to hear your take on those latest international English phrases written on the board. Could you share your insights on English with the class?" Xia Zhu's last comment drew the whole class into the scenario with Ye Hao. If Ye Hao refused, it would seem like he didn't want to engage with the entire class.

Although Xia Zhu didn't know Ye Hao well, she felt confident that someone who could write so much English must have an understanding, so she wasn't too worried about him rejecting her.

Hearing this, Ye Hao nodded and did not refuse, because Xia Zhu's intentions were clear. Refusing would only ruin the atmosphere among classmates.

Even without Qianqian, Ye Hao's understanding of English was better than many others because, during training camp, he had to practice multiple languages.

Additionally, because he'd been out and about, traveling to other countries and communicating with people from various nations, his English became more fluent and smooth—even delivering authentic royal English wasn't a problem.

A single class wasn't enough for Ye Hao to finish explaining everything on the board, so even after class, no one left. They quietly listened as Ye Hao fervently explained various usages, and the classmates felt that, with his guidance, many things they memorized by rote became easier to understand.

Xia Zhu, at this moment, was filled with doubt. Could he really be an English professor from another country? The myriad understandings coming from his mouth were like a live version of Baidu Encyclopedia.

Even Baidu Encyclopedia might not cover it all—as Ye Hao could explain each word in the simplest way for them to remember, including pronunciation, and so on.

Lin Ruyu gazed at Ye Hao as if she had discovered a treasure, internally exclaiming that she had hit the jackpot. This was her bodyguard! Overflowing combat power, peculiar magic, top-notch English...

Su Qing watched Ye Hao's growing success with increasing fear, as if she was afraid that someone else might snatch away such an accomplished Ye Hao...

"Long, do you think my brother is amazing?" Lu Yunsong, Xue Zhaolong, and Zhuorong Town had a relationship much like the three bushes in LOL, going to school, eating, and sleeping in class together every day.

Now, seeing Ye Hao's impressive performance, Lu Yunsong admired Ye Hao even more.

"Yeah, whatever. I'm not interested in English, but his jabbering seems amusing," Xue Zhaolong thought about what kind of flowers to buy for Lin Ruyu later, paying no attention to Lu Yunsong.

He was even considering asking Ye Hao for tips after class—how to magically produce a bouquet of roses. Such magical tricks are something any man would want to learn.

After all, the chance to show off in front of girls is something no man would pass up.

Lu Yunsong noticed Xue Zhaolong's gaze and couldn't help but mockingly say, "Stop dreaming, Mr. Ye won't let you pursue that girl. Just focus on your studies for now!"

Xue Zhaolong ignored him, naively thinking of what Lin Tian had said—that Lin Ruyu always mentioned him at home as if he were Xue Zhaolong...

Of course, back then, Lin Tian was talking about all of them, not just Xue Zhaolong, but Xue Zhaolong had automatically filtered out his two partners, making it seem like it was him alone.

So, looking at Lin Ruyu's silhouette, his love poured forth unrestrained, reaching the point of blindly falling in love.

"Long, who do you think is better, you or Ye Hao?" Zhuorong Town timely asked.

"There's no need to ask; I can't beat him. Even if the three of us team up, we couldn't take him down," Xue Zhaolong shook his head directly, admitting that his combat power was nowhere near Ye Hao's, not even with all three combined.

"Since you know you can't beat Mr. Ye, don't call us to help if Mr. Ye decides to teach you a lesson. I don't want to get beaten up," Zhuorong Town remarked shrewdly, thinking that if Mr. Ye had an interest in that girl, and you keep bothering her, you'd only provoke Mr. Ye into beating you up.

"That's right! When the boss is beating you up, don't drag me into seeking revenge. I still want to live. Of course! If you get beaten up, don't say your brothers didn't help you!" Lu Yunsong isn't stupid. If Xue Zhaolong can win over Lin Ruyu, that's great, but if he can't and Ye Hao also likes her, it's going to be a clash of the titans.

They've been through thick and thin with Ye Hao, and Xue Zhaolong grew up with them. Even if they wanted to help Xue Zhaolong, when they thought about Ye Hao's formidable reputation, they didn't dare to step in.

So they told Xue Zhaolong in advance that if the two of them ever fought, they definitely wouldn't be helping.

"No way, I believe my efforts will impress her eventually." Xue Zhaolong shrugged off his friends' comments with disdain.

"Haha! Then congratulations in advance..."

Two classes passed quietly like this. Ye Hao, feeling a bit parched, coughed from the podium and said, "That's about the basics. Of course, I can't guarantee everything I said is correct, it's just for your reference."

After speaking, Ye Hao returned to his seat while Xia Zhu was lost in thought, thinking to himself: Is this girl having fluttering feelings for me?

Thinking of this, Ye Hao's face unexpectedly turned red.

"Ahem!" Ye Hao coughed twice, bringing Xia Zhu back to reality.

Seeing Ye Hao return, she spoke a bit shyly, "Ye Hao, you're impressive, thanks for the hard work, you can sit down now!"

After saying this, Xia Zhu left Ye Hao's seat.

The first thing Ye Hao did when he sat down was reach into his bag and pull out his water bottle.

Since his backpack was hanging with Lin Ruyu's, he mistakenly took Lin Ruyu's water bottle. All three of them had identical bottles bought by Zhang Fu, so Ye Hao didn't suspect anything.

"Gulp... Gulp... Gulp!"

The bottle nozzle hit Ye Hao's lips, and he gulped down big mouthfuls.

But after the first sip, he noticed something was off...

Taking another big sip, he tasted something sweet and wondered when his water bottle had sweet water?

He took a look at the bottle and saw the water inside was red. He remembered his water was clear, how could this be?

He thought, could it be that the girl next to him played a prank and added something? He looked at Lin Ruyu accusatorially and asked, "Girl, did you mess with me again?"

Lin Ruyu was recalling the English Ye Hao taught, and when Ye Hao asked her, she looked puzzled and said, "What do you mean by messing with you again?"

Seeing this, Ye Hao thought, you're still pretending, let's see if I can't make you reveal your true self?

"Did you pour some medicine or add some weird stuff into my bottle? I say, girl, can you stop messing around? Don't you know if I eat something unclean, I'll lose strength? Without strength, I can't protect you, understand? Have some common sense, okay?" Ye Hao glared at Lin Ruyu, lowering his head.

The more Lin Ruyu listened, the more confused she became, wondering why this guy was acting crazy. Why would I put medicine in his bottle?

"Nonsense..." Lin Ruyu rolled her eyes at Ye Hao, but then she saw the bottle in Ye Hao's hand, and it became clear to her.

Her eyes slowly turned dangerous, as if a nuclear explosion was imminent.

"What are you doing?" Ye Hao asked, a bit ignorant and without much confidence.

"Didn't you just accuse me of putting something in your drink? Is that something sweet? And the liquid inside is red?" Lin Ruyu asked, trying to control her temper.

"Yes! That's what I said! Did you really drug me? Girl, you have absolutely no moral baseline, trying to kill me. Don't bodyguards have any love? There's absolutely no affection here, girl..."

"Really? Do you feel warm in your stomach and a pleasant sensation down your throat?" Lin Ruyu continued to suppress her temper and asked again.

"Indeed! What's this medicine? Should I go to the hospital for a check-up? You're paying for the medical bills, you know," Ye Hao said, looking at Lin Ruyu, sounding very needy...

"To hell with you, get lost!" At this moment, Lin Ruyu's voice echoed through the entire classroom like a thunderclap...
