Chapter 46: 044 Mysterious Vest
“…”
The class fell silent again.
Xiu Yu almost cut his own eyebrow, steadied himself, and said, “Daddy Ying, you’re not joking, right?”
Their Daddy Ying, wasn’t he a complete dunce at school?
Ying Zijin stood up, her tone casual but serious, “No.”
“Your book looks even newer than mine.”
“Just finished reading it.”
Xiu Yu: “…”
True to form, Daddy Ying.
While the whole class was still confused, the girl picked up her book and slowly made her way to the podium.
She rolled up her uniform sleeves and reached for a piece of chalk.
“Let’s start with genetic engineering,” Ying Zijin turned around and drew a circle on the blackboard, “This is a circular DNA, this DNA has one to several cutting sites, which can be opened with restriction endonucleases.”
“There are generally three classes of restriction enzymes.” As she spoke, she wrote down the key points with chalk, “The book only gives us two types, let’s distinguish them now…”
As they listened, the students were shocked.
“Damn!” The little brother was already stunned, “Brother Ran, Daddy Ying really knows how to teach.”
And, even though he never studied, he understood everything she said, amazing!
Jiang Ran’s eyebrows twitched and he sat back down.
He still looked impatient, but his gaze never left the blackboard.
“Genetic engineering is actually about creating new types of organisms that we need. The insect-resistant cotton you are familiar with is an application of genetic engineering, and there are these as well.”
Ying Zijin turned to the side, casually sketching.
Jiang Ran got so engrossed without realizing it.
When he snapped back to reality, his face darkened, and in exasperation, he threw his uniform jacket over himself and lay on the table, shutting out the world.
What the hell, she’s skilled at fighting, and now she can teach too?
The class was silent, with only the sound of pens scratching on paper.
A forty-five-minute class had never passed so quickly.
After class, everyone in the class went mad, swarming around.
“Daddy Ying, I give up, from today on, you’re my dad.”
“A dad is a dad, way better than what the Old Witch Bai teaches. She spends half the class just scolding people.”
“Please let Daddy Ying teach every biology class, as long as Daddy Ying dares to teach, I could make it into the top ten in the school for biology alone.”
“Come on, not even Daddy Ying can save your IQ, you think you can compete with those freaks in the Elite Class?”
“Um, if there’s anything else you don’t understand—” Ying Zijin paused, seemed to remember something, and corrected herself, “Figure it out on your own.”
“Pfft!” Xiu Yu choked with laughter, “Did you hear that? Don’t disturb your dad’s sleep.”
The students dispersed, their spirits high.
Xiu Yu passed over some washed strawberries, “Tell me the truth, is there anything you don’t know?”
Ying Zijin, leaning back in her chair, did not show any modesty, “In academic terms, I know pretty much everything.”
Xiu Yu pointed to a physics elective book, “What about this?”
Ying Zijin glanced sideways at the book’s section on electric fields and laws, paused for a bit, then nodded, “Want to listen?”
“No, no, no, I don’t want to study,” Xiu Yu hastily waved his hands, then curiously added, “But that’s weird, Daddy Ying, with you being so capable, were the people in the Elite Class blind?”
Ying Zijin didn’t respond to that.
She pressed her temples, and after a long moment, let out two words: “It’s fine.”
The next period was physical education, and as Xiu Yu changed his shoes, he casually asked, “It’s fine, what?”
Ying Zijin shook her head and tore open a bag of chips.
It’s just as well that when she was learning with those scholars in O Continent, she didn’t leave her name, otherwise, seeing herself in the textbooks could be embarrassingly awkward.

Bai Shaoshi had been sitting in the office, waiting for the students from Class 19 to ask her to come back.
Apart from her, who else would be willing to teach biology to Class 19?
But Bai Shaoshi waited and waited to the right, and even after class was over, she still hadn’t waited for them to come, finally unable to sit still any longer.
However, before she could go to the teaching building, the door was pushed open.
Only then did Bai Shaoshi feel relieved, casually playing with her nails, “So, you’ve made a decision?”
She knew they would give in.
The person who came was the very same errand boy from before.
The errand boy’s face lacked the flattery Bai Shaoshi had expected, instead, he was beaming with joy, “Teacher Bai, Brother Ran told me to tell you, you don’t have to come anymore.”
Bai Shaoshi’s smile froze, “What did you say?”
“You don’t need to teach our class anymore,” the errand boy repeated, “Brother Ran also told me to tell you, your lectures are shit.”
He didn’t look at Bai Shaoshi again, muttering as he walked out, “Worse than Daddy Ying by a long shot, still have the nerve to pose here, pah…”
Bai Shaoshi shook with rage, eyebrows slanting.
She knew He Xun disliked Ying Zijin, so he had let that comment slip, but she didn’t expect 19th class would rather forgo biology lessons than kick out Ying Zijin.
Things really had turned upside-down, she was determined to go tattle to the principal.
Bai Shaoshi took out her cellphone, ready to dial, but the call came through first.
She hurriedly answered, “Hello, Principal.”
The voice on the other end was unhurried, “Teacher Bai, students from class 19 came to me, saying you’re unwilling to teach their biology class.”
Bai Shaoshi’s heart tightened, she quickly laughed, “Principal, that’s not the case, I’m just feeling unwell.”
“I’ve thought it over and considering the students’ feelings, I’ve agreed that you no longer need to teach biology to class 19, Teacher Bai, could you please go to the biology department head to hand over your duties.”
The call ended.
Bai Shaoshi stared blankly at the tabletop, her whole body jittery.
Losing one class, she would lose a lot of money.
Verdant, in order to retain good teachers, paid very high salaries.
Especially the teachers of the 19th class, because it was difficult to manage.
She had her eyes on this very reason when she volunteered to take the 19th class.
Ying Zijin, that student, was incompetent in everything, only causing trouble.
Without a lesson, she was really going to turn the sky upside down.
Bai Shaoshi, face cold, dialed another number.

At eleven o’clock at night.
First Hospital was brightly lit.
Inside the operating room, a few expert physicians were flustered and busy.
Nurses scurried back and forth, even the dean had personally arrived.
The atmosphere was extremely grave.
No one expected that Old Master Fu would suddenly fall ill tonight and pass out directly.
He had longstanding illness in his body from earlier years, and with old age, problems with blood pressure and sugar had emerged.
Three years ago, the doctors already advised the Fu Family to prepare mentally, yet Old Master Fu had managed to hold on for so long.
It could be said to be a miracle.
The members of the Fu Family all sat together, anxiously waiting.
Only Fu Yunshen stood against the wall by himself.
As if he didn’t quite fit in.
The Fu Family also didn’t spare him a glance.
Fu Yunshen’s expression was indifferent, holding a cellphone, a voice coming through the Bluetooth earpiece in his left ear.
“You were already too late when you found me three years ago, with your grandfather’s condition, even the Ancient medical field in Hua Country can’t save him.”
He paused, “Unless, you can find that one person.”
Hearing this, Fu Yunshen lifted his head slightly, his eyes cold and tranquil.
He naturally knew who that one person was.
