Chapter 472 Female Demon
“Guess who I am?” came a deliberately deep voice from behind, though still carrying a hint of coquettishness.
“Cuicui?” said Fang Yu without turning around.
“No, guess again,” the person replied.
“Xiaohong?” Fang Yu said again.
“No! Guess again!” The person’s tone was obviously somewhat indignant.
“Could it be Ruhua?” Fang Yu asked puzzlingly.
“Fang Yu, when did you get to know so many girls!?” Tang Xiaorou could no longer hold back, directly walking around to face Fang Yu, questioning him with furrowed brows.
Fang Yu looked up at Tang Xiaorou once, without saying a word.
Tang Xiaorou snorted angrily, then asked, “Where have you been these two weeks?”
“Traveling in the north,” said Fang Yu.
“Traveling? You neglected your work just for fun? Aren’t you afraid of losing your visiting professor title?” Tang Xiaorou sat down beside Fang Yu and asked.
Fang Yu didn’t answer this question, but instead looked at his watch.
It was now two twenty in the afternoon, with ten minutes left before class.
Fang Yu stood up and stretched.
“Do you know that guy?” Fang Yu asked.
“Who?” Tang Xiaorou followed Fang Yu’s line of sight to see He Chenchen surrounded by countless female students ahead, her expression slightly changing as she said, “I know him, he’s He Chenchen, a freshman from the Mathematics Department. He’s very famous among female students. The girls in my class discuss him every day…”
Fang Yu nodded and asked again, “Do you know anything about his family background?”
“…I heard from female classmates that he comes from a mysterious family in Xiangcheng, but others say he’s just an ordinary student…” Tang Xiaorou rubbed her cheeks as she said.
“Okay, let’s go back to the classroom for class.” Fang Yu glanced once more at He Chenchen on the basketball court, then turned and walked toward the teaching building.
Tang Xiaorou quickly followed Fang Yu and asked, “Fang Yu, why are you asking so much about He Chenchen? He’s not even a student from the Literature Department.”
“Nothing, just curious,” Fang Yu replied.
Tang Xiaorou’s beautiful eyes were full of suspicion as she looked at Fang Yu for several seconds before looking away.
The two went upstairs together to the classroom.
When Fang Yu taught his first class, the classroom was packed, with many students having to stand in the space at the back of the classroom to listen, quite a sensation.
But this time when they arrived at the classroom, it was much emptier.
The huge lecture hall that could accommodate two hundred people was only about one-third filled, with students scattered here and there.
“The professor who substituted for you is called the Female Demon by the Literature Department students… so many students don’t want to take this course anymore,” Tang Xiaorou whispered to Fang Yu before entering the classroom.
Fang Yu nodded, his expression unchanged.
He became a visiting professor not because he truly wanted to teach students, but simply because he hadn’t tried this profession before and found it somewhat novel.
Whether there were many students or few, the class would be taught the same way, no difference.
After entering the classroom, Tang Xiaorou walked to the seats and sat in the first row.
Fang Yu walked toward the podium.
The students in their seats were either chatting with each other or looking down at their phones, no one noticing Fang Yu’s arrival.
“Ring…”
Only when the bell rang did these students look up.
Seeing Fang Yu on the podium, their expressions all changed.
“Isn’t this Professor Fang from before? Wasn’t he said to have resigned? Why is he back?”
“Yeah, why is Professor Fang back?”
“Damn! The Female Demon is finally gone! The sun has risen, brothers!”
Most students who had attended the first class had a very good impression of Fang Yu.
Especially after the Female Demon came to substitute, forming a stark contrast.
Many students cheered.
By now, the classroom was half full, with about a hundred people.
Fang Yu cleared his throat, about to speak.
“Click, click, click…”
At this moment, a series of crisp high-heel sounds came from the front door of the classroom.
A middle-aged woman in her forties or fifties walked in from outside.
She glanced at the students in the classroom, then at Fang Yu.
Her somewhat harsh face immediately darkened as she quickly walked toward the podium.
After this woman appeared, the previously somewhat noisy classroom immediately quieted down.
Why did the Female Demon come too?
The students were all puzzled.
“Which class are you from? Class has started, why aren’t you back in your seat? What are you standing here for?” The woman walked up to Fang Yu and bombarded him with a series of questions.
“I’m Fang Yu. I was teaching this course before. Didn’t Guo Gang tell you?” Fang Yu said calmly.
“Fang Yu? You’re that visiting professor?” The woman narrowed her eyes and asked.
“Yes, I left Xiangcheng for a couple of weeks due to some matters, and now I’m back…” Fang Yu explained.
“I don’t care who you are. I haven’t received any notification. This class should be taught by me. I don’t want to lose my perfect attendance!” the woman said.
Seeing this woman’s arrogant manner, Fang Yu frowned.
Did Guo Gang really not notify her? Should he still teach this class or not?
“What’s your name?” Fang Yu asked.
“I’m Mo Juan,” the woman answered.
“Are you a teacher from the Literature Department?” Fang Yu asked again.
“Of course, I’ve been working at Nandu University for almost ten years!” Mo Juan replied impatiently, “If you have questions, ask later. Don’t delay the students’ class!”
“You’re from the Literature Department, so why didn’t I see you at the department meeting before?” Fang Yu asked again.
Mo Juan’s face twitched slightly.
This question hit right at her heart.
The meeting held by the Literature Department before the semester started was only for faculty with associate professor titles or above.
She had worked at Nandu University for ten years, receiving poor evaluations from students every year.
So, despite her seniority, she still couldn’t get promoted and remained just a lecturer, without the qualifications to attend the Literature Department’s teaching research meetings.
“You’re just an externally hired visiting professor who has been absent for two consecutive weeks. The teaching group is already considering firing you. Why say so much? Leave quickly, don’t hinder my class!” Mo Juan said shrilly.
At this moment, the students sitting in the classroom were all silently worried for Fang Yu.
Mo Juan’s nickname, the Female Demon, was mainly due to her attitude.
Except when facing superiors, she always wore a harsh, sour face and confronted everyone she met.
If she was in a bad mood, she could even write down the names of more than a dozen students in one class session and submit them for disciplinary action.
The students were miserable.
Now that Fang Yu was arguing with Mo Juan… Fang Yu would probably be at a disadvantage.
On the podium, Fang Yu looked at the angry-faced Mo Juan, a smile appearing on his face.
He originally didn’t want to argue with Mo Juan, but her attitude was really too poor, so there was no choice.
“This morning I received a call from Guo Gang of the Personnel Department, who asked me to come back to teach. As for whether he notified you, that’s not my concern,” Fang Yu smiled.
Fang Yu’s smile completely ignited Mo Juan’s anger.
It was bad enough that her title was inferior to a young man who had just graduated not long ago, but this young man also gave her no face at all!
“I said he didn’t notify me, so he didn’t notify me! You arguing with me here is just wasting the students’ time! Think about it clearly!” Mo Juan glared at Fang Yu and said.
“I’ll ask Guo Gang to come over and hear what he has to say,” Fang Yu said.
“What use is the Personnel Department! I only listen to the arrangements of the Literature Department’s teaching group!” Mo Juan said rudely.
Fang Yu ignored Mo Juan’s words and sent a text message to Guo Gang anyway.
Mo Juan slammed her book on the table with a ‘bang’, then stood there motionless.
Since you won’t give me face, we’ll just wait it out!
Wasting the students’ entire class period in this way, let’s see how the Literature Department’s teaching group punishes you!
Mo Juan laughed coldly in her heart.
Fang Yu wore a calm smile, looking at Mo Juan without speaking.
About five minutes later, Guo Gang hurriedly ran in from outside the classroom.
“Counselor Mo, Professor Fang, good afternoon.” Guo Gang wiped the sweat from his forehead, then handed over a piece of white paper.
“I’ve said it before, I don’t care about any arrangements from your Personnel Department, I only listen to the Literature Department!” Mo Juan didn’t even look at the paper and said.
“Counselor Mo, this is the course notification issued by the Literature Department this morning… The teaching secretary has already sent messages to your phone and email…” Guo Gang said.
