NOVPUB"Brother, you can’t!"
Xu Qingfan’s forehead creased with a row of black lines, "What on earth are you thinking about every day? I meant to shower in another bathroom, not together!"
"Owww~ It hurts." Lin Wanning, who had leapt up to grab Xu Qingfan’s clothes, received a knock on her head in return.
"Hmph~ So we’re showering separately. Then it’s fine, Brother Fan, you go ahead." Xiao Ruawen waved her hand, signaling Xu Qingfan was free to leave.
Xia Xiaoxiao acted as if nothing had happened, getting up and sitting down in front of the computer.
"I... I’ll go back to my room to find clothes." Despite the misunderstanding being cleared up, Wu Lingyu’s face was still a bit flushed, and after sneaking a glance at Xu Qingfan, she scurried back to her room.
Wu Lingyu didn’t know what was wrong with her. What was this strange feeling of loss?
After flicking Lin Wanning’s dazed hair, Xu Qingfan also went back to his room to find clothes.
The executive suite’s bathroom was equipped with a huge massage bathtub, but he had a slight obsession with cleanliness, uncomfortable using personal items others had used, even bath towels for showering were his own.
Although this is a five-star hotel and the hotel disinfects and cleans items after guests leave, Xu Qingfan always believed in the principle that you get what you pay for.
The cleaning lady’s meager salary of a little more than two thousand a month, how could she possibly clean meticulously? It was already quite good to clean up the visible stains.
However, on the flip side, no one who comes to work as a cleaning lady in a five-star hotel is there for the salary; it’s the discarded resources that are the real deal.
The moment the hot water hit his scalp was probably the most relaxing time of the day; Xu Qingfan brushed his teeth and washed his hair at the same time, and he finished his shower in less than ten minutes.
When he came out of the bathroom dressed, the four girls were huddled around the laptop, looking at the article he had written.
"Xu Qingfan, when did you write this?" Catching a glimpse of Xu Qingfan, Xia Xiaoxiao asked.
"I wrote it on the plane. How is it?" Xu Qingfan hung the towel around his neck and sat down in the middle of the four girls.
"How could she be so mean!" Lin Wanning had only read half of it, but the content described was already enough to infuriate her.
"Brother Fan, how do you know all this? Even things like her confiscating students’ phones for her own use, and leaking exam questions to students attending her cram school." Xiao Ruawen asked curiously.
Xia Xiaoxiao also looked at him with a puzzled expression, clearly just as baffled.
"Pssh—saw it on the forums, saw it on the forums. Now move aside; I need to correct the typos." Xu Qingfan casually brushed it off with an explanation.
"Brother Qing Fan, are you going to post it online for netizens to scold her!"
"Such a bad person can actually be a teacher. It’s a good thing we caught her. We have to make her lose her job so she can’t go out and harm others anymore!"
"I’ll try my best, hoping to get her out of the teaching team before the trip is over."
Xu Qingfan continued to correct typos, while the four of them quietly read the content on the screen.
The article was still written from a first-person perspective, immersively describing how Shan Fengtao, while she was a teacher, tormented "me."
In the classes taught by Shan Fengtao, body and bag searches were the norm. Those with poor grades who didn’t attend her cram school were unforgivable.
The "I" in the article was a left-behind child from the countryside, who due to lack of educational resources, did not get exposed to English until junior high school.
For a beginner learning ABCs, diving straight into junior high school English was far-fetched. "I" scored only 13 points in English in the midterm exam, but scored as high as 140 points in math and Chinese.
During a parent-teacher meeting, Shan Fengtao hinted to the parents that children who were poor in English could enroll in her cram school, but it cost five hundred yuan per class. "I" couldn’t afford the money for the cram school, and thus, "my" three years of junior high school nightmare officially began...
At the end of the article, "I" reminisced while on a construction site with steel and concrete: I was once also a student with both good conduct and grades; would my life have been different with another homeroom teacher?
Although it was him who wrote the article, by the end, Xu Qingfan couldn’t help but feel like kicking Shan Fengtao a couple of times.
This story wasn’t something he entirely made up; back in his past life, when he was in junior high, Shan Fengtao, for some reason, shared a similar tale with them, which made it fresh in his memory.
Lin Wanning and Zhang Yiyi had strong empathy, and after reading the entire article, their eyes were already red.
Xu Qingfan scrolled the mouse upwards, found his own QQ, and clicked on the QQ Space entrance under his avatar.
In 2008, if you asked which social platform was the hottest in China, it would undeniably be QQ Space.
After copying the article into the "What’s on your mind?" box, and writing "Licheng Middle School teacher Shan Fengtao, won’t your conscience hurt?" in the title area in the upper left corner, he adjusted the format and clicked the publish button.
Just doing this, of course, wasn’t enough; the posts on QQ Space could only be seen by friends on QQ, but don’t forget that Xu Qingfan had fan groups.
He had eight fan groups of 2000 people each for Hilarious Daily, and four fan groups of 500 people each for Experimental Primary School. Although many people had joined several groups, all together there were easily at least ten thousand people.
He removed the privacy settings from his QQ Space and immediately @everyone in the group:
[Past Becomes Wind: Fam, help me share the top post on my QQ Space. If possible, mobilize your friends to share as well. Fighting against bad teachers is everyone’s responsibility!]
[Loyal Brother Fan’s Fanboy: OMG Brother Fan!]
[Wanna Be Brother Fan’s Dog: Brother Fan, I miss you so much!]
[Fan!]
[...]
The chatroom was instantly flooded with messages, and after he pinned the message to the top as a group announcement, he did the same in the remaining groups.
"Brother Qing Fan, we want to share too!"
"Share it on our QQ as well!"
The girls behind him said one after another after watching Xu Qingfan’s operation. 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘱𝘶𝘣.𝘤𝘰𝑚
"Sure, I will share it now."
After he opened Lin Wanning’s QQ, it was only a few minutes before hundreds of comments had flooded the comments section of Xu Qingfan’s post.
By the time he opened Xiao Ruawen’s space to share the post, the number of shares had already surpassed 99+. The rest was now up to time.
