Reborn as a Mortal Heiress Pampered by Big Shots-Chapter 195 - 189 Found a nemesis!!_3

In the midst of throngs of students, there was a lively figure that stood out, with hair prematurely gray.

Squeezed among a few boys, one of them was Zou Wu.

Zou Wu caught a glimpse of a silver-white patch out of the corner of his eye, turned around, and saw that magnified face, which made him shiver violently.

"Tian, Principal Tian? Are you here today as well?"

Although Principal Tian was the grandfather of the top student Tian Ye, he usually avoided the parent-teacher meetings in previous years to prevent any appearance of bias, leaving Tian Ye’s mother to attend them.

Today was indeed a rarity.

But could it be that Principal Tian... had gone into the wrong classroom?

Tian Hanwen just nodded at him perfunctorily, his attention focused on the back row of the classroom, his brows furrowed.

Why was it Mr. Jiang again?

He had thought it would be the elder brother’s family showing up.

Zou Wu noticed two boxes of Da Hong Pao tea leaves in his hand, with packaging so elaborate it exuded an air of attempting to ’bribe.’

Zou Wu was quite astonished, Principal Tian was known for his integrity, so what was he doing with these two boxes?

"Principal Tian, who are those for?"

Tian Hanwen looked down at the items in his hand, his expression resolute: "They’re for no one, I plan to take them back home later."

Since it was Mr. Jiang who had come, he had no intention of giving them away.

Gradually, parents began to leave the classrooms, and the students who had been gathered at the class door were led away, making the corridors lively.

Tang Shiji did not see his granddaughter.

Zou Wu had just found his own mother, who was dressed flamboyantly: "Grandpa Tang, Jiao is walking around the playground area with Ye."

Tang Shiji nodded with a smile. It was good to be close to a master and learn some skills, benefiting from the influence through association. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

He looked around the room and immediately recognized Principal Tian, who was preparing to leave.

Back in the day, his granddaughter had barely made it into First Middle School with the last qualifying score, and during the freshman orientation, he had spoken with Principal Tian.

At first, Tian Hanwen simply felt that Tang Shiji had a noble and upright bearing but hadn’t recognized who he was, since too many parents had come to speak with him over the years.

However, during a casual conversation, when he mentioned that his family ran a Swordsmanship Hall, Tian Hanwen began to remember.

It was because he recalled that his eldest son was also quite interested in swordsmanship.

Moreover, his eldest had once said that he had taken a Hall Master from a Swordsmanship Hall as a disciple.

The name of that Swordsmanship Hall was...

Tian Hanwen asked Tang Shiji: "Brother Tang, do you know of a Swordsmanship Hall, I believe it was called Hongwu Swordsmanship Hall? I remember it was quite famous back then."

Tang Shiji hesitated for a moment: "Principal Tian, did you meet them about forty or fifty years ago?"

"Yes, yes, do you know of it?" Tian Hanwen’s tone was one of pleasant surprise.

Tang Shiji smiled and nodded: "If I’m not mistaken, the Hall you’re talking about is the beloved Aihua Swordsmanship Hall of my household, which changed its name 40 years ago."

Back then, there was a wave of people going abroad, and many talents chose to develop their careers overseas. In a fit of pique, Tang Shiji simply changed the name of the Swordsmanship Hall.

Tian Hanwen’s face changed as he sized up Tang Shiji, who appeared to be more than a decade older than himself.

He asked: "That Brother Tang... do you happen to have had an exceptional female master?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Shiji froze: "Principal Tian also knows of the master?"

The master?

Tian Hanwen looked enlightened, quickly scanning the back row of the classroom where Xia Ye was, wondering if Tang Shiji was aware that ’she’ had already returned.

For the moment, he didn’t bring it up, instead reminiscing with him.

Tian Hanwen gazed out the window, a deep emotion slowly brewing in his eyes: "Of course I know of her. When I was young, I was often targeted by villains, and every time it was she who came to my aid. Without her, the Tian you see before you... would not exist."

Tang Shiji was touched by his words, recalling the past himself.

A look of emotion crossed his face.

But midway through his sentimentality, his expression suddenly paused.

Wait, what had Principal Tian just said?

He mentioned that he was always rescued by the master whenever he was bullied?

Recalling the time he had wanted to invite the master home for a meal, Tang Shiji’s eyes narrowed: "Principal Tian... was there a time you encountered trouble with villains, precisely at dawn, when it was barely light out?"

Tian Hanwen pondered why he was asking this, then earnestly reflected: "Yes, yes, there was! That time, I was surrounded by seven or eight thugs at a deserted alley entrance, and I thought I was a goner. Then she appeared as if from nowhere, I didn’t even see where she came from. That scene was..."

Lost in his narrative, he was oblivious to the increasingly resentful gaze of the man opposite him.

Tang Shiji’s eyes squinted into a thin line, as he realized the very person who caused him to miss the critical chance to meet the master was none other than Principal Tian!!!
