My Beloved
Chapter 87 - TO THE TEACHERS' ROOM

When Mo Yuan took Han Luo's hand, the girls around them gasped. "O M G! Yuan took her hand!"

"They seem close."

"How close are they?"

"I never thought Yuan would take a girl's hand."

"Maybe they're going out…"

"Really?!"

"Lucky her!"

Tang Yujin smiled at the girls in a friendly manner and then looked at Han Luo. "Why don't we go inside? The breeze is pretty chilly today."

Han Luo nodded. "Sounds fair."

The boys took her inside like a princess while everyone turned to look at her in envy. Han Luo found it weird and was quite uncomfortable. She suddenly asked, "Why don't I go alone?"

"Why do you want to go alone?" Han Sheng Ming asked. He acted as though nothing bothered him. He was close to the boys and they called him when they saw him. He replied to them before Han Luo continued, "Can't you see everyone is looking at us?" She didn't like it when she got too much attention.

"Don't worry about it." Tang Yujin smiled helplessly. He was embarrassed too. "Sorry to make your first day at a foreign school like this."

Han Luo immediately retorted, "Oh no, it's not your fault. But I never imagined you guys to be so popular in a foreign country…"

"We will come to meet you at lunchtime," Mo Yuan said, while not directly responding to Han Luo's remark. He brushed off all the gazes; he was used to this, just like how his friends were used to this.

Han Luo denied, "Don't do that. Today is the first day so I want to talk to all the students, and I want to know them."

"Of course, you should do that," Tang Yujin replied before Mo Yuan could say otherwise.

They then took her to the staff room and introduced her to the form tutor who was assigned to her class. Tang Yujin greeted him, "Good morning, Mr. Levine. How are you doing?" The others greeted him as well.

Mr. Archie Levine was working. He was a man around fifty and was half American, half Spanish. His dirty blonde hair seemed to be turning grey, and age lines were clearly visible on his face. He raised his head to look at them. His sharp eyes gazed at them and replied in a gloomy tone, "Morning, Yujin, I'm doing great. Thank you for asking. How are you all?"

"We are doing fine," they replied. Han Sheng Ming added, "Mr. Levine, I brought my little sister with me. She is in your class."

Mr. Archie Levine looked at her. "Yes, I can see her. Hello there, it's Luo Han, isn't it? Did I pronounce your name properly?"

Han Luo was nervous seeing such a gloomy form tutor, but she got over it and answered, "Hello, Mr. Levine, yes you did. Thank you."

Mr. Archie Levine nodded his head. "You must be excited after coming here for the first time." He took a file and opened it. There was information about Han Luo.

Han Luo smiled and replied, "I'm very excited and this is the second time I came here. I came here a week ago to see the school. I was impatient and couldn't control my curiosity."

Mr. Archie Levine read her profile while asking, "Oh I see, splendid! Did you look around?"

"I did." Han Luo didn't answer more than necessary. She felt like she was being interviewed.

He asked, "What do you think of this school?"

She replied without hesitation, "I think it's a wonderful environment. Can't wait to meet everyone in my class and other teachers as well…" She nervously gazed at Mo Yuan who was easy to locate without moving her head. He calmly nodded to ease her.

Mr. Archie Levine nodded and closed the file. He looked at her and commented, "You are very optimistic. I like it. I've seen your academic results and I'm impressed. I'm happy to have you in my class. I'll also be your maths teacher."

"I'll be in your care from now on," Han Luo said. She was relieved that the interrogation was finally over.

"Archie, could you give me the file the headteacher gave you this morning?" A woman in a blue pencil skirt and a white shirt came forward. Her brown wavy hair was on her shoulder. Her blue eyes were attractive and could easily draw people to them. She had some makeup on, enhancing her gorgeous features.

Mr. Archie Levine agreed, "Yes, sure."

Tang Yujin greeted her first. "Good morning Ms. Moore, how are you doing?"

Ms. Emily Moore finally looked at the boys and smiled charmingly. "Hello there, isn't that Yujin. Yuan and Sheng are also here. What's the occasion? Oh, who is this young lady?"

Han Sheng Ming introduced her to Han Luo, "This is my little sister Luo Han. She will study here starting from today. She is in Mr. Levine's form."

Han Luo smiled at her. "Hello, Ms. Moore, hope you are doing well."

Ms. Emily Moore was friendly. She looked at Han Luo and introduced herself. "Hello Luo, I'm Ms. Moore. It a pleasure to meet you."

"The pleasure is mine." Han Luo shook hands with her with great pleasure.

Ms. Emily Moore sat on Mr. Archie Levine's table and said, "Since you are in Levine's form class, I guess that means you are in year 9?"

"Yes." Han Luo nodded.

Ms. Emily Moore was delighted. "Great! Well, I'm actually your English teacher. Right now, we're focusing on the English Literature side. I'm looking forward to teaching you."

"I love literature. Please guide me well." Han Luo got along with her.

Mr. Archie Levine spoke, "Moore, here is the file."

"Thanks, Archie!" Ms. Emily Moore gave him a flying kiss and gave Han Luo a wink before leaving. Her pencil heels echoed in the hallway as she walked away.

Han Luo giggled at her action. She had never seen such an interesting teacher.. She thought if teachers like them were in every school, the lives of the students would be better.
