Unfortunate Hero's Retirement Life

Chapter 20: Love Rival?! Or Not...?!

It took a whole two hours before the children's curiosity subsided. Yes, in the last two hours, the children asked Heero many questions. Especially, when he said he came from the outside city. The children swarmed around Heero and asked him what the outside looked like.

Zombies, the mutated beast, the wild base, the plant. The children asked everything they had in their mind. Heero finally experienced how scary the children's curiosity.

Even Teacher Hong Yu did not plan to help him or stop the children. She also put her ears to hear Heero's answer. It was normal even for an adult like Teacher Hong Yu curious about outside as she never left the city before.

There were a few an exception though. The special children seemed to be aloof. Shen Miao and her two friends stayed in their seat. The same for Jiang Yujin and his four friends. As for Kang Myung Hee, she was just sitting in her seat and gazed outside the window, alone.

After the QnA between the children and Heero finished, Teacher Hong Yu took over the class again.

After Heero introduction, it was supposed to be storytelling, Teacher Hong Yu would tell the unfinished story from yesterday to the children. But it was supposed to be a brief introduction, becoming a "long introduction".

The plan was telling the children a story for an hour and the next hours would be the children to play freely until lunch. However, the plan changed, but no children complained.

Teacher Hong Yu started to continue the unfinished a tale story, Cinderella. The same as before, the three special kids seemed did not have an interest in the story.

They just did what they wanted to do while Kang Myung Hee dazedly looked toward the window. She looked lonely and her gaze was vacant.

Heero heeded Teacher Hong Yu's advice, just let the special kids be. He instead sat along with the children and attentively listened to the story.

Surprisingly, the children were calm, listening to the story peacefully. Even the mischievous Lan Lan sat quietly. The classroom filled only with Teacher Hong Yu's sweet voice.

Heero even noticed Shen Miao also secretly listened to the story. It seemed Cinderella story was very popular amongst the children.

Teacher Hong Yu continued until lunchtime. The children listened quietly until the end of the story. As soon as Teacher Hong Yu reached the end of the story, only then the children became noisy.

The children were talking about the prince. The boys said they wanted to be a prince just like the prince while the girls talked about Cinderella's dress.

"This is the first time they hear this story" Teacher Hong Yu explained to Heero.

Teacher Hong Yu loved to read a book, especially a fairy tale just like Cinderella. It turned Teacher Hong Yu found an old book in the library, the old book was telling about the Cinderella story.

Finally, Heero understood why did the children so calm and quiet as they listened to the story. This was the first time they heard about the story of Cinderella.

"Who's hungry here?" As the story was over, lunchtime arrived. Teacher Hong Yu asked the children. Being reminded by Teacher Hong Yu, the children raised their hand.

After that, Teacher Hong Yu led the children to the dining hall. Behind the building was the dining hall located. While the children were having their lunch, the teacher's duty was keeping a watch the children.

The three special children also followed. Of course, Shen Miao and Jiang Yujin were having lunch with their own group, they seemed did not want to mingle with the other children. As for Kang Myung Hee, she was always alone.

After lunch, it was an afternoon nap. The class turned into a place for the children to sleep. After making sure all the children were sleeping, then it was the teacher turn for lunch.

There were eight teachers in Hope Preschool including Heero. Most of them were at the same as Teacher Lin. There were only three young teachers and there were only two male teachers included Heero.

Despite being a new teacher, everyone was good to Heero. Heero was polite, energetic, and often smiling which gave a favorable impression to the other teachers.

An afternoon nap was supposed to be the last activity for the children. Usually, the parents would pick the children at 2 pm. After an afternoon nap, but if the parents had not picked them yet. They would wait and play with the children until their parents picked them up.

At 3 pm, there were only ten children left that had not been picked up yet. Heero saw Lan Lan amongst them. Lan Lan was still playing a doll with Man Man and the other three little girls. Teacher Hong Yu also accompanied the five girls.

As for the other five children were the group of a boy with a special child in it, Jiang Yujin. Looking at how the other four boys followed Jiang Yujin, it was like looking at a mother chick followed by the little chick.

Wherever Jiang Yujin went, the four boys followed him. As for Shen Miao, a Silver Class Hero picked her up. It was said Shen Miao was Gold Class Hero's daughter, Shen Yifan. That was why she was included in special children that received special care from the school.

As for Kang Myung Hee, she came from an influential family in the inner city. As for why Kang Myung Hee came to the school in the outer city, no one dared to question it.

The same thing applied Jiang Yujin and Shen Miao. They had a good background, but why did they come to school for an ordinary citizen. Heero believed there were many better schools than Hope Preschool in the inner city. Yet they still came here.

This was odd for the kids with a big background entered the Hope Preschool. Maybe not only Heero who thought about this but the other teachers also had the same thought. They just did not want to voice out their thoughts out. There was nothing good coming up with offending the kids with a big background.

Heero was watching the five boys. He heard the four boys were flattering Jiang Yujin. They were talking about how awesome Jiang Yujin's grandfather was.

Apparently, Jiang Yujin's Grandfather was a former Crown Class Ranker. Below only to Legendary Class Ranker while Jiang Yujin's father was Gold Class Ranker.

With such background, but Jiang Yujin came into an ordinary preschool which was odd.

The four boys were flattering Jiang Yujin while Jiang Yujin had a satisfied and a proud look as he heard the compliment. Heero wondered if they never tried to flatter Jiang Yujin.

While Heero's thought was wandering around, the door opened. An old man with white hair and a black suit entered the class. The old man did not bother to greet Heero, but he went straight to Jiang Yujin.

"Young Master, sorry, I am late. We can go back now!" White-haired Old Man respectfully called Jiang Yujin.

Jiang Yujin merely nodded his head. Afterward, the group of five boys followed White-Haired Old Man. The class only left with five little girls. Not long after Jiang Yujin left the class, three mothers entered the classroom.

Because today was his first day, Heero tried to remember the children's parents. Heero recognized these three mothers. They were the parents of three little girls who played with Lan Lan and Man Man.

The three girls left, leaving only Man Man and Lan Lan.

"Man Man, Lan Lan, do you want Teacher to walk you home? We can go home together today~"

Lan Lan and Man Man nodded their head.

"Good, wait here a moment, okay? Teacher will make a report first to the office, after that we will go back together~"

With that, Teacher Hong Yu and Heero left to the office. On the way to the office, Heero asked he was curious about.

"Do Man Man and Lan Lan mother not pick them up?"

Teacher Hong Yu shook her head, "No, Man Man and Lan Lan mother work in commerce region until night."

Actually, Lan Lan and Man Man always go home by themselves. However, at this time, there's no one in their home, so they usually stay in school until all children go back."

Heero did not know Man Man's family condition, but he understood a bit about Lan Lan's family. He heard yesterday Butcher Wang would go hunt every day while Lan Lan's mother sells the meat at Commerce Region.

Talking about this, Heero remembered yesterday, Lan Lan also went home by herself and she fell right beside him.

However, then a thought flashed in Heero's mind. After being together with Teacher Hong Yu today, he found out more about Teacher Hong Yu.

She was attentive, caring, cheerful, and had a sweet smile. Especially the dimple which appeared each time she smiled, it was especially cute. Heero found Teacher Hong Yu was a good material wife.

He retired to be Hero with another goal, to continue his family line. Heero found Teacher was a good candidate.

'However, we just meet today. Let's just take it slowly. Moreover, I am poor, I don't even have a house'

Heero fell into deep thought as they went back to the office. Teacher Lin and Teacher Xu were still in the office. Teacher Xu was about the same age as Teacher Lin. It just Teacher Xu was plump and shorter than Teacher Lin, she also humorous.

Beside Teacher Lin and Teacher Xu, there was another person. It was a young man adorned with blue suit and sunglasses, the young man appearance was neat and graceful. The young man also held a bucket of a red flower.

When Heero and Teacher Hong Yu entered the office, the young man also stood up. He strode to them, no, he was walking toward Teacher Hong Yu.

The young man offered the flower to Teacher Hong Yu and said intimately, "Hong Yu, would you like to grant my wish to have dinner with you?"

Teacher Hong Yu received the flower, but refused the young man invitation, "I'm sorry, Principal Fang. Yesterday we just have dinner together, so I can't go with you tonight. I have to help my sister at home. Moreover, I already promised the kids to go home together! I am sorry, I can't go with you."

"It seems today is not my lucky day!" Principal Fang smiled despite the rejection. He appeared to be a gentleman.

However, he frowned upon finding Heero standing beside Teacher Hong Yu.

"Who is he?"
