Playfully a dehcate young gul plucked a strand of her long hair and pressed it against the wall behind her, testing & dangle freely. In the next moment, a needle suddenly shot through the air, slicing the hair
What on earth…”
As university students, can’t you use any other words to express your surprise? Besides ‘what on earth“?”
Emrys pretended to be frustrated and remarked, instantly triggering waves of laughter within the classroom. This teacher was truly adorable.
Clearly, Einrys had a firm grasp on their attention, understanding their skepticism. He knew that no matter how cloquently he spoke, it would be difficult to gain their approval. Given this, he decided to put on a spectacular performance!
After all, Emrys was also part of this age group and understood their mindset too well,
Indeed, after these few needles were shot out, more than ninety–nine percent of the students forgot that they were forced to come here for a lecture and grew excited.
A few pretty girls stood up and imitated the previous girl by pulling out a long strand of their hair. With faces full of anticipation, they exclaimed, “Mr. Lund, look here. Use your needle to shoot me!”
They were truly too excited, eagerly requesting to be shot.
However, Emrys coughed lightly and said, “Ladies, please restrain yourselves. I am a respectable teacher.
The girls who had stood up were momentarily taken aback, only then realizing the ambiguity of what they had just said. Their cheeks flushed red, and they quickly sat back down.
How did Mr. Lund manage to say something so serious with a teasing tone?
In extraordinary circumstances, one must employ unconventional strategies to succeed!
Emrys skillfully played his hand, successfully dispelling the dissatisfaction among the students and making them feel that the time spent this evening was worthwhile. Naturally, their resentment also faded away.
But there were always one or two exceptions.
Take Spike, for example. Perhaps he enjoyed being in the spotlight too much. Seeing everyone showing admiration for Emrys, he suddenly felt uncomfortable. He loudly snorted and said, “What nonsense is this? Are you here to talk about traditional medicine, or are you here to perform acrobatics? If it’s the latter, I think you should join the circus instead of coming here and bringing a negative influence to our university!”
His voice was loud, and after he shouted, the entire classroom fell silent once again.
It was like a group of people singing pop songs in a karaoke, and then someone started singing a heartbreaking song. Wasn’t that a mood killer?
“Please clarify, How did Mr. Lund bring a negative influence to our university?” A student spoke up Emrys.
Several students wanted to argue in favor of Emrys, but at that moment, they heard Emrys speak up. “Students, let me say something.”
Emrys pointed at Spike. Kid, you seem to think you have a strong sense of justice. Let me show you how I handle this.
