Did the PE Teacher Really Teach Math?

[Blurb saved on 3.22]

At Jingcheng No. 1 High School, there are two twin stars famous throughout the education world.

Lu Mufeng, homeroom teacher of the top class, wears gold-rimmed glasses and is as unsmiling and cold as an iceberg. He teaches math... and PE.

Qin Yihan, head of the Chinese department, is devastatingly handsome in a white shirt and a warm smile. He also happens to teach... music.

They're capable, handsome, and have never been in a relationship, so they're never short of admirers.

But there's something everyone only dares to say in private, and no one would ever let them hear: "Qin Yihan and Lu Mufeng are the ones who belong together."

Because everyone knows Lu Mufeng and Qin Yihan are like flint and steel, and don't get along at all.

Lu Mufeng stands at the podium, one hand resting on a set square, and lectures his students in a cool voice.

"Math requires rational thinking. Don't learn to be so unrestrained from certain carefree rich kids. You're still in high school. It's too early for that."

He also announces amid his students' groans, "The music teacher is taking the afternoon off. We'll have math instead."

Then, without changing expression, he walks past Qin Yihan, the so-called "music teacher taking the afternoon off," who's waiting at the door to teach the next Chinese class.

When Qin Yihan sees students whose essays are always off-topic and lack any sense of beauty, he can only sigh and rub his forehead.

"You've all suffered. The iceberg has frozen your brains into emotionless machines."

"You need to think more emotionally in Chinese class. Get rid of all those boring, rigid numbers."

"By the way, do you calculate the routes you run in PE with trigonometric functions?"

Then he looks toward the corridor and raises an eyebrow at Lu Mufeng, the so-called "PE teacher who teaches math," who's come to check on classroom discipline. His expression and tone are full of provocation.

From the school administrators to their colleagues and students, everyone is obsessed with the pair, but the whole school, from staff to students, keeps quiet. Not one person dares to say a word.

Until one New Year's Eve celebration, when someone backstage comes across two tall figures standing almost on top of each other.

Qin Yihan pins Lu Mufeng in a corner, his gaze lowered to the man in his arms, who is glaring at him with his neck stiffly raised.

"The music teacher got dizzy while drinking water, so all music classes are going to be replaced with PE from now on?" Remembering that flimsy excuse, Qin Yihan can barely keep from laughing.

He leans closer, a wicked smile curling his lips as he speaks beside Lu Mufeng's ear. "Then tell me, PE teacher, would you like to test my stamina?"
