As soon as the class bell rang, the new teacher walked into the classroom in high-heeled shoes.
Looking at the new teacher on the platform, Evelyn turned to Elizabeth and said, "Oh my, I thought that they were just talking about her casually in the dormitory, but... Our new teacher is only in her early twenties, right? She's so young and beautiful! She's a goddess! If I were a man, I would definitely chase after her!"
Elizabeth sat there in a daze. Looking at the new teacher on the platform, she only felt surprised.
She... actually came to their school to be a teacher?
The new teacher put down her textbook and looked around with a smile. Then she looked at Elizabeth who was in a daze and smiled at her before saying, "Hello, everyone. I'm Zena Meng. From this semester on, I'm your design teacher."
That was right! The person who stood on the platform surprised Elizabeth, and introduced herself to everyone with a smile was Zena!
She wore a light- blue bohemian- style long dress with chestnut- colored long curly hair hanging casually on her back, and the make-up on her face was delicate. She looked like a goddess.
"Miss Meng, where did you go to school before?"
"Miss. Meng, your skin looks great!"
"Miss Meng, I feel that you're so gentle." After Zena introduced herself, quite a few people flattered her. For a moment, everyone was discussing and the atmosphere was very lively.
Evelyn turned her head and whispered to Elizabeth, "Hey, has this new teacher inquired about the situation of our class? She knew that you're a top-A student, so she smiled at you just now?" Saying this, she snorted a little jealously, "She didn't smile at me."
Elizabeth replied, "Actually, she's the fiancee of James's cousin and I've met her a few times. However, don't tell others about this. I don't want them to think too much."
"Oh! You two are really fated! It seems that you can still get your diploma even if you don't come to her classes this semester."
"What are you talking about?"
As they were talking, Zena suddenly said on the platform, "Actually, I am your senior, and I graduated a few years earlier than you. I am an easy-going person, but you can't bully me just because I am your senior. Otherwise, I will bully you on your credits."
Hearing her joke, the students burst into laughter again.
In this class, Zena seemed to want to close her relationship with students. She was not in a hurry to give lessons. Instead, she talked about her experiences, knowledge, and some interesting things she had encountered, which livened up the atmosphere in the class. Only Elizabeth didn't speak. She was no more surprised and shocked but felt happy. She had a good impression of Zena. Besides, Zena was Xavier's fiancee, so she didn't feel embarrassed to be her student. On the contrary, she thought that they were fated, just like what Evelyn had said.
Time passed by very quickly in the relaxing atmosphere of learning.
Students left one after another, and Elizabeth and Evelyn walked slowly behind them.
"Elizabeth!" Zena stopped Elizabeth.
Elizabeth turned back and said with a smile, "Zena, oh, no, I should call you Miss Meng now."
However, Zena smiled, "You can call me Miss Meng in class, but you'd better call me Zena in private. Otherwise, you're treating me as an outsider."
