Josh also thought this goal was nearly impossible to achieve. Seeing Brynn about to leave, he quickly called out
“Mrs. Johnson, a month feels too short. Could you give us more time?”
Brynn, who had just walked out of the classroom door, stopped. She sighed softly, then turned to look at Josh Josh suddenly felt a little guilty being stared at like this by Brynn.
He was afraid Brynn would misunderstand that they didn’t want to learn, so he quickly explained. “Mrs Johnson, it’s not that we don’t want to learn. Mastering all this in a month is incredibly hard”
The other students in the class nodded their heads in agreement.
“I memorized all of this in just half a month. If you can’t do it, then don’t be my students.”
After saying this, Brynn glanced at the students and then left decisively.
She didn’t want to be so harsh, but she believed in tough love. Being too lenient would only spoil them.
Though Brynn had come to this school to investigate her master’s death, she took her role as a teacher seriously. If I’m their teacher. I have to guide them properly, she thought
After Brynn left, the students looked bewildered.
“Half a month to memorize four books. Is Mrs. Johnson even human?” One student muttered. The person sitting next to him gave him an exasperated nudge.
“What are you talking about? Of course, she’s human. She’s amazing! No wonder her medical skills are so superb”
“As her students, we can’t disappoint her. It’s just memorizing. We can do it”
The students began to rally themselves, their spirits reigniting. We’ll definitely finish memorizing these books in a month they thought collectively.
Mear hile, Josh sat quietly, his face heavy with disappointment. After today’s incident, he had started to admire Brynn deeply.
But now, he realized just how far he was from her level.
“Hey, what’s on your mind?” Jeffrey’s teasing voice broke the silence. Josh looked up, annoyed, as Jeffrey leaned closer.
Seeing Josh’s dejected expression, Jeffrey smirked knowingly. Josh, are you secretly crushing on Mrs. Johnson? Do you feel like you’re not good enough for her?”
What nonsense is this? Josh thought. That’s not even close to what I’m thinking”
Before Josh could explain, Jeffrey cut him off again. “Don’t be sad, dude. Liking Mrs. Johnson isn’t something to be ashamed of. She’s so accomplished–it’s natural to admire her! And hey, age–gap romances are trendy these days”
The comer of Josh’s mouth twitched slightly. This was getting more and more ridiculous. “No, I don’t-
“Oh, you don’t need to explain.” Jeffrey interrupted, throwing an arm around Josh’s neck. “I get it. We’re practically brothers now after all this banter.”
Jeffrey’s words came rapid–fire, leaving no room for Josh to speak. “You may be abit behind on theory, but your practical skills seem solid. As for me, I’m great at theory! Together, we’re unstoppable. We’ll definitely finish the task in a month!”

These words were serious, and Josh couldn’t help but nod “Yes, I believe we can do it”
“That’s right. This way, Mrs. Johnson will think highly of you and her affection for you will increase rapidly.”
Jeffrey nodded in satisfaction, then patted Josh on the shoulder again. “Come on, bro. Go for your love
1 I really don’t like her like that, Josh thought helplessly.
But Jeffrey had already left the classroom with his buddies, not giving Josh a chance to explain at all.
