Chapter 376: University Teaching Assistant Lin Mo - I Became the Rich Second-Generation Villain

Two quick footsteps echoed from the hallway outside.

Liu Yue and the female teaching assistant from earlier stepped into the office together.

“Is Lin Mo… not breathing?”

Liu Yue walked in with a tense look on her face, but when she saw the upright figure sitting there, she couldn’t help letting out a small smile as she turned to the assistant beside her.

The young woman froze in place and blinked. “I… I checked for his breath just now. I really thought he… I’m sorry, Professor Liu. I must’ve been mistaken.”

“It’s fine. As long as he’s okay.” Realizing it was a false alarm, Liu Yue didn’t place any blame.

After all, the assistant was only worried.

While the two were speaking, Lin Mo studied them quietly—or more precisely, his gaze stayed mostly on Liu Yue.

After absorbing the memories of the original Lin Mo, he now fully understood everything. This beautiful woman, who was somehow younger than him and only in her early twenties, was a professor in the finance department.

Both he and the female assistant were graduate students under her supervision.

He also served as her teaching assistant, helping with lesson preparation and organizing classroom materials.

The original Lin Mo had been clumsy and not good with words. Deep down, he had admired Liu Yue for a long time, though he never dared say anything. He knew he wasn’t worthy and could only bury those feelings.

That obsession, that yearning the original left behind—it was now his.

Rest in peace, brother. Your goddess Liu Yue, I’ll chase her and make her mine.

With the help of his system, Lin Mo brimmed with self-confidence as that vow took shape silently in his heart.

He also remembered something else—the original Lin Mo knew Liu Yue had a boyfriend. Not long ago, someone had sent her a huge bouquet of roses, which caused quite a stir among the finance students.

But things like that weren’t a problem. As long as the pickaxe swings in the right spot, no wall is unbreakable.

Now that he had the Super Teacher System, anything was possible.

Besides, Liu Yue wasn’t the only woman who caught his attention. Lin Mo clearly remembered from the memories that Qingling University had plenty of beauties.

Among the first-year students alone, there were already three campus belles. Among the professors, aside from Liu Yue, the goddess, there were two more—and they were actually her sisters.

His vision for the future was bright and full of possibilities.

“Don’t stay up too late again. Studying is important, but your health is even more so.” Liu Yue seemed genuinely relieved now that Lin Mo looked alright, and she offered him advice out of concern for her student.

After all, this Lin Mo often stayed up late studying.

Liu Yue had never approved of that habit.

“Yes, Professor Liu. I’ll stop staying up so late,” Lin Mo replied with a sincere tone.

Liu Yue looked at him, surprised.

Because in the past, whenever she said something like this, Lin Mo would always respond in a dull voice, saying things like:

I’m not as smart as others, so I need to put in more time to keep up.

But right as her surprise showed on her face, Lin Mo received a notification from the system.

【Ding. Host has gained +100 Approval Value】

Lin Mo smiled quietly to himself.

He answered like that on purpose.

His Super Teacher System awarded him approval points when others recognized or acknowledged him.

And those points could be exchanged for all kinds of skills and abilities.

“You’re willing to listen to advice. That’s good,” Liu Yue said with a look of approval.

“Professor Liu, I’ve been helping with lesson prep for a while now. Would you be willing to let me try giving a lecture to the students, just to get used to it?”

If he wanted to earn more approval points, the best way was to teach students directly.

Liu Yue thought about it for a moment.

A teaching assistant’s job was to support classroom instruction. And normally, after at least a year of experience, assistants could apply to become university lecturers.

Teaching practice was something they’d need eventually anyway.

“Write me a teaching plan. If I think it’s good enough, I’ll let you give it a try in class.”

She wanted to give Lin Mo a chance to grow while still being responsible toward the students.

“Alright, Professor Liu. I’ll write one right away.” Lin Mo’s voice carried a rush of excitement.

This office was shared by Lin Mo and the female assistant. Liu Yue’s office was located elsewhere.

She had other matters to handle and left the room soon after giving him her reply.

Lin Mo opened the system interface and used the approval points he started with, plus the ones he’d just earned, to redeem a complete set of financial theory knowledge.

With this kind of content under his belt, giving a lecture to finance students wouldn’t be an issue at all.

He opened his notebook and quickly started drafting a lesson plan.

Not long after, the plan was finished.

Lin Mo got up, took the document with him, and headed out to show it to Liu Yue.

It was between classes now.

Wang Haoran stepped out of the classroom for some fresh air. As he walked toward the stairwell, someone came chasing after him.

“You’re treating me to barbecue tonight,” Mu Zhaozhao said, tapping his shoulder from behind before hopping in front of him.

“Sure, I’ll pay. But I’ve got something tonight, so I won’t go with you,” Wang Haoran replied.

She often dragged him off to barbecue, so he was used to it.

Before, he always agreed without a second thought.

But things were different now. He was with Yu Shiqing.

If they ran into each other at the barbecue place and Yu Shiqing got a little too flirty, Zhaozhao might pick up on it and run straight to Qin Yunhan to tattle. That wouldn’t end well.

“You used to say that I could ask you anytime and you’d go. Now you’re backing out?” Zhaozhao said, clearly annoyed.

“I really do have something going on tonight,” Wang Haoran replied vaguely.

“Like what? Say it,” she pressed.

“Qin Yunhan asked me to the movies.”

He made it up on the spot.

“Oh, really? Then I’ll call Sister Yunhan and check,” Zhaozhao said as she pulled out her phone.

“Wait—” Wang Haoran quickly reached out to stop her.

“Knew it. You’re lying.” Zhaozhao stared him down with a knowing smile and then added, “So, are you coming or not? Because if you don’t, I might just scream molestation.”

Wang Haoran was stunned by her wild logic and let out a helpless laugh. “Don’t mess around.”

“Are you coming or not?”

“No.”

“Help! Molester!” Zhaozhao looked around, saw no one, and suddenly shouted.

Startled, Wang Haoran instinctively pinned her against the wall and clamped a hand over her mouth. “You really shouted?”

“Mmm mmm mmm—” With her mouth covered, Zhaozhao mumbled something he couldn’t understand.

But from the look in her eyes, Wang Haoran could tell she was still threatening him. She was probably repeating the same warning—go to the barbecue or she’d keep screaming about harassment.

“Let go of that girl!”

Lin Mo was passing nearby, holding his teaching plan, when he heard the commotion. He immediately walked over and saw a guy holding a girl against the wall and covering her mouth.

Without hesitation, he barked out a warning.

Wang Haoran saw him and figured he was a teacher. Not wanting to stir up trouble, he let go of Zhaozhao and stepped aside. “You explain.”

Zhaozhao hadn’t meant to cause problems for Wang Haoran. She quickly turned to Lin Mo, who looked like a teacher, and gave an awkward laugh.

“Hi, teacher. It was a misunderstanding. I was just yelling nonsense. Totally my fault.”
