The car arrived at the entrance of the Huo family’s mansion quickly. Mo Zhu had already woken up and was looking out the window aimlessly.
After Huo Xuan opened the door and got out of the car, he went straight to the other side and opened the car door for the girl. Seeing that Mo Zhu was still in a daze, he gently raised his hand and ruffled her hair. He said, “Xiao Zhu, we’re home. It’s time to get out of the car.”
When Mo Zhu heard this, she turned her gaze to the man. She seemed to have thought of something and replied with a slight frown, “What day is it today? If it’s not a weekend tomorrow, arrange for me to go to school for lessons.”
Just as she finished speaking, Xu Huan, who had gotten out of the driver’s seat, started chattering, “Little Bamboo, so much has happened in the past two days, and you just came back from Qingyuan Village after a long journey. Do you really not need to rest for a few more days?”
Mo Zhu shook her head lightly and pinched the space between her eyebrows. She replied indifferently, “It’s alright, it’s good to go to class early.”
Seeing that he couldn’t stop Mo Zhu, Huo Xuan could only agree. “Alright, it’s Monday tomorrow. I’ll send you to school.”
After saying this, Mo Zhu looked up at Huo Xuan and got out of the car before entering the Huo residence.
The next morning.
Mo Zhu woke up early and went to the dining table to eat breakfast with Huo Xuan. After dinner, Uncle Zhang drove Mo Zhu to school before sending Huo Xuan to the company.
The car stopped at the entrance of Jingyang High School. Mo Zhu looked at the school’s huge school gate through the translucent car window in a daze. Then, she opened the car door skillfully and walked towards the classroom.
Just as she entered the first floor of the school building, some students of the same grade saw Mo Zhu’s figure. Then, rustling conversation came from the crowd not far away.
“Is this Mo Zhu from Class Eight? Didn’t she take a long leave previously? She’s back for class today?”
Then, another voice sounded. “Mo Zhu is really back. I saw her in the Physics Department previously. She’s Mo Zhu from Class Eight.”
“That’s great, that’s great. She’s finally back. If Mo Zhu doesn’t return, not only will Class Eight be unlucky, but our classes will also be implicated!”
When Mo Zhu heard these people’s whispers, she frowned slightly. She raised her hand and zipped her coat to her collar. She chose to ignore the surrounding crowd’s gazes and walked straight to Class Eight.
After walking into Class Eight, Mo Zhu returned to her seat as if nothing had happened. After calmly sitting down, she laid on the table and started sleeping the entire day.
Seeing that Mo Zhu had returned to class, the students of Class Eight were very excited and very happy. However, because they had heard about Grandma Zhang and Mo Zhu’s aura when she entered the classroom just now was too cold and too strong, everyone looked at each other. No one dared to take the initiative to talk to Mo Zhu.
A few minutes later, Mo Zhu raised her head and looked at the empty seat beside her. She frowned in confusion.
In the past, as long as there were classes, Meng Ran would always be the first few to arrive in class. She was never late. Why was she not here today?
Li Shen, who was sitting behind Mo Zhu and Meng Ran, came in from the back door at this moment and sat in his seat, preparing for class.
Li Shen sat down and took out his textbook. He looked up and saw Mo Zhu coming to the classroom. His eyes suddenly lit up. He was about to go forward and talk to Mo Zhu, but for some reason, Li Shen lowered his head slightly. He didn’t get up from his seat even when the bell rang.
Without Meng Ran by her side, the students of Class Eight did not dare to take the initiative to wake up the sleeping Mo Zhu. Mo Zhu slept until lunchtime from the first lesson in the morning.
She opened her sleepy eyes and stretched lazily. Out of habit, she wanted to ask Meng Ran to go to the dining room to get some food. However, when she turned around, she realized that there was no one in the girl’s seat for the entire morning.
Mo Zhu frowned and looked up at Zhang Qi’s seat at the front table.. The strange thing was that Zhang Qi’s table was as clean as Meng Ran’s.
