Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The night passed with Mo Zhu’s mind filled with thoughts.
The next morning, Huo Xuan called Mo Zhu downstairs for breakfast as usual. However, he saw that the girl looked listless. It was clear that she hadn’t slept well last night.
He couldn’t help but ask, “You didn’t sleep well last night? Where did you go? Look at your dark circles, such huge patches.”
Mo Zhu sat quietly at the dining table and glanced at Huo Xuan. Her heart was in a mess after the incident last night.
The atmosphere was a little awkward. Huo Xuan smiled good-naturedly and wasn’t angry. He scooped some porridge for Mo Zhu and said, “If you don’t want to talk, then don’t. Have some breakfast. You have to go to school in a while.”
Mo Zhu raised her hand and took the bowl of porridge from Huo Xuan. She lowered her head and quietly took a few mouthfuls. The two of them didn’t speak a word till Huo Xuan sent her to the school gate.
Even Xu Huan, who was always smiling and being chatty, sensed the weird atmosphere between the two of them today. He did not dare to joke as idly as he did in the car previously.
“Brother Huo, did you provoke Little Bamboo? Why is there something wrong with her today?”
Xu Huan waited for Mo Zhu to open the car door and get out of the car. He couldn’t help but poke Huo Xuan with his elbow. He had been suppressing his curiosity the entire journey and he had finally found an opportunity to ask.
The man moved his gaze away from the newspaper a little. “No, it’s probably because women have such ridiculous days every month…”
A cold glint flashed across Huo Xuan’s deep eyes, but when he mentioned Mo Zhu, he couldn’t help but feel a little gentle. In fact, he wasn’t too sure why Mo Zhu’s mood had changed so drastically all of a sudden, but this explanation was reasonable.
After receiving Huo Xuan’s vague hint, Xu Huan immediately believed him. He shook his head and pondered for a while, and he couldn’t help but give the man a thumbs up. “Brother Huo, you even know this! Impressive!”
In Class Eight’s classroom.
It was not yet time for class. The entire class was chattering about the exciting competition last night.
“Yesterday, I posted a video in the class group of my middle school. They were so jealous. All of them were praising how handsome the Essence Soul was!”
“It’s all thanks to Sister Mo’s tickets this time. A few days ago, my cousin even showed off the merchandise of RH battleteam to me. Yesterday, I sent her a picture of my admission ticket and she cried from anger. It felt so good, too good…”
Everyone was discussing fervently, and only Meng Ran was sitting in her seat, secretly enjoying herself.
Everyone was too superficial. They only knew the reason but not the reason why. Meng Ran was the only person who truly understood the truth.
Mo Zhu had also arrived at the classroom at that moment. She opened the door with one hand that was free from her bag. With her sharp eyes, Meng Ran saw the girl’s cool and slender figure at a glance.
“Sister Mo! Sister Mo! You’re here. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Look, look, I came to the classroom early in the morning and even tidied up your desk!”
Meng Ran raised her hand and waved it at Mo Zhu, who was by the door. She stared at the girl with her large almond-shaped eyes, and there was an indescribable excitement and enthusiasm in her eyes.
“Yes, it’s been hard on you.”
Mo Zhu walked to her seat casually and placed the backpack she was carrying on the table before she nodded at Meng Ran.
“Sister Mo is here, Sister Mo is here!”
At this moment, the surrounding students also noticed that Mo Zhu had come to the classroom. All of them raised their heads to greet her. The noisy environment made Mo Zhu a little uncomfortable.
“There are still a few minutes before class starts. I’ll go and wash my hands first.” Mo Zhu patted Meng Ran’s hand.
Although she said that she was going to wash her hands, she just wanted to get some fresh air outside the classroom. Just as Mo Zhu stood up, Meng Ran followed her. “Sister Mo, Sister Mo, wait for me. I’ll go with you!”
The two of them walked slowly along the long corridor. Meng Ran was chattering and when she wanted to say more, she was suddenly glared at by Mo Zhu. She then stuck out her tongue and swallowed back her words.
It’s fine if she didn’t get to say it, but she couldn’t anger Sister Mo, the true boss!
Just as the two of them reached the door of the female toilet at the end of the corridor, a sudden discordant voice came from the storage room next door.
Mo Zhu had sharp ears. When she heard this, she stopped in her tracks and raised her eyebrows at Meng Ran. “There’s movement inside. Should we go and take a look?”
Meng Ran was also very smart. She instantly understood the meaning behind Mo Zhu’s words. She quickly walked two steps to the door of the storage room and the girl directly placed her ear on the door.
Intermittent voices came from the door.
“With just you? Why don’t you look in the mirror and see what kind of person you are? How dare you seduce Brother Zheng? It seems like you don’t take my warnings to heart at all. If I don’t teach you a lesson today, you won’t know your place!”
The cold female voice sounded exasperated. Meng Ran turned around and gave Mo Zhu a look. The two of them understood that the situation inside should be romance related.
Mo Zhu had always been the kind of person who would ignore matters that did not concern her. Since she had nothing to do with it, she was naturally unwilling to get involved.. She gently rolled up her sleeves, turned on the tap in the bathroom, and prepared to wash her hands briefly before asking Meng Ran to return to the classroom with her.
