Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lu Ning could not help but laugh. “I doubt that. Mommy told me that Second
Brother has a strange temper. He might simply ignore me.”
Lin Ci raised her eyebrows. “Why would you be happy if he ignores you?”
Lu Ning smiled. “Why wouldn’t I? Isn’t that really cool?”
Lin Ci: ‘ I don’t understand you anymore.”
Lu Ning grinned and walked into the school building with her.
Huo Jinyan sat in the car as he looked at Lu Nings back. Wordlessly, he prepared to open the car door.
Chu Ting, in the driver’s seat, suddenly spoke up, “President Huo, should we wait for you to finish this semester before we return?”
Huo Jinyan’s hand suddenly stopped, his entire body frozen.
Chu Ting also looked towards the school. Lu Ning and Lin Ci had just walked into the building.
“Didn’t you say we can’t find Z?”
Huo Jinyan remained silent.
He did not tell anyone that Z was Lu Jingzhi. In order to protect Lu Jingzhi, he simply said that Z could no longer be found.
“Should we be looking for him elsewhere?”
Huo Jinyan finally said, “We’re not looking anymore.”
Chu Ting turned around in surprise. “We’re not looking anymore? Then are we going back to the capital? Old Master called me again not long ago.”
Huo Jinyan’s temples throbbed as he listened to him.
Chu Ting did not notice that Huo Jinyan’s expression had changed at all and continued, “The capital really needs you to go back and take charge of the situation. Anyway, if we’re not looking for Z anymore then our mission is over, so there’s no need to stay in A City for long, right, President Huo?”
Huo Jinyan had a feeling that he was saying this on purpose.
Huo Jinyan opened the car door and said coldly, “If you don’t want to stay by my side, you can go back first or resign.”
Chu Ting: ?!
Stunned, he watched as Huo Jinyan got out and slammed the door shut.
Then, he looked on as Huo Jinyan walked through the school gate.
After Huo Jinyan walked in, Chu Ting suddenly smiled.
He muttered to himself, “Interesting. It’s quite fun to mess with President Huo when he’s angry, but I almost dragged myself into trouble.”
Chu Ting smiled as he took out his phone.
“Isn’t it just for Miss Lu? President Huo really isn’t honest with himself.”
When Huo Jinyan walked up, he happened to see Lu Ning and Lin Ci enter the cla.s.sroom.
He stopped in his tracks and sighed slightly.
Cla.s.s 9 was in an uproar.
Lu Ning walked in with the trophy in hand. When they spotted the trophy, everyone was overjoyed.
“Sister Ning! Is this the NI trophy? Holy, it’s huge!’
“It’s all shiny! So pretty!’
“Let’s take a photo together! Sister Ning, take a photo with us!”
Lu Ning:
Two days ago, they wanted her autographs; today, they wanted photos with her.
They*re really running me ragged, aren’t they?
However, Lu Ning still put down her things to take photos with them. “Sister Ning, don’t move. Yes, yes, stand right there.”
They placed Lu Nings trophy on the podium and had Lu Ning stand in the middle, while her cla.s.smates went up to take photos with her one by one. Lu Ning could not shake off the feeling of being like a tourist attraction.
Lin Ci sat at her desk and looked at Lu Ning, laughing so hard that she was rocking back and forth. She even took a photo and posted it on her WeChat Moments. The caption read: [Forced to open for business.]
In just a few minutes, there were hundreds of likes.
All this merriment ended the moment Huo Jinyan entered the cla.s.sroom.
When everyone saw Huo Jinyan, they subconsciously ran to their seats, leaving Lu Ning in front of the podium.
When Lu Ning noticed that everyone had scurried away, she turned around and saw Huo Jinyan.
Then, she turned back and slowly went to her seat.
Huo Jinyan looked at her and hesitated.. Actually, he wanted to call her back to take a photo with him—he also wanted to partic.i.p.ate in all her special moments…
