Song s.h.i.+jun cursed in a low voice, “F*ck! Didn’t this guy go to the capital? Why is he back again!”
Yin Shaojie asked him, “Are you two rivals?”
“There’s more to it than that!” Song s.h.i.+jun said huffily. “Before I met you, he was ‘that parent’s kid’. All the elders kept comparing me to him and it was so annoying!”
Even though he knew Ning Ruyan since his childhood, they didn’t interact much. They had a superficial relations.h.i.+p and the most they did was nod at each other in greeting.
Ning Ruyan was a smart student with good grades and loved by the elders, while in contrast Song s.h.i.+jun was a little more mischievous. Thus, it was natural the elders kept nagging at him to learn from Ning Ruyan.
Song s.h.i.+jun stared at the photograph, frowned, and asked, “This Jun Zeye dude actually knows Ning Ruyan. Who is he?”
Yin Shaojie’s gaze sank a little. His long fingers tapped the table lightly as he thought.
No matter whether Jun Zeye was a friend for foe, it was a must to find out who he was.
…
The afternoon recess ended.
There was a continuous stream of students coming back to school and entering their cla.s.srooms.
On a tree, Jun Zeye opened his eyes. Glancing at his surroundings, he then jumped off a few branches and landed nimbly on the ground.
Just as he was about to walk to cla.s.s, his phone rang.
“h.e.l.lo.”
It was Ning Ruyan calling.
“KO indeed isn’t dead yet. He’s appeared. But what I don’t understand is that he didn’t escape from the country at the first moment. He even spent a huge sum of money to bribe people. He says he wants to come to your school to find a girl. According to the news I got, it seems like he’s referring to the girl he kidnapped.”
Jun Zeye frowned as he asked, “What’s the name of the girl.”
“Mu Xiaoxiao.”
Jun Zeye’s gaze turned cold.
Ning Ruyan asked, puzzled. “Is this Mu Xiaoxiao girl the one who was kidnapped in Heaven and Earth Mall yesterday? Who is she? Why is KO so interested in her?”
“Tell me immediately if there are any new developments,” Jun Zeye said, ignoring Ning Ruyan’s question.
“Brother, do you know who she is?” Ning Ruyan was really curious.
“I don’t know. Who she is isn’t important.”
“Not important? Why does it seem as though you’re kind of worried about her?”
It was good that the bell for cla.s.s was about to ring.
Jun Zeye said, “I have to go to cla.s.s now. We’ll talk when you have news.”
Before Ning Ruyan could finish speaking, Jun Zeye had already hung up.
The bell for cla.s.s rang just as Jun Zeye reached the cla.s.sroom.
However, Mu Xiaoxiao’s seat was empty.
He looked at the empty seat beside him and frowned.
In front, Feng Tianqi was also puzzled. “Cla.s.s has already started. Why is Xiaoxiao still not here? Could she be skipping cla.s.s again?”
“She didn’t skip cla.s.s. Mu Xiaoxiao is downstairs. Young Master Jie is bringing her here,” the boy beside him said as he pointed towards the window.
Upon hearing this, the students craned their necks and looked outside. As expected, they saw the silhouettes of Mu Xiaoxiao and Yin Shaojie.
Mu Xiaoxiao looked as though she had just woken up. She seemed drowsy, her eyelids droopy as though she couldn’t open them.
Yin Shaojie was chuckling as he pinched both her cheeks. He then lowered his handsome face and said something to her.
Mu Xiaoxiao glared at him and slapped his hands away.
Yin Shaojie rubbed the spots she had been pinched with his fingers earlier. He said something to her with a dazzling smile on his face.
