Wen Hui looked at Zhou Zhenya with more confusion than before. Help? Do you even know what I am going to do? "Uh..."But before she could even speak, Zhou Zhenya already went down the stairs while holding her hand, dragging her with the little lady as a result.
Zhou Zhenya and Wen Hui arrived on the fourth floor. This was where the gymnasium of the school was located.
"So, nice ghost, let me find some makeup to give you a makeover, while you stay here!" Zhou Zhenya said before walking away.
"...Ghost, huh?" Wen Hui froze for a moment, thinking about what this little girl meant. After a while, she finally understood what this little girl was saying. Thinking that she was a ghost here to get revenge, she would show off her new looks...
"Well, if that little kid applies makeup to me, I can only sense that something will go horribly wrong... That"s what I want!" Wen Hui nodded in satisfaction.
Ring, ring! The second bell rung.
Wen Hui was startled. It"s actually cla.s.s time already, I almost forgot! But the little lady said to wait, how can I betray her expectations? She was conflicted inside.
Meanwhile, Zhou Zhenya was running through the third floor. There were many doors along this hallway, so she had trouble choosing where to go to first.
"Uhm, I don"t know..." Zhou Zhenya was getting more nervous as time went on. She was a child, and naturally, she was afraid of strangers due to her parents" teachings.
The only reason why she so easily spoke to Wen Hui was that she emitted the aura of a kind teacher, and once she heard her pleasing voice, she immediately knew that she was to be trusted.
She stood in the middle of the hallway, her face riddled with sweat and a look of nervousness plastered all over.
"I... I should try this room, I guess..." Zhou Zhenya hesitantly walked towards the door nearest to her and put her hand above the k.n.o.b. She was reluctant to open this door.
Coincidentally, the teacher inside was Ruan Juan, who was in love with Chen Chen. Then, for some inexplicable reason, she lost all of those feelings yesterday. Just what mystical stuff happened the previous day?
She was about to walk out of the room as she forgot to bring her laptop in a rush.
Zhou Zhenya was about to open the door, when suddenly...!
The k.n.o.b moved on its own! Could miss ghost be helping me?
Naturally, this wasn"t the doing of the non-existent miss ghost, but rather Ruan Juan. A door"s k.n.o.b, no matter which side is twisted, would always move on both sides.
The door opened as well.
Ruan Juan"s face was riddled with sweat as she was rushing out of the room. However, before she could get outside, a little lady blocked her path.
"...Huh? Who is this?", Ruan Juan thought to herself. It was only natural that she couldn"t recognize Zhou Zhenya. After all, this was the child"s first time in the school.
Zhou Zhenya stretched her arms on both sides in an attempt to block the female teacher before her. She needed to ask her something first!
"Miss teacher! Wait a minute!" She said quite loudly. No one but Ruan Juan heard it though since everyone inside the cla.s.sroom was too preoccupied making noise amongst themselves.
"Hmm? Little miss, what are you doing here?" Ruan Juan said with a smile on her face. She was trained to deal with children the moment she got her first younger brother. After that came her second and third brothers.
Hearing the teacher"s question, Zhou Zhenya immediately responded. "Do you have any makeup?"
"Huh?" Ruan Juan was puzzled. Why would this little lady ask me if I had makeup? Does she intend to borrow them? Nonetheless, Ruan Juan answered candidly. "Yes, I have makeup."
"In that case... please let me borrow them!" Zhou Zhenya shamelessly said as she put both her hands in front of her and opened them.
"Uhh..." Ruan Juan didn"t know how to respond. Of course, she was willing to help a little miss anytime, but there was also the case of her makeup being very expensive. If something were to happen to them, who knew what she would do to this child? Not to mention that she was a complete stranger! If she really were to lend her the makeup set, the chances of the child simply forgetting that it was borrowed were very high, and she had no way of contact should she run away. "Well... how should I say this?"
Seeing that the teacher lady was hesitating, Zhou Zhenya immediately addressed her doubts. "Don"t worry, I will return them. For now, there is an urgent need! Please, miss teacher, just for a few minutes..." As she said this, she put on her puppy eyes and waited patiently for a potentially positive response.
Ruan Juan saw the child begging for her makeup set and couldn"t resist anymore. She had to lend her the set, otherwise, she would feel guilty for life!
She walked back into her cla.s.sroom, getting the attention of the students inside.
"She"s back already? I thought she went down to get her laptop..."
"She doesn"t have it in her arms... I suppose she hasn"t gone down to get it yet."
"Hmm? Then why did she come back here?"
The students were confused as to what their homeroom teacher was doing. Why did she come back here when she was supposed to get her laptop from the first floor?
Ruan Juan walked up to the teacher"s desk, where her bag was on. She opened the zipper and put one of her hands inside, digging through her bag.
Aha, there it is!
She grabbed the makeup set inside her bag and pulled it out.
Upon seeing what she grabbed, the students were even more confused. What did makeup have to do with fetching laptops?
Ruan Juan walked outside and gave Zhou Zhenya the makeup. "Make sure to return them, alright?"
"Uhm, yes." Zhou Zhenya nodded aggressively. "Thanks, miss teacher!" She then proceeded to run upstairs.
Meanwhile, Ruan Juan went down.
