As Jiang Tao stepped out the front door, her feet paused for a moment. In the end, she decided to hide behind the wall and wait a few minutes. After confirming that Uncle Zhang didnât discover her actions, she finally relaxed and returned to her room happily.
A few minutes later, the secretary at the headquarters of Huo Corporation received a phone call from the Huo Manor.
Just one word was enough to highlight the importance.
Knock knock knockâ
There was suddenly a knock on the meeting room door. A man was seated in front of a room of almost a hundred people.
âCome in.â
Huo Yunque lowered his gaze and tapped on the table with his pen. âContinue,â he said indifferently.
âYes, Boss.â
At that moment, Huo Qi rushed in hurriedly. He glanced at the people in the meeting room, walked over to Huo Yunque, and leaned over slightly. He then whispered something beside his ear.
âOh?â
Without any change in his expression, the man threw down his pen and slowly stood up.
âThe meeting is postponed.â
Before his voice even fell, he had already walked out the meeting room door.
His steps were calm and he had a graceful posture.
But only those that knew him, noticed that he was walking a lot faster than usual.
...
Outside the school, a variety of private cars were parked outside even though school wasnât over yet.
The people that stepped out were all dressed like successful people. As they stepped out, they all looked at each other in surprise.
âDid your kid call you too?â
âYou too?â
The atmosphere was suddenly awkward. This was the first time they had witnessed a scene like this.
âOh? President Liu is here too? Itâs an honor to see you.â
âMrs. Wei? Long time no see. Youâve gotten more beautiful!â
âOh, shucks. Letâs go in together.â
âYou first, please...â
Their social circle was only so big. Although they didnât meet regularly, they did cross paths in business.
So they all began to talk outside the school gates.
...
Class 3-1.
The class had already been running for over ten minutes. Song Jingwan glanced at the empty seats including An Feiranâs.
That morning, she had actually seen Yan Ruoyang stretching out his leg to trip An Feiran. But, so what? It wasnât worth offending the only son of the Yans, Yan Ruoyang, over a weak and useless poor kid.
But what happened? Why werenât they back yet? Did something happen?
Buzzâ
Her phone vibrated.
Song Jingwan quietly shoved her hand under her desk, snuck a glance at the teacher who was teaching at the front, and secretly lowered her head.
Xu Yue: Song Yaoyaoâs screwed.
Song Jingwan: Did she cause trouble again?
Xu Yue: She didnât just cause trouble! She smashed Yan Ruoyangâs head with a stone and she instructed the third class to beat up Liu Peng and Deng Qi until their faces were bruised and swollen. Jingwan, I really think Song Yaoyaoâs lost her mind. Is this something that a normal person would do?
She smashed someoneâs head just because they didnât agree with her. Where did she get the guts to do that?
Song Jingwanâs hand trembled and she almost dropped her phone on the ground.
A weird expression appeared on her face. It wasnât clear whether she was happy or confused.
After Xu Yue explained the entire incident to her, her lips curved into a smile.
Song Yaoyao, youâre certainly not afraid of causing trouble...
âMiss!â
Song Jingwan suddenly raised her hand. âI want to go to the bathroom.â
âHuh? Okay, go ahead.â
Song Jingwan was normally well-behaved in class, and her results were good, so the teacher agreed as soon as she saw it was her.
âThank you, Miss!â
After saying this, Song Jingwan quietly placed her phone in her pocket and scurried out of the room.
