Just as Mo Zhu opened the door of the ward, Meng Ran patted her head and reminded her, “Sister Mo, aren’t you eating with us?”

As Mo Zhu walked out the door, she waved her hand behind her and her voice disappeared from the door of the ward. “I’m not eating.”

After the four of them had finished eating, Mo Zhu brought them back into the car with Mo Wu who had been waiting downstairs. The car did not delay and drove straight to Jingyang High School.

Among the five of them, other than Mo Zhu, there was only Meng Ran who was a girl. Hence, everyone agreed that she would sit in the seat beside Mo Zhu.

Not long after the car started moving, Meng Ran poked Mo Zhu’s arm hesitantly and asked carefully, “Sister Mo, do we go back to school openly like this. I’m afraid of punishment…”

Before Meng Ran could finish, Mo Zhu retracted her gaze that was looking out the window and replied calmly, “These are not things you should worry about. I’m here for everything. Just return to class as usual.”

With Mo Zhu’s words, the four people in the car heaved a long sigh of relief. Their hearts were finally at ease.

It was not that they were afraid of Xing Meng, but that young lady had threatened the entire Class Eight too ruthlessly last time. She even said that if they did not listen to her, she would send them to the intensive care unit of the hospital and stay there for the rest of their lives.

Now that Mo Zhu had returned, there was finally someone who could dampen Xing Meng’s spirit. In fact, not only were the students from Class Eight tormented by Xing Meng these two days, but the entire level’s students had also been tormented by her. They all hoped that the school would step forward to manage this matter, or that someone would stand up for everyone and deal a blow to Xing Meng.

Ten minutes later, the car stopped at the entrance of Jingyang High School. Mo Zhu opened the door and was about to get out of the car. She was halfway through her action when she seemed to have recalled something. She turned her head and asked Meng Ran, “The two of you have been in the hospital for so long. How did you explain it to your family?”

Meng Ran opened her mouth and was about to reply when Zhang Qi said impatiently from behind, “Sister Mo, I have been staying in school starting from this semester. Last week, I called my father and said that I won’t be going back for the weekend after extra tutoring in school.”

After saying that, he pointed at Meng Ran and replied, “Meng Ran told her family that she is staying at her classmate’s house. Her parents are often on business trips, and not home for long periods of time. This girl often stays at her classmate’s house.”

When Mo Zhu heard this, she felt that something was wrong. She frowned and looked at Meng Ran. “Your parents aren’t home often? Why don’t they let you stay on campus?”

When Meng Ran heard Mo Zhu’s question, she lowered her head and stuck out her tongue in embarrassment. “When they just entered school, they told me about this. It’s just that I’m not used to the school’s work and living environment. In addition, I don’t live far away, so I didn’t apply for a dormitory.”

Nodding, Mo Zhu did not probe any further and stood up to get out of the car.

Just as the four of them entered the school gate, it immediately caused a huge uproar at the school gate. The matter between Meng Ran and Zhang Qi had blown up quite badly that day. Now, many students recognized their faces and gathered in the square at the entrance to discuss.

“Am I seeing things? Are they Meng Ran and Zhang Qi from Class Eight? Aren’t they in the hospital?”

“Yes, I remember I watched the ambulance take them away that day. It has only been a few days, but they have already recovered from such a serious injury?”

“That’s not right, that’s not right. Xing Meng was so cruel. It’s impossible for the two of them to return to school so quickly to attend class. That day, I clearly heard a few sounds of bones breaking. It would’ve taken them a long time to recover. How could they recover so quickly?”

As the few of them spoke, Mo Zhu had already brushed past them. One of the people in the crowd recognized the girl’s face and immediately raised his elbow to knock the shoulder of the person beside him. “Look, is the young lady leading the group Mo Zhu? I heard that she’s from the Huo family. Could it be that the Huo family had invited a divine doctor to treat Meng Ran and Zhang Qi?”

“Yes, what you said sounds quite possible!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
