115 Absence (1/2)
The scientist of the future decided not to clarify anything... Especially the fact that all of her praise to Lin Guiying only made his friend embarrassed, not jealous.
And more so the fact that he completed the quest inadvertently because of his inhuman cooking skills.
.....
Lunchtime ended.
Everyone rushed back to their seats in fear of the next teacher.
However, contrary to their expectations, Sir Zhang did not enter the classroom after lunch.
Everyone, apart from a select few, showed delight upon this wonderful occurrence. Especially Zhou Lei, who was scared to death the other day...
Fan Xinyue felt suspicious. 'He disappeared without a trace yesterday, and he isn't here today? Where is that teacher?'
On the other hand, Lu Xi felt nervous. She heard big news from two of her friends yesterday: ”The Mu Shu Chang group was assaulted yesterday by one person — The Iron Grip. Most of their people are now injured.”
'I really have to thank those two... If not for Su Yue and He Lijia, I wouldn't have known...'
What she didn't know was that those two girls, Makeup and Bignose respectively, just blurt that out as an excuse to following her all the way to her home after she caught them peeking from the corner of the street.
'That Iron Grip really is our teacher, ah...'
Since Zhang Liu wasn't around, Zhou Lei went to Lin Hanying's desk again.
The person in front of Lin Hanying was using her phone. She tapped with ferociousness as she argued with someone on the Internet.
Lin Hanying saw that Zhou Lei was approaching her, making her the target of envy from a bunch of students. 'Damn it... Why does he have to be so handsome!'
She once thought that being a top tier beauty was a blessing, a gift from the heavens. Multiple experiences happened to her that made her think otherwise.
'Zhou Lei doesn't take his handsomeness to heart — he doesn't let it affect his pride like I did...'
Zhou Lei tapped the girl using her phone.
”Huh?” With an angry tone, the girl continued, ”What do you want--”
Shock evident on her face, she struggled to speak, ”Z- Z- Zhou Lei? What are you doing here?”
”Can we... switch seats? Just for this period, please!” Zhou Lei put his palms together in a begging manner. This girl had been his classmate for a long time but only now did he speak to her properly.
”S- Sure!” The girl didn't continue what she was about to say. 'Any request you have of me... I would agree! Especially if it's...'
”Thanks!” Zhou Lei sighed in relief. 'So it's true that she was a kind girl.'
The girl evacuated from her seat immediately and headed to Zhou Lei's desk, while the latter sat on her seat.
