Chinese New Year's passed by in fake tranquility

I discovered that they had started to strictly control the aave , they would call the store to deliver it, or they would accompany o outside alone They would always escort me at my side, or if they didn't have time, they would have Mama Yu chaperone me

They were afraid that I would run away again

I didn't think I would run again though Since they nified that their influence was o that was out of their reach?

Winter vacation was almost over, and the new semester at school was about to start

”You're not planning to go to school?” Seeing ely

”I've probably been expelled already,” I said indifferently When I had run away, I had already thought about this outcome, and fully prepared myself for it

”Who said you were expelled?” Hearing what I said, Zhao Yi Xuan shot a weird look at me

”I've cut classes for a month without an excuse, and didn't even take the final exams There's no way I haven't been expelled by this point”

”I requested an absence for you The university agreed to allow you to postpone your final exams,” Zhao Yi Bo explained

What? They requested an absence for me? I haven't been expelled? I sat up in aped at them

”How is that even possible? The university only grants extended absences in extraordinary circumstances What kind of excuse did you use?” I asked with doubt and surprise

”Sick leave The Zhao faet a medical note Besides, even if we hadn't requested an absence, I'otten you back into school anyways”

When I thought about how I htly excited However, when my eyes fell onto the distinct and sinister scar onto face my professors and classmates at school?

”Never ht as well stay at home, since I have people to take care of me anyways”

They followedscar on ret flashed through their eyes

”The doctor said the scar could be reery Since the cut was too deep, it can't be completely erased, but at the very least it could be made less obvious I've already contacted the best plastic surgeon in the Zhao clan hospital, and we'll do the surgery toone” Zhao Yi Xuan sat down next to ently rubbed his thumb over the sinister scar on my wrist It was almost as if he wanted to rub it off my body
