"Yes, whatâs the matter?"
Liu Guoying wasnât usually a gossip, but for some reason, he couldnât help but talk more in front of this student, unable to hold anything back.
He hesitated for a moment but then told Chiang Xiao, "Because the part-time job Ye Wanqing helped her find was with Deng Qingjiang, right? It seems there was a bit of trouble, and just now Ye Wanqing was smearing her. I saw that child looked a bit dazed."
Chiang Xiaoâs heart skipped a beat.
In her previous life, Xie Landi had jumped to her death!
She never knew why, and at that time, she wasnât familiar with her roommates, had no interest in gossip, and didnât know what happened.
Could it be because of this incident?
Chiang Xiao hurriedly asked, "Teacher, what did Ye Wanqing say about her?"
Bringing this up, Liu Guoying felt a bit embarrassed.
But he told her anyway.
"Iâve already asked her class teacher to talk to her."
Just after saying this, he saw Xie Landiâs class teacher walking over from the corridor, and he called out loudly, "Teacher Ai!"
Teacher Ai saw them and walked over briskly.
"Howâs that student?"
"Ah, donât mention it, you said I should look for her, right? I went back to the class, and the classmates said she didnât return at all. After you mentioned it, Iâve been a bit uneasy, so I wanted to find her."
She didnât return to class!
She had been gone for quite a while.
"Letâs have some other students help look for her." Liu Guoying felt uneasy too; earlier in the principalâs office, he already felt something was off with that childâs emotions.
Chiang Xiao thought for a moment and said, "Iâll go back to the dorm and see if sheâs returned."
"Itâs class time, you should go to class, Iâll go have a look." Liu Guoying waved her off to go to class.
Chiang Xiao went back to class, but halfway through, she still felt uneasy. She immediately raised her hand and stood up, "Reporting to the teacher, I have a stomachache, I want to go to the medical room!"
"You really have a stomachache?" The teacher looked at her suspiciously.
Chiang Xiao was the schoolâs darling, but she frequently asked for leave, which was something no one could overlook. Every time he saw her sitting at her desk for an entire class, the teacher felt like he hit the jackpot.
So with a peculiar mindset, he wanted to see her sitting through an entire class.
Chiang Xiao held her stomach, seeming uncomfortable, and said, "Really, I have a stomachache."
The teacher sighed and reluctantly waved, "Go, go! If everythingâs okay after the check-up, come back to class quickly, do you hear me?"
Chiang Xiao nodded and ran out the back door.
Jin Lei glanced over, wondering what Chiang Xiao was up to.
A stomachache?
Youâve got to be kidding, with that rosy face, how could she look uncomfortable? The teacher was standing too far and his eyesight wasnât great, so he got fooled by her.
After running out, Chiang Xiao went to Xie Landiâs class, looked carefully through the window but saw an empty seat, not seeing Xie Landi.
So she still hadnât returned to class.
She then went to Liu Guoyingâs office but found he hadnât returned either.
Chiang Xiao felt something was amiss, hesitated for a bit, then ran to the dormitory.
"Auntie, did Teacher Liu come by just now?" Chiang Xiao asked the dorm auntie.
"He came by, and then left. Whatâs the matter, Chiang Xiao?"
Chiang Xiao was too well-known, so even the dorm auntie recognized her now.
