Principal Feng also realized that his reaction was not very polite, and he took the initiative to say, "Comrade Sheng Ning, I came to find Anāan. Sheās already out, and all the professors at the school are urging her to return to classes!"
Sheng Ning figured she had met almost everyone she needed to, and invited him, "Then letās talk at home."
"Alright!" Principal Feng didnāt expect that Anāan was actually Hai Yunfengās daughter, and the key point was that Old Leader Shen cared immensely about this granddaughter.
The old leader who hadnāt returned in fifteen years came back this time for his granddaughter, which shocked the higher-ups. Leaders number one, two, and three all met with the old leader, but no one knew what was discussed.
However... itās said... they talked about Sheng An.
Xu Qigang had other matters with his group, so after exchanging greetings, Sheng Ning saw him off at the door. As the two walked in, they happened to hear Anāan sending someone away.
"Alright! You can leave now! Our family doesnāt keep guests for meals."
Hai Shen, looking like an abandoned puppy, wanted to stay but was afraid of displeasing his host, so he had no choice but to leave with a look of grievance. Before leaving, he didnāt forget to gratefully glance at Sheng Ning.
He was genuinely grateful to Sheng Ning for taking care of his sister.
"And who might this be?" Shen Luhua politely asked upon seeing Principal Feng.
"This is Principal Feng."
Upon hearing this, Shen Luhua gratefully thanked him, "Principal Feng, thank you for taking Anāan in. Iāve heard all about it from Ningning. We truly appreciate your help."
"No need to be so formal!" Being thanked by such a formidable person made him feel a bit uneasy. "I came to ask when Sheng An will return to her studies? She has already delayed quite a few days and canāt continue to delay."
"Hah! Whatās the point of studying such simple topics?" Anāan expressed her disdain.
Principal Feng almost choked, confirming that Xiao Li hadnāt been lying upon returning. Sheng An has now become not cute at all; her words truly sting!
"Youāre a student. How can you say the vast sea of knowledge is simple?" Principal Feng struck a pose befitting a teacher.
"Anāan, donāt be rude, be polite." Shen Luhua scolded with a stern face, "Is that how you treat a teacher? Do you understand respect and reverence for teachers?"
"Oh!" Anāan pouted and nodded, "Principal Feng, Iām sorry."
"Hahaha... itās okay, itās okay." Well, since this is the beloved granddaughter of Old Leader Shen, the most prestigious family in the Northern District, he should let it slide a bit.
What if one day Black and White Impermanence come to the school and make a human-shaped bullet imprint just for him?
"When will Sheng An return to school?"
Shen Luhua jumped in to answer, "Tomorrow, sheāll return tomorrow."
Principal Feng didnāt expect it to be so soon, he came today because the group of old professors at the school forced him. The professors were afraid that once Sheng An found her identity, she wouldnāt return, so they pressured him to ask.
To give a timeframe for returning to school.
"Have all matters been settled?" Haha... if heās not mistaken, both the Shen Family and the Hai Family must be eagerly waiting to acknowledge the granddaughter!
"All settled! She will return to school tomorrow."
Anāan nodded, "I really donāt have anything going on."
"..." Principal Feng was speechless, deeply feeling the sentiments of his daughter when she had stayed here and then returned home.
********
At the Provincial Rescue Center Family Quarters, this was Meng Xingzhiās home, and it was mostly occupied by people from the rescue center. Not far from the family quarters was a small teahouse, decorated very elegantly, generally frequented by idle wealthy individuals from the vicinity, and the patrons coming and going were very peaceful.
Since Su Yun took early retirement, she enjoyed passing the time at the teahouse. Nowadays, Meng Xingzhi seldom came home, and Meng Ping hardly ever visited, turning what was supposed to be a home into an ornament.
