“There’s no hurry.”

Lu Sheng pushed the red packet back. “It’s not too late to give me a red packet after the child recovers.”

Mr. Zhong was a bit embarrassed. He also knew that Lu Sheng was probably feeling uncomfortable because of his doubts.

It was reasonable to doubt her once, but he had questioned her a few times. This was indeed a bit too much.

He glanced at Fu Lei, trying to seek his help.

Unexpectedly, Fu Lei did not care about his gaze at all. He could only look at Chu Hongzhong pleadingly.

“Mr. Zhong, I recommended her. If you suspect Lu Sheng, it’s equivalent to suspecting me,” Chu Hongzhong said calmly. “Mr. Zhong, do you think I’m the kind of person who likes to talk nonsense?”

“It’s a misunderstanding!” Mr. Zhong said awkwardly, “I was just anxious. Please forgive me, Mr. Chu and Miss Lu!”

“For the sake of the child, I’ll let this matter pass.” Chu Hongzhong looked at him and said, “Treating the child’s illness is more important. Mr. Zhong, please go back first.”

Mr. Zhong, who was being chased away, hurriedly stood up. “You’re right. We’ll go back now!”

After leaving the Chu family, Mr. Zhong felt uncomfortable.

However, when he thought of his grandson’s illness, he could only put down his displeasure.

After returning, Mr. Zhong bought the things and followed Lu Sheng’s instructions.

At night, the Zhong family waited nervously.

Unexpectedly, the child fell asleep at around eleven and slept soundly.

The Zhong family sat in the hall until midnight. Seeing that the child did not intend to wake up, they dispersed.

The next morning, Mr. Zhong called Fu Lei and said that he wanted to treat Lu Sheng to a meal, hoping to thank her in person and apologize for what happened yesterday.

Unexpectedly, Fu Lei said that he had returned to City H and asked Mr. Zhong to find Chu Hongzhong for help personally.

Mr. Zhong had no choice but to personally go to the Chu family to ask Chu Hongzhong for help.

Chu Hongzhong did not say anything. He took out his phone and called Chu Sihan. The other party said something and hung up quickly.

“Mr. Chu, did Miss Lu say anything?” Mr. Zhong asked expectantly.

Chu Hongzhong said lightly, “Lu Sheng said that she thanks Mr. Zhong for his kindness. However, she won’t be having the meal. She even said that it was nothing and that you don’t have to take it to heart.”

“Well…” Mr. Zhong hesitated and wanted to say something, but Chu Hongzhong interrupted him. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll return to the company first.”

“Okay, I won’t disturb you anymore!”

Knowing that Chu Hongzhong was already unhappy with him, Mr. Zhong could only leave gloomily.

On Lu Sheng’s side, she had just returned her phone to Chu Sihan when the bell for the second lesson rang.

Everyone felt differently on the first day of class.

As they had already seen the results yesterday, there were some who were happy and some who were regretful.

Those who were happy did well or had their rankings improved, such as Zeng Zijuan.

The unhappy ones were naturally those who could have done well but did not.

The only fortunate thing was that the students of Class One were still around and were not redivided into other classes.

The second lesson was Teng Shu’s class.

He held the papers and textbook in one hand and a bag of sweets in the other.

Jun Hao had sharp eyes and saw the bag of sweets immediately. Then, he teased excitedly, “Teacher, are these wedding sweets for you and Teacher Jiang?”

Teng Shu smiled at him but did not answer. Instead, he placed the papers and wedding sweets on the rostrum..
