Lu Mian quickly retracted her gaze lazily. Her eyes had coldness, distance and brightness unlike Lu Xinnuan’s.

Ding Cai pulled a chair over for Lu Mian.

“Lu Mian, how did you do in your examinations?”

Lu Mian’s almond-like eyes became dazed.

“It’s either you let me tutor you, or you draw on our classroom’s blackboard this afternoon.”

Lu Xinnuan smiled seemingly. Let Lu Mian draw?

She had not touched drawing materials in more than ten years.

When Sun Jiaying heard this, she seemed to remember something and asked, “Is our classroom’s blackboard finished?”

She was busy preparing the speech for the pep rally and did not have time to care about such miscellaneous items.

“Teacher, it’s all done.” Lu Xinnuan smiled.

“I’m confident in your work.”

Su Jue looked up from his script with a strange expression, but he did not say anything.

On the other side, Ding Cai’s body turned to back face Sun Jiaying and the rest. Flames burned faintly in his eyes as he awaited Lu Mian’s reply.

Lu Mian was pretty helpless.

“I have a third option for you.” Ding Cai said after seeing her difficult expression, “If you can pass your physics examination this month, I’ll let you study on your own.”

After he finished his sentence, Lu Mian immediately gestured an ‘ok’ with her hands without even thinking.

Lu Xinnuan’s smile became even wider. If it was not for the teacher in front of her, she would have laughed.

She knew Lu Mian’s capabilities the best.

She scraped past the cut-off point for high school, but her grades were still pretty trash. It was impossible for her to score 60 in the physics examination.

However, an interesting comparison would probably happen then…

…

After the second period in the afternoon ended, it was the tenth-graders’ orientation and the twelfth-graders’ pep rally.

The two cohorts had their events respectively in the two halls and did not affect each other. After the pep rally ended, the parents from each class returned to the classrooms to talk to the teachers in detail.

Lu Xinnuan happily directed her parents to their designated position.

Fu Man felt that she was given face as her position was way ahead of the other parents.

She purposely wore a red dress. One could tell that she was a beauty when she was young.

From time to time, she conversed with the parents beside her with much pride.

“My daughter is going to give a speech later.”

The parents around her were envious.

The parents gradually found their seats in the hall, but the backstage was a mess.

When Sun Jiaying heard the class monitor’s report, she raised her voice. “Sui Yuan is missing? Where can she be?”

“Teacher, we’ve checked the classroom, toilets and lounge, but there’s nobody there… I only realized that she was missing when I was arranging their seats.” The class monitor added weakly, “Her table partner thought that she was sick…”

The main reason was that Sui Yuan’s presence was too weak, even the teachers did not notice her absence.

Sun Jiaying’s head throbbed a few times, and she could not care about preparing for the speech, as she took out her phone to call Sui Yuan’s family members.

However, she suddenly remembered that Sui Yuan was an orphan and had no family.

At this stage, she did not dare to hide the incident and hurriedly reported to the cohort department. The level head’s face darkened. “Perhaps the philanthropist that sponsored her would know about this.”

…

Many people saw Elder Su rushing to school.

When Lu Xinnuan heard it, she happily joked with Su Jue, “Grandpa Su really loves you. Isn’t he here now?”

She thought that his impression of her would definitely improve if Old Master Su saw her giving the speech.

Su Jue was very confused.

However, the news about Elder Su not going to the hall but to the level head’s office instead had quickly spread.
