Chapter 28

Su Yun Jiao was urgently sent away by the Zhou Family's hospital.

Lu Chi's matter also quickly drew the homeroom teacher.

"Lu Chi, explain to me, what exactly happened?"

The homeroom teacher had already learned some from other classmates' mouths, but the homeroom teacher wanted to hear Lu Chi explain it personally.

Qin Xue bit their lip, hesitantly saying: "Teacher, actually..."

"I'm asking about Lu Chi!"

The homeroom teacher glanced at Qin Xue in front of them and said: "Qin Xue, I remember you're not from our class, but you've been coming to our class three days a week lately—what's up?"

"I..."

"It has nothing to do with her."

Lu Chi said bluntly: "The cake was me letting Su Yun Jiao eat it; the problem is with me."

"No!" Qin Xue immediately said: "Teacher, it's because yesterday was my birthday, so I specially sent Su Yun Jiao a cake; I didn't know Su Yun Jiao was allergic to cake… Who knew, after she ate it the reaction would be so big."

Hearing Qin Xue lie, Lu Chi furrowed their brow.

And the few classmates originally called to the office quickly turned around, following Qin Xue's words and saying: "Yeah yeah teacher, it was Su Yun Jiao herself who ate the cake; who knew she'd be allergic to cake? This is her own carelessness."

The homeroom teacher's brow furrowed even more, they looked at Lu Chi before them and said: "Lu Chi, is that so?"

……uh.

Lu Chi responded.

The surrounding classmates also breathed a sigh of relief.

But the homeroom teacher is not foolish.

Cliques forming in the school are quite obvious.

Who is close to whom, who will speak for whom, they see it clearly.

This matter had better be an accident; otherwise…… you'll have to write another self‑critique for me!

The homeroom teacher set down the teacup in their hand and said: "Everyone out! Qin Xue stays."

Qin Xue seeing they couldn't leave, their face instantly turned a bit pale.

Qin Xue looked pleadingly at the Lu Chi beside them.

Lu Chi indeed said: "What does this have to do with Qin Xue? This is our class's affair; why should we let her stay?"

Her problem, I'll have the homeroom teacher of Class One handle it; you don't need to worry, get out!

Seeing the homeroom teacher still favoring her as before, Lu Chi this time directly grabbed Qin Xue's arm: "Let's go, back to class."

Lu Chi! Are you rebelling?

The homeroom teacher stood up directly.

Lu Chi said: "I'll bear my own matter; it has nothing to do with Qin Xue; don't use your teacher status to press on me."

Having said that, Lu Chi pulled Qin Xue and left.

The surrounding boys, although afraid, couldn't help but join in the clamor.

After all, not everyone can be as bold as Lu Chi.

Lu Chi…… this isn't right, I should go back.

Qin Xue feared offending the teacher; after all, she's different from Lu Chi, lacking the Lu Family background to fall back on.

Seeing Qin Xue afraid, Lu Chi said: "It's fine, with me, they dare not do anything to you."

But……

Go back to class; if only your class's homeroom teacher gives you trouble, just tell me.

Lu Chi comforted Qin Xue a bit.

Lu Chi knew Qin Xue was timid, so Lu Chi patted Qin Xue's head.

Lu Ge, let's go.

Class is already in session; the homeroom teacher can't keep them too long, so they can only let them go back first.

After Lu Chi left, Qin Xue still felt uneasy.

Just afraid that their actions would make the teacher dissatisfied.

So Qin Xue turned back again, she proactively said: "Teacher, I didn't intentionally leave just now…… it was Lu Chi pulling me, I'm really sorry."

Seeing Qin Xue proactively come over to apologize, the homeroom teacher of Class Six furrowed their brow: "Are you and Lu Chi dating?"

No! Absolutely not!

Qin Xue hastily drew a clear line with Lu Chi: "We're just ordinary friends, no dating! I know it's high school now; I'll prioritize studies, absolutely won't let dating affect my studies."

Seeing Qin Xue say that, the homeroom teacher said: "In the future, interact less with Lu Chi; your grades are good, don't let Lu Chi lead you astray."

Teacher, rest assured, I will study hard.

Qin Xue nodded obediently.

Seeing this, the homeroom teacher then said nothing and she let Qin Xue return to class.

At the same time——

After returning to class, Lu Chi quickly packed up their bag, while the subject teacher was teaching at the front.

Seeing Lu Chi pack up their bag, the subject teacher's face darkened: "Lu Chi! What are you up to again?"

Lu Ge, class is in session now; what are you going to do?

A male student beside them whispered a reminder.

Lu Chi, however, paid no heed; he directly slung the bag over his shoulder: "Early release."

Just those words "early release" made the subject teacher's face turn green with anger.

Lu Chi! Do you still have any regard for this teacher of mine!

No.

Lu Chi just grabbed his bag and left.

The classmates in the class were all stunned.

This is senior year!

Lu Chi actually dares to be this late and leave early!

"Lu Chi! You've been late and leaving early too much this week! If you want to drop out, just say so!"

"Whatever."

Lu Chi walked off, unconvinced.

Outside the school.

Lu Chi quickly called a car to go to the hospital in the city center.

Inside the hospital.

Su Yun Jiao was already receiving an IV.

Zhou Xian said at the side: "The doctor said there's no problem anymore; just watch your diet these few days."

After saying that, Zhou Xian put a box of antihistamine on the table beside him and said: "This medicine works well for allergies; keep some handy. You don't need to worry about hospital fees—I've already arranged a private ward for you. Rest well in the hospital these days; I'll bring you the school's exam papers and exercises. If you have any questions you can't solve, just take a photo and ask me."

Su Yun Jiao nodded: "Thanks, class monitor."

"You... you know you're allergic to cake, so why did you eat it?"

Actually, Su Yun Jiao had no need to eat that piece of cake.

Lu Chi also didn't dare to do anything to Su Yun Jiao.

Su Yun Jiao stared at the ceiling, thinking for a while: "How to put it... I just feel I've been too hard on myself in the past."

In her previous life, she had always been yielding.

In front of Lu Chi, she had always been giving in.

This time, she doesn't want to give in.

Looking at Su Yun Jiao before him, Zhou Xian hesitated: "You actually... you don't need to be so hard on yourself, I..."

"Right, class monitor!"

Su Yun Jiao seemed to think of something; she suddenly got up from the hospital bed and grabbed Zhou Xian's arm.

This action left Zhou Xian stunned.

Su Yun Jiao said: "Class monitor, how much does the most expensive single room here cost per night?"

"You... why are you asking this?"

"Don't let yourself be the sucker! Lu Chi said it himself—I'm allergic, he's fully responsible! Go get money from him!"
