Chapter 58: Qin Xue Called to the Office
"We played a lot, but because I and the class monitor aren't good at card games, Qin Xue taught us all of them. Qin Xue, as expected of a top student, knows many, such as drawing cards to answer questions, and there's a particularly fun one called Miss Card Game. Later we also played a King's Game, which I've never played before."
Su Yun Jiao blurted all of this out at once.
The other students also showed puzzled expressions.
What kind of games are these?
Only the teacher beside them turned grim.
The students are young and don't know what these games are, but that doesn't mean adults don't know.
Soon, the teacher directed a disappointed gaze at Qin Xue.
She never imagined that the usually obedient Qin Xue would also learn such games in bars and nightclubs.
After realizing she had been seen through, Qin Xue immediately lowered her head.
Fortunately, the surrounding students still didn't know what this game was.
Otherwise, the whole class would know she had invited Lu Chi out, and it certainly wasn't with good intentions.
"Mrs. Lu, I already understand this matter. I will properly handle the relationship between the two of them and guarantee that this won't happen again."
The homeroom teacher of Class Yi Ban was very sincere.
Lu Mu had originally come to the school this time just to warn Qin Xue.
Seeing that the teacher had already agreed, Lu Mu no longer insisted.
"Alright, I have other things to do, I'll leave first."
After Lu Mu finished speaking, she turned and left.
As she was leaving, Lu Mu glanced back at Qin Xue, her eyes full of warning.
Qin Xue dared not raise her head.
After Lu Mu left, the homeroom teacher of Class Yi Ban then said to the surrounding students: "Everyone return to class. Qin Xue, come with me to the office."
The homeroom teacher's gaze toward Qin Xue turned cold.
Su Yun Jiao naturally knew what the homeroom teacher would say when calling Qin Xue to the office.
She walked over to Zhou Xian without concern and said, "Class monitor, let's go too."
"Okay."
Zhou Xian agreed.
Not far away, Zhou Tingting saw this scene and her face turned grim.
When class ended, Zhou Tingting immediately went to Zhou Xian's side, pulled him out of the classroom without a word, and said, "Brother, why are you helping Su Yun Jiao?"
Zhou Tingting didn't understand.
She didn't understand why her brother repeatedly helped someone she disliked.
"Tingting, Su Yun Jiao is a classmate like everyone else; you shouldn't be so unreasonable in the future."
Zhou Xian frowned and said, "Do you remember when we were little, because Su Yun Jiao and Lu Chi were close, you deliberately pushed Su Yun Jiao into the park lake?"
Although, that was just because we were young and didn't understand.
But doing wrong is still wrong.
Zhou Tingting obviously also recalled that elementary school spring outing when she pushed Su Yun Jiao into the park lake, and it was her brother who rescued Su Yun Jiao.
If it had been any later, she would have died.
"I didn't mean it either; who knew she really couldn't swim?"
When we were young, Su Yun Jiao was a mute gourd, never speaking, only communicating with Lu Chi.
She just couldn't stand it.
That time was also because I didn't want Su Yun Jiao to keep clinging to Lu Chi, so I went to warn her.
Who knew Su Yun Jiao herself was afraid to step back, and ended up falling into the lake by accident?
"You've done something wrong toward others; from now on you should pay attention—you're not a little kid anymore, you should know what to do and what not to do."
Seeing her brother again scold her because of Su Yun Jiao, Zhou Tingting's dissatisfaction grew.
But although she was dissatisfied, this time she didn't retort.
Because Zhou Xian brought up the past.
It was because she had first wronged Su Yun Jiao.
In the classroom, Su Yun Jiao was earnestly writing her test; when Zhou Xian and Zhou Tingting entered, Zhou Tingting suddenly threw a piece of Oreo pie onto Su Yun Jiao's desk.
"Here you go!"
"For me?"
Su Yun Jiao lowered her head, glanced at the Oreo pie in her hand, and thought she was mistaken.
Out of the blue, how could Zhou Tingting possibly give me these?
"Want it or not? If not, forget it!"
Zhou Tingting made a move to snatch it back, but Su Yun Jiao tore open the wrapper and stuffed it into her mouth.
Seeing this, Zhou Tingting turned her head and said, "I just couldn't finish it, so I gave it to you—it's only a piece of chocolate pie, not a big deal."
"……"
Su Yun Jiao didn't know what was wrong with Zhou Tingting.
However, she hadn't eaten breakfast that morning, so eating this shouldn't cause low blood sugar.
"This is the silver ear and lotus seed soup I had my aunt make for you."
Zhou Xian placed a thermos in front of Su Yun Jiao, and also put a simply packaged boxed meal into her drawer.
"What is this?"
"Lunch."
Zhou Xian said, "I kept it warm in the insulated box; at noon I'll help you heat it up in the teacher's office microwave, then you can eat it."
Su Yun Jiao had thought Zhou Xian was just saying he'd prepare her lunch.
I didn't expect Zhou Xian to have it ready for her so quickly.
"Thank you, class monitor."
Being class monitor is great.
The microwave in the teacher's office can be used freely.
Zhou Tingting beside her said sourly, "You have your brother preparing your lunch, while Lu Chi still doesn't know what to eat."
"What Lu Chi eats has nothing to do with me; it's just the hospital's nutritional meal."
Su Yun Jiao lowered her head and, taking advantage of the break, took a big sip of silver ear lotus seed soup.
I have to say, the physical exertion of these third-year high school students is astonishing.
That half sandwich every morning just doesn't fill you up.
"If it weren't for you, Lu Chi wouldn't have ended up in the hospital."
"Eldest Miss, what does this have to do with me?"
Su Yun Jiao said, "Lu Chi got drunk and went crazy—are you also going to blame that on me?"
I actually want to ask you, what were those games you mentioned in front of Aunt Lu earlier? I've never heard of any of them.
From just now on, Zhou Tingting has been curious about what games Su Yun Jiao was talking about.
As soon as Su Yun Jiao mentioned those games, Qin Xue was taken to the office by the teacher.
At that moment, Zhou Xian beside her frowned and said, "Tingting, don't ask random nonsense."
"How could this be considered random nonsense?" Zhou Tingting said, "I'm just purely curious—what game is it?"
Su Yun Jiao said indifferently, "That game is where you deliberately make someone drink at the table; Qin Xue poured that much alcohol into Lu Chi the night before last—of course he'd go crazy."
Upon hearing that, Zhou Tingting's face changed: "What? It was really Qin Xue who gave the alcohol? Then why didn't you say so in front of Aunt Lu earlier?"
"Why should I say? I don't want to be blamed by everyone."
