Subconsciously, Bai Qing hid her phone behind her and looked back to see the male teacher she met on the stairs.
The latter smiled and said, "That's great. I was wondering if you would come here. I thought about it again, and I feel that the compensation is too little. I'm afraid that three hundred yuan won't be enough to fix your broken phone." After that, he looked at the owner on the side, took out his wallet from his pocket, and asked, "How much does it cost to fix it?"
"Eight hundred yuan," the owner answered truthfully.
The male teacher frowned, "So expensive?"
"That's the official price," the owner said confidently.
"Is this the official screen?"
"Of course." The owner pointed to the sign outside that said that it was an Apple Authorized Professional Repair Shop.
The male teacher sneered, "Are you kidding me? Which one of you doesn't have such a sign? Gaud Map shows that it's authorized by Apple. You can't even find an official repair shop."
The owner smiled.
"Your screen is definitely not original," the male teacher said. "Four hundred yuan. If you don't fix it, we'll go to another shop."
"Brother, you're too ruthless. I'm running a small business, and the profit is not as high as you think. I won't be able to earn anything from this price," the owner said with a sad face.
It was impossible for him not to make a profit, but from 800 to 400, the difference was a little big. The boss was definitely upset, and he complained that the male teacher was being a busybody. However, seeing that the other party had already used the escape method, he could only sigh and say, "Forget it, forget it. I'll just make a loss and make a profit. 400 it is then."
After solving the problem of the phone repair fee, the male teacher looked at Bai Qing again, only to find that she did not look grateful. Instead, she looked a little nervous.
"I don't think I've seen you before. Is this your first day here?" The male teacher said, breaking the awkward atmosphere. "But there should be classes in school today."
"I … asked for leave." Bai Qing took two steps back and leaned against the glass cabinet.
"Is that so?" The male teacher blinked. "What's your relationship with Director Gao?"
"How did you know that I went to see Director Gao?" Bai Qing asked warily.
"Don't be so nervous. It's just a casual chat," the male teacher shrugged. "Uncle Zheng, the gatekeeper, told me. You told him yourself."
"What does this have to do with you?" Bai Qing asked.
"No, just like I said, we're just chatting." A hint of helplessness appeared on the male teacher's face. "You don't seem to have a good temper."
"That's because I don't like to chat with strangers," Bai Qing said.
"Okay." The male teacher nodded. "I was going to send you home after I fix your phone."
"No, thank you. I have my own legs. I can go back," Bai Qing said straightforwardly.
At this time, even the owner of the phone repair shop could sense the tension between the two of them. He raised his head and looked at the two of them suspiciously, not knowing what their relationship was.
The male teacher took half a step back and raised his hand to signal Bai Qing to calm down. "Okay, okay, I won't ask anymore."
"Then why are you still here?"
The male teacher was so angry that he laughed. "You are too rude. How did your parents educate you? Not only did you not thank me for fixing your phone, but you even said something like that. Okay, you can play by yourself. I'm not going to serve you anymore." After that, he turned around and walked out of the phone repair shop.
Bai Qing breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that and urged the owner to fix her phone as soon as possible. She wanted to call Zhang Heng earlier, but she was interrupted by the male teacher. The second class had already started, so Bai Qing had no choice but to wait.
After another twenty minutes, it was almost time for the shop owner to fix her phone.
However, the latter still couldn't fix her phone.
Bai Qing became more and more anxious. After she found out that Director Gao had probably been replaced by those things, she became paranoid no matter who she looked at. Besides, this place was too close to Children's Palace, only two hundred meters away. Bai Qing didn't know if her previous acting skills had fooled Director Gao.
Her performance in the warehouse was already considered to be of a high level.
However, she didn't dare to say that she didn't have any flaws.
Now that she thought about it, the timing of the phone breaking seemed to be a bit of a coincidence, so she couldn't contact Zhang Heng. Similarly, the repair shop owner who couldn't fix her phone became suspicious in her eyes.
Bai Qing kept urging the shop owner to hurry up.
The shop owner was also sweating profusely. She didn't know if it was more haste, but the phone should have been fixed a long time ago. Now, it was delayed again and again. Bai Qing couldn't remember how many times she had asked the shop owner to speed up. On the other hand, she turned around and saw a suspicious MINI on the opposite street.
She couldn't see the face in the driver's seat, but she felt that the figure looked like the male teacher who had left earlier.
When Bai Qing asked the shop owner again when he could fix her phone, the latter looked a little impatient. "What's the hurry? Anyway, I will definitely fix it for you in the morning. If not, you can go to the nearby shopping mall first."
Bai Qing seemed to have made up her mind when she heard that. She grabbed the unrepaired phone from the shop owner and pushed the door of the repair shop open.
The shop owner was stunned for half a second before he reacted and shouted, "Hey, where are you going? You haven't finished fixing it yet," he paused and said, "You didn't pay for it, did you?"
However, Bai Qing had already run far away. When she walked out of the door, she looked in the direction of the MINI, and the black shadow inside seemed to be looking at her. The two of them looked at each other, and the next moment, Bai Qing started running. She vaguely heard the sound of an engine starting behind her.
Bai Qing didn't know if it was the MINI, but she was already panicking. She plunged into the neighborhood next to her, trying to get rid of the person who was following her. However, she lost her sense of direction after circling the neighborhood twice. When she saw an exit, she ran out and ran along the road. She didn't expect to run back to the entrance of the planetarium.
She happened to see Director Gao standing in front of the door, talking to the old man who guarded the door. She looked like she was about to go out as well.
Bai Qing quickly turned her head and walked back. However, she saw the MINI at the end of the road after taking two steps.
The fear in Bai Qing's heart rose to its peak.
But at this moment, a hand pulled her to the newsstand on the side.
Bai Qing almost screamed until she saw the person who pulled her. "Aren't you in school? Why are you here?" she blurted out.
"I sent you a WeChat message, but you didn't reply. I was worried that something had happened to you, so I came here," Zhang Heng said. "Don't worry. I have taken care of things at school."
After that, he reached out and tidied up the messy hair on Bai Qing's forehead. "It's okay. I'm here now," he said gently.
However, when his fingers touched Bai Qing's forehead, she subconsciously moved back.
