Once the car was on the road, Song Li reported last night's situation as he drove. "The Fifth Lord, Young Master Xiao Bai's injury has been treated. Doctor Ji said that if he recuperates well, the cast can be removed in four to six weeks."
"Mm," Huo Yanqing replied faintly.
Song Li hesitated for a moment before saying, "Young Master Xiao Bai insisted on going to school … We couldn't persuade him …"
Song Li sighed softly. Huo Jibai was really going against Old Madam in everything. In the past, he was unwilling to go to school no matter what. Even if he did go to school, he would skip classes and fight. Now that his arm was injured and he needed to recuperate, he insisted on going to school even though he knew that Old Madam was worried about him. What a rebellious and stubborn child.
Huo Yanqing fell silent. His handsome brows were tinged with helplessness. After a moment, he said, "Let him be. Just bring him for checkups on time."
"Okay," Song Li replied respectfully.
When the car was one street away from the school, Shuxin was thinking of an excuse to get off the car when Huo Yanqing beside her said, "Stop the car."
The car came to a steady stop. Huo Yanqing tilted his head to look at Shuxin. "Miss Shu, I'll drop you off here."
Shuxin didn't know if Huo Yanqing wanted her to get off the car here because he had something to do. However, she was very happy. This way, no one from the school would see them. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Fifth Uncle."
Then, she pushed open the door and got off the car. Just as she was about to close the door, Huo Yanqing spoke again. "Thank you, Miss Shu, for last night. It's rare that I had a good night's sleep."
Shuxin was stunned for a moment. A trace of heartache flashed across her eyes. She forced herself to say in her heart, "I can give you massages every day in the future so that you can have a good night's sleep." She only smiled and said, "You're welcome."
…
In the car, Shuxin heard from Song Li that Huo Jibai insisted on coming to school. As soon as she entered the classroom, she instinctively glanced at his seat. He was really here. He was sitting sideways with his bandaged left hand hanging in front of his chest. His right hand was resting on the desk, and his back was leaning against the wall. He was looking in the direction of her seat.
Shuxin wanted to ask about the injury on his arm. After all, he had saved her. But when she thought of Yang Yiqian and Huo Jibai's admirers, she dismissed the idea.
Shuxin sat down in her seat and ignored Huo Jibai's gaze on her. She opened her English textbook and prepared to memorize the text.
"Is your nose okay?"
Shuxin looked up and saw Wei Zichen looking at her worriedly. Shuxin shook her head. "I'm fine."
"That's good." Wei Zichen blamed himself. "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have asked you to clean the field with me."
Shuxin smiled and said, "It has nothing to do with you. You were punished because of me. Naturally, I can't let you bear the responsibility alone."
"But …"
"Shuxin, come out!" Wei Zichen was interrupted by Huo Jibai.
The noisy classroom instantly quieted down because of Huo Jibai's words. Everyone turned around and looked curiously in the direction of the last table of Team One and Team Two.
They saw Huo Jibai get up and leave the classroom through the back door after he finished speaking.
Shuxin frowned slightly. She didn't want to have anything to do with Huo Jibai in case she got into trouble. But if she didn't go out, Shuxin didn't know what Huo Jibai would do. If he told others that his arm injury was because of her, his admirers would probably cut her into pieces. After some consideration, Shuxin got up and left.
