Fortunately, there is a water pipe in the garden, making watering and such quite convenient. After planting the seedlings and watering them, they took the children home. Soon after they got home, Jiang Xue returned from work. Seeing Jiang Xue come back, the elderly folks were very happy and shared the busy events of the day with her.
Seeing the elderly folks in such a good mood, Jiang Xue’s mood lifted as well. It seems people really need to keep busy. With things to do, one doesn’t overthink, and having things to do gives people hope and energy.
In this way, Jiang Xue was reassured. As for Little Reunion getting a bump during the day, Jiang Xue didn’t worry too much about it. Kids are always going to have little accidents. Nonetheless, when it was time for bed, Jiang Xue checked on Little Reunion.
After confirming he was okay, she was completely relieved.
The next day, as usual, Jiang Xue went to work after breakfast. As for school, she had already taken a leave of absence. Just as she got to the company, the phone rang.
It was another call from Principal Huang. Thinking it might be Mr. Huang missing her, Jiang Xue answered with a smile, "Principal, you’re calling because the old man misses me again, right?"
Unexpectedly, Principal Huang solemnly replied, "It’s not the old man. Someone has come to the school looking for you. I can’t explain it over the phone, you better come to the school."
Hearing this, Jiang Xue frowned, sensing that Principal Huang seemed to be worried about something.
After hanging up, Jiang Xue took a leave from the company and headed to Nan University.
Arriving at Nan University, Jiang Xue parked her car and went straight to Principal Huang’s office.
At that moment, two guests were in Principal Huang’s office, and he was talking with them. Had Jiang Xue been there, she would have immediately recognized them as the Mr. Lan and Ah Huan she met on the train returning to Xu City.
"Principal Huang, isn’t Jiang Xue a student at your school? How come she isn’t here yet? This is really not showing you any respect, is it?"
Just as Jiang Xue reached the door of the principal’s office, she heard an impatient voice. She was about to announce her presence when Principal Huang said, "Young Master Jun, you’ve misunderstood. Jiang Xue doesn’t disrespect me, and indeed, she is a student at Nan University. However, her situation is quite special, and she seldom comes to school for classes."
"What, your school allows students such privileges? Not attending classes? How does she handle exams then? What if she scores zero, how will she graduate?"
Unable to listen anymore, Jiang Xue interrupted before Principal Huang could respond with a shout: "Report!"
Recognizing Jiang Xue’s voice, Principal Huang’s face lit up with pleasure, and he said, "Come in!"
Jiang Xue pushed open the door to the principal’s office and immediately recognized the two people sitting on the sofa drinking tea. She instantly realized who they were, and her expression showed a trace of understanding. No wonder she found that voice familiar while she was outside.
It turned out they were old acquaintances.
"Principal!"
"Jiang Xue, you’re here!" Seeing Jiang Xue, Ah Huan immediately switched to a smiling face and greeted her warmly, completely different from the earlier sarcastic tone.
"Mr. Lan, Ah Huan, what brings you here?" Jiang Xue looked at them with surprise. She had already suppressed the Gu Poison in the old man before. Could it have flared up early?
