Lin Ci stopped looking and went back to her desk.

She noticed that Lu Ning had changed to a new school bag.

She also noticed the change in her mood.

However, she did not dare ask. Lu Ning rarely spoke about such things.

She needed some time to herself to process everything.

Now, everyone was doing their best to prepare for their final exams. Even after the bell rang, everyone was still in their seats.

Teacher Han urged them twice before packing up and preparing to go home.

It was already dark outside.

Most of them were picked up by their parents. Those whose parents did not come were brought back by close relatives.

Lu Ning had called back in advance, to tell them that she did not need Lu Zhi to pick her up since she was going back with Lin Ci.

Lin Ci sent her to her house and watched her enter the alley before she left. The snow on the road had yet to settle. Lu Ning stepped on the snow and listened to the sound. Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks and stood still.

She clutched her phone, hesitating to make a call. A person’s number appeared on the screen—Teacher Huo.

Lu Ning took a deep breath and looked at the screen. In the end, she locked the screen and put away her phone.

She was poor at handling such things. Like a coward, she only wanted to shirk into a hole and not think about it anymore.

However, just as she locked the screen, her phone suddenly rang. Lu Ning was shocked and took a look at the phone.

The caller ID showed that it was from—I Teacher Huo].

Lu Ning was startled.

It was as if he had telepathy. The call that she failed to make came through.

After being stunned for a while, Lu Ning picked up the phone.

Huo Jinyan’s voice came from the other end. “Where are you?”

Lu Ning was silent for a while. Listening to Huo Jinyan’s breathing, she asked her own question first, “Have you returned to the capital?”

Before Huo Jinyan could answer, she asked again, “Are you not coming back anymore?”

There was a hint of grievance in her voice, but she did not notice it.

Huo Jinyan was stunned for a moment and did not answer.

Lu Ning suddenly became nervous as she listened to his breathing from the phone.

After waiting for a long time, he did not answer. Lu Ning pursed her lips and her eyes turned red.

Her fingers trembled, and she really wanted to hang up.

In the silent night, the cold wind made her shiver uncontrollably.

Just as she was about to hang up, Huo Jinyan’s voice came from the other end.

“Ningning, turn around.”

Surprised, Lu Ning suddenly looked up and turned around.

The person standing at the entrance of the alley under the streetlamp, looking at her with his back against the light—who could it be except Huo Jinyan?

The two of them looked at each other from a distance. Their phones were still by their ears, and they did not move. They looked at each other with a smile.

After watching Lu Ning go back, Huo Jinyan slowly emerged from the alley.

He stood by the car and leaned against it, looking at Lu Nings room.

The room was still dark. After waiting for about three minutes, the lights in the room lit up.

Huo Jinyan could not hold back a smile. He got into the car and prepared to leave.

Just as she stood up, his phone suddenly rang.

Looking at the phone screen, Huo Jinyan was silent for a long time. In the end, just as the caller was about to hang up, he picked up the call. Even though he picked up the call, the other party was stunned.

For a moment, they could not react.

Until someone beside them reminded him.

“Old Master, he picked up! Young Master has picked up the phone! Please say something.”

Only then did Old Master Huo react and hurriedly said, “You brat! Why didn’t you say anything after answering the call?! Why didn’t you tell me when you were back? And you left without even seeing me?! Are you trying to anger me to death?!”

He had wanted to keep his emotions under control, but he could not help but lash out at him..
