“Remember to take some medicine.”
Lu Ning nodded and walked out from the counter with the coffee.
Huo Jinyan sat by the window. When Lu Ning walked over, he was gazing out of the window.
“Teacher Huo, here’s your coffee.”
Drinking coffee at this hour? He probably doesn’t intend to sleep tonight.
“Please enjoy.”
With that, she turned to leave, but Huo Jinyan called out to her.
“I saw your test paper.”
Lu Ning: “Huh?”
Huo Jinyan turned to look at her, his expression grave.
“How did you manage to avoid all the right answers?”
Lu Ning: “…”
Obviously, I avoided them on purpose.
Lu Ning replied humbly and earnestly, “I’ll work harder.”
Saying that, she turned around to leave. However, after two steps her body swayed and she almost fell; fortunately, she managed to hold on to a nearby chair in time.
Huo Jinyan subconsciously supported her.
Lu Ning steadied herself. “Thank you, Teacher Huo. I’ll go back to work.”
She turned and left. Huo Jinyan’s expression darkened as he watched her leave.
——————
“You go ahead. I’ll stay behind to lock up.”
Lu Ning nodded. “See you, stay safe.”
She carried her bag and turned to leave.
As soon as Lu Ning opened the door and came out, she saw Huo Jinyan leaning against his car by the roadside.
???
Lu Ning could not begin to comprehend what he wanted to do, but neither did she care to know. She circled past him and was about to leave.
“Lu Ning.”
However, Huo Jinyan still called out to her.
Lu Ning did not turn around, but stayed rooted where she stood.
Huo Jinyan scowled and strode over.
Before he could say anything, Lu Ning suddenly toppled forward like a puppet with its strings cut.
He quickly stepped forward and caught Lu Ning firmly in his arms.
“Lu Ning? Lu Ning?”
He called her name, but she was not responding at all.
He felt her forehead with his hand.
Chu Ting also hurried down from the car.
“What’s wrong with Miss Lu?!”
Huo Jinyan carried her in his arms. “Go to the hospital.”
Chu Ting quickly nodded and got into the car.
“Wait, wait! Who are you?! What happened to Little Ning? What happened to our Little Ning?”
Lu Zhi had just arrived to pick up Lu Ning, but when he saw Huo Jinyan carrying her he was flabbergasted. He shoved the electric scooter aside and dashed over.
Before Huo Jinyan could answer, Gu Zi and Gu Chen appeared from thin air.
Gu Chen touched her forehead to check her condition, then looked at Huo Jinyan. “Follow me.”
Then, he pulled Huo Jinyan into the school. Gu Zi and Lu Zhi followed behind, carrying the bag which Lu Ning had dropped on the ground.
They had just come out and were preparing to look for Lu Ning.
The door of the infirmary opened.
“Put her on the bed.”
Gu Chen went to get something and asked Huo Jinyan to lay her on the bed in the infirmary.
The few of them did not speak and took a step back, afraid of distracting Gu Chen.
Gu Chen picked up and examined something, then gave Lu Ning an intravenous jab.
He heaved a sigh of relief after giving her the injection.
He first looked at Lu Zhi. “It’s fine, Uncle. It’s nothing serious, she just caught a cold. She’ll be fine after two days of injections and some medicine.”
Lu Zhi nodded and also sighed in relief.
“Then, when will she wake up?”
“Probably at night. She’s just a little tired, she’ll wake up after some rest.”
...
Lu Zhi nodded. “Thank you, thank you!”
“You’re welcome.”
Lu Zhi looked at Huo Jinyan again. “Sir, thank you. About just now… I’m sorry.”
Huo Jinyan looked at him. “It’s fine. I’m Lu Ning’s form teacher.”
Lu Zhi was stunned.
Form teacher?
Do form teachers nowadays all look like this?
It’s hard to associate that face of his with his job title.
