Chapter 380: If She Isn’t Coming To School, She Should Apply For Suspension
He Xiaoman frowned when Chen Yu interrupted her. She looked up at Chen Yu and caught sight of her solemn expression. Despite her displeasure, she did not want to lose her cool in front of an outsider, so she glanced at her foster daughter and left without saying a word.
After He Xiaoman left, the stern look on Chen Yu’s face disappeared. She walked up to Huo Yao and patted her shoulder as she comforted her. “Huo Yao, don’t be scared. You are in school now, so your foster mother wouldn’t dare to try anything funny.”
Huo Yao looked at Chen Yu. Her lips twitched when she noticed how protective this small and weak Chen Yu was being towards her.
She nodded her head obediently. “Thanks, Miss Chen.”
“Don’t mention it. If you have any problems, just let me know.” Chen Yu looked at her with her maternal love swelling inside.
It was too bad she had a son. If she had such a pretty daughter, she would laugh even in her sleep.
Huo Yao only smiled.
Chen Yu raised her hand to check her watch. “School’s almost over. Why don’t you head back?”
“Okay.”
The school bell rang shortly after Huo Yao got back to class. She packed the half-done test papers that the teacher handed out today before leaving with Meng Ying unhurriedly.
Huo Yao received a text message from her mother after she walked down the classroom block.
Her mother was picking her up today but had yet to arrive due to a traffic jam, so she told her to wait at the school gate.

After He Xiaoman left Chen Yu’s office, she headed over to Wei Mingzhe’s.
“Lu Xia didn’t come to school today.” Wei Mingzhe sat at his desk with a pen in hand and marked homework without even looking up.
Ever since the National Quiz Contest, Wei Mingzhe was removed as the Rocket Class homeroom teacher and even lost his title as an outstanding teacher. Hence, he gave He Xiaoman a particularly cold attitude.
Would he have ended up being a laughing stock amongst the teachers if not for all the trouble that the Lu family caused?
He Xiaoman detected Wei Mingzhe’s coldness and assumed that he was merely busy. When she heard her daughter did not attend school today, she could not help frowning and ask him. “Didn’t she come to school?”
Wei Mingzhe pursed his lips. “No, she didn’t. If she doesn’t want to come for classes, you should apply for temporary suspension.”
He Xiaoman glanced at him. “Mr. Wei, don’t you find it inappropriate to speak like this, considering you are her homeroom teacher?”
In any case, her daughter was among the top students in the level. But judging from his attitude, he looked like he could not wait for her daughter to leave the school.
Wei Mingzhe’s hand froze. He put down his pen and looked up before he said expressionlessly, “Thanks to the Lu family, I am no longer the Rocket Class homeroom teacher.”
He Xiaoman had not paid much attention to the events surrounding the National Quiz Contest. She was startled by his reaction and promptly assumed he was giving her an attitude because of the audio recording online. Hence, she said, “Erm... my daughter was a victim.”
Wei Mingzhe sneered coldly in his heart. A victim?
She framed someone and pretended she was innocent. Some kind of victim that was.
He pressed his forehead. This entire family surprisingly lacked morality.
Wei Mingzhe did not want to talk to He Xiaoman any longer, so he said impatiently, “Sorry. I’m busy, so I don’t have time to chat.”
He was clearly telling her to make herself scarce.
The atmosphere became incredibly awkward. He Xiaoman glanced at Wei Mingzhe as he immersed himself into correcting the homework books. Her expression remained frozen as she left angrily without saying anything.
