Seven years later...
"Teacher, I need to skip class today." A young girl asked. The girl had a voice that was like music under a summer breeze.
Her hair was as waves of pure earth, softly reflecting the light of the sun; each strand moving freely in an ocean born breeze, a compliment to her stillness. The girl had a nose like a cartoon character, or one drawn by a lazy artist at least. The bridge was so low-profile as to be barely there at all, her nose was a bump just above her dusky pink lips. There were no two ways about it, she was extremely cute.
The teacher blinked a few times at her words, "Eh? Why?"
"My dad is in hospital and my mom is with the police. I'll be going to grandma's place today."
The teacher was surprised and she ended up misunderstanding the little girl's words. Did some accident happen to her parents?
In the end, Ren Xiaozhi was given permission to go.
