Chapter 37 - Skipping class

Shi Weiwei: "Is something wrong?"

Ying Xuan: 'No nothing. I actually have to run back to the dorms."

Shi Weiwei: "Why?"

Ying Xuan: 'I forgot something.'

Shi Weiwei said as she began walking towards the dorms, "Okay then. Let's go."

Ying Xuan internally slapped her forehead. She had to come up with an excuse, because Xuan was sure Weiwei would never agree to skip classes. She was the typical bookworm.

And Ying Xuan had Chinese grammar and literature before lunch. She really did not want to go.

Seeing that she was not moving, Shi Weiwei asked, "Xuan, is something wrong?"

Ying Xuan shook her head and signed, 'Which class do you have?'

Shi Weiwei tilted her head, "Drama."

Ying Xuan: 'Then you should get going. If you're late, you will be in detention again."

Saying this, she began to push Shi Weiwei towards the main building.

Shi Weiwei said as she was being pushed by Ying Xuan, "You sure you're all right? You are acting weird."

Ying Xuan nodded her head and signed, 'I'm all right. Off you go.'

Shi Weiwei looked confused, but still went.

After she was left alone, Ying Xuan rushed towards the dorms.

Seeing her back in the room, Ying Xi cast a suspicious glance as she was heading out to class. Ying Xuan did not pay attention to her gaze as she began to rummage through her stuff.

Ying Xuan straightened up with her sketchbook and bad of paints and pencils and put on a pair of headphones around her neck.

Xuan waited for some time before sneaking out of the dorms and onto the roof of the main building. She sat on the rooftop, put on her headphones, and opened her sketchbook, smiling and humming to the song. She spent her time there till lunch happily drawing a painting first and then designing a beautiful evening gown.

Meanwhile.....

The first class had ended and Lu Zuan met up with Shi Weiwei. She asked, "Where's Xuan?"

Shi Weiwei: "Don't know. She had Chinese grammar for the first hour."

Lu Zuan: "She did? I did too. But I did not see her in the class."

Shi Weiwei: "What? Where could she be?"

As she said this, someone bumped into her and Weiwei almost fell on the ground.

Lu Zuan shouted as she attempted to steady her, "Hey. Are you blind? Watch where you are going."

A very tall and angry boy with dark black hair in a bun turned around.

Lu Zuan stared at him and said, "Don't think that just because you are a big shot. No, that's not right. Just because you are the son of a big shot, you can go around bullying innocent people."

Wei Jingyu was in a bad mood enough without being shouted at by Lu Zuan. He said darkly, "Tell your friend to look where she is going."

Lu Zuan: "She does. It is just the fact that she was not going anywhere. She was just standing while you came out of nowhere. Knocking into people here and there."

Wei Jingyu gritted his teeth, "Lu Zuan. I am not in the mood today."

Lu Zuan: "In the mood for what? I'm never in the mood to talk to you. So I would appreciate if you would not bump into people I'm standing with."
