Ma Mingquan knew Fu Zhi's grandfather had just passed away. He waited until the class was over before passing a set of question papers to her. With a pair of swollen eyes, he said, "This is for you, Fu Zhi. Try your best to answer the questions, and if you don't understand anything, come and ask me. About your grandfather…"
Fu Zhi raised her head. Her skin looked particularly fair under the shower of the morning sunlight. She picked up the set of question papers and replied, "He passed away peacefully. He died of natural causes. I guess you should forget about it. It would be good for both you and him."
Ma Mingquan's eyes turned red around the rims again. "Say no more. I understand."
After saying that, he comforted Fu Zhi for a while longer by telling her that everything would be fine. Then, he turned around and walked out of the classroom, leaving Fu Zhi standing there in confusion.
