After high school graduation, Wen Sheng returned to Jiazhou No.1 High School for the first time.
Apart from the trees on either side of the school path that were now more luxuriant than before and a newly refurbished golden sign at the entrance, everything else seemed to have hardly changed.
The security guard, a middle-aged uncle, immediately stopped them upon hearing they wanted to go in.
"Sorry, classes are in session now. Without the principal's approval, no one can enter," he said.
Wen Sheng remembered that during her time as a student, Jiazhou No.1 High School was renowned for its strict management. They didn't easily allow strangers in during classes, not even parents.
Unless one had a pass signed by the principal himself.
Waiting for approval to come through was like waiting for cooked dishes to go cold.
Fu Yanlin pulled Wen Sheng aside, a smile curling up at the corner of his mouth, "Come on, I'll take you through the secret passage."
