Wei Anning arrived at the classroom just as the bell for class rang. She had barely sat down at her desk when the professor entered in step with the chime. She patted her chest, thankful that she was a second early; otherwise, she would have been doomed.
She quickly took out her textbook and listened as the professor called the roll. When her name was called, she responded with an "Here." Then the professor called Jiang Yang's name, and after a few seconds of waiting and realizing no one answered, she turned her head to see that the seat beside her was empty – Jiang Yang hadn't come to class.
Jiang Yang had left with a pale face last night, but she hadn't taken it to heart. Had he taken a sick leave from class today?
As she was pondering this, Yan Nanfei, sitting several rows in front of her, stood up and requested a sick leave for Jiang Yang from the professor. The professor wasn't actually heartless; he nodded and allowed Yan Nanfei to sit down.
