In the midst of winter, the weather was bone-chillingly cold, standing outside could leave your feet painfully frozen. The principal couldn't bear to see the students suffer, and He Nan, who disliked fuss and bother, simply made a few official remarks before announcing the dismissal, allowing the students to carry the news home.
The hundreds of students scattered across the playground quickly dispersed, and the diminutive figure of Shen Mianmian was swiftly engulfed by the crowd.
He Nan didn't linger long; after being bid farewell by the principal and a few teachers, he drove out of the school gates.
Because there were many students around, he wasn't driving fast. Just as he was about to reach the main road, a student suddenly dashed out from the side of the road, blocking the car. He frowned, and immediately hit the brakes.
