What if you were targeted by a cool and aloof beauty?

"Ms. Jiuge! Ms. Jiuge!" Zhang Zhidong shouted loudly from outside the window.

After calling out about a dozen or twenty times, he realized that Jiu Ge might have gone deaf or temporarily lost her hearing from being in class, because she couldn't hear him at all.

Because he was worried about Jiuge, Zhang Zhidong thought for a moment and then floated in through the window.

Within seconds, he floated to Jiuge's side.

"Ms. Jiuge! Are you alright?" he asked with concern.

It might be heatstroke!

If the hearing loss is caused by heatstroke, leaving it untreated could lead to serious problems.

"Ms. Jiuge! Are you still conscious?"

Upon hearing Zhang Zhidong's shout, Jiuge stared straight ahead, her gaze not even focusing on him.

Seemingly worried that she might be mistaken for being unconscious, she even tucked her hair with her right hand.

"Ms. Jiuge! Have you seen that little brat?"

Zhang Zhidong felt that Jiu Ge probably didn't have heatstroke; she was just too engrossed in the sea of ​​knowledge to notice him.

“When I asked him to recite his lessons today, he suddenly ran away when I wasn’t paying attention. I thought he might come to your school to find you!” Zhang Zhidong continued to explain.

Jiuge's eyes remained unfocused, and her eyelids stopped moving.

"Lady Jiuge! Lady Jiuge!"

Zhang Zhidong waved his hand in front of Jiuge, but Jiuge still didn't react.

After thinking for a moment, he simply brought his entire face close to Jiuge's face, eye to eye.

Jiuge remained unresponsive, her expression and demeanor unchanged.

Perhaps because she was so focused on the lesson that she didn't even blink, her eyes became slightly misty.

"Wow, you're really that studious! Impressive! Madam, you must be the most brilliant student I've ever met in my life!"

Patting his chest, Zhang Zhidong turned his head away and stood in front of Jiuge, praising her sincerely.

"That's right! The future of our country depends on you! I can't give up either! Watch me catch that brat within half an hour!" Zhang Zhidong laughed heartily, then turned and floated out the window.

In an instant, the temperature in the classroom returned to normal.

The boys who were urgently trying to repair the air conditioner also breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiuge lowered her eyes, turned her back, and gently wiped away her tears with the back of her hand.

"Alas..."

They were so close, and their eyes were fixed on me...

How terrifying, so terrifying...

She let out a very soft sob, then turned her head back, her expression returning to its cold and composed state.

Chapter 23 Your Lunch

Looking at the college students sweating profusely on the playground, Zhang Zhidong felt melancholy.

Before his glory, he was also a person who loved sports very much.

Whether it's badminton, table tennis, basketball, soccer, billiards, hockey, softball, or shuttlecock, he's proficient in them all. No matter how late he gets off work, even if it's the middle of the night, he makes sure to get some exercise in the neighborhood!

Since that glorious moment, I haven't had the chance to train my body like this.

After staring blankly for a while, Zhang Zhidong looked at the little boy who was being punished by him and made to walk around the playground in circles under the sun. He was very satisfied, as if he saw his younger self.

After Mao Maotou went missing in the morning, his first thought was to go to An Chen's house.

After going there, Zhang Zhidong found no one there, but he was not discouraged and turned to go to the pseudo-capital university.

On the way, he passed by the place where his younger brother Zhang Zhidao usually worked. Seeing the increasing amount of sweat on Zhang Zhidao's back, Zhang Zhidong was very moved!

Regardless of the harsh winter or scorching summer, no matter how cruel the circumstances, they remain steadfast in their posts—that is what makes them public servants!

Police should act like this; only then will human society have a brighter future!

After nodding in satisfaction, he drifted all the way to the pseudo-capital university.

An Chen ignored her in the classroom, and Jiu Ge, engrossed in her studies, didn't even notice him.

Although these actions did not receive positive feedback, Zhang Zhidong was encouraged instead.

If even newly made living friends are working so hard, then someone who has already died must not lose!

He circled the entire pseudo-capital city at high speed several times, and within half an hour, he caught Mao Maotou, who had hidden away at home.

"Zhang Susu, I've already completed twenty laps." A blush crept onto Mao Maotou's dark face.

The sun is too strong; even a child spirit would have a hard time withstanding it.

Mao Maotou couldn't understand why Zhang Zhidong could stand so naturally in the sun.

"Good job! Will you still run around like that in the future?!" Zhang Zhidong patted Mao Mao's shoulder and gave him a thumbs up.

"No... I'm not running anymore."

Although he really wanted to shrink back and run away again, seeing Zhang Zhidong's unusual enthusiasm, Mao Maotou chickened out.

If I cause any more trouble, I wonder what kind of harmless expression this person will put on and how they'll try to mess with me...

For the first time in the past few days, Mao Mao Tou felt that it would be great if he had been reincarnated...

Unfortunately, he misses his mother...

"Zhang Susu, let's go back. The sun is too strong, and you're hot too." Looking at the sweat dripping down the necks of the older boys playing basketball in front of him, Mao Maotou felt a little sorry for them.

"I'm not hot!" Zhang Zhidong said boldly, hands on his hips, watching the male college students shooting hoops as if he were looking at his juniors.

“But they’re hot,” the little boy said, panting, pointing to the older boys in front of him.

"No matter how hot the weather is, it can't stop their burning hearts! This is the new generation of strength of our motherland!" Zhang Zhidong said, taking a few more steps forward.

“Susu…” Mao Mao’s eyes were filled with tears as he slowly backed away.

"I'll wait for Susu in the shade... I won't run away..."

He suddenly longed to see Sister Jiuge, to throw himself into her arms, and to be pressed tightly against her in the classroom...

Out of the corner of his eye, Zhang Zhidong glanced at the chubby boy hiding in the shadows, then continued to stare at the boys playing basketball.

"Oh my god, it's so hot!"

"It's not even noon yet, why is it so hot?"

"At first I felt fine, but suddenly I started sweating uncontrollably."

"I'm not playing anymore, my girlfriend will be disgusted by me because I'm all sweaty."

"Even at a time like this, he doesn't forget to show off his girlfriend, tsk tsk tsk."

"Come on, come on! Stop joking around, let's go buy water and ice cream, it's on me today."

After taking off their sweat-soaked short-sleeved shirts, the boys swarmed towards the supermarket.

Watching the boys' backs as they stopped playing, Zhang Zhidong sighed in frustration.

I just praised them for a little while, how come they can't stand being praised?

He turned around and walked towards Mao Maotou.

Mao Mao glanced at Zhang Zhidong warily and whispered, "Su Su, take me to see Sister Jiu Ge."

"No, Ms. Jiuge is focused on her studies right now, you can't disturb her!"

"Waaah..."

Mao Mao Tou burst into tears.

……

At 11:50 a.m., all the morning classes ended.

An Chen tidied his things, got up and went downstairs.

Around 10:30, he spotted Zhang Zhidong and Mao Maotou on the playground through the window.

Looking back at the playground now, there are no people or spirits left; they've probably all gone.

An Chen slowly walked out of the school gate and onto the next street, starting to walk back.

There weren't many students around, and the area was full of snack vendors.

After thinking about it, An Chen realized he only had two hours at noon, so he went to the beef pie stall on the right.

When he was paying, he noticed a beautiful and conspicuous figure behind him.

Jiuge, wearing white sandals and a white hat, walked forward. Her long black hair was tied up, and her light pink, flowing dress with a bow shimmered in the sunlight.

As she walked, she glanced around warily with a cold look in her eyes.

Even in this kind of weather where no one wants to stay outside, Jiuge still manages to attract a lot of attention.

After packing up the four beef patties he had bought, An Chen walked towards Jiu Ge.

"What are you doing?" he asked, handing two of the dishes to Jiuge.

"Alas..."

As if completely unaware that An Chen was approaching, Jiu Ge let out a brief sob.

"Your lunch." An Chen waved his hand.

Upon discovering it was An Chen, Jiu Ge breathed a sigh of relief and quickly took the beef patty.

"What are you doing here?" she asked in surprise, her face expressionless.

“I am also a student at the pseudo-capital university,” An Chen replied indifferently.

"Have you seen Mao Mao Tou?" Jiu Ge asked, taking a bite of her beef patty while glancing around.

Ever since Zhang Zhidong scared her like that, every cell in her body was telling her how dangerous her situation was.

That mischievous kid actually got lost!
