Luo Chao saw Jiang Yuanyuan looking so innocent, and he couldn't help but laugh. If he was injured, how could he still play in the water with this little girl?
So he pretended to be deep and said, "No injuries, just a bit of an accident."
"What accident?" Jiang Yuanyuan stared with her apricot eyes at Luo Chao, her heart pounding intensely in her chest. She didn't know why, but the past couple of days, she felt like her feelings had started to change. Seeing Luo Chao was annoying, but not seeing him made her anxious, and hearing that Luo Chao was in danger made her worry uncontrollably.
Luo Chao had no idea about Jiang Yuanyuan's little thoughts. He just exaggerated the seriousness to make her nervous wave after wave.
"If you had told earlier, I wouldn't have kicked you!" Jiang Yuanyuan felt she had overreacted, but still didn't want to show weakness to Luo Chao, so she pouted and said moodily.
Luo Chao chuckled, thinking it was good that this little madam wasn't upset with him. He then said, "It's nothing major anyway. No need to make you worry over nothing. Tell , while I wasn't here, who was the blind one that offended you?"
Jiang Yuanyuan felt a small flicker of happiness at Luo Chao's concern and replied, "It's nothing important really. Do you know Gao Shilong is Director Gao's son?"
Luo Chao nodded and said, "The unrefined English teacher, right?"
Jiang Yuanyuan nodded, saying, "I don't know why, but today Gao Shilong confessed to . He said I should consider it carefully and even forced to have lunch with him. I couldn't lose my temper and felt really disgusted."
Upon hearing this, Luo Chao was montarily stunned, then quickly asked, "Are you saying that jerk Gao Shilong confessed to you? Did he do anything to you?"
Jiang Yuanyuan gave Luo Chao a sideways look. He really knew how to bring up irrelevant things; she'd already said it once, and he still repeated it. So she shook her head and said, "He didn't do anything excessive, just tried to hold my hand, but I avoided it."
Luo Chao nodded, seriously saying, "As long as he didn't take advantage of you, that's good. Tonight I'll report the situation to Uncle Jiang and see how to handle it."
Jiang Yuanyuan also nodded and then frowned, asking, "How are we supposed to go back to the classroom like this?"
Luo Chao realized this was indeed a problem. They were both soaking wet; going back would definitely be uncomfortable. A young lady with a temper like Jiang Yuanyuan's certainly wouldn't return to self-study while wet.
Luo Chao glanced again at the drenched Jiang Yuanyuan. Her school uniform clung to her body, revealing her full figure, making it hard to go back to the classroom. He wondered if this counted as getting wet with his employer.
"Hey! Aren't you thinking of an idea?" Jiang Yuanyuan was unsure what Luo Chao was dazing about; feeling embarrassed with her clothes sticking so tightly, it was an obvious school uniform temptation!
Snapped back to reality by Jiang Yuanyuan, Luo Chao lightly coughed and said, "Uh, maybe we should just go ho. Missing one self-study session isn't a big deal, I'll go get a leave note and grab our bags."
"What about ?" Jiang Yuanyuan asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, I'll ask Li Dacheng to bring out so dry clothes for you."
With that, Luo Chao ran towards the teaching building, thinking he had to solve this quickly to prevent the little girl from throwing a tantrum again.
Luo Chao hurried back to the classroom at the greatest speed. Gao Xiangyu was conducting a general knowledge session at the podium for the class.
When Luo Chao pushed open the door, Gao Xiangyu frowned and snapped, "Why don't you know how to knock?"
"Sorry, teacher, it's urgent. I need to request a leave of absence," Luo Chao stood there dripping wet. Gao Xiangyu originally wanted to scold Luo Chao, but seeing his state, he hesitated. Damn, what trouble did this kid cause now?!
"What happened to you? Where's Jiang Yuanyuan?!" Gao Xiangyu felt this year wasn't going well at all. Otherwise, how could he be transferred with a Luo Chao, who caused issues every ti?
"Well, it's like this, Jiang Yuanyuan fell into the lake, and I jumped in to save her, so we both need a leave to go ho," Luo Chao recounted, omitting the reason Jiang Yuanyuan fell into the lake.
Before Gao Xiangyu could respond, Chen Xiaoqi stood up from her seat in worry and asked, "Is Yuanyuan okay?"
Luo Chao shook his head and told Chen Xiaoqi, "Pack up."
He didn't wait for Gao Xiangyu to react; he walked to his seat, grabbed his backpack, and headed for the door.
Chen Xiaoqi also didn't pay much attention to Gao Xiangyu, hurriedly stuffing both hers and Jiang Yuanyuan's bags, and followed Luo Chao out of the classroom.
Gao Xiangyu, struggling to catch his breath, watched them leave the classroom and shouted, "I haven't granted your leave! This is outrageous!"
At this mont, Luo Chao and Chen Xiaoqi were already outside. Chen Xiaoqi caught up with Luo Chao and asked, "Where is Yuanyuan now?"
Luo Chao rembered he needed to head to Li Dacheng's class to borrow a coat for Jiang Yuanyuan; otherwise, going back wet would definitely make her sick.
He turned to Chen Xiaoqi, saying, "I'll grab a coat for Yuanyuan, you head to the lake first and keep an eye on her."
Saying that, he left Chen Xiaoqi and went to Li Dacheng's class. After knocking and seeing Li Dacheng, Li Dacheng stepped out without a word.
"What's up? Why'd you suddenly co to ?" Li Dacheng thought it might be about Haley's matter that needed his testimony, and asked seriously, but was startled seeing Luo Chao drenched head to toe, asking, "Damn, Luo Chao, was your last class swimming?"
Luo Chao pointed at Li Dacheng's school uniform, saying, "Cut the crap, lend your jacket. I need to leave early today to change at ho."
Li Dacheng pulled the jacket off himself, intending to ask what happened, but Luo Chao was already heading towards the stairs.
Back to Jiang Yuanyuan's side, as soon as Luo Chao left, Gao Shilong appeared from nowhere, seeing Jiang Yuanyuan shivering alone by the lake. He walked over with concern, taking off his jacket and draping it over Jiang Yuanyuan.
Jiang Yuanyuan was startled, turning to see Gao Shilong and thinking of the lunch incident, making her feel uneasy again. She said irritably, "Mr. Gao, what are you doing here? I don't need a jacket."
Gao Shilong ignored her, squatting in front of Jiang Yuanyuan, with a fawning smile, he said, "You must wear it, your body is so fragile. What if you catch a cold?"
Saying this, he placed his hand on Jiang Yuanyuan's shoulder, applying a slight pressure, his smile carrying a hint of ambiguity.
Jiang Yuanyuan froze. As Gao Shilong's hand pressed her shoulder, it felt like nurous worms were wriggling on her skin, sending a shiver through her. She tried to stand up but didn't dare get up fully since she was missing buttons on her top. Even with Luo Chao's jacket, it was soaked and would certainly reveal her pink **, so she struggled and said, "Mr. Gao, please let go of , I don't need your jacket."
