Chapter 46 - 56
"Alright, Xiao Xiao, I think you’re really not in a good state. Are you a masochist by nature?" An Ran said and then turned away from Xiao Xiao, her eyes inadvertently falling on Mu Xingfeng.
Is that really the case? Actually, she only thought that Mu Xingfeng was too decisive at first, punishing her without any investigation. But later, she also felt that something was odd.
Mu Xingfeng turned his head and saw the little girl staring at him dazedly, her eyes filled with confusion. He glanced at her without leaving any trace, then looked away.
An Ran suddenly met Mu Xingfeng’s cold eyes, frightened, she averted her gaze and shook her head in frustration.
What was she thinking? How could Mu Xingfeng possibly stand up for her? It had already been clearly stated that day, each would go their own way. Xiao Xiao, not knowing the inside story, developed delusions, how could she herself get confused?
Sure enough, in the afternoon, An Ran was punished again because during the emergency assembly at nap time, her hair tie was missing.
She clearly remembered placing it beside her pillow before she slept, but when she woke up, it was gone. The most unbelievable thing was that all her spare hair ties were also missing.
She had clearly put them in the side pocket of her backpack, and Xiao Xiao had short hair. It was as if the other classmates had prearranged it, all bowing their heads, organizing their things. When she asked two classmates, they both said they only had one hair tie. An Ran didn’t have time to look more carefully, so she had to run to the courtyard with the others to gather.
Mu Xingfeng’s cold eyes swept across the team, finally landing on An Ran.
It was his first time seeing An Ran with her hair down. The girl’s smooth long hair cascading over her shoulders added a touch of delicate charm, but she felt a bit uneasy under his gaze.
