Looking for Lu Sheng again!
The people in the class were already numb to it, suddenly feeling that being ordinary might not be such a bad thing after all.
At least they wouldn’t be framed for cheating for no reason, nor would they be suddenly taken away by the principal in the middle of class, completely uncertain whether the visitor had good or bad intentions.
Lu Sheng didn’t know what was going on either.
Apart from seeing the principal giving a speech from a distance at the opening ceremony, it was her first time being so close to the principal in person.
However, she truly had absolutely no interaction with the principal of Shengjing.
Why would the principal suddenly come to the class to find her, claiming it was important?
Even though she had no idea what the principal was referring to, Lu Sheng still stood up from her seat and said calmly and politely, "Hello, Principal. I am Lu Sheng."
As soon as Lu Sheng stood up, the principal at the door immediately turned to look at her, seeming to size her up thoroughly.
The tone was rather kind and affable.
"So you are Lu Sheng. I’ve heard that you topped the special enrollment exam this time. You’re indeed a very excellent student."
"In that case, you and your homeroom teacher come to my office now. Someone has come to the school specifically to see you, waiting in the office."
—Someone came specifically to find her and was waiting in the principal’s office for her?
Lu Sheng furrowed her brow imperceptibly but did not show any confusion on her face; she just nodded and said, "Alright, Principal, I will accompany you."
So, under the curious gaze of her classmates, Lu Sheng followed behind Zhou Wu and left the classroom together with him.
The class hadn’t gotten to the bottom of what had happened with Huo Yu coming back from the police station, and now a new mystery arose.
Who exactly had come to find Lu Sheng at the school, to have their rarely-seen principal personally come to find her?
The visitor must hold quite a significant status.
But what had happened with Huo Yu was something they were completely clueless about, let alone now that Lu Sheng had left directly with the homeroom teacher and the principal.
They were even less likely to find out who was looking for Lu Sheng.
When the people in the class heard the principal and Zhou Wu speaking through the speakers, they all gasped in astonishment.
The homeroom teacher forgot to turn off the mic!
Since the classrooms in Shengjing are quite large, to ensure every student can hear clearly during lessons, the teachers have to shout, which is really straining on their vocal cords.
Therefore, the school provides every teacher with a miniature wireless microphone for teaching.
Teachers generally clip them on their collars so that even if they speak softly, their voice can be transmitted clearly through the speakers around the classroom.
Just like now, everyone in the class could hear the conversation between the homeroom teacher and the principal while they were on their way to the office.
Seeing this, A-Class’ monitor, Wang Sisi, took a deep breath and stood up.
"...This won’t do, I need to let the teacher know!"
Originally, Lu Qianrou was the monitor of A-Class, but after she left, Zhou Wu assigned this duty to the student who was also the committee member for academics.
This monitor cum academic committee member, Wang Sisi, was always serious and reliable with her duties and held the trust of Zhou Wu and all the subject teachers.
If the homeroom teacher forgot to turn off the microphone, it meant that whatever he, the principal, Lu Sheng, or the person waiting for Lu Sheng in the office would say—
All the students in the class could hear it clearly through the microphone.
This was no trivial matter!
If there was anything that they weren’t supposed to hear, wouldn’t it lead to trouble?
Wang Sisi was ready to go and remind the homeroom teacher to turn off the microphone.
But just as she was about to stand up, she was stopped by a male student who always enjoyed watching the drama unfold.
"Don’t tell them, monitor!"
"Aren’t you curious about who came to find Lu Sheng, someone who could even bring our honorable principal over in person?"
This was exactly what the others in the class were thinking.
Who wouldn’t be curious? As soon as they heard that the homeroom teacher had left the mic on, everyone instantly became more alert.
But Wang Sisi, being responsible and upright, said firmly, "I’m not curious. If I don’t go and remind the teacher and something happens..."
"What could possibly happen? It’s broad daylight, and they’re in the principal’s office surrounded by people. What could be discussed that shouldn’t be seen or heard by us?"
"Just relax, monitor. If there really is an issue, you can just say you were going to remind the teacher, but I stopped you. Okay?"
Hearing what the boy said and seeing the earnest eyes of the other students, Wang Sisi hesitated for a moment.
In the end, she could only say, "...Alright then, but if there really is something we shouldn’t hear, I’ll go to the principal’s office and remind them right away."
"Sure sure, Monitor. Just take it easy and have a seat!"
The boy directly pushed Wang Sisi back into her chair and briskly returned to his own seat.
Seeing this, everyone in the class also sat up straight, their eyes gleaming.
Now things had taken an interesting turn. They had initially been able only to speculate, without arriving at any conclusions.
But now, they could listen in to the live conversation remotely.
Forget about finding out who came to see Lu Sheng; they might even find out what the visit was about.
Lan Yu, Lu Youming, Huo Yu, and Han Jing exchanged glances and couldn’t help frowning slightly.
Under the current circumstances, anyone who went out to remind would become the enemy of the whole class.
But if it really involved Lu Sheng’s privacy, they were prepared to destroy the classroom’s speakers—each taking one.
After all, they could afford to compensate for them.
Soon, there was the sound of the office door opening through the speakers.
Everyone perked up, all ears to the sound coming from the speaker. They wanted to know who was waiting for Lu Sheng in the office.
