"No, I want to stay until the end and leave with you." Luo Mengmeng held tightly onto him.
She knew he would be the last one to leave in order to maintain order, so she wanted to be with him.
"Alright then, darling." Gu Zhihan didn’t insist, his gaze shifting straight to the next one, "Those at the back, you go first."
One by one, the students held their breath, squatting and hopping across like frogs.
Halfway across, a girl stumbled, her half-squat body suddenly tipping forward with a cry of alarm.
The girl unfortunately fell to the ground.
Luo Mengmeng and the others were momentarily stunned, then instinctively looked towards the direction of the security office.
They didn’t know if such a loud disturbance had caught the guards’ attention.
The moment the school guards heard a noise outside, they hurriedly tried to move past Lu Zichen, "Student, I can’t chat with you anymore, there seems to be some noise outside, I need to check it out."
Lu Zichen quickly stopped him, jokingly saying, "What noise? I didn’t catch any, you must have heard wrong, come on, don’t bother checking, let’s continue shooting the breeze..."
"No, really, I can’t." The school guard knew his responsibility was critical and couldn’t afford to be lax, hurriedly pushing Lu Zichen away.
And then, Luo Mengmeng and dozens of other students were caught red-handed by the school guards.
Someone shouted, and Luo Mengmeng felt Gu Zhihan grasp her hand, then he immediately started running outside with her.
The other students quickly followed suit.
Since they had already been discovered, so be it.
The thought that there safety in numbers emboldened everyone to dash frantically through the school towards the direction of the emergency center.
"Stop, stop all of you! Are you little bunnies planning a rebellion?" Seeing the massive scene of students cutting class, the school guard’s heart disease almost recurred on the spot, and after stamping his foot, he hastily chased after them.
Seeing the school guard approaching, everyone ran even harder.
"Run fast! I’ll hold off the school guard!" Lu Zichen, determined to keep the others from being caught, heroically sacrificed himself, rushing forward and tightly embracing the school guard to buy everyone else time.
So, passersby on the street witnessed a bizarre scene.
A young man tightly hugging a school guard.
A group of students in blue and white uniforms running wildly in the streets as if their mothers were calling them home for dinner.
The morning sunshine was dazzlingly bright, its rays shining on the youthful and energetic faces of these young people, illuminating the embarrassed gleam of tears on their cheeks, and the gentle breeze raised by their running softly blowing their bangs.
The sycamore trees on the old street were lush and verdant.
Gu Zhihan was tightly holding Luo Mengmeng’s hand, racing freely on the street with the others.
Finally, they didn’t have to run much longer before they arrived at the emergency center.
"Excuse me, nurse, do you know where the middle-aged female teacher who just fainted from coughing up blood is being treated?" Mengmeng and a few others quickly approached the nurse’s station to ask.
"Sorry, all of our emergencies are patients with the symptoms you described, so I’m not sure exactly who you are talking about."
"Let’s find her ourselves."
Luo Mengmeng and the others hurriedly came and then hurried away, checking each emergency room.
Finally, in emergency room 13, they saw their homeroom teacher.
She was lying on the bed, her face pale and eyes tightly closed, seemingly still unconscious.
