Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Song Fan decided to return to the Song Corporation, making it impossible for her to continue teaching at the school. To express her apologies, she brought her resignation letter to the principal’s office.
The principal carefully examined the resignation letter and couldn’t help but feel regret, “Ms. Song, are you not considering continuing to teach? Even if it’s just an honorary position, it would be great!”
He was well aware of Song Fan’s influence, especially in academic circles. If Song Fan’s identity in academia was revealed one day, parents would undoubtedly be eager to send their children to the school, knowing that such a formidable teacher was there.
However, Song Fan shook her head. “I’m sorry, but you know my situation. I’m afraid I’ll return to the Song Corporation in the future, so I can’t continue teaching. However, I’ve already contacted a teacher who can take over for me, and I’ll provide you with his contact information.”
Upon hearing that there was another teacher to take over, the principal expressed his happiness, “Good, you’re considerate. It’s troublesome for you, Ms. Song.”
Since it was recommended by Song Fan, the replacement teacher must be an outstanding figure. As long as the teaching staff improved, student enrollment would naturally not be a problem.
After leaving the principal’s office, she walked in the school corridor. Upon hearing someone address her as “Ms. Song,” Song Fan felt a bit sentimental.
Someone lightly tapped her on the shoulder from behind, accompanied by a slight cough. “Sister Song Fan, are you back to teach?”
Upon turning around, Song Fan saw Xiaoxiao, looking somewhat pale, but she seemed to be in good spirits. Song Fan asked with concern, “Xiao Xiao, how is your health? Are you adapting well to school?”
“The school is excellent. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have had the chance to attend such a good school. Thank you.” After saying these words, Xiao Xiao coughed a few times, struggling a bit.
“I’ve prescribed medicine for you, make sure to take it. Medication will help your body recover, understand?” Song Fan patted her back, speaking with deep sincerity, “I won’t be teaching at the school anymore, but if you have any issues, you can call me or go directly to my fourth brother, Song Kai. You should know him, right?”
Although Xiao Xiao was somewhat surprised, she didn’t ask why. Instead, she nodded a bit awkwardly.
She had heard about Song Kai’s “heroic deeds,” but it seemed that they were not necessarily good things. Fortunately, Song Kai did not bully people, and sometimes he even stood up for his classmates. In recent times, his reputation at school has improved quite a bit.
However, Song Fan was unaware of these details. She had other matters to attend to during her visit to the school; she wasn’t just resigning.
She brought Xiao Xiao to a corner on the second floor and took out photos from her phone. “Do you recognize this woman?”
She distinctly felt Xiao Xiao’s breath pause for a moment and then relax. Xiao
Xiao shook her head, saying, “I don’t know her.”
“Really?” Song Fan was somewhat skeptical, feeling that Xiao Xiao had hidden something. “I find this person very familiar, but I can’t remember who she is.
You haven’t lost your memory. Perhaps you’ve met her?”
Upon lowering her head and seemingly lost in thought, Xiaoxiao shook her head vigorously, affirmatively stating, “Sister Song Fan, I don’t know her. Just now, it seemed like she resembled someone I know, but upon closer inspection, she’s quite different from the person I know.”
Something flashed through Song Fan’s mind. She then asked, “So, the person you mentioned earlier is someone we both knew from those two years, right? And she knew about my injured shoulder?”
“Who knows about your injured shoulder?” Xiao Xiao suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with shock. Her body even trembled slightly, and then, in a trembling voice, she asked, “Have you seen them? Have they come to the country? To A City?”
Upon seeing the teardrops in her eyes, Song Fan didn’t soften. She knew that in those two years, they had experienced something very unpleasant. That might be why Xiao Xiao had lost her memory and consistently avoided Song Fan’s questions. This time, Xiao Xiao had given out the most information.
Song Fan quickly asked softly, “Xiao Xiao, who are ‘they’? Tell me, okay? I can protect you, don’t be afraid.”
The bell for class rang, and Xiao Xiao hurriedly said to her, “I have to go to class. Sister Song Fan, I’m leaving.”
Upon watching her leave like she was fleeing, Song Fan became more convinced that Xiao Xiao must know Li Lan!
