Chapter 36: Someone Can Do It
Editor: Atlas Studios
Su Jue was pretty upset and ran outside after putting down the script.
Lu Xinnuan yelled after him, but she could not catch up with him even at the hall entrance. She clenched her teeth and went to the office.
The few teachers surrounded Su Qinghe in the center and looked very grave.
Elder Su was Sui Yuan’s sponsor.
“I found out about it this afternoon. Her table partner said she had not come for lessons in a day,” said Sun Jiaying carefully.
Elder Su was a philanthropist in Wu City and was respected by the public.
He had sponsored quite a few children in poverty and gave them living allowances. He paid special attention to Sui Yuan, who had a pitiful background but was outstanding in her studies.
Su Qinghe held onto his walking stick in shock. “A day? None of the teachers realized she was gone?”
The teachers looked at each other awkwardly.
“Then, did she behave weirdly yesterday? What did she say and do?”
The teachers were put in a very difficult position. Sui Yuan’s presence was so weak that nobody noticed her.
During the silence, the office door was pushed open. When they realized it was Su Jue and Lu Xinnuan, they heaved a sigh of relief.
These two people could be considered their saviors in this situation.
After briefly explaining the situation, Su Jue quickly said that Sui Yuan was upset the day before as she did not get chosen to participate in the physics competition.
Sun Jiaying hurriedly explained that it was because Sui Yuan could not handle stress well.
Su Jue did not say anything but glanced at Lu Xinnuan. However, he did not mention the blackboard.
He remembered that it was Lu Xinnuan’s team’s turn to draw on the board, but for some reason, Sui Yuan replaced her.
He did not say it and Lu Xinnuan would definitely not either.
She only comforted the crowd gently and obediently, “Grandpa Su, Teachers, don’t be too worried. Perhaps Sui Yuan is just in a bad mood.”
Lu Xinnuan knew how to act in such situations and knew how to comfort them, which made the few teachers feel much better.
Elder Su sighed deeply. “Let’s not talk about this first. The most important thing now is to find her.”
It was already very stressful being in the twelfth grade and in addition to Sui Yuan’s bad mood, who could predict what would happen?
Su Jue was pretty rational and brought a group of people to the surveillance room.
After checking the surveillance footage of the night before and this morning, they found out that Sui Yuan had left the school, but they could not check the cameras outside the school.
The level head immediately contacted some people and reported the incident to the higher-ups. However, it might be too late by the time the police took action, as the reports had to be passed up level by level.
Furthermore, they would not care about it if they reported the incident now.
After keeping quiet for a while, Elder Su made a decision. “Someone can do it…”
The crowd was confused. Did Elder Su want to get the higher-ups over to settle this incident? That would be great!
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
“Continue checking the surveillance cameras, I’ll find a person.” Elder Su left the office trembling after he finished his sentence.
The rest did not dare to follow him, except for Su Jue and Lu Xinnuan.
The duo thought that Old Master was going to find some higher-ups, and Lu Xinnuan was still thinking that it would not be futile if she could meet some higher-ups while following Elder Su.
However, Old Master did not go anywhere else after the twists and turns, but he headed to the orientation event instead.
Lu Xinnuan was dazed. The pep rally venue was next door, but she followed Elder Su to the orientation. When she thought that Lu Mian was also present, she was extremely irritated.
Who could Grandpa Su find here?
No matter how irritated she was, she still followed the elder into the hall.
The first person she saw was the frivolous and arrogant Lu Mian sitting in the last row.
She neither sat properly nor raised her head. One look and Lu Xinnuan knew that she was using her phone.
Lu Xinnuan was pretty frustrated, but she saw Elder Su walk even faster towards Lu Mian.
