Chapter 119: Meng Ran’s Full Marks
Meng Ran was also very shocked at this moment. She did not know how she felt when she returned to the class. When she sat down, the test papers had already been handed out.
Her eyes welled up with tears when she saw the 100 marks in front of her.
Without stopping to rest, Meng Ran ran out of the classroom. Under the osmanthus tree in front of the school building, she found Mo Zhu, who was leaning against the tree trunk and quietly playing with her phone. She quickly ran a few steps and suddenly hugged the girl.
“What’s wrong?” Mo Zhu was caught off guard by Meng Ran’s strong hug, and the inertia made her take two steps back unconsciously.
“Boohoo, Sister Mo, do you know how many marks I got for the physics examination this time?” Meng Ran sounded like she was about to cry from excitement.
Mo Zhu patted the girl’s back gently and said lightly, “I know. When Teacher Duan asked me to go to the physics group this morning, I took a look at your test paper. You did well.”
Although Mo Zhu’s tone was very calm, to Meng Ran, this was not a small matter. The perfect score she had attained this time brought the girl a lot of confidence and courage.
She stood up and grabbed Mo Zhu’s hand. An idea came to Meng Ran and she said, “Sister Mo! You’re so amazing. Can you teach me in the other subjects too? I want to work hard and enter Beijing University!”
When Mo Zhu heard Meng Ran’s words, she smiled until her eyes secretly curved. “Sure, if you want to get into Beijing University, you have to work harder!”
On Saturday, when Mr. Qi returned from his business trip and found out that Class Eight did not cheat, he unwillingly arranged the names of the students in Class Eight on the list for the visit to the Technological Museum.
Early Monday morning, as soon as the students of Class Eight entered the school, they saw the notice to visit the Technology Museum. They stared at the list for a long time until they found the names of every student in Class Eight. Then, everyone entered the class and sat down to prepare for class.
After careful deliberation with the Technological Museum, the time for the third-year students to visit the Technological Museum was set to be Wednesday. Before school ended today, the form teacher, Li Xiao, seriously reminded each student about the things to take note of after entering the Technological Museum.
After school in the evening, Mo Zhu still took Uncle Zhang’s car back to the Huo residence as usual.
After getting into the car, Mo Zhu’s sharp eyes noticed that Xu Huan was there. With Xu Huan around, they continued to talk and laugh along the way. It was only when the car stopped at the entrance of a small restaurant that Mo Zhu opened the door and got out of the car with a puzzled expression.
“Why are we eating outside today?” Mo Zhu closed the car door casually and looked up at Xu Huan, who was also getting out of the car.
“Little Bamboo, Brother Huo’s injuries are more or less healed. From his tone, it seems like he wants to talk to you about something later, so the two of us decided to come out and eat together.” Xu Huan’s tone was very sincere.
Hearing Xu Huan’s reasonable explanation, Mo Zhu didn’t probe any further. Since it was Huo Xuan’s intention, there was no harm in eating here.
The two of them quickly found a private room under the lead of a waiter. Huo Xuan had already ordered and was waiting for them.
Not long later, the dishes were all served. Mo Zhu did not stand on ceremony. She picked up her chopsticks and started to scoop all her favorite dishes into the bowl.
Because of Class Eight’s complete victory, Mo Zhu had been in a very good mood the past two days. It just so happened that Huo Xuan and Xu Huan were both here today. An idea came to her mind as she chewed the food in her mouth and asked, “Does this little restaurant have good wine? I want to order a bottle now.”
Huo Xuan looked up at Mo Zhu in surprise. “Can we order red wine? Girls should drink less white wine.”
He waved his hand to invite the waiter over. A few minutes later, the red wine was served on the table. Mo Zhu took the glass from Huo Xuan and filled it for herself and Xu Huan. Seeing that Huo Xuan was also eagerly handing the glass over, she frowned coldly. “Your injuries have just healed a little. Don’t drink alcohol for the time being.”
“I just want to drink a little.” Huo Xuan raised his eyebrows nonchalantly.
“No, you can’t touch it at all. Last time, the doctor mentioned that you have to take note not to drink alcohol. As a patient, you have to listen to the doctor.” Mo Zhu turned around and placed the bottle on the table in the private room while she started lecturing Huo Xuan wholeheartedly.
Huo Xuan pursed his lips and could only nod obediently.
As if he had recalled something, Xu Huan took the wine glass that Mo Zhu had passed to him from the dining table. He turned to Huo Xuan with a puzzled expression and asked, “Brother Huo, didn’t you say that you had something to discuss with Little Bamboo? What’s up? Can I listen?”
When Huo Xuan heard this, he hesitated for a moment before looking up and meeting Xu Huan’s gaze. “Let’s talk about this after dinner. I’m afraid the two of you won’t be able to eat if I tell you now.”
After saying this, Mo Zhu and Xu Huan started to eat seriously. After a moment of silence, when the three of them were almost done eating, Xu Huan stood up and walked to the front desk to settle the bill.
After returning to the car, Huo Xuan gently placed his hand on the car window. After Mo Zhu and Xu Huan had both sat in the car, he said unhurriedly, “There’s news from the hospital that I can visit Feng Yu these two days. I want to go now. Do the two of you have any objections?”
When these words came out of Huo Xuan’s mouth, it was like a bomb that instantly stunned Mo Zhu. She raised her head in a daze and stared at the man’s face. “What do you mean? Are we going to see Feng Yu now?”
