"What are you blanking out for? Lead the way." Song Mo Ran's voice pierced my ears and I came back to my senses. I jogged in front of Song Mo Ran.

When I was close to my office, the bell rang. Gradually, there were more and more people. Song Mo Ran's suit was exceptionally eye-catching amongst the school uniform group. Coupled with his handsome face, I caught his glow.

"Isn't that Class 1's Lin Xiaoxiao?"

"Who?"

"The one whose sister was a prostitute."

I closed my eyes and quickened my pace, wanting only to get to the office as quickly as possible, when a warm hand caught me.

Turning around, it was Song Mo Ran.

Apparently, he heard those discussions too. He frowned slightly and looked straight at me, his eyes filled with gentleness. I don't know why, but when I look into his eyes, my flustered heart immediately calms down a lot.

"Don't panic."

Suddenly, an ear-piercing voice rang out: "Yo, Lin Xiaoxiao, it's fine as long as you seduce a man outside the school, but why did you bring him into the school?"

I instantly became the focus of everyone's attention. Looking towards the source of the voice, I bumped into the person I least wanted to see, Cheng Shuyun.

"I told you she was a bastard, you all saw it, right? This is the man that kept her. Otherwise, do you think that by selling her out, Lin Xiaoxiao's elder sister would be able to help her go to school?"

Cheng Shuyun's every word made me feel embarrassed, and a sense of humiliation spread out from my heart. Just as I was stunned on the spot, Song Mo Ran directly walked towards Cheng Shuyun.

"Who are you calling a bastard?"

Even though I could only see his back, I could feel how powerful Song Mo Ran's aura was. Cheng Shuyun was scared silly by Song Mo Ran's words and stood rooted to the spot, unable to utter a word for a long time.

Song Mo Ran leaned over and whispered something into Cheng Shuyun's ear. Cheng Shuyun's eyes gradually became lifeless as the cup in his hand fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

At this moment, the bell for class rang. Everyone had seen enough fun, so they all scattered.

"Xiao-Xiao, let's go." Song Mo Ran said faintly.

I followed behind Song Mo Ran as I kept thinking about what Song Mo Ran said to Cheng Shuyun. Unknowingly, we arrived at the entrance of the office.

Just as I was about to knock on the door and shout for the report, Song Mo Ran walked in.

Old man Jia noticed him and then saw me behind Song Mo Ran. He sized Song Mo Ran up and down and said, "You are Lin Xiaoxiao's parents?"

Song Mo Ran lightly nodded his head as old man Jia's expression instantly turned serious.

"You're his?"

"Brother-in-law."

"In that case, let me talk to you about Lin Xiaoxiao." "You said that Lin Xiaoxiao skipped two classes. Right now, it is the crucial period of her third year, and she has always been this careless. If she doesn't focus on her studies, how would she even get into university …"

I lowered my head and silently accepted Old Man Jia's scolding. Unexpectedly, Song Mo Ran really became impatient.

"Teacher Jia, right?" Song Mo Ran asked.

Old man Jia was stunned, as if he didn't expect Song Mo Ran to suddenly interrupt him. Perhaps from the moment he took the position until now, no one had ever dared to interrupt him like this.

Song Mo Ran continued, "It's like this, I didn't come here today to hear about Lin Xiaoxiao's problem. I want to tell you, if Lin Xiaoxiao wants to come to school in the future, you don't have to worry about it, just let her go. As for university, I will let her study in Ideal University."

His words didn't sound like a request, as if he was informing old man Jia of his decision. Then, Song Mo Ran came close to old man Jia's ear and whispered what I didn't hear clearly.

Normally, old man Jia is arrogant and domineering, but in front of Song Mo Ran, he seems to have changed. He looks at me and grudgingly nods his head.

Walking out of the office, doubt filled my heart.

Turning my head to look at Old Man Jia, who personally sent Song Mo Ran and I out with great respect, I couldn't help but shiver. This is too abnormal, to the point that it made me feel uneasy and scared.

Old man Jia bowed towards Song Mo Ran and said, "Director Song, take care."

This sentence directly hit my heart, and all my doubts completely disappeared at this moment. I turned my head to look at Song Mo who was expressionless and had his hands in his pockets, and I could vaguely see a trace of disdain and innate pride on his exquisite face. I turned my head away and obediently stayed by his side, lowering my head to look at my toes. Just a slight movement of his fingers was enough to change the fate of many people.

After bidding farewell to old man Jia, I intended to head towards the classroom, but Song Mo Ran grabbed my hat and turned around. I glared at him angrily as I completely forgot that he had helped me escape from old man Jia's grasp as I snappily said, "Let go, I want to return to class."

Song Mo Ran smiled as he raised his arm, and carefully brushed the hair by my ear. The corner of his mouth curled up slightly, but it revealed an evil charm that couldn't be hidden, and he slowly approached me, and at the end, he whispered into my ear. His warm breath lightly touched my cheek, and he said in a low voice, "I'll come pick you up after night self-study."

I pouted my lips but didn't say anything. I calmly pulled away from him and walked back to the classroom in large strides.

His gaze made my back go cold, and I couldn't help but shiver. I quickened my pace, just in case Song Mo Ran regrets and lets me go before coming to capture me again.

After making a turn, we walked to the entrance of the classroom. I heaved a sigh of relief. Luckily, Song Mo Ran did not catch up to us.

It was break time so I went in through the back door. Quite a few students in the class gave me meaningful looks and lowered their heads. I walked straight to my seat and took out a book from my bag to open it, but I couldn't read a single word.

I guess everyone is talking about it now. After the incident with Cheng Shuyun earlier, everyone knew about my story. I flipped through two pages in annoyance, but my heart was starting to miss Li Rong. I don't know how he is doing now.

Just when I was lost in thought, Wu Qianqian, who was sitting in the front seat, suddenly turned her head and asked curiously with her big watery eyes: "Xiao-Xiao, who is that man?"

Not only Wu Qianqian, but a bunch of girls who normally wouldn't even pay attention to me surrounded me. Everyone's eyes lit up and there was a smile on their face that caught me off guard.

I somewhat frantically glanced at the students surrounding me before forcing out a few words, "He's my brother-in-law."

"Wow, brother-in-law, oh my god, your sister is so happy!"

"Your brother-in-law is so handsome and handsome …"

"Oh yeah, Brother-in-law Xiaoxiao seems to be the CEO of the Song Corporation."
