In Beijing, Xinyan left school at noon and took a leave of absence.
Jiang Peiqin, knowing she took leave, came after her, "Xinyan, did something happen that you need to take the afternoon off?"
Xinyan saw Jiang Peiqin's nervousness and whispered, "Don't worry. It's nothing major. I just need to have lunch at my mentor's place. My fourth senior brother returned to the Capital, so I took the afternoon off."
