After Being Forced to Become a Bigshot, I Only Want to be Normal Chapter 43 - 43 Someone You Suspect

43 Soone You Suspect

Lu Ning stared at the two of them.

Distant cousins?

More like distant bodyguards.

Soone who wanted to protect her even from thousands of miles away—simply put, a distant bodyguard.

Lin Ci accepted this explanation for now, but she clearly did not believe it.

However, it was no ti for chit-chat, what with Lu Ning being in such a state.

“Little Ning, let accompany you to the back to change your clothes.”

Lu Ning nodded. Gu Zi took the dripping wet jacket she had just taken off.

She stood up; not a couple of steps later the door of the infirmary opened from the outside.

When they heard it open they subconsciously spun around.

The sunlight from behind him blinded them. Lu Ning squinted when she saw a silhouette, and his face slowly beca clearer.

“Mr. Huo?”

Huo Jinyan marched in and placed sothing in her hands. His gaze fell upon the gauze on her forehead.

Traces of crimson seeped into the gauze.

“Teacher Huo.”

He looked down to et her gaze and corrected how she should address him. Then, he turned around and left.

“…”

“…”

“…”

“Who’s that?”

Gu Zi asked in a daze.

Lu Ning looked at the brand new school uniform wrapped in transparent plastic in her hands.

“The new English teacher.”

“Teacher?”

Lin Ci looked at the clothes in her hand and was a little puzzled. “Wherever did Teacher Huo get a new school uniform? Forget it, let’s change you out first. You’ll catch a cold if you continue wearing those wet clothes.”

The two of them went to the back to change. Gu Chen stared at the spot where Huo Jinyan was standing and scrunched his brows slightly.

Gu Zi could not help but co over. “Where did this new teacher co from? Didn’t we check the teachers who’re teaching Boss? I didn’t hear about a new teacher coming.”

Gu Chen did not utter a word. After so contemplation, he spoke out loud, “I think I’ve seen him sowhere before.”

Gu Zi: “Huh, you saw him before? And didn’t Boss call him Mr. Huo just now? Does she know him from sowhere?”

Hearing this, Gu Chen seed to have thought of sothing and took out his cell phone.

At the sa ti, he reminded Gu Zi, “Change how you address her. She’s a student now, don’t cause her any trouble.”

Gu Zi nodded.

“Then what should I call her? I want to call her sothing special, not the sa thing as what you people call her!”

Gu Chen: “…”

Ignoring him, Gu Chen browsed through so old photos from his phone.

Lu Ning’s inner clothes were also drenched, so she changed into Gu Chen’s clothes. She also wore the new school uniform Huo Jinyan brought.

“I get it now. The freshn arrive today, so they’re collecting their new uniforms; and this is one of the leftovers. Teacher Huo might look scary, but he’s actually quite considerate.”

When Lu Ning heard Lin Ci describe Huo Jinyan as considerate, she could barely withstand the urge to tell her so of the rumors surrounding Huo Jinyan.

When the two of them walked out, Gu Zi leaned over. “Baby, you feeling unwell anywhere else?”

Lin Ci: “…”

Lu Ning: “…”

This form of address…

Lu Ning sighed and chose not to bicker with him. If she objected to it, he might co up with sothing even more embarrassing, and it was not as if he had never called her that before.

“Nope.”

“You haven’t eaten, right? Don’t go to the canteen, I’ll get soone to bring it. Hurry up and rest on the sofa.”

He chased Lu Ning to the sofa and sat her down, then took her jacket to the back.

Lin Ci sat beside her and looked at Lu Ning. “Is there soone you suspect?”

Lu Ning understood what she was asking. “No.”

Lin Ci was sowhat perplexed. “Was that bucket on the doorway ant for you?”
