The Obsessive Tycoon Claims the Deserted Heiress Chapter 138 - 137: Master Shi’s Face-Changing Routine

She glared fiercely at the gym teacher, no longer concerned with anything else, and chased after the silhouette that was gradually disappearing—all the while silently staying by his side.

After completing a lap, Qin Huai noticed the girl’s face turning pale. He quickly held her arm and asked, "Little Zhi, are you okay?"

Yu Zhi forced herself to endure the pain in her abdon, tightly pressed her lower lip, and softly murmured a response.

It might have been because her period had co, but she was clearly struggling much more this ti as she ran.

"Could you get so water?" Yu Zhi stopped walking, rubbed her aching lower back, and gestured with a nod towards the backpack not far away, "The thermos is inside."

"All right, wait for here."

As the other hurried away, the girl turned her head for just a mont, her peripheral vision accidentally catching sight of the gym teacher standing on the basketball court, staring at her.

She exchanged glances with him across the distance for a few seconds, the corner of her lips curling into a sarcastic arc. Then, unwilling to admit defeat, she moved forward once more under his watchful gaze.

By the middle of the second lap, sweat had already ford layers on her forehead, and her legs were beginning to buckle.

Yu Zhi propped her hands on her knees and, realizing sothing was wrong with her condition, simply sat down right where she was.

She hung her head low, beads of sweat dripping onto her arm with a faint sound.

"Yu Zhi!"

Lu Li, who had just gone to fetch Teacher Ji, tensed up after seeing this scene. He rushed over with what felt like the fastest speed of his life.

He crouched beside the girl, his tone dropping to an almost whisper, "Are you okay?"

Yu Zhi slowly lifted her gaze to glance at him. "I’m fine."

She kneaded her weak legs a few tis, pressing her palms against the ground in an attempt to stand up, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t muster any strength.

While Lu Li was hesitating whether to help her get up, Ji Jingchen had already extended his hand to lift the girl.

"Can you walk?"

Ji Jingchen gazed at her pale cheeks with concern, pressing the back of his hand to her forehead to check her temperature. Only after confirming she didn’t have a fever did he relax a little.

"I can," she nodded, her gaze lingering on the gym teacher approaching from a distance, before continuing forward.

Shengde’s dical room was equipped with a comprehensive range of standard instrunts. It could be regarded as the most well-equipped dical room among all the schools in Imperial City.

After examining the girl, the school doctor confird there were no problems with her abdon or heart and then administered a bottle of nutritional infusion.

"Teacher Ming, I recall ntioning during a previous eting that girls shouldn’t exercise during their special ti."

The school doctor’s tone carried a hint of reprimand, and their gaze at the gym teacher also bore visible dissatisfaction.

At the start of every new sester in Shengde, the school would invite the doctor to educate all teachers on such topics, so they’d know how to respond in certain situations.

Moreover, before each gym class, teachers would check which girls might be affected by their special ti.

Clearly, he hadn’t fulfilled his duty this ti.

"I’m sorry. This is my fault." The embarrassed gym teacher glanced at the girl lying on the bed, feeling sowhat distressed himself.

"What good is ’sorry’? Fortunately, this student has excellent physical resilience. If, during the run, her ovarian tissue ruptured, do you even realize what consequences that could have had?"

The school doctor’s harsh words left the gym teacher completely speechless; he could only endure the scolding quietly.

Ji Jingchen glanced at the two with indifference, signaling them with his eyes to lower their voices.

After both fell silent, he walked to the bedside and sat down, crossing his arms and leaning back against the chair, silently waiting for the girl—who had already fallen asleep—to finish her infusion.

Approximately ten minutes later, the cheerful sound of the dismissal bell rang throughout the campus, followed by frenzied noises of laughter and playfulness outside the window.

Ji Jingchen turned his head and looked at Qin Huai and Lu Li, who were sitting silently nearby without moving, and asked in a low voice, "Why haven’t you gone ho yet?"

"Teacher Ji, I want to wait until Little Zhi wakes up." Qin Huai was still holding the girl’s thermos cup, her delicate and obedient expression one that no one could bear to refuse.

"Mm. What about you, Lu Li?"

"I... I’ll go ho later." Lu Li lowered his gaze, his eyes flickering sowhat uneasily.

Unlike Qin Huai, who was the girl’s desk mate and had a relatively close relationship with her, he felt as though he lacked any reason to remain.

"Buzz, buzz buzz—"

The phone in the nearby backpack suddenly began vibrating. Being pressed against the bench, it instantly drew everyone’s attention.

Qin Huai took out the girl’s phone, feeling a bit at a loss, and asked, "Teacher Ji, should I answer it?"

"Give it to ."

"..."

Across from the school.

Shi Wei sat in his car, his gaze occasionally shifting to his right. After waiting for quite a while, he finally couldn’t help but dial the girl’s number.

The call rang several tis before being answered, and just as he was about to speak, a male voice ca through.

The man’s face instantly darkened. His grip on the steering wheel tightened as his deep voice carried an icy edge: "Who are you?"

"Hello, I’m Yu Zhi’s horoom teacher. She..."

The rest of the teacher’s words didn’t register in the man’s ears; he only caught the phrase "dical room."

That single phrase was enough to make him lose all rationale.

Shi Wei ended the call, slamd the accelerator, and turned his car around. The guard at the campus gate didn’t even have ti to react before the Maybach sped into the school grounds.

He stopped in front of the building with the prominently displayed red cross sign, slamd the car door closed with a bang, and strode inside.

"Mr. Shi, over here." Ji Jingchen, sharp-eyed, imdiately noticed the man’s figure and waved at him.

Shi Wei jogged forward and, after pulling aside the curtain divider, felt his heart ache upon seeing the girl lying on the bed.

He sat on the edge of the bed, gently stroking her cheek, his gaze tracing her features as if he could never get enough of looking at her.

Perhaps recognizing the familiar presence, the girl playfully snuggled into his embrace, her free hand clutching his sleeve.

Her movent made Shi Wei’s heart ache even more. He tugged at the blanket’s edges and pulled her closer into his arms again.

"What’s wrong with her?" The tenderness in his eyes disappeared entirely when he turned to look at Ji Jingchen.

Ji Jingchen repeated what he had said over the phone earlier, apologizing sincerely, "I’m sorry, it was due to our negligence."

Shi Wei scoffed lightly, his pale lips curled into a mocking smile. "Do you think—"

"Shi Wei." The girl’s pure, soft voice interrupted him, sounding faintly like a kitten’s purr.

Shi Wei forcibly swallowed the rest of his words. He lowered his gaze and gently pinched her cheek. "Did I wake you?"

"No." Yu Zhi leaned against his chest, yawning slightly.
