Zhong Yihan’s expression became uglier and uglier. He got up and was about to leave when he suddenly saw something from the corner of his eye.

“This is…” He narrowed his eyes and picked up the item. It was actually the pink paper crane. He suddenly recalled what Jin Xi told him, “keep it close to your body to ensure your safety.”

He didn’t pay much attention to what she said then, but he kept it safe because it was a gift from Jin Xi. Now that he thought about it, did she already anticipate that something would happen to him?

If he thought about it more, perhaps his grandma was able to wake up for a few minutes because of this paper crane.

Zhong Yihan’s thoughts drifted further and further away. He felt as if he had caught a rope in the fog, and the other end of the rope might be the way to cure his grandma!

…

At Xifan Academy, the school bell rang. The big sister of Class 9, Wang Yuqin, rushed to Class 1. She found Jin Yingying and complained to her, “guess what happened? The boys are so shameless. As soon as they saw the new little bitch, they immediately forgot about you and even said you were pretending to be innocent. I’m so angry!”

Hearing this, Jin Yingying’s face turned ugly. “Did they really say that?”

“It’s true. I also heard that they’re going to kick you out and let Jin Xi replace you as the school belle!” Wang Yuqin said angrily.

Jin Yingying’s expression turned even uglier. Ever since she entered Xifan Academy, she was loved by everyone. She really liked it that way. But now, Jin Xi’s arrival had destroyed all of this!

“Jin Xi, just you wait!” Jin Yingying clenched her fists so tightly that she didn’t even notice that her nails had dug into her flesh.

“Hey, what are you guys doing here?” A man’s voice suddenly sounded.

The two of them looked over and saw that it was the class teacher of Class 9, Liu Tao.

Jin Yingying’s expression immediately changed, and she obediently said, “Teacher Liu, I’m helping her with her homework!”

“Yes,” Wang Yuqin chimed in, “I have a math problem that I don’t know how to solve, so I’m asking Yingying for help.”

Liu Tao was not a fool. How could he not know that they were lying? However, he did not expose them. Instead, he cleared his throat and said, “it’s good to be passionate about studying, but class has ended. Go home and not let our parents worry.”

“Yes, Teacher Liu.” Jin Yingying agreed with a smile and pulled Wang Yuqin away.

As he watched the two leave, Liu Tao shook his head. “Why do you have to pretend to be a good student? How strange!”

He took his car keys and prepared to go home. He also wanted to buy some sweet potatoes for his mother.

However, after he got into the car, for some reason, Jin Xi’s words kept replaying in his mind. She told him to hurry home after work and not buy potatoes. He panicked for some reason. After thinking for a while, he decided to drive home.

“Mom, I’m back!” As soon as Liu Tao entered the house, he called for his mother as usual. However, as soon as he took off his shoes, he smelled rotten eggs. Oh no! It was gas!

He ran into the kitchen in a hurry. There was a gas leak. His mother was boiling soup on the stove, and the spilled soup had put out the fire. The gas filled the entire house. Liu Tao quickly turned off the gas and ran to his mother’s room. His mother was unconscious at this time. He quickly called the emergency line and opened all the windows in the room to let out the gas.

The ambulance arrived quickly and took the old woman to the hospital for emergency treatment.

“Doctor, how’s my mother?” As soon as he saw the doctor coming out of the emergency room, Liu Tao quickly went up and asked.

The doctor took off his mask and said, “young man, it’s a good thing you discovered it early. If you were half an hour later, she would have suffered from carbon monoxide poisoning and would have been beyond saving. She is fine now. She just needs to stay in the hospital for a few days for further observation.”

Hearing this, Liu Tao let out a long sigh of relief. Luckily, he had gone home directly. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable. But how did Jin Xi know that something would happen to his mother? Could it be that she could predict the future?

…

At the Jin residence.

“Mom, there’s something I have to tell you. Jin Xi wasn’t in school today.” Jin Yingying said casually while eating.

Hearing this, Wu Yuyao quickly put down her chopsticks and frowned. “How is that possible? I sent her to school personally today!”

“You did send her to school, but how do you know if she played truant or not?” Jin Yingying pouted.
