Since there was still no news from Su Ze, Su Tan simply asked the school for a long leave of absence.
She adapted well to life on the island.
Ruan Chen handles external affairs while she manages internal affairs. Now, everyone on the island respectfully calls her "Sister Su".
As for the homework... I can only ask Su Tan to send it over, or see if anyone is coming to China in the next couple of days and can bring it over as well.
Even so, it will still take several days.
Ruan Chen lowered her head meekly and said, "Teacher, I left my homework in another city. I asked my family to send it, but it will take a few days."
Although Teacher He felt that "waiting a few days" was just an excuse for Ruan Chen to catch up on her homework, the girl was clean and pretty, and had a good attitude, looking like she knew she was wrong and would correct her mistake. So Teacher He waved his hand gently to indicate that he understood.
Ruan Chen breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this teacher was actually a pretty good person.
She bent down to pull out a chair to sit down when there was a polite knock on the classroom door. "Hello teacher, I'm a family member of Ruan Chen. She left her homework at home, so I'm bringing it to her. Is she in this class?"
The whole class instinctively looked over.
Ruan Chen was completely bewildered: Who is this?
But the man and woman at the door were indeed holding Ruan Chen's winter vacation homework, with Ruan Chen's scrawled handwriting on the cover.
The man and woman were dressed in elegant formal attire, the woman wearing light makeup. Both of them exuded a slightly sharp aura as they smiled and fixed their gazes on Ruan Chen.
Ruan Chen suddenly felt like she was being watched by a hunter.
She understood immediately and calmly stood up, saying, "Thank you for coming to the school, Uncle and Aunt."
She walked towards the door, her delicate and beautiful features like a newly blooming rose, captivating everyone's attention, even in the most ordinary school uniform.
She passed by Teacher He and said, "Teacher, I need to go out with my uncle and aunt to talk for a few minutes."
"Go on, go on." Teacher He had already opened Ruan Chen's homework. He didn't expect the child to complete the homework so carefully. Although the handwriting was really terrible, there were traces of calculation in almost every question.
corridor.
Ruan Chen leaned against the railing. The weather was starting to warm up, and the sun felt warm on her body. She squinted her eyes contentedly, her posture lazy and relaxed.
Then she met the worried gaze that the boy was casting from the classroom.
Ruan Chen pretended not to see it, casually turned her head, took off her coat and draped it over her shoulder, and waited quietly for the person to speak.
The two people were indeed carrying her winter vacation homework that she had left on the island. These two homework books were in Su Ze's room, and Su Tan didn't know that. If Teacher He hadn't collected the homework earlier, Ruan Chen herself would have forgotten about it.
“So the second-in-command really is still a student,” the man in the middle of the two laughed, extending his hand to Ruan Chen. “My name is Chen San, from Interpol.”
"My name is Chen Si." The woman also extended her hand.
These are clearly two pseudonyms.
One doesn't hit a smiling face. Although Ruan Chen's wariness hadn't subsided, she understandingly extended her hand and gave him a slight handshake, "Ruan Chen."
"Miss Ruan, I really find it hard to understand why someone of your status would need to venture into such a dangerous place as Liuli Island." Chen San got straight to the point, without even exchanging pleasantries.
Ruan Chen simply leaned against the railing indifferently, without changing her posture, and asked, "Is there something you need?"
She did indeed deal with that group of traitors using the Blood Skull family rules.
Ruan Chen looked at the blue sky and white clouds in his eyes and thought to himself that he had indeed made quite a fuss this time, but if he didn't use ruthless methods, it would be difficult to control these people who only obeyed Su Ze.
But her actions were at most borderline; she wasn't foolish enough to get blood on her hands—she didn't need to personally deal with those people.
Chen San clearly sensed the coldness and resistance emanating from Ruan Chen, and continued, "After the Blood Skull's leader disappeared, there's been a lot of talk in the underworld about how promising the second-in-command is. Even when we came to China to find Miss Ruan, the higher-ups there had some reservations about us, and we negotiated for a long time..."
Ruan Chen sighed.
Chen San paused tactfully.
“Mr. Chen, let’s get down to business.” Ruan Chen glanced at the teacher, then at the time on his watch. “I’m still a student, and I have to attend class.”
We need your help.
Chen San knew about the people Ruan Chen had dealt with. Initially, he wanted to use his identity as an Interpol agent and this matter to break Ruan Chen down—at least to open a breakthrough in her heart. However, after meeting Ruan Chen, he realized that he should lower his stance in front of this girl.
Ultimately, the people Ruan Chen dealt with were all stateless outlaws with dirty hands, and their organization had no jurisdiction over the places Ruan Chen chose to operate.
So Chen San stopped beating around the bush.
“Okay, no problem, got it.” Ruan Chen glanced at his watch again. “Noon or evening, whichever is convenient for you, we can talk somewhere else.”
The first day of school was just as ordinary as any other day at school before, and the little incident this morning was quickly forgotten by everyone.
After school, Ruan Chen declined Yu Xiaoya's invitation to go with her and left alone through the side door.
Chen San and Chen Si invited her to sit in the coffee shop in front.
She went out and didn't see Chen San or Chen Si, but she did see another familiar face.
"Sister Xiaolan?"
Xu Xiaolan, Technical Section, Criminal Investigation Detachment, Municipal Public Security Bureau.
Xu Xiaolan leaned against the SUV, which was about the same height as her, and greeted Ruan Chen.
"What's wrong, Sister Lan?"
Xu Xiaolan tossed her a hamburger. "Our Deputy Director Lü heard that Interpol had some important guests from Country F, and he came to see you. He specially invited those two big shots to the Municipal Bureau. We'll talk there."
Ruan Chen smiled as she bit into her beef burger without salad dressing.
This was because they were afraid of being bullied, so they deliberately chose to do it on the grounds of the Municipal Bureau.
"Thank you, Sister Xiaolan."
"No need to thank me," Xu Xiaolan skillfully turned the steering wheel, maneuvering the bulky SUV into the rush hour traffic. "Your teacher Duan personally spoke to you, and several other departments are also very concerned about your situation, afraid that you'll suffer because you're young and inexperienced. Our municipal bureau received the news too late—and you too, why didn't you say anything?"
