Chapter 118: Lap Pillow

"You two, you almost were late,"

the next morning, Xu Xiangyang and Lin Xingjie, carrying their backpacks, ran all the way to school from their homes.

They huffed and puffed along the way, but in the end, they still couldn't catch up.

When they arrived near the school gate yesterday, it was still dim outside; today, however, the clouds had broken and the sun was shining brightly, the pitch-black marble on the school wall gleamed under the morning light.

Their homeroom teacher stood at the gate with a stern look on their face.

A row of faces were pasted against the bus windows, curiously looking down at the two standing at the gate, indicating that the majority of their classmates were already on the bus.

"Sorry, Teacher Liu!"

Xu Xiangyang sincerely apologized.

As for the reason for being late, it was hardly worth mentioning: purely because they had gotten up too late that morning.
