Chapter 61 Pei Yang Suspended from Duty

"Pei Yang! Pei Yang!"

In the early morning, while the sky was still dimly lit, the dormitory door was being pounded with a thunderous noise.

By the time Shen Mingzhu opened her eyes and sat up in bed, Pei Yang had already thrown on a coat to open the door.

It was Lin Guofu.

He glanced through the dorm door at Shen Mingzhu, who was still bleary-eyed in bed, and said to Pei Yang, "Let's talk outside."

"Okay."

As the dormitory door closed with a clang, the sound of their conversation was cut off from the inside.

Shen Mingzhu turned to look out the window; the dawn was breaking, and a touch of dark red appeared on the horizon.

Something stirred beside her—it was Pei Ziheng waking up.

He sat up squinting, confusion evident on his delicate face, and with two tufts of hair sticking up on his head, he looked particularly adorable.

"What happened?"

Shen Mingzhu reached out to tousle her stepson's fuzzy head, "It's nothing, go back to sleep."

"Okay."
