The Principal

On the other hand, Shen Ya was busy contacting Zhen Xiu's mother. This was one of the biggest problems she has ever faced in her life.

She knew that Zhen Xiu belonged to the hidden Zhen Family and her mother Zhen Ying Yue was the powerful head behind the mighty family.

Zhen Ying Yue wanted to hide Zhen Xiu from her dangerous family members and this was something that bothered Shen Ya too much.

If she was the head of their family then why were they so hell-bent on killing her daughter?

This was something that has always confused her. She has tried asking her best friend regarding her doubts but she always got 'I DON'T KNOW' look from her.

Zhen Xiu hated her mother for hiding her and Shen Ya always thought that this was the reason that she never told anyone about her connections to the all too powerful Zhen Family.

She was ten years old when she was sent to boarding school in R country. Shen Ya was already there when Zhen Xiu became her classmate and the only childish girl in the bunch of extraordinary geniuses.

This was something that attracted Shen Ya's attention to her in the first place.

After that, they started interacting more and she came to know about her. Their friendship was sudden but Shen Ya always cherished her best friend. She was the only light in her dark life.

Shen Ya knew where Zhen Xiu's mother was but she didn't have a method to contact her.

They were deeply hidden in C country. Normal people didn't know about them but they were one of the key factors in running this country.

"I have to do it." Shen Ya encouraged herself.

She knew that if she tried meeting with Mother Zhen openly it will only lead to harm Zhen Xiu's life.

She didn't want that but she didn't have a choice in this matter.

Shen Ya called their principal from Royal Knight School in R country. Now he was the only one that can help her in this situation.

"James Carter speaking," A jolly voice greeted Shen Ya.

Shen Ya smiled remembering him.

He was a respectable principle during the day and a naughty kid at night that only knows how to live his life well without caring about anything else.

"It's me, Principal. I need your help." Shen Ya warmly smiled.

"Shen Ya my intelligent girl. How can I help you?" James Carter hurriedly asked her as he was busy pranking the junior students for his enjoyment.

Shen Ya can feel that he was doing something again to create havoc in the dormitories tonight.

"It's urgent. I want you to contact Zhen Xiu's mom."

James Carter was silent for a minute on the other side.

"Uhh! What? Who is Zhen Xiu?" His jolly voice asked her curiously.

Shen Ya knew that he was only acting to avoid doing the favor she asked him.

"It's really important; a matter of life and death." Shen Ya pleaded.

On the other side, Principal Carter was conflicted. It was the first time that this girl was asking him anything after she graduated from school but her demand was something that was absolutely difficult to fulfill.

He could easily contact Zhen Ying Yue but any news related to her daughter in the phone was outright dangerous for that little girl.

He could clearly hear the pleading behind Shen Ya's troubled voice but could do nothing to help her.

"Hey! Girl, I will do something. What do you need?" He asked her instead of straightforwardly agreeing to her demand.

"I need her medical reports. She could again go in the coma if doctors could not pinpoint her exact problem."

Shen Ya hoarsely told him about everything that Zhen Xiu suffered in these two years briefly.

Principal Carter was elated that the child got married after hearing the initial story but soon his happiness turned into madness as he listened further.

"I will send you her medical records and don't try to find anything about her. You know the drill. Zhen Xiu must have told you." James Carter agreed to send the medical reports as they were already with him from the past thirteen years.

He was basically her father in disguise.

Shen Ya was surprised that he agreed on this soon and thanked him heartily.

"It's okay. Go and help your friend." James Carter smiled on the other side. His laugh was clearly hiding his concern for the little girl. "Take care!"

…

James Carter dropped his plan to prank those naughty children and went inside his office. He sent the reports to Shen Ya and after giving another thought he started coding in his computer.

It was the special way of contacting his old friend Zhen Ying Yue, the only way, to stop leaking their communication from exposing.

After typing strings of command and several coding he was able to access her laptop and left a brief message and again used a similar pattern and deleted everything.

This was a special program called cloud bar that only the two of them knew about and used to communicate with each other.

His message was simple 'DANGEROUS COMA'.

It was simple and cryptic that was enough to get her attention if she wanted to intervene.

Zhen Ying Yue was a good mother that cared about her daughter and took all the hatred from her for the sake of keeping her safe and alive.

He knew the pain when she abandoned her little daughter Ming Yue. She didn't want to do that but have to because of special circumstances. She gave her a new name Xiu to hide her identity as her daughter.

"Ah! God bless you, Ying Yue." James sighed and prayed for his friend.
