The next day, Su Rou woke up and checked the time. It was almost eight o'clock. Classes were about to start. "Hurry up, hurry up..." Su Rou murmured to herself. She quickly got herself ready. She didn't want to be late on her first day of school.
Su Rou rushed downstairs. Before Su Yuze could say a word, she said anxiously, "Brother Ze, I'm going to be late. I'll skip breakfast."
Su Yuze raised his sword-shaped eyebrows. "Stop."
"Huh?" Su Rou held the door open with one hand and turned back to look at Su Yuze. "What's up?"
"Sit down and have breakfast," Su Yuze said expressionlessly. He didn't like it when Su Rou didn't eat on time.
Su Rou was a bit embarrassed. Looking at the delicious breakfast on the table, after a moment of hesitation, she still resolutely opened the door. "But Brother Ze, I really..." There was no time left.
Su Yuze put down the teacup in his hand and stood up. Before she could even see his movements clearly, he was already behind her. Then Su Rou felt herself being lifted up. She nervously looked back and saw Su Yuze's firm chin. "Have breakfast first."
Su Yuze carried Su Rou back to the dining table like a little chick. "I'll take you there after you finish."
Su Rou bit the bread aggrievedly. "But I'll be late..."
"Who would dare to say anything about you?" Su Yuze raised his eyebrows. Anyone who dared to say something about his sister was asking for trouble!
Su Rou pouted. "But I don't want to be late on my first day of school!"
"Who told you to oversleep?" Su Yuze chuckled softly. He knew Su Rou liked to oversleep. After a summer vacation, it was a miracle that she could get up so early.
"The alarm didn't go off!" Su Rou defended herself. She really didn't hear the alarm go off, so she didn't get up.
"Humph..." This time, Su Yuze's smile deepened. The alarm actually did go off, but she turned it off after the first ring and then went back to sleep. Back when she was in junior high school, she was late many times. Sometimes, he even had to wake her up.
Su Rou checked the time. It was already past eight o'clock. The first class must have been going on for at least half an hour. She quickly finished the breakfast in front of her, then rushed over, grabbed Su Yuze, and headed for the door. "Hurry up, hurry up!"
Su Yuze dropped her off at the school gate. When Su Rou walked in, the large school was very quiet. There wasn't a single student in sight. Only a few security guards were strolling slowly on the school path. Su Rou found Class One. Inside, a middle-aged woman with glasses was passionately teaching from a book. At this time, Su Rou knocked on the door. "Teacher, I'm late."
"Hmm?" The teacher, who was teaching excitedly, suddenly heard a voice that didn't belong in the classroom. She frowned and looked towards the door. A petite girl was standing there. "Who are you?"
"I'm a student in this class," Su Rou said with a smile. As the saying goes, one should never hit a smiling face. Maybe the teacher wouldn't punish her.
"Being late on the first day of school. What kind of attitude is this!" The teacher obviously didn't like students who were late. She angrily picked up the attendance register and said in an unhappy tone, "What's your name?"
"Su Rou."
Whoosh - When the students in the class heard this name, there was a small commotion. Su Rou, the genius who skipped a grade and got into No. 1 Middle School at the age of fourteen and always ranked first in the grade? Oh my god. They originally thought that the top student in the grade would either be a bookworm with thick glasses or a silent and eccentric weirdo. But they never expected it to be such a sweet girl. Of course, the most excited ones in the class were the boys. At this young and energetic age, they were naturally interested in beautiful girls.
"Su... Su Rou?" The teacher couldn't help but widen her eyes. "Is it that Su Rou?"
Su Rou didn't know what Brother Ze had told the school. Anyway, from kindergarten to high school, the teachers had always been polite to her. So Su Rou smiled sweetly and said, "If there's no one else in the school with the same name as me, I should be that Su Rou."
When the teacher heard this, she knew this was a big deal. The school director had held an emergency meeting yesterday, saying that if there was a student named Su Rou, no matter which class she was assigned to, they must treat her well. They were not allowed to scold or beat her. Even if she did something wrong, they were not allowed to blame her.
All the teachers were shocked at that time. They wondered how powerful this student named Su Rou's background was that even the school director was so afraid of her. But now this student had been assigned to her class, so there was no way she could blame her.
"Since this is your first time, the teacher won't pursue it. Hurry up and go to your seat. Class is about to start," the teacher's expression immediately turned kind.
"The teacher just said that if anyone was late, they would have to stand in class all day!" a student whispered.
"Yeah, and she also said that being even a minute late was not allowed!" some students protested dissatisfiedly.
Su Rou found an empty seat, which happened to be behind Xiao Yun. Xiao Yun turned around, looking unsurprised. "I said, Rou Rou, when will you ever change your habit of being late?" Since they met in junior high school, this girl had always been late. She was late for about five days out of seven in a week. But the teachers never scolded her. Instead, they were worried that she was not feeling well.
At first, Xiao Yun and the other two were nervous for Su Rou. But gradually, seeing how the teachers cared about her, it became a common occurrence.
"I'm used to it," Su Rou said.
"You'll make so many people jealous like this!" Xiao Yun sighed. Thinking back to when they first met Su Rou, he was so jealous of her treatment, especially Ling Tiantian. "But I'm just curious. How can you still be the top student in the grade like this?"
Su Rou said seriously, "It's a matter of intelligence!"
"Huh? You little kid..."
