59 Peach is Shy (1/2)

Finally, when the early morning reading class ended, Peach got up and planned to walk past the lectern to head to the toilet. As she passed by Mr. Zhao, he looked at Peach with a smile, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear. ”Daughter-in-law? Right?”

Peach covered her face and fled.

When school was about to be dismissed, Peach remembered that before school the day before, Mr. Zhao had asked them to register for the evening self-study today if they were keen. However, Peach's parents were not at home. Peach thought about it over and over again, before finally summoning up her courage and made a trip to the building where Shen Mochen's classroom was.

In a short time span of one day, all the students in the eighth grade building knew about Peach.

Today, when Peach climbed up the stairs, there were often students who passed by her while giggling before pointing at her and whispering to the person next to them, ”Look, that's Shen Mochen's girlfriend.”

Peach suddenly felt extremely stressed.

When she arrived at the door of Grade Eight Class Two, before Peach even stood still, someone in the classroom shouted to Shen Mochen, ”Shen Mochen, your girlfriend is here to look for you.”

At that time, Shen Mochen was looking down and doing his homework. Hearing the voice, he turned his head and briefly glanced at the entrance of the classroom and saw Peach standing there seemingly at a loss of what to do.

Shen Mochen calmly sauntered out of the classroom amidst his classmates' whistling, and asked Peach, ”What's wrong?”

”The form teacher asked us to register our interest in attending the evening self-study sessions…” Peach suddenly regretted asking Shen Mochen, as he was not her parent after all.

Shen Mochen calmly spat out two words, ”Not attending.”

”Eh?” Peach looked up at him in puzzlement.
