Chapter 573: Zeng Zijuan’s Missing

“Oh right, this is for you.”

Jun Hao took out a red packet from his pocket and passed it to Lu Sheng. “Thank you for the talisman you gave me. This is a small token of my appreciation. I hope you won’t mind.”

“Thank you, Young Master Jun!” Lu Sheng received it with a smile.

She would like any red packet, regardless of its size. As long as there was one.

“Has your card been unfrozen?” Chu Yan asked faintly.

“Yes, it was unfrozen this morning. My mother asked my father to do so.”

Jun Hao looked at Chu Yan and said, “Ah Yan, it’s your birthday at the end of next month. How are you going to celebrate?”

Chu Yan said lightly, “My grandfather said that he wants to hold a birthday banquet and let me get to know the Chu family’s business partners.”

Jun Hao nodded. “I guessed as much. After all, you’re just a legend in the capital. It’s indeed time for everyone to get to know you.”

When she heard about Chu Yan’s birthday, Lu Sheng hurriedly listened attentively.

When she heard Chu Yan say that he wanted to hold a birthday banquet, she subconsciously pursed her lips.

After Jun Hao returned to his seat, she said to Chu Yan, “How did you spend your past birthdays?”

Chu Yan said disapprovingly, “Just a meal with my parents.”

“I’m like that too. Every year, Master and Uncle Shangguan celebrated my birthday for me.”

Chu Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at her. He asked softly, “When’s your birthday?”

“It’s already over. It’s during the Zhongyuan Festival.”

Zhongyuan Festival?

Chu Yan nodded and noted it down.

Soon, the bell rang and the students outside ran to the classroom.

When the teacher entered, the classroom regained its quietness.

“Let’s take attendance.”

The teacher in Class One was a tall and skinny old man. He wore glasses and had a serious expression.

He took out the name list and started taking attendance. The front was alright, but when it was Zeng Zijuan’s turn, the classroom was silent.

“Where’s Zeng Zijuan?”

It was only then that everyone realized that Zeng Zijuan was not around.

“Teacher, I haven’t seen her. Perhaps she overslept?” Zeng Zijuan’s deskmate, Mai Keke, said.

The Physics teacher frowned and drew a circle before continuing down the list.

In the end, after one lesson, Zeng Zijuan still did not return.

Jun Hao turned back to look at Zeng Zijuan’s seat and frowned.

“Young Master Jun, do you know where Zijuan went?” Mai Keke asked Jun Hao.

Jun Hao shook his head. “I don’t know.”

“How can you not know?” Mai Keke frowned. “I clearly saw her following you out of school yesterday.”

Jun Hao did not like hearing this. He said unhappily, “What a joke. When won’t she follow me out of the school?”

“Let’s call and ask. I hope nothing happened.”

A girl who had a good relationship with Zeng Zijuan spoke.

Mai Keke said, “I’ve called, but it didn’t get through. She’s not replying on WeChat either.”

“Why don’t we ask Teacher Teng and see if he knows?”

Mai Keke nodded and left the classroom with the girl.

Not long later, they returned.

The duo looked grave.

Jun Hao glanced at them and asked, “What did Teacher Teng say?”

Mai Keke said, “Teacher Teng called the Zeng family. They said that she came to school early in the morning.”

Jun Hao frowned. “Since she’s here, why didn’t we see her?”

Although Zeng Zijuan was unruly and willful, she had never been absent from school. She would come to class on time almost every day.

“The Zeng family has already sent people out to find her. I wonder if they’ve found her.”

Mai Keke returned to her seat and took out her phone to call Zeng Zijuan. Again, no one picked up.
