The five people in the dormitory who couldn't go home exchanged glances and then shook their heads resolutely.
"We're tired after these days, we're going to sleep well in the dorm!" Zhao Hongmei said first.
The others immediately agreed that they also needed a good rest.
Su Xiaotian didn't insist, smiling and saying, "Then when I come back, I'll bring you delicious food."
The others didn't think much about what delicious food Su Xiaotian would bring.
However, Yin Ruyun pouted, thinking, "She just knows how to win people over with delicious food!"
She wanted to see what delicious food Su Xiaotian could produce.
Su Xiaotian and Chu Yue left, chatting and laughing, while the others prepared to go to bed.
Yin Ruyun thought about Su Xiaotian's words and felt they made sense.
She wondered if she could also bring some delicious food to her classmates to win them over!
However, would her family agree?
While things weren't as tight as in the previous two years, good things were still scarce, and they had to be prioritized for her own family.
Just then, Ai Yu came to find Yin Ruyun to go home together.
It was only for one day, and if they went home now while it wasn't too late, they could stay home for one night.
"Ruyun, let's go quickly, it'll be dark if we're late!" Ai Yu urged the still dazed Yin Ruyun.
Yin Ruyun quickly responded, "Let's go."
She could talk about it when she got home, perhaps her family would agree?
After Su Xiaotian and Chu Yue walked out of the dormitory building, they saw two figures standing tall and elegant at the foot of the building.
It could only be Su Wusheng and Chi Yiyuan.
Chu Yue smiled and waved at Su Xiaotian, saying, "I'm leaving now. Xiaotian, see you tomorrow!"
With that, Chu Yue didn't linger and quickly walked towards the school gate.
Su Xiaotian stomped her foot and said, "I haven't even told her to be careful, and it's almost dark!"
"The security in Beijing is still trustworthy!" Chi Yiyuan couldn't help but smile, seeing the young girl like this.
How could this little girl, not yet grown, have the heart of an old mother?
"Let's go quickly too, I miss Grandpa, Grandma, Mom, and Dad," Su Wusheng said anxiously.
Since they had finally come to Beijing, they had to visit home.
It was understandable when they were busy before, but now that they had free time to go home, Su Wusheng was impatient.
Su Xiaotian had already called home to inform them that Su Wusheng was returning to Beijing and would be home on the weekend.
Grandma Su had asked them to go directly to Yiming Pavilion, saying that the family would celebrate together.
As soon as they reached the school gate, Su Xiaotian and the others were about to find a bus to go home when they saw Huo Sinian also at the school gate.
"Professor Huo!" Chi Yiyuan greeted him first.
Huo Sinian's face was full of smiles when he saw these people.
He was very familiar with Chi Yiyuan and Su Xiaotian. Among these three, only Su Wusheng was a bit unfamiliar, but they had interacted a lot in the past few days, and naturally, a bond had formed.
"We're going the same way, let's go together!" Huo Sinian said with a bright smile.
Su Xiaotian understood everything; he was also going to Yiming Pavilion.
It seemed that Huo Sinian had fully integrated into their family gatherings now.
"Professor Huo, regarding your suggestion for Xiaotian to be the class monitor and serve everyone, we might need to discuss it further!"
Chi Yiyuan couldn't say much at school, but now that they were leaving the school, Chi Yiyuan felt that some things could be said.
Huo Sinian had also been worried about this issue these past few days.
While being a class monitor was a valuable opportunity for other students, it didn't seem to hold much significance for Su Xiaotian.
"I just want to train Xiaotian. Yiyuan, you brat, you're so disrespectful! I'm your uncle!"
Chi Yiyuan glanced at Huo Sinian lightly and said, "Is that so?"
Huo Sinian's head ached; the seniority seemed to be getting mixed up.
Forget it, whatever.
"Yiyuan, you need to have a long-term perspective. It's a good opportunity for Xiaotian, even if it's a bit harder and more tiring. This is capital for her future endeavors in society."
Huo Sinian's tone was clearly lacking in confidence as he said this.
He was well aware of the protective nature of this large family.
He suddenly wondered if attending the gathering today was a wrong decision.
Was it too late to withdraw?
Clearly, it was too late. Just then, a small car drove towards them.
Su Xiaotian looked over and saw it was a car from the silk factory.
Could this car be here to pick up Professor Huo?
"Professor Huo, Xiaotian, the factory director knows you're going home tonight and asked me to specifically send you!"
"The director is too kind. We can take the bus back ourselves!" Su Xiaotian said with a smile.
After all, this was a company car, and it wasn't appropriate for them to use it for personal reasons.
"Xiaotian, the director said that you are a benefactor to the factory. Without you, the factory wouldn't have achieved its current development," the young driver said eloquently, immediately stating his position.
"Let's go, I'll refuel the car later!" Huo Sinian got into the car without any hesitation.
Hearing Huo Sinian's commitment, Su Xiaotian didn't say anything more. Since the car had already arrived, if they didn't get in, would they let the car run empty?
Yin Ruyun walked out of the school gate and happened to see Su Xiaotian getting into the small car.
Her face turned dark.
What was Su Xiaotian's identity that a small car was waiting to pick her up at the gate?
Thinking that she and Ai Yu had to wait for the bus miserably, Yin Ruyun became even more resentful.
Moreover, Yin Ruyun saw several familiar people: their homeroom teacher Professor Huo, Chi Yiyuan, whom she longed for, and their instructor.
Wait, she knew the relationship between the other two and Su Xiaotian, but why was the instructor with them?
"What exactly is going on?" Yin Ruyun murmured.
"Ruyun, we need to hurry."
Ai Yu looked at the sky; the sun was about to set. They would most likely have to walk in the dark tonight. Why wasn't Ruyun in a hurry at all?
"Let's go!" Seeing the small car drive away, Yin Ruyun silently noted down the car's license plate number and then turned to go take the bus with Ai Yu.
Su Xiaotian and the others had no idea that Yin Ruyun had witnessed them getting into the car.
Of course, even if she had seen it, Su Xiaotian would have been fearless.
Professor Huo was a technical consultant for the silk factory, and she was a translator for the silk factory. They were both considered insiders. Occasionally taking a ride in a factory car and refueling it wasn't a big deal.
The speed of the small car was naturally incomparable to that of a bus. When Su Xiaotian and the others arrived at Yiming Pavilion, the sun had not yet completely set.
Grandpa Su was overjoyed to see his grandson and granddaughter appear at the door.
His goatee twitched.
