The weekend flew by.
Rong Zhi made a round in Class 16 during morning reading, confirmed they were doing okay, and was about to leave, but was stopped by Teacher Mao, who said Si Raojing and Shang Xing were missing, and asked if she had seen them.
"No," she frowned slightly, "what's wrong?"
Teacher Mao was so anxious that cold sores appeared at the corner of his mouth. Normally, even if Si Raojing and his group were troublesome, they never skipped class, just arrived a few minutes late at most.
"I called Si Raojing's dad, he said he didn't know, and Shang Xing's parents said he hasn't been back since last night."
Si Raojing's family background is quite complicated, and his dad employs a free-range parenting style, as long as he is alive, it doesn't matter whether he's seen or not.
This was the first time Rong Zhi heard Teacher Mao talk about this, and she replied softly, "Don't worry, call them and ask."
