When Gu Yue heard Xiao Chen's request, she froze slightly, a trace of doubt flickering through her heart.
Wait, didn't Xiao Chen have Ya Li's contact information?
For something this minor, couldn't he just send her a message on his phone to let her know? Why ask me?
But that doubt vanished in an instant, and a hint of sweetness soon rippled through Gu Yue's heart.
Whatever the reason, Xiao Chen had taken the initiative to ask her for help, and opportunities like that were rare.
It was only a small matter, hardly worth mentioning to her.
She nodded gently, her voice soft yet decisive. "Sure. Just leave it to me."
After agreeing, she asked softly out of curiosity:
"But Chen, don't you have Teacher's contact information? Why have me pass the message along?"
Xiao Chen said helplessly, "I already sent Ya Li a message, but she still hasn't replied."
"Maybe she's been busy with all sorts of things lately and hasn't had time to check her phone.
"Besides, while I'm away from the academy, I won't have time to check mine either. If she needs me, I won't see her messages."
"And just sending a message about leaving the academy wouldn't be appropriate. I can't be bothered to go see her again, so I figured I'd ask you to pass it along. That would be more reliable."
Gu Yue nodded slightly at his words, but rather than fading, her doubts grew stronger.
Wasn't that excuse a little far-fetched? How far could it possibly be to go see Ya Li?
Besides, what business was he leaving Shrek Academy to handle? Did Leng Yaoyu know?
Looking at Xiao Chen, she couldn't help pressing him. "Where are you going? Will you really be so busy that you can't even check your phone?"
