Kristina was in a foul mood, and as her friend, Jessica personally went to John. "We really can''t let it slide that Miss Zhang had used James. Kristina absolutely agrees with you when you cracked down on the Zhang family, but you should stop now. If Kristina wants to buy out the Zhang family''spany, you should let her purchase it. Both of our families are quite powerful. We should be friends, and work together, instead of bing enemies..."


    But despite Jessica''s painstaking efforts to persuade John, she was not able to convince him. The leastpromise John could give was when he said he would give it some thought. In the end, John decided not to interfere in this matter anymore, because he had identally heard Nina saying to James that the way he dealt with the Zhang family was a little cruel.


    He did all these for her sake and to get her revenge, but she was not thankful, and even thought that he was cruel.


    Just the thought of it made John''s anger rise, and he didn''t want to talk to Nina. As a result, the atmosphere in the Time Group was subdued, and all the employees in thepany were in panic mode. All of them had their eyes fixed on Henry, hoping that he could give them a timeline as to when John would be in a usible mood.


    Unbeknownst to them, Henry himself had been trembling in fear for several days now. He was trying to find a way to solve the problem in a discreet manner. James'' initial reaction, on the other hand, was to not get himself involved. He just took Michelle away from Nina e


    er say that he would not call the roll. Consequently, she heard the bell ring, and some students were discussing where to go to y when the ss was over. Because she was still half awake, Nina didn''t notice how familiar the teacher''s voice was, and went out with the crowd.


    Meanwhile, John was sitting in Jason''s office and was looking at a peach tree out of the window. Peach blossoms were blossoming on the tree, and it made John affectionately think of Nina.


    Although the peach blossoms were beautiful, they were not as beautiful as his little girl and they paled inparison.


    When Henry saw that Nina had left the ssroom, he turned back and reported, "Mr. Shi, Miss Lu was among the students who had left."


    "Okay. It''s almost time for the next ss," John said and stood up quietly, acent smile shing across his bright mischievous eyes.


    When the bell rang, the first sentence John said was, "Next, let''s call the roll. Students who skip sses will be deducted points."


    There was a dead silence and even a pin dropping could be heard.


    Whoosh!


    The next second, everyone was in a panic. They all sent secret messages and asked their ssmates toe back as soon as possible.


    Earlier, the substitute teacher said he would not check their attendance, but now he suddenly announced that they would have points deducted if they were not present. With the number of students present, at least half of the students who went out would have to retake this same ss next year! Such a bother!
