The Kitty Became a Cutie and Was Pampered in the 80s-Chapter 933: Can’t Return (3)

However, he didn’t rush back to the Duan Family immediately but lingered outside for two days and even visited a private detective.

What for did he go to a private detective?

Old Master Duan frowned. freёnovelkiss.com

The nearby school’s bell rang once again, this time signaling the end of the math competition, and Xiu Xi had finished long ago. He set aside his papers, waiting for the teacher to collect them before being the first to stand up and walk out.

The team leader saw him coming out and asked with a smile, "How did Xiu Xi do on the test?"

Xiu Xi happily replied, "I can win a medal."

The team leader had been with him for several days and had the impression that this boy was very reserved and his nature somewhat aloof; he hardly ever spoke with the other kids. The teacher had asked casually, not really expecting an answer, and had not anticipated him to not only respond but to do so... without any modesty.

Seeing his brimming confidence, the teacher couldn’t help but laugh and said teasingly, "Well, it’s not certain, perhaps you might even win a trophy."

Upon hearing this, Xiu Xi’s expression immediately changed, and he furrowed his brows, "A trophy?"

"Yeah, hahaha, you never know," said the team leader with a laugh. Seeing some other students also coming down, he immediately waved to signal them.

Once everyone had gathered, he clapped his hands and announced, "Students, well done! Now that the test is over, let’s not dwell on it. We’re going to find a place to eat; the teacher has booked tickets for five in the afternoon. After lunch, if you like, the teacher can take you around the area for a stroll. We have three hours, and we will leave for the train station at three o’clock. Okay?"

"That’s great." Several students immediately responded with excitement. They were all quite proud to be there for the test; the only regret was the hurried nature of their visit, not allowing for a stroll, but now they were pleased, even though it was only for three hours.

Xiu Xi, however, had a terribly twisted expression. He had not expected that his medal could potentially turn into a trophy, and he disliked staying there for so long, wishing he could hop on the train and return immediately.

After the gathering, the leading teacher greeted another from a different province, then led the group out of the school. Meanwhile, Duan Xin in the first grade was completely distracted from his class. Seeing the competitors passing by their classroom, he immediately stood up, ignoring the teacher’s angry shouts behind him, and ran out of the room, looking for Xiu Xi among the many students.

However, he did not find him; by this time, Xiu Xi had already left the school premises.

Sitting in the car, Old Master Duan was reminded by the driver and immediately looked up from the documents, gazing outside.

It was just like Duan Xin said, Xiu Xi was too outstanding, standing out from the crowd. Even though there were dozens of them walking out together, Xiu Xi was instantly spotted by him amidst the crowd.

Old Master Duan’s hand, holding his cane, trembled along.

The resemblance was uncanny!

Not just the eyes, but the features were strikingly similar!

"Old Li, Old Li, quick, help me out of the car!" As he watched Xiu Xi turn a corner with the teacher, Old Master Duan urgently called out.

The driver, Old Li, who sat in front, also snapped out of his shock, hurriedly got out from the passenger’s seat, and helped Old Master Duan out of the back seat.

Xiu Xi was always keenly aware of others’ gazes, and almost the moment Old Master Duan’s eyes landed on him, he sensed it, turning to look in that direction.
