Chapter 255: Eagle and Chicks

For the past many days, this was the first time the two of them had talked so much to each other. As they were talking, they have reached the Torres Mansion.
Bryce Torres sat in the car rubbing his eyes and looking around the surrounding.
“Hey, why aren’t ghosts around our house?” Bryce Torres asked.
He looked at Lauren Torres waiting for her answer. He had taken her as a ghost world encyclopedia.
“Ghosts do not dare to approach places with strong Yang Energy. The Torres Mansion is a geomantic treasure land with strong Yang Energy. Therefore, other than they obtain help from others or have a high cultivation level, ghosts are unable to get close to this place.”
“That is good.” After saying that, Bryce Torres quickly got out of the car. As he ran back to the Torres family home, he said, “I do not want to go out anymore for the rest of my life!”
Lauren Torres was speechless.
Of course, Bryce Torres’s wish would not come true as he still had to find the female ghost together with them.
Lauren Torres suddenly felt looking forward to it. Although Bryce Torres was usually quite noisy, it should be fun to accomplish the mission with him.
After returning home, Lauren Torres immediately went back to her room to catch up on her sleep. Franklin Torres did not have the habit of going back to sleep, so he went straight to the study room and started working.
Since they were not in a hurry today, Franklin Torres sent Lauren Torres to the kindergarten.
When they walked out of the courtyard of Torres Mansion, they saw Bryce Torres standing on the balcony of the 3rd floor, squinting his eyes and looking into the distance.
Franklin Torres looked up and shook the keys in his hand making a bell ringing sound.
“Bryce, what are you doing up there?”
“Brother, I’m looking for a ghost.”
‘He’s really looking for a ghost,’ thought Lauren Torres.
Who would look for ghosts?
Bryce Torres had gone crazy. This was the conclusion by Franklin Torres and Lauren Torres after their collective validation.
Franklin Torres parked his car at the entrance of the kindergarten. Even before she got off the car, Lauren Torres had seen Ruby Cromwell walking towards the entrance.
She quickly said goodbye to Franklin Torres, jumped out of the car, and ran toward Ruby Cromwell without looking back.
Now only Franklin Torres understood what Ben Carson meant when he said that LaurenTorres had a strong ability to adapt. She did not miss him at all.
Lauren Torres ran happily and caught up with Ruby Cromwell.
Today, Ruby Cromwell only had a simple ponytail. She did not look so well.
She greeted Ruby Cromwell and asked, “Ruby, why didn’t you come to class yesterday? I have already put everything the teacher gave you in your drawer.”
Ruby Cromwell nodded and said, “Okay, thank you.”
The two of them followed the crowd and walked to their class.
The morning class was nothing new, but the last class was physical education. The children were like birds being released from their cages as they ran around the playground.
Lauren Torres ran so fast that her face turned red. She took off her clothes and was only wearing short sleeves. She was playing the eagle and chicken game with the children.
Ruby Cromwell also joined in. She was one of the chicks on the team.
As the physical education teacher said that the class was for then children to train the body, the children were not allowed to read. Thus Ruby Cromwell was forced to join in the game.
Lauren Torres, who played the role of an eagle in the game, did not manage to catch a single chick.
During the break, she gulped down a mouthful of water as she walked to Ruby Cromwell’s side.
“Ruby, are you not hot? I can see that you are sweating. You can take off your coat”, said Lauren Torres.
It was almost noon, and the temperature was rising. The sun was shining directly on them. Most of the children were only wearing short sleeves. Only Ruby Cromwell was still wearing a long-sleeved jacket wrapping around her tightly. It made one feel hot just by looking at her.
Ruby Cromwell shook her head. “It doesn’t matter. It’s fine not to take it off.”
The group of “chicks” behind her came to provoke the “eagle” again. Lauren Torres put down her glass of water and said, “Let’s go, Ruby. Let’s continue playing the game.”
The two of them ran over to continue their P.E. class.
During lunch, the children lined up together to get soup.
Ruby Cromwell stood behind Lauren Torres. Joie Donahue and Milo Barker were behind them.
The two of them had an argument during the P.E. class and they now ignored each other. However, they are still together.
After Ruby Cromwell took the soup, the two fought to be the next person to take the soup. They pushed away from each other and spilled the soup in Ruby Cromwell’s hands.
The entire bowl of seaweed and egg soup was spilled on Ruby Cromwell’s clothes. Fortunately, the soup was lukewarm and she did not have a burn.
Joie Donahue and Milo Barker knew that they were in trouble, so they lowered their heads and stood there.
“Ruby, I am sorry.”
Ruby Cromwell was not bothered. She shook her head and said, “It’s okay.”
Then, she turned to the teacher and said, “Teacher, I am heading to the toilet to clean myself up.”
