Bab 185: Another surprise student, and another.

After the rooftop visit, madam Qian pulled Alix aside for a private conversation. They were joined by the unidentified woman that kept sending Alix furtive glances. 

It made her a bit uncomfortable and as soon as they found themselves isolated on the steps leading into the main building, Alix shrugged her hand away from the madam Qian.

She set herself apart from the two women, standing to one one side and looked at Madam Qian. "Erm, madam Qian, not that I do not appreciate your help but what are you two being cagey about?"

Madam Qian put her hand on Alix's arm. Alix was coming to the realization that the woman was quite touchy when you got to know her. 

"Teacher Xi Xi, It's not something bad, it's actually good news." She used informal language, switching from the young madam address she had been using earlier.
