“I heard that he is now in the same school as Xiao Wu and Wen Wen. His name is Lu Zhou, right? After all, you and him are mother and son, so you should keep in touch with each other, right?”
Seeing that Xu Man didn’t speak, Ma Wei said again, “Can’t you do this?”
Xu Man said in a low voice with tears in her eyes, “Let me think about it…”
Seeing Xu Man’s attitude loosened, Ma Wei’s face also softened.
He sat down next to Xu Man, hugged her tightly in his arms, and whispered to comfort her, “Man Man, I’m not forcing you. I want you to do this to make our lives better.” (T/N: Then, you are working harder, man! How could you rely on your wife’s ex-husband? Despicable!)
Xu Man leaned in his arms and closed her eyes.
Tears slid down her cheeks. She pursed her lips and said nothing.
Neither of the two people in the room noticed that there was a slight sound outside the door, like the sound of someone leaving quietly.

The next day was still a school day.
After experiencing yesterday’s chaos, Ma Hongwen guessed what was going on at home and was somewhat reluctant on the way to school.
Xu Man, who was sending Ma Hongwu and Ma Hongwen to school, was also a little out of shape.
She seemed a little dazed and almost bumped into other people’s bicycles several times.
Faced with Ma Hongwu’s scolding, she no longer showed a hurt expression on her face, but she pretended not to hear it.
Ma Hongwen glanced at Xu Man several times along the way, but she didn’t say anything after all.
When she arrived at the school gate, Xu Man looked at the school gate. Her steps seemed to be nailed to the spot, and she didn’t move for a long time.
“Mom, do you want to come in?” Ma Hongwen asked.
After hearing what Ma Hongwen said, Xu Man came back to her senses.
She shook her head hastily and said quickly: “I won’t go in. You should go to school quickly.”
After that, Xu Man left like she was escaping.
Ma Hongwen looked at her back for a while and then slowly walked into the school.
Unlike the bustling days in the past, Ma Hongwen’s surroundings became particularly deserted today.
All the girls who used to surround her disappeared.
Ma Hongwen still walked with her chin held high, but the girls that she usually didn’t want to talk to actually ignored her.
Ma Hongwen felt that it was one thing for her to look down on others and not want to talk to them, but it was another thing to be ignored by others…
Not to mention that she also saw some people showing mocking eyes to her, and some people gathered together pointing fingers at her.
Ma Hongwen was so angry all the way!
She came to her class in a bad mood.
As soon as she walked to the door of the class, the classmates in the class who were originally lively suddenly became quiet when they saw her and began to talk in a low voice.
Ma Hongwen felt extremely aggrieved and returned to her seat dissatisfied.
Her deskmate was still Ma Xiaoyu.
At this time, Ma Xiaoyu was talking to the girl at the back table. When she saw Ma Hongwen coming, she just glanced at her and continued to talk to the girl at the back table.
But in Ma Hongwen’s eyes, Ma Xiaoyu was different from others.
The difference was that Ma Xiaoyu was more flattering than others, and the two of them were cousins. Now that she saw that Ma Xiaoyu had changed her attitude, Ma Hongwen couldn’t stand it anymore.
She kicked Ma Xiaoyu’s chair leg and said in a bad tone: “What’s your attitude!”
Ma Xiaoyu turned her head in annoyance and cursed: “Are you sick? Why did you kick my chair?”
“So, what if I kicked it?!” Ma Hongwen was also angry.
Ma Hongwen never took Ma Xiaoyu seriously. In her opinion, Ma Xiaoyu was just a follower. How dare a follower go against her?
This was simply unbearable!
