During class that afternoon, the sky suddenly became dark, and not long after, it began to rain heavily.
The rain did not stop until school was over. Many students who did not bring umbrellas were trapped in the school, waiting for their parents to come and pick them up with rain gear.
As parents came one after another, the number of students in the class gradually decreased.
Zhao Susu looked at the crackling raindrops outside the window and felt a little worried.
She was not worried about not being able to go back, but she worried that Ma Hongwu and Ma Hongwen, the two siblings, were still in the classroom!
But she didn’t know that what made her more worried was still yet to come.
Lu Zhou and Zhao Jingcheng actually came to her classroom to find her!
Zhao Suisui stared at Zhao Jingcheng with wide eyes, and the other shrugged at her, indicating that he was powerless.
There was no other way, Zhao Suisui could only take out the balled-up army green raincoat from under the table leg and said: “I brought the raincoat, Brother, Brother Lu Zhou, why don’t we go back now?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Ma Hongwu’s voice came from the classroom again, and she only heard him say impatiently: “Why did you come just now? It’s so slow!”
“Brother, don’t talk to Mom like that. She’s all soaked.” Ma Hongwen said with some concern.
Ma Hongwen and Xu Man had a pretty good relationship.
After all, Xu Man looked and dressed well. Every time when she came to the school to pick them up, she could see the envious eyes of other classmates, so Ma Hongwen was also a little proud.
Ma Hongwen didn’t understand why her brother was targeting Xu Man like this.
Although she was not their biological mother, Xu Man was still very good to them.
Why did they have to make the relationship so stiff? So, Ma Hongwen was still willing to be a good daughter in front of Xu Man.
However, even Ma Hongwen herself didn’t know that the kindness she showed became part of the reason why Xu Man was able to persevere.
Zhao Suisui was struck by lightning when she heard their conversation. She looked toward the classroom door and saw Xu Man, who was soaked like a drowned chicken.
After reacting, Zhao Suisui looked at Lu Zhou first and saw that he was looking at the door of the classroom.
It was over!
Zhao Suisui’s brain buzzed and she could not say anything.
Xu Man wiped the rain off her face and looked at Zhao Suisui.
But she quickly looked away as if she was looking at a stranger, without even lingering for a moment.
Xu Man and the other two children left quickly.
Zhao Suisui finally found her voice. She asked tentatively, “Brother Lu Zhou, do you know that person just now? She is the parent of a classmate of ours, haha—”
Zhao Suisui laughed dryly.
Maybe Brother Lu Zhou had long forgotten what his mother looked like!
“I know who she is.” Lu Zhou replied indifferently.
“Wow, do you still remember her? Brother Lu Zhou, you have a good memory!”
Zhao Suisui spoke faster than her brain, and when she reacted, she wanted to sew her mouth shut!
Why did she answer?
“Well, I heard from Grandma that she was coming here.” Lu Zhou replied.
A month ago, Lu Zhou learned about this from the letter sent by Grandma Lu.
Grandma Lu must have been struggling for a long time before telling him that Xu Man was coming to Songnan City.
She didn’t say anything bad about Xu Man in front of Lu Zhou, but she just told Lu Zhou not to get too close to Xu Man.
After all, Grandma Lu hinted that Xu Man’s current husband was transferred to Songnan City, not because of a promotion…
However, Lu Zhou felt that there was no need to tell Zhao Suisui and the others about this.
“So, you knew it a long time ago, Brother Lu Zhou!” Zhao Suisui said in surprise.
She and her brother tried their best to prevent them from meeting…
Speaking of her brother, Zhao Suisui realized that Zhao Jingcheng seemed to have been silent all the time.
So, she turned her head to look at Zhao Jingcheng and asked, “Brother, why don’t you say anything?”
Zhao Jingcheng, who was leaning against the wall with his arms folded, changed his expression again and again. His eyes couldn’t help but look at Lu Zhou angrily.
It turned out that Lu Zhou had known about it for a long time. So, didn’t he behave like a fool these days?
Maybe Lu Zhou, this dog, had already laughed at him countless times in his heart!
Ah, today was another day that made him hate Lu Zhou even more!
He didn’t know why, but from the first sight, he hated Lu Zhou!
It seemed that his intuition was really accurate!
