Chapter Thirty-Four: Zhou's Mother's Dilemma



Chapter Thirty-Four: Zhou's Mother's Dilemma

However, Xu Yihuan was sitting on the sofa at this moment.

They watched them with amusement, like outsiders watching a farce.

Given Sheng Yuhuai's fighting prowess, Wu Qingqing would only suffer losses if she encountered him.

Wu Qingqing looked at Zhou Yanzhe again, her gaze somewhat helpless.

He's been criticized so harshly, surely he can't just stay silent?

Zhou Yanzhe's face turned cold as soon as Sheng Yuhuai started hurling insults.

He just didn't know how to yell back.

He could only stare at Xu Yihuan.

Xu Yihuan was being stared at by so many eyes.

We can't just stand by and do nothing.

He took a deep breath and impatiently raised his head.

"Alright, stop arguing. You can always take your gifts back later."

"Don't make me drink that empty promise you made, or Uncle Sheng will come after me again."

"Now wash your hands and get ready to eat. You're all guests, so I can't possibly not feed you."

After Xu Yihuan finished speaking, she stood up and prepared to walk towards the kitchen.

"Hey, Miss Huanhuan!"

Wang Ma called out to Xu Yihuan, her expression turning troubled.

Xu Yihuan stopped in her tracks.

"What's wrong?"

Wang Ma unconsciously rubbed her hands together, looking a little nervous, and spoke haltingly.

"Today... today my husband isn't coming home for dinner, so I... I didn't cook much food."

"I'm going to cook now! Please wait a little longer."

Just as Xu Yihuan was about to nod in agreement, she heard a clear and crisp voice.

"No need, Qingqing and I have something to do, so we'll head back first."

Zhou Yanzhe's eyelids were half-closed, and his expression was indifferent.

Wu Qingqing turned her head sharply and looked at Zhou Yanzhe in disbelief.

go back?

How can they go back?!

Zhou Yanzhe, however, seemed not to have received her gaze.

He said to himself, "We were just here to deliver some things today."

"The goods have been delivered, and we should be going now. Happy Dragon Boat Festival."

In any case, Xu Yihuan likes him. He can wait until he gets the love letter Chen Zhiyuan mentioned before making a move.

Moreover...

The thought that this was Zhou's mother's order made him very anxious.

Zhou Yanzhe felt even more irritated.

An inexplicable emotion gave him an urge to go against Zhou's mother.

Xu Yihuan immediately replied, "Okay, then I won't see you off."

Zhou Yanzhe didn't pay attention to her reaction.

He nodded slightly, then turned and left with Wu Qingqing.

Until Zhou Yanzhe disappeared from sight.

Xu Yihuan immediately walked quickly to the dining table.

He beckoned Sheng Yuhuai over.

Sitting at the dining table.

Sheng Yuhuai sat obediently next to Xu Yihuan.

However, they weren't very enthusiastic.

He genuinely loved Wang Ma's cooking.

It's just that it's probably not so easy to eat now.

The idea had barely formed in my mind.

Wang Ma took out the cooked dishes one after another from the kitchen and placed them on the dining table.

There are at least ten or so.

Sheng Yuhuai was dumbfounded.

Xu Yihuan seemed to have known all along.

Without any surprise, she greeted Sheng Yuhuai, "Eat up, eat up."

Aunt Wang smiled warmly and said, "Didn't you just finish your exams today? This meal was originally intended to celebrate Miss Huanhuan's performance."

...

Zhou Yanzhe walked out the door.

Wu Qingqing looked at Zhou Yanzhe with a worried expression.

"So, are we just going back like this now?"

After all, Zhou's mother's personality was what it was...

If they go back now, they'll probably face a lot of trouble.

Wu Qingqing was a little worried.

Zhou Yanzhe frowned slightly but quickly calmed down.

"fine."

"Let's go."

Sure enough, I had just pushed open the door to go home.

Then I saw that Zhou's mother had already sat down and started eating.

When they saw them return, he didn't hesitate to give them a sharp look.

Zhou's mother was plump and dressed in silk clothes, adorned with jewels.

His gaze casually swept over the two people at the door.

That glance carried immense pressure.

Wu Qingqing was startled and instinctively took a step back.

"Why are you back? Have you eaten?"

Zhou Yanzhe shook his head.

As if knowing what Zhou's mother wanted to say

Zhou Yanzhe spoke first.

"No, no one's home at Huanhuan's house today. Aunt Wang didn't cook much rice. There's no point in us staying there and waiting."

"So you just came back like that?" Zhou's mother had no intention of letting them off so easily.

Zhou Yanzhe pursed his lips.

His eyes flickered twice.

He whispered something in Zhou's mother's ear.

Upon hearing this, Zhou's mother lightly raised her eyes to look at him.

Are you serious?

His voice was soft, yet carried a sense of pressure.

Wu Qingqing broke out in a cold sweat, her heart pounding wildly.

Zhou Yanzhe stared straight at him without fear.

"Yes, it's true."

The open and honest look in his eyes had already convinced Zhou's mother to believe him to some extent.

Zhou's mother nodded.

"Okay, this won't happen again. You guys go ahead and eat."

After saying that, Zhou's mother turned around and left the dining table, not bothering to say a single word to Wu Qingqing the whole time.

The story of how Zhou's mother became Mrs. Zhou was quite convoluted. Seeing Zhou Yanzhe's usefulness, she would naturally offer him up without hesitation.

However, Zhou Yanzhe had long been used to being treated this way.

Actually, he wasn't exactly lying, since Xu Yihuan had already written a love letter, hadn't she?

They will definitely be together in the future, there's no rush.

Zhou Yanzhe saw his mother go upstairs.

Only then did my tense nerves relax.

"It's alright, let's eat."

After speaking to Wu Qingqing, Zhou Yanzhe sat down at the dining table.

Zhou's mother had a small appetite, and the dishes were as if they hadn't been touched.

Wu Qingqing watched Zhou Yanzhe's retreating figure.

A pang of heartache welled up in her eyes.

How could such a good guy like Zhou Yanze be snatched away by Xu Yihuan?

Fortunately, the results are already in my hands.

When he received Xu Yihuan's grades, he and Zhou Yanzhe were admitted to Nanjing University together.

They could then stay away from Zhou's mother and all the hustle and bustle of Yuncheng, and be together without any burdens!

After seeing Sheng Yuhuai off.

Xu Yihuan returned to her bedroom, took a shower, and then lay comfortably on the bed.

Perhaps she was too comfortable, Xu Yihuan always felt that she had forgotten something very important.

But before I could think about it, I fell asleep from exhaustion.

The weekend went by very quickly.

on Monday.

The quiet school has become lively again.

The senior high school students have just returned from their weekend break and are full of energy.

The first and second-year high school students have been doing this for two days in a row. Logically speaking, their resentment should be even greater than if they had eaten ten evil sword immortals.

But for some reason, as soon as I entered the school gate, I could hear people chatting loudly in the building across the street.

Xu Yihuan carried her schoolbag to the classroom.

As soon as I sat down, I heard my classmates chatting.

Duan Qing, who sat at the back of the table, patted Xu Yihuan on the shoulder.

"Xu Yihuan, do you know what happened on the other side?"

In the past, Xu Yihuan was a well-known gossipmonger in the class. Generally speaking, if you asked her about anything, she would always know the answer.

However, that only applies to Xu Yihuan in the past.

Hearing this, Xu Yihuan was dumbfounded.

"What? What is it?"

Duan Qing looked surprised: "Huh? You didn't know?"

He then scratched his head and said, "Actually, I'm not really sure. I think it's something like the students in the first or second year of high school across the street were caught having a relationship."

Xu Yihuan blinked.

"While they were having extra classes on the weekend?"

Duan Qing's eyes lit up, and she said enthusiastically.

"Yeah, yeah! I heard that the boy wrote a love letter to the girl, and then folded it into a paper airplane and threw it at her during class."

"That class seemed to be taught by the talented students. They threw it away during class, and as a result, they were caught by the teachers who were patrolling the classroom."

"It seems like he'll be suspended from school for three days and sent home to reflect on his actions."

Cai Zi is a Chinese language teacher for the first year of high school; he only teaches the first year.

As the saying goes, high school freshmen come and go, but talented individuals remain constant.

The talented student was also notorious throughout the school for being blind to the truth; no matter what happened in his class, he would ignore it entirely.

This is why the students dared to do such bold things.

I just didn't expect to be caught by the teacher who was observing the class, which is pretty bad.
