Yang Dong actually went to ask, he asked Luo Heng.
Luo Heng looked at him and said, "You kid, you don't study hard, but you're quite concerned about these things. Who they are, what does it have to do with you?"
Yang Dong grabbed Luo Heng's sleeve and shook it, saying, "Master, I'm just curious! Just tell me, it won't hurt you to tell me."
He's even learned to act cute.
Luo Heng found him rather unsettling.
Luo Heng coughed and said, "His family is said to be in business, but I don't know the specifics."
"I don't even know."
Yang Dong muttered to himself.
Luo Heng glanced at him sideways: "We're only responsible for teaching you, why would we care what your families do? Do you think we have nothing better to do all day?"
"Okay, okay."
Yang Dong turned and ran away in a flash, without even looking back.
When he returned to class.
Zhang Heng was in their class, handing out candy to each student, saying that he was new here and asked them to give him lots of pointers.
Yang Dong was stunned.
Why does what he says sound exactly like what my own father usually says?
Song Dong also felt that Zhang Heng was acting strangely, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
Xie Shang and the others accepted the candy, but didn't say much.
Yang Dong accepted the candy with a smile and asked, "Zhang Heng, I heard your family is in business. What kind of shop do you run?"
Upon hearing this...
Zhang Heng opened his mouth and said, "I'm not very clear about our family's business. I only know that we own a clothing store, but I don't know what other stores we have."
How could you not know your own business?
He's probably not the only child in his family.
Yang Dong thought to himself.
Song Dong hadn't spoken yet.
Zhang Heng approached him and said, "I heard your name is Song Dong. You hadn't studied before, but you caught up with the Luo family's private school in no time. You're amazing."
Song Dong smiled and said, "It's all thanks to the teachers' excellent instruction."
Seeing him say that.
Zhang Heng continued speaking, following his lead.
“Before I came here, my father told me that none of Master Luo and his classmates had any official titles, not even the lowest level of the imperial examination. Is that true? I don’t think so. I think they taught very well.”
Xie Shang, who had been silent until now, finally spoke.
“What was your father thinking? He knew this all along, yet he still sent you here to study.”
Zhang Heng then said, "This has nothing to do with my father. I came here of my own volition. I heard there aren't many students here, so I decided to study here. I don't really like private schools and academies that are too crowded..."
He heard, he heard, where did he hear that?
Asking around is more like it.
Xie Shang did not speak to Zhang Heng again.
Zhang Heng didn't stay there long, saying he would visit them when he had time, and then went back to his class.
After he left.
Xie Shang said to Song Dong, "If Zhang Heng comes again in the future, you should have less contact with him and talk to him less."
"Why?"
Song Dong asked curiously.
Xie Shang rolled her eyes at him and said, "Aren't you supposed to be pretty smart? Don't you think he's deliberately getting close to you?"
Did you deliberately approach him?
He also got close to them, okay!
Song Dong finally understood what was strange. Zhang Heng was not like an ordinary child. He was more mature than ordinary children, and his actions seemed to be instructed by someone.
"oh."
Xie Shang rolled his eyes speechlessly.
Song Dong sat down and took out the candy Zhang Heng had given him. Each candy came in a box, the boxes were quite exquisite, and the candy looked good too. This must have cost quite a bit of money per box, right?
go home.
Song Dong told Song Xia about this.
Song Xia asked him to show her the candy.
They had bought candy before when they were doing business, but she had never seen the candy that Song Dong took out.
"Second sister, can I eat this candy?"
Song Dong asked from the side.
After Song Xia found out what was going on, she said, "If it's not poisonous, you can eat it."
Song Dong: "..."
My second sister has to be so scary.
Instead of investigating the source of the sugar, Song Xia went directly to Ji Ying and asked him to send someone to secretly follow Zhang Heng and investigate his background.
This investigation...
She soon found out who Zhang Heng was.
I told Song Dong that very night.
Song Dong looked puzzled: "Second sister, Zhang Heng is the grandson of the headmaster of Zhang's Private School. Why doesn't he study at their school but at Luo's Private School?"
What do you think?
Song Xia countered with a question to Song Dong.
Song Dong was taken aback and said, "Could he be after me? He didn't say much to me."
"You should get to know him better."
Song Xia also told Song Dong to be careful in everything he did and not to go anywhere alone with him.
He told me to take the food he was given home and make sure it was safe before eating it.
The next few days.
Song Dong noticed that Zhang Heng would come to play with him and talk to him every day, but he would not stay for long before going to play with other people.
He looks much like any other child.
but.
Not long after.
Song Dong then saw him sneaking towards the backyard.
He wasn't staying here, so what was he doing in the backyard?
Song Dong thought for a moment and followed.
Zhang Heng was very cautious, constantly looking around, which made Song Dong not dare to follow him too closely. As a result, he soon lost track of where Zhang Heng had gone.
Where did he go?
Song Donggang wanted to look around.
Xie Shang pulled him from behind.
His sudden action startled Song Dong so much that she almost screamed.
"Xie Shang, you..."
Xie Shang raised his hand and covered Song Dong's mouth.
Song Dong was stunned for a moment and looked in the direction he was looking. He saw Zhang Heng walk out from the side, looking around.
So that's how it is.
He just hid.
Did he suspect someone was following him?
Fortunately, Xie Shang stopped him.
otherwise.
If he goes out, won't he see everything clearly?
"Let's follow them and see."
Xie Shang said something in a low voice and walked forward.
Song Dong imitated him, hunching over and walking slowly forward.
They hadn't walked far when they saw Zhang Heng squatting on the ground, petting the cat. He seemed to like it very much; not content with just petting it, he picked it up and gently pinched its ears and tail.
Could it be that they've misunderstood?
Song Dong wanted to watch some more, but Xie Shang pulled him away.
As soon as they entered the front yard, the school bell rang.
"Xie Shang, he..."
Xie Shang interrupted Song Dong, saying, "Don't ask me, I don't know either."
"Should we tell the Master and the others?"
Song Dong was worried that Zhang Heng would do something bad.
Xie Shang's gaze fell on him and he said, "What do you say? That we followed him and found him petting a cat in the backyard?"
"It's always better to be careful."
Song Dong decided to talk to Luo Heng.
Xie Shang neither agreed nor stopped it.
Song Dong was worried that Zhang Heng would find out, so he didn't go to see Luo Heng for the time being.
Until the private school let out.
He only went to find Luo Heng after Zhang Heng left.
After finishing his story with Luo Heng, Song Dong said, "Master, what I said is true. You'd better be careful..."
"I understand. You can go home now."
Luo Heng rubbed Song Dong's head.
Why is he so calm?
Could it be that he already knows?
Song Dong was distracted when he got home because of this, so much so that he didn't hear Song Xia calling him several times.
"Song Dong, what are you thinking, you little rascal!"
