She thought she would be able to live in peace like this, but Tang Shiyao kept chatting with Tonghua all night and kept persuading her to act, which made her feel listless when she got up to go to work the next morning.
Kindergarten Office
"Teacher Tong, I see you don't seem very energetic this morning. Did you not sleep well last night?"
Teacher Zhang next to me spoke with concern.
Tonghua slumped weakly on the table, her tone somewhat unclear: "Last night... I was too excited... I was tossed too much..."
Tonghua, who was so troubled by Tang Shiyao last night that she was unconscious at work, didn't realize there was anything wrong with what she said.
The office, which was not very quiet to begin with, suddenly became so quiet that only the sound of breathing remained.
The teachers looked at each other in bewilderment. One teacher was working on handicrafts at his desk. Suddenly, after hearing these words, he couldn't help but look up at Tonghua.
Is it okay to say such lewd words in the office?
Wang Chunfeng covered her mouth and laughed, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. Teacher Tong really doesn't treat us as outsiders at all. She even said something like that."
Tonghua hadn't reacted yet: "What?"
Wang Chunfeng said sarcastically, "How dare you say something like that!"
Tonghua said in confusion, "What did I say?"
Didn't she just say that her best friend came over last night and she was so excited that she kept pestering her to chat the whole night and she was exhausted? What's there to hide from her?
Unexpectedly, Wang Chunfeng mistakenly thought Tonghua was provoking her and deliberately asked her to repeat what she had just said. She immediately said angrily, "You are so shameless! This is a kindergarten, not your home. What if a child hears these dirty words and learns bad habits?"
Although he didn't know what he had done to offend her again, Tonghua said unwillingly: "Children's hearts are pure, unlike you who see everyone as dirty. As the saying goes, you are what you see..."
"you!"
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, other teachers came over to mediate.
"Teacher Wang, calm down, don't be angry!"
......
Teacher Zhang also came over to persuade Tonghua: "It's lunch time, Teacher Tong, why don't you go eat with us!"
"yes!"
"OK."
Tonghua didn't want to waste his time on an insignificant person, so he agreed to have dinner with the other two teachers.
As soon as they walked out of the kindergarten gate, they saw a car parked in front of them.
One of the teachers said, "This car looks so familiar!"
Teacher Zhang said, "Isn't this the same car that came to pick up Teacher Tong last time?"
Tonghua looked up and saw a man coming out of the car. It was Zhou Rongsheng.
Zhou Rongsheng walked over to Tonghua, picked up the insulated lunch box in his hand, and said, "I brought you lunch."
Tonghua hesitated for a moment: "I have already agreed to have dinner with my colleagues..."
Teacher Zhang patted Tonghua's arm with great understanding and said, "It's not easy for them to come all the way here. Let's have dinner together another day. Bye."
"Teacher Tong, we'll leave first!"
After watching the two walk away, Zhou Rongsheng handed the insulated lunch box to Tonghua:
"Grandma asked me to come and bring you food."
"oh."
"How was work today?"
"fine."
"I'll pick you up this afternoon."
"good."
"Why do you look unhappy?"
"No."
In fact, Tonghua felt a little tired, and she didn't know how to face Zhou Rongsheng. Seeing the meaningful looks on her colleagues' faces when they left, they seemed to have misunderstood the relationship between her and them, but she didn't know how to explain it. After all, Grandma Zhang and Zhou Rongsheng both had good intentions.
After a moment's silence, seeing that Tonghua was still standing there with his head down, not moving, Zhou Rongsheng spoke.
"Forget it, I'll just watch you finish eating before I leave. It won't cost you a little while anyway."
Zhou Rongsheng took Tonghua to the outside of the kindergarten and turned left to a stone table a few meters away. If someone had just arrived, they might not have found this place.
Although Zhou Rongsheng knew when Tonghua usually got off work, he would sometimes come to the door early to wait for her. When he didn't want to stay in the car waiting for someone, Zhou Rongsheng would sit here and wait. When he guessed that Tonghua was about to get off work, he would go back to the car so that Tonghua would think he had just arrived.
Otherwise, given Tonghua's personality, if she knew he had waited for so long and felt that he had wasted so much of her time, she would definitely not let him pick her up again.
The meal was eaten in silence, with only the sound of the spoon hitting the bowl wall. The warm sunlight shining on people made Tonghua even more sleepy. Every once in a while, there would be a sound of Tonghua sniffing. Seeing her eating listlessly, Zhou Rongsheng couldn't help it and took the initiative to suggest:
"Why don't you take a rest in my car?"
Tonghua waved her hands weakly: "I'd better just lie down and rest in the office."
"How can you rest well lying down? Let's go to my car."
Considering that he still had to teach the children in the afternoon and needed to maintain sufficient energy, Tonghua agreed: "Okay then."
After dinner, Tonghua was about to take the initiative to clean up the lunch box, but Zhou Rongsheng got there first.
"I see you're so tired, let me do it, you go and rest first."
Zhou Rongsheng quickly cleaned up the table and put the lunch box in the trunk. Then he laid the back of the car seat flat so that Tonghua could lie down more comfortably.
Tonghua fell asleep as soon as she lay down. It seemed that she was really tired after coming out.
She lay flat on the seat with her hands clasped in front of her chest. This sleeping posture looked very well-behaved, just like her personality.
In order to maintain ventilation, the car window was not completely closed, and a gap was left. The sunlight was refracted into the car through the gap and just hung on Fairy Tale's neck, like a shining necklace.
It makes the fair skin look more transparent and translucent.
I don’t know what it feels like to touch it?
Shocked by his own thoughts, Zhou Rongsheng suddenly came to his senses and realized that he almost flirted with the other person.
Zhou Rongsheng suddenly felt ashamed. Although it was just an idea of his own, even such an idea was blasphemous to others.
Zhou Rongsheng's breathing became rapid and his face flushed, he felt ashamed of his thoughts.
He immediately left the driver's seat in a panic and came to a quiet and deserted place.
Looking up at the towering trees not far away, with their upright trunks and the breeze blowing on his face, Zhou Rongsheng's heart gradually calmed down.
And in a place that Zhou Rongsheng didn't notice, someone was quietly approaching him...
