Chapter 397 The Coward's Black Moonlight Witch 28
When Shen Xinran and Chu Bojian returned home, they saw Chen Lanru sitting under the eaves, chatting with He Baifeng.
He Baifeng looked at Chen Lanru, and said with a hint of emotion: "You have changed a lot since the last time we met."
Chen Lanru smiled and said in a low voice, "I can't help it. Something happened at home."
Chu Bojian's gaze inadvertently fell on the dark shadow behind Chen Lanru. His heartbeat suddenly accelerated and his body stiffened involuntarily.
He lowered his head and greeted politely, "Hello, Teacher Chen."
Then he quickly made an excuse and hurried back to his room.
He Baifeng was stunned for a moment, and looked at Chen Lanru with a hint of surprise in her eyes, "Are you a teacher?"
Chen Lanru smiled and nodded, "I am their homeroom teacher."
A trace of embarrassment flashed across He Baifeng's face. She turned back to her room, took out two hundred yuan, and handed it to Chen Lanru. "I really didn't know you were Niuniu's homeroom teacher. I'm returning this money to you. I'll ask you to take good care of Niuniu in school."
Chen Lanru didn't dare to accept the money. She waved her hands repeatedly and said, "What is He Xiangu doing? To be honest, I came here today to ask Tan Shi for help."
Shen Xinran probably guessed what Chen Lanru wanted to talk to her about, so she smiled at Chen Lanru and said, "Teacher Chen, come in and talk!"
Chen Lanru nodded to He Baifeng, then followed Shen Xinran into the middle room.
After seeing Shen Xinran put down her backpack, Chen Lanru spoke: "Thank you for your reminder. I have buried my daughter properly, but if possible, I would like to see her."
Shen Xinran nodded, then extended his hand, "According to the rules of Xuanmen, you are not allowed to do things for free."
Chen Lanru nodded, and immediately gave all the money she had to Shen Xinran, and asked: "Is this enough? If not, I can go get more."
Shen Xinran roughly counted them, but couldn't quite tell the difference. She put the money in her backpack and knocked on Chu Bojian's door.
After Chu Bojian opened the door, he poked his head out first. After looking around and seeing that there was no danger, he asked, "What are you doing?"
Shen Xinran replied: "Teacher Chen wants to see her daughter and needs to borrow your Yin Eye."
Chu Bojian took a step back and said, "If you want to gouge out my eyes, I will never agree."
Shen Xinran shook his head, "It's not that serious, just use a few of your tears."
Chu Bojian finally breathed a sigh of relief, "But I can't cry for the time being!"
Shen Xinran narrowed his eyes and smiled, "This is easy."
After saying that, she returned to her room and whispered a few words into Zheng Tong's ear.
Zheng Tong hesitated, "This isn't good!"
Shen Xinran pursed her lips slightly, "If you want your mother to see you, do as I say."
Zheng Tong nodded, walked through the wall and arrived at Chu Bojian's room.
As soon as Chu Bojian closed the door of his room, he saw Zheng Tong floating over from next door.
He was so frightened that he quickly raised the amulet that Shen Xinran had given him before and shouted, "Don't come over here, or I'll be rude to you!"
But Zheng Tong was not afraid of the amulet. She put her face in front of him and turned her neck 360 degrees.
"Ah!" Chu Bojian let out a loud scream and tears flowed uncontrollably.
When Shen Xinran heard the shout, he rushed to Chu Bojian's room, picked up the tears from his eyes, and smeared them on the corners of Chen Lanru's eyes.
Chen Lanru's vision was shrouded in a layer of hazy mist. In this vague mist, she actually caught a glimpse of the little face she had been thinking about day and night.
With trembling hands, she reached out to Zheng Tong, "Tongtong, I'm your mother."
Zheng Tong's voice was filled with joy, and she threw herself into Chen Lanru's arms, "Mom, you can finally see me!"
However, her body passed through Chen Lanru's body like a wisp of smoke. She stood by the wall, her little face full of panic.
This scene made Chen Lanru feel heartbroken. Her nose began to feel sour and tears flashed in her eyes.
But Shen Xinran's voice sounded at this time, "You can't cry now, and you only have five minutes. When Chu Bojian's tears dry up, the Yin Eyes you borrowed will disappear."
Chen Lanru took a deep breath, holding back her tears, and smiled at Zheng Tong, "Tongtong, it's mom who's sorry for you. You must take good care of yourself over there."
A smile bloomed on Zheng Tong's little face again. "Mommy, don't cry. Tongtong, it's not painful. Just like Daddy said, Tongtong will be fine once she wakes up."
Chen Lanru was stunned for a moment. "What do you mean by waking up and feeling better?"
Zheng Tong explained: "Tongtong fell off the swing and her body was in pain, but her father said it was okay and that the pain would go away when she woke up. Tongtong woke up and the pain really went away!"
Chen Lanru's heart was in turmoil. Zheng Guanqing, like her, rushed back after Tongtong's death. He held Tongtong's body and cried even more sadly than she did.
But Tongtong said that Zheng Guanqing spoke to her. Does that prove that Zheng Guanqing was watching Tongtong's death?
Chen Lanru covered her mouth, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. If it weren't for this meeting with her daughter, she might never have been able to uncover the truth.
As tears flowed, Zheng Tong's figure became blurred in Chen Lanru's sight until it disappeared.
Chen Lanru could only smile in the direction where Zheng Tong disappeared, "It doesn't matter, Mom will make those who hurt you pay the price they deserve."
He Baifeng watched Chen Lanru walk out of the room and immediately called out to her, "Teacher Chen, the food is almost ready. Let's eat first!"
Chen Lanru's face was pale. She smiled and shook her head. "Thank you for your kindness. I have something to do at home, so I'll leave first."
After Zheng Tong was buried, her soul could move freely. She said "Goodbye, sister" to Shen Xinran, and then followed her mother as usual.
Shen Xinran turned to the bedside. Chu Bojian was huddled in his quilt, shivering. She smiled, took a step forward, lifted the quilt, and reminded him, "They've already left."
Chu Bojian stuck his head out, looked around, and when he saw that there was no one around, he collapsed directly onto the bed.
He glared at Shen Xinran fiercely, "You're really going too far. I trust you so much, how could you let her scare me!"
Shen Xinran shrugged, "There's nothing I can do. Teacher Chen needs your tears."
Chu Bojian asked angrily, "You can see ghosts too, why don't you use your tears?"
Shen Xinran said seriously: "Of course it's because I can't cry."
Chu Bojian: “…”
So I am timid, so I deserve to be scared!
Shen Xinran turned around and went back to her room, took out her small notebook for keeping accounts, and crossed out a name on the page for Chu Bojian.
Humph, calling her a silly girl won’t scare you to death!
