"Um, Lu Wen pulled me over here and before I was done playing, he was taken away..."
At this time, Du Bin also realized that he had been set up by Lu Wen.
"Fuck! Just wait and see how I deal with him during evening study!"
Du Bin, who realized it later, couldn't help but curse.
"Brother, Sister Miaomiao is still here, don't say bad words!"
Du Chen helps Du Bin maintain his image.
"Also, this matter ends here. Don't bother Lu Wen anymore. Just pretend this never happened and stay away from him from now on!"
After being beaten up this time, Du Chen didn't want to cause trouble again. Moreover, the academic style of the No. 1 Middle School in the city was very strict, and fighting would most likely lead to expulsion, especially for high school students. Anyway, it was no longer nine years of compulsory education, so if they were expelled, they would be expelled.
"Chenchen, is that all?"
Du Bin asked Du Chen in disbelief. Du Chen was usually a vengeful person, so why would he just let it go this time?
"Brother, first of all, the fact that Lv Wen pulled you over here shows that he has a lot of contact with these idle people. You don't want to be bothered by these idle people every day in the future, do you? And you have no evidence that Lv Wen is setting you up!"
"Do you think I'm afraid of them?" Du Bin said to Du Chen unconvinced.
"Brother, do you think this is our living area? We have Uncle Ding in the living area who can help us. We don't know anyone in the city!"
Du Chen explained to Du Bin, and Ding Miaomiao next to him nodded in agreement.
"Second point, brother, don't you know how strict the rules are at City No. 1 Middle School? Fighting will most likely get you expelled. What will you do then?"
"The school can't expel students, it can only persuade them to withdraw."
Du Bin's voice was lower this time, and he was obviously lacking in confidence.
"Brother, you're talking about the nine-year compulsory education period, where schools can't proactively expel students. But you're in high school now! That doesn't apply to you!"
"Besides, No. 1 Middle School is the best middle school in the city, and high school is the most important. They're aiming for a high college entrance exam admission rate! For the sake of academic ethics, they might make an example of you. If you get expelled, you'll have to think about the consequences!"
Du Chen had to make the matter sound more serious, but no one dared to bet on this. What if the school really took drastic measures?
"Is it that serious?"
Du Bin swallowed and asked Du Chen, if he was expelled from school, Du Bin could not imagine how Comrade Lao Du and his mother would deal with him.
"Nonsense! No. 1 High School in the city doesn't need a few students like you! Think about it, our house in the city was bought by your parents specifically for you to go to high school. Think about the consequences yourself!"
Hearing this, Du Bin couldn't help but shudder.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. I won't cause any trouble for him!"
"That's right, brother. Don't worry, I won't tell my parents about what happened today, right, Sister Miaomiao?"
After speaking to Du Bin, Du Chen asked Ding Miaomiao who was standing beside him, and Du Bin also looked at Ding Miaomiao expectantly.
"Well, I'll listen to Chenchen this time. You were also deceived by Lu Wen this time, but I won't help you hide it next time!"
Ding Miaomiao also nodded, agreeing with Du Chen's opinion.
Soon, the three of them returned to the eyewear store.
"Why are you three back so late today? Hurry and eat, or you'll be late for evening study!"
The second floor of the optical shop had been converted into a small warehouse, partly used to store clothes from the clothing store, partly for lenses and frames, and an area with a few bunk beds for occasional rest, and also some pots and pans. Seeing the three people coming up, Ren Surong hurriedly urged Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao to go, as they had to attend evening self-study.
"Mom, I was delayed at school for a while. I don't know how to answer two questions, so I went to ask the teacher. My brother and sister Miaomiao are waiting for me there!"
Just as Du Bin was thinking of an excuse, Du Chen took the initiative to speak up.
"Do you have any questions you don't understand? Ask the teacher?"
Du Chen's mother looked at Du Chen suspiciously. It was not strange that he didn't know how to answer questions, but it was a bit strange that Du Chen didn't go home after school to ask the teacher first.
"Well, it's mainly due to tonight's homework, otherwise I won't be able to finish it!"
Facing his mother's doubts, Du Chen lied calmly.
Du Chen was facing his mother alone here, while Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao were already sitting there eating. They were very pressed for time. Fortunately, Du Chen played billiards very quickly, otherwise they would definitely be late after dinner. Now they had to finish their meal quickly and run to school.
"Alright, don't stay so late next time. And Du Bin and Miao Miao, don't wait for Chen Chen if he has something to do. You two still have to go to evening self-study, so you don't have enough time to eat!"
Ren Surong was teaching Du Chen and the other two a lesson.
"Okay, I understand, Mom. I'm done eating and will go to school now!"
"Auntie, I'm done eating too!"
As soon as Du Chen's mother finished speaking, Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao had already finished their dinner. Yes, they had finished their dinner!
"Look, this is good for your health! Be more careful next time and drive slower!"
Ren Surong reminded the two of them again. It took less than five minutes to go into the house to eat. This was too fast.
Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao hurried off to evening self-study, while Du Chen sat on a chair and ate his dinner slowly.
"Mom, are you still waiting for my dad?"
"You eat first. When your dad comes back later, I'll eat with your dad, Uncle Ding, and Aunt Xiaojia!"
Du Chen's mother is also very busy every day. Every night, Du Chen, Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao eat first. One reason is that it is not good for children to eat too late since they are growing, and the other is that Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao have to rush to attend evening self-study.
It was a good thing that Jia Xiaomin didn't have classes in the evening. Comrade Lao Du picked up Lao Ding and his wife and came back around seven o'clock, so the two families and their children could have dinner together.
If Jia Xiaomin has classes before school is over, it will be almost eight o'clock when the three of them get back. Usually, the four adults will come again.
At the beginning, Lao Ding and Jia Xiaomin felt very embarrassed. It was already embarrassing that Ding Miaomiao had to be taken care of by others every day. Now it was not acceptable for two adults to eat and drink at their place for free.
However, Comrade Lao Du was a hospitable person, and Ren Surong had her own plans, so she insisted that the two families have dinner together. Otherwise, Lao Ding and Jia Xiaomin would come back to cook, and it was uncertain what time it would be after dinner.
Lao Ding and Jia Xiaomin wanted to give money, but Lao Du and Ren Surong would definitely not accept it. In the end, Lao Ding and his wife would bring some rice, flour, vegetables and fruits from time to time, and Ren Surong could no longer refuse. Now the two families have formed this tacit understanding.
If they come back early, the two families will have dinner together. If they come back late, the children will eat first and the four adults will eat later.
Not long after Du Chen finished eating and put down his bowl and chopsticks, Comrade Lao Du and others came back.
As soon as he went up to the second floor, Comrade Lao Du called Du Chen over.
"Second brother, come here! Did you know that Liu Hongjiang was beaten with a sack?"
"What?"
