Because Zhou Jie didn't know a lot, she finished very quickly, but the rest of the time was spent on explaining.
The two were just halfway through their explanation when Lu Ran came back in a hurry. He had gone to find Hong Qi and asked him to find someone to keep an eye on Zhang Xinglian, so he came back quite late.
"Rongrong, today I..." Lu Ran walked in with a big grin, but when he saw a stranger, he instantly became serious and looked a little unhappy.
Isn't this just a two-person world? Why is there suddenly an extra person?
Zhou Jie, a bystander, was originally shy. She saw that the man, who was originally happy, suddenly became unhappy when he saw her, and his eyes were stern and scary. She trembled, shrank her neck and dared not look up.
Seeing that he had frightened the little girl, Zhang Xingrong ordered him to go to the kitchen: "There's soup simmering in the kitchen. Go check the fire. It will only take another fifteen minutes."
Lu Ran was somewhat reluctant and looked at Zhou Jie again unhappily.
Zhou Jie felt like two knives were whizzing towards her. She hurried to attend the class, and after hearing the explanation, she ran away with the test paper!
So scary!
When she got home, Zhou Jie completely relaxed, completely changing her shy demeanor. "Mom and Dad, I'm telling you that Captain Lu Lian is back. He was so happy when he came back, his mouth almost grinning from ear to ear, but when he saw me, he became so unhappy, as if I owed him money!"
Zhou Da and Aunt Dazhu were quite curious.
"Really? Xiao Lu, there are times when your mouth stretches all the way to your ears?"
This is really strange. Lu Ran is usually very serious and will greet his elders politely, but I have never seen him smile so much that his mouth reaches his ears. This is really hard to imagine.
"Really? I saw it clearly, his mouth was grinning like this!" Zhou Jie even gestured with her hands. "But he looked so unhappy when he saw me. I thought for a long time, did I offend him? I've only seen him a few times in all these years, and I never dared to get close to him. Why does he dislike me so much? It's so scary, so scary! Just like grandma said, he's like a cold-faced devil!"
"Don't talk nonsense," Zhou Da said helplessly, "Don't tell anyone about the Cold-Faced King of Hell. You're ruining Xiao Lu's reputation."
Zhou Jie nodded: "Of course not, I'll go home and tell you."
"She's so shy when she goes out, how could she possibly tell anyone!" Aunt Dazhu shook her head. Her daughter was a bit of a tantrum at home, but timid outside, not missing her brothers and sisters at all. "Don't let your imagination run wild. Xiao Lu and Xiao Zhang have a good relationship, and he thinks his wife is the only one home, so he's happy. He's probably upset that you, an outsider, have bothered them. They've rarely been together, and they've finally come back this time, so they're sticking together like newlyweds!"
Zhou Da nodded. "This young couple has a really good relationship. A few days ago, Xiao Lu just came back and secretly asked me about Xiao Zhang's life in the compound. That guy thought I didn't know what he was thinking, hahahaha!"
Aunt Dazhu nodded. "No wonder. Xiao Meng has been complaining to everyone these past few days, saying that Xiao Lu is narrow-minded and treats his wife like a daughter. He can't bear to see her suffer any injustice. I guess Xiao Lu knows about what's going on in the compound and hasn't been kind to her!"
Zhou Da shook his head: "Don't get involved with them. If they have nothing to do, just let them sweep the yard. What are they doing all day long?"
Of course Aunt Dazhu wouldn't get involved with them. She just went there to persuade them. After all, she is the director of the women's department!
The Zhou family was quite lively here, but at the Lu family over there, after seeing Zhou Jie leave, Lu Ran came out and closed the door.
