Chapter 72: Domestic Flowers Are Not as Fragrant as Wild Flowers
When Fu Zhi was six years old, he read a passage in a book, which roughly meant that family members should be tolerant and understanding of each other.
So even if she felt that Old Lady Lu didn't like her, she would still send medicine to the old lady.
She didn't want to cause any unpleasantness between her father and the old lady because of her relationship.
But Zhou Tingting is different.
She was still an outsider, and Fu Zhi had no reason to tolerate her.
Lu Yumo was walking on the school playground with a hot potato in his hand, absent-minded.
When Zhou Tingting found him, her tears had almost run dry.
She seemed very anxious and aggrieved. "Where did you go just now? I looked for you for a long time and couldn't find you!"
She is pretty and knows how to dress herself up. Now she is crying with tears in her eyes, it is hard not to feel pity for her.
Lu Yumo panicked and tried to comfort her helplessly: "Don't cry! I'm here. Tell me what's bothering you and I'll help you solve it. Crying like this is bad for your eyes!"
When Zhou Tingting heard this, she cried even harder.
There were a few students passing by on the playground, who slowed down their pace unnoticeably and watched.
Zhou Tingting just cried and didn't care about her image as a school beauty.
Lu Yumo made a bold guess, with a hint of uncertainty in his tone, and asked carefully: "Aunt passed away?"
Zhou Tingting comes from a poor family. She has a younger brother who dropped out of school to work, a father who is a compulsive gambler, and a mother who suffers from severe leukemia and can only stay alive with expensive drugs.
Zhou Tingting paused and took a deep breath. After a while, she calmed down and said sobbingly, "No, but it will be soon."
Lu Yumo, "...How do you say that?"
Zhou Tingting said, "Your mother doesn't want to support me anymore, but you know my family's situation. It was your Lu family who was the one who was most willing to support us. It was so hard to give my mother hope of survival, but when she found a bone marrow match and had to undergo surgery, you cruelly deprived her of the right to live."
Zhou Tingting showed the little willfulness that a girlfriend should have and said, "Yumo, your mother really went too far this time! I don't care, even if it's not for me, it's for my mother, you have to talk to her!"
Lu Yumo: “…”
Before Lu Yumo could say anything, Zhou Tingting wanted to pull his hand and shake it to act coquettishly, but the boy was visibly panicked, pulled his hand back forcefully, and took two steps back.
In Lu Yumo's opinion, his mother has a stubborn personality and will not easily change her mind once she has made up her mind.
Besides, the sponsorship of the Zhou family was originally requested by Zhou Tingting and him, so how could the Lu family be asked to take the initiative?
Lu Yumo's look was a little complicated, but Zhou Tingting didn't notice.
She lowered her head and wiped her tears with her hands for Lu Yumo to see.
"My mother likes Fu Zhi very much. Last time I made Fu Zhi unhappy, she chased me for half a mile with a feather duster."
He, Lu Yumo, sighed, his tone was full of inferiority, "Family flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers. My status in the Lu family is really not as good as Fu Zhi's. You made Fu Zhi unhappy this time. No matter what I say, she will never support your Zhou family."
He still blames Xu Wei. How many lives does he have to be stabbed by his father?
Zhou Tingting stood on the playground, looking at Lu Yumo in disbelief.
Lu Yumo really liked her, so he coaxed her, "Don't worry, my mom doesn't want to, but I can ask my dad to raise some money for the surgery for Auntie, so you don't have to worry about that."
Zhou Tingting's heart skipped a beat, "Then I will..."
"No matter what you want, I will try my best to buy it for you." Lu Yumo promised.
Zhou Tingting bit her lower lip, unable to accept this result, but she could see that Lu Yumo really had no ability, and it was not good to force him into anything and cause Lu Yumo to rebel.
She was very upset, but on the surface she remained calm and said, "I am very grateful to you for helping my mother. No matter what grievances I suffer in the future, you will protect me, right?"
Lu Yumo nodded.
Zhou Tingting was delighted. She glanced at the door card in his hand and her heart skipped a beat. She blurted out, "Fu Zhi actually gave you the door card?!"
Her voice was a little loud, and Lu Yumo was startled. Without waiting for Zhou Tingting to make a request, he said, "I will go to the Fz Research Institute tomorrow. I know you want to go, but Teacher Du said that the institute will never welcome you again in this life, so I will remember to record a video for you!"
Zhou Tingting: “…”
