Chuxia took the bus to school. There were still 20 minutes before the exam. She came early on purpose for fear of being late.

As soon as she sat down, Luo Xiaomei rushed to her: "Second sister! How could you come to the exam when you didn't tell me?"

Chuxia looked at her strangely: "Why should I tell you?"

Luo Xiaomei said righteously: "I am your sister!"

Chuxia sneered: "Now you say you are my sister, but when I asked you to pay me back, didn't you say you would cut off ties with me? I don't have a sister as selfish as you." When

Luo Xiaomei heard this, she exploded instantly. How could she go to school if her second sister said this?

"Second sister, I care about you, why do you say that to me! I said I never asked for your money! And it was Dad who wanted to break up with you, not me! If you hadn't been so excessive at home and not a bit unfilial, Dad wouldn't have said those angry words!"

"You didn't ask for my money?" Chu Xia seemed to be listening to a particularly funny joke: "The watch on your hand, the leather shoes on your feet, the hairpin on your head, the clothes on your body, which one was not bought for you by Mom after taking money from me? And the bicycle you ride was also bought for me by Zhengnian. By the way, I forgot about this when I didn't see you. I won't give you the bicycle. Give me the key to the bicycle."

Chu Xia's voice was neither loud nor soft, but in the quiet of the examination room, many people looked over when the two of them just talked. As soon as she finished speaking, In the examination room, all kinds of eyes fell on Luo Xiaomei, looking at her shoes, her watch, and her clothes.

Then they all nodded in agreement: indeed, none of them were cheap, and ordinary families could not afford them.

"You are talking nonsense, you are talking nonsense! These are all given to me by my mother!"

"My mother took them from me! My mother has admitted it and given me money, why don't you admit it? I know, you are greedy for these things, right? Yes, you are a high school student now, you can't make money, but you wear a Plum watch, ride a Phoenix brand bicycle, and wear new clothes every day. How impressive, aren't all your classmates jealous of you?"

Luo Xiaomei's skills are far inferior to Wang Yulan's.

She didn't take the initiative to find her, she came to her door by herself, isn't that asking for trouble?

If she didn't say a few words to her, she would feel guilty for coming here specially.

She sucked her own sister's blood and looked down on her own sister. Her thoughts were all on her face and she still thought she was very smart. She was really stupid and didn't know it.

Luo Xiaomei was so angry that she cried. She turned around and was about to run: "Second sister, you are too much!"

Chuxia grabbed her arm: "Wait, leave the bicycle keys and the watch. Otherwise..."

Chuxia leaned close to her ear and whispered: "I don't mind letting the whole school know that I have a 'good sister' who likes to suck sisters' blood. I forgot to tell you that I am also a student of No. 9 Middle School now."

Luo Xiaomei's body trembled involuntarily. The voice in her ear was like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, which made her feel cold from the bottom of her heart. She dared not resist.

She turned her head to meet Chuxia's eyes. There was no love as before, only coldness and disgust.

The second sister has really changed. She is not the second sister of the past.

The total number of people in the last exam room was 17, and it hadn't finished yet. The quarrel between her and her second sister wouldn't have spread to the whole school.

But if her second sister took the initiative to spread the news, it would definitely not be like this. She knew that her second sister would do what she said.

Luo Xiaomei was not stupid. She was as sweet-talking as Luo Xiaodi, and she was the youngest. Wang Yulan loved her the most besides Luo Chuming. Otherwise, she wouldn't have received so many good things from Wang Yulan, and she wouldn't have been raised so arrogant and selfish.

She took off her watch distressedly, took the car key from her neck, put it in front of Chu Xia, and glared at her angrily: "Is it okay now?"

Chu Xia threw the things into her schoolbag, looked at Luo Xiaomei and said with a gentle smile: "Speak to me with respect, after all, I am your 'second sister', right?"

Threat, naked threat! Luo Xiaomei was so angry that her face turned red, her eyes were full of anger, but she had to endure it, gritted her teeth and lowered her head: "Yes, second sister."

Just at this time, the invigilator came in, saw the chaos in the room, frowned, patted the table: "Quiet, the exam is about to start, go back to your seats!"

She looked at Luo Xiaomei, Luo Xiaomei was not afraid at all, and even felt that she had met a savior, and ran back to her seat in a flash.

Chuxia was not affected at all, but it also let everyone else in the examination room know that this transfer student was not to be trifled with.

Why did they know that she was a transfer student? Because all the students of No. 9 Middle School knew that there were only three people taking the transfer exam this time, and all three were assigned to the last three seats in the last examination room.

The two people sitting behind Chuxia were the ones who transferred in with her.

The teacher supervising the exam this time was Chuxia's homeroom teacher, and the subject was physics.

It was a subject that Chuxia was not very good at. She flipped through the paper to make sure that there were no questions that were missed, and then she lowered her head to concentrate on answering the questions.

She first did the questions that she knew and was confident about, and skipped the questions that she didn't know, waiting to think about them later. Otherwise, she would not be able to figure it out, and she would not be able to answer the difficult questions when the time was up, and she would not be able to answer the simple questions later, so she would lose a lot of points.

The head teacher stood behind Chu Xia and watched her answer the questions, frowning and nodding. It didn't affect Chu Xia, but it scared the students around her so much that they didn't even dare to take out the prepared cheat sheets.

They wanted to cry but couldn't. Why did the invigilator always stand behind this new transfer student? They were assigned to sit with her, which was really unlucky.

"An An, An An, who brought you to school today?"

Many people in the preschool class saw that the person who brought An An here was very handsome, looked very tall, spoke very nicely, and bought An An a lot of delicious and fun things.

They were jealous.

"An An, is that your dad?"

"Your dad is so handsome!"

The children chattered, Chen Chen tried to push away the people who surrounded him, stood on the bench, put his hands on his waist and said loudly: "An An doesn't like being surrounded by people, you guys quickly disperse! You all ask, what's wrong with An An!"

Cen Huaian actually enjoyed the envious eyes of these people, just like he used to envy other children's fathers who could take them out to play and let them ride horses.

Today he can finally say to these curious children: "Yes, that's my dad." He

is justified and even has a hidden little show-off.

It's just that there is no expression on his face, and others can't hear his show-off. But even so, many people can envy him.

Because they don't have such a good-looking and gentle father, and their fathers won't buy them so many delicious and fun things.

Chenchen was also envious: "An'an, your dad is so thin, no wonder you are thin too. My dad is very fat, and my mom said I am fat because of him."

Now everyone is looking forward to gaining weight, only the fat boy Chenchen has a different idea from everyone else, because his fatness makes him unable to run fast and makes him particularly easy to get hot, so his mom doesn't let him eat a lot of delicious food, such as braised pork.

If he is as thin as An'an, his mom will definitely let him eat braised pork!

"An'an, let's exchange dads! I also want a thin dad."

"No!" An'an frowned and said, the smile on the corner of his mouth disappeared, his face became ugly again, and he even ignored Chenchen.

No matter how he talked to him, he ignored him this afternoon.

Chenchen didn't know that he said something wrong, and he was still very sad. Why did An'an ignore him? He was willing to give his dad to him.

Cen Zhengnian was not idle at this time. He first called his parents to let them know that he was safe and then told them that he had come to Liangzhou.

Cen's father had no objection to Cen Zhengnian's return. Jiang Shengnan was even more supportive and asked him if he was going back empty-handed.

"No, Chuxia and An'an like the things I brought."

Jiang Shengnan was relieved. "During the days you are home, you should coax Chuxia and An'an well, cook and do everything you can. Don't be like your father, who is like a grandfather and does nothing when he goes home."

"Don't discredit me in front of my son." The stern voice of Cen's father came from the phone.

"Give me the phone, I want to talk to Zhengnian."

Cen's father took the phone and asked about the situation of Chuxia and An'an first.

After listening to his son, he said, "You are a man, you have to take responsibility for the family. It is not easy for Chuxia to raise An'an, you have to be good to them!"

The tone was like an order, but Cen Zhengnian had long been accustomed to his father's behavior. He was used to giving orders, and he couldn't change his words at home.

"I know, Dad."

"Also, find some time to visit Director Zhang of the Third Textile Factory. He used to be my old subordinate, and he has been helping to take care of Chuxia and An'an in the past few years."

"Okay." Cen Zhengnian had no objection. He would definitely thank the people who helped his wife and children.

In addition to Director Zhang, Cen Zhengnian also planned to visit his old classmates at Liangzhou University, whom he hadn't seen for many years.

Cen Zhengnian did not go to visit Director Zhang directly. He started from the family compound and asked about how Chuxia and Anan were living in the past few years.

He always wanted to know whether they had lived well in the past, even if their father had asked someone to take care of them.

But that was the director, and he was busy with all kinds of things. It was impossible for him to pay attention to the affairs of Chuxia and Anan's small family all the time.

At most, when Chuxia was in trouble, he would remember her and help her.

The fact was just as Cen Zhengnian thought, and the director did so. He assigned this task to the union and asked the union to pay more attention to it.

The rest of the time, he couldn't finish dealing with various things in the factory, and he didn't live in a family compound, so he didn't see Chuxia and Anan many times.

The union was also busy, and all the employees' problems had to be solved. Every day, many employees went to the union to cry about their difficulties. The original owner did not go directly to beg for help. It was thoughtful of them to remember to care about them from time to time.

The original owner did not blatantly abuse An An. Both of them were hungry. The one who was scolded the most in the family compound was Wang Yulan, but Textile Factory 1 and Textile Factory 3 were not in the same factory. They were mother and daughter, so how could they care about them? They thought the original owner was too stupid and cowardly.

In fact, Wang Yulan was not so excessive at the beginning. The money she asked for increased little by little. The original owner kept her appetite bigger and bigger.

The most excessive thing was in the past two years, when she asked for more and more money. Of course, it was also because Cen Zhengnian's allowance was not that much before, and the original owner himself did not have that much salary.

Later, when Cen Zhengnian's salary became higher and higher, Wang Yulan always felt that her daughter did not give enough. She wondered if her son-in -law's salary was higher or if the original owner had hidden some of it.

So, "a little kindness brings worries" and "a greedy heart will never be satisfied"! If

Cen Zhengnian wanted to get close to people, he could get in quickly. The aunties in the family compound liked young people who looked like him the most.

He just guided the topic a little and got all the news he wanted.

The more he listened, the gloomier Cen Zhengnian's face became. Later, there was no smile on his face, and the aunties in the family compound dared not say anything.

These people usually don't go to work, but take odd jobs at home. What they like most is gossip. Although they are talkative, they are not very timid, just ordinary housewives.

"Well, Xiao Cen, don't blame Chu Xia. She has changed now and doesn't listen to her mother anymore. Your mother-in-law is the real troublemaker!"

"I know." Cen Zhengnian restrained his momentum, frowned, and said distressedly: "Thank you for telling me this. Chu Xia is too strong-willed and doesn't like to complain to me."

Hearing this, the group of women returned to their normal state and said enthusiastically one by one: "It's okay, it's okay. Just ask us if you want to know. There is nothing in the family compound that we don't know."

After Cen Zhengnian left, the group of women were still discussing Cen Zhengnian and Chu Xia, saying that Chu Xia was lucky.

"You're lucky? Your husband hasn't come back for four years. Do you want it?"

A woman suddenly spoke up, and the crowd fell silent for a moment. They only saw how good Cen Zhengnian was just now, and they forgot that he had been away for several years. Isn't this living a life of widowhood?

"Forget it, although my husband is not that good, he can go home every day, and I still like it this way."

"Yes, yes, me too."

The woman who just spoke sat aside, pulled the corners of her mouth, lowered her head and continued to paste paper boxes: Yes, he hasn't come back for four years, so they don't want it no matter how good it is.

After Cen Zhengnian learned that information, his heart was filled with pain, and a strong sense of self-blame and guilt was about to drown him.

He blamed himself for not fulfilling his responsibilities as a husband, and regretted that he didn't care enough about Chu Xia and An An before.

No wonder she and An An were so thin in the photos his wife sent him, no wonder she and An An still had to take medicine to keep healthy, everything made sense now.

Whenever he thought of what the neighbors said about Chu Xia and An An's past life, Cen Zhengnian's chest felt stuffy and he couldn't breathe, as if a large piece of cotton wool was stuck inside.

Cen Zhengnian had seen the evil of human nature, and the research institute was not always peaceful. Not everyone was devoted to research, and talented people might want money more.

The Luo family's greed is exactly the same as theirs. So he was not surprised by their behavior, but he was angry that their behavior was towards his wife and son.

A haze flashed across Cen Zhengnian

's eyes. If you think Cen Zhengnian is a gentle and easy-going person because of his appearance, then you are very wrong.

If his methods were gentle, he would not be able to control the scientific researchers under him.

When Chuxia walked out of the school gate with her bag on her back, she looked up and saw Cen Zhengnian waiting at the gate of No. 9 Middle School.

His image was really outstanding. He was just standing casually, and he was the most conspicuous one in the crowd. Chuxia saw that no matter boys or girls, they would glance at him a few more times when they passed by.

Cen Zhengnian himself didn't seem to notice anything. His eyes were always on the school gate. When he saw Chuxia, the corners of his lips slightly raised, revealing a beautiful arc, and he took a step with his long legs and walked directly towards Chuxia.

"Why are you here..."

Before Chu Xia finished her words, she fell into a warm embrace.

Seeing that the guy was taken, some of the girls who were originally excited suddenly showed disappointment on their faces.

At this time, girls were very timid and shy. Very few of them would take the initiative to approach boys and say "let's be friends". Even if a boy and a girl were in love, they would blush if they held hands. They were very innocent.

Therefore, everyone just looked at Cen Zhengnian quietly and no one came to disturb him. Especially when they saw that he had a partner, they would not come up to him.

Chu Xia was stunned where she was, blinking her eyes, not understanding what happened. Why did Cen Zhengnian suddenly hug her? This was not in line with his personality!

"You..."

"I'm sorry." Cen Zhengnian and Chu Xia spoke at the same time, with a strong tone of heartache and guilt. Chu Xia understood it all at once.

He should know what happened between the original owner and An An.

Chu Xia has never concealed what happened before, and there is no way to hide it. Most people in the family compound knew about the original owner's affairs with her natal family.

She also knew about the quarrel between her and her natal family. Cen Zhengnian didn't need to ask, he could quickly hear it from the mouths of gossipers.

Chu Xia actually didn't know how Cen Zhengnian would react after knowing this. Whether he blamed her or not, she could accept it.

But she didn't expect that Cen Zhengnian, who didn't seem to care about gossip at all, would know about this so soon.

"It's all over." Chu Xia hesitated, but still raised her hand and patted him on the back.

It felt like if she didn't say something, Cen Zhengnian would be killed by his own guilt.

The guilt in Cen Zhengnian's heart seemed to be torn open suddenly, and the tightness in his chest was lessened.

He hummed softly and slowly let go of Chuxia.

"I came here to do something. I thought you should finish your exams, so I came over." Cen Zhengnian reached out and took Chuxia's bag.

The two walked towards the bus stop. Cen Zhengnian asked Chuxia, "What did you take this afternoon?"

"Physics and mathematics."

As soon as she finished speaking, Chuxia remembered that she had to take the bicycle back before the exam. She immediately stopped and said, "I forgot to take something."

Back at school, Cen Zhengnian looked at the bicycle that Chuxia unlocked. It was very familiar, so he asked her, "Is this the one we bought when we got married?"

He picked the bicycle himself that year, so of course he still remembered it.

Nowadays, everyone who has a bicycle treasures it very much. If it falls, they will feel very sad, so most people's bicycles are still new after riding for many years.

This bicycle is no exception. Although the Luo family members have their own problems, they also cherish things. The bicycle is still mostly new.

"Yes. It's the one you gave me when we got married. I was not in a good mind before, so my mother pushed it away to my sister. Now I don't want to give it to my sister anymore, so I asked for it back."

Cen Zhengnian felt like something was pulling his heart when he heard Chu Xia's words. It didn't hurt, but it was very uncomfortable.

"This is yours. If you want to give it to me, give it to me. If you don't want to give it to me, you have to take it back." This site has
