Chapter 127 Is Comrade Xu interested in you?
When the police asked to question the children in the class, Principal Zhong couldn't stop them and could only cooperate unconditionally.
He took a deep look at Su Yujie and sighed softly: "I'll take you two there."
Teacher Yan stood at the door, blocking the way in and out, but he said loudly, "I can bring two police officers over. Principal, if you have something to say to Teacher Su, please talk to her first."
"You!" Principal Zhong's fat face trembled with anger. "What did Teacher Yan say? I'll criticize Teacher Su at another time. Don't make things worse. It's already past class time, why don't you get to class!"
After being scolded, Teacher Yan didn't seem to care too much. Instead, he made a "please" gesture to Xu Zhe seriously and said, "Come this way!"
What is there to struggle about? The children were brought up in fear by the adults' words, "If you don't behave, we will call the police." When they saw the police really coming, they were so scared that they didn't dare to breathe.
When asked about Daya Zhu Fangling, Lin Dadong was the first to stand up and raise his hand: "Report! It was Teacher Su who scolded Zhu Fangling, saying that she was a vixen like her aunt, or that she was a third party who was ruining other people's lives! She also told us not to play with her. That's why Zhu Fangling doesn't want to come to school."
With this big guy taking the lead, there was no need to ask everyone one by one, and the whole class almost confirmed this matter in unison.
Although the weather had turned cold, Principal Zhong, who was standing at the door, inevitably sweated, and the sweat wet his already sticky hair.
He took out a handkerchief from his trouser pocket to wipe the sweat off his face, but ended up wiping his hair all over the place, making him look extremely disheveled and funny.
Lu Xiaohua couldn't help but burst out laughing. As soon as the laughter came out, everyone around looked over, including Xu Zhe.
When their eyes met, Lu Xiaohua suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
At this moment, she met Xu Zhe's deep black eyes again. There was a firm light in those eyes, as bright and shining as stars.
Faced with such a sharp gaze, Lu Xiaohua couldn't help but avoid it.
With the intervention of the public security, things developed smoothly.
In the end, Su Yujie was exposed for isolating Zhu Fangling.
Both the education department and the military region have sent people to investigate the matter. If Principal Zhong wants to protect Su Yujie, I'm afraid he will no longer be able to keep his position as principal and can only be suspended for the time being.
Su Yujie cried in his office for a full hour. Principal Zhong sighed helplessly, "Why not follow Sister Su's lead and talk to your cousin?"
Su Yujie was awakened at this moment: "Yes, Zhu Fangling and I have no grudges against each other. I caused so much trouble just to vent my anger on Su Hongmei. She must take the blame!"
Not to mention that she went to Su Hongmei crying to complain, Zhu Fangling, who had changed her homeroom teacher, regained her former innocence. The little girl with a sunny face was back, and the chattering sounds were heard again in the Zhu and Lu families' yards.
Looking at Daya and Erya making a fuss in the yard, Zhou Ruoyu finally breathed a sigh of relief and patted Lu Xiaohua on the shoulder: "You have made a contribution to Daya's matter. I will remember it in my heart. To express my gratitude, I-"
Lu Xiaohua widened her eyes and tilted her head to look at her: "What benefit can you give me?"
"I'm going to change your name!"
Zhou Ruoyu looked at her and said calmly, "Since you've chosen to start a new life, say goodbye to your past self, starting with that earthy name."
Lu Xiaohua puffed out her cheeks and said, "My grandfather gave me the name. I changed it for no reason. Be careful not to upset him. He might come crawling out of the underground to find me one day."
"You're stupid, and your grandfather can't read. I guarantee you're still Lu Xiaohua, but it depends on how you pronounce it. A good name can definitely change your fate."
Zhou Ruoyu joked half-heartedly while opening the small notebook at hand and gently wrote a name on it: Lu Xiaohua.
"Look, the pronunciation is the same, but the characters are different. Doesn't it sound much more elegant? Calling her 'Xiaohua Xiaohua', especially when Lai Yunlong calls her that, feels like calling a cat, a kitten that he can manipulate as he pleases."
Lu Xiaohua nodded, agreeing with her opinion, but he retorted, "I finally let it go, and you bring him up again. Are you trying to make me unhappy?"
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it." After saying that, she closed her mouth exaggeratedly and made a cross gesture.
While the two were chatting and laughing, the sound of a bicycle bell was heard at the door. A 28-inch bicycle suddenly stopped in front of their courtyard gate, and a tall and thin figure caught the eyes of their sister-in-law.
Xu Zhe appeared in casual clothes. After changing out of the police uniform, Xu Zhe looked more scholarly and his face was fair and clean.
He said to the two people standing in the yard: "Hello, I, I am here to apologize for what happened the other day."
With a smile still lingering on her face, Zhou Ruoyu nudged Lu Xiaohua's arm and whispered, "Xiaohua, I think this Comrade Xu seems to have some feelings for you. His apology once wasn't enough, so he came to my house to apologize again."
Lu Xiaohua glared at her. "What's wrong with an apology? He wrongly accused me of being a human trafficker, which hurt me so much. I'm lucky I didn't sue him."
"Oh, really?" Zhou Ruoyu smiled mischievously and pinched her waist.
"Hiss, you are sick, Zhou Ruoyu."
Lu Xiaohua's face was filled with grief and anger, but seeing Xu Zhe holding up the bicycle ladder and walking towards the yard, he couldn't get angry.
Xu Zhe was carrying two bottles of malted milk. He smiled as he walked and said, "I don't know what you like, I just bought what others were carrying."
Zhou Ruoyu looked at him and smiled: "Our Xiaohua likes all the beautiful things in the world, including tall and long-legged handsome guys!"
"Zhou..." Just as she was about to curse, she suddenly felt that she should maintain her ladylike image, so she immediately changed her words: "Sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense!"
"Okay, okay, I'll shut up!" After all, he was the master, so Zhou Ruoyu put away his playful thoughts: "Come in and sit down."
Xu Zhe's face was still red because of what Zhou Ruoyu had just said. In order to hide his inner embarrassment, he could only walk quickly into the house.
"Didn't I apologize that day? We in the Lu family are not the kind of people who refuse to forgive others even if they are right."
Lu Xiaohua couldn't help but raise the doubts in her heart. Although she had never thought about the relationship between men and women, she was curious after all.
Xu Zhe held the teacup in his hands, rubbing them back and forth. "I apologized that day purely because the investigation hurt innocent people. Today, I'm here to apologize because the investigation into that human trafficker has been fruitless for many days. I apologize for my incompetence..."
"Then you don't need to apologize to me. If you have to apologize, it should be to the parents of those abducted children."
Lu Xiaohua was not polite either, and every word he said was heart-wrenching.
"But—luckily," he paused, looking up to meet Lu Xiaohua's eyes: "The traffickers were caught early this morning! I'm here to share the good news!"
