Chapter 868 Zhouzhou is Confessed To
Qin Lie had just finished handling a project after overtime when his phone buzzed. He opened it and saw a message from Ye Lingfeng, which made him expressionless as he tapped on his phone a few times. Ye Lingfeng was waiting for his response and, seeing that he had sent a recording, felt a bit curious.
Upon opening it, his face immediately darkened. This little flirt is claiming to love everyone! He sulked and put his phone away, choosing not to reply. Qin Lie calmly packed up his computer, having already been prepared for this kind of tactic. Ha, as if he doesn't know his own faults?
The two of them spent the night fuming at each other, neither sleeping well. In contrast, Zhouzhou was snugly curled up, sleeping soundly. Her appetite was unaffected; after devouring nine steamed buns, she stuffed two more into her backpack and bounced her way to school.
As soon as she arrived at the school entrance, she bumped into Chang Beibei, who was followed closely by Zhou Fei. Spotting them, Zhouzhou's eyes brightened, and she quickly approached.
"Zhou Fei, how's staying at Beibei's house?" she asked eagerly.@@@@
Zhou Fei glanced at Chang Beibei and nodded, "It's good; the principal and Chang Beibei are both very nice to me."
This was the truth. After arriving at the principal's home yesterday, he hadn't said much; the principal just told him to treat it like his own home, and he naturally settled in to do his work. Chang Beibei kept him entertained, her lively personality shining through, although she tended to talk a lot.
"Who would've thought my storytelling was so good that it put you to sleep?" Chang Beibei boasted, a glimmer of pride in her voice.
Qin Bei, unable to hold back, muttered, "Maybe it's because your stories were too boring that he fell asleep."
"What do you know?" Chang Beibei retorted, visibly upset. "Clearly, he fell asleep because my stories were so captivating, and he was completely relaxed. Right, Zhou Fei?"
Zhou Fei pondered for a moment before affirmatively nodding, "Yes."
Chang Beibei's stories were quite surprising; he was curious where she had learned so many. That was her hidden talent, after all.
As they confirmed Zhou Fei was alright, Zhouzhou nodded with satisfaction. Their teacher called them to come inside, and they waved goodbye to their parents before dashing into the school.
When they reached the entrance, Zhou Fei suddenly stopped.
Chang Beibei turned around, puzzled, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Fei glanced inside and then lowered his head, tightly clenching his hands. After a long pause, he quietly said, "I'm afraid they won't like me."
If he hadn't come, he wouldn't have known how wonderful they were or how much they cared about him.
If he hadn't come, he wouldn't have so many friends.
It turned out not everyone would dislike him because of his mother. In fact, they didn't.
Initially, parents had warned their children to stay away from him. Yesterday, when they heard about his attempt, they instructed their kids once again. When they later learned he was safe, their feelings were mixed; they didn't want their kids to be too close to him.
After all, he had taken such an extreme approach at such a young age, and they feared their children might follow suit.
It was only after the principal held an emergency parent meeting that things changed. He explained Mrs. Zhou's condition and invited a psychologist to discuss Zhou Fei's situation, reassuring them of his good nature. This incident stemmed from being overly suppressed.
The principal passionately described why they should accept Zhou Fei, leaving many parents in tears. Eventually, they were convinced and decided to stop keeping their children away from him.
Zhouzhou smiled brightly and said, "I told you, everything is fine! We're all good kids and won't randomly hurt people!"
Seeing Li Yu'an about to speak, Zhouzhou bared her little teeth and waved her chubby hand, "Unless they deserve it!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yu'an wilted. Fine, I was indeed not a good person back then.
Realizing he was behaving himself, Zhouzhou smirked, and Zhou Fei felt relieved as he obediently entered the classroom.
By the end of the day, he felt an unprecedented sense of peace in his heart. Zhouzhou, too, quickly put this matter behind her; she enjoyed her meals and continued to be the lively and happy little chubby girl.
When the last class bell rang, she quickly packed her bag and hopped out of the classroom.
However, just as she reached the door, a little boy blocked her path.
The boy, dressed in suspenders and trying to look cool by running his hand through his hair, leaned against the wall and obstructed Zhouzhou's way.
He pulled out a red piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Zhouzhou, saying arrogantly, "Hey, Qin Caicai, I like you. Will you be my girlfriend?"
