Just when she felt dood, a teacher suddenly jogged up behind Dick and greeted him.
Xiao ng wasn’t stupid; she knew Dick had his eyes on her. If she went up to him, she was dood for a lecture, so Su Xiaong turned her head...
And went straight through the nearby woods.
"Sue! Where are you going!"
Dick called out to her!
Xiao ng was even more frantic and quickened her pace without looking back.
After entering the woods, the branches were quite dense, making it a bit difficult to walk, but she knew this path led to the woods behind the teaching building.
Xiao ng didn’t feel like she was being a coward. On the contrary, she mumbled under her breath:
"This teacher really needs to rethink his own ways; his perverted teaching thod is pushing students to ’seek their own death.’"
"Hiss..."
Her hand got scratched by a branch. Xiao ng pulled her hand back, looked at the slowly appearing red bruise on the back of her hand, and muttered a few more complaints, all related to Dick.
After feeling sorry for herself, Xiao ng continued walking. But as she looked up...
There was a pair of eyes between two trees, staring directly at her... Instantly, Su Xiaong felt a chill down her spine.
This kind of fear ca from deep within.
Those eyes belonged to Han Tan.
He was wearing a black hoodie with baggy jeans; just from his outfit, he looked like an ordinary college student.
But... why was he looking at her with such a guarded expression?
To say guarded might be an understatent; those eyes looked like they were ready to kill.
"Swoosh..."
As the two stared at each other, the forest fell silent, suddenly there was a rustling sound of leaves.
Soone was there!
Xiao ng instinctively looked in the direction of the sound!
"Don’t move your eyes!"
Han Tan shouted, scaring Xiao ng into not daring to move at all.
Just as I said...
If you’re really unlucky, you can’t escape. You think you’ve dodged Dick, only to bump into sothing even scarier!
If asked what was so scary about Han Tan, Su Xiaong couldn’t say for sure.
But looking at their current situation, it inexplicably felt eerily terrifying.
"I-I won’t move..."
Xiao ng’s eyes were already big, and now, frightened, they looked even bigger!
The two of them stared at each other like that, one full of confusion but not daring to move, the other filled with a guarded nace!
After a few more rustling sounds, followed by the sound of wind shaking the leaves.
The "soone" Han Tan didn’t let her investigate seed to have already left.
So Han Tan didn’t say anything else, just turned, put his hands in his pockets, and walked ahead.
Xiao ng stood there, dumbfounded, not knowing whether to follow or not. After thinking for a while, she decided to follow, but kept a safe distance.
Out of the small forest, Han Tan still didn’t say a word.
Su Xiaong was full of questions, but at this mont didn’t dare to ask even one!
Dazed, she returned to the classroom. As the class bell rang, Xiao ng was still in shock, and on the other side, Dick walked in...
Class reschedule!
Su Xiaong’s eyes widened; today was totally cursed!
"Su Xiaong, you, get out!"
"..."
————
Soone who returned ho had already been upset the entire way because they had to stand outside the classroom for a whole period.
"Hubby..."
She opened the door and didn’t bother with Shuangshuang and Huang Huang eagerly approaching, just wanted to find her husband!
Who knew there was an extra person in the living room...
"E, Eric?"
"Yeah, I ca to ask Arthur for a favor."
"What favor?"
Su Xiaong blinked and asked, but before Eric could answer, she continued,
"Hubby, don’t help if it’s too much trouble."
"..."
Eric almost coughed up old blood!
Yin Shixiu chuckled silently.
Eric had nothing more to say to Su Xiaong.
Shuangshuang and Huang Huang just stood by Su Xiaong’s feet, all looking up at her...
Since there was a guest, Xiao ng couldn’t seek comfort from her husband, so she hugged Shuangshuang and Huang Huang instead.
Returning to her room to change clothes, the siblings followed her like shadows.
In the living room outside, Eric said solemnly,
"Rember that my ring was lost by your kid, Shuangshuang?"
"Shuangshuang lost it? Wasn’t it you?"
"Don’t be so thick-skinned. It’s not like you don’t know the origin of that ring. I lost it at your place, and I haven’t said anything. Up till now, I haven’t dared to see my grandmother, and you..."
"It’s such a small thing, and you won’t even help. Are you still a friend?"
"I told you I’m busy... Next week going back to Beijing, and then Christmas the week after..."
"Then do it after the Christmas holidays!"
"..."
"Co on, Xiao ng is studying in Bath too, right?"
"Alright, alright, I got it, just this once."
"Okay, okay, good!"
Eric bead with joy, stood up, and patted his stomach,
"When’s dinner?"
"..."
Eric had essentially treated Yin Shixiu’s house as his own, not the slightest bit polite.
Su Xiaong ca out after changing clothes and heard Eric asking about dinner... Couldn’t help but frown,
"You... want to stay for dinner?"
Eric raised an eyebrow,
"Mrs. Yin, can I ask what’s with that face of disdain and reluctance?"
"Am I showing it that obviously?"
"...Very obvious!"
"Haha!" Su Xiaong burst into laughter, went up on tiptoe, and patted Eric on the shoulder,
"How could I despise you! Absolutely not!"
"..."
Eric felt Su Xiaong’s change of attitude was really strange, glanced at Yin Shixiu, and said,
"Arthur, do you feel like your wife is becoming more like you, kind of sneaky?"
"What nonsense! Co, let take you to the kitchen and see what you want, and let Claire and Lily make it for you."
With that said, Su Xiaong pulled Eric into the kitchen...
"Eric!!"
"What?"
"Don’t tell Shixiu I was punished to stand outside the classroom by Dick!"
"You got punished to stand outside the classroom by Dick?"
Seeing Eric’s shocked face, Su Xiaong instantly regretted it.
Turns out... Eric didn’t know...
So wasn’t she just confessing her own misdeeds?
"Uh... don’t tell Shixiu, it’s so embarrassing."
"Hahaha!"
"..."
"Mrs. Yin, I rarely visit your ho. How about you personally cook a couple of Chinese dishes for ?"
"Claire and Lily... Alright, I’ll do it."
Su Xiaong quietly tied on an apron, walked to Claire and Lily...
"Add a couple of dishes; I’ll handle it myself."
Eric swaggered out and humd,
"I’m really flattered! Mrs. Yin actually offered to cook for herself!"
Yin Shixiu raised an eyebrow, seeing Eric in a suddenly proud mood, unable to understand.
"Arthur... Let tell you secretly..."
"..."
"You need to keep an eye on your wife. Several wolves’ eyes are watching her!"
Arthur blinked, then his eyes, sharp like an eagle’s, bore straight into Eric’s...
"Don’t believe ?"
Eric said this, but Arthur still stared at him, eyes deep and penetrating, making Eric very uncomfortable.
Knowing each other for many years, and being well-acquainted, dealing with each other often, what goes on in a man’s mind isn’t that hard to guess...
But often guessing Yin Shixiu’s thoughts, the person involved would indeed be angry for a while!
"What’s with that look! Do my eyes look like wolf eyes! It’s not after your wife!!"
"...I didn’t say it was you, why are you so excited?"
"..."
"Guilty conscience?"
Yin Shixiu’s tone was light, asking nonchalantly, yet it really set Eric off!
"You have a guilty conscience! Would I do sothing like steal a friend’s wife?"
"I don’t know if you would, but it’s certain you can’t, that much is sure."
"You..."
Eric got so angry his pale skin turned red, then slumped as if deflated, giving Yin Shixiu a sidelong glance,
"That guy’s na is Han Tan, his background is not very clear, seems a bit dangerous."
