Wu Minxia walked into the classroom from outside, "Did you know? Zhao Xuan didn’t co for the midterm exam."
What? Zhao Xuan didn’t co for the midterm exam? Zhang Yu looked incredulous, "Wasn’t she aiming to get into the rocket class? She would never miss it."
"Not just her, even Zhou Kai didn’t co for the midterm exam." Wu Minxia added another piece of news.
Really? Zhou Kai didn’t co for the midterm exam either? Zhang Yu found it increasingly unlikely.
"I saw him this morning when I was in the garage getting my bike. It’s impossible that he’d skip the midterm exam." Zhang Yu couldn’t help but feel pressured, wondering if Zhou Kai got upset because of sothing she said, and that’s why he didn’t co for the exam.
If that’s really the case, Zhou Jian, that mad dog, who knows how he’ll make a scene.
Ugh, just the thought of it gives a headache. Ever since Zhou Kai didn’t do well in the class division exam, Zhou Jian hasn’t been acting right, or else why would he force Qiao Lili to pay back money?
Knowing Zhou Kai didn’t take the exam because of her, she really couldn’t imagine what would happen if those people ca knocking at her door, such a headache.
"I heard soone say Zhou Kai’s mother slapped Zhao Xuan several tis."
What? Zhang Yu’s mouth dropped open in disbelief. Ever since she stopped being the scapegoat, the relationship between the Zhou Family and Zhao Family wasn’t as good as before.
Even though the relationship wasn’t like it used to be, at most, they’d just exchange a few cold snorts or ignore each other when they t on the street.
At least Huang Lin hadn’t been seen laying hands on Zhao Xuan; she was always very satisfied with Zhao Xuan, often saying outside that Zhao Xuan was her ideal daughter-in-law.
With so much happening before, Huang Lin probably wouldn’t consider her the ideal daughter-in-law now.
Zhang Yu never imagined Huang Lin would actually lay hands on Zhao Xuan. Such a slap, tsk tsk.
Wu Minxia noticed her deep in thought, "What are you thinking about?"
"I’m thinking, now that you say it, if Huang Lin hit Zhao Xuan, how would Zhou Kai choose between his mom and Zhao Xuan?"
With a light sigh, "I really didn’t expect so much drama. If I had known, I really should’ve stayed a little longer so I could watch the spectacle."
Wu Minxia thought Zhang Yu was pondering sothing serious, but who would’ve thought he was thinking about that, truly dumbfounded.
"You, you actually wanted to stay and watch the scene?" Wu Minxia looked shocked, "Aren’t you worried about missing the exam?"
"True, those three arguing, it should beco a common sight, but you can’t miss the midterm exam."
Now that Huang Lin has stepped in and started taking action, regardless of whether Qiao Lili can bother with Zhao Xuan now, she definitely has to stand up for Zhao Xuan; otherwise, people around will think poorly of her.
"By the way, why do they keep arguing in the garage?" Wu Minxia was truly confused, "I rember last ti they argued there too."
Really? Zhang Yu closed his eyes and thought, it seed to be the case, "I guess most people still choose bicycles for commuting."
Even with motorcycles and the earliest versions of electric bikes available, their prices aren’t cheap, bicycles are still the choice for most people.
"In the early morning, people are still groggy; just a little careless, and you could really end up damaging soone’s bike."
"If both parties are reasonable, the issue can be quickly resolved, but if they encounter soone stubborn, it can beco a big problem."
"Is your neighborhood usually lively with dramas to watch?" Wu Minxia was really curious about Zhang Yu, who had entertainnt right at ho every day.
Well, looking at Wu Minxia’s expectant eyes, Zhang Yu didn’t quite understand, "In any neighborhood, as long as there are enough people living there, there will always be friction."
"What, doesn’t this happen in your neighborhood?" Zhang Yu couldn’t believe there was such a well-behaved neighborhood.
Wu Minxia’s eyes darted around, "Maybe it’s because I don’t go out much after getting ho, so I haven’t noticed."
"There probably are dramas to watch, I just don’t know about them." Wu Minxia made various diversions, hoping to shift Zhang Yu’s attention.
Zhang Yu already had so understanding of Wu Minxia’s situation before; like how her family seed to be a family of civil servants, with parents in not-so-low positions, now it was just confird.
The neighborhoods where leaders live surely wouldn’t have noisy matters happening. After all, the presence of aunts and uncles can bring trouble to the neighborhood managent.
And an unintentional word could reveal so family matters. For families like theirs, being cautious with their words is a must; you can’t casually let slip any details about their family affairs.
"My neighborhood is quite lively now, but sotis, how should I put it, if you’re one of the involved parties, whenever sothing happens, you’ll sohow get dragged into it, which gets annoying." Zhang Yu sighed helplessly.
She could already imagine when the Zhou Family and Zhao Family clash again, soone would inevitably bring her up, which was a botherso thought.
"True." Wu Minxia thought of Zhou Kai and Zhao Xuan, often baffled by their thoughts and actions.
"Thankfully, once my parents co back, the family farmhouse will open, and I’ll move to the countryside." Although the gossip would travel slower this way, at least she’d be far from the storm’s eye.
Especially since she always felt that Zhou Kai’s emotions were a bit off, she was truly worried. If this guy got too stressed and exploded, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Zhang Yu knew Zhou Kai was very angry with her, perhaps thinking if she hadn’t suddenly insisted on taking arts, they could still be as they were before, with a high chance for him to get into the science rocket class.
Now that he didn’t get into the rocket class, he wouldn’t think it’s because he wasn’t trying hard enough, or because his mood swung due to Zhao Xuan, resulting in a poor performance; overall, it was all her fault.
Once his emotions reached the peak, when he finally broke down and lashed out at her, the scene would...
"If you’re living in the countryside, how will you go to school?" Wu Minxia had heard her ntion it before but thought it was just for weekends, and didn’t expect she planned to actually live in the countryside.
"My dad goes to the city every day to get supplies, so he can drop off at school, and in the evening, he’ll pick up after school."
"This way, he and my mom can focus on their business and not worry about having to rush back."
"Plus, Zhao Xuan keeps engineering ways to ’accidentally’ run into , and I’m honestly getting a bit tired of it."
Even if Zhao Xuan’s words were rely a simple greeting, Zhang Yu couldn’t help but ponder what her real intentions were.
Wu Minxia knew how Zhao Xuan used to behave towards Zhang Yu, and hearing about such a change made her suspect, "I think there’s sothing off too."
"Little Yu, you should be cautious."
