When Auntie Lin saw Tong Qiao's reaction, a trace of relief flashed across her eyes. In fact, she always knew that even though Tong Qiao was' at war 'with Lu Ziqian every day, she still cared a lot about Lu Ziqian.
It was just that she was a careless girl and didn't do some trivial things well. She also didn't know how to coax children. Unlike other women, she didn't know how to say nice things or buy toys to coax children.
However, when Lu Ziqian had a fever last time, Tong Qiao was more anxious than anyone else. With her big belly, she stayed by Lu Ziqian's side all night.
Lu Ziqian's attitude towards Tong Qiao also slowly changed. Although he still acted like he despised Tong Qiao every day, Auntie Lin, who had watched Lu Ziqian grow up, knew that Lu Ziqian was slowly starting to like Tong Qiao.
Perhaps this was the so-called 'time reveals a person's heart'.
"Auntie Lin?" Tong Qiao saw that Auntie Lin had stopped talking and was anxious, so she called out to her.
Auntie Lin came back to her senses and continued, "When I went to the school to pick Ziqian up, the parent-child activity hadn't ended yet. The atmosphere in the field was lively, and there was laughter everywhere. The children were also accompanied by their parents. Some were doing activities, and some were cuddling in their parents' arms. Only Ziqian was sitting alone in the corner of the auditorium, watching everyone talk and laugh with reddened eyes."
What did the little devil, who had always been mischievous and never cried, look like when he was alone and secretly crying?
Just thinking about that scene made Tong Qiao's heart clench in pain. "And then? Who bullied him? "
When Tong Qiao said this, she didn't know how much love there was in her eyes. It was as if if Auntie Lin told her who bullied Lu Ziqian, she would immediately rush to the school to find that person to settle the score.
Auntie Lin smiled faintly. "It's not considered bullying. It's just that some children teased Ziqian that no one cared about him and no one accompanied him. They said that his parents didn't love him. Then I saw Ziqian secretly running to the bathroom to cry … Hey, Qiao 'er, where are you going?"
Tong Qiao rushed to the door and said without looking back, "School."
Aunt Lin hurriedly caught up with them and pulled Tong Qiao back. "You can't do that. There are too many people at the parent-child event. It's not safe for you to go. What if you bump into something?"
Tong Qiao frowned. "Auntie Lin, why are you treating me like a piece of paper like Lu Jinshen? I'm not that weak. If you don't believe me, I can show you a set of fist techniques. "
"Don't, don't, don't," Aunt Lin hurriedly stopped Tong Qiao, who was about to make a move, "You're strong, strong, okay?"
Tong Qiao pursed her lips. "I've always been strong. Why do you sound so reluctant?"
Aunt Lin was speechless.
"Okay, don't worry. I'm going to school."
Aunt Lin grabbed Tong Qiao's arm and refused to let go. "It's useless for you to go to school. You can't participate in the parent-child event with such a big belly."
"… It's better for me to sit there than to leave the little devil alone there."
In the end, Aunt Lin couldn't persuade Tong Qiao and let her go. However, before she left, Tong Qiao promised Aunt Lin that she wouldn't participate in the parent-child event and would only accompany her.
Aunt Lin arranged for the chauffeur to send Tong Qiao to school. She originally wanted to go with her, but lunch wasn't ready yet. Things were different now. Tong Qiao was pregnant and couldn't starve.
When Tong Qiao arrived at school, she told the chauffeur to wait for her at the entrance. She explained her purpose of visit to the security guard and asked for the address of the parent-child event. Then, she entered the school and walked directly to the field in front of the teaching building.
When Tong Qiao arrived at the field, the event seemed to have just begun. The teacher was talking in front of her with an earpiece. He was emphasizing discipline, telling the children to stay with their parents and grandparents, and to keep their mouths shut. Then, he was telling them to participate in the event enthusiastically.
Tong Qiao searched the area for parents and children but didn't see Lu Ziqian. She suddenly remembered that Aunt Lin said that Lu Ziqian was hiding in the bathroom and crying. She asked a parent for the location of the bathroom and quickly walked there with her hands on her waist.
Tong Qiao heard Lu Ziqian's angry cry from the men's bathroom.
"My dad will come. He just went to catch the bad guys."
Then, she heard an unfamiliar boy's voice. "Liar, the event has already started. Your dad won't come."
"I'm not a liar."
"You're a liar. You always lie and say that your parents love you very much. But every time there's an event, your parents don't come. Also, your nanny attends the parent meetings. You're just a child who has no one to love you."
"You're lying. You're lying …"
"What are you doing? If you dare to hit me, I'll tell my mom … "
Tong Qiao rushed into the men's bathroom without thinking. She saw Lu Ziqian grabbing a chubby boy's jacket and looking like he was going to hit him. "Ziqian, let go."
"Tong Qiao?" Lu Ziqian's red and teary eyes were full of surprise.
Tong Qiao walked to Lu Ziqian's side, pulled his little hand away, and patted his fluffy little head. "No matter what, you can't hit him, okay? It's wrong to fight. "
Lu Ziqian felt embarrassed that Tong Qiao saw him crying. He raised his little hand to wipe away his tears and turned his head away awkwardly.
Tong Qiao smiled and rubbed Lu Ziqian's soft hair. Then, she looked at the chubby boy in front of her. "Little boy, classmates should love and care for each other. You can't make fun of and ridicule each other, okay?"
Although the chubby boy was a little reserved in front of adults, it was obvious that he had been spoiled by his family. At this moment, he didn't realize his mistake at all. He straightened his neck and said, "I'm telling the truth. Lu Ziqian is a child who has no one to love."
Tong Qiao put her arm around Lu Ziqian's little shoulder and pulled him to her side. "Who said he has no one to love? You don't know how much our family loves him. "
The chubby boy looked up and asked Tong Qiao, "Are you Lu Ziqian's nanny or servant?"
"I'm neither." When Tong Qiao answered, she could feel Lu Ziqian's nervous and eager gaze. She lowered her head and met his gaze. She rubbed his hair with her big hand and asked with a smile, "I'm your mother, right?"
Children were not very good at hiding their emotions. When Tong Qiao asked this question, Lu Ziqian's watery eyes instantly sparkled. However, his little face was full of shyness. His little hand tightly grasped Tong Qiao's clothes and he nodded.
Tong Qiao's heart softened. She looked at the chubby boy and said softly, "Little boy, you can't make fun of your classmates in the future, okay?"
The chubby boy's face was red. He stared at Tong Qiao as if he had been greatly wronged.
At this moment, a woman's voice came from outside the door. "Zhuang Zhuang …"
The chubby boy immediately ran out of the door.
Tong Qiao bent slightly and wanted to say something, but Lu Ziqian spoke first. "How can you go into the men's room?"
"I …"
"You're embarrassing me." Lu Ziqian threw Tong Qiao a look of disdain, then turned around and walked towards the door with a proud look on his face.
