Chapter 74 Smoke

"Ah?" Lu Er was a little hesitant, "It might take a while."

Ji Xinghe rested his left elbow on the window sill, "I'm fine today."

"Okay, then I'll do it as soon as possible." She stepped into the door with one foot, then she remembered something and turned her head to ask him, "Do you want to come in?"

The glass window was tapped twice, Ji Xinghe smiled, "No, I'll wait for you in the car."

"it is good."

After Lu Er entered, Wu Yu closed the glass door, and he saw the man in the car sneer at him through the window.

He didn't know why, the man was full of hostility towards him from the first sight, even he didn't want to see him.

"Mr. Lulu!"

"Sister Xiaolu, you are here!"

Deer ear touched their heads one by one to say hello.

When the door was closed, the cold wind was blocked from the outside, Wu Yu came over and stood with Lu Er.

Lu Er said to the children: "Have you brought all the things that Teacher Wu asked you to prepare?"

"Bring it!" Several people said in unison, and pointed to the rest area next to them, where the big schoolbags were placed, "put them there."

Wu Yu on the side interjected in a timely manner, "They brought it in the morning, and I have already checked it for them. Except for a few toilet utensils that can't be used and have to be bought again, they are basically complete."

Lu Er, the hands-off shopkeeper, was ashamed of himself, and Wu Yu took care of many things by himself, "I'm really sorry, I didn't feel well this morning, so I couldn't come here."

"Are you uncomfortable?" Wu Yu's eyebrows squeezed into vertical creases, and he looked at Lu'er worriedly.

"Is sister Xiaolu sick?!"

"Ah, isn't it uncomfortable there?"

"Have you taken medicine?"

The children also smelled it in a hurry.

Lu Er hurriedly waved his hands and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's a small matter, I've taken the medicine and I'm fine."

Now that the equipment has been sorted out, Lu Er doesn't need to keep any more, so she asked Wu Yu to make a list of the items to be repurchased and send it to her.

"I'll just go buy it, it's not too much," Wu Yu said.

"You've worked hard enough. Let's get off work early today," Lu'er refused. "I'll be busy in the next few days, so I, my friend, can send me shopping."

After Lu Er said so, Wu Yu didn't insist anymore. He lowered his eyes and contacted a few parents on their mobile phones to confirm the exact time to leave tomorrow.

"Sister Xiaolu! Sister Xiaolu!" A little boy ran over suddenly, his face full of anxiety.

"what happened?"

The little boy ran up to her, raised his head, pointed in the direction of the classroom with one hand, and said, "Xiao Yuhua is crying."

Lu'er raised her eyebrows and followed the little boy to the classroom, "Why is she crying?"

A few well-informed children gathered around and complained.

A little girl with two long braids: "She said her clothes are too ragged, and people will laugh at her when she goes to the competition."

Wu Yu and Lu'er looked at each other. Although Xiao Yuhua's family conditions are very poor, she is not inferior. She is a sunny and cheerful child. How could she suddenly think of this.
"She didn't say it herself!" Another little boy with a watermelon head retorted.

Wu Yu said: "Xiaomi, you and Xiao Yuhua are classmates, do you know what's going on?"

Xiaomi nodded vigorously: "I know! Yesterday at school, Xiao Yuhua told her deskmate that she was going to take a plane to participate in the drawing competition. She was very happy at first, but in the end she was picked up by some naughty and annoying people in our class. When the boys heard it, they called Xiao Yuhua. They said she was dressed like a beggar with so many patches, she must be ashamed to go out to the competition, and said she was a liar."

"Come to learn painting today, and Bobo said that his mother knitted a new sweater for him to wear in the competition. Xiao Yuhua cried again after hearing that."

Walking to the door of the classroom, Lu Er probably understood clearly.

Xiao Yuhua was sitting in the corner of the classroom, leaning over her easel and sobbing, with children comforting her.

Wu Yu just wanted to go in, but was stopped by Lu Er and pinched his shoulder, blinked at him, and then raised his voice and called his name: "Teacher Wu."

"Huh?!" Wu Yu was obviously at a loss, and responded slowly.

Lu Er blinked at him face to face again, the voice was loud enough for the people around to hear, "I thought about it, since we are going out to compete, it would be easier for the children to wear uniform clothes, what do you think?"

Wu Yu, who was in the fog just now, suddenly realized what Luer meant, and said along the way: "I also think it's okay, the photos taken this way are neat and can be used for post-publicity."

Lu Er nodded: "Okay, I'll go later."

This time they finalized, the crying in the classroom became much quieter, and Lu Er smiled at Wu Yu.

The small stone fell into the deep pool water, rippling the entire lake.

They are innocent and fragile, and they must be carefully cared for and guarded to bloom.

Considering the size of the clothes, Lu Er decided to take a child with him. Wu Yu chose the person, and this task fell on Xiao Yuhua's head like a heavenly choice. After all, her height and figure are the most moderate among the children.

"Me?" Xiao Yuhua asked in surprise with red eyes and tears still on her face.

"Yeah." Lu Er affirmed, "Are you in a hurry to go home?"

Xiao Yuhua shook her head, "Don't worry."

Lu Er smiled softly, "Then I will trouble you."

Push open the glass door.

With shoulders and elbows half leaning against the glass window, Ji Xinghe's posture was the same as when Lu'er left, except that a cigarette was caught between the knuckle fingers sticking out of the window, and Xinghuo's cigarette butt was emitting white smoke.

Ji Xinghe's eyes looked over, lazy and deep, like a bottomless whirlpool.

This was the first time that Lu'er saw Ji Xinghe smoking, even a few months ago, she had never seen them together day and night.Maybe, it's just that he didn't want her to know.

But she didn't feel any disgust at all, on the contrary, she still faintly felt the breathtaking charm, and her every gesture was full of extravagance.

Lu'er turned sideways to look away from Ji Xinghe, and pulled Xiao Yuhua down the steps.When he walked to the front of the car, Ji Xinghe had already extinguished the cigarette, leaving only a faint smell of smoke.

"Okay?" Ji Xinghe raised his eyebrows.

"I want to take her shopping." Lu Er led Xiao Yuhua and explained to him in front of the car.

"Get in the car."

Lu Er opened the car door for Xiao Yuhua and sent her up, while he went to the front passenger seat.

"Teacher Wu!" Xiao Yuhua yelled while lying on the window.

Wu Yu stood on the steps and waved to her lightly, "Listen to sister Xiaolu."

His eyes shifted slightly to meet the man in the driver's seat again. One second before the car left, he saw the man smiling coldly.

After driving the car for a while, the smell of cigarettes in the car was almost gone. Lu Er noticed the unpacked pack of cigarettes on the center console, "I didn't know you wanted to smoke."

Ji Xinghe didn't look back at her, but still stared forward, "Don't you like it?"

"No." Lu Er shook his head, "When will it be?"

"."

The car was silent for a second, Ji Xinghe drew a circle in his mouth with his tongue, and replied flatly: "... a few years ago."

To be precise, it was in the third year of high school, after Lu Er transferred to another school.

The days of pain and suffering can only be alleviated by cigarettes.

But Ji Xinghe didn't say anything about the latter, he added: "I smoke less now."

now smoke less
Lu Er pondered these words silently, feeling a little hurt in his heart, so he didn't continue to ask.
