Chapter 199 If No One Comes

In fact, Tao Xinyi tried to call her mother, but she didn't answer, so she sent her a text message.

Until the day before the parent-teacher meeting, Tao Xinyi did not receive a reply from her mother... In desperation, Tao Xinyi had to comfort herself that this was just a small thing that no one cared about, and it didn't matter if no one went there.

Some people worry that they will be scolded by their parents if they fail the exam, some expect their parents to praise them after passing the exam, and some expect their parents to come.

The entire class three, including Lu Ming, didn't know that Tao Xinyi's parents might not attend the parent-teacher meeting.Even though Tao Xinyi was sad and frightened, she was unwilling to tell Lu Ming.She didn't want to make herself too embarrassed and look too pitiful.

Lu Ming was also very busy, he had to brush up the questions, and even started to suffer from insomnia.

Perhaps, he lost sleep because he was worried about me, and I couldn't make him worry too much.

At noon on Friday, Tao Xinyi sat at the table and took out her mobile phone while Lu Ming was away, but found that she still hadn't received any reply, and her heart was soaked in ice water.

She patted Liu Zijian on the shoulder, and said softly, "I...I have to go to Teacher Wang. Remember to tell him when Lu Ming comes back."

Liu Zijian nodded to speak, but continued to tidy up his desk without looking back.

At 01:30 in the afternoon, Wang Ying came to the classroom to hand out the students' grade slips and let them be posted on the desks for parents to read.

Lu Ming held his score sheet and stared blankly at the "Total score: 672 points" printed on it. His eyes flashed with light. Suddenly, there was a burst of thunder in his ears, and a dazzling white light flashed outside the window, illuminating the gloomy sky for a moment. .

Why hasn't Xinyi come back yet?

Wang Ying has already come to the classroom, why hasn't she come back yet?

In an instant, the sky darkened, the torrential rain poured down, the dense "click" sound was as chaotic as the heartbeat of the students, and cold water vapor poured in through the glass.

He stood up to close the window, just in time to meet the bees flying into the classroom to hide from the rain.

With a clear "da", the window was closed, and the bees stopped on Xinyi's desk, moving in small steps, as if they were inspecting their new territory.

Just as Lu Ming was about to sit down, Wang Ying's voice came from his ear.

"The top ten in the class took umbrellas to pick up their parents at the school gate. I was afraid that some parents didn't bring umbrellas."

Hearing this, Lu Ming seemed to realize something, and suddenly turned his head to look at Wang Ying, looking at Xinyi's empty place.He walked up to Wang Ying with an umbrella, and asked softly, "Has Xinyi visited you at noon?"

Wang Ying looked at him suspiciously, and said, "No. I think it's raining heavily, so grab your umbrella and go pick up your parents."

"it is good."

As soon as the words fell, he rushed out of the classroom with a big dark blue umbrella, frowned, and walked in front of the students who were going to pick up their parents.However, after leaving the teaching building, the others walked towards the school gate, while Lu Ming walked towards the gazebo.

Zhao Mengpeng looked at Lu Ming's back and shouted, "Aren't you going?"

"You guys go first!"

After saying that, Lu Ming ran while holding an umbrella, his shoes were soaked by the rain, his school trousers were half wet, and many mud spots were splashed on them.Running to the gazebo, he saw through the mist that Xinyi was sitting on a marble bench in a daze, looking helplessly at the ground with lowered eyes.

Lu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head and saw himself in such a mess, sighed helplessly, walked slowly into the gazebo, and said, "Why are you hiding here secretly?"

"How do you know I'm here?"

"I remember that you were in a bad mood when you held the parent-teacher meeting last time, and you hid out too. It's raining, and I think your umbrella is still in the classroom, and you will probably hide from the rain here..."

Before he could finish speaking, Tao Xinyi interrupted him and said softly:
"I came out to breathe. I didn't expect it to rain, so I had to wait for the rain to stop. Every time I was sad, you found out... I'm fine, it's just a temporary feeling. You know, my family is like that , the parents will always be sad."

Lu Ming was silent for a moment, and said, "Why are you avoiding me?"

"Because I'm afraid you'll worry about me. I know it well. If I'm a little sad, I'll just digest it by myself. When I'm very sad, I won't hide from you."

Tao Xinyi stood up, looked up at Lu Ming, looked at his dark circles, and said, "You are tired too, and I don't want to rely on you for everything. I also want to help you share some of the burden, but I don't seem to be able to help you. place. Besides, I'm three months older than you, so I'm considered an older sister."

"I'm fine..."

When Lu Ming was halfway speaking, Tao Xinyi stretched out her hand to cover his mouth, pushed him down on the marble stool, and whispered: "Watch the rain with me for a while."

Then, Lu Ming opened his eyes, but he didn't have the intention to look at the rain, but silently looked at Xinyi beside him.

Tao Xinyi knew that he was looking at herself, watching the rain curtain falling from the eaves of the pavilion, watching the water droplets hitting the ground and splashing a thin layer of water mist, and muttered softly: "The cloud turns into rain, hugging Mother Earth is considered home. Let's go back to the classroom, I want to see if my mother will come...."

A big dark blue umbrella just covered the two people.

Accompanied by the sound of rain, the boy kept nagging that he was not tired, while the girl kept nagging the boy to be careful next time he held an umbrella.Walking near the teaching building, some parents of students who arrived early always looked at them twice when they saw them.

Wang Ying greeted the parents at the classroom door, saw Tao Xinyi and Lu Ming come back, and urged them to pick up the parents at the school gate.

Tao Xinyi took out the red umbrella from her schoolbag, and followed Lu Ming to pick up the parents at the school gate.

As soon as the two of them arrived at the school gate, they met Meng Ruohua, who was full of spring and well-dressed.Lu Ming looked at his mother with her hair up and makeup, a little surprised, and answered her with an umbrella.

Meng Ruohua looked at Tao Xinyi gratefully, then turned her attention to Lu Ming, and said, "Do you think I will speak on stage this time?"

Lu Ming smiled bitterly and said, "The parents of the top student in the class will go up to talk, and the parents of the student who made the most progress will go up to talk. I only improved by more than 20 points."

"Son, it's okay, keep working hard."

A trace of disappointment flashed in Meng Ruohua's eyes, and he patted him on the shoulder proudly, saying: "More than 670 is not bad, the top three. I am already very content."

When she learned that her son had scored 672 in the exam, Meng Ruohua was so excited that she couldn't fall asleep all night because she wished she could go back to her hometown to worship her ancestors.

You know, last year my son's grades were only around [-] points, and he was still struggling near the first line. Now he has the hope of being admitted to Beijing University.Lu Ming took his mother into the teaching building with an umbrella, took her to his seat and sat down, and then went back to the school gate to find Xinyi.

The moment Lu Ming stepped out of the teaching building to hold an umbrella, Lu Meiqing stepped into the school gate, and saw her daughter again after 8 days.

Tao Xinyi met her mother's eyes, her heart paused for a moment, and then it hit her chest violently. The hand holding the umbrella was a little numb. She walked forward quickly and said softly, "Mom, are you still angry?"
