Chapter 19: Teacher Karena's care
Zhang Xiu returned home and found that his mother was not at home.
Not only did he care about his mother, because he used to have his mother go out often. Maybe she went to church to grab some free water and food, maybe she went to the river to wash clothes, maybe even went shoppingβafter all, Zhang Xiugang gave all the 100,000 prize money to his mother.
Zhang Xiu skillfully went to the kitchen to start preparing dinner, and at this moment, the mobile phone rang.
"Zhang Xiu, help me buy something." On the opposite side was Ye Zina's crisp voice.
βγγγ Ha? Zhang Xiu didn't react for a while.
"Are you deaf? Help me buy something and have it delivered to my house! Ye Zina said unceremoniously.
"Miss, I'm a bodyguard, not a maid, why don't you find your maid if you want to buy something?"
"Aunt Xia, she has something to do today, why are you talking so much nonsense? Have you forgotten the third chapter of the covenant? β
"No, you're going to go yourself, I've been tasked with keeping you safe at school, not including anything else." Zhang Xiu also had a little temper.
"You, you, you......"
"I'll hang up if it's nothing." Zhang Xiu said.
"Don't don't ......" Before the other side of the phone finished speaking, Zhang Xiu hung up the phone.
After a while, the phone rang again.
Zhang Xiu looked at his phone, sighed, and reconnected the phone: "What's the matter, Miss." β
There were no words on the other side of the phone, just the sound of slight breathing.
"It's okay, I'm hanging." Zhang Xiu said.
"You dare." Ye Zina said softly, to Zhang Xiu's surprise, Ye Zina's voice was crying.
Zhang Xiu wondered if he had gone too far.
Ye Zina sniffed and said sourly, "No one has ever dared to hang up on my phone." β
"I fell and injured my foot on the stairs at home, and Aunt Xia is not here, I want you to help me buy some, buy some, buy some sanitary napkins."
Zhang Xiu was stunned when he heard it, he put down his mobile phone, stretched out his little finger and gouged out his ear.
"Do you hear that? Feed? Feed? β
"Listen, hear." Zhang Xiu hurriedly replied, and he added again, "Why are you not ready for this kind of thing?" β
ββ¦β¦ I've had a bad cycle in the last few months. For some reason, Ye Zina didn't lose her temper anymore.
"Okay, okay, I'll buy it now."
"Remember to ask for a lace brand."
γγγγγγ
Zhang Xiu never knew where sanitary napkins were sold, so he went out and visited a few convenience stores in the slums, and the owners said that there was no lace brand.
"What, Lesney, you're tired, where are you?" Zhang Xiu said to himself, he looked at the tall buildings in the distance, and wondered if he should go to the CBD area to buy it.
It's really worthy of the eldest lady, even the sanitary napkins are so advanced.
Zhang Xiu walked out of the slum and drove the strange car in a free parking lot next to it.
He didn't dare to park the car in the slums, although the car was ordinary in appearance, no matter how ordinary the car appeared in the slums, it would be too eye-catching, and he didn't know what the untouchables who lived here would do.
Zhang Xiu himself is a pariah, so he understands the truth that poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people.
This has nothing to do with quality, in the face of a cruel living environment, no matter what kind of morality has to give way.
Sitting in the driver's seat, he was still a little excited, after all, he was able to drag race in the name of work. But it's a pity that the CBD area at night is not suitable for driving at all, the road is full of crowded vehicles, Zhang Xiu persisted for half an hour and finally decided to give up driving, find a place to stop and start walking.
It's a completely different world from the slums. Here, hundreds of meters of buildings rise from the ground, and panoramic advertisements are reflected on the walls, and the lights are shining. Passers-by came in groups, wearing brand-name clothes, they were all polite, and they would smile at anyone, which Zhang Xiu had never felt.
Knowing etiquette and knowing etiquette and knowing honor and disgrace when food and clothing are sufficient. When living in the slums, there was no smile between people at all, except for the lifeless silence, only cold and wary gazes.
Zhang Xiu happily strolled around the street, like an elderly woman who entered a big family for the first time in that well-known novel. However, he did not forget his mission, and when he almost got lost, he finally found the sanitary napkins of the "Lesney" brand in a supermarket.
Just as Zhang Xiu was comparing two packs of lace sanitary napkins with different packages, someone behind him called him.
"Zhang Xiu?"
Zhang Xiu turned his head and found that it was Teacher Karina.
"Old, good teacher." Zhang Xiu didn't expect to meet acquaintances here.
"What a coincidence, Zhang Xiu, you are also here to buy, buy... Karena said and realized that Zhang Xiu had come to buy sanitary napkins like her, and couldn't help but blush a little.
Zhang Xiu also blushed, and he hurriedly explained: "This, someone asked me to buy this." β
"Hmm." Karena gently combed her hair between her sideburns and took out a pack of sanitary napkins from the shelf and put it in the shopping column.
"Goodbye, teacher, I'm leaving." Zhang Xiu said hello and was about to leave.
"Alas, wait." Karena stopped him.
Zhang Xiu turned back suspiciously, and Karena said, "I haven't had time to talk to you after the accident today, so the teacher will invite you to have a supper." β
Zhang Xiu knew that Karena probably wanted to talk to her about the fight in the afternoon, and he couldn't refuse the teacher's invitation, and he noticed that he hadn't even eaten dinner yet, so he sent an email to Ye Zina on his mobile phone, saying that he would be late to deliver the sanitary napkin to the teacher.
The place where Karena invited Zhang Xiu for supper was a coffee shop next to the mall.
They sat facing each other, and instead of the unsentimental nun gown she used to wear at school, Karena was now wearing a sleek denim jacket and low-cut T-shirt, with a snow-white furrow on her chest and a silver cross charm.
Zhang Xiu didn't know where to put his eyes, he didn't dare to stare at Teacher Karina, and when he lowered his gaze, he would fall on the whiteness of his chest, so he had to turn his head and pretend to look at the scenery.
At this time, he noticed that the people at the other tables were a couple of intimate couples, thinking that he and Teacher Karena were also couples in the eyes of outsiders now, Zhang Xiu couldn't help but feel uneasy.
"Zhang Xiu, what's going on with Faraki today, can you tell me?" Karena started the conversation.
"It was Faraki who took the initiative to provoke me, and he slandered me." Zhang Xiu said.
"Zhang Xiu, whether or not Faraki took the initiative to provoke him, you shouldn't go against him. His family is very powerful, and if he really wants to deal with you, it's too simple. Karena said.
Zhang Xiu raised his head and saw Karina's worried expression, knowing that she was really caring about herself, and her heart warmed.
