“Did you know that Nuohan has transferred to another school?”
Sheng’er informed the boy. Baby Chu was surprised to hear this. Even though he hated Nuohan, he was still surprised that the little fatty transferred schools so suddenly.
“What happened?”
“I heard that he was made to transfer school because he angered your father! I heard this from my mother!”
Baby Chu was stunned. He recalled the incident in the parking lot. Indeed, Nuohan’s family was unreasonable. They even s.n.a.t.c.hed his toy. He could tell that his father was very angry. However, he couldn’t have transferred over such a small matter, right?
Of course, Baby Chu did not know that Gu Jinglian had sent people to smash up Li Xianlai’s car. Hence, he thought that Nuohan’s family was making a mountain out of a molehill.
Sheng’er could not be bothered to dwell on it. She said to Baby Chu, “Oh well, I don’t care! No matter what, we will always be good friends, right?”
“Of course! Sheng’er will always be my good friend!” Baby Chu held her hand, and the two little children looked at each other and smiled.
Hand-in-hand, the two of them returned to the cla.s.sroom. On entering the room, they noticed the other children looking at them in awe and fear!
“Why would Sheng’er still dare to hold hands with Baby Chu?”
“Sheng’er is so pitiful!”
“Could it be that she likes Baby Chu?”
“No way…”
As Baby Chu walked back to his seat, he could feel countless pairs of eyes staring at his back like needles. This feeling was very strange. He suddenly realized that he had become an anomaly and was being ostracized. Baby Chu turned around with some grievance, only to see the children shrinking back, looking terrified of him.
Did it have to come to this?
During lunch, besides Sheng’er, all the other children sat far away from Baby Chu. When it was time for afternoon nap, Teacher Xue transferred his nap partner to another bed. For the entire afternoon, Baby Chu did not sleep. He sat up and looked at the other beds. The other children had their napping partners, but he seemed to have been abandoned by the world.
How could things have turned out this way?
How did he inexplicably become an anomaly?
Why did so many children suddenly distance themselves from him?!
He didn’t do anything wrong, nor did he bully anyone.
Why were the children ostracizing him?
During the afternoon activity cla.s.s, Baby Chu stood alone in the gymnasium. He looked at the other children who were having fun and felt so wronged that he was on the verge of tears.
Just as Sheng’er was about to walk over to him, a child stopped her, “Sheng’er, stop playing with Gu Chengze!”
“Why?”
“Because if you upset Baby Chu in any way, his father will get very angry! If he were to get angry, maybe…”
The little kid then leaned over and whispered into her ear. Sheng’er’s expression became rather complicated. She stood there hesitating, and was subsequently pulled away by the other children. With every step she took, she would turn back to look at Baby Chu, reluctant to part with him.
“Sheng’er…” When Baby Chu saw that even Sheng’er didn’t want to play with him, his eyes reddened, but he held back his tears.
That night, when Chu He came to pick him up from school, she saw him sitting in the cla.s.sroom, motionless and gloomy. All the children were packing their bags, except for him. He was staring blankly at the empty table with a worried expression. Chu He found this rather strange and walked into the cla.s.sroom. Then, she noticed that all the children were walking around Baby Chu, deliberately avoiding him..
