Chapter 310: 306. Charity Donation (Please subscribe, monthly tickets!)

Huo Zhiyuan and Liu Lu saw Sicheng at the same time; Liu Lu gave a soft huff and turned her head away, ignoring Sicheng.

Huo Zhiyuan looked at Liu Lu, then at Sicheng, sighed softly in her heart, and then said to Sicheng, "Oh, isn't this Young Master Zhang? How do you have time to come over? Didn't you go to accompany your beautiful bride?"

They had already received the video from Zhang Ran in the morning and knew that Sicheng had not actually cheated.

However, there was clearly still some knot in Liu Lu's heart, and this needed to be untied.

And to untie it, communication was necessary; Huo Zhiyuan was paving the way for their communication.

Sicheng gave a bitter smile and said, "Huo Yi, please don't tease me. I am truly wronged. Not only do you and Xiao Lu wrong me, but my dad also wrongs me."

As he spoke, he pointed to the side of his face that had not yet lost its swelling and said, "Huo Yi, look at this. This was hit by my dad. He didn't distinguish right from wrong and just slapped me as soon as he came up. Huo Yi, you must stand up for me; you can't let my dad be this dictatorial anymore."

Hearing Sicheng's words, a flash of joy appeared in Huo Zhiyuan's eyes. She tried to force herself to appear calm, but the smile that appeared at the corners of her mouth could not be hidden from anyone at all.

Seeing this scene, Sicheng secretly gave himself a thumbs up!

Hearing Sicheng's words, Liu Lu also subconsciously looked at Sicheng. When she saw that Sicheng's face was indeed swollen, and if one looked closely, one could even see a palm print, she suddenly felt a bit of heartache.

Liu Lu stood up subconsciously and said, "I'll go get some medicine..."

Just after saying this, she gave a soft huff and sat back down again.

Sicheng looked at Huo Zhiyuan for help. Huo Zhiyuan gave a light cough and said, "Well, Xiao Lu, Sicheng knows he was wrong, so just forgive him."

"Besides, he didn't actually do anything wrong, and your dad has already punished him. Why don't we just let it go this time?"

Liu Lu huffed, "Who knows if he had the intention? Maybe he just didn't have the guts, or didn't get the chance yet."

Sicheng hurriedly said, "Xiao Lu, you have to believe me. I am single-minded toward you and absolutely have no other thoughts. You must believe me."

"Your heart is in your own body, how would I know?" Liu Lu said. In fact, she had already forgiven Sicheng at this moment.

One reason was that Sicheng had indeed not done anything wrong; the second was because of Zhang Xiaotao; and the third was because of Zhang Ran's attitude.

Liu Lu knew everything about the Zhang Family and knew that Zhang Ran owed Sicheng and his sister over twenty years of paternal love and responsibility.

Therefore, she also knew that since Zhang Ran could harden his heart to hit Sicheng, it represented his attitude.

Just as Zhang Ran had said, he truly regarded Liu Lu as family and would not favor anyone!

Otherwise, this slap would not have landed on Sicheng's face, nor would it have been hit so hard.

Sicheng and Liu Lu had lived together for nearly ten years, so knowing that Liu Lu was not very angry anymore, he hurriedly put aside his pride and went forward to say some nice things.

Seeing this, Huo Zhiyuan knew there was nothing left for her to do, and not wanting to stay here and eat "dog food," she got up and went to stroll elsewhere.

Sicheng and Liu Lu talked for a while, and Liu Lu's anger completely vanished. Afterward, looking at Sicheng's swollen cheek, she said with some heartache, "Why didn't you know to dodge a little?"

Sicheng complained, "How did I know our dad was going to hit me as soon as he came up? Besides, a father hitting his son is only natural. Could I dodge the first day but not the fifteenth?"

Seeing that he held no anger toward Zhang Ran in his heart, Liu Lu also quietly breathed a sigh of relief. She was also afraid that because of this incident, Sicheng would harbor resentment toward Zhang Ran.

It must be said that there is a reason for the sense of recognition Zhang Ran and his family have for Liu Lu; no matter what, Liu Lu always considers her family.

"Then why didn't you buy some anti-inflammatory liquid on the way to apply?" Liu Lu said with heartache while wiping Sicheng's cheek with medicinal liquid.

There was plenty of such medicine for bruises and injuries here, and it was all the best; Principal Su had always prepared very well in this regard.

Sicheng didn't dare say that Zhang Ran wouldn't let him, so he just said, "I only just found out you were angry, so I ran over here in a hurry to explain it clearly to you. There was no time on the road."

"Hmph, so according to you, I was throwing a tantrum for no reason?" Liu Lu said huffily, though the movements of her hands did not stop.

"Of course not. This time it was my fault. I didn't consider your feelings, and it absolutely won't happen next time." Sicheng hurriedly said.

"There's a next time? What? Are you still in contact with that Lu Xin?" On matters like this, Liu Lu was no different from other women.

"Of course not. I will absolutely never contact her again. My dad also warned her to not appear in our circle from now on." Sicheng knew that his words might not be that credible to Liu Lu right now, so he brought up Zhang Ran.

Hearing that this was what Zhang Ran said, Liu Lu didn't say anything more.

At dinner, Zhang Xiaotao and Susu were both very happy to see Sicheng arrive, but after Susu was happy, she said, "Uncle, where are Mommy and Grandpa?"

Sicheng kissed Susu's chubby little cheek and said, "Mommy is still working, and Grandpa will be back tomorrow."

"Oh, I miss Mommy, and I miss Grandpa too," Susu said, pouting her little mouth.

"Then we'll have your grandpa come over with Mommy tomorrow," Huo Zhiyuan said from the side.

Seeing that his sister's Big Boss had spoken, Sicheng didn't say anything.

While they were eating, Principal Su came over to find them.

"Principal Su, please sit down. Would you like to eat something with us?" Huo Zhiyuan invited.

Principal Su hurriedly said, "No need. I'm disturbing your meal; I'm sorry."

"It's fine. Does Principal Su have something on your mind?" Huo Zhiyuan said.

"Yes, there is a matter I would like to ask President Huo to help with," Principal Su said, looking a bit embarrassed.

"Please go ahead, Principal Su. Is there any way I can be of help?"

"It's like this: every time we hold the Summer Camp, there is a charity donation activity. Of course, we don't donate money, just some old clothes the children can no longer wear. It's not mandatory; it's all voluntary, and it will be anonymous. This time, I want to expand the scale and call upon the whole school, but I don't have the ability to organize such an event, so I wanted to ask President Huo for some help," Principal Su said.

When they signed up for the Summer Camp activities, Zhang Ran and the others already knew there was such an activity, and everyone was very supportive. After all, this could set a good example for the children and also let them participate in such charity activities.

They had already prepared the clothes and such; they were just waiting until it was almost over to have someone send them over from home directly, as there were quite a lot of these clothes and they weren't easy to bring all at once.

Moreover, the shipping costs this time would also be covered by the school.
