Chapter 23 Murong Xue's home

"Why is she here?" Zhou Tao was dumbfounded and wondered for a long time why Director Yalan was sitting at the back. Previously, he came in a hurry and didn't even notice Yalan's presence. .

   The most important thing was the noise in the class, which made me ignore the possibility of a teacher coming to take the assessment. No wonder these students asked questions, and they asked them so actively. It seemed that they had known that Director Yalan was there for a long time.

   During the lecture, several students raised questions that always pointed to Director Yalan, but I didn't think about it that much at the time. Now that I'm fine, I finally let it slip!

   Last time Director Yalan asked her to conduct a 6,000-word inspection. This time she offended Director Yalan. How would she punish herself? Thinking of this, Zhou Tao's scalp felt numb!

   Of course, Zhou Tao also felt puzzled. If naughty guys like Cheng Cheng and Lin Guaiguai didn't remind him, why didn't Murong Xue give a hint?

   At this moment, Zhou Tao noticed that Murong Xue had lowered her head all the time, as if she was avoiding something. He couldn't help but was slightly startled and said: "Murong Xue, what's wrong with you?"

   "Teacher, I'm... fine!"

   When he heard Zhou Tao's question, Murong Xue's delicate body trembled inadvertently, and Zhou Tao could clearly feel the vibrato in Murong Xue's words, which made him frown inadvertently.

   "Murong Xue, come out with me." He knew Murong Xue's character well, and he would definitely not say anything in front of everyone, so he sent Murong Xue directly to the classroom.

   As soon as Zhou Tao went out, there was a sudden noise in the classroom.

   He couldn't care so much. When he reached the corner of the stairs, Zhou Tao turned around and looked at Murong Xue opposite. She still had her head lowered, and her whole person looked pitiful.

   Zhou Tao spoke again: "Xiaoxue, there is no one else here now. Please raise your head and let the teacher take a look."

   Murong Xue hesitated for a moment, and finally raised her head.

   "Damn it!"

   Seeing the bruises on Murong Xue's beautiful and delicate face, a surge of anger rose up in Zhou Tao's heart. If this kind of thing happened to Lin Guaiguai and the others, it would be a little more cute at most, because Lin Guaiguai and the others are troublemakers. They often bully others, and few people can bully them. .

   But Murong Xue is different. She will never bully others. Under normal circumstances, others will not take the initiative to provoke Murong Xue. Zhou Tao's pupils shrank and he asked, "Is it that Uncle Quan?"

   Zhou Tao still remembers what happened that night very clearly. He gave that dirty guy a good lesson. I didn't expect him to dare to do this. Could it be that he still felt itchy?

   "no."

   Crystal tears flowed down Murong Xue's eyes, which made Zhou Tao feel particularly distressed. He took out a tissue and gently wiped away the wet tears for Murong Xue.

   "Who is that? Tell the teacher, and the teacher will help you."

   In front of Murong Xue, Zhou Tao didn't need to hide anything at all. That night, the other side of himself was nakedly displayed in front of Murong Xue.

   Murong Xue shook her head and did not say it directly.

   Zhou Tao is a smart man. Seeing the expression on Murong Xue's face, an idea flashed in his mind. He couldn't help but take a deep breath and said, "Are they your family?"

   This time, Murong Xue was silent, which of course confirmed Zhou Tao's guess.

   Murong Xue's family information immediately appeared in Zhou Tao's mind. She had parents and an older brother. It was said that her parents were both workers, and her older brother had dropped out of school long ago and was working in other places.

   Then the elder brother was naturally excluded, and the mother could not be cruel. Thinking of this, he understood: "Why did your father beat you?"

   "He... drank too much. In fact, he is usually very good to me and has never hit me." Murong Xue seemed to be worried that Zhou Tao would settle a score with her father, she said quickly.

   "Drink too much?" Zhou Tao's eyes showed a playful light. After the second class, it was dinner time, and he happened to go there for a while. Thinking of this, Zhou Tao did not hesitate any more: "Let's go, the teacher is going Meet your father..."

   "I..."

   Murong Xue looked a little hesitant, her beautiful eyes stared at Zhou Tao nervously, and said: "Teacher, you don't know how to do it, do you?"

   "Won't!"

   Zhou Tao smiled calmly. If he was a good father, he would naturally not do anything. If he was not a competent father, then don't blame yourself.

   Driving the car, we soon arrived at the downstairs of Murong Xue's house. As soon as we got out of the car, a middle-aged woman saw Murong Xue and said hurriedly: "Xiaoxue, don't go back, your father is going crazy with alcohol!"

   After hearing this, Murong Xue's face changed drastically and she hurriedly ran upstairs. She thought of her mother. When her father was drunk, he would often hit her.

   The injuries on his face were caused by protecting his mother. After his father sobered up, he felt heartbroken when he saw his precious daughter injured.

   This is a Tongzi building from the 1970s and 1980s, and on the second floor, many people were already standing in the corridor. They gathered around the door and looked into the house.

   Some of them were gloating and watching the fun, while others were talking about something!

   "Snapped!"

   The loud voice came from inside the house, and Murong Xue became nervous. She hurriedly quickened her pace and squeezed in through the crowd.

   "Mother!"

   When he saw it, his mother was huddled in the corner, while his father was smashing some things, such as plates, bowls, water bottles, etc. There were pieces all over the floor. Murong Xue's first reaction was to run towards her mother.

   When Murong Changping, who was in a drunken state, saw someone coming in, he slapped him in the face. Unfortunately, his hand stopped in mid-air before it even touched Murong Xue.

   It was a big and powerful hand. No matter how hard Murong Changping tried, he could not break free from that big hand.

   "Don't hurt my father."

   Seeing this scene, Murong Xue's heart tightened and she quickly stopped her. Murong Xue's mother also looked at Zhou Tao pleadingly. Obviously, Murong Changping was usually a good father and a good husband.

   "He's not drunk!" Zhou Tao had no intention of taking action. After he let go of his hand, he glanced across Murong Changping's face and said coldly.

   "No, if he was not drunk, he would definitely not hit his mother." Murong Xue looked sure.

   "Yeah?"

   Zhou Tao laughed playfully. He walked to the big color TV, suddenly lifted the TV and threw it to the ground.

   "boom!"

   No one expected that Zhou Tao would do this. When he raised the big color TV and smashed it to the ground, it was too late to stop him. All he heard was a violent noise, and the big color TV had been destroyed.

   Zhou Tao had no intention of stopping. He continued to walk towards the refrigerator. Obviously, his next target was the refrigerator, and he wanted to reimburse this big thing.

   "Stop it."

   The refrigerator was very close to Murong Changping. When Zhou Tao walked to the refrigerator and was about to knock it down, Murong Changping guarded the refrigerator like an eagle guarding a chicken.

   "Murong Changping, are you really drunk?"

   This time, Zhou Tao did not push down the refrigerator, but looked at Murong Changping like a sharp sword.

   Murong Changping fell silent.

   I saw Zhou Tao walking to the middle of the room, pointing at the broken things, and said coldly: "Drunk people don't know whether things are good or bad or valuable, but even if you smash things, you always choose the cheap ones, such as color TVs. Refrigerators, air conditioners, these are high-priced items, and you know it very well, so naturally you won't break them."

   When Zhou Tao said this, he paused for a moment and said with a cold expression: "Is it possible that your wife who has been with you for many years doesn't have a color TV or a refrigerator? Is it true that you are reluctant to smash the color TV and the refrigerator, but are willing to beat your wife? Is this your masculine nature?"

   In fact, what Zhou Tao said was straight to the point. Indeed, a truly drunk person would not know whether things are valuable or not, and would not pick cheap things to smash.

   Murong Changping's flushed face turned pale, and his whole body seemed to have lost its support. He sat down on the ground with a plop, banged his head desperately, and shouted in pain: "I'm useless, it's all my fault, I'm useless." !"

   "If you tell me what's going on, maybe I can help." When Zhou Tao saw Murong Changping's painful look, his mind moved slightly. It seemed that the root of the matter would soon be revealed.

   I saw Murong Changping holding his head and saying in pain: "I...I lost Xiaoxue's bet last night!"

   "What!"

   Hearing these words, Xu Lan, who had always been gentle, seemed to have been struck by lightning. Her body trembled violently, and then she rushed towards Murong Changping like crazy: "What did you say? You actually took our daughter away?" Go out and gamble, I'll fight you!"

   Murong Xue's face turned pale. She never thought that her father, who had always loved her, would cruelly use her as a gambling chip. She stared at Murong Changping in disbelief, her beautiful eyes already sparkling.

   Zhou Tao was not only surprised, but also thought deeply. According to the situation at hand, under normal conditions, Murong Changping would definitely not do such a thing. As the saying goes: A tiger's poison cannot eat its seeds. What's more, Murong Changping loved his daughter very much.

   "Tell me specifically what's going on. Maybe I can help you solve it!" Zhou Tao's eyes fell on Murong Changping and he said calmly.

   Zhou Tao's words made Murong Changping seem to grasp at straws that saved his life. Ever since he exported his daughter last night, he had regretted it, but he couldn't find anyone who could help him.

   Now Zhou Tao can take the initiative to stand up. Even if he can't help anything, the kind of psychological support is unimaginable.

   Then Murong Changping told the story exactly. It turned out that his precious son Murong Feng committed an offense outside and hurt someone, and others demanded compensation of 150,000 yuan.

   Otherwise, let Murong Feng go to jail. As the only son of the Murong family, Murong Changping naturally did not want to see his son go to jail. However, he raised 50,000 yuan for a long time.
