Ning Xi was wearing Lu Tingxiao's windbreaker, which covered her tightly. Just as she was about to ask Lu Tingxiao if he wanted to go to the company later, she suddenly felt a vibration on her clothes.
"Lu Tingxiao, it seems like your phone is ringing."
Lu Tingxiao took out his cell phone from his coat pocket, took a look at it, and frowned slightly.
"What's wrong? Who's calling?" Ning Xi couldn't help but ask.
Whose call was it that made Lu Tingxiao look like "I can't handle this"? It was really strange...
"Xiaobao's teacher." Lu Tingxiao replied.
"Ah? Isn't it class time now? Why is the teacher calling me at this time?" Ning Xi asked suspiciously.
Lu Tingxiao thought for a moment and handed the phone to Ning Xi, "You answer it."
Obviously, Lu Tingxiao was not very good at dealing with a creature like his son's teacher.
"Ah? I answer it?" Ning Xi scratched her head, "Uh, okay... I also think it's better for me to answer it..."
It was hard to imagine Lu Tingxiao communicating with Xiaobao's teacher. The teacher might have talked until his lips were sore and he would just reply with a "hmm".
Of course, the more likely possibility is that the teacher was about to say something when Lu Tingxiao frightened her into not daring to say anything...
Therefore, Ning Xi did not refuse and directly picked up Lu Tingxiao's phone to answer the call. In order to let Lu Tingxiao know the content, she turned on the speaker.
"Hello, is this Lu Qingyu's father?" The female teacher's inquiring voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Hello, Teacher Wang. I am Lu Qingyu's mother." In order to facilitate communication, Ning Xi said this without thinking too much.
But I don't know... What kind of emotions were surging in Lu Tingxiao's heart when he heard this.
"Did something happen to the child at school?" Ning Xi asked nervously.
"No, Mrs. Lu, don't be nervous. I came to you today to confirm with you and Mr. Lu. Are you sure you can't spare the time this afternoon? Even if only one of you comes! If neither of you comes, the child will be alone and it will be too pitiful!" The teacher's tone implied some dissatisfaction.
In order to allow Xiaobao to go to school like normal children, no one in the school knows Xiaobao's true identity except the principal, including the teachers.
Therefore, all the information the teacher knew was that the child came from a well-off family, was a little autistic, didn't like to talk, and that the child's parents were very busy and didn't seem to have a very good relationship, because except for the first day of school, the two of them had never been seen together to pick up the child.
Ning Xi was confused and asked hesitantly, "This afternoon? Is there any activity at school today?"
"Don't you know?" the teacher asked in surprise.
Ning Xi cast a suspicious look at Lu Tingxiao, and Lu Tingxiao shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't know either.
So Ning Xi replied, "My husband and I don't know. It seems that Xiaobao didn't tell us when he came back."
"Didn't tell me? How could that be... I even confirmed it with him several times..."
The teacher sounded suspicious, then began to explain, "It's like this, the school has arranged a parent-child activity this afternoon and is going to hold a masquerade.
I had asked the children to go home and inform their parents a few days ago, and also sent a letter to the parents. I was afraid that they would forget, so I reminded them several times.
From the list compiled yesterday, Lu Qingyu was the only child in the class whose parents could not come, but at least one of the other children came."
