Chapter 2016: Extra: A Brand New Life 131 Chapter 2016: Extra: A Brand New Life 131 But now he couldnât do much, he just hurried people into the car and then drove quickly to the hospital, hoping the little girl could see her mother, who she depended on completely, for one last time.
He also asked the homeroom teacher to come along, as the homeroom teacher was a bit more familiar with the little girl than others.
With such an incident occurring, the homeroom teacher also wanted to go and hurried into the car, sitting in the back, embracing the little girl tightly and comforting her.
The homeroom teacherâs eyes also reddened.
The homeroom teacher even made a call to the school, explaining the situation and asking another teacher to cover for him since he had a class to teach that afternoon.
Zhou Ping drove faster, glancing at the little girl in the rearview mirror. The little girl was held in the homeroom teacherâs arms, her small doe eyes red and slowly filling with crystal-clear tears, yet they never fell, seeming on the brink but never dropping, like those of a little rabbit; she looked all the more pitiful.
Zhou Ping pursed his lips.
At this time, he actually wished the little girl wouldnât suppress herself in such a quiet way, that she would just cry out loudly, perhaps making everyone feel a bit better.
Upon reaching the hospital, the little girl still didnât get to see her mother for one last time⊠Well, she did see her for one last time, but her mother was already dead.
Finally, the little girlâs tears fell, murmuring, âMommyâŠâ
Her voice was barely audible.
But everyone present felt heartbroken.
The little girl had no one else in her family, only her mother. Without her mother, the little girl was alone⊠Fortunately, while her mother was still alive, she had spoken with the hospital about her affairs, so Mrs. Zhou helped with the arrangements, which went smoothly.
The homeroom teacher couldnât stay long as she had many students to take care of, so around eleven at night, she returned to the school.
Mrs. Zhou was also very sad. Mr. Zhou was still in S city, and Ms. Zhou wasnât in A city, so essentially, Zhou Ping was left to handle the funeral arrangements.
The little girl sat miserably by herself in a corner near the wreaths, hugging her knees. Zhou Ping, holding a medical kit, walked over to treat the wound on her knee.
He hadnât noticed it before, but discovered it later.
But since he had been busy, he only just found the time to tend to the wound on her knee.
Throughout the process, the little girl didnât speak, just holding her knees and silently shedding tears.
Zhou Ping softened his voice, fearing that even a slight drop in his tone could frighten her.
Although it was winter, the little girl wasnât dressed warmly, which was why, when she fell, even though it was severe, it ripped the fabric on her knee and injured it.
After finally treating the little girlâs wound, Zhou Ping still gently picked her up and let her sit on the blanket-covered ground beside her, instead of directly on the ground.
Even though the heating was on, sitting directly on the floor wasnât good; it was too cold, and he didnât know how long the little girl had been sitting like that.
But he suspected it had been a long while, because when he held her, he could feel the cold radiating from her body. Therefore, after setting her down, he still covered her with a blanket, and put a warmer in her arms for her to hold the warmer in her hug, not knowing how to, still clutching her knees.
He sighed deeply.
âSighâŠâ
Touching the little girlâs head, he finally said, âYou lost your mother, but you still have us⊠From now on, weâll be your family.â
