The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 427: An Extra One

Shu Yu closed the courtyard door and said with a smile, “Don’t stand in the courtyard for now. Come in and sit. What do you want to drink? Let Dahu pour it for you.”

As he spoke, Shu Yu’s eyes swept over these people.

One, two, three…Nine.

Yes, there were nine of them.

She had felt that something was wrong with the number of people. Dahu had clearly said that there were eight classmates, but why was there one more now?

Not only was there an extra one, but this extra one seemed to be out of place with the others. Moreover, he was the tallest, even taller than his ten-year-old classmate.

When she was outside the courtyard earlier, she thought that these people were the family members of these students. She was worried that they would come over to escort them. After sending them off, they would go back.

In the end, this person followed them in. Not only did he enter, but his gaze was also bright as he sized up their courtyard.

Shu Yu was puzzled. Then, she saw a young student in the crowd say with an embarrassed expression, “This, this is my cousin, Jiang Leshan. He was afraid that I was young and insensible, so he followed me here to take a look. I’m sorry.”

The little boy lowered his head, looking very ashamed. He looked like he wanted to hide his head in the ground.

Shu Yu naturally wouldn’t blame him. “It’s alright. You’re a guest. Come in and sit first.”

“Thank you.”

Everyone entered the door one after another. The young student walked at the back and whispered to Dahu, who was with him, “Dahu, my cousin insisted on coming. I couldn’t stop him.”

Dahu also lowered his voice and said softly, “It’s okay. It’s just one more person. However… Didn’t you have any contact with your cousin in the past?”

“Yeah, he used to bully me and never brought me along to play. But he’s been acting strange these past two days. He suddenly came to talk to me and said that brothers should help each other. He even bought me candy and snacks. I was scared to death.”

The young student patted his chest with a look of lingering fear. “I’m not from the same school as him. In the past, when he saw me, he would avoid me and even say that our school was going to be unlucky. Yesterday, he waited for me outside after school and insisted on sending me home. Today is the same.”

Dahu comforted him. “Don’t be afraid. I’ll protect you.” Dahu was the young one, but he spoke like a little adult. “Let me tell you, my second sister is very powerful. With her around, your cousin doesn’t have to be afraid even if he’s a monster.”

The young student nodded heavily. “I’m relieved to hear that.”

The two of them walked into the main room, and Daya had already gone to the kitchen to bring tea over.

After Dahu invited his classmates to sit down, he immediately ran to the kitchen to get some food. The popcorn had not popped yet because it had to be eaten while it was hot. However, he had also prepared other food.

After Dahu went out, Shu Yu followed him and quickly caught up with him. “What did your classmate say to you just now?”

Dahu stopped in his tracks and told her the exact words without a word.

In the end, he said worriedly, “Second Sister, you said before that if you’re trying to curry favor for no reason, you’re either a traitor or a thief. Do you think his cousin has some conspiracy?”

Shu Yu pondered and felt that there was something wrong.

She suddenly remembered that when the child introduced his cousin, he said his surname was…Jiang.

Moreover, it started to be strange again in the past two days.

Shu Yu asked, “What’s the name of your classmate? Do you know what his parents do?”
