After Returning to My Biological Family, I Was Arranged to Marry

Chapter 28: A conversation

Views:

The new high-end medical cabin is very useful and has a faster medical effect than ordinary medical cabins. After Lin Zimao lay there for forty minutes, the injuries on his body were basically gone, leaving only a few shallow and thin marks, which would probably disappear in a day or two.

Although he felt regretful that he could not leave behind a record of victory, he would rather be cared for. He once again looked at the wrist that was being held by Jiang Xuan.

It's so strange, but he doesn't reject it at all.

Jiang Xuan was not at home, so he left him a message saying that he had to go out for a while.

Lin Zimao didn't ask him why he was able to find him so accurately at the competition site. Asking would only add to the troubles between them.

I don't know when a row of jelly appeared in the refrigerator. Lin Zimao had consumed a lot of energy tonight and slept in the medical cabin for a while. Now he was tired and hungry, so he ate five in one go.

Pepper and Salt lay on the sofa and licked his paw. Lin Zimao asked, "Did you eat something delicious? Otherwise, why are you licking your paw?"

Lin Zimao sniffed the smell on her body and said, "Sure enough, Jiang Xuan fed you something. Let me guess. It doesn't have a strong fishy smell. It must be canned food. There's still some stuff at the corner of your mouth. It's minced beef. You ate canned beef."

I have to say he's telling the truth.

I have raised a cat for several years, how could I not know that it has changed? There is no one else in the house except him, Jiang Xuan, but Jiang Xuan does not admit it and says it is nothing.

Pepper and Salt continued to lick his fur, and Lin Zimao could only sigh.

He took out his communicator to see if anyone was looking for him, but he didn't expect the number of messages in the group to exceed four digits. It had only been less than an hour since he returned home from school. Could anything else have happened during this period

He first looked at the small group messages of Wang Yi, Su Ran and several other top students. All the chat contents revolved around Lin Zimao. He was one of the focuses of attention, and there were also posts that attracted them even more.

The five of them were so indignant chatting in the group that they were almost ready to go out and tear the troublemakers apart.

Lin Zimao followed the video mentioned in the chat history and found that they were angry about the fight he had tonight.

It turned out that someone had filmed the fight between his friend sent by Ren Siran and posted it on the forum. He also dug out their identities and guessed the truth almost exactly.

Now everyone was discussing this matter, and Ren Siran and Chu Liming were on the hot search list on the forum.

But they had no evidence to prove that it was Ren Siran who sent Chu Liming to stop Lin Zimao. For some reason, Chu Liming took the blame for beating Lin Zimao, saying that he was not very familiar with Ren Siran, but seeing that Lin Zimao had been too high-profile recently and had repeatedly defeated the freshmen of their combat department, he came up with a way to spar with him when he saw that he was not doing well. He privately investigated and found out that Lin Zimao usually went through the grove and was waiting for him there on purpose.

Chu Liming picked Ren Siran out easily, it was all just a coincidence.

The person who filmed the video was far away and couldn't hear clearly what they said to each other. Chu Liming's reply on the forum seemed flawless, but it was full of flaws. The most important one was that there was no relevant evidence with Ren Siran.

Many people knew that this sophomore who ranked first in combat department didn't pay much attention to the forum. He had always been obsessed with mecha battles and fighting with real mechas. How could he be interested in Lin Zimao who just participated in the simulation cabin competition? It didn't make sense at all.

Who told him that Lin Zimao would walk through the woods on his way to the competition venue, and was sure that he would show up at that time? In other words, if someone is watched every day, he must be a pervert. Chu Liming is really a pervert.

Chu Liming's bullying of freshmen had only been going on for more than an hour when it became a hot topic. Freshmen had already gone to the student affairs office to complain about him. A sophomore from the Combat Department was actually blatantly bullying freshmen from other departments. If the school didn't deal with him severely, these freshmen from other departments would definitely unite and protest at the door of the principal's office! Or they could complain to the College Student Protection Association!

In short, Chu Liming is too scary! If he wasn't facing Lin Zimao, who is not good at fighting, or other students who are not so good at fighting, would he be lying in the ICU now!

Lin Zimao was really grateful to the two lovers for taking the time to shoot this video. Although their motivation was a bit gossipy, at least they helped him.

It’s a pity that Chu Liming attracted the attention, but nothing was revealed about Ren Siran behind him.

Lin Zimao replied to the private messages from Wang Yi and others one by one, and during this time he also saw the concerned messages from Ji Chen.

Lin Zimao could only regretfully say that he was unable to have supper with him. He was doing fine now and had recovered in the medical cabin, so there was no major problem.

Ji Chen was busy scolding Chu Liming in the forum, asking him to apologize to Lin Zimao. The more he scolded, the angrier he became. It was so timely that Lin Zimao replied to him at this time, and the situation was very good.

"Hey, my Xiao Mei replied to me!" He excitedly reported the progress of his relationship to Jiang Xuan who was sitting opposite him.

"Xiao Mei?" Jiang Xuan looked at his friend coldly, "Does your family agree with you calling her that?"

Ji Chen seemed to have come to his senses and said, "That makes sense. I'll change it and call him Linzi. The girls in my class all call him that. They say Linzi is very cute, sweet and wild! It can be sweet or salty!"

Jiang Xuan: “…” It’s better not to refute.

Ji Chen was already used to not getting a response from his friends when he spoke, so he continued to talk to himself, just as if sharing with Jiang Xuan.

"The guys in the Zhantou Department need to be taught a lesson. They are always bullying in school. They think they are superior because they can drive real mechas and go into space, as if the school is run by their department. It's really funny. Let's see how they end up this time. I wonder if the school can teach them a lesson this time."

"It should be possible." Jiang Xuan suddenly replied.

Ji Chen's mood was better now. His good friend actually responded to his gossip, which showed that he was paying attention to this matter.

As we were talking, the topic came back.

"Do you think there is really no hope for me, Lin Cub?"

"Be normal." Jiang Xuan didn't want Ji Chen to call him Linzi all the time. This word was too intimate and he couldn't stand it. "Call him by his full name."

"Okay, your family is not as fashionable as my grandfather." Ji Chen mocked him. His friend stared at him coldly and said, "Next week is Cheng Chen's birthday. What gift are you going to give him this year?"

Jiang Xuan said: "Is this what you mean by urgent?"

Ji Chen shrugged: "Yeah, I haven't bought a gift yet. Isn't this just a reminder to you that Cheng Chen's birthday is not important to you?"

Jiang Xuan said without much interest, "Oh, it doesn't matter. Just pick a gift for me. It should be something about the same price as yours. It should be ordinary and not memorable."

Ji Chen suddenly felt that he had misunderstood Jiang Xuan's request: "Huh? You don't want to buy it yourself? Did you make those requests just now?"

Jiang Xuan asked him: "Are you interested?"

The two were now in a cafe. There was a band singing a love song on the stage in the middle, and the girl was singing softly.

Ji Chen shook his head: "No, I didn't ask you out for a gift. I heard from Cheng Chen that you two had a fight. He has been unhappy recently and has been chatting with me every day. Can't you comfort him yourself?"

Jiang Xuan stared at him seriously: "Ji Chen, what illusion makes you think I should go and coax Cheng Chen?"

Ji Chen: "Uh, didn't you have a fight?"

Jiang Xuan: "Who told you that?"

Ji Chen: "Cheng Chen, he said you were angry that he came to your place without permission, and asked me to speak for him. He just cared about you." He was a little curious, "Why aren't you together yet?"

Jiang Xuan couldn't help but tell him the truth: "It's impossible for us to be together."

Ji Chen almost thought he had heard it wrong: "Doesn't he like you very much? And every time you go out to play, you never refuse when everyone jokes with you."

Jiang Xuan then asked him back, "Let me ask you, when did I not refuse someone in high school? Didn't I tell you not to match people up casually?"

After one year of college, when he and Cheng Chen went to separate schools, he began to hear less teasing.

Ji Chen was stunned by Jiang Xuan's question, and then he slowly began to recall.

Cheng Chen liked following Jiang Xuan around since middle school. After entering high school, he grew up and became cuter because he especially liked to get close to Jiang Xuan. The older brothers started to pair him and Jiang Xuan together. At first, it was just a joke and no one took it seriously. But Jiang Xuan did feel disgusted when they were joking and emphasized many times that they were not in that kind of relationship.

I don't know when Jiang Xuan stopped explaining, but they still joked around and mistakenly thought that the two were together. In fact, Jiang Xuan didn't seem to be too intimate with Cheng Chen from beginning to end. Except for the usual gatherings, there was no time for Jiang Xuan and Cheng Chen to be alone together.

Ji Chen asked in a low voice: "Do you really not like him at all?"

Jiang Xuan stirred the juice in the glass: "Actually, I don't quite understand why you keep pairing him and me together all day long. My attitude has been very clear from the beginning to the end. I don't like him and I don't want to be with him."

Ji Chen: "Did we joke too much?"

Jiang Xuan: "Maybe you think it will become true if you say it too much, but I really don't want to be with Cheng Chen." Ji Chen wanted to explain, but Jiang Xuan interrupted him, "Now we are in the same school, it is inevitable that we will look up and down. I don't want any more rumors about him. Last time he ran to where I live to block me, I think this is very bad. In the past, we were friends, and he was not too old, so he asked me to take care of him, and I did it reluctantly. In order to avoid such a thing from happening again in the future, please stop making such meaningless jokes."

Ji Chen slapped his mouth lightly, realizing the seriousness of the situation. If Jiang Xuan hadn't been able to bear it, he wouldn't have brought it up. This time, it might have really touched his bottom line.

He apologized repeatedly: "Brother, I was wrong. I won't say it again next time! I really didn't know. I thought you were together."

Jiang Xuan scolded him: "Not only is he blind, he's also stupid."

After Ji Chen sorted out the details, it turned out that Jiang Xuan really didn't treat Cheng Chen differently. It seemed that they were really overthinking it. In addition, Cheng Chen always deliberately brought up the topic of Jiang Xuan, which always made them feel that they had a good relationship.

For a while, Ji Chen's impression of Cheng Chen didn't seem so good. Every time he said that he loved Jiang Xuan, it sounded like the truth, and he exaggerated it.

The most important thing is that they did not take the initiative to ask Jiang Xuan to verify anything.

Apart from the mecha design, Ji Chen rarely had Jiang Xuan talk to him about something in such depth, and he listened very carefully.

He asked Jiang Xuan: "So, you are not going to Cheng Chen's birthday party this time, right?"

Jiang Xuan said without hesitation: "Well, I won't go."

Ji Chen: "I'll tell Cheng Chen for you that half of the misunderstanding was caused by us."

Jiang Xuan: "That's good to know."

Ji Chen: "But he may not listen to what I say."

Jiang Xuan: "So, I wasn't close to him to begin with."

Jiang Xuan was about to leave when Ji Chen suddenly noticed something hairy on Jiang Xuan's black shirt: "Is there cat hair on you?"

Jiang Xuan calmly slapped it away: "You are mistaken, it is catkins."

Ji Chen: “…” Do you think I’m blind

He asked tentatively: "Do you have someone you like?" Otherwise, there must be something wrong if he took so much trouble to explain to him today.

Jiang Xuan hesitated for a moment and denied, "No."

In a 24-hour convenience store not far away, Chu Liming and Ren Siran met in the dining area.

After Chu Liming beat Lin Zimao, Ren Siran was defeated by Lin Zimao and fainted. He was suppressed for a while, which was not so obvious.

Chu Liming hasn't seen a doctor to get his teeth fixed yet, and now his voice is leaking out when he speaks. He doesn't have time to buy a mask, so he uses his hand to cover his mouth when speaking.

He wanted to strangle Ren Siran to death: "Ren Siran, why did you lie to me? Lin Zimao is not a peeping Tom at all. Now I am killed by you and I am taking the blame for you! What is going on?"

Before coming out, Ren Siran had already thought of a countermeasure: "Although he is not a peeping Tom, he threatens me."

Chu Liming: "What did he threaten you with?"

Ren Siran was about to cry and said, "I'm sorry, Liming, I shouldn't have lied to you. Actually, the truth is, last time during the rescue, I said something, I was afraid of death, I didn't dare to save you, and he used this to threaten me, saying that if I didn't give him money, he would expose this."

Chu Liming was obviously a little unconvinced: "He said what he said, but there is no evidence, what can he prove."

Ren Siran said, "But, but I finally gained some fame, and I want to plan for the future. I don't want to give up everything I have worked so hard to get so soon. Do you think I am stupid?"

Chu Liming comforted Ren Siran in a leaky voice. He thought about it and felt that it was very likely: "I hit you. It's okay. I will take care of this matter first. You don't have to worry about it for the time being."

Ren Siran was secretly delighted. He wished Chu Liming would take the blame for him. In two days he would be able to get rid of the crime completely.

Chu Liming didn't know that he was being used by Ren Siran again.

No, it won't be long before he knows all the truth.

It was Monday morning at nine o'clock, the day after the fight.

A recording of a conversation was reposted on the school forum, the source of the audio being a contract worker at the repair shop who did not want to reveal his name.

Ren Siran: "A1800 is a heavy armored vehicle. If we rush in rashly, we will be crushed into pieces. I don't want to die."

Lin Zimao: "Rescue! You dare not let me come? Time is limited, they are about to fall!"

Cry for help: "a1800 help! a1800 help!"

Ren Siran: "How can I save you? I told you I don't want to die. You don't know how to save me! Don't press the buttons randomly!"

Lin Zimao: "How can a coward like you be a mecha warrior? If you don't save me, I will!"

Ren Siran: “You dare!”

Lin Zimao: "You are afraid of death, but I am not. I don't want to see others die."

Lin Zimao: "Locate a1800 right now..."
