Jiang's father has been a little busy recently, and has been following up on the new projects in the development zone.
Today, the provincial inspection team was sent away, and he asked the project leader to arrange rectification for the problems found in the inspection, how to pass the hard hat to the other party, and left the construction site with the secretary.
The driver was already waiting outside, he got in the car, took out his cell phone to check, and found a missed call.
The caller was Vice Principal Yang from City High School. It was this Vice Principal who arranged for Jiang Li to re-study at City High School. He has a good relationship with Jiang's father.
Jiang's father thought that Jiang Li had already started school for a month, and he had been busy recently, and he didn't have any extra time to ask about Jiang Li's study status. When he saw the phone call, he couldn't help but blame himself for being unqualified as a father.
He ordered the driver to drive, and then called Vice President Yang back. After the other party connected, he smiled and said, "Vice President Yang, I was busy and didn't answer the call just now, no wonder."
"Don't dare to dare, Director Jiang is a busy person, I know that." Vice President Yang didn't take it seriously at all, and smiled heartily on the other end of the phone, "It's nothing serious, the main thing is to call you Congratulations."
Father Jiang smiled and asked, "Where does joy come from?"
"It seems that you don't know, Jiang Li hasn't told you yet, right?" Vice Principal Yang said, "Jiang Li won the first place in the monthly exam this time, and it's almost a perfect score!"
Father Jiang thought he heard it wrong: "What are you talking about?"
Vice-principal Yang repeated it, pretending to be angry and said: "Such an outstanding child, you said that his grades were poor, let us forgive you, isn't it too modest?"
"No..." Father Jiang still didn't believe it, and even ordered the driver to pull the car over to the side of the road, and asked again, "You said my son got the first place in the exam? First in grade?!"
"That's right! Not only the first place, but only 1.5 points deducted for all subjects!" Vice President Yang heard the excitement in his voice, and said cheerfully, "No, I will call you as soon as the results come out today. The Annunciation has come."
My son won the first place in the whole grade in the monthly exam, and he is still close to full marks in all subjects.
Father Jiang's expression was a little dazed, he didn't even pay attention to what Vice Principal Yang said, he answered the other party with a few absent-minded words, and hung up the phone.
He is Jiang Li's only son, who has been spoiled by the sky since he was a child, and he has been raised to be free and unmotivated.
This time when his son ran away from home and came back, Jiang’s father thought that if he didn’t want to learn, he wouldn’t want to learn. When he was still alive, he could always protect him and continue to live a carefree life. The assets are enough for him to squander at will.
So this time his son went to the city to repeat his studies, and he didn't take it seriously when he said before that he would take the Tsinghua University exam. He only thought that his son was making himself and his wife happy, until he just received the news that his son was the first in the monthly exam. Afterwards, he discovered that this did not seem to be the case.
"Jiang Dong, do you need to go home now?"
The secretary's voice came from the front, pulling Father Jiang's thoughts back.
Jiang's father told him to wait, flipping through the mobile phone number excitedly in his hand, wanting to call Jiang Li, but after dialing the phone, he realized that Jiang Li must still be in class at this moment, so he hung up the phone again, and transferred to Jiang Li. And called his wife at home.
Mother Jiang got up from the sofa excitedly when she heard the news that Jiang Li got the first place in the grade, and asked Father Jiang several times whether the news was true or not. After getting the confirmation, she was overjoyed.
The son got the first place in the exam, so he should be rewarded naturally. The two discussed it and decided to go to the mall to buy some gifts for the son.
After the two made an appointment, Jiang's father hung up the phone and told the driver: "Go to the nearby shopping mall.".
"Okay, Jiang Dong." The driver agreed, started the car and headed to the nearest shopping mall.
When they arrived at the shopping mall, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother met and started shopping.
After strolling around the mall for a few times, the two bought watches, clothes, and shoes for Jiang Li, and finally Jiang's father went to buy him the latest game console.
The two spent hundreds of thousands of dollars just to buy rewards for Jiang Li, and the secretary followed them with bags full of them.
After coming out of the shopping mall, it was still early for Jiang Li to leave school, so Jiang's mother decided to put the things in Jiang Li's house next to the school, and wait for Jiang Li to finish class before going to pick him up for dinner to celebrate.
The house was arranged by Jiang's father, and Jiang's mother also has a key in her hand, so that she can come over occasionally to see if there is any shortage in her son and make up for it in time. But because Shigao is far away from home, Jiang Li usually goes back on weekends, so this is their first time here.
When the car arrived downstairs in the community, Jiang's father, Jiang's mother and the secretary went upstairs. After the secretary put down the things, he left first.
It was probably because Jiang Li closed the doors and windows when he went out, and the air in the house was a little stuffy. Jiang's mother went to open the glass window of the balcony to let in the air, and the cool wind from outside came in. After the air circulated, it made people feel much more comfortable.
After opening the window, she went back to the living room and took the newly bought clothes for Jiang Li to his bedroom, planning to hang them up for him.
Jiang's father was not idle, so he followed into the bedroom to help, but when Jiang's mother opened the closet, she was stunned for a moment.
"What's wrong?" Father Jiang asked.
"Did Xiaoli only bring these few clothes?" Mother Jiang reached out to pick out the clothes in the closet, and there were only two short-sleeved and two sweatpants.
After T City entered October, the weather turned cold. Jiang's mother still remembered that Jiang Li brought a few more sets of clothes when she went home last week. Why are there only these few? And she didn't see any clothes hanging on the balcony just now.
"Probably sent to the laundry." Father Jiang said indifferently, took out the newly bought clothes from the paper bag, and handed them to Mother Jiang to hang them up.
Jiang's mother felt that what he said made sense, so she didn't pay much attention to it and started to hang up the clothes.
The two bought a lot of clothes for Jiang Li, including more than a dozen sweaters and overcoats. After hanging up the clothes, Jiang's mother bent down to pack the paper bags all over the floor, her gaze fell on Jiang Li's bed inadvertently, and she paused again.
The bed was neatly made, the quilt was folded and put aside, even the sheets were very neat.
It's normal to make the bed after waking up, but Jiang's mother remembered that Jiang Li didn't have obsessive-compulsive disorder, so she wouldn't even smooth out the wrinkles on the bed sheet, and the bed was so neat that it didn't look like someone had slept in it.
For some reason, she felt a strange feeling in her heart, and she ignored what she was going to do for a while.
Father Jiang quickly picked up the paper bags on the ground, stacked them together and put them away, then asked her, "Why are you in a daze?"
Mother Jiang came back to her senses, suppressed the doubts in her heart, and shook her head.
When the two left the bedroom, Mother Jiang took another look into the room at the door, and found that not only the bed, but the whole bedroom was neatly arranged, even the curtains were tightly drawn.
Mother Jiang always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell. She frowned, closed the door, and then went to put the newly bought shoes in the shoe cabinet. After tidying up, she got up and washed her hands.
There was a sink outside the bathroom. Mother Jiang walked over and was about to wash her hands, but the strangeness in the bedroom just now made her pay more attention. She reached out and touched the surrounding of the sink, and found that there was no trace of water stains on it.
Jiang Li's mouthwash cup and toothbrush are placed on the shelf above the sink, which proves that he usually brushes his teeth here, but the sink and the area around the table are dry.
If it was used in the morning, the water droplets splashed around, and it would not dry so quickly without ventilation.
Jiang's mother picked up Jiang Li's mouthwash cup and looked at it, and found that the cup was indeed dry, and there was no wetness at the bottom of the cup!
There was no clothes in the closet, the sheets were clean and tidy, and the cup and toothbrush hadn't been used in the morning, all these signs showed that Jiang Li didn't live here at all!
Thinking of this, Jiang's mother was taken aback for a moment, she really didn't understand what was going on
In desperation, she forgot to wash her hands, walked quickly to the living room, and told Father Jiang about the situation.
Father Jiang was stunned for a moment when he heard the words: "No way? Are you being overwhelmed?"
"Follow me!" Mother Jiang dragged him to the sink, pointed out to him the problems she had just discovered, and then dragged him to Jiang Li's bedroom, asking him to take a good look at the bedroom The situation here.
After looking around, Jiang's father's face gradually became heavy. He turned and went to the bathroom in the bedroom, and found that the floor and towels inside were also dry, which proved that no one was using it.
This situation was unexpected for both of them. They happily came to deliver things to their son, but found that their son didn't live here at all.
Mother Jiang was a little confused, grabbed Father Jiang and said, "Where do you think he doesn't live here? School? Or did he go back to the previous rental house? What is he doing back?!"
Father Jiang helped her sit down by the bed, patted her on the back, and comforted her in a gentle voice: "Don't be nervous, isn't Xiaoli coming back every week? That proves that there is nothing wrong with him. As for why he didn't live here …”
He paused, and said with some uncertainty: "Could it be that he's not used to it?"
"Impossible." Jiang's mother said firmly, "My son was spoiled and spoiled since he was a child, and he is used to living in that small house. The location here extends in all directions, the lighting is good, and the key point is close to his school. How could he not get used to it? Unless he... "
The rest of the words came to an abrupt end, she and Father Jiang looked at each other, and said with hesitation: "Could it be that the son ran away from home again?"
Jiang's father frowned: "Probably not. It's been a good time, so he ran away from home? There must be some reason. I'll ask him when school is over at noon."
"The reason..." Jiang's mother thought about these two words, and a possibility suddenly flashed in her mind. Remembering the reason why her son ran away from home, she stood up suddenly, "Is this bastard going to be with someone? Afraid of us I knew it, so I moved out secretly!"
When Jiang's father heard this, he also thought of his son's sexual orientation, and immediately felt that it was very possible, so he immediately said, "I'll go find him!"
"Wait!" Jiang's mother stopped him, "Old Jiang, don't be impulsive, and I'll be in a hurry if you scold the child away again!"
Father Jiang was a little dumbfounded: "I'm not going to scold him, I have to figure things out, right?"
Mother Jiang pondered for a while, and said, "Don't ask for now, lest he get angry again, let's find a way to see who he's been with recently."
"Okay." Father Jiang nodded, "Then do you want to eat this meal?"
"... Let's eat after Xiaoli comes home on weekends." Mother Jiang rubbed her brows, sat on the side of the bed, and sighed, "Let me relax first."
Jiang's father also sat down. If it was true as his wife said, that his son really did not tell them which man he was with, and that he probably already lived with him, then he also needed to relax.
…
Jiang Li, who was in class at this time, had no idea what his parents were thinking, because he got the first place in the exam, and as soon as he entered the classroom today, he felt the hot eyes of the people in the class.
During the recess, the classmate who had been at the same table with him for a month couldn't help asking him: "Jiang Li, your grades are so good, why do you have to repeat the exam?! You are too cruel to us!"
Jiang Li was playing with the pencil in his hand, propped one hand on the desk, heard his words, and said in a leisurely tone: "I didn't pass the exam before."
"Where do you want to take the exam?" asked the deskmate.
Stopping the movement in his hands, Jiang Li held the pen body in the palm of his hand, and spit out two words: "Qingda University."
"Tsinghua University? Awesome." The tablemate looked at him adoringly, and said enviously, "Your grades are definitely no problem, but the momentum of B University and University of Science and Technology has also been very strong in recent years, and the scholarship is super high , haven't you considered it?"
"No." Jiang Li said, "I only think about Tsinghua University."
"why?"
Jiang Li smiled brightly: "Because it is of great significance to me."
After school at noon, Jiang Li said goodbye to his deskmate, picked up his schoolbag and left the classroom.
It's October, and the temperature suddenly turns cold. Jiang Li has already put on a woolen sweater under his school uniform, which is the same style that he and Lu Jinghe bought together last time.
After leaving the school gate, he immediately saw Lu Jinghe waiting on the side of the road.
Lu Jinghe was wearing a long windbreaker, and the tailored clothes completely set off his tall figure. He stood with one hand in his pocket under the ginkgo tree by the side of the road. His silhouette was a landscape, which attracted passers-by to look back frequently.
These days, the two of them are like ordinary couples, getting up together during the day and sleeping together in the embrace at night, Lu Jinghe will come to pick Jiang Li up after class at noon and night, and then walk back together.
Seeing his lover's figure, Jiang Li raised a smile and walked over quickly. When he was approaching, Lu Jinghe also happened to turn around and look over.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Jiang Li walked in front of him.
"Just arrived." Lu Jinghe smiled, and the two walked back together.
The two walked and chatted, walking back along the ginkgo tree all the way, the school was only ten minutes' walk from the residence.
The elevator stopped on the eighth floor. As soon as the door opened, the two came out. Jiang Li said to Lu Jinghe, "By the way, our monthly exam results came out today. Guess what place I got?"
Lu Jinghe took out the key from his pocket, and said without thinking, "Number one?"
"Guess right." Jiang Li clicked his tongue in his mouth, and asked as if asking for credit, "Then what reward do I have?"
Lu Jinghe was stuffing the key into the keyhole, when he heard him say this, he turned around and said, "I asked Qi Rui to transfer the live broadcast platform to your name, he is already going through the formalities, give him a copy of your ID."
Jiang Li was taken aback when he heard that, he was surprised enough that Lu Jinghe bought the live streaming platform last time, but now he wants to directly transfer the platform to his own name.
After being stunned for a while, Jiang Li smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, do you know how much this platform is worth? Just give it to me casually."
Whether the platform is worth money or not Lu Jinghe didn't care, he looked at Jiang Li and said seriously: "It's worth less than you."
This sentence was as sweet as cotton candy, Jiang Li stepped forward, grabbed his collar with both hands, and kissed his lips as soon as he raised his head.
This floor belongs to them, and he doesn't have to worry about anyone coming, he can kiss if he wants to.
As soon as he kissed him, Lu Jinghe wrapped his arms around his waist and kissed him.
At the same time, another door at the end of the corridor suddenly opened, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother came out, and saw the two kissing figures inadvertently.
The handbag in Jiang's mother's hand fell to the ground and made a "click", which alarmed the two people who were kissing.
Hearing the sound, Jiang Li and Lu Jinghe quickly separated, and when they turned around, they saw the stunned Jiang's parents behind them.
Jiang Li: "..."
... This life has really stepped on shit.
