The monkey was still rambling: "Speaking of which, I was really sorry for you and the class representative last time. I'm not good enough for Internet cafes. I've always wanted to invite you two to dinner, but you know Shen Cheng. He's aloof. I dare not ask, you say..."
Jian Shiwu put away the test paper abruptly, he looked at the monkey, his momentum changed: "Let's go."
The monkey stared wide-eyed: "Where are you going?"
"It's time for you to repay your favor!"
"..."
At night, the sky of Cangyun City is dotted with stars. In this era, wireless networks are not popular, and the TV at home relies on a large pot to watch news broadcasts. There are many people on the street, and large supermarkets will have large shadow cloths in front of them. People bring their own small benches, or just stand in front of the supermarket and watch a movie. The Zixia fairy in it is smart and beautiful.
At nine o'clock in the evening, Shen Cheng came out of the restaurant and walked home.
There are few people in the small alley at night, and the sound of crickets can be heard from time to time. He is walking on the road with a black backpack on his back, walking calmly. On both sides of the path, there are several men in black leather jackets smoking cigarettes , waiting with an unkind expression.
Shen Cheng took a few glances lightly and continued walking forward.
The leading middle-aged man said, "You are Gao Can's son, right?"
Shen Cheng stopped in his tracks, looked up at them, the five tall middle-aged men were taller than the boy, and much stronger than him, but Shen Cheng just stood there calmly, without even a hint of fear. Didn't give them a look.
"Tsk, not bad."
The middle-aged man had a cigarette in his mouth. He walked in slowly and raised his eyebrows: "Do you know why we are looking for you?"
A few men at the side also gathered around and started talking in one go:
"Your mother owes us money, do you know?"
"She said you were rich."
"Little brother, we don't want to embarrass you either, just take out the money and we'll leave."
Shen Cheng said softly, "I have no money."
The leading middle-aged man scolded angrily: "Stop talking nonsense, where did your tuition come from without money?"
Shen Cheng didn't speak, turned his head and walked towards the other side. The others seemed to have sensed his intentions and formed a surrounding circle. Everyone was aggressive, and they had a posture that couldn't be better today:
"Little brother, if you don't take the money, we won't be polite."
"Is it in the bag?"
"Bring me to see..."
Someone reached out to grab Shen Cheng's bag, Shen Cheng's dark eyes focused on the hand stretched over his shoulder, and the ready-to-stretch fist slowly tightened. Anyone who knew a little bit could see that Shen Cheng was on the defensive. The posture is very professional, if the other party really reaches out so unsuspectingly, he will definitely be hit, and at that critical moment——
"class president!"
A shout came from the end of the path.
Xiaopang was running like a gust of wind with his schoolbag on his back. He rushed over and slammed straight into the man who stretched out his hand towards Shen Cheng. He knocked people away like a firecracker relying on his weight and speed, including the smoking man in the back. The eldest brother also never expected that he would be thrown to the ground by one of the two.
"Oops..."
The scene was chaotic, and no one knew where this chubby came from.
Jian Shiwu got up from the ground, turned her head and spoke quickly to Shen Cheng: "I have already called the police, and the police car has already arrived, don't be afraid of them!"
The leading elder brother cursed angrily: "Who is it, little bastard, believe me or not... ah!"
Jian Shiwu kept hitting the schoolbag in his arms on his face, super fiercely: "Say more, talk again..."
Just as it was driving, there was a faint sound of a police car not far away. In the night, there were traffic lights flashing under the shadow of trees not far away. Slowly, the sound of a police car approached.
The other men were also a little panicked: "Second Uncle, it really sounds like a police car."
The leader was only entrusted by others, and he didn't really want to get into the situation. He staggered up and looked at Jian Shiwu with hatred, as if he was puzzled and wanted to come over and slap the child, but Shen Cheng compared his reaction. Quickly, he stretched out his hand and pulled Xiaopang to his side, avoiding the slap of the leading man.
Jian Shiwu bumped into Shen Cheng's arms and hugged his waist.
The sound of a group of men yelling and running away is heard, and Shen Cheng stretches out his hand to hear the faint scent of soap locust. It smells fresh and pleasant, with the hormones unique to teenagers. The breath is the shackles of memory, as if it took him back to the past years. At that time, Shen Cheng hadn't become what he was later, and he was just a carefree playboy.
Just as he was thinking, Shen Cheng's voice came from above his head: "I will be the one who won't let go."
. . ! !
Jian Shiwu took two steps back in embarrassment. Because he was too excited, he tripped over the steps on the ground behind and almost lost his balance. Fortunately, there was a streetlight nearby to lean on to save him. He patted his chest in fear and complained. She glanced at Shen Cheng strangely: "You give me a hand anyway?"
Shen Cheng bent down and picked up the schoolbag on the ground: "Why are you here?"
Jian Shiwu took the schoolbag: "I came with the monkey."
A monkey not far away ran over panting, holding an electric flash stick in his hand, flashing red and blue in the night, and said, "Are you all right?"
Shen Cheng looked at the mobile phone in Monkey's hand, the player inside was the source of the sound of the police car just now.
Jian Shiwu smiled foolishly: "With me around, how can anything happen."
The monkey gasped and leaned against the street lamp, losing its strength: "Really, I was scared to death, you scared me to death, you know, if I knew I was doing this, I wouldn't dare to kill me."
Shen Cheng frowned slightly, and he looked at Jian Shiwu: "How do you two know I'm here?"
"Wow, we saved you just now, so it's fine if you don't feel grateful, why did the interrogation start?" Jian Shiwu put his arms around his schoolbag and jokingly enlivened the atmosphere: "We just happened to pass by to deliver justice."
The monkey also echoed: "If it weren't for us, you would be in danger now."
The pale light of the street lamps fell, Shen Cheng's back was stretched very long, his usual cold face softened for a moment, but soon it was the same dead face that had remained unchanged for thousands of years, stern and full of alienation, he was cold Voice: "So you don't even have a brain?"
Both Jian Shiwu and the monkey were stunned.
"It's a fluke that they believed it today, what if they don't believe it?" This is the first time that Shen Cheng is no longer indifferent to them but with aggressive anger: "Have you thought about how serious the consequences will be?"
Shen Cheng, who was out of control and sullen, seemed to regain his composure for just a moment. He put his schoolbag on his back and said in a deep voice, "I will pay back the favors I owe you."
After speaking, Shen Cheng turned around and walked into the alley, which was the way home.
Jian Shiwu was the first to react: "They may still be waiting ahead, this road is very dangerous now, you..."
Shen Cheng's footsteps stopped, and Jian Shiwu's unfinished words were inexplicably stuck.
quite a while
Shen Cheng turned his head, the ground he was standing on was not illuminated by the light of the street lamp, Jian Shiwu stood in the light with the monkey, he stood there alone, with the endless night behind him as if he could swallow people with his mouth wide open, he said: "Knowing the danger, why don't you leave quickly?"
Jane Shiwu was dumbfounded.
The monkey said, "What are you going to do after we leave, you can't go back..."
Shen Cheng stood in the half-darkness, with a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth: "Then where can I go back?"
The two good students under the streetlights looked at each other, and they all fell silent. For them, the front is indeed dangerous, dilapidated, and simple, and they are usually unwilling to take a step. No one knows whether that group of people will make a comeback. What is waiting ahead, but for Shen Cheng, it is the way home. They have choices, but Shen Cheng has no choice.
For a moment, Jian Shiwu understood Shen Cheng's thoughts, he was not really ruthless, on the contrary, he was worried that those people would hurt himself and the monkey, and he couldn't go with him, because it would hurt them.
what to do
Is it really necessary to drop Shen and become a person
There was a faint pain in the head again, and Jian Shiwu was so anxious that his heart was burning.
"drop"
Car lights flashed in the distance, a car stopped near them, and Zhen Meili got out of the car.
The woman came over when she saw her son: "Jane Shiwu!"
Jian Shiwu's whole body trembled: "Mom?"
"Sent a location message that I don't know so-called and asked me to come here to pick you up. People don't know where they went. What time is it? You don't want to live, you..."
Zhen Meili stopped in the middle of scolding when she saw Shen Cheng's face, some aggressive women actually stood there in a daze, unable to say a word.
Jian Shiwu was suspicious: "Mom?"
Zhen Meili: "This... this is?"
"Shen Cheng." Monkey introduced: "This is the math class representative of our class, the oldest one, auntie."
Shen Cheng, who was fierce to the two of them, was very respectful when facing the elders. Shen Cheng nodded slightly and bent slightly: "Hello."
The light was dim, and the moment the young man bent over, his side face was like jade. At that moment, it seemed to overlap with the peerless face in Zhen Meili's memory. It was only after standing up straight that he came back to his senses.
so similar
How come it looks like this
It's rare for her to lose her composure, so she came back to her senses at this moment, not to mention a positive attitude: "Shen Cheng, right? Auntie remembers you. Did you still teach our family the elementary school questions? You're such a good boy. I've always wanted to get to know you." , Coincidentally, there are ribs stewed at home, can you and the monkey come to play?"
At this moment, Jian Shiwu felt that her mother was really amazing.
Shen Cheng said, "No, thank you..."
Jian Shiwu and the monkey looked at each other, and the two understood each other's thoughts.
The monkey rushed over and hugged Shen Cheng first, and said, "You are welcome, Auntie is very skilled, come on, come on! Auntie, I haven't been to play at home for a long time, can I sleep at your place today?"
Jian Shiwu hesitated for a moment, but when he thought of the vicious group of people just now, and the ending of Shen Cheng being excluded at school in his previous life, he gritted his teeth and rushed over to hold Shen Cheng: "Let's go, oh, I'm already hungry, Let me tell you that the braised pork ribs made by my mother are delicious, and you will definitely like them."
Maybe, he should really stay away from Shen Cheng, but he came, and he saved Shen Cheng from those people. Not very smart little cannon fodder, never know what is right.
But today, but at this moment, he thought, he has to pull himself together, no matter what the outcome is.
