Rong Si heard the hurried footsteps behind him and turned back immediately. Originally sipped into a straight line, it has begun to rise, ready to greet the little girl behind with a smile. But the curvature of the corners of the mouth stopped at the curvature just raised, and then returned to a straight line again. The expression on his entire face turned cold.
His eyes turned deep, and he looked at Li Erqin's gauze-wrapped arms and calves.
And Li Erqin had long forgotten about his injuries, he ran wildly regardless of his image, and stopped in front of Rong Si.
In the silent night, a red lacquered car roared past Rongzi calmly, pulling a sharp trace on the road that was already lit by the orange lights.
Rong Si lowered his eyes and saw Li Erqin standing in front of him with his small chin raised and smiling at him, his bright eyes were full of smiles.
He glanced at Li Erqin's injuries lightly, and looked at her again: "Have you disturbed your rest?"
Li Erqin shook his head again and again: "No! I haven't rested yet."
He looked at the place where the bandages were tied again: "Is it serious?"
"Just a little bit of skin." Li Erqin smirked: "Why are you here?"
"Zi Ge sent me a message."
Li Erqin knew: "When will the game end? Is it alright?"
Rong Si was silent.
Li Erqin gradually became uneasy under his eyes.
"Does it hurt?" he asked.
The smile on Li Erqin's face slowly changed from bright to warm. The person in front of her, her boyfriend, expressed his concern so directly. While letting her know that she was cared for, she felt the sense of security she had been looking for a few days ago.
Rong Si cared about himself.
very concerned about themselves.
When people are quiet at night, hypocrisy always runs faster than rationality. Li Erqin wanted to drive away his urge to cry, so he deliberately made a face: "It hurts!"
"Is it serious?" Rong Si asked again.
"It's really just a skin injury." Li Erqin emphasized.
Rong Si sighed and said softly, "Are you afraid?"
The tears that had been hiding in the bottom of my eyes finally fell, and when I spoke again, my voice was shaking: "I'm afraid..."
The next second, he fell into a warm embrace.
Li Erqin buried his face in Rong Si's arms and cried out in a muffled voice.
In fact, I have never dared to recall the pictures of the afternoon, those palms that were beaten down wildly, sharp fingernails, and the tearing that felt like I used all my strength.
She held back her strength and told herself not to cry, but she didn't dare to think about it after the incident. It seems that as long as you don't think about it, it will seem relatively indifferent. But this thing, this feeling, it was there, like the darkness that gradually filled the thorns, surrounding her layer by layer.
Li Erqin didn't know how long he had been crying, so long that his father didn't feel relieved to find it.
Li Zhengwen frowned and watched his daughter cry while hiding in the boy's arms, but he was relieved for some reason. After a while, he interrupted: "Er lazy."
The boy who was holding his daughter did not push her away, his eyes slowly looked over, and then he patted Li Erqin on the back and gently pulled her out of his arms.
Li Erqin wiped his tears and looked back to see Li Zhengwen, blushing: "Dad."
Li Zhengwen stood on the spot: "Bring your classmates to talk at home."
Li Erqin turned around and asked Rong Si.
Rong Si has let go of her, maintaining a distance that makes Li Zhengwen feel very comfortable: "Okay."
Li's living room.
Rong Si sat upright on the sofa with a glass of ice water in front of him. He calmly accepted Li Zhengwen while blowing the tea leaves and looked at him repeatedly from the corner of his eye.
Li Zhengwen observed for a while, and stood up with a cup in his hand: "If you have something to say, it's getting late. I'll ask the driver to take your classmates back to school after that."
Rong Si thanked him.
Li Zhengwen took one last look at Li Erqin and felt aggrieved in his heart. From knowing that Li Erqin had an accident to the present, he took various methods to coax her, but instead she comforted him as if nothing happened. But in the final analysis, I am still in my teens, and my psychological growth has not been fully formed. If such a thing is not handled properly, it will easily cause a lifetime of psychological shadows.
In the end, the father is not as good as the boyfriend. The little boy stood in front of her gently, okay, finally he was willing to cry.
Li Zhengwen left the space for the two young people and went back to the study to find his wife.
Xu Yunshu looked at him with a worried expression and asked.
Li Zhengwen waved his hand: "It's okay, at least it's vented."
Xu Yunshu breathed a sigh of relief: "Have everything been investigated clearly?"
Li Zhengwen frowned, put down the teacup, and looked serious: "Old Zhang is doing it, I'll deal with it tomorrow morning."
Xu Yunshu's distress is beyond words: "This time you are allowed to abuse your power."
When Li Zhengwen heard this, he burst out laughing: "You mothers are the best in the world for protecting the calf."
Xu Yunshu couldn't help but reddened his eyes again, his lips were trembling with anger and he couldn't say a word.
In the living room, Li Erqin asked Rong Si in a low voice, "Did my dad scare you? He's not usually that serious."
Rong Si smiled: "No."
Li Erqin pulled a corner of his pajamas and hesitated: "You know what happened in the afternoon?"
Rong Si: "I don't know."
Li Erqin pouted: "That..."
"Um?"
"I want to sit by your side."
Rong Si laughed: "Come."
The two of them sat a few centimeters apart.
Li Erqin asked again, "Aren't you going to ask me about the afternoon?"
Rong Si shook his head: "I'll know when I go back to school."
"Hmm." Li Erqin bowed his head.
"Don't think about that anymore," he said. "It won't happen again."
"Um."
"Second duty."
"Um?"
Rong Si was quiet and said, "I will protect you in the future."
＊＊＊
When Rong Si returned to the bedroom, the lights were nearly turned off. Standing at the door of the bedroom, Peng Zige looked anxiously back and forth. Seeing that Rong Si's reaction was exactly the same as Li Erqin's, he ran to him in three steps: "I'm going, you're finally back!"
The tired look on Rong Si's face could not be hidden: "Well."
"Where have you been?" Peng Zige worried: "The other contestants have already returned."
"I went to Li Erqin's house."
Peng Zige was stunned: "Did you go to her house?"
"Um."
"Why don't you wait for us..." Peng Zige felt that something was not right, and asked with wide eyes, "You and Erqin?"
Rong Si walked to the sink to wash his face: "Well."
"you?"
"Together."
Peng Zige was shocked like a goose: "When did it happen?"
"Go to the day before the game."
Peng Zige blinked unacceptably: "I don't know anything."
Rong Si didn't say anything, and went back to the cupboard at the end of his bed to rummage through things.
Peng Zige looked at him inexplicably.
Rong Si turned around for a while and asked, "Do you have anything to eat?"
Peng Zige said honestly, "Biscuits. You didn't eat?"
Rong Si nodded.
Peng Zige hurriedly gave him the biscuits and a bottle of water.
Rong Si boiled the water and asked, "What happened in the afternoon?"
"Several girls from the next class fought with Li Erqin. I heard that Li Erqin made the first move."
Rong Si prepared to eat the biscuits: "Then?"
"Then Li Erqin must not be able to beat him. The teacher felt that when the scene was on, Erqin was covered in injuries and his clothes were torn."
Peng Zige heard the sound of the mineral water bottle being crushed.
"Calm down!" Peng Zige urged quickly.
"who is it?"
Peng Zige looked embarrassed, knowing that the next words might cause Rong Si's discomfort: "The head of a girl named Shi Meng. Before that, she came to us to send you a love letter, and then asked for a mobile phone number. , were rejected by Erqin. Then something unpleasant happened to us, but it was all what Su Zi and I said, and Erqin didn't speak at all later."
Rong Si's face was indeed even more ugly.
"Then they're still spreading the news these days..." He glanced at Rong Si, "Said she and Ruan Ming were under the stairs first... bang bang bang."
Rong Si's face can no longer be described as ugly.
"Do you need me to continue?" Peng Zige asked uncertainly.
"Um."
Peng Zige swallowed his saliva: "I heard from the girls in the next class that they went to the radio studio to deliberately find fault with Erqin, and then said some unpleasant things in person, Erqin smashed Shimeng with his mobile phone, and then Fighting."
Rong Si didn't speak, and in the end he didn't eat anything.
＊＊＊
The next day, the notice about the serious disciplinary actions of the girls came down. Teacher Meng, who took the lead, was suspended for observation and faced the situation of being expelled from school. The other girls were also severely punished.
There was no punishment notice from Li Erqin, but she did not come to class either.
Rong Si passed by the bulletin board, deliberately paying attention to the list of names on the punishment list, and then passed by with a blank face.
This time the incident was too turbulent, and even the school leaders were named by the education department to criticize the school's school discipline and school spirit education. For a time, the whole school was shrouded in a serious and tense atmosphere, and some girls who were about to move because Li Erqin was not punished also temporarily quieted down.
Rong Si adhered to the school's principle of rectifying school discipline and school spirit, and rigorously arrested several students who violated the discipline. Someone noticed that the name that had appeared on the punishment notice appeared again.
A few days later, things seemed to calm down gradually, and some "old fritters" had even returned to their original state.
It's just that there was never a smile on Rong Si's face.
Peng Zige felt like he was about to suffocate, so he quietly discussed with Su Zi at lunch time: "Hey, is there a way to make this low-pressure mountain next to him reduce his air pressure a little? I'm dying!"
Su Zi already knew about Rong Si and Li Erqin from Peng Zige's mouth, and shook his head: "I don't know, wait for Erqin to save us."
"Did she say when to go back to school?"
"I don't know." Su Zi pouted, "I heard that her father didn't allow it."
Peng Zige was about to cry.
Su Zi wanted to cry too. Without Li Erqin's company, she truly understood the state Peng Zige said before—it was so lonely! This is much more sad than the failure of the confession in the first place!
Both Peng Zige and Su Zi consciously did not "disturb" Rong Si, but some people just didn't know it.
Before the evening self-study began, there was a girl named "Master Meng". The first thing she did after returning to school was to come to Rong Si's class, walked into the classroom and handed Rong Si a love letter.
Rong Si looked at her quietly.
Shi Meng folded his hair and showed the most satisfying smile he thought: "My name is Shi Meng, and I like you."
Rong Si suddenly laughed.
Shi Meng handed over his love letter: "A letter to you."
The whole class's attention was on them, and Peng Zige's eyes were already red with urgency, thinking about whether to hit the girls or not.
Rong Si stood up from his position, looked down at the light blue letter, and reached out to take it.
Shi Meng's smile grew wider, but stopped when he saw Rong Si's expression.
His face was frosty and he looked down at her coldly.
Then in front of her, he tore the pale blue letter in half.
"You?" Shi Meng changed his face: "How can you do this?"
Rong Si's voice was cold: "Go away."
Seeing the opportunity, Peng Zige immediately jumped up and shouted, "Hurry up! You are not welcome in our class!"
Several boys and girls in the same class who were fighting for Li Erqin followed suit: "Get out of our class!"
Shi Meng felt tremendous humiliation, her pale face twitched violently, and she stared at Rong Si: "I didn't expect you to be such a person! We all misread you!"
Rong Si's eyes were filled with contempt without any modification.
Shi Meng screamed: "You are wasting our love for you!"
