On Dai Ning's first day of school, the person she was most worried about was Chen Jing.
He was afraid that she would be bullied because of her delicate appearance, and her classmates would dislike her bad temper. If she couldn't make friends, she would definitely be sad when she returned.
But his new job didn't allow him to think about that.
The cheers and shouts from the dark audience made the whole world noisy.
Chen Jing took off his shirt, put on boxing gloves, and moved his wrists a few times.
The person in charge smiled and said, "Our Director Wan is very optimistic about you. 'Zero' is disabled, so you will be our new Zero in the arena."
They had long heard that there was a person in Alley 18 who they could not afford to offend. That person had top-notch fighting skills and was very capable of fighting.
Chen Jing had previously refused their recruitment, but two days ago, for some unknown reason, he suddenly changed his mind.
The "Zero" of the underground boxing match was seriously injured and became paralyzed on one side of his body. The boxing match needed a new trump card.
Chen Jing is this card.
The person in charge said in an excited tone: "You are the newcomer, and the odds are already 1:8.7! You must win this game!"
Once Chen Jing wins, the dealer can make a fortune.
Chen Jing naturally knew what this meant. Fighting in a black boxing situation, once he chose this path, either his opponent would be disabled or dead, or he would be beaten to death or disabled.
Chen Jing was not afraid. He had no fear of death. Instead, he had a mysterious feeling of excitement.
There are two characteristics of black boxing: extremely high prize money, no rules, and people clenching their fists and cheering wildly, showing that they like the most brutal way of fighting.
The person in charge said, “Go ahead.”
Chen Jing moved his neck, thinking that he would finish the fight as soon as possible and go home to buy a cake for his sister.
After Dai Ning finished her evening study, Li Ming came to pick her up.
"Where's my brother?"
Li Ming scratched his head, remembering that Brother Jing had told her not to tell him, so he said, "Brother Jing is working overtime, I'll take you home first. If you want to eat anything, I'll buy it for you later."
"Oh." Dai Ning pointed to the ice cream on the roadside and instructed him, "Brother Li Ming, buy me a strawberry flavored one."
"Hey! Right away."
Qingtuan is a curious baby: "Daining, what kind of job do you think Chen Jing does?"
How come you suddenly have the money to move and find a school
Dai Ning was not interested. No matter what Chen Jing did, as long as he could make her live a good life, it was fine.
Li Ming was confused by her instructions, and Dai Ning bought a lot of snacks along the way. Li Ming sent her home: "Daidai, do your homework, Brother Jing will be back later."
Dai Ning nodded: "Goodbye."
As soon as Li Ming left, she lazily curled up on the sofa, eating ice cream with a spoon while watching a melodramatic TV series.
Qingtuan has also been addicted to watching dramas recently, and he and Daining discussed it with great interest: "This new character is the heroine, right?"
"How do you know?"
Qingtuan analyzed: "She kissed and hugged the male lead, she must be the female lead!"
Dai Ning: "No, she is the hero's sister. After the DNA test, it was found that she is the hero's long-lost sister."
A question mark slowly appeared on Qingtuan’s head. What kind of weird plot is this foreign drama
"Have you ever heard of this saying? May all lovers in the world eventually become brothers and sisters."
Qingtuan couldn't believe it: "Don't lie to me, you haven't even seen it, how do you know?"
Dai Ning: "I checked the spoilers online a few days ago."
Qingtuan doubted life. This kind of plot was interesting to Dai Ning. What about her values? The more Qingtuan thought about it, the more he felt that she was alluding to Chen Jing.
Dai Ning: "You think too much. Isn't it exciting?"
Qingtuan: This is too exciting.
The group continued to watch TV.
It was almost eleven o'clock when the door was finally opened. Chen Jing pushed the door open and Dai Ning moved her nose and smelled a hint of blood in the air.
She remained calm, ran over from the sofa, and said happily: "Brother, you are home!"
Chen Jing touched her hair and handed her the cake he bought on the way.
Dai Ning opened it, tasted a spoonful herself, and then scooped up some to feed Chen Jing.
Chen Jing shook his head.
Dai Ning didn't force him and ate by herself. Without waiting for Chen Jing to speak, she picked up the cake and followed him all the way, saying in a soft voice: "Brother, I missed you so much today! I missed you during class and after class. I don't like Brother Li Ming to pick me up. When can you pick me up?"
Chen Jing coughed softly and pretended not to hear. He went to the bathroom to wash his hands, took out a notebook, wrote on the paper and asked her: "How was school today?"
Daning nodded.
— “Are you getting along well with your classmates?”
"very good."
— “Did you make any new friends?”
"Uh-huh!"
She smiled with curved eyes and spoke with the aroma of cake, looking very cute. Chen Jingsong said, "It's good that the classmates didn't reject her."
"Brother, come watch TV. I found a really good TV series."
Daning pulled his clothes and asked him to sit down. She lazily lay beside him and continued to eat cake.
Chen Jing had expected this kind of life before, but for so many years, he was alone, facing an empty house. Now the lights were warm, and the girl beside him also looked warm.
He finally didn't have to tense up anymore, and could relax a little and watch TV with her.
Qingtuan covered his face. Oh my god, that was such an eye-catching setting. Ji Daining actually invited Chen Jing to watch it together. It must be poisonous! It covered its eyes and felt so ashamed.
Chen Jing frowned as he watched. This plot...
The story has developed to the point where they went for a DNA test, and the girl cried and said, "Even if you are my brother, I still love you."
The male protagonist had a painful look on his face, and secretly said to himself that of course he loved her too.
It was raining heavily on TV. The girl ran away in despair. The hero chased her and planned to kiss her passionately in the rain.
Chen Jing turned to look at the girl beside him. There was cream on the corner of her lips and she looked at him innocently.
Chen Jing picked up the remote control and tried to turn off the TV. What a mess!
A brother is a brother, how could he have such thoughts about his sister
Chen Jing: "Change it."
To be honest, his deep and scary voice is scarier than a horror movie at night. Dai Ning shook her head, "No, I like this one, it's good."
Chen Jing: "Stop it!"
Dai Ning was watching with great interest, and rushed over to grab the remote control: "Don't turn it off!"
She stepped on the man's legs like a little wild cat and tried to reach the remote control in his hand.
Chen Jing's body reacted faster than his brain. He clamped her hands behind her back and moved his knees apart. Dai Ning was immediately pinned down on the sofa.
She was stunned for a moment, and Qingtuan was also stunned.
Dai Ning maintained the prone position, and a passionate kiss had already started on TV. Chen Jing decisively raised his hand to turn off the TV.
When Chen Jing turned around, he realized something was wrong. The little girl on the sofa was covering her face and sobbing. Her whole face was buried in her loose curly hair, and her shoulders were shaking.
"Wuwuwu, brother is domestic violence."
Chen Jing froze: "..."
What he did just now was just a conditioned reflex. After all, he made a living from this line of work, and it had become an instinct trained from childhood. Besides, he didn't use any strength at all.
Dai Ning cried more and more sadly. She sobbed and said, "I don't like my brother anymore. You hit me."
Chen Jing had a terrible headache. He turned Dai Ning over and saw a pair of tearful eyes. Well, the corners of her eyes were red from crying. Chen Jing wiped away her tears and explained awkwardly, "I, I didn't do it on purpose."
He just didn't want Daning to snatch the remote control, but who would have thought that she, a weakling, would fall down as soon as she was touched, and even fell flat on her face. She was weak and stupid, and there was no one else like her.
Daning's tears fell and she cried even louder.
Chen Jing turned on the TV and stroked the little girl's hair: "Look, let's watch it."
The eldest lady had never suffered such an injustice before. This time, no matter how hard he tried to coax her, she slapped his hand away and ran back to her room.
The heart-wrenching and bloody drama was still being played on TV. Chen Jing stood at the door of her room for a long time and knocked, but Daning didn't open the door.
This time he really got angry.
Chen Jing knew that Dai Ning's mood changed from time to time. The next morning, he hoped that Dai Ning could forget about watching TV last night.
Unexpectedly, her eyes turned red. She didn't look at him, didn't eat breakfast, and walked out dejectedly.
Chen Jing was worried and followed her all the way to school.
Daning noticed him behind her, she turned around, pulled out a lollipop from her bag and threw it at him fiercely.
Chen Jing didn't move, and the candy flew over his shoulder.
Qingtuan: “…”
The scene was very awkward for a while. Dai Ning was angry and disliked Chen Jing even more. She didn't want this worthless brother anymore! Asshole, if she couldn't hit him, didn't he know how to catch it himself!
The house was very close to the school, and it took Dai Ning less than thirteen minutes to walk to school. If she was this fast at ordinary times, Chen Jing would not have to worry about her being late.
Dai Ning had her hair tied up, with a blue ribbon hanging on her shoulders. She was wearing the school uniform, but she could be recognized at a glance among the boys and girls. Only she could wear clothes in a unique way.
Chen Jing went back with peace of mind only after seeing that she arrived at school safely.
He has at most three matches a day, all at night. Chen Jing has nothing to do during the day, so he doesn't have to go to the underground boxing arena. Because of the TV drama incident, Chen Jing didn't sleep well last night. Logically, he should make up for the sleep, but as soon as he closed his eyes, he saw Dai Ning's tearful eyes.
For the first time, she was angry with him.
Don't stick to him, don't say nice things to him, and don't even want him to give you anything.
An unrelieved depression rose in his heart. No matter how excessive Chen Lianxing had been in the past, he had never felt this way.
The feeling was so strange that it made it hard for him to sleep.
Daning slept soundly.
The classroom is so nice to sleep in. The teacher’s voice is the most beautiful lullaby in the world.
She slept with a unicorn pillow on her head, her face rosy. Although she was angry with Chen Jing, she would not be hard on herself.
Today, there was a class taught by our homeroom teacher, Mr. Mao. The mild-tempered Mr. Mao passed by her several times and looked at the note.
Before the new classmates came, I had never heard of this disease.
Teacher Mao plans to take some time to have a good talk with her parents. If a student suffers from narcolepsy, it will definitely affect her studies.
After class, Qingtuan woke her up as usual.
"Daining, someone is watching you outside."
Dai Ning opened her eyes and looked out sleepily, meeting a pair of unruly black eyes.
The paper strips on her face were still flying, and the girl's curly hair fell naturally, making her look a little cute and funny.
The boy outside the window did smile.
Daning lay there motionless, her eyes like black grapes blinking weakly.
The classmates around me were talking in low voices.
"Li Hu from Class 14 is here!"
"He came to see the weirdo in our class."
"Li Hu laughed. I've never seen him laugh before!"
…
The window of the back door was not closed. Li Hu opened the window, reached out his hand with interest, and tore off the note on the girl's face.
Her round cat eyes looked at her with dissatisfaction.
Li Hu's eyes stayed fixed on her face for two seconds, and he pasted the note back to her as if nothing had happened. Dai Ning blinked twice, too lazy to argue with the rebellious boy, she closed her eyes and fell asleep again.
Li Hu stared at her for a long time. Just as the rumors said, she really looked like a little sloth.
When the class bell rang, Li Hu put his hands in his pockets and left.
The students of Class 8 were about to explode when they saw all this!
Li Hu is a well-known figure in the school. He comes from a well-off family and has a shabby appearance. With this name, background, and looks, he would be a school bully in a romance novel.
But Li Hu was different. He had pretty good grades and he was not usually interested in anything. This was the first time he went up from the second floor to the third floor and tore off the note from his classmate, the sloth.
The class was in an uproar. Qingtuan felt dizzy after hearing what he heard and planned to organize the information and report it to Daining later.
It's a useless group. Alas, it can only use useless and sad methods to help the contractors.
After the evening self-study, Dai Ning woke up on time. She drank the blueberry milk in her thermos and walked slowly to the school gate.
Class 8 all knew her painting style and didn't actively approach her, but wherever she was, she would always be the focus.
The lights on both sides of the campus were on, and Li Hu was waiting for her at the school gate.
Dai Ning pretended not to see him and walked past him. Li Hu reached out and grabbed her schoolbag.
Dai Ning turned around. Was she going to be bullied in school? She tilted her head to look at Li Hu. She had never experienced school violence before and was a little curious. Should she call for help
Li Hu opened her schoolbag and put a box of chocolate-covered strawberries, a few small buckets of preserved fruits, and a bag of dried fish into it.
Daning looked at the bag being filled and asked him, "What are you doing?"
The young man in front of him raised his lips and smiled perversely, his tone was smiling: "As you can see, it pleases you." The voice was unexpectedly pleasant.
Dai Ning picked at the snacks he gave her: "I don't eat dried fish."
Li Hu calmly took out the dried fish: "It's gone now."
She tilted her head: "What do you want to do, fall in love with me?"
"May I?"
Dai Ning thought about it and said seriously: "No, my brother will be angry."
Li Hu thought she was adorable: "As long as your brother isn't angry, will you agree?"
Daning nodded: "Yeah."
Qingtuan is simply unbearable to look at. Where is your moral integrity? Don't you two feel embarrassed to discuss this kind of thing
Li Hu laughed out loud.
He doesn't look sunny, but rather a bit evil. No wonder the girls say he's a typical school bully, and you can tell at first glance that he's not a good guy.
