My Stepmother’s Secret - Chapter 324 That Night
I was a little disdainful to hear her speak so casually. In her position, even if she wanted to play with me, it was no big deal. However, if she wanted to joke with me, I wouldn’t be angry. I was leaving anyway.
I looked back at her and said,
“Don’t tease me, miss. I know you have a great background, but a little shrimp like me can make such a move without being killed by the principal. I’m so lucky that I can’t be any luckier. Okay, I’m leaving.”
“Wait!”
She cried out:
“The things you did, the earth-shattering things, the school swimming pool incident, Professor Jiangtian, Foreign teachers black exchange students being raped, these things add up, just enough to make the current principal step down, and you become innocent, so that you can all stay, I said, you understand?”
“Those police officers are not eating dry food, they will also investigate, find out the interests, find out the operation of the underworld between them, of course, they will not indulge them, just in time, the province also needs to rectify the ethos of Foreign teachers on the university campus, so you become the lucky ones to stay.”
“No more nonsense. Just say, do you want to stay or not? You, if you want, I will tell my father to make sure that he will protect you. If it were before, he might not be able to protect so many people, but now it is a special time. Even the principal and the professors have stepped down. Of course, you are innocent. Of course, you still need those persecuted girls to write petitions. To help you prove that this is true, that you are innocent, that’s all.”
At first, I thought she was just playing with me, or trying to say something nice to me before I left school, but when I heard the news, I was stunned, and my joy was beyond words. I immediately nodded and said,
“Of course I do. I want to stay. I want to think about it!!”
When I spoke, I was trembling a little. I looked like a fool and lost all my composure as a boss. But at this moment, my mood was super happy.
Your lips are trembling. What’s wrong, excited? Hee hee.”
Li Xinyi laughed at me.
“Why are you acting like a fool? This is so funny, big boss, how did he look like this? Believe it or not, I’ll take one for your little brothers to see!”
I shook my head and said,
“I don’t care about that. All you have to do is tell me that what you said is true. If it is, I really want to thank your ancestors!”
She frowned and said:
“It’s true, but why do I feel like you’re scolding me?”
I laughed and said,
“No, no, thank you, then. I’ll take my brothers with me and thank you. We’ll treat you to a big meal!”
She snorted, pointed to the west side of the bus, and said to me:
“Treat me to a revolving restaurant again?”
I didn’t dare to say anything more. She remembered what happened last time. I think I’d better not say anything more. Otherwise, if she angers her and she doesn’t help me, then my hopes and my brothers’ will be dashed again.
With a feeling of unease, I went back. I didn’t tell my brothers about it. I was afraid that if it didn’t work out, then the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
However, before I could say anything, someone was already planning to leave. That was Xiaosun. He said hello to his family, and there was no family relationship that could help him stay. Moreover, his family meant that such a school was full of deceit and deception, and Foreign teachers was so misleading. It was better not to study here, so as not to delay Xiaosun’s future.
Seeing that he was going to leave, Xiaojia was also eager to move. Other people, such as full, also wanted to leave. I couldn’t sit still and stood up to dissuade them.
“Two more days. Anyway, the school hasn’t dealt with us yet, and the police are still investigating. Who is right and who is wrong? Maybe, two more days. If you still want to leave, I won’t keep you. It’s a pity to leave now, isn’t it?”
Xiaosun, Xiaojia, full. They looked at me, and finally, seeing my sincere eyes, they chose to believe me and said:
“Well, it’s only two days. We can stay with brother feng for another two days.”
In the past two days, we have witnessed the reconstruction of the canteen with our own eyes, as well as the broken cars that have been smashed, the repair that can’t be repaired, and the scrap that can’t be repaired. In fact, seeing these things broken and broken, these losses are not what we want to see. We just want to teach the people who should be punished, that’s all.
That day, I met Chen Ying, who was just about to leave school. Based on the relationship between Zhou Xurong’s father and the school, and Chen Ying’s family background, she left school for a period of time, and no one would take care of her. Moreover, there was no need to worry about her academic problems. With Chen Ying’s ability, she would never fail.
She saw me, and so did the brothers. Yao Zi wanted to call out his ex-sister-in-law, but he stopped. The captain grinned and pulled Na Na and the other brothers.
“Let’s go out and eat. Boss will be here soon.”
They knew what was going on, and they knew that if we didn’t make it this time, we would leave school forever. Qiang Zi and the rest of the local students were fine. They could still be in Dl city, and the rest of us would never belong to this city.
Especially me, maybe, this side of me and Chen Ying is the last, forever, never to meet again.
So, I, who was angry that she had followed Zhou Xurong, calmed down this time, took a deep breath, walked slowly towards her, and each step seemed like a century. Just like that, after a few centuries, I came to her.
He said to her,
“Long time no see.”
She chuckled.
“I haven’t seen you for a few days.”
She pointed to the newly rebuilt Four canteens and took the lead. I understood what she meant and wanted to sit down and have a cup of tea with me. Maybe this conversation will last forever.
The shop selling milk tea outside Four canteens has been rebuilt. This kind of shop is relatively simple, but the other shops were badly smashed and still under reconstruction. At that time, it was dark, and the owner did not recognize us. Moreover, at that time, the owner himself was afraid of being beaten half to death, so how could he be careful to recognize who was who.
She ordered a glass of lemonade and a cup of blueberry milk tea. She said she didn’t like milk tea. It was too strong and strong. Lemon was better. But I think lemonade is too cheap. Just two small slices of lemonade, soaked in water, and sold for six or seven yuan. It doesn’t taste like a bird at all. For poor students, it’s very cheap.
But that’s not the point. I’m talking to her, and she and I aren’t lovers anymore, so don’t worry about the details.
Next, we get to the point.
I coughed twice, rubbed my nose and said to her,
“Leaving school again?”
She said, “Yeah.”
I’m so embarrassed that I don’t know what to say. I can’t ask. Are you going directly to Zhou Xurong’s house to be his wife or sleeping with him? He just continued to touch his nose and look at her face, which was once so close to mine.
She broke two minutes of awkwardness and said to me:
“You organized the riot the night before yesterday. I heard that almost all the students in the school were involved. We all saw it. It was a huge scene. Zhang Feng, this is really something you can do. Impulsive and cohesive.”
I flattened my mouth, stood up and smiled, changed the side of the milk tea, continued to take a sip, and said:
“They’re going to be expelled anyway. There’s nothing to be afraid of. What should we do? We can’t let those evil Foreign teachers stay in this school, can we? Why should we let them play with our female students in china? Still playing by the rules, let’s go to him.”
When I finished, my face turned red with anger. She covered her mouth and smiled.
“You’re still so jealous of evil. That’s one of the reasons I liked you back then.”
At the mention of liking, I curled my lips and said:
“In the end, I don’t like it.”
She paused and didn’t speak. She finished her lemonade. I asked her if she wanted more. She looked at her phone and said,
“He’s coming to pick me up. I’m leaving soon.”
I said,
“Shall I walk you out of school?”
But when she frowned, I knew, and I immediately said:
“Forget it then. Don’t let your husband misunderstand you. You’re the one who’s really getting married. You’re engaged. Remember to call me when you get married. I’ll do whatever I want, haha.”
I pretended to be calm, but my heart was already bleeding.
When she went to check out, I stopped her. I looked into her eyes and said,
“Let me do it. Maybe this is the last time.”
She paused and didn’t stop me.
After I checked out, I stood at the entrance of Four canteens. She was standing in front of the coming school bus. I waved goodbye to her, and she, when the first school bus passed, didn’t get on, but walked towards me.
I was stunned. My heart was racing. She was facing me and gave me a big hug. I paused. She hugged me. I hugged her too. In public, many people knew me and knew her. Just looking at me like that, I wasn’t handsome.
She just hugged me, and I didn’t say anything, and she, in my ear, said softly:
“That night, you promised me not to tell anyone. You, you broke your promise.”
It dawned on me that this was the reason why we broke up, right? She was disappointed in me. I promised her that I would never say anything about the night I spent with her, but in order to annoy Zhou Xurong and make him give up, I said it in a flash. This was her shame. She went to bed before she got married. It was such a big stain on a girl, especially when she valued her virginity more than anything else. The girl I want, I know I was wrong, I was so wrong, I didn’t even know where I was wrong.
Ah, man.
Oh, I really deserve to die!
After that, her tears brushed across my face and dripped onto my neck, my neck, cold, light tears. I touched them and watched her leave my side like this.
When she got on the second bus, she sat in the first seat in the second row, and I shouted in her direction:
“I’m sorry.”
Then I shouted again:
“Do I still have a chance?”
At that time, when I called out this sentence, the young boys and girls on the school bus all looked at me. They had freshmen and juniors. Many of them knew me and just stared at me blankly.
Chen Ying, on the other hand, didn’t look back, but I saw tears running down her eyelids. She said it in a low voice, but I heard it.
“You can’t take it back. You can’t go back.”
I can’t go back.
I’m not going.
Her words echoed in my mind like a magic sound, echoing in my ears, and my mind kept jumping.
I finally cried like rain, the sun in the sky, my heart like an abyss.
I finally lost you.
I finally know what I did wrong.
I finally understood the lyrics of Chang Csun Yuk’s song “Missing is a disease.”
When we fell in love, we didn’t know anything, what was wrong, what was the reason for our separation, and we didn’t know. Only after we separated and thought about the past, did we know what kind of stupid things we did in the first place.
It wasn’t until then that I realized how many things I had done wrong. Just like Ao Xiaoxue, who was with me back then, I might have had a lot of things to disappoint and despair her, but she didn’t say them at the time. That’s why she obeyed her family and agreed to leave me.
It’s just that at that time, I didn’t understand, and I didn’t understand why.
So, so now, I understand, but it’s too late.
Maybe this is the color of youth. Without pain, there is no youth, and there is no youth.
Goodbye, Chen Ying.
The next day, Li Xinyi called me and told me that everything was done and that I was ready for dinner. I was skeptical.
However, when the school issued the regulations and orders, I knew that she did not lie to me. We were two dormitories, a dozen brothers, plus the captain’s hard wait, we were begging for help, and in the end, it was not in vain.
When the captain saw this, he was so happy that he almost jumped down the stairs. Fortunately, we held him back, otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
“Captain, are you crazy? This is not the second floor of your dormitory, we are on the fourth floor! Idiot!”
However, when we scolded him, he was not angry at all. Instead, he laughed like an idiot. I pulled Na Na’s arm and said,
“Look at your husband. Dump him. Come with me?”
Beautiful Na Na, dressed well every day. She was not a classy flower or a school flower, but she was beautiful every day, much better than her neighbor’s sister.
She smiled and said,
“Sure.”
It caught the captain’s jealous gaze, as if he was going to kill someone.
