Jiang Sui thought she had seen it wrong. There were crowds of people in front of her. However, the young man walking on campus was so tall that she could see him in the crowd from a distance. She felt that the figure from behind looked familiar yet strange.
“Chen Shujun, look at the person under the teaching building, does he look familiar?”
Chen Shujun took a closer look: “Wow, he is so tall.” She only marveled at the height, but she didn’t think he looked familiar. “Do you know him?”
Jiang Sui thought it was impossible, so she shook her head: “I’m overthinking it.”
When the two little girls returned to the classroom, Chen Shujun was so hot that she fanned herself with her hands.
Jiang Di in the back row was surrounded by several girls, and they were gossiping.
What they were focused on this year was not chasing stars or video games, but the changes around them. Jiang Di said like a storyteller: “…The afternoon before yesterday, I saw the principal receiving a man in a car. Just watch, there will definitely be new students in our school.”
Someone retorted: “How do you know? What if it’s the principal’s friend coming to reminisce about old times?”
Jiang Di said: “Because I saw it. During the physical education class, someone drove over in a car. It was a girl. She was wearing a Cardcaptor Sakura mask[1] on her face. She seemed older than us. I guess. She must be a sophomore or a senior in high school.”
The girls exclaimed.
“Jiang Di, is she pretty?”
Jiang Di said: “I told you she was wearing a mask, so I don’t know if she looks good or not. But her skirt was very beautiful. I have never seen such a beautiful skirt in school.”
The girls held their chins in their hands and said with envy: “The daughter of a big boss and her clothes are nice, so she should look good too.”
Jiang Di thought for a moment: “It doesn’t matter. The teaching building is not far away anyway. We will see her soon.”
Jiang Di was right. Their teaching building was the Yifu Teaching Building, and the teaching building next door was called the Gewu Teaching Building. Students in the third grade of junior high school attended classes in the “Gewu Teaching Building.”
A few days later, when Jiang Sui went to the school canteen to buy a new pen, she passed by the “Gewu Teaching Building” and saw students gathered outside Class 1 of Junior Three.
A girl in an apricot skirt was fighting with a girl in rose red.
Girl fight! What an exciting scene, not to mention that the girl in rose red clothes was Lin Wenwen.
Jiang Sui had heard of Lin Wenwen. This senior was very famous in the school. She served as the school’s host last year. It was said that she had also participated in a speech contest on behalf of the school and won the first prize.
Lin Wenwen was pure, beautiful, and arrogant. She was the famous “Rose Flower” of Sunshine Middle School this year.
Later, when Jiang Sui grew up, some people even compared Jiang Sui’s appearance with Lin Wenwen.
It could be seen that when such a goddess was struggling with others at this time, there were boos all around, and some people even wanted to come forward to start a fight as well.
The other girl in an apricot skirt was wearing a mask as she slapped Lin Wenwen desperately, as if she hated that face.
Lin Wenwen’s eyes were red, she grabbed Duan Ling’s hair and pulled off Duan Ling’s mask.
The crowd fell silent for a moment, there was a deathly silence.
Duan Ling suddenly screamed and beat Lin Wenwen like crazy.
Jiang Sui saw it accidentally and was stunned. Duan Ling had a very abrupt forehead protrusion, small eyes, and a strange hare lip even after repair.
No wonder she wore a mask.
The crowd began to chatter and talk, and everyone was sweating profusely, but no one could pull them away.
A young man with a bottle of water came over with a frown. He pushed aside the crowd and pulled Duan Ling up from the ground.
At this moment, Duan Ling’s hair was messy and her face was trembling with tears. She covered her face in panic and said to the crowd: “Don’t look! Don’t look!”
Jiang Sui’s eyes fell on the young man and she whispered softly: “Chi Yan…” It turned out to be Chi Yan!
The sixteen-year-old boy was wearing a gray windbreaker. In the still-bleak March wind, he squatted down, stretched out his hand towards Lin Wenwen, and said coldly: “Mask.”
Lin Wenwen retracted her hand, but Chi Yan grabbed it directly.
Chi Yan took the mask and handed it to Duan Ling: “Miss Duan Ling, I’m sorry.”
Duan Ling put on her mask with trembling hands. She kicked Chi Yan and punched him: “Why didn’t you help me teach her a lesson? Aren’t you my father’s most loyal dog? Now I order you to beat this little bitch.”
Her sharp nails scratched several scars on Chi Yan’s face. More and more people gathered around her, and their eyes finally fell on Chi Yan.
Chi Yan lowered his eyes, his face expressionless, as if the person Duan Ling was venting on was not him.
Under his gray windbreaker, his pants were kicked several times, but he was still holding the water bottle Duan Ling had asked him to buy.
Some people couldn’t stand it and wanted to pull Duan Ling away, but they were grabbed by the people around them: “Don’t meddle in other people’s business. That boy is here to study with Duan Ling. In ancient times, he would have been considered a domestic slave. Didn’t you hear what Duan Ling said? Can we care for him in the future?”
Perhaps this year, her actions were still faster than her thoughts. Jiang Sui could no longer bear it and ran over from the small flower bed.
Her body balance was much better now, and she barely stopped Duan Ling’s hand: “Okay, why are you hitting him!”
The little girl’s voice was crisp. She raised her little face and glared at Duan Ling.
Chi Yan, who had been unresponsive, raised his eyes slightly and looked at Jiang Sui in front of him silently.
The little girl was still short, less than thirteen years old, only half a girl. Even shorter than his chest, petite, fragile and childish.
She was a head shorter than Duan Ling, but among so many people, she was the only one who dared to speak.
Jiang Sui opened her hands like a kitten with fried fur and looked up at Duan Ling.
Duan Ling glanced at Jiang Sui with an unkind look, but unexpectedly she became calmer.
She looked at Jiang Sui in front of her. Half of the little girl’s face was wrapped in gauze, and the other half was swollen, but she didn’t cover it up, and she didn’t feel inferior despite such a strange and miserable little face.
Duan Ling cared most about her appearance in her life, which was why she got into a fight with Lin Wenwen. Jiang Sui’s miserable little face made Duan Ling feel much better.
However, Duan Ling still sneered: “Chi Yan, is this your attitude when doing things?”
Chi Yan paused, then raised his hand and gently pushed Jiang Sui away in front of him. The little girl looked over in confusion, and Chi Yan said, “At school, I have to listen to her.”
Jiang Sui staggered when he pushed her and whispered “Oh”.
Duan Ling thought Jiang Sui was a little girl who came to start a fight, so she didn’t pay attention. But this girl, who had not yet grown up, did have a delicate voice.
Jiang Sui slowly stepped aside and looked at them with a pair of clear eyes.
Duan Ling was interrupted by Jiang Sui, and she didn’t know how angry she was. But she couldn’t rush forward and kick her a few more times, so she turned around and said harshly to Lin Wenwen: “Wait for me.”
Lin Wenwen was supported by several people, looking at her provocatively and mockingly. In Duan Ling’s eyes, she seemed to be laughing at the moment when her mask was pulled off.
Duan Ling’s originally relaxed nerves became tense again, and she glared at Lin Wenwen fiercely, as if she wanted to tear her face off.
Chi Yan frowned, paused, and handed her the bottle of water. Duan Ling was shaking with anger. So, she waved away Chi Yan’s hand, the bottle fell to the ground, and rolled far away. Duan Ling raised her hand and slapped Chi Yan on the face: “Trash!”
The students had never seen such a scene before, and they were all shocked.
Chi Yan’s eyes were still light, and he turned away slightly, not looking at Jiang Sui beside him.
Jiang Sui lowered her head.
Last year, she made up her mind not to have anything to do with them again. At that time, she thought that the suffering of Chi Yan’s youth was over. He would let go and flourish, and she would perhaps hear his name again in the years to come, only as a respectable gentleman who appeared in financial magazines. After all gold scales were things that turned into dragons when encountering wind and clouds.
She originally thought that what was waiting for Chi Yan was a bright and smooth road.
But now the reality told her that after not seeing him for more than half a year, he was dressed well and looked respectable, but his self-esteem was still trampled under others’ feet.
In the spring of 2000, there was still no one who loved or cared for him.
The class bell rang, and the students who were watching the excitement ran into the classroom. Duan Ling refused to go back to the classroom and ran towards the school gate.
Chi Yan also followed, and after walking a few steps, he turned back and said, “Jiang Sui.”
Jiang Sui looked up.
Chi Yan said coldly: “Don’t worry about this kind of thing in the future.” The young man’s voice seemed to have been tempered by ice, “It has nothing to do with you, you should be smarter.”
She looked at him quietly, neither nodding nor shaking her head.
Chi Yan knew that the fire from before was still burning in his heart. If she took care of him now, but didn’t take care of him for the rest of her life, what was the use? It was like sympathizing with the cats and dogs on the roadside, feeding them occasionally to save them from being beaten, but if you don’t take them home, everything you did was meaningless.
He really hated this kind of sympathy that made people look forward to it and still hurt his heart.
Chi Yan’s eyes were cold: “Remember, if it were me, no matter what happens to you, I wouldn’t care.”
Jiang Sui was stunned for a long time: “Oh.” She thought for a moment, then carefully explained in a soft voice, “I’m sorry, my brain is slow to react, and I was standing here when I reacted.”
So if she had reacted originally, she wouldn’t have come over, right? The smell of blood came out of the young man’s mouth. He stopped looking at her and went to look for Duan Ling. Why did he humiliate himself and say something like that!
Jiang Sui held the pen in her hand and was speechless for a long time.
She was a little confused. She explained according to Chi Yan’s intention, but he seemed to be even angrier?
