When Chu Jianshu arrived at the office, he knocked on the door before entering.

He seemed to be walking steadily and politely, but his expression was serious and his brows were suppressed.

The head teacher began to feel Chu Jianshu's aura, and the atmosphere in the entire office became cold and quiet.

After Chu Jianshu checked Wan Qiu's condition, his face looked extremely bad.

Wan Qiu lowered his head slightly, but looked up at Chu Jianshu with great concern.

Chu Jianshu seemed to realize something, relaxed, and rubbed Wan Qiu's head slightly.

"Don't worry, Daddy's here."

Wan Qiu vaguely realized that Chu Jianshu did not seem to be angry with him.

He clearly did something wrong, but Chu Jianshu's unhappiness was not directed at him.

The head teacher gave a brief account of the situation.

Actually, Wanqiu had nothing to do with what happened here. It was just two hot-blooded boys getting into a conflict over the same girl.

And the other boy standing here is one of the parties involved in the conflict.

The reason why Wan Qiu got involved was because the class study committee member tried to stop the people who came to the class to cause trouble, and he got involved with a tough attitude.

"The student council member in our class is a girl with a serious personality. She is very methodical in everything she does. She stepped in to stop the incident so that it wouldn't get too serious.

But at that time, the two boys were arguing fiercely. The boy from another class thought that our student council member was meddling in other people’s business, so he was so angry that he wanted to hit the student council member.

At that time, Chu Wanqiu bravely blocked it. "

Wan Qiu stepped forward to protect the student council members from being beaten.

However, because the boys from other classes suddenly attacked, the boys in this class also wanted to fight back.

The two men were about to fight, and the student council member was caught in the middle because he was scared.

"Then Wan Qiu also punched the boy from another class in the stomach... I guess he just hit his stomach, and the boy vomited at the time. His condition is not good. He is still in the school hospital."

Because of Wan Qiu's action, other boys were prevented from joining in the attack, and the situation did not escalate too much.

Wan Qiu doesn't know how to fight.

But for Wan Qiu's own safety, Yang Ze taught Wan Qiu a lot of fighting skills.

I can only say that the other party had bad luck.

Wan Qiu doesn't like violence.

Wan Qiu, who had been subjected to violence before, was actually panicked when he saw the other party bending down after he had taken action.

I stood there at a loss as to what to do.

"Really?" Chu Jianshu did not show much emotion after hearing the whole story.

He turned and looked at Wan Qiu's injured eye.

Then he turned his head and said to Chu Yigui: "Yigui, Uncle Song is waiting at the school gate. Take Wan Qiu home first and let the doctor take a look."

"Okay." Chu Yigui stood up and pulled Wan Qiu up.

Chu Jianshu's fingers gently brushed across Wan Qiu's wound, so gently that Wan Qiu even felt a little itchy rather than painful.

"Go home and rest."

Wan Qiu nodded blankly.

Chu Yigui took Wan Qiu away, while Chu Jianshu stayed in the school with a lawyer to deal with the next matters.

Wan Qiu looked back at Chu Jianshu before leaving the classroom.

Chu Jianshu was filled with an unhappy vibe, but...

Not scary.

But the unhappiness that Wan Qiu once feared seemed completely different.

Chu Yigui pulled Wan Qiu, and he was even more silent than usual.

The weather was already very cold, Wan Qiu went back to the classroom to get his coat, but Chu Yigui was still wearing his thin school uniform.

Wan Qiu pulled Chu Yigui upstairs, and Chu Yigui then remembered to take his clothes.

Chu Yigui personally sorted out Wan Qiu's clothes.

Wan Qiu put on his hat himself, not wanting Chu Yigui to keep looking into his eyes.

As soon as they went out, Song Wenqi got out of the car immediately when he saw the two people coming out at the gate. He took a breath when he saw Wan Qiu.

"Oh my God, how could he be beaten like this?" Song Wenqi was also shocked after seeing it.

There was a hint of helplessness in Wan Qiu's other intact eye.

Obviously, the concern of others made him vaguely feel something.

"If the Madam knew about this, she would bomb the school, right?"

Rather than expressing his feelings, Song Wenqi felt that what he said was more realistic.

Song Wenqiu looked at Chu Yigui who was standing beside him.

The child was quiet and said nothing.

But at this time, Song Wenqi felt that getting angry was more reassuring than being so quiet.

"Does it hurt? Or should we go to the hospital directly? Do you feel dizzy?"

Wan Qiu kept shaking his head.

For Wan Qiu, it was just a bruise and obstructed vision in one eye, but everything else was fine.

Song Wenqi felt that Chu Jianshu might not be very calm at the moment, but fortunately he had a lawyer with him.

Song Wenqi looked at the rearview mirror several times and felt palpitations.

Song Wenqi was not the person who took care of Wan Qiu, but he knew the situation just by hinting at it.

Wan Qiu is now almost being pampered by everyone.

When it’s hot, you have to find ways to cool down. When it’s cold, you have to put on more clothes yourself. You have to eat healthily and have someone follow you wherever you go.

I was so careful as if I was holding a round, loose snowball, afraid that it would get bumped or scratched and a piece would suddenly be missing.

This matter can be big or small...

The prerequisite is that it must be handled before Yang Xiaoyu comes back, otherwise things will probably get out of hand.

Instead of returning to the house near the high school, they were sent back to the villa by Song Wenqi, where a private doctor was already waiting.

When Butler Bai saw Wan Qiu's appearance, he was obviously quite excited.

Song Wenqi kept asking questions to the private doctor.

Wan Qiu obediently allowed the private doctor to examine him.

It was not until the private doctor left and Song Wenqi and Chu Jianshu reported the situation that Wan Qiu returned to the bedroom accompanied by Chu Yigui.

From beginning to end, Chu Yigui didn't say another word.

Wan Qiu felt that Chu Yigui now seemed to be deprived of all color and became gray.

It is impossible to tell whether Chu Yigui is angry or something else.

“I can still take classes.”

Finally, Wan Qiu tried to say something to Chu Yigui.

Even if Chu Yigui remained silent, as long as Wan Qiu spoke to him, Chu Yigui would not fail to respond.

"Even if you don't go to class, I can help you with all your high school courses."

Chu Yigui's voice sounded a little cold, and Wan Qiu felt a little nervous.

“Am I ugly now?”

Wan Qiu hadn't seen himself in the mirror yet, but he remembered the marks of injury very clearly.

Hideous, weird, ugly, wounds are always disgusting.

"No." Chu Yigui answered simply.

Wan Qiu looked at Chu Yigui.

Even though Chu Yigui's eyes were always on him, Wan Qiu felt that this look was different from usual.

"Yigui..." Wan Qiu hesitated, imitating Chu Yigui's guidance to him, "Do you want to tell me something?"

Chu Yigui closed his eyes.

Wan Qiu was very confused and saw Chu Yigui open his eyes again.

"Why do you want to get involved in things that have nothing to do with you?" Chu Yigui asked.

Wan Qiu's fingers were entangled with each other intentionally or unintentionally.

“I like the study committee member very much.”

Wan Qiu noticed that Chu Yigui's expression was a little stiff.

Wan Qiu thought about it and decided to make it clearer.

"The study committee member said that Yigui is her idol and those who like Yigui are good classmates, so I like her very much."

There was an unconscious hint of hesitation on Chu Yigui's face.

"So I don't want her to get beaten. Being beaten... hurts."

Under Chu Yigui's gaze, Wan Qiu was still sitting quietly, but his body was curled up unconsciously.

It's like an instinctive defensive posture to protect the most painful part.

Because being beaten hurts, he doesn't want the person he likes to suffer from it.

"Shouldn't you avoid danger? Why don't you avoid it?"

Chu Yigui realized his preference for Wan Qiu.

Compared to other people's injuries, Wan Qiu's injury was more unbearable for him.

In the place closest to you.

Wan Qiu was injured.

Chu Yigui did not get Wan Qiu's answer immediately.

Wan Qiu was silent, and Chu Yigui saw Wan Qiu’s thoughts.

"I will not be beaten obediently. You have been teaching me this all along, and I have learned it."

"Shouldn't we run?" Chu Yigui asked persistently.

"Because I don't want others to get beaten." Wan Qiu's fingers quietly grasped the cushion beside him, "Besides, I will fight back."

Chu Yigui opened his mouth, but no words came out.

Wan Qiu seemed to have changed.

It seems that something is retained.

Chu Yigui stepped forward and leaned on Wan Qiu's shoulder.

Wan Qiu reached out and held Chu Yigui's fingers.

In other words, he just held Chu Yigui's fingertips.

Because he realized that he had made Chu Yigui angry, he touched her carefully.

"I did...ok?"

Chu Yigui heard Wan Qiu's cautious question, which was intended to get a positive answer.

Chu Yigui didn't want to affirm Wan Qiu.

If possible, he would rather see Wan Qiu escape.

Wan Qiu chose to face the violence that he once feared to the extreme.

He even achieved results.

Wanqiu has been making progress little by little, imperceptibly.

Becoming strong and capable.

"Yeah." Chu Yigui finally agreed.

"Won't Dad blame me?" Wan Qiu asked.

"No." Chu Yigui said.

"Do I have the ability to help others?" Wan Qiu said, tilting his head slightly.

"Um."

Wan Qiu couldn't see Chu Yigui's face.

He vaguely realized that Chu Yigui didn't seem to want him to see it.

Even though Chu Yigui's warmth was continuously transmitted to him and the cold was blocked outside the glass, Wan Qiu still felt a little cold in the warm room.

"I remember what Brother Li Shuo did. Brother Li Shuo is a very important friend of Yigui."

Li Shuo is a very brotherly boy who is always happy to protect his friends.

"I want to be like Brother Li Shuo and make Yigui feel that he can be trusted..."

Wan Qiu was once entrusted to Li Shuo by Chu Yigui.

Wan Qiu has always lived a good life under Li Shuo's protection.

if you can……

He wanted to be that person, too.

Chu Yigui's fingers trembled slightly.

Wan Qiu heard a sigh.

"I have learned a lot from you that I haven't learned before."

There was a subtle hint of helplessness in Chu Yigui's voice.

"Are you trying to learn from me too?"

Wan Qiu blinked.

"Well, I've always wanted to learn from Yigui, but it's probably hard to learn because Yigui is a genius."

However, Chu Yigui did not answer.

Wan Qiu noticed that the bracelet on his wrist was being pulled unconsciously by Chu Yigui.

Wan Qiu no longer wears the bracelet all the time.

But for Wan Qiu, this bracelet pulled him even more than the bracelet itself.

“Then I have to be better.”

Wan Qiu was a little confused.

Chu Yigui did not say the next words.

As long as he remains good enough, perhaps Wan Qiu will continue to watch him and learn from him.

As long as he is good enough, maybe he can change Wan Qiu's more dangerous thinking.

They always learn from each other and achieve each other.

Now it's as if they are really...indistinguishable from each other.

Chu Yigui lowered his eyes and looked at their intertwined fingers.

They are clearly two hands, yet they are always inseparable.

But compared to now, I don’t know why…

He began to feel anxious.

It seemed that such touch no longer satisfied him.

Chu Yigui raised his eyes and looked at Wan Qiu’s injured eye.

Because Wan Qiu will never just look at him.

In the invisible place, experiencing things he would never know.

——

There is no way Yang Xiaoyu didn't know what Butler Bai knew.

When Wan Qiu saw the video call from Yang Xiaoyu, he held the phone, feeling helpless.

"Take it." Chu Yigui said, "You'll know sooner or later."

Wan Qiu didn't know what would happen if he answered the video, but his instinct told him that something bad might happen.

But Chu Yigui said he would accept it.

Wan Qiu hesitated and connected the video.

Instinctively, he didn't want Yang Xiaoyu to see his injury, but it was in the most conspicuous place.

Wan Qiu's hands were loosely covering the corners of his eyes.

When the video was connected, Yang Xiaoyu's face and voice came from the other side in an instant.

"Baby, put your hands down and show mommy."

Yang Xiaoyu's voice today sounded different from her usual cheerful voice that always rose.

Even through the screen and the distance, Wan Qiu could feel Yang Xiaoyu's anger.

Wan Qiu has always been the obedient Wan Qiu.

Wan Qiu put down his hand.

Yang Xiaoyu, who was always noisy, fell silent the moment Wan Qiu put down his hand.

"Mom." Wan Qiu murmured, tentatively trying to comfort Yang Xiaoyu, "I really don't feel any pain at all."

"Sorry, baby, mommy is not with you now." Yang Xiaoyu's voice came from the other side of the video.

Wan Qiu heard the sobbing.

If Wan Qiu was by Yang Xiaoyu's side now, Yang Xiaoyu could hug Wan Qiu and kiss his wound.

You can help Wan Qiu get justice and make those who hurt Wan Qiu pay the price.

But she is abroad now.

Not being able to meet Wan Qiu made Yang Xiaoyu angry and anxious, with red eyes.

Yang Xiaoyu was so angry that she cried because she couldn't do anything now.

"Mom will be back soon, baby, wait for mom."

"I'm sorry baby, mommy is not with you right now."

"Damn it, mom won't let the person who bullied you go, she definitely won't."

Yang Xiaoyu was overwhelmed with emotions and was completely unable to control his anger and anxiety.

"No...it's okay mom, it doesn't hurt."

When Wan Qiu saw Yang Xiaoyu's red eyes, he was instantly at a loss.

Wan Qiu let go of Chu Yigui's hand and held the phone in both hands, as if trying to touch Yang Xiaoyu.

Standing up, Wan Qiu paced anxiously in the bedroom, trying to comfort her, but his poor language and blank mind could only bring him anxiety.

"Mom, it's okay. It doesn't hurt."

"Mom, I...I hit that guy, I...I hit him...I fought back."

After hearing Wan Qiu say this, Yang Xiaoyu managed to calm down and asked through gritted teeth: "Good fight, where did you hit?"

"I got hit in the stomach. My second brother taught me that. It seems... the hit was a bit serious."

As Wan Qiu spoke, he began to feel a little guilty.

"Well done!" Yang Xiaoyu finally heard something comforting. "What else? Just one hit?"

Wan Qiu vaguely realized that Yang Xiaoyu seemed to want to hit him more severely.

Wan Qiu was a little confused.

"He just hit me once, but I vomited and he was sent to the school hospital. I didn't expect it to be so serious..."

"If he dared to hit me, he should have expected to be beaten. He deserved it. Good job. If anyone dares to cause trouble for you, beat him like this in the future. Honey, go ahead and hit me. Mom will cover you if anything goes wrong!"

Wan Qiu was stunned after listening to this.

Yang Xiaoyu was happy to hear that Wan Qiu didn't suffer too much and finally didn't get so angry that she cried.

Wan Qiu also breathed a sigh of relief.

Yang Xiaoyu refused to hang up the phone, so Wan Qiu could only hold the phone until it ran out of battery.

While holding the phone to find a charger, he also saw Chu Yigui next to Wan Qiu.

"Yigui." Yang Xiaoyu called Chu Yigui's name.

Chu Yigui stood up and walked to Wan Qiu's side.

Wan Qiu's charger was at the bedside, so he lay down on the bed and sat on the soft carpet.

Chu Yigui half-knelt behind Wan Qiu and appeared in the camera.

Yang Xiaoyu opened his mouth when he saw Chu Yigui.

Finally she sighed softly.

"Yigui, this is not your fault." Yang Xiaoyu only said this to Chu Yigui.

Even though Chu Yigui didn't say a single word from beginning to end.

Chu Yigui's expression still did not reveal much.

But he said.

——Thank you, Aunt Yang.

Until the video was hung up, Chu Yigui did not leave Wan Qiu's side.

When Wan Qiu wanted to stand up, he inevitably leaned on Chu Yigui and was unable to stand up.

Wan Qiu turned his head to look at Chu Yigui.

Chu Yigui's arm went around the back of Wan Qiu's neck, and his fingers lightly hovered over the corners of Wan Qiu's eyes.

Wan Qiu looked at him.

As if possessed by some mysterious force, Wan Qiu suddenly leaned back and leaned his whole body on Chu Yigui's chest.

He turned his head and rested it on Chu Yigui's neck.

In fact, they are rarely so overly intimate.

It's more about just relying on and holding hands.

But now, Wan Qiu didn't know why.

Just wanted to do this.

Somehow, he felt that this would be better.

Wan Qiu felt Chu Yigui hugging him from behind.

Wan Qiu blinked and felt that this hug seemed tighter than usual.

As expected, Chu Yigui wanted to hug me like this, right?

Wan Qiu thought so.

It was already afternoon when Chu Jianshu came back. He took the initiative to go to Wan Qiu's bedroom to find Wan Qiu.

Chu Jianshu rarely enters his children's bedrooms. He always respects their privacy.

When Wan Qiu saw the tall Chu Jianshu appear in his room, he felt a subtle sense of out of place.

Wanqiu's room has a somewhat inconsistent style because everyone wants to add some cute decorations.

Chu Jianshu looked too serious, so serious that he seemed to be separated from the background.

Wan Qiu stood in front of Chu Jianshu, full of nervousness.

He looked exactly like a child who had done something wrong.

Chu Jianshu stretched out his hand and lifted Wan Qiu's face, carefully looking at Wan Qiu's injuries.

"You..." Chu Jianshu just opened his mouth and saw Wan Qiu's eyelashes trembling with nervousness. He sighed silently, "Well done."

Wan Qiu suddenly raised his eyes.

There was still some lingering anxiety in that intact eye.

"You helped your classmates and punished others. The only bad thing is that you got hurt. Next time..."

Even though Chu Jianshu didn't want Wan Qiu to get hurt again, he couldn't deny Wan Qiu in this matter.

"You must help others only when you can keep yourself safe."

Wan Qiu blinked.

Chu Jianshu was silent for two seconds and said, "Dad is proud of you."

Wan Qiu was understood by everyone.

No one he cared about punished him.

Wan Qiu realized that he had done something right and would be praised.

"Rest at home for a week. Let Yigui teach you. Go back to school when you feel better. Don't worry about school matters. I will take care of it."

Chu Jianshu's voice once again turned into a steady, businesslike tone.

Wan Qiu nodded.

"Do you want any reward?" Chu Jianshu suddenly asked.

Wan Qiu was stunned for a moment: "What reward?"

Chu Jianshu thought of what the head teacher had said to him at that time, and said, "You did a good thing, you deserve a reward, I can give you a reward."

Wan Qiu shook his head.

"Don't you want it?" Chu Jianshu asked.

"I haven't thought about it." Wan Qiu murmured.

"Oh, let me think about it." Chu Jianshu touched Wan Qiu's hair, but his hand paused and finally put it down.

"Dad?" Wan Qiu looked at Chu Jianshu's lowered hand and noticed the subtle change in Chu Jianshu's mood.

"You're already grown up, I can't treat you like this anymore." Chu Jianshu said.

I still remember the day when Wan Qiu came to him to compare heights on his birthday.

The child is already very tall.

Chu Jianshu said: "Then take a rest. You don't have to force yourself to study today because you are injured."

After Chu Jianshu said this, he turned around and wanted to leave.

But suddenly Chu Jianshu had his sleeve pulled.

Chu Jianshu paused, turned around and looked at Wan Qiu.

He looked at Wan Qiu and asked what was the matter.

Wan Qiu held Chu Jianshu's hand tightly and did not let go. Chu Jianshu slightly supported the strength in his hand.

Not only did Wan Qiu not let go, he also held Chu Jianshu's hand.

The boy's thin fingers did not have much strength, so Chu Jianshu took the initiative to follow Wan Qiu's movements.

Wan Qiu lowered his head and placed his hands on his head.

Wan Qiu's bright eyes looked at him secretly.

Then she rubbed his palm.

Chu Jianshu's fingers stiffened.

The feeling of soft hair in the palm of your hand does not just stay in the palm of your hand.

Instead, it was unbridled and penetrated into Chu Jianshu's heart like the omnipresent temperature.

Chu Jianshu hesitated and rubbed Wanqiu's hair carefully.

Wan Qiu narrowed his eyes.

Then Wan Qiu raised his eyes, and his intact eye stared at him intently.

Chu Jianshu felt that his child might have seen through something about him.

In his heart, doesn't he want to see his child grow up to the point where he can no longer touch him?

If not...

I can't explain my good mood now.

"Ah." Chu Jianshu couldn't help but sigh, but it was more of a sigh of helplessness as if he had been seen through. "Dad knows."

When Chu Jianshu put down his hand, Wan Qiu raised his head.

The child has grown taller, but Chu Jianshu is still dazed.

In the eyes of parents, children are always children no matter how old they are.

At this moment, Chu Jianshu experienced this feeling personally and understood the meaning of this sentence.
