Chapter 6 Protect Him

Shen Jize just stood in the middle of the crowd without saying a word, but at this moment, he saw that familiar face. In just a second, he lowered his head and pulled the black baseball cap on his head, trying to cover his entire face.

But it was obviously of no avail. By the time Wen Eryu saw his face clearly, she had already squeezed into the crowd and rushed to his side.

"Are you okay?" she asked.

Shen Jize turned his back to her and said in a low voice, "It's okay."

"Do you need my help?" Although Shen Jize was a very annoying person in his previous life, Wen Eryu hated to see anyone being bullied.

He immediately refused: "No need."

Wen Eryu curled his lips: "Oh, okay."

Seeing this, the middle-aged man beside him grabbed Wen Eryu's arm and asked, "Do you know him?"

But before the man could finish his words, his hands were forcefully pried apart by Shen Jize. In an instant, the wrinkles on his fat face twisted together, and his dry lips opened and closed, but he couldn't speak.

Wen Eryu took the opportunity to step hard on the man. She felt as if the arm touched by the man was crawling over by countless slugs, which was extremely disgusting.

"It hurts, it hurts." Hu Nao was still sick and couldn't muster any strength to break free from the boy.

Shen Jize glared at him, his voice filled with anger: "Who asked you to touch her?"

"What's wrong with me touching her?" Hu Nao was still stubborn, "Could it be that you like her?"

Shen Jize calmly intensified his hand movements.

Hu Nao's screams instantly echoed at the door of the inpatient department.

"I'm your father!" Hu Nao tried to use this excuse to make Shen Jize let go.

But Shen Jize didn't buy it at all.

At this time, the hospital security guard rushed over. He separated the two and warned: "This is a hospital, not a street where you can't just fight. If you want to continue the quarrel, go to the police station."

When Hu Nao heard the word "police station", he instantly became quiet. He was a "regular" in the police station. The last time he was released, he promised the police that he would not cause trouble again. He couldn't go to jail again because of this kid.

He rolled his eyes and said with a wry smile, "No, no, no, it's been a while since we last met, father and son, so we just want to catch up."

The security guard dispersed the crowd and scolded them, "Don't linger at the entrance of the inpatient department. Leave quickly."

"Okay, thank you, big brother." Hu Nao bowed flatteringly, took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to the security guard.

But the security guard took a look and saw that the cigarettes were of a fake brand, so he ignored him and turned away.

"Fuck, why are you pretending to be so noble in front of me!" Hu Nao cursed inwardly in anger.

Wen Eryu didn't want to stay here for long, so she tugged at Chen Jize's sleeve and walked towards the exit.

But how could Hu Nao let them go? He chased after them in big strides.

"Fuck you, hurry up and get enough money for my hospital bill, or I'll be kicked out tomorrow."

However, no one paid any attention to him.

Wen Eryu stopped and turned around and said, "Don't call yourself Laozi all the time. It's like flattering yourself. If you are Laozi, then who am I, Confucius? Now that you know this son is useful, what were you doing before?"

Hu Nao: “…”

He was speechless after being confronted by Wen Eryu.

Wen Eryu: "I tell you, Shen Jize is not your son, and he won't give you a penny. If you bother him again, don't blame me for being rude."

Coincidentally, the driver didn't wait for Wen Eryu and the others until they came over.

The Wen family's drivers were all specially trained, and each of them had a muscular body. Their burly figures made Hu Nao take several steps back.

"Tsk, you coward." Wen Eryu rolled her eyes and pulled Shen Jize away.

When they arrived at the parking lot, Wen Eryu asked Aunt Zhao to get in the car and wait for a while, as she and Shen Jize still had something to say.

Aunt Zhao gave her an understanding look and got into the car.

The parking lot wasn't crowded. Wen Eryu coughed a few times and said, "Where do you live? I'll have the driver take you back."

Shen Jize: "Why?"

"Ah?" Wen Eryu asked in confusion.

He asked in a cold voice: "Why are you helping me?"

"..." Yes, why should she help him? She could obviously just choose to ignore him and walk away, but it seemed that every time she met Chen Jize, her eyes were all on him.

Wen Eryu himself didn't understand.

After a long while, she finally spoke in a low voice: "Because he scolded you."

Shen Jize: "Hmm?"

Wen Eryu stamped her foot in anger and spoke up for him: "Because he called you a bastard."

“…”

"But you are not a bastard. You are a rising star in the future business world. You have a bright future, although I haven't figured out the current situation yet." Wen Eryu paused, "But you are you, you are Shen Ji Ze."

Shen Jize's heart seemed to be hit by an asteroid, and the huge shock wave made him breathless.

He didn't know how to start speaking, or perhaps he had already forgotten how to speak. In the long eighteen years of darkness, there had never been a person like Wen Eryu who stood by him so firmly, defended him, and stood up for him.

The seed of secret love that had already sprouted in my heart was now illuminated by the sunlight, and it was desperately and wantonly breaking through my heart and growing upwards.

After a long while, he regained consciousness and said, "How... did you know?"

Wen Eryu realized that he had said something he shouldn't have said, and immediately covered his mouth and shook his head: "No, no, I don't know anything."

Shen Jize's eyes darkened: "...Hmm?"

Wen Er opened the door and got in the car, laughing awkwardly: "Then I'll be leaving first, bye."

She originally wanted to send Shen Jize back, but she had already aroused his suspicion. If she let him get in the car again, he might ask her questions.

So, before Shen Jize could respond, the car door had already closed and disappeared at the hospital gate.

Because Wen Eryu missed the monthly exam last week, Yao Weimin kept the students from several of his classes who did not take the exam after school.

Among them, there was also Chen Jize, which was something Wen Eryu had not expected.

Suddenly she suddenly remembered that Shen Ji Ze seemed to be in the hospital that day and he also missed the exam.

However, the monthly exam was easy for Shen Jize. His academic performance was among the top three in the school, and it was common for him to get first place. He was not only handsome, but also had good grades. There were many girls in his grade who liked him.

"Can I sit here?" Shen Jize walked to Wen Eryu's side without knowing when.

"Ah?" Wen Eryu looked around and pointed at herself. She suspected that she had heard it wrong.

But there were only ten people in the classroom, including the two of them, and there were many empty seats nearby. Why did Shen Jize insist on sitting next to her?

Wen Eryu couldn't understand it, but when she was about to refuse, Yao Weimin walked in.

He saw Shen Ji Ze still standing and asked, "Why are you still standing? Find a place to sit down."

Shen Jize nodded, as if he had received permission, and sat down next to Wen Eryu neatly.

Wen Eryu’s inner thoughts: If it weren’t for you, big brother… why are you pestering me?

She coughed awkwardly and moved her chair away, trying to distance herself from him.

Seeing that everyone was present, Yao Weimin began to speak, "This monthly exam is a joint exam for several key provincial middle schools and our school, so it's very important. You all missed out that day due to some matters, so the school leaders have discussed it and will arrange a make-up exam for you in three days."

"Ah, teacher, my test results will only drag down the school, so I might as well not take the test." Li Wei said while shaking his legs in his basketball uniform.

"Shut up," Yao Weimin said in feigned anger. "You can't escape the exam sooner or later, so just put away those little tricks."

Li Wei held the basketball in his arms and shouted in despair: "The sky is falling, and I still can't escape it."

Wen Eryu couldn't help laughing out loud.

Yao Weimin adjusted his glasses and looked towards her. Wen Eryu immediately shut up and pretended nothing had happened.

"This classroom will be dedicated to your review after school for the next three days. Forty minutes a day will definitely help improve your grades." Yao Weimin fixed his gaze on Shen Jize. "If you students who are taking the make-up exams have any questions, you can ask Shen Jize for help."

"Okay, I won't say any more. Please keep quiet in the classroom. I'll be in the office."

The students replied sparsely: "Okay, teacher."

After Yao Weimin left, Wen Eryu stood up and sat in an empty seat in the next row.

This time Shen Jize did not follow him, but concentrated on writing the math test in front of him.

Li Wei took the opportunity to sit next to him and poked him with a basketball: "Chen Jize, why don't we sneak out and play basketball now."

However, Shen Ji Ze refused: "No."

Seeing that he was turned away, Li Wei turned his attention to Wen Eryu.

He turned around and whistled at Wen Eryu: "Hey, classmate, which class are you in?"

But the next second, he was kicked to the ground by a force from behind.

Shen Jize said seriously: "Sorry, I just slipped."

Li Wei was speechless, his silence was deafening.

Wen Eryu pinched her thigh hard to prevent herself from laughing out loud.

Li Wei got up from the ground in a panic and patted the dust off his trouser legs: "Laugh if you want to."

At this moment, Li Wei suddenly remembered that he seemed to have seen Wen Eryu somewhere.

He slapped his head suddenly. Isn't the photo on the interlayer of Shen Jize's school badge the girl?

So that's how it is. That makes sense. Everything is explained. No wonder Shen Jize wanted to kick him just now.

It seems that Shen Jize is jealous!

"You, you are not..." Before Li Wei could finish his words, Shen Jize gave him a glare.

He was so frightened that he stopped what he was about to say: "I have to go home quickly, my grandma is about to give birth to my dad."

After saying that, Li Weiren disappeared.

Shen Jize glanced at Wen Eryu: "He had a fever when he was a child, and he's not feeling well there."

Wen Eryu gave him a look that said "I understand".

At this time, someone came to the door. She looked out the window for a while, saw Shen Jize behind him, and walked in from the back door.

An Xinqing walked to Shen Jize with her hair loose and perfume sprayed on.

When she saw Wen Eryu there, her face darkened instantly, but she still forced a smile and tugged at Shen Jize's sleeve, deliberately speaking loudly to Wen Eryu: "When are you leaving? Come to my house today. My dad wants to see you."
