Chapter 168 Family Bankruptcy (5)
5
It is Song Huaishu.
The person holding roses and blocking the dormitory downstairs was Song Huaishu.
Yu Bai was startled and turned to leave, but was still seen by Song Huaishu.
Song Huaishu's eyes sparkled with surprise, and he immediately shouted, "Yu Bai!"
Yu Bai ignored him and walked back quickly: "Teacher Zhu, big brother!"
Help me!
Zhu Qingchen and Yu Xingzhou heard him shouting and asked, "What's wrong?"
At this time, the crowd automatically made way for him, and Song Huaishu squeezed next to Yu Bai with the flowers in his arms.
Song Huaishu smiled and called out again: "Xiaobai, I thought you were in the dormitory."
Yu Bai quickly walked to Teacher Zhu, stood behind him, and looked at him warily.
Seeing Zhu Qingchen and Yu Xingzhou there, Song Huaishu stopped and the smile on his face froze for a moment.
Why are they here too?
Zhu Qingchen looked up.
Song Huaishu knew very well that Yu Bai liked his appearance as a poor student with a lot of backbone.
So he specially wore a neatly ironed white shirt today, had his hair cut, and wore black-framed glasses, which he didn't wear normally but only in class. He looked gentle and polite.
It seems that he is well prepared this time and is determined to defeat Yu Bai.
Yu Bai knew that he might not be firm, so he turned his head away and stood behind the teacher and the elder brother, not looking at him.
Song Huaishu adjusted his expression, holding the bouquet, and walked forward: "Teacher Zhu, President Yu, I'm here to look for Yu Bai, can I trouble you..."
Before he finished speaking, Yu Bai said, "No!"
Of course not!
Yu Bai tightly grasped the sleeves of his teacher and elder brother, and put their hands together to protect himself.
Song Huaishu choked. What should he do?
He had been planning for so long and had even attracted so many people just to take down Yu Bai in one fell swoop today.
Now Yu Bai is hiding behind these two people. He can't let these two people pass the message, right?
The main person didn't say anything, and for a moment, the students who were watching fell silent, and the originally heated scene became a little awkward.
Some people couldn't read the atmosphere and tried to make some noise, but were slapped back by the people next to them and were suppressed.
Song Huaishu couldn't help complaining in his heart. Didn't the TV series and novels say that these people would help shout "get together"? Why was there no sound?
How could he know that college students are not fools.
If they were a young couple who were just about to get married, they would definitely join in the fun, but this couple...
Yu Bai hid when he saw him, as he knew something was wrong.
So they quickly and quietly slipped away, but if they were standing in the front row and couldn't slip away, they would just stand there with their toes gripping the ground.
It's so embarrassing. If I had known I wouldn't have come to join in the fun.
While Song Huaishu was thinking about countermeasures, Zhu Qingchen turned around and whispered to Yu Bai: "Don't you have a lot of friends? Let them come over."
"Ah?" Yu Bai was shocked. "Teacher, is it allowed to fight in school?"
Zhu Qingchen was helpless: "Who told you to call people to fight? Let them blend into the crowd and help you guide the public opinion."
"Oh oh." Yu Bai suddenly realized and quickly took out his mobile phone to send a message to his good friend.
Zhu Qingchen turned back and said to Song Huaishu: "If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't waste everyone's time."
There is no other way. If Song Huaishu doesn't seize this opportunity, he will never have another chance.
He lowered his head and tightened his grip on the bouquet. He decided to go all out and knelt on one knee in front of Yu Bai with a plop.
But because he didn't control the strength well, he almost fell forward.
Yu Xingzhou pulled Zhu Qingchen and moved to the side.
Yu Bai, who was still sending messages to people, raised his head with a dazed look on his face.
What is he doing?
Song Huaishu ignored Yu Bai's strange expression, brewed his emotions, and looked at him affectionately: "Yu Bai, I have thought a lot these days. I have thought carefully about what kind of person I am, what kind of person you are, and the relationship between the two of us."
The street lights flickered, and Yu Bai wanted to interrupt him, but failed.
"Please listen to what I have to say first."
"Yu Bai, you are an optimistic, generous, kind and brave boy, but I am not. I still remember that you always brought me breakfast, saved a seat for me, and encouraged me to apply for a scholarship, but I..."
"I am a poor student from a poor family. I spent the first ten years of my life studying. I have a very low self-esteem, so when faced with your love, I shamefully chose to back off."
"It's not that I don't like you, nor do I hate you. I just subconsciously feel inferior in front of you. I don't want to slander you. I just feel that we are from two different worlds and I am not worthy of you."
"I accidentally hurt you last time. After I went back, I couldn't sleep every night. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw you hurt. It was not until this time that I finally realized that I really liked you."
"True love can't be avoided, so I decided to face you bravely."
Song Huaishu was staggering and could hardly kneel steadily.
He picked up the bouquet of roses and handed it to Yu Bai: "You have been chasing me for so long, this time it's my turn to chase you, I hope you can give me a chance."
To be fair, what Song Huaishu said was indeed good, sincere and natural.
If his students claim to be able to reach this level, maybe he can actually get a scholarship.
Yu Bai grabbed his sleeves, took a half step back, and looked at his teacher and elder brother for help.
He didn't know how to refute and was even a little shaken.
Song Huaishu held the flowers and waited for an answer.
In the silence, Zhu Qingchen suddenly asked a question that ruined the mood: "When are you going to pay back Xiaobai's medical expenses?"
Song Huaishu paused for a moment, then quickly said: "Teacher Zhu, rest assured, I will definitely take responsibility and pay for Xiaobai's medical expenses. I came here this time just to express my feelings to Xiaobai."
Yu Bai hurriedly wanted to send him away: "Then you can go back first. When you have paid the medical bills, come back to see me."
Zhu Qingchen burst out laughing.
Silly boy, you can't say that.
What should he do if Song Huaishu comes to harass him from time to time under the pretext of paying back the money?
Doesn’t this create opportunities for the other side?
Zhu Qingchen held Yu Bai down and said to Song Huaishu, "Just transfer the money to the lawyer and don't contact Yu Bai again. You just said that you wanted to express your feelings to Yu Bai?"
"Yes." Finally getting back to the topic, Song Huaishu breathed a sigh of relief, "I do like Yu Bai. I didn't know my heart clearly before, but I won't do that now. I will pursue Yu Bai openly now!"
Zhu Qingchen asked calmly, "So, you simply attributed your previous ridicule, insults, cold violence, and pushing and shoving of Yu Bai to the fact that you didn't know your own heart?"
Every time Zhu Qingchen uttered those sharp words, Song Huaishu's face became more gloomy.
Song Huaishu wanted to explain, so Zhu Qingchen turned to Yu Bai and asked, "Do you agree?"
With Teacher Zhu's reminder, Yu Bai finally reacted and said seriously, "I disagree! Song Huaishu, you are obviously trying to change the concept. Do you need me to repeat what you did?"
"I brought you breakfast, but you never ate it. I went to the restaurant where you worked to wait for you and ordered food for you so that you could have dinner after work, but you left without even looking back and scolded me for not respecting you."
"I encouraged you to apply for a scholarship, and you said I was insulting you and playing a game with you; you didn't get the scholarship, and you said I was insulting you and deliberately not letting you get selected."
"You grabbed my shoulders and called me names like a gorilla, your pores..."
Zhu Qingchen touched his arm and said, "Don't talk about such unimportant things."
Yu Bai continued, "I explained to you, but you didn't believe me. You pushed me onto the rockery, causing a large wound on my forehead that required more than a dozen stitches."
"When I was put in the ambulance and taken to the hospital, you never came to see me and never paid for my medical expenses. You come to me now just because you don't want to pay!"
Zhu Qingchen gently pushed Yu Bai, and Yu Bai understood. She lifted her hair and showed the wound on her forehead to the onlookers nearby.
"Everyone, please look, this is the reason why Song Huaishu must pursue me! He still owes me 3,000 yuan for medical expenses and mental damages!"
Oh boy, so that’s how it is!
Song Huaishu hastily defended himself: "Xiaobai, I admit that I was not good before and I did not know how to love. You can beat me, scold me, and do whatever you want to me, but you can't deny me completely! I really like you!"
Yu Bai let down his hair and turned back: "It was me who pursued you before. I spent money, time and energy willingly. I didn't ask you for any compensation. I was stupid, I admit it myself."
"But you can't keep treating me like a fool, can you?"
"If you paid me back and then came to apologize to me, I would still think that you really knew you were wrong, but now you are so poor that you keep dragging your feet and not paying me back. You are just making empty promises. Who can't see what you mean?"
Song Huaishu was forced into a corner and had no choice but to grit his teeth and take out his phone: "If you misunderstand me because of the three thousand yuan, I will transfer the money to the lawyer immediately."
The action of Song Huaishu taking out his mobile phone and unlocking it by entering the password seemed to have been slowed down countless times.
Of course he doesn't have that much money, and even if he did, he wouldn't be willing to spend it.
He was waiting for Yu Bai to stop him.
But Yu Bai not only did not stop him, but also waited coldly for him to transfer the money.
So Song Huaishu took out his cell phone, waved it around, and then put it back.
"Xiao Bai, you know my family is in financial difficulty. Give me three days and I will definitely return the money to you. Let's be fair. You can't doubt my sincerity just because of the money."
Yu Bai asked back: "You could doubt me because of money before, why can't I doubt you because of money? I just treat you the same way you treat me, and you can't stand it? You are still chasing me like this? You obviously want to default on your debt!"
Song Huaishu was speechless.
At this time, the friends that Yu Bai called over also arrived.
The friends disappeared into the crowd and started gossiping.
"What Yu Bai said is true. I was there that day. Song Huaishu was like a madman, saying that Yu Bai deliberately didn't give him a scholarship and even spread rumors about the teacher selection."
"Then he pushed Yu Bai down and asked him to pay for the medical expenses. He suddenly started to 'chase his wife to the crematorium'. His purpose must not be simple. It was obvious that he was 'chasing money to the crematorium'."
"In addition, the school was planning to punish him for slandering the teacher and the school, but he still dared to do these things. Maybe he thought that as long as he could catch up with Yu Bai, all the previous things would be written off. He didn't expect that Yu Bai would lose his 'love brain'."
Song Huaishu didn't expect things to turn out like this. When he heard the discussions of the onlookers he attracted, he could no longer kneel down.
He supported himself against the wall, stood up from the ground, turned around, and asked in a low voice: "Yu Bai, do you really have to do this?"
Yu Bai opened his eyes wide and shouted loudly: "Look everyone, he is threatening me!"
"You..." Song Huaishu was angry, "That's not what I meant."
Song Huaishu gritted his teeth and blushed: "Yu Bai, I know you are still angry, just push me back. Don't be angry, I know you still like me, really, as long as you nod, we will be together right away..."
He stretched out his hand and tried to pull Yu Bai, but Yu Bai dodged him.
"Go away, who wants to be with you? Pack your things right now and get out of here, and don't bother me again!"
"Yu Bai, there should be some limits to your temper."
"Who is angry with you? You were the first one who wanted to renege on your debt, and you were the first one to attract a large group of people. You want to turn the tables now? No way!"
"I know you like me. There have been a lot of things going on recently and I'm really tired. Please stop making trouble and let's be together. Don't worry, I won't let go of your hand again..."
"Don't pretend!" Yu Bai said hurriedly, "What do your problems have to do with me? You caused the trouble yourself, you made up rumors and slandered me, it has nothing to do with me!"
"Yu Bai, I really..."
It seemed that the two of them were no longer able to argue with each other.
At this time, Zhu Qingchen cleared his throat and stepped forward: "Okay."
Yu Bai quickly ran back to the teacher.
Song Huaishu said: "Teacher, this is a relationship problem between Yu Bai and me, you..."
"He has clearly expressed that he doesn't like you and doesn't want to have any contact with you. Don't you understand?" Zhu Qingchen said seriously, "This is a harassment issue, not an emotional issue. As a teacher, it is my responsibility to temporarily handle this matter before your counselor gets here."
Song Huaishu was speechless.
Zhu Qingchen said, "Song Huaishu, I originally thought that you were a student with excellent grades and good character, but I didn't expect that you would make such a fuss just for a scholarship."
"You first doubted the unfairness of the scholarship, slandered the teacher and classmates, then pushed your classmate down, and now you confessed to the injured classmate."
"The school gave you face, and the Yu family also gave you face by not making this matter public. They just reconciled with you privately and let the school punish you. But what about you? What did you do?"
"Ask yourself, do you want to be with Yu Bai because you like him, or do you want to be with him because you want to cover up this matter and avoid paying the medical bills?"
"Don't treat Yu Bai as a fool, and don't treat everyone else as fools. Can't we see that?"
that is.
The students watching agreed with this, they were not stupid.
Zhu Qingchen added: "If your family is really in financial difficulty, you can tell your counselor and ask him to help you apply for a scholarship or poverty subsidy. You can also negotiate with the Yu family and pay back some of the medical expenses every month."
"But what did you do? You actually wanted to be with Yu Bai and then settle the debt?"
"Song Huaishu, you don't even have the concept of 'following the rules' in your mind. Why are you always able to distort things to a degree that others can't even imagine?"
"The last time I talked to you, I specifically reminded you that this way of thinking is not good, but unfortunately, you didn't listen at all."
Isn't it just putting the blame on someone else? Zhu Qingchen can do that too.
Song Huaishu stood there in a daze, not knowing what to say.
At this time, Zhu Qingchen turned around and said to the students who were watching: "Okay, everyone, go away and don't gather here anymore."
Only after he had finished speaking did he let the students disperse.
The students moved slowly and reluctantly, preparing to leave.
Holding the phone in his hand, he tapped the keyboard.
I’m afraid it won’t be long before Song Huaishu’s affairs spread throughout the entire school.
Seeing Song Huaishu's indignation, Zhu Qingchen said calmly, "You don't have to think that I'm targeting you. Think about it yourself. Who attracted these people? Who was acting in this drama from beginning to end?"
"It's you, not me, nor Yu Bai. You should know clearly whether someone is targeting you or you yourself have made things like this step by step."
At this time, Song Huaishu's counselor and school leaders also came over.
It was Song Huaishu again, and the teachers and leaders were all a little helpless.
The group took Song Huaishu back to the office. Of course, Song Huaishu refused to tell the real reason and only said that it was to confess his feelings.
He is still treating his school teachers as fools.
But he refused to admit it, and the teacher could not force him to admit it, so he could only give him ideological education.
Now that things have gotten to this point and a lot of students know about it, the school has decided to issue a notice to explain the whole story to prevent anyone from spreading rumors and causing panic.
As Song Huaishu wished, now everyone knows what he has done.
Song Huaishu walked out of the office in a daze, raised the rose in his hand high, and threw it into the trash can.
A loud "bang" startled Yu Bai and Zhu Qingchen who were about to leave.
Is he going crazy again?
Zhu Qingchen was about to call the counselor out to educate him again, but Yu Xingzhou shook his hand and said, "It's no use educating him again. Wait for me for a while."
Zhu Qingchen and Yu Bai stood there, watching Yu Xingzhou unbutton his shirt cuffs, roll up his sleeves, and walk towards Song Huaishu with a strong aura.
Song Huaishu was frightened and stepped back.
Yu Xingzhou walked up to him, grabbed his collar, and lifted him up from the ground like a bag of garbage.
Song Huaishu was still stubborn: "Young Master Yu, this is a school, you dare to hit me in school?"
Yu Xingzhou pressed him against the lid of the trash can. Song Huaishu struggled hard, but it was useless.
"You should be thankful that this is a school and that Teacher Zhu is still willing to reason with you. Repeat what Teacher Zhu just said."
"I……"
"Teacher Zhu has shown mercy to you. If it were me, you would have been expelled. This is called targeting."
Song Huaishu was horrified. He had worked so hard to get into university, so how could this person be so powerful?
"You'd better stay away from Teacher Zhu and Yu Bai and study hard. If you do such messy things again, it will not be as simple as punishment."
"Don't you like to scold Yu Bai for playing rich people's games? Just think about it, what methods will a rich and powerful family use to deal with you and your sick father?"
Yu Xingzhou let him go, and Song Huaishu's legs went limp. He clung to the trash can tightly and managed to stand firmly.
Yu Xingzhou walked back to Zhu Qingchen and said, "Let's go."
Zhu Qingchen asked: "What did you tell him?"
"Nothing." Yu Xingzhou said innocently, "Just a friendly reminder and good wishes."
Zhu Qingchen frowned: "Reminder? Wish?"
Yu Xingzhou remained calm and said, "Remind him to be careful of cars when walking on the road. I wish him a smooth graduation and a safe life."
Yu Bai whispered, "Brother, our family is not that kind of family. Isn't what you said too scary?"
"Otherwise he would never stop pestering Teacher Zhu." Yu Xingzhou glanced at his watch, "Your dormitory will be closed soon, why don't you go back quickly?"
Yu Bai quickened his pace and ran back to the dormitory.
Zhu Qingchen felt relieved only after seeing him go upstairs safely.
Yu Xingzhou said: "Song Huaishu probably won't dare to come again."
"Yeah." Zhu Qingchen nodded.
Yu Xingzhou raised his hand again and glanced at his watch: "Oh no, Zhu Qingqing, the door will be closed soon."
Zhu Qingchen was puzzled: "I live in a teacher's apartment, and there is no access control in the teacher's apartment."
"I mean me." Yu Xingzhou said seriously, "I have access control."
"You live in your own house, not even with Yu's parents, so where does the curfew come from?"
"Yes, my family closes on time at 10 o'clock in the evening. It is now fifty-nine minutes and fifty-eight seconds." Yu Xingzhou stared at his watch and told the time accurately, "Fifty-nine seconds, sixty seconds."
"Zhu Qingqing, I can't go back." Yu Xingzhou put his arm around Zhu Qingchen's shoulders and walked forward. "I can only go to your place. We can stay together tonight."
“…”
Zhu Qingchen slapped him back, but did not object. He took out his cell phone from his pocket and prepared to get some midnight snack.
After the fight just now, he was hungry again.
The two of them walked on the sidewalk in sync, even their steps were exactly the same.
The system and the villain system fell behind, staring at them blankly.
The system asked: "Do you think they are good brothers or a couple?"
The villain system said firmly: "Based on my many years of experience, they must be a couple."
"I've never seen such a strange couple. Others confess their love, hold hands, kiss, go to bed, and get married, but they skipped several steps and just lived together directly."
“That’s what the ancients did.”
"There wasn't such a thing in ancient times, right?"
After returning home, Zhu Qingchen took a quick shower, changed into pajamas, wrapped in a blanket and curled up on the sofa, waiting for the takeaway to be delivered.
Yu Xingzhou was taking a shower inside, while Zhu Qingchen was playing with his phone outside.
As expected, what happened tonight spread among the students.
Zhu Qingchen has a small account and goes undercover in students’ confession walls and groups.
The story of Song Huaishu had spread.
He was bent on covering up these things, but now the situation has only gotten bigger and bigger. It's all his own fault.
As long as he returns the money quietly, stops making trouble, and stays away from Yu Bai, nothing will happen.
Zhu Qingchen took a quick look at the students' comments, and soon the sound of water in the bathroom behind him stopped.
Yu Xingzhou's muffled voice came from inside: "Zhu Qingqing, I don't have pajamas to wear."
Zhu Qingchen jumped up from the sofa and found him a large bathrobe.
Yu Xingzhou was wearing a bathrobe and looking at Zhu Qingchen's pajamas: "Why are you wearing fried egg pajamas?"!
