Chapter 16 Apology
"Of course, they reported me behind my back and beat me up!" Song Ci said.
Chi Jinjin looked him straight in the eye and said, "I've already apologized for hitting you, but there's no need for us to apologize to you for filing a complaint. Bullying your classmates is wrong in the first place. As citizens of this country, we all have the responsibility and obligation to report negative incidents to the relevant platforms! Your bullying of your classmates is a negative incident! Why should we apologize to you?"
"You..." Faced with Chi Jinjin's eloquent words, Song Ci was speechless for a moment.
Chi Jinjin took a step closer to him, her eyes blazing with anger as she questioned him, "Song Ci, do you think bullying girls is prestigious? Do you think uniting the entire school to bully someone is something to brag about?"
"I..." Song Ci had never seen Chi Jinjin so aggressive before. She was completely different from the one he had seen before. He couldn't help but ask, "Did you take the wrong medicine?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Chi Jinjin suddenly bowed to him and said, "I'm sorry!"
Song Ci was even more confused. Before he could react, Chi Jinjin's eyes suddenly changed. He raised his foot and kicked him directly in the abdomen.
Song Ci immediately felt pain, covered his stomach, and collapsed to his knees on the ground.
Ji Yang, who was standing next to him, was so surprised that his eyes seemed to be about to pop out of his eyes.
The basketball fell to the ground and rolled away.
Chi Jinjin grabbed Song Ci by the collar and scolded him fiercely, "Song Ci! I know you are powerful, but this is a society ruled by law. You can't cover up everything. One day, you will pay the price for your current bullying! We will see!"
She loosened Song Ci's collar, and Song Ci still looked shocked.
Chi Jinjin turned around and found that Nan Xuqiu was there too!
The arrogance that had just risen up suddenly disappeared. She lowered her eyes, quickly left the playground and ran towards the infirmary.
"Hahahaha!" Ji Yang laughed loudly and said, "Old Song, didn't we agree to let them kneel down and beg for mercy? Why did you kneel down first?"
"Laugh at your mother!" Song Ci stood up and cursed Ji Yang in anger.
But Ji Yang couldn't help but burst into laughter, and said to Nan Xuqiu in surprise, "Old Nan, look, I never thought that this seemingly soft and sweet schoolmate Xiao Chi would have such a side to her."
Nan Xuqiu took the camera next to him, put it in front of his eyes, closed one eye, and focused the lens on Chi Jinjin's back. She was walking forward quickly with her fists clenched.
The slender index finger slowly pressed the shutter button.
"They are friends. Friends always have some similarities..."
Nan Xuqiu looked down at the photo in the camera and smiled slightly.
After Chi Jinjin turned the corner, she immediately squatted on the ground against the wall.
She covered her head, thinking about what she had just done.
Oh my god! I actually typed Song poetry?
And in front of Nan Xuqiu!
Chi Jinjin suddenly felt extremely regretful. She had been trying to persuade Tang Shi to calm down every day, but she had acted impulsively. And Nan Xuqiu had seen her. What would he think of her? Would he think she was rude and unreasonable?
The more Chi Jinjin thought about it, the more regretful she felt.
Why couldn’t I hold back just now?
Chi Jinjin, you really are...
Chi Jinjin slapped his forehead in regret.
I thought, forget it, I've done it, I might as well just throw it all away. Anyway, I've never appeared in front of him in a glamorous way. Every time I'm in a mess or look stupid, he appears. I guess he doesn't have a good impression of me anymore.
Chi Jinjin stood up, sighed, and continued walking towards the infirmary.
After paying the bill, Chi Jinjin returned to the ward. Tang Shi had already fallen asleep. She took the small fan next to her and gently fanned her wound...
"That woman looks so delicate and weak, but when she kicks you it really hurts." Song Ci lay on the sofa and rubbed his abdomen.
Ji Yang laughed and said, "You can't blame them this time. I've already inquired. It was a few boys in the senior year who tried to strip Tang Shi's clothes and humiliate her, and even hurt her. Xiao Chi and Tang are such good friends, anyone would be angry, and you just happened to be caught in the crossfire."
"Is she sick? They were the ones who wanted to strip that woman's clothes, not me. Why did she kick me?" Song Ci couldn't understand and said angrily.
Nan Xuqiu read the book and said slowly, "You didn't kill Bo Ren, but Bo Ren died because of you."
Song Ci frowned, "What do you mean?"
Ji Yang said, "What Lao Nan meant is that even if you didn't do it, they did it to Tang Xuemei because they wanted your money. I say, why don't we just stop?"
"Stop? No, if I stop, what prestige will I have?" Song Ci said stubbornly.
Ji Yang looked at Nan Xuqiu and shook his head helplessly.
At night, Yizhishishu sent a message to Tangshi: {What's wrong with you? You seem to be in a bad mood today?}
Tang Shi angrily replied: "Didn't I tell you last time that I beat up a boy in our school? He has some influence in our school and instigated others to bully me. What do you think I should do?"
A piece of poetry: {Give someone a taste of their own medicine. I'll give you a way. If he lets someone throw dirty water on you, then you should throw garbage on him.}
Tang Shi felt that what the poem said made sense. He couldn't always be bullied. Every grievance has its perpetrator, and everything was caused by him, so he would take revenge on him!
"Song Gouci, just wait." Tang Shi smiled cunningly.
Song Ci suddenly sneezed loudly and rubbed his nose subconsciously.
At this time, the door of the private room was opened and several boys in school uniforms fell in.
When they saw Song Ci, they quickly knelt down.
Several men in short-sleeved shirts then walked out from behind the door, each with exaggerated tattoos on their arms.
"Brother Song, I've brought the person to you." said the man.
Song Ci nodded and motioned them to go out first.
"Brother Song, we, we didn't do anything, why are you arresting us?" Several boys looked at Song Ci in confusion.
Song Ci got up from the sofa, walked up to the group, and said, "Who told you to take off Tang's clothes?"
"Brother Song, we also hope that you can be happy..." the boy replied nervously.
"Happy?" Song Ci hit their heads hard a few times and said unhappily, "Happy your mother! I want that woman to kneel down and beg for mercy, but I didn't ask you to strip her clothes and do such shameless and despicable things!"
"Brother Song, we know we were wrong. Brother Song, please spare our lives." Several boys lay on the ground, trembling, and begged quickly.
Song Ci was extremely angry.
"Tell everyone in the school that I don't want to hear such a thing a second time. If anyone dares to get killed, I will be the first to kill you." Song Ci pointed at them and warned them fiercely.
The people on the ground nodded repeatedly.
"Get out of here!" Song Ci kicked them out one by one.
Ever since Chi Jinjin beat Song Ci, she didn't dare to leave the classroom, for fear of meeting him.
But sometimes, the person you least want to see is the one you happen to meet.
Chi Jinjin saw Ji Yang and Song Ci coming from a distance.
Chi Jinjin quickly raised the book in her hand in front of her eyes to cover her face, then hurried upstairs.
I didn't expect that I was walking too fast and accidentally bumped into someone's chest at the corner.
Chi Jinjin looked up and saw that it was Nan Xuqiu.
"I'm sorry, senior!" Chi Jinjin quickly apologized.
Nan Xuqiu smiled slightly and said, "It's okay."
Worried that Song Ci would come, Chi Jinjin had to say anxiously, "Well, I have something to do. I'll leave first."
As she said this, she hurriedly ran past Nan Xuqiu and went upstairs in a hurry back to the classroom.
Song Ci and Ji Yang were walking towards the teaching building, but unexpectedly, the next moment, a bucket of garbage suddenly fell down.
Fortunately, Ji Yang dodged quickly and was almost caught.
Song Ci looked up and saw Tang Shi standing by the guardrail with a trash can.
"Are you crazy?" Song Ci yelled angrily at Tang Shi upstairs.
Tang Shi fearlessly raised his middle finger at him in disdain.
Song Ci was so angry that he was fuming.
Ji Yang covered his mouth and laughed secretly with glee.
The high school entrance examination arrived as scheduled. Outside the window, heat waves came one after another. Even the dense leaves could not block the penetration of the scorching sun.
Chi Jinjin lowered her head and wrote the test paper carefully.
A week later, the scoreboard was crowded with people.
Although it is just a junior high school entrance exam, I feel as nervous as I do before the college entrance exam in No. 1 High School.
Chi Jinjin and Tang Shi waited for a long time before they came to the list.
But Chi Jinjin's gaze was not looking for herself, but fell directly on the second grade area, and Nan Xuqiu's name was still the first.
Speaking of the second-year high school students, the ones with the most stable grades are Nan Xuqiu, Ji Yang and Song Ci.
Seeing Nan Xuqiu's name, Chi Jinjin smiled slightly, retracted her gaze, moved to the first year of high school, and found her own name in the tenth place in the whole grade.
Seeing Chi Jinjin's name at number ten, Tang Shi couldn't help but sigh, "What kind of devilish place is this? How could they be so hidden?"
Tang Shi had long been accustomed to Chi Jinjin occupying the top position on the list. She had not seen Chi Jinjin not being first for a long time.
“Damn!” Tang Shi’s gaze moved up along Chi Jinjin’s name, only to find that Shen Moli was actually ranked first!
Tang Shi said in disbelief, “This Shen Moli, usually seems not to study hard, how come her grades are so good?”
"Studying is something you can just do casually." Shen Moli came to their side at some point and said arrogantly, "I don't want to be like some people who study hard every day, but end up with such poor results."
"Who the hell are you implying here?" Tang Shi said angrily.
"Tang Shi, let's go." Chi Jinjin reached out and pulled her away from the crowd.
“Shen Moli’s mouth is getting more and more smelly!” Tang Shi cursed, and then comforted Chi Jinjin, “Jinjin, her words are like farts, don’t take them to heart, tenth in the grade is already very impressive!”
Chi Jinjin said with a smile, "I didn't take it to heart. I never really took her words to heart. However, her words made me understand one thing."
"What's the matter?" Tang Shi asked in confusion.
Chi Jinjin said, "I still need to study harder."
"Oh my God, you've already worked so hard, how much harder do you have to work? I'm really afraid you'll become a nerd." Tang Shi rubbed her head.
Chi Jinjin laughed and said, "I haven't become a fool yet. My mother said, if you don't die from studying, then study until you die."
Tang Shi slapped his forehead with a headache, clasped his fists and said to Chi Jinjin, "I surrender."
In the blink of an eye, it was the weekend again, and Chi Jinjin's phone suddenly rang.
She put down the pen in her hand, picked up the phone and looked at the word "Dad" on the screen.
Chi Jinjin quickly answered the call and said, "Hello, Dad."
"Jinjin, are you busy now?" Chi Changgui asked on the other end of the phone.
Chi Jinjin replied, "I'm not busy. Dad, if you have anything to say, just tell me."
"Then can you come out for a moment? Dad is at the gate of your school." Chi Changgui said.
"What?" Chi Jinjin was shocked. She didn't expect her father to come to her school. After all, he had rarely traveled far.
She quickly ran out of the classroom and hurried all the way to the school gate.
I actually saw Chi Changgui. He was wearing a striped short-sleeved shirt and green Liberation shoes. Chi Jinjin had never seen her father wear such clothes. They must have been newly bought. He was also carrying a woven bag on his shoulder.
"Dad!" Chi Jinjin ran to him happily.
When Chi Changgui saw Chi Jinjin, he immediately smiled.
"Dad, why are you here?" Chi Jinjin asked in surprise.
Chi Changgui said, "Your mother is always nagging about you and worrying about you at home. She said that you are all alone in such a far place and she doesn't know if you are okay, so I came to check on you."
"Dad, I've already told you that I'm doing well in school. You don't have to worry about me." Chi Jinjin said.
Chi Changgui said, "It would be better to see it with your own eyes, and Daddy also brought you some good things."
He put down the woven bag on his shoulder and took out a bag of cleanly washed strawberries and salted duck eggs from the bag.
"You like strawberries the most. The strawberries at home are ripe, so I picked some for you. This is the salted duck egg that your mother pickled specially for you. Your mother said that you have no appetite in the summer." Chi Changgui put the things one by one in Chi Jinjin's arms.
Chi Jinjin looked at him sweating profusely and said distressedly, "Just eat the strawberries and salted duck eggs. There's no need to come all the way here."
"Your mother and I don't like to eat these." Chi Changgui said with a smile.
"By the way, Dad, we took the high school entrance exam, but..." Chi Jinjin said apologetically, "I only ranked tenth in the grade, not first."
Chi Changgui said indifferently, "Tenth place is fine. Jinjin, don't be sad. There are higher mountains outside this mountain, and there are definitely more powerful people outside of us. We just need to do our best and don't take the results too seriously."
"Yeah." Chi Jinjin nodded.
"Oh, yes." Chi Changgui suddenly remembered something and took out something wrapped in cloth from the woven bag and handed it to Chi Jinjin.
"What is this?" Chi Jinjin opened the cloth and was stunned. What was wrapped inside was actually a touch-screen mobile phone!
Chi Jinjin had seen it in a mobile phone store before, and it seemed to cost more than a thousand yuan.
"No." Chi Jinjin was surprised, "Dad, why did you buy me a mobile phone? It's not like I don't have one."
"Where did you buy it? Return it. I don't need it. That phone is enough for me." Chi Jinjin said.
Chi Changgui pushed her hand away and said, "Use this. If you use this, you won't be laughed at by your classmates..."
Chi Changgui suddenly stopped.
Chi Jinjin's heart suddenly trembled. It turned out that her father and the others had heard what she said that day.
