On Sunday afternoon, Lian Jun sent Shi Jin to school after lunch break.
"I'll pick you up next Friday." Lian Jun held Shi Jin's hand, turned the ring on his finger, and frowned. "I'll text you the results of the physical examination, don't worry too much. Eat well when you get to school, and don't stay up late." Shi Jin
held his hand back and smiled, "The last sentence is obviously what I want to tell you. The police academy will turn off the lights and check the dormitories on time every day. I can't stay up late at all. But you, without me watching, you will definitely be picky about food and sleep late again."
"No." Lian Jun promised. Shi
Jin deliberately showed doubt in his eyes.
Lian Jun was amused by his appearance, and his mood finally improved a little. He held his hand and didn't say anything. Shi Jin
then stopped talking, leaning lazily on him, rubbing him from time to time, silently comforting him.
The one-hour drive was not far. The two seemed to just sit quietly for a while before the car stopped at the gate of the police academy.
Lian Jun looked at the gate of the police academy through the car window, with a hint of regret in his eyes: "It's a pity that I can't take you in personally. I also want to see what your dormitory looks like."
Shi Jin thought of his six-person dormitory without a separate bathroom and the public bathhouse at the end of the floor. He sweated silently in his heart and said dryly: "There will always be a chance. College will take four years..." I heard that they can move to a four-person dormitory with a bathroom after they are promoted to the third year this year. It should be better to let Lian Jun see the dormitory then.
Lian Jun's expression faded after hearing this, and he said, "Yes, it takes four years, which is too long." Shi
Jin: "..." It's over, why do you feel like you have poked a hornet's nest.
"You are absolutely not allowed to fail the final exam." Lian Jun suddenly turned his head to look at him, and said in a heavy tone, "If you fail a course, you will have to take a make-up exam, and you will have to spend more time in school. I will never allow it!" Shi Jin
sat up straight and replied loudly, "No problem, Jun Shao, I will work hard!"
Lian Jun's serious expression could not be suppressed, and he was amused again. He stretched out his hand and gently pinched his face. He wanted to say something, opened his mouth and closed it, and finally sighed softly, leaned over and kissed him.
Shi Jin closed his eyes and kissed him back, and stretched out his hand to hug him soothingly.
After the kiss, Lian Jun rubbed Shi Jin's lips and said, "Go ahead. If you delay any longer, you won't have enough time to tidy up the dormitory and report to the counselor. Remember to eat well for dinner and call me when you have time." Shi
Jin nodded, picked up his backpack, and kissed him on the cheek reluctantly, then opened the car door and got out of the car. He stood beside the car and motioned Gua Yi in the driver's seat to drive.
Gua Yi didn't move, but turned his head to look at Lian Jun.
Lian Jun lowered the car window to look at Shi Jin.
"Impossible, I won't let you see me leaving." Shi Jin said the love words seriously.
Lian Jun's questioning words that hadn't been spoken yet were blocked back. His eyes warmed up, and he told him to eat well. Then he suppressed his reluctance, waved to Gua Yi, and slowly raised the car window.
The car drove away. Shi Jin waited until the car turned the corner and disappeared before he looked away. He slung his backpack over his shoulder and prepared to cross the street to enter the school gate. However, as soon as he looked towards the zebra crossing, he met the gazes of Luo Donghao and Liu Yong, who were staring at him.
His expression froze, then he tried to pretend nothing had happened, raised his hand, waved at the two of them, and greeted them warmly: "What a coincidence, you are back to school at this time too."
The atmosphere was frozen. Liu Yong looked at Shi Jin, and suddenly shouted, pointing at him and shouting in disbelief: "He's here! Shi Jin, who is so bold as to skip classes for more than a month, is here!"
With a bang, the returning students who heard the shout all turned their heads to look towards the source of the sound, and then followed the direction of Liu Yong's finger, their eyes fell on Shi Jin, sweeping their eyes around.
Shi Jin's eyebrows twitched, and he was immediately sure that during the nearly two months that he had disappeared, a new version of the rumor about him must have appeared and spread widely in the school, otherwise the students around him would not have such a creepy reaction after hearing his name.
Luo Donghao came to his senses upon seeing this, and quickly reached out to knock down Liu Yong's hand that was pointing at Shi Jin, dragged Liu Yong to Shi Jin's front, helped him block the sight of others, and said with a frown: "Where have you been? You disappeared after the military training was over, and everyone thought you dropped out of school."
"This... is a long story. Anyway, I left for a reason, and the school knows and allows it." Shi Jin first reassured the two of them, then took the lead and said, "Let's go into the school first. This is not the place to talk."
Luo Donghao and Liu Yong also realized that this was not the place to talk, so they quickly calmed down and followed him towards the school.
...
Shi Jin went back to the dormitory to organize his things. Coincidentally, none of his roommates were there. He didn't care. He took out his bedding and other things from the cupboard and spread them on the bed.
Luo Donghao quickly held his arm and frowned and said, "Are you stupid? It's almost winter. Why are you spreading your thin summer quilt on the bed? Go to the life counselor to get autumn and winter bedding and uniforms first." Shi
Jin finally reacted, slapped his forehead, and said, "I'm stupid. If I want to find a life counselor, I might as well go see the counselor first. I don't know if the counselor is in the office at this time." Then he threw the quilt on the bed and picked up his backpack.
Liu Yong couldn't hold it in any longer, so he walked over and asked curiously, "What did you go to the counselor for? Are you writing a self-criticism on your missed class? Tell me the truth, what have you been doing for so long after missing class?
" "What do you mean by missed class? I was doing a mission. Now that I'm done, my file has been updated and I have to submit a report to my counselor." Shi Jin replied with a smile. He dragged the two people, who were shocked at hearing the word "mission", out of the dormitory. After locking the dormitory door, he pulled them out and said, "I will explain all this to you in detail after I meet with the counselor. You can go to the cafeteria tea bar first, and I will come to you after I meet with the counselor."
Luo Donghao and Liu Yong struggled together but couldn't beat him, so they could only accept his arrangement helplessly.
...
The process of meeting the counselor went smoothly. Only some people in the upper management knew that Shi Jin had dropped out of school under the pretext of doing a mission. The counselor didn't know the truth and really thought that Shi Jin was on a mission. After reading Shi Jin's report, he not only praised him proudly, but also comforted him a few words, saying that the class committee would send him the courseware for the courses he missed and help him make up for it. Shi Jin
felt guilty after being praised, and he said a few humble words and thanked the counselor for the make-up arrangement.
After meeting the counselor, Shi Jin went directly to the cafeteria tea bar, found Luo Donghao and Liu Yong, briefly told them where he had been for more than a month, and told them some of his mission experiences in a true and false way, and then took the two to the life counselor to get autumn and winter daily necessities.
On the way back to the dormitory, Liu Yong was very excited. He grew up in the inland, and when he heard that Shi Jin not only used a sniper on this mission, but also went out to sea on a boat, he was almost jealous to death.
"It would be great if I could go on a mission like you. I haven't seen the sea yet." He sighed and wanted to ask about the mission in detail, but he remembered the confidentiality clause that Shi Jin had mentioned before, and he suppressed his curiosity silently. He remembered another thing that made him more curious, and asked: "By the way, Shi Jin, who was the person who sent you to school today? Although I only saw a little bit of his profile at that time, but the facial features, the luster of his hair, the fair skin, the rosy lips, the contradictory temperament of coldness and tenderness - Ah! Luo Donghao, why did you hit me!" Luo Donghao
wanted to cover his mouth, frowned and gestured to Shi Jin who was walking in front of him.
Liu Yong looked at Shi Jin in a daze.
Shi Jin was looking at him dimly, and said coldly: "The one who sent me to school today was my boyfriend. You praised him so much, what do you think of him?"
Murderous!
Liu Yong's body trembled, and he took a step back, shaking his head wildly: "No, no idea, I was just praising, I wanted to express my admiration for your good genes, it turns out that he was your boyfriend, really, really good." Shi Jin
immediately smiled brightly and said: "He is really good, I will introduce you to him if I have the chance, he is super good."
Liu Yong nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and silently moved closer to Luo Donghao.
Luo Donghao looked at him with disdain. Seeing that they were almost at the dormitory building, he hesitated for a moment, but still walked to Shi Jin's side and lowered his voice a little to remind him: "Shi Jin, you have been absent from class for more than a month. There are all kinds of rumors outside. If you hear bad words, you must stay calm and don't fight impulsively. You will be punished. Anyway, your classmates who have been through military training together know that you are not the kind of person in the rumors. It's okay."
When Shi Jin heard him say this, his heart moved. He glanced in the direction of the dormitory building and nodded to show that he understood.
...
After returning to the dormitory, Shi Jin understood why Luo Donghao suddenly told him that. This time when he returned to the dormitory, all his roommates were there, and it seemed that they had gone out to play basketball together before, and they all wore the same color jerseys. Seeing Shi Jin coming back, they stopped talking for a moment, then glanced at Shi Jin's uniform with a strange look, and then went about their own business in a subtle atmosphere, without saying hello to Shi Jin.
Luo Donghao and Liu Yong frowned at this, and Shi Jin also withdrew his hand that was about to greet his roommates. Liu Yong took a step forward and was about to say something, but Shi Jin turned around and pressed his shoulder soothingly, signaled Luo Donghao with his eyes, put down the quilt and other things, and pulled Liu Yong out with Luo Donghao.
"Damn it, what kind of attitude is that? Who are you looking down on?" Liu Yong couldn't help but speak angrily after leaving the dormitory. He looked at Shi Jin and said, "And you, why are you dragging me along... Why are you so unlucky? Why are you the only one left alone? You don't even have any roommates from the same class. It must be uncomfortable to live like this."
This year, all the freshmen in the police academy are accommodated separately. The dormitories are not divided by class like in the past. Shi Jin was left alone by chance. He was the only one in the dormitory who was from Class 1. The rest were from Class 2 and Class 3.
"It's okay. They were probably affected by the rumors. I'll talk it out with them." Shi Jin comforted him, patted him and Luo Donghao on the shoulders, and said, "Go back to your dormitories. I'll find you at dinner time. Don't eat early."
Liu Yong wanted to say something, but was stopped by Luo Donghao.
"Then we'll leave first. Call us if you need anything." Luo Donghao greeted.
Shi Jin nodded, watched them leave, turned his head to look at the dormitory door, and sighed. Sure enough, the roommate relationship that only managed to get familiar faces on the first day of school could not withstand the destruction of rumors.
He pushed open the door and entered the dormitory. He glanced at his roommates who were looking at him intentionally or unintentionally. He was too lazy to explain to them. He turned around, made his bed, put out all kinds of toiletries, put his phone and wallet in his pocket, and left the dormitory again. He found a quiet corner in the school and called Lian Jun. Compared with wasting time and explaining the situation to his roommates who were easily volatile, he was more willing to spend time caring about Lian Jun.
The phone was answered almost immediately. When Shi Jin heard the familiar voice, he immediately shouted with full energy: "Baby, have you finished the examination!"
Lian Jun laughed out loud in a second, and his mood relaxed instantly. He scolded: "You are making trouble again." Shi Jin
heard his laughter and smiled with satisfaction.
The two of them chatted on the phone for a long time. Lian Jun occasionally put down his phone to cooperate with Uncle Long's examination. Shi Jin listened quietly here, trying to distinguish the conversation between Lian Jun and Uncle Long, trying to analyze Lian Jun's current physical condition.
Time passed unknowingly, and it was finally time to hang up the phone. Shi Jin suppressed the urge to sigh and said goodbye to Lian Jun in a high and happy tone.
Lian Jun responded softly, and suddenly said: "Don't think too much, don't worry, I have arranged it for you at school." Shi Jin
was confused and was about to ask carefully, when he heard Uncle Long's roar urging Lian Jun to put down his phone. He was so scared that his heart trembled, and he didn't dare to continue to drag Lian Jun. He said goodbye again and hung up the phone.
After dinner, Shi Jin followed Luo Donghao and Liu Yong to the large lecture hall to attend the roll call for the students who return to school every Sunday night. It was his first time here, so he kept memorizing the route he had taken while walking, and did not notice the stares and comments of the students passing by. However, he did not notice, but Luo Donghao and Liu Yong did. The two of them were in a good mood, but soon became bad.
"What are you looking at? It's so annoying. A bunch of people who believe everything they hear." Liu Yong frowned and muttered.
Luo Donghao said expressionlessly: "I guess we will become lackeys of Shi Jin, the arrogant second generation with a backer, tomorrow." Shi
Jin came back to his senses, frowned and asked: "Arrogant second generation with a backer, what are these things?"
"Your new 'legend', the fact that Instructor Xiang is your biological brother has spread all over the school, and you haven't been to class for more than a month. Now everyone has started to guess which corrupt official's child you are, and you came here to get a degree so that you can get promoted and make money in the future." Liu Yong pouted as he spoke, looking down on these words.
Shi Jin was speechless and said, "My father was just an ordinary businessman and he has passed away. The one who is in charge of our family business now is my eldest brother. My fourth brother, uh, is our instructor. He is the only one in my family who joined the army. He has earned all his achievements by himself. He is not some second-generation rich kid."
Liu Yong was stunned and looked at him apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know your father had..."
Shi Jin waved his hand to indicate that it was okay.
"Those people outside are spreading too much." Luo Donghao suddenly spoke up, with obvious disgust on his face, "They are all so idle, they are just jealous. It would be great if a teacher could come out and explain it to you. No one listens to the explanations my classmates and I gave you." Shi Jin
was a little moved, and he put his hand on his shoulder soothingly, and said with a smile: "Maybe the counselor will explain it to me tonight. Be optimistic and don't be angry. It's not worth it."
Luo Donghao shook off his hand and frowned, saying, "How can the counselor explain it to you? You are such a jerk. Everyone is so worried about you, but you are just fine." Shi Jin
continued to put his hand over and said, "You still have to have dreams. What if they come true? Okay, don't be angry."
Half an hour later, Luo Donghao looked at the counselor standing on the podium, praising Shi Jin loudly for his excellent performance and encouraging everyone to learn from Shi Jin. His eyebrows twitched and he looked at Shi Jin expressionlessly.
Shi Jin lowered his head and remembered what Lian Jun said before he hung up the phone, "I have arranged things for you at school." He felt happy and sad. The good thing is that you don't need to think about it to know that the counselor's praise award was definitely instructed by Lian Jun. This move is really thoughtful! The painful thing is that everyone's gazes are too hot and complicated, and he is almost pierced.
The counselor on the stage was still excited. Because he couldn't explain the mission in detail, he emphasized Shi Jin's practical level. He took Shi Jin's student file, projected the mission evaluation content on the big screen, and said loudly: "See! Strong sense of crisis, strong psychological quality, marksmanship level and close combat level are all above the standard, and there is a mature overall view and excellent combat quality. Remember these four points. This is the standard you need to achieve in the next four years! Recall how Shi Jin got the first place in military training, and learn more from him! Don't think that the final exam is still far away from you, cheer up, those who dare to fail in the first semester, don't give me a winter vacation, all go to the military camp for intensive training!" After that, he slammed the table hard.
The whole classroom was silent. Everyone was shocked by the counselor's aura and quickly retracted their gaze, not daring to continue staring at Shi Jin. Shi Jin was also shocked and silently decided to study hard and make progress every day, and he must not fail the course!
After the roll call, Luo Donghao and Liu Yong were the first to rush to Shi Jin, asking him why the counselor would speak for him. Shi Jin used "I don't know" to vaguely pass the conversation and quickly fled back to the dormitory. As a result, he was still not at peace in the dormitory, and he was surrounded by roommates again.
Five to one, Shi Jin glanced at the roommates who surrounded him, and his muscles tensed slightly.
"Well, I'm sorry for treating you like that in the afternoon." One of the roommates was embarrassed to speak, his face full of discomfort and apology.
Several other people also apologized to Shi Jin one after another, saying that they did not ignore him intentionally in the afternoon.
Shi Jin was stunned for a moment, then his muscles relaxed, and he waved his hands to show that it was nothing. He smiled and said a few polite words like it was all a misunderstanding and that everyone should get along well in the future.
He used the excuse of taking a shower, took his pajamas and toiletries and left the dormitory again. After leaving the dormitory, the smile on his face immediately disappeared, and he rubbed his face in a bad mood. He is also a person with a temper. Since returning to school, he has clearly understood that some people are true friends, while some people can only be roommates forever.
On the first night after returning to school, Shi Jin did not sleep well. He always felt that the bed was too narrow and there was too much space around him. However, he adjusted quickly and it only took him two days to get used to school life.
Before he knew it, a week of classes was over, and the rumors caused by Shi Jin's sudden return to school and the heated discussions caused by the counselor's explanation finally faded away.
After school on Friday afternoon, Shi Jin once again declined Liu Yong and Luo Donghao's invitation to play together on the weekend. He didn't change his uniform or go back to the dormitory to put his textbooks. He stuffed the books into the backpack he brought to class and ran towards the school gate without looking back.
Liu Yong was so angry that he dragged Luo Donghao to the school gate, and then watched Shi Jin get into a low-key black business car and disappear from sight.
"The car door just opened, and a good-looking man in a strange robe appeared inside... Is that Shi Jin's boyfriend?" Liu Yong was a little silly.
Luo Donghao was also a little dumbfounded, but he quickly covered it up and said, "Didn't you see his boyfriend's appearance last time?"
"At that time I only saw a flash of his side profile, but this time I saw the front and upper body... Is that really a human? How could he be so good-looking..." Liu Yong pinched himself with his hand, and after finding it painful, he couldn't help but howl with jealousy, "Although I like girls, but, but Shi Jin's guy really deserves a beating, how come he always gets all the good things! I wonder if his boyfriend has any sisters at home..."
Luo Donghao raised his hand and patted him, saying, "Wake up, with Shi Jin's boyfriend's looks and temperament, even if he has sisters at home, they will definitely look down on you, so give up."
...
As soon as Shi Jin got in the car, he hugged Lian Jun, kissed him, sat up straight, and asked: "How long have you been waiting? Will it delay your work?"
Lian Jun did not answer. After carefully looking at his uniform, he suddenly leaned over and pressed him against the car door, lowered his head and kissed him. Shi Jin
was stunned, and hurriedly looked at the front seat of the car. Seeing that the barrier had been raised, his heart was relieved. He immediately hugged Lian Jun's waist and kissed him back happily.
The two kissed for a long time before letting go. Lian Jun got up to help Shi Jin tidy up his messy clothes and said: "It looks good. This jacket suits you very well."
Shi Jin adjusted his breathing, glanced at Lian Jun's hand on the button of his uniform, narrowed his eyes, hooked his neck, pulled him down, and kissed him again.
...
A few days before Shi Jin's birthday, Lu Shan finally sent a message - the alliance of the four families was officially finalized. In order to show her sincerity, Lu Shan returned Xi Fan, who had been detained for a long time, to She Ya. Wumen and Qianye admired Lu Shan's magnanimity very much, and revealed their intention to let her be the leader of the alliance
. She Ya understood and did not raise any objections. "You can't be this leader." Lian Jun frowned after receiving the news and said, "Wumen and Qianye are testing you. For this alliance, you took the initiative to contact them and gave She Ya, who bit you, the opportunity to form an alliance. You have already been too prominent. In the next period of time, you must calm down and let Wumen and Qianye take the lead, leading them to expose their ideas and plans, and pull them out from the safety of the rear."
Lu Shan's excitement subsided a little, and after thinking about his words, he said, " You can't be the leader." After hearing what she said, she realized that since they met, Wumen and Qianye had never revealed any of their own intentions and ideas. They were just following her words. She was shocked and said with fear: "Meng Qing and Qi Yun are really cunning. I was too proud and almost got caught in their trap and became their stepping stone."
Lian Jun comforted her, "No, you are just too tired. You have worked hard during this period."
