My body was lying on the ground, my face pressed against the cold concrete.
I'm waiting.
I hate myself for not being strong enough, so I can only wait, wait for Ye Zhan to save me.
But for a person like this who doesn't even care about Meng Liang, what use would it be even if Ye Zhan came?
My heart sank to the bottom.
But Ye Zhan is, after all, a little hope in my heart.
Hong Li was still cursing, but Li Jie was always whispering consolation beside him, and every word he said was for my own good.
"Oh, Wang Hao and Zou Yang are both from Dongguan Town. It's not good to make such a fuss."
"Brother Li, you are a magnanimous person. Please let Wang Hao go this time."
"Wang Hao and I are in the same class. It really hurts me to see him like this..."
Hong Li kept saying the same thing over and over again: "No, give me a thousand dollars, otherwise this matter is not over!"
Finally, footsteps were heard at the classroom door, and then Ye Zhan spoke up with a gasp: "Brother Li, what are you doing?"
"Ye Zhan, you're finally here!" Before Hong Li could say anything, Li Jie immediately said, "Brother Li turned out to be Zou Yang's brother, and I didn't even know that. Brother Li came here to vent Zou Yang's anger. I've been trying to persuade him for a long time, but it didn't work at all!"
Ye Zhan didn't say anything.
I raised my head with difficulty and saw Ye Zhan's face trembling slightly. He didn't look at Li Jie, Hong Li, or Zou Yang, but just looked at me silently. I saw apology and helplessness on his face.
"It's okay." I mouthed, "It's okay." I couldn't make any sound. These slaps and the kick left me with no strength left.
I think he has understood it very well. Ye Zhan is not stupid, he is a very smart man. He can see that Li Jie is just acting, this Hong Li is 100% someone called by Li Jie, but Zou Yang spent a lot of money on it, so he mobilized these people to act out a play.
Since Hong Li is Zou Yang's brother, it is perfectly natural for him to hit me.
After all, Li Jie and Ye Zhan had reached an agreement before that, that incident was over and they had nothing to do with each other. But Zou Yang refused, and after many days of discussion, he came up with such a plan.
"Ye Zhan, were you the one who took Wang Hao to bully my brother a few days ago?" Hong Li looked at Ye Zhan with the sidelong glance, like a man-eating tiger.
"Brother Li, it's not a matter of bullying or not." Ye Zhan tried his best to make his tone peaceful: "Wang Hao is Meng Liang's sworn brother. Wang Hao and Zou Yang had a little conflict, and Brother Liang asked me to help coordinate it. After all, we are all classmates and from Dongguan Town. I took Wang Hao with me, and they had a one-on-one fight, and it was fine later."
"Fuck!" Hong Li slapped Ye Zhan in the face. Ye Zhan's small body couldn't bear it. He swayed twice and fell to the ground, facing me. Ye Zhan smiled bitterly at me and said softly, "I'm sorry, brother, I can't protect you this time."
"Get lost, you big bastard!" Hong Li screamed, "You said it's okay, so it's okay?! What you said about coordination is to let Wang Hao throw chicken bones on my brother? Damn, you don't treat me as a human being. I'm still a student of Chengnan High School!"
As he was talking, Hong Li was about to kick Ye Zhan.
"Brother Li!" Li Jie quickly pulled Hong Li back. It must be said that his acting skills were really strong, and he pretended to be very convincing. "Ye Zhan usually respects you very much. We all hang out at Chengnan High School, and he doesn't know that Zou Yang is your brother. If he knew, he would never take on this matter even if he was beaten to death! Don't be violent, don't be violent. You can hit Wang Hao, but don't hit Ye Zhan!"
"Okay, then I won't hit Ye Zhan." Hong Li was very good at taking advantage of the situation. Maybe he and Li Jie both felt that Ye Zhan was more difficult to deal with than me, so they kicked me hard in the chest.
But the kick didn't hit me in the end, because Ye Zhan grabbed his ankle.
"What? You still want to protect him?!" Hong Li looked at Ye Zhan angrily, feeling angry at his ingratitude.
"Ye Zhan, why are you doing this?" Li Jie also sighed and looked at Ye Zhan. It seemed that this good man was determined to do what he wanted.
"Brother Li." Ye Zhan said, "Maybe I am doing this for your own good?"
"What do you mean?" Hong Li stared.
"With your status, you can certainly ignore Meng Liang, but what about the person behind him?" Ye Zhan's tone became strange, like a threat, but also like an advice.
