Ye Chaoran's face and neck turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The students surrounding him opened their mouths in astonishment.
But what surprised them was not the ambiguous relationship between Ye Chaoran and Jiang Xunmo, but——
"What?! Why aren't you together yet?!"
"I thought you guys were together a long time ago."
"Yeah, everyone thought you guys were together for a long time, so we were worried just now. Why haven't you guys been together yet?"
Ye Chaoran: “…”
Why do they all feel that Jiang Xunmo and I have been together for a long time?
How come he doesn't know about this?
Compared to Ye Chaoran's shyness, Jiang Xunmo was very happy.
After knowing that Ye Chaoran also liked him, Jiang Xunmo wanted to tell everyone the news immediately. But he had never found a suitable opportunity. Now that the opportunity had come to him, Jiang Xunmo naturally would not let it go.
Not only to announce it to everyone, but also to let them know that they both like each other.
What surprised Jiang Xunmo was that his classmates had already discovered it.
very good!
This way, Jiang Xunmo won't have to worry about any annoying people getting close to him and Ye Chaoran.
"We should focus on studying now," Jiang Xunmo did not explain too clearly, "but this is only a matter of time."
really.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see how close Ye Chaoran and Jiang Xunmo are.
It doesn't matter if they are not together now, they will be together sooner or later anyway.
"Then congratulations in advance!"
"Hahaha, will you give us wedding candy when we're together?"
"What wedding candy? It's not like we're getting married!"
"Oh, yes!"
The group of people burst into laughter.
After hearing this, Ye Chaoran began to feel hot all over.
"Alright, alright, since everything is alright, let's all go."
"Yes, don't tell anyone about what happened today."
Class 1 has always been united. Ye Chaoran and Jiang Xunmo were just called to question by the teacher. We can't allow any more trouble to occur at this time.
After everyone had left, Ye Chaoran couldn't help but look at Jiang Xunmo. The red on his face hadn't faded away yet, and even the corners of his eyes were stained with a thin layer of red: "Brother Jiang, why are you..."
"Huh?" Jiang Xunmo turned his head.
Only then did Ye Chaoran notice the faint blush on the tip of Jiang Xunmo's ear, and the rest of his words were immediately stuck in his throat.
It turns out that he is not the only shy person, Jiang Xunmo is also one of them.
But compared to his obvious shyness, Jiang Xunmo's shyness is hidden deeper. If you don't look carefully, you will be deceived by his cool and aloof face.
Ye Chaoran couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.
My mood suddenly improved.
"What did you want to say just now?" After waiting for a long time without any response from Ye Chaoran, Jiang Xunmo asked.
Ye Chaoran said: "Nothing."
Jiang Xunmo stared at him for a few seconds.
Ye Chaoran was not willing to be outdone.
It wasn't until the class bell rang that they both looked away.
After turning his head, Ye Chaoran reached out and slightly covered his red face.
Jiang Xunmo held up his face with his hands to cover his red ears.
The classroom was so quiet after class that Ye Chaoran could even hear Jiang Xunmo's clear heartbeat beside him.
…
Within the morning, the news that people from the Education Bureau were coming to the school spread.
Many students who were unaware of the situation posted on the school forum.
[Are the people from the Education Bureau here to inspect again?] 】
Didn’t you just check it before? 】
[Latest news!] I heard that the leader of the Education Bureau went to Class 1 of Grade 3! 】
[Class 1, Grade 3? 】
[Has someone in their class committed a crime?] 】
Who is it? 】
[Jiang Xunmo and Ye Chaoran? 】
[It should be them. Someone saw them coming out of the classroom this morning! 】
[Shocked, what do you want to do with them? 】
[Could it be because they are in love? 】
There were rumors in the school before that Jiang Xunmo and Ye Chaoran were together. In the past two days, the news has become more and more popular, and more and more students believe it to be true.
Now seeing this news, everyone was shocked.
[No way?] ? ? 】
[It’s just a relationship, why does the Education Bureau have to intervene? 】
[This is making a fuss out of nothing. Is the Education Bureau too idle? 】
[I also heard the news, I don’t know whether it is true or not. It seems that the two of them were kissing in school and were photographed, so they took the photos to report it to the Education Bureau, so the Education Bureau sent people to investigate! 】
[Report secretly taken photos? So disgusting...】
[Who would do such a wicked thing?] That’s too much! 】
[Who actually reported it?] If the Education Bureau really cares about dating, won’t we all be reported in the future? 】
[This shouldn’t be the case, right?] I really don’t think the Education Bureau is that idle…】
[So how do you explain the visit from the Education Bureau this time? 】
[Maybe someone is related to the Education Bureau?] Found a connection? 】
[This is possible!] 】
[Why is this person so disgusted with others?] I have reasonable suspicion that the people in Class 6 could do such a thing...】
My first reaction was also Class 6. 】
[Lin Bai? 】
[It’s not that Lin Bai is also one of their group.] 】
[Lin Bai doesn’t look like a good person at first glance…]
When Lin Bai saw this, he almost crushed his phone.
Is he some good guy who needs people like them to comment on him in an anonymous forum?
What does it have to do with them?
The reason why he reported Jiang Xunmo and Ye Chaoran was because they asked for it!
Who made them like to be so high-profile? I'm just going with the flow.
I don’t know what the situation is now.
Lin Bai suppressed his annoyance and sent a message to his uncle to inquire about the progress.
I don’t know if my uncle is busy as he hasn’t replied to Lin Bai’s message.
When the bell rang, Lin Bai had no choice but to put his phone in his desk. He planned to call his uncle after school to ask about the plot.
After waiting until school was over in the afternoon, Lin Nanfengbai couldn't wait to take out his cell phone and call his uncle as soon as he walked out of the school gate.
The phone rang for a long time before it was connected.
Before Lin Bai could even ask, someone on the other end started to scold him:
"You little brat, do you know that you have caused your uncle so much trouble? I shouldn't have agreed to help you! You don't study hard all day, and you only focus on framing your classmates! What the hell? I'm going to call your dad later and ask him to discipline you!"
Lin Bai was stunned when he heard this: "Wait... Uncle, what do you mean I have hurt you badly? The photos I gave you are all real, they..."
"Stop quibbling! My colleague came back and told me clearly that the two kids are not in a relationship at all, and their grades are better than each other. If you are really jealous that others have better grades than you, you should work hard and don't spend all your time on these crooked ways!" The man's voice was very stern.
Lin Bai was speechless. He wanted to explain: "I didn't, I just..."
"You just what? I'm warning you, Lin Bai. People have also said that this time someone is deliberately spreading rumors behind your back. I hope that person is not you. If it is really you..." The man paused for a while before continuing, "Then I can't help you."
The Jiang family’s legal team contacted the Education Bureau in the afternoon and took away the photos provided by the whistleblower.
If it was really Lin Bai who did this, it would not be long before Lin Bai was sued for "intentional defamation".
Not only that, when the Jiang family’s legal team arrived this afternoon, they made a big splash. Now everyone in the bureau knows that he took the initiative to send people to No. 1 Middle School.
What awaits the man is also an internal inspection by the Education Bureau.
This time he was really screwed by his own nephew!
If Lin Bai wasn't his nephew, he would have been unable to hold back and cursed.
"I don't want to waste my time on you. Just take care of yourself!" After saying that, the man hung up the phone.
"Uncle!" Lin Bai was stunned when he heard the "beep beep" sound from the other end of the phone.
What's going on?
Ye Chaoran and Jiang Xunmo were already in a relationship, so what was wrong with him reporting it?
And how did he harm his uncle so badly?
Lin Bai's face looked very ugly, but no matter how many times he sent messages or called his uncle, his uncle never replied.
Maybe because he sent messages too frequently, Uncle Lin simply blocked Lin Bai’s phone number.
Lin Bai was so angry that he almost threw his phone away, but after thinking it over he held back.
No, he didn't do well in the monthly exam last month, so his father wanted to cut his pocket money in half. Recently, Lin Bai also spent a lot of money taking pictures of Jiang Xunmo and Ye Chaoran, and spreading the news that they were together in school. If he drops his phone again now, he really won’t have the money to buy a new one for some time.
Lin Bai lay on the bed, so angry that he didn't sleep well the whole night.
When he arrived at school the next day, he slept all morning.
When he woke up, he happened to hear two students in the front row gossiping. In a daze, Lin Bai seemed to hear Gu Yao's name.
Ever since Lin Bai and Gu Yao broke up, they haven't had any contact with each other again.
Speaking of which, it’s been a while since I heard about Gu Yao’s recent situation.
Lin Bai raised his head lazily and asked the two, "Are you talking about Gu Yao?"
The two men didn't expect that Lin Bai actually woke up and heard their conversation. They looked at each other in surprise.
Lin Bai pretended to be casual and asked, "How is that bastard Gu Yao doing recently? Is he doing well in City A? The news has reached your ears."
Both of them looked a little ugly.
Seeing their strange expressions, Lin Bai couldn't help but frown: "What's the matter? Just tell me what you have to say."
One person finally spoke up: "Brother Lin, Gu, Brother Gu, Gu Yao, he went in."
Lin Bai: “What?”
After a long while, Lin Bai finally understood the deep meaning of his words. His face suddenly darkened: "Where the hell did you hear these rumors? What did Gu Yao do to deserve to be able to get in?"
Another person replied, "Brother Lin, really, we are not lying to you. The news has spread everywhere. This morning, Gu Yao's parents came to the school to look for Jiang Xunmo and Ye Chaoran..."
Hearing these two names, Lin Bai's face turned even uglier: "Why the hell is he related to these two people? What's going on?"
"We don't know exactly, but it seems that Gu Yao hired a group of thugs to block Ye Chaoran and Jiang Xunmo..."
"Yes," another person continued, "and then Jiang Xunmo handed all the evidence to the police. Gu Yao's parents came to the school today to ask Jiang Xunmo if the matter could be settled privately, but they were rejected."
Lin Bai's expression changed completely: "What about Gu Yao's parents?"
"They've already left," the man said, "After being rejected by Jiang Xunmo, they were kicked out by the security guards."
"I never thought that Gu Yao would be that kind of person..."
"Yes, I remember that there was such an incident in the first half of the year. At that time, everyone thought that there was a problem with the public security near the school. Many parents even came to the school to find the school leaders. I didn't expect it to be Gu Yao..."
"But Jiang Xunmo is also amazing. He was able to obtain all this evidence."
"yes……"
As the two chatted, the topic drifted away and they didn't notice Lin Bai's face in the back seat, which was as black as the bottom of a pot.
It was also the first time that Lin Bai heard about Gu Yao hiring thugs to block people, but what made Lin Bai feel even more incredible was how Jiang Xunmo knew about this?
Having been friends with Gu Yao for so many years, Lin Bai knew how careful Gu Yao was in doing things.
After such a long time, Jiang Xunmo was able to find evidence...
Thinking of this, Lin Bai's heart suddenly tightened.
Can't it?
Could it be possible that Jiang Xunmo could also trace it back to me this time?
Lin Bai suddenly thought of the post on the forum. He quickly clicked on it and found that the post discussing his name yesterday had not been deleted. Lin Bai suddenly panicked.
Without thinking, Lin Bai clicked the report button and searched his name in the entire forum. He reported all the posts that mentioned his name.
After doing all this, Lin Bai was still not at ease, so he sent a private message to the forum administrator, hoping that he could delete these posts.
Who would have thought that after waiting for an entire afternoon, these posts not only were not deleted, but actually became hot posts!
Many students from Class VI also saw these posts.
During the afternoon that Lin Bai stayed in the classroom, he could sense several pairs of eyes looking at him from time to time.
Some girls were whispering:
"No way? Lin Bai would do these things?"
"But in our school, the only person who openly has a problem with Jiang Xunmo and Ye Chaoran is Lin Bai."
"Lin Bai actually has a bad temper. I think he must be seeking revenge..."
Lin Bai secretly clenched his fists.
Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore. With a "bang", Lin Bai kicked over a girl's desk.
The girl was not paying attention for a moment and fell to the ground with her.
After being stunned for several seconds, the girl suddenly started crying in grievance.
The girl's classmate pulled her up and angrily said, "Lin Bai! Are you sick?"
"Who is the sick person?" Lin Bai glared at the two of them. "Do you think I'm deaf? Do you think I didn't hear you two making up bad things about me behind my back?"
The two girls' faces turned pale instantly.
Others rushed over to persuade him.
"Lin Bai, forget it, we are all classmates."
"Don't be angry, don't be angry!"
Lin Bai was almost furious. How could he not be angry?
But at this moment, he was also feeling insecure, so he could only bluff and say, "Let's see who dares to spread rumors again! This will be the fate of spreading rumors again!"
The girl who was still crying stopped crying immediately after hearing this and stood up: "What do you mean by spreading rumors? You did something wrong and you don't want people to talk about it? I think you are just guilty!"
Lin Bai's anger rose immediately, and he glared at her: "You say another word?"
The girl refused to give in: "Just say it, who's afraid of who? You're just guilty!"
Lin Bai was so angry that he picked up a chair next to him and threw it at the girl without thinking.
"Lin Bai!"
"Stop him quickly!"
A group of people rushed over to pull it, and the classroom suddenly became chaotic.
…
The incident in Class 6 that day caused a big commotion, and ambulances and police cars came to the school.
When Ye Chaoran heard that Lin Bai had hit a girl in the same class, he frowned and asked, "He even hits girls?"
Jiang Xunmo did not hide the disgust on his face: "I will ask the lawyer to move faster and ask them to contact the girl's parents. I can help them by the way."
Ye Chaoran nodded.
Lin Bai has been a troublemaker since he was a child. When his parents heard that Lin Bai had gotten into trouble at school again, they didn't care at all. They just called their lawyer and left it to him to handle the matter.
What Lin Bai's parents never expected was that after waiting for a whole night, they didn't see Lin Bai and the lawyer come back.
Lin Bai's parents finally realized that something was wrong, and they quickly called a lawyer.
When the call came, Lin Bai's parents were dumbfounded.
What does it mean that Lin Bai was detained by the police for intentional injury?
Didn’t Lin Bai just have a fight at school?
Is it that serious?
Lin Bai's parents could no longer sit still and drove to the police station overnight.
It was only when they arrived at the police station that Lin Bai's parents learned what had happened. The injured female student was Lin Bai's classmate. Because her classmates stopped her, she was not seriously injured. However, her left hand was broken when she blocked the stool thrown by Lin Bai, and she also had a cut on her face.
The girl's parents were both junior employees of the company. They were terrified when they heard that their daughter was injured. At this time, the Lin family's lawyer came to them relentlessly, trying to settle the matter privately through a conversation.
Now is a critical period for her studies. Her arm was broken and her face was scratched. Not only did it delay her studies, but it also affected her future life.
These people actually want them to settle their affairs privately? The girl's parents said they were not willing to do it, but they were annoyed by the Lin family's lawyer.
The lawyer from the Jiang family who rushed over happened to see this scene.
After a brief conversation with the girl's parents, they quickly reached an agreement - never settle the matter privately.
The case was handled exceptionally quickly when it was handed over to an experienced lawyer.
Before the Lin family's lawyer could come to his senses, the Jiang family's lawyer took the girl's parents to find the police. They were determined not to settle the matter privately and asked the police to file a case.
So Lin Bai was detained in the police station.
This was not the end. The next day, the Jiang family’s lawyer’s letter and the court summons were sent to Lin Bai’s parents at the same time.
When Lin Bai's mother saw it, she was so angry that she fainted on the spot.
As for Lin Bai, he began to regret it as early as when he heard the Jiang family’s lawyer coming to the police station.
It’s a pity that he no longer has the chance to regret.
One charge of defamation is not enough to make Lin Bai pay a heavy price, but if added with a charge of intentional injury, Lin Bai will not be able to get out of the police station for a while.
Lin Bai's life was completely ruined by his own hands.
This incident also caused an uproar in the school, and the school leaders were so angry that several hairs turned white.
It's almost October now, and these senior high school students will be taking the college entrance examination soon. Yet they still have time to stir up trouble here!
The school principal personally spoke and directly expelled Lin Bai.
As for the injured girls, the school leaders also went to the hospital to visit and express their condolences in person.
After learning that the girl's family was of average financial status, the school leaders organized the teachers to make a small donation.
After the visit, all the teachers in the school held a meeting. At the end of the meeting, the head teachers of each class repeatedly reminded the students not to discuss the matter privately and not to spread the news outside.
But this matter has caused such a big stir after all, how could the students not discuss it?
During this period, whenever you see students chatting in groups, you don’t have to guess, just walk closer and you will know they are talking about this matter.
After learning that Lin Bai was detained for intentional injury, Ye Chaoran no longer paid attention to the matter.
Jiang Xunmo was the same. In order not to disturb Ye Chaoran and himself, Jiang Xunmo even asked his lawyer to tell the girl's parents that they were lawyers from the Legal Aid Agency.
No matter how big the news is, it will gradually fade away from everyone's mind as time goes by.
In particular, something happened that made the students more concerned.
The monthly exam at the end of September is here again.
The National Day came right after the monthly exam. Ye Chaoran and Jiang Xunmo were originally looking forward to the upcoming National Day, but after learning that there would only be three days off, they no longer had any expectations for this holiday.
In three days, a whole day is spent on the road. Not only is it not fun, but it also makes you tired easily.
It would be better to take advantage of this time to sleep in a few more days at home.
After all, the National Day is over and the senior year students will have evening self-study classes, and the rest time left for them will become less and less.
As October arrives, the weather turns cooler.
The colder the weather, the more sleepy I tend to feel in class.
After listening to classes for a whole morning, Ye Chaoran finally couldn't bear it anymore and lay down on the table during the second class in the afternoon.
"I'll sleep for a while..." Ye Chaoran said to Jiang Xunmo in a daze.
Jiang Xunmo responded and asked, "Are you cold?"
Ye Chaoran fell asleep in a second and did not respond.
Jiang Xunmo reached out and touched Ye Chaoran's fingers, which were a little cold.
He tilted his head to look at the window. The window was closed tightly. It was the back door of the classroom. Someone forgot to close it when they came in, and now the cold wind was blowing in. There were no students sitting in the last two rows of the column near the door, so they probably wouldn't be able to reach the door even if they were asked to close it.
Another gust of wind blew in, Ye Chaoran frowned and shrank back.
Jiang Xunmo couldn't sit still anymore.
He raised his hand.
The subject teacher was giving a lecture and saw him reaching out his hand, thinking he was going to the toilet, so he said directly, "Go ahead."
Jiang Xunmo stood up, walked straight to the back door, closed it, and locked it from the inside so that no one could go through the back door.
The students in the back row, who had been blown by the wind for half the class, looked at Jiang Xunmo with gratitude.
Someone was about to quietly thank him when they heard their deskmate say, "What are you thanking me for? Brother Jiang didn't do this for us at all!"
The classmate reacted instantly and looked in the direction his deskmate was looking.
Jiang Xunmo sat down in his seat and took out a pillow from the desk. When he opened it, it turned out to be a blanket. He gently draped the blanket over Ye Chaoran.
Students in the back row: “…”
I see!
Then let’s thank Ye Chaoran!
Ye Chaoran also felt the warmth in his sleep. He reached out and pulled the small blanket on his back, then leaned his head towards Jiang Xunmo.
Jiang Xunmo curled the corners of his mouth, stretched out his hand, and gently held Ye Chaoran's cold fingers at an angle where no one could see.
Jiang Xunmo thought, once it was warm, he would let go.
Looking at Ye Chaoran's gradually relaxed sleeping face, Jiang Xunmo's smile deepened.
Of course, the two of them didn't let go of each other's hands until the bell rang for the end of get out of class.
The author has something to say:
After dealing with Lin Bai, let me start the time method!
