Tell the past

Xu Ru called several times, but Shan Yun didn't answer and let the phone ring. He knew that as long as he answered the phone, the content of the call would only be endless accusations against Shan Sixiong and guilt towards Shan Yun.

Xu Ru knew that no matter how much trouble she made, once her emotions calmed down she would be more rational than anyone else, and with Uncle Zhao around, nothing would happen to her.

Shan Yun also understood Xu Ru and knew the time limit and manifestation of her emotions. Just like the fact that she kept dialing the number now, it showed that she had not yet come out of her emotions.

If he answered the phone, Xu Ru's emotions would only continue, and things would develop endlessly.

He and Xu Ru need to calm down.

Shan Yun sent a message in the group of three.

Shan Yun: What gift do you want me to bring back tomorrow?

Jiang Zhe: Mr. Yun, if you don’t mind, please bring back another pair of shoes. Clothes are also fine. I’ll take them all.

Jixiang also replied immediately: "Master Yun, you are too polite. You can take as much as you can. If you can't carry it all, just come back empty-handed. It will be very troublesome to change trains."

Jiang Zhe: Can I ask for someone?

Jiang Zhe: I haven’t seen you for almost a month (feeling wronged), I miss you so much.

Shan Yun: Roll

…

Shan Yun joked with them for a while and felt much better. He flipped through the address book again, but there seemed to be no one else to ask. His fingers suddenly stopped, he thought for a moment, and clicked on the dialogue box.

Shan Yun: I will go back tomorrow and bring you a gift, do you want it?

Zou Weichen: No need

Also replied immediately.

Shan Yun muttered such a perfunctory answer, and just as he exited the chat box, the other party sent another message, which he clicked on immediately.

Zou Weichen: What time will you arrive tomorrow?

Shan Yun: If I’m on time, it should be around 5pm, so I can still make it to the evening self-study class.

Shan Yun: But I’m so tired and in a bad mood. I don’t want to go to class.

Zou Weichen: Then don’t go. I’ll give you extra lessons.

Shan Yun looked at the message and smiled. He was indeed a top student. Every word he said was about studying. He exited the chat box and entered the group to watch the chat between Jiang Zhe and Jixiang.

Still bickering with each other as usual.

Shan Yun thought about it and invited Zou Weichen to join the group.

Shan Yun invited "Chen" to join the group chat.

Jiang Zhe: ?????

Jiang Zhe: Who?

Jixiang: Welcome the top scorer to join the group.

Jiang Zhe: Who? Wow, boss, the top scholar, the top scholar is going to join our team.

Jiang Zhe sent more than ten welcoming emoticons in a row. Shan Yun was disgusted and wanted to remove him from the group chat, but the group owner was the school hunk who was now obsessed with sex.

Jiang Zhe: In the future, we can eat together, play ball together, and have fun together. With the addition of the top scholar, it will definitely be more fun.

…

Before Zou Weichen could say a word, Jiang Zhe had already sent a screen full of messages.

Shan Yun: You are like a courting dog now, but you used to call him a nerd.

Jiang Zhe: I am happy to do so. In the past, I used to focus on girls and was unable to recognize the great man. Now I am very sober and I will hold on to the No. 1 scholar tightly. I will have no worries in my life.

Shan Yun: Looking at girls? I don’t see you fancy any of them. You’re wasting your title of school hunk.

Jiang Zhe: The ban has not been lifted yet. After graduation, I will take you to pick up girls.

Zou Weichen: Flirting with girls?

Jiang Zhe: Yes, yes, if we bring the top scholar with us, we can get all the girls in no time.

Jixiang: Jiang Zhe, can't you see that you have stepped on a landmine?

Shan Yun: Not interested.

Jiang Zhe: What's the catch? Master Yun, you don't understand romance. Yes, Wang Bingyan from the next class doesn't even know that she likes you. She even complained to me that she suspected you didn't like girls.

Zou Weichen: Oh?

Jiang Zhe: Forget it, I'll just take the top prize

Shan Yun: The top scholar doesn’t fall in love too early!

…

But Jiang Zhe ignored his message, and the screen was full of various plots about Zou Weichen.

Shan Yun could see that Jiang Zhe's attitude towards Zou Weichen had changed 180 degrees since Zou Weichen rescued them from the gangsters.

The lackey is going to find a new master.

After chatting with them for a while, Dan Yun wiped away the previous gloom, looked at his mobile phone, and finally called Xu Ru.

"You finally got around to calling me. Looks like you've calmed down."

"I'll be back tomorrow morning."

"Then mom will send you off tomorrow morning."

…

The two of them tacitly agreed not to mention what happened today. Xu Ru knew, and Shan Yun also knew, that bringing it up again would only add to their endless troubles.

The next morning, Uncle Zhao came to pick up Dan Yun. As expected, Xu Ru put Dan Yun's money aside as usual. He didn't show up, but there was only a text message about the bank card payment.

Shan Yun still felt sad in his heart. Because of Xu Ru, he had enough money and no worries about food and clothing, but he was always unsatisfied and even despised himself.

Shan Yun did not let Uncle Zhao send him off, and flew back by himself early in the morning. When he returned to City A again, he saw his grandmother, who was worried, and then relieved when she saw him return home safely. He was heartbroken. He always pursued the love he could not get, but ignored the people around him who really cared about him.

He returned to the room and opened the curtains, which not only scared himself but also the person opposite him.

"Wei Chen?"

"Didn't you go to evening study?"

Shan Yun's flight was delayed, and on the way back he was still struggling with whether or not to go to the evening self-study class. Finally, he sent a message to Zou Weichen, and got the reply "I'll help you with the lessons", so he felt at ease and did not go.

He originally thought that he had to wait for Zou Weichen to come back from evening self-study before he could make up lessons, so he planned to do some exercises and wait for him, but he didn't expect that he would show up at the wrong time.

"Ask for leave." Zou Weichen came to the guardrail.

Shan Yun sat in the chair, holding his face with one hand. He couldn't imagine that the study maniac Zou Weichen would actually ask for leave, and he didn't look like someone who had anything to do.

"Are you asking for leave to help me with my lessons?"

Zou Weichen didn't answer.

Shan Yun was playing with the pen on the table out of boredom when he suddenly remembered their conversation today. Shan Yun deliberately joked and asked Zou Weichen to pick him up, and then Zou Weichen asked him what time he would arrive.

He slammed his hands on the table and stood up, saying in surprise, "Did you ask for leave to pick me up?"

Zou Weichen still didn't answer, but looked up at Shan Yun.

The answer couldn't be more obvious.

"You really took my joke seriously?" Shan Yun leaned forward with his hand on the table, "You are a very loyal friend."

Zou Weichen turned around and left without saying a word.

"Hey, what did I say wrong?"

Zou Weichen turned around and said, "Go back and get the test paper. I'll give you extra lessons."

"Don't worry, can I take a break tonight? I'm in a bad mood and don't want to study." Shan Yun leaned forward again, trying to stop Zou Weichen.

Seeing Zou Weichen turning around with a helpless look on his face, Shan Yun knew that it had worked. He seemed to remember something and suddenly said, "Just wait," and ran downstairs.

When he returned to the window, he was holding a bunch of snacks in his arms, and then he handed the whole bag to the other party, "These are all bought by me. I'm sharing them with you. You must eat them."

Seeing Zou Weichen taking it hesitantly, he thought to himself: Little guy, if I feed you like this every day and you don't gain some weight, it will be a shame for all the food I give you.

“You want to eat all of this?”

Shan Yun nodded firmly, and when he saw Zou Weichen open the bag, he picked up another bag and said, "I bought four pieces of clothing for the four of us as uniforms for our small group."

Shan Yun took out four brightly colored T-shirts from the bag and opened them one by one. Shan Yun's taste was indeed good. The styles of the clothes were very trendy, but the colors were a bit exaggerated.

"Which one do you want? I'm planning on the blue one. The yellow one only has small sizes left, so give it to Jixiang. The red one can be given to Jiangzhe. As for the pink one, you can take a look..."

Zou Weichen watched Shan Yun pick up the pink dress, and as soon as he looked up, he immediately interrupted him, "I want the blue one, you want the red one, otherwise I won't wear it. Give Jiang Zhe the pink one, he likes pink."

"Really? Why don't I have the impression that he likes such a... flirty color?" Shan Yun didn't dare to say the second half of his words loudly, for fear that the person opposite him would hear. He planned to let Zou Weichen try pink first to see his reaction, and maybe even tease him.

But the other party rejected it too quickly.

Shan Yun asked Zou Weichen to try on the clothes. Although the color was too bright, it looked surprisingly good. He was not convinced and asked Zou Weichen to try the red one.

He looked at Zou Weichen who was still sorting out his clothes, and stroked his chin, "I think you look better in red, how about we switch and you wear red."

Zou Weichen took off his red T-shirt and threw it over. "No, I only wear blue."

"Hey, you're still being stubborn." Shan Yun complained while putting away his clothes.

The two of them were chatting on the windowsill again. Shan Yun looked at Zou Weichen, who was working non-stop, and asked, "What are you doing?"

"I was just collecting the peanuts my sister dried, and I peeled them when I had the free time." Zou Weichen said as he peeled another one.

"I'll help you." Shan Yun said as he stretched out his hand.

Zou Weichen glanced at Shan Yun and continued to peel his peanuts.

"I'm in a good mood today, so hurry up and bring it to me. I can definitely peel it faster than you." Shan Yun climbed onto the windowsill, hung his legs outside the window, and leaned against the window.

Zou Weichen was skeptical, but he still took out a small basket and poured half of the unpeeled peanuts into it and handed it to him. Shan Yun peeled one and put it directly into his own mouth.

"Your peanuts are delicious and crispy. By the way, this time when I went back, I not only bought some clothes for us, but also bought gifts for Jiang Zhe and the others." Shan Yun looked at Zou Weichen when he said this, thinking that Zou Weichen would ask him what gift he would give him.

"Um."

Zou Weichen only replied with one word.

Shan Yun felt bored. He didn't tell him what gift he would buy for him. Wouldn't he be disappointed? But he thought that he would be even more surprised if he gave it to him when the gift arrived. He was looking forward to his expression when he received the gift.

Shan Yun also talked about his gatherings with friends and the interesting things he saw when he returned to City B.

Zou Weichen stood on the terrace, peeling peanuts seriously, and occasionally glanced at Shan Yun. Shan Yun didn't care whether he listened or not, and talked to himself, rambling on.

"I also met a kid on the plane, and he laughed when I teased him. Oh, if only every kid was that cute. My dad... Shan Sixiong's son is so disgusting to me, and he even came into my house..."

Zou Weichen stopped what he was doing and looked up at Shan Yun.

"On May Day, he and my mother started arguing again. It was very fierce. I grabbed the child in my hands. They panicked and stopped arguing. They were afraid that I would hurt the child. After all, because of me, he had a scar on his body that would never disappear. I was very disappointed. I didn't mean to hurt him at all, but they all thought I would hurt the child. After I put him down, I ran out in my slippers.

I really didn't mean to hurt him, it was because Shan Sixiong and my mother had a fight, and the child was crying and looking for Shan Sixiong, following him. I was afraid that he would get hit and hurt, so I ran over and picked him up. That woman, that woman was his mother, why did she just stand there and watch indifferently?

It was the same thing two years ago. He fell and got hurt, but everyone blamed me. If I had known I would run into them that day, I would not have gone at all. I really would not have gone. But I am glad I ran into them. Otherwise, I would have kept it a secret for the rest of my life and I would have felt even more guilty. ”

…

Shan Yun was immersed in his own world. He didn't know why he ended up talking about the things that gave him a headache on May Day and the past events hidden deep in his heart, and he talked about them in a messy way.

But now that he said it, his heart was so calm, without any disturbance. He raised his eyes and looked at Zou Weichen.

"Do you believe me?"

"I believe it!"
