Chapter 60 Chapter 60 It's really outrageous
Gu Yang was just attacking Nie Ying's weak points, but when Gu Yuhui finished chatting with Old Man Nie and turned around, he pretended nothing had happened and shut his mouth, making no secret of his principle of use and throw away. He winked at Song Yinxing slyly.
Gu Yuhui's attention naturally fell on Song Yinxing. He smiled and asked, "I haven't seen this kid before. Is he your friend? Can you introduce him to me?"
He had a sharp eye and could tell at once that this boy, whom he had never met before, was obviously not used to this kind of occasion. Although he tried his best to relax, his behavior was still a little tense.
But the suit the other person was wearing was very valuable and made of very fine materials.
As soon as he said this, many eyes present turned to Song Yinxing.
This included Nie Siyu, but he just took another look.
He is still immersed in the joy of Nie Runhua and his son's failure again. He received an anonymous email before, and according to the content of the email, Nie Ying suffered such a big setback.
He didn't know who sent the email, but he was sure that the person behind it must be very unhappy with Nie Ying. After all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so he accepted the favor.
Song Yinxing naturally wouldn't be so reckless as to submit evidence under the real-name system. Apart from knowing that the other party was sent to Africa to develop the market after failing to seize power in his previous life, he didn't know Nie Siyu very well. Naturally, he wouldn't be in the same boat with him just because of Nie Ying.
Similarly, he and Gu Yuhui had no intersection.
So now when faced with questions, he just lowered his head and said nothing.
Gu Yang was still thinking about how to introduce him best, but He Mingan answered for him first.
"His name is Song Yinxing, he is our classmate, and he is also studying at Guanli." He Mingan said to Mr. Nie with a smile, "You said you wanted to have a lively birthday party and invite all the young people to come. It just so happened that we were all together after school, so I brought classmate Song here."
Mr. Nie finally smiled from his tense face: "You remember my words well, kid. You are more considerate than the others in my family."
Upon hearing this, Nie Siyu and his son both sneered. They had been busy dealing with Nie Runhua these days and could not take care of other things for the time being.
"Student Song is the top scorer in our city's high school entrance exam and is now always ranked first in the grade with very good grades."
Hearing this, Mr. Nie's expression softened even more. He had no conditions to go to school when he was young, so he attached great importance to the education of his children and grandchildren. It was a pity that none of them lived up to their expectations, so the two children from the second son's family had to be sent out for gilding.
As for the one from the old family, it is even more important.
When he thought of the terrible things he had seen before, such as Nie Ying forming gangs and bullying classmates in school, and Nie Siyu's happy look when he held up the evidence in front of him, he felt despair about the future of the Nie family.
In such a contrast, He Mingan, who stood in front of him and spoke and acted prudently and knew when to advance and retreat, seemed more like a clear stream.
He Yihong did a lot of bad things in his past. The mistress he kept outside even brought her illegitimate child to his house. The matter has not been sorted out yet. The illegitimate child was even stuffed into a ceremony to study. Mrs. He was also disheartened and no longer cared about the family affairs.
She was able to raise her children so well.
Old Master Nie could only sigh that whether his descendants would have a successful future sometimes depended on fate.
He concealed his inner feelings and greeted Song Yinxing in a friendly manner.
Gu Yuhui, who understood the whole story, did not say anything else. He just smiled and looked at Gu Yang, who was standing quietly beside him, with a meaningful look.
Song Yinxing had never met Grandpa Nie in his previous life. The only member of the Nie family he had come into contact with when he was in school was Nie Ying. Later, when he met Nie Ying again, he learned from her that Grandpa Nie had passed away.
After just a few words, Mr. Nie left him with the impression of an old man who was serious and sharp, but humane.
He subconsciously thought that if Mr. Nie had known about Nie's bullying when he was in high school, or if the old man had lived a few more years, he might have stepped in to stop Nie Ying's increasingly lawless behavior.
Could his tragedy have been avoided?
But he soon forced himself to stop assuming things that hadn't happened.
Song Yinxing sighed inwardly with self-mockery.
We had only talked for a few minutes, how weak did he have to be?
After he was reborn, perhaps because the oppression from the outside world had disappeared, his originally numb mentality gradually revived, and he became more prone to thinking.
wrong.
Song Yinxing looked at Gu Yang who was standing not far from him.
He stared at the other person, forgetting even to hide himself.
The changes in his situation and his mentality all originated from Gu Yang.
Although there were some minor twists and turns, the banquet ended smoothly in the end.
Although they didn't come together, Gu Yuhui also had to go home tonight. Although Gu Yang was a little reluctant, he could only get into the back seat silently.
He Mingan kindly offered to send Song Yinxing back. After all, he was the one who brought him here, so naturally he had to provide a one-stop service.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one else around, Song Yinxing couldn't help but ask the question in his heart: "Why did you bring me here?"
"Not good?" He Ming'an said with a smile, "You and Ayang had a little misunderstanding, I'm helping you create an opportunity to reconcile."
Although the facts were indeed as the other party said, Song Yinxing's doubts were not resolved.
The alternating light and shadow outside kept passing by, and the smile on the other person's face seemed to be covered with a false mask.
Has he ever felt this way before?
Song Yinxing always felt that He Mingan was a very kind-hearted person. Even if he met unfamiliar classmates at school, as long as the other party was in trouble, he was always willing to help to the best of his ability.
"It's so cold." He Ming'an leaned his elbow against the car door and looked out the window, even though he was in the heated car. "It looks like it might snow this year."
"The last time I saw snow was when I was in elementary school."
He Mingan was relaxed, and seemed to be just afraid that he would be embarrassed by silence, so he casually brought up the topic, "Do you still remember? That year, the snow was so heavy that the roads were closed, and all the primary and secondary schools in the city were suspended."
Song Yinxing had an impression of this. Although he was not in the mood to recall it, he still politely responded with a "remember".
But I didn't expect that He Mingan's next sentence would come out so unexpectedly: "That was also the year when Ayang and I met."
As he said this, a black shadow froze on his face, obscuring his expression.
Song Yinxing was unable to catch what expression the other party had when he said this, nor did he know why the other party suddenly brought up this matter.
When talking about the past, memories would be unconsciously drawn back. He Mingan closed his eyes to stop himself from recalling those related things.
"There's not much time left until we graduate."
He Mingan continued, "With your grades, it shouldn't be a problem for you to get into Peking University or Tsinghua University. Ah Yang will study abroad in the future, and your interactions will gradually become less frequent, so it's better to resolve any misunderstandings as soon as possible."
When he heard these words, Song Yinxing felt his heart suddenly sink for some reason.
It felt like stepping on empty air at the edge of a cliff, and my whole body was filled with a cold and frightening feeling as if it were pricked by needles.
They went to the same school, and Gu Yang's classroom was just upstairs from his, so it was not a problem for them to run into each other by chance or meet up on their own initiative.
So much so that he didn't even have time to think about it.
The scene of Gu Qingxu calling him out that day and trying to get rid of him with money suddenly came back to his mind at this moment.
At that time, he was completely resisting Gu Qingxu, so much so that he didn't even think carefully about what the other person said.
And now He Mingan calmly and casually raised this issue.
He tried to imagine life without Gu Yang by his side, but such imagination would inevitably lead him into darkness.
The shuttle bus stopped at the door downstairs of his community. Seeing that there was no movement behind, He Mingan gave the driver a look, and the other party immediately got out and considerately opened the door for Song Yinxing.
Song Yinxing finally came back to his senses. He said goodbye and walked out. He seemed a little dazed when he went upstairs.
The room behind the door was dark and deserted. Song Yinxing had long been accustomed to such scenes.
He closed the door, turned on the light, and walked back to his room.
He has obsessive-compulsive disorder and mild mysophobia, and needs to keep everything in his space tidy.
The quilt that was folded before going out in the morning was placed neatly at the head of the bed. The small square next to it was the scarf that Gu Yang had left there before.
Song Yinxing gently stroked the scarf.
He didn't do anything. He just sat motionless at the head of the bed, alone in the room, holding the scarf in his arms. There was an indescribable depression in his cold and restrained expression.
Until a phone call interrupted his thoughts.
As soon as the phone was picked up, there was a ghostly howling cry from the other end: "Brother! Brother——"
Song Yinxing put the phone away with an expressionless face.
"Brother, I was beaten!" Song Zihan's earth-shaking cry resounded throughout the room, and echoes came from the other side.
"What's going on?" Song Yinxing was stunned, and finally broke free from his dazed state.
Song Zihan just kept howling incoherently. Song Yinxing asked which hospital he was in, grabbed his coat and rushed over.
The situation was a little more serious than he had imagined.
Song Zihan was beaten badly, and there was a big swelling on his left cheek, which looked even more horrible because of the red medicine applied on it. During the time he was here, the doctor took an X-ray of Song Zihan, which showed a slight fracture of his leg bone.
"How long will it take to heal?" Song Yinxing asked.
The doctor couldn't give an exact number, he could only say roughly two months.
"That's good." Song Yinxing murmured calmly, "It's the end of December now. If you can get better in March, you shouldn't have any problem taking the physical education exam in May if you work hard."
Song Zihan was so shocked that he glared: "It's already this hour, and you're still thinking about this, can someone come..."
Before he could finish his words, he met Song Yinxing's cold eyes and immediately sewed his mouth shut.
As the second son in the family, he never had the courage to be alone with his brother. He was afraid of seeing his brother's deep eyes. His brother's eyes were the things he feared most in his life.
"By the way, how did you get into this state?" After solving the problem he was worried about, Song Yinxing continued to ask.
Why is this question placed at the end of the physical education middle school entrance examination?
Song Zihan roared like a groundhog in his heart, but at this moment Song Yinxing exuded a sense of calm madness, and coupled with the blood suppression, he could only speak honestly.
"I was sitting there quietly when suddenly a bunch of people came over. The leader asked me if I was Song Zihan and if my brother was Song Yinxing."
"After I answered yes, they beat me up. After the beating, they told me to tell you something: this is the price you pay for messing with the wrong people."
At this point, Song Zihan glanced at Song Yinxing resentfully. He felt that he was simply a big victim. Every wrong has its perpetrator, why was it that his brother offended and in the end he was the one to be beaten.
But since the fight had already happened, he was ready to ask for some compensation from his brother. Just as he was hesitating and coming up with a rough draft, Song Yinxing frowned, "Shouldn't you be staying in your own dormitory at night? Where did this little thug hit you?"
Song Zihan's face froze and he couldn't say anything.
Song Yinxing knew what was going on as soon as he saw the look on his face, because the other party had a criminal record. He had climbed over the wall to go to the Internet cafe to play games after the lights were turned off at night.
He just felt tired of this ignorant younger brother, but now was not the time to pay attention to him. He was wondering who had done it.
In a flash, Gu Qingxu's silhouette flashed in his mind, along with the cruel words he had said at that time.
"I will definitely make you regret it."
Is it because he did not stay away from Gu Yang as the other party wished, so he used such despicable means to retaliate?
Song Yinxing felt like a heavy stone was pressing on his heart, but he didn't say much. He just asked Song Zihan to take good care of his injuries.
When he went to school the next day, he basically didn't sleep well all night because he had to take care of Song Zihan who was shouting from time to time. His mood was particularly low, and his cold temperament became even worse.
When the classmates saw him, they all looked at each other in bewilderment.
After sitting down for the meeting, the teacher came over and asked him to get some information.
Song Yinxing took a deep breath, responded, stood up and walked out. When he left, he happened to meet Gu Yang who came downstairs to get water.
"The water dispenser upstairs suddenly broke down." Gu Yang shook his thermos cup.
Seeing Gu Yang here, Song Yinxing actually felt as if he was in a trance. He stared at Gu Yang in a daze.
Seeing his out-of-body look, Gu Yang stretched out five fingers and waved them in front of his eyes. Seeing that Song Yinxing didn't even move his focus, he reached out and touched his forehead: "You don't have a fever."
"What are you doing here in broad daylight?"
Gu Qingxu, who came from the teaching building next door to do some business, saw this scene happening right under his nose. He couldn't help but speak out before he even walked over.
But when he saw Song Yinxing's obviously exhausted look, Gu Qingxu couldn't help but reveal a sarcastic smile on his face.
Although he didn't go due to something, he heard from his classmates that Song Yinxing went to the Nie family's banquet last night. He thought that this country bumpkin was in an emo mood because he felt such a huge gap in his horizons after being broadened.
"You look like you're in a bad mood. It seems like what happened last night was a big blow to you." Gu Qingxu said with a smile.
Song Yinxing looked at him solemnly. He didn't know why he felt an indescribable disgust when he looked at Gu Qingxu's face. This disgust was not only about Song Zihan's injury, but also involved much more.
The repressed emotions that kept accumulating were like a snowball, gradually pushing him to the edge. He could hardly hear what the other party was saying, even though he was mumbling something.
For a moment he even felt that if he was given a knife, he would stab it without hesitation.
"What did I say? We are not from the same world." After Gu Qingxu finished speaking, he turned to Gu Yang leisurely, "Why are you sticking with him again? Hurry up..."
Before Gu Qingxu could finish his words, he suddenly felt a strong impact on the right side of his face. His head tilted and he staggered backwards under the force.
Gu Qingxu was stunned. He covered his face and stared at Song Yinxing in disbelief, as if something outrageous had happened.
