Harbor
She also curled her lips in a forced smile.
"I've changed my mind, teacher. Li Hao must at least transfer to another school, and then this matter will be resolved."
The head teacher was ashamed.
"Mr. Wen Yan... Let's have Li Hao apologize. The school will give him a serious warning and suspend him for a week..."
"teacher."
Wen Zhili interrupted her. She was always gentle and polite, and rarely showed such impatience.
"This is obviously Li Hao's fault, right? Then why did you call me to school to solve the problem?"
The teacher opened his mouth and chose his words carefully.
"Because you also suspect that my sister is with Guangxi, and you also think that if this is true, then she should be criticized and educated. Is that right?"
Wen Zhili helped her speak.
"I've already asked my sister. You usually don't care about the boys and girls in the class. Even if my sister is in a relationship, is it necessary to call the parents? Just because you suspect she likes girls?"
The head teacher adjusted his glasses and spoke carefully, "Parents, our attitude towards homosexuality should always be to not oppose it, but also not to advocate or promote it."
It was this kind of talk again, which gave Wen Zhili a headache.
"Teacher, I've always felt that your statement is essentially a form of oppression against sexual minorities."
"What we call promoting homosexuality is the hope of giving minority groups the right to freely choose their lives, not calling on the entire world to embrace homosexuality. This is as unrealistic as making the entire world heterosexual. Only through so-called widespread promotion can the needs of minority groups be recognized by society and given space to survive, just like the feminist movement back then. What do you think, teacher?"
Regardless of the teacher's response, Wen Zhili continued, "Teacher, your words just now clearly show your prejudice against the homosexual community, but due to the increasingly open social situation, I have no choice but to say so."
"This statement may appear open-minded, but it's actually discriminatory," Wen Zhili said, his lips curled up with a smile that barely etched in his eyes. "What do you think?"
This time the teacher just lowered his head and pushed his glasses several times.
Shen Guangxi finally knew who Wen Yan had learned from yesterday, the way he wore a calm face but cursed horrifying words.
"Teacher, our child won't make concessions."
"Even if my sister likes girls, she's not wrong at all."
Wen Zhili leaned back on the chair again.
"But Li Hao's harassment, insults, and assault on female classmates are inherently malicious, and his values are questionable. I really don't feel comfortable sending my child to the same school as someone like him. We don't want an apology from him, but he must transfer schools."
After saying this, the office fell into dead silence.
Li Hao's mother finally laughed awkwardly, "Oh, it's just a small conflict between classmates. My Li Hao is a little immature, but it's not that serious..."
Wen Zhili lowered his eyes and lowered his voice.
"Teacher, do you agree with me? If not... I suddenly remembered that I was once a student of Teacher Zhang Hua. I have no choice but to trouble him."
"After all, no sister would want to see her younger sister suffer, right, teacher?"
Wen Zhili was also a student in the key class of this junior high school. Zhang Hua was her class teacher and now he is the principal.
He had praised Wen Zhili highly during their school days, and when he heard she had been admitted to a prestigious university some time ago, he even sent her a message to congratulate her.
When she mentioned it, the teacher immediately remembered it.
She remembered Wen Zhili and asked why she looked so familiar. Because she was so beautiful and Zhang Hua often talked about her, she still had an impression of her even after several years.
After saying that, Wen Zhili gently raised her eyes and looked at the head teacher, her beautiful eyes full of coldness.
"But I believe that the teacher's ideas are consistent with mine, right? I'm sorry to bother you, teacher."
A blatant threat.
The teacher finally held his forehead helplessly.
This was her first key class, so she couldn't afford to make any mistakes. Besides, Wen Yan had good grades and a good personality, and she had always liked her. Now the other parent's attitude was too strong, and it was jeopardizing her career.
How could she have time to care about this athlete who got in through connections?
"Okay, I'll discuss it with the school."
It was said to be a discussion, but since this was a private school, the matter was almost a done deal.
"Hey, teacher, you can't just..."
When Li Hao's mother heard Wen Zhili's words just now, she didn't take this young girl seriously. Now she started to panic.
"Parent, you've seen the other parent's attitude. It was your son who hit someone. Don't make it difficult for us teachers, right? Besides, this isn't the first time your son has skipped school to fight or date. If the school hadn't been thinking about giving him a chance..."
Wen Zhili turned around and saw Wen Yan and Shen Guangxi looking at him with admiration in their eyes, and finally showed his first soft smile of the day.
"Then thank you for your help, teacher. Goodbye, teacher. We are leaving first."
The three of them walked outside.
"You're just going to school, why are you messing around all day? Look at you! Now it's over, isn't it..."
close the door.
Li Hao's mother's pleading, the sounds of beating and scolding, and Li Hao's arguments were all isolated in the office.
"Sister, you were so handsome just now!"
Wen Yan blushed and praised her excitedly.
Wen Zhili smiled and said nothing.
The words I just used to refute the teacher suddenly popped up in my mind, as if I was also refuting myself for wanting to deny my sister's feelings.
If the world insists on giving you storms, then I will be your harbor first.
Originally, Wen Zhili was worried that his secret "threat" to the teacher would affect Wen Yan's situation in school. The next day, he asked his sister if he needed to go to the teacher to apologize and make amends.
Wen Yan smiled and said to her, "Sister, do you know that the teacher actually came to me during the day and said that she felt that what you said yesterday was very right and that she was behind the times. Sister, you are amazing!"
With just a few words, Wen Zhili was praised so much that he blushed.
The second coolest thing was Shen Guangxi praising Wen Yan in her ear for several days in a row: “No, your sister is so cool when she kills everyone in the office!”
The first pleasure was that she could again act coquettishly and ask for hugs and kisses from her under the pretext of praising her sister.
Little did she know that Wen Zhili saw through everything, but still didn't say anything. He just smiled and agreed with her every time.
Wen Zhili noticed that since this incident, the atmosphere between them had become more subtle, perhaps because his sister confessed to him that she liked girls.
Wen Zhili didn't know how to deal with it and couldn't respond.
I can only let the fear in my heart grow day by day.
My sister asked me for kisses and hugs more and more frequently, even when my parents were around.
Wen Yan herself didn't think there was anything wrong, but every time Wen Zhili kissed her or hugged her, he would secretly cast an uneasy look at his parents for a short while.
Fortunately, their parents only joked that the two sisters’ relationship was getting better and better.
The feeling of fear grew stronger and stronger, swelling to the point where Wen Zhili could no longer bear it - what would happen if his parents found out that his sister liked him, what would happen if his parents found out that he knew about it but let it develop?
Wen Zhili didn't even dare to think about it.
This is not right.
She told herself that. She would also tell Wen Yan the same thing.
This is not right.
But life always develops in a direction that Wen Zhili never expected.
On an ordinary night, Wen Zhili knocked on his sister's door and pushed it open after getting her permission.
The setting sun was pouring in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, soaking the entire room and dyeing the eyelashes on the side of my sister's face in front of the desk into a warm orange.
Wen Yan turned around with a faint smile on her face: "Sister, what's wrong?"
The smile was just right and polite, but Wen Zhili felt that it shouldn't appear on his sister's innocent face, especially when he was standing opposite her.
This wasn't the first time—he was polite to the right degree, impeccably well-behaved, but he would never cling to her and hug her waist again, nor would he pout and ask for a kiss on the cheek.
But Wen Zhili didn't reveal what he was talking about. He just smiled and handed over the cup of hot milk. Then he pretended to ask casually, "What have you been busy with recently? Why don't you sleep when you get home at night?"
The moment their fingertips touched, Wen Yan's fingertips gently retracted before she took the cup of water again.
Then she just turned her attention back to the question.
"I'm in the third grade, sister."
Wen Zhili stood there in a daze, speechless.
She was surrounded by a feeling of emptiness and had to admit that, as she had wished, some distance had finally been created between her and Wen Yan, her closest sister.
