☆, Chapter 16
After a while, a nurse came out with a bottle of medicine and shouted to them, "Okay, come and get your injections. Boys, be brave. It's just an injection. How can the disease be cured without an injection?"
Xiu Yangui's body shook, and without saying a word, he buried his face in Xi Mo's palm. His whole body was radiating heat, and he looked not afraid, but shy.
Xi Mo smiled lightly at the nurse and said, "Sister, I'll give you the injection."
"ah?"
The medical staff was dumbfounded. They took the registration form and looked at it carefully. "Xi Mo?"
"It's me." Xi Mo nodded.
At that time, the medical staff and other nurses nearby all laughed. Without looking at Xiu Yangui, they knew that he was so ashamed that he wished he could find a crack to crawl into.
I wonder if Xiu Yangui, who is now a high school student, is braver than he was when he was a junior high school student?
"Ah, you still remember..." Xiu Yangui murmured with a somewhat uneasy look on his face. To his shame, he was still afraid of injections.
As soon as he entered the hospital, he became stiff, his expression froze, and he could only blink, his eyeballs wouldn't move.
"It's okay, just one shot will do."
Seeing his face ashen, Xi Mo couldn't bear it and said, "Close your eyes."
Xiu Yangui no longer needs three adults to hold him down when he gets an injection. Now he can hold himself down.
There were so many people in the hospital, he couldn't lose face. The veins on his neck bulged, and he could only close his eyes tightly to express that he had grown up and was no longer afraid of injections.
The doctor patted his tense muscles and said, "Relax, relax."
But Xiu Yangui couldn't do it. He could only stare at the doctor in silence, his face full of confusion and bewilderment. What should he do if he couldn't relax?
The doctor looked at Xi Mo helplessly, "Your brother's muscles are too tense, let him relax, otherwise the needle will break."
Xiu Yangui's school uniform jacket was left at school, and he was only wearing a single piece of clothing underneath. In addition, he was tall, and his face was tense, making him look ferocious. Xi Mo was wearing a school uniform and still looked childish. When she interacted with Xiu Yangui, her gestures and movements did not show the ambiguity and intimacy of a young couple, so people thought they were a pair of siblings.
Xiu Yangui turned his head stiffly. He had reached his limit. He felt that he would run out of the hospital immediately next. He worked hard to exercise and strengthen his body so that he could avoid going to the hospital for injections. Who knew that he would have to face such a terrifying thing again.
Xi Mo saw his expression of wanting to cry but not being able to, and reached out to pat his shoulders. His shoulders were as hard as a piece of steel. "Brother, don't be nervous, just ask the doctor for an injection and you'll be fine."
The doctor finished the injection quickly and said, "Right, that's it. Sit there and wait for half an hour."
Xi Mo pulled the feverish Xiu Yangui to sit down. The blush on his face, which had just turned red, began to turn pale again when he saw one person after another going in for injections, as if he could empathize with them.
Xi Mo wanted to get him some hot water, but he grabbed her wrist and said, "I'll go get you a glass of water."
"I don't drink."
He held her tightly, as if Xi Mo was his lifeline. If only they were still children now, he could naturally stick to Xi Mo for comfort like he did before.
Now I regret not taking advantage of my youth to spend more time with Xi Mo.
Thinking back to what Xi Mo called "brother" just now, this specific title will produce a different feeling.
Xi Mo used to call him brother. He was half a year older than Xi Mo, but he didn't care at all when he heard this title before. When he grew up a little, he felt a sense of responsibility as a brother and felt that she was his younger sister and he needed to take care of her. But when he grew up a little more, Xi Mo called him by his name directly.
Now, after so many years, when he hears the word "brother" again, he is moved.
Finally, they were able to leave the hospital. An hour and a half was enough for Xiu Yangui to regain consciousness and clearly understand what he had done.
The corners of Xiu Yangui's eyes were still a little red. He didn't dare to look at Xi Mo. It was too embarrassing for her to see him fighting and then seeing him looking so cowardly because he was afraid of the injection.
Xi Mo didn't notice his worried look. She took him to the clothing store opposite the hospital and picked out a coat for him. "Is this one okay? Wear it first, don't catch a cold."
"Ah? Okay."
The decisive Xi Mo didn't even give Xiu Yangui time to try on the clothes. After seeing that the size fit him and they looked good, she paid the bill and left, then took a taxi back to school.
Just now in the hospital, Xi Mo received a call from her class teacher. The incident was quite serious and had spread too widely, so Xi Mo and Xiu Yangui were asked to return to school as soon as possible.
Originally, the sports meet would have ended after the 4x100 relay race in the afternoon, but now that this rather serious incident has occurred, the entire second year of high school can no longer participate in the sports meet.
The anonymous voice message was sent in the group. Anyone who had a mobile phone or had friends who had mobile phones had basically heard it. There were teachers' spies in the group, and they controlled public opinion and the development of the matter at the first time.
After Xiu Yangui unilaterally beat Yang Tao, they appeared in time and sent Yang Tao to the infirmary for treatment.
Now the protagonists of the incident are all in the office, except for a few boys who were next to Yang Tao when he said those words, there is also a strange girl.
It was this girl who anonymously posted what Yang Tao said to the group, and the teachers also learned the whole story.
It's quite magical to say, originally, a male classmate who was speechless after hearing Yang Tao swearing like crazy was complaining to his girlfriend about Yang Tao's mood swings.
The girl wanted to hear how Yang Tao cursed. She was also a sophomore and had hated Yang Tao since she was in the first year of high school because he always bullied his classmates, especially his own friends. In addition, she felt that Yang Tao was a disrespectful gangster and was particularly impolite.
She asked her boyfriend to video chat with her and broadcast the video live to her.
I didn't expect to see Yang Tao swearing constantly, and he was particularly harsh when he scolded Liu Ben. Not only did he scold him, he also beat him and kicked him. This is simply school bullying.
Girls are always kind.
She took screenshots and recorded the screen, recording all the evidence of Yang Tao bullying Liu Ben, insulting and bullying his classmates. She decided to send it to the dean of studies afterwards and make sure that Yang Tao was punished.
Who knew that things would get more and more out of control. Yang Tao started to curse and slander people like crazy. Liu Ben rushed up to fight with him. Her boyfriend stepped forward to stop them, and the video call ended there.
This bullying is over, but what about next time? Are we going to watch Yang Tao continue his evil ways? Liu Ben was the victim this time, but who will be next? Her? Or her boyfriend? And what about the classmates he insulted and slandered? Will they be insulted for nothing? Who else will continue to be subjected to unwarranted suspicion?
Can't.
She decided to publish what she had saved. Because it was a video call, the faces of her, her boyfriend, and other people present were all in it. She did not choose to publish the video, but instead took out what Yang Tao said and made a voice message, and sent it to the group. Her original intention was to hope that more people would know Yang Tao's true face, so that he would be more restrained and stop bullying others.
She never expected that Xiu Yangui would beat Yang Tao until he fainted.
Because the original intention of this incident is to prevent the occurrence of school violence, it is a brave and righteous act, and the school will not confuse right and wrong.
In the end, the Academic Affairs Office decided that everyone else was fine, and gave them extra points and praise. Of course, they also gave them some reminders, asking them to report any problems to the teacher in a timely manner.
In addition to being praised and given extra points, Xiu Yangui also needs to pay half of Yang Tao's medical expenses and write a 1,000-word self-criticism.
After verification by the Teaching Department, it was found that many students had been suppressed by Yang Tao for various reasons and had engaged in small-scale campus bullying, so Yang Tao was ordered to drop out of school and would no longer be a student of Moral Education High School.
Moral education: The school will always provide correct education to help students form correct outlook on life, values, morals and attitude towards life.
Because this incident is ultimately linked to school violence and bullying, which is the most pressing issue on campus, the first and third year high school students have almost all known about this incident. They don't even have the energy to participate in the sports meet, as they are all discussing the major events that happened in their second year.
The school simply postponed the last few competitions to next Monday, and gave students a holiday starting tomorrow, including three consecutive days off over the weekend, so that the class teachers could do a good job of ideological work with the students. In the next month, the themes of the activities to be carried out on campus will be related to school violence.
The other students can have a good rest, but Xiu Yangui cannot. He has to write a self-apology within three days and also heal his arm injury. He also has a 4x100 relay race on Monday, and he is the first runner.
When Xiu Yangui and Xi Mo came out of the office and walked into the classroom to pack up their things, no one was left in the classroom. Although it was a bit cruel, no one cared about the injured Yang Tao and everyone was celebrating their precious day off.
The corridor had been cleaned, and there was only a faint smell of disinfectant in the air. Xiu Yangui and Xi Mo walked downstairs together, in silence all the way.
Xiu Yangui's brainstorming continued. What should he do? How should he start talking? What topic should he talk about? Should he say sorry first? Hmm? Why should he say sorry?
He touched the coat on his body unconsciously. This was the coat that Xi Mo had chosen for him. She bought it for him specifically because she was afraid that he would be cold. He decided to ask for it first.
"Thank you for the coat..."
Xi Mo met Xiu Yangui's flickering eyes and said, "You're welcome."
After walking a few more steps, Xi Mo stopped and said, "Thank you... well, for beating up Yang Tao."
After saying this, she blinked uncertainly. It seemed that she shouldn't say that. She should say thank you for standing up for her.
Xiu Yangui raised the corners of his mouth and grinned. It seemed that Xi Mo, like him, could not speak.
In fact, when he beat Yang Tao, he didn't think about anything in his mind. After the beating, he found that his mind was full of Xi Mo. It didn't matter if he was scolded, but he couldn't stand Xi Mo being treated like this. No matter what disgusting words were, they could not be related to Xi Mo. Xi Mo should be the most innocent and clean one.
He knew Xi Mo wouldn't care about these things, so he cared about them for her.
He couldn't control his primal anger and used brutal violence to solve the problem. This was not his original intention, but it was the fastest way he could think of to vent Xi Mo's anger.
Xi Mo thanked him again earnestly: "Xiu Yangui, thank you."
Xiu Yangui turned his head and met Xi Mo's eyes. Her pupils were as clear and pure as ever, just like the distant moon at night, simple and flawless.
"You're welcome."
"Also," Xi Mo's long eyelashes fluttered up and down, her lacquer-like eyes like autumn water, "next time, it's best not to fight. If you get hurt, I'll be worried."
As if he had been bombarded by a cannon, Xiu Yangui exploded on the spot. However, his body was not blown into pieces, but his whole body seemed to be steaming and cooked.
Xi Mo had never said such words to him before. This was the first time. The feeling was wonderful, heavy and yet light-hearted.
Xi Mo's character is not shy or reserved. She is like the spring breeze and drizzle, with a strong inner core. She dares to speak and act, and never hesitates. But she is particularly slow.
If she said something like this, it only meant one thing: she was really worried about him, and her emotions were so strong that she couldn't ignore them, and she finally blurted them out as if her Ren and Du meridians were opened.
She didn't feel shy after she finished speaking, but looked at me calmly and peacefully, with beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and a charming look.
Xiu Yangui didn't dare to look her in the eye. He glanced at the small mole at the end of her eyebrow and said, "I, I understand. Next time, next time, I, I won't fight and won't get hurt."
Xi Mo nodded and walked forward with satisfaction.
In the evening, Xi Mo received a message from Xi Ruoling.
【x-: Are you okay? 】
【mol: Not bad.】
Although it was Xi Mo who took the initiative to ask Xi Ruoling for contact information, Xi Ruoling's attitude seemed to be more enthusiastic. He would often come to Xi Mo and just chat for a few words.
Gradually, Xi Mo felt that Xi Ruoling was somewhat familiar, as if she had known him before, but he was a transfer student and not in her class. Why did he feel familiar?
Xi Mo asked Xi Ruoling, and Xi Ruoling's answer was ambiguous at that time, "Maybe we really know each other, but you just don't remember it."
Did they know each other? When? Did she really not remember?
Xi Mo received everyone's concern, and Xiu Yangui also received it, but one person's concern was a little strange, and it was a text message.
【Yin Ya: You like her.】
Xiu Yangui was a little shocked when he saw this message, and he did not give a direct answer.
Xiu Yangui: How do you say that?
Yin Ya: Well done.
What was Yin Ya talking about? Which one did she do well? Liking Xi Mo or beating up Yang Tao?
As for the former, Xiu Yangui couldn't understand why he said that, so he was more inclined to the latter.
After all, Yang Tao was also spreading rumors about Yin Ya, and he started doing so when he was in the first year of high school. However, because of Yin Ya's family background, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous. He deserved it this time and should have been punished long ago. He deserved to be beaten into the hospital.
