☆, Chapter 52
Xi Mo sat in her seat, but Xiu Yangui, who liked to sit with his back leaning on the chair, stood up. He stood beside Xi Mo's table like a wall, with his arms folded and his head slightly lowered. With his tall height and long legs, he posed like a male model, as if he was listening to their conversation, but in fact, Xi Mo was the only thing in his peripheral vision, and his mind was nowhere to be found.
Don't be a childish high school boy who is awkward and pretentious.
Xi Mo didn't notice the undercurrents around her. She was immersed in her own world. In her previous life, during the entire semester of her second year of high school, or the entire three years of high school, there was no other transfer student in their grade except Xi Ruoling. Why did things change like this?
Logically speaking, her rebirth would indeed affect some things, but there were some things she definitely could not influence, such as the transfer student.
Maybe it has nothing to do with her.
The transfer student said he would be here in the next two days, but he would not arrive until Saturday afternoon. At this time, the students were the most relaxed and excited, just waiting to go their separate ways after school and enjoy a wonderful weekend. Unexpectedly, during the last self-study class, Lao Lin led a boy with his hair tied back into the classroom.
She has a thin figure, pale skin and bloodless complexion. Although she looks ordinary, she has a pair of beautiful eyes. Those eyes are the biggest highlight of her face, like peach blossoms blooming in the wind and rain.
A hint of gloom added a touch of feminine beauty to him. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He glanced at the classmates who were cheering for him enthusiastically, "Hello everyone, I'm a new transfer student and will be a part of the class from now on. I'm very happy to meet you all. My name is..."
"Xiu Changle."
"Xiu Changle."
Xiu Yangui's words overlapped with those of the boy on the podium, and their eyes met, but for a moment, they looked away in tacit understanding.
It seemed as if there was no relationship between the two, let alone that they were half-brothers.
Xi Mo, who was sitting in the front row, felt depressed after seeing Xiu Changle walk into the classroom. It was as if she was locked in an enclosed space with thin oxygen and a dull and depressing mood.
After Xiu Changle finished introducing himself, Xi Mo understood why she had that feeling. Xiu Changle came for Xiu Yangui, and it was definitely not a good thing.
The arrival of the new classmate made the students who were already excited about the weekend even more excited, and they all went to see the new classmate and communicate with him.
"Hello, new classmate. You and Brother Yan from our class have the same last name. What a coincidence."
Xiu Changle still had that faint smile on his face, looking a little superior. "Really? What a coincidence."
"Why did you transfer schools in the second semester of your sophomore year? Isn't your junior year coming up soon? Aren't your parents worried that you won't be able to catch up?"
"My parents heard that the atmosphere here is good and that studying here has a future, so they let me come."
"Hahahahaha, yes, a lot of people think so. But you made the right choice to come to Class 1. We have the top student in our grade."
"That's right. We can say that five of the top ten students in the grade are in our class. We are the most popular class, the top class."
"No. 1 in the grade? Who is it?" Xiu Changle was just pretending to be confused, he had already known it in advance.
"Student Xi Mo, she has always been the top student in her grade."
"Yeah, she's amazing. Last time she was 20 points ahead of the second place! She's amazing!"
"Xi Mo? Is she also in this class?"
Xiu Changle opened his mouth in surprise. It seemed that he knew Xi Mo. When his classmates saw him like this, they went to call Xi Mo.
Xiu Changle's position is the third from the bottom in the rightmost row near the door in the classroom, far away from Xi Mo and Xiu Yangui.
Xi Mo turned her head and looked at him with a calm attitude, without the enthusiastic scene of old friends meeting each other that everyone had imagined.
Xiu Changle waved to Xi Mo, "Long time no see."
"Ah? The new classmate knows Xi Mo."
"Is this true? Is this world so small? It's fate."
"Yeah, hahahahahaha, what a coincidence."
In fact, Xi Mo had no impression of Xiu Changle, but she stayed on his peach blossom eyes for two seconds. Those eyes were somewhat similar to Xiu Yangui's, but Xiu Yangui's eyes were more beautiful and dazzling than his.
No matter whether you knew Xiu Changle before or not, just nod casually.
Xi Mo nodded and turned back, her attitude towards him rather cold.
Xiu Changle didn't care and said in a familiar tone, "It is indeed the eldest daughter of the Xi family."
The classmates around him looked at it and said, "I understand! Rich people are in the same circle, they must know each other."
"I see. Your family must be very rich then."
Xiu Changle's attitude was humble, "Not bad."
"Hey, new classmate, don't be so modest. Rich people are low-key. I understand."
There was a lot of chatter over there. The students sitting in the circle with Xiu Changle were extremely enthusiastic and had loud voices. Xiu Yangui could hear them clearly even with his headphones on.
He felt unhappy, especially when he saw Xiu Changle looking for Xi Mo. He almost couldn't hold it in and wanted to stand up. He could treat Xiu Changle as a transparent person, on the premise that Xiu Changle could not get close to Xi Mo, no matter whether he had good intentions or bad intentions.
Not holding a grudge against Xiu Changle for bullying him together with Fang Sai in the past only meant that he was tolerant and generous. What was done was done. It did not mean that he could tolerate Xiu Changle continuing to act recklessly and do whatever he wanted.
Finally, the class was over. Xiu Yangui changed his previous reserved and arrogant attitude and rushed ahead of Chen Nianyu to find Xi Mo, "Xi Momo, let's go play games. Let's go."
As he spoke, he packed up Xi Mo's things. Xi Mo held a pen and watched his supersonic movements, then slowly opened her mouth to answer him: "Okay."
Seeing this, Qin Xinwei smiled ambiguously, "Don't be so exaggerated, classmate Xiu."
"Why did you come alone this time? Why didn't you ask Chen Nianyu to come? It's not like you to be so brave."
Xiu Yangui was anxious, but he still kept talking, "Brother is changeable, like Changing Sakura."
"If you miss Ah Nian, tell him. Don't keep it in your heart. I support you in pursuing true love. Love should be expressed boldly."
Qin Xinwei glanced at Xiu Yangui speechlessly, packed up her things and prepared to leave. Her eyes flickered between Xiu Yangui and Xi Mo, her tone full of teasing: "You should say this to yourself."
He hasn't even figured out this little thing in his mind, yet he still has the nerve to tease others. Qin Xinwei expressed disdain for this insincere and awkward boy, saying, "You're just a little brother."
Xiu Yangui didn't have time to pay attention to her. He picked up his pink backpack and took Xi Mo's arm to leave.
A classmate named Xiu came to look for Xi Mo, and then another classmate named Xiu also came to look for Xi Mo.
Those who were still in the classroom were lucky enough to watch a good show. They were all looking over here secretly, including Qin Rui.
But he is different from others. He stares at Xiu Changle with eager eyes. No one can break up his CP. His CP is awesome!
Xiu Changle's approach made Xiu Yangui tense up, and only Xi Mo, who was being held by him, felt it.
Xi Mo glanced at Xiu Yangui's gloomy and aggressive figure, then looked at Xiu Changle and said calmly, "What's the matter?"
Xiu Changle seemed oblivious to Xiu Yangui's fierce gaze and only looked at Xi Mo. "I'm a new transfer here and I'm not very familiar with the school and the surroundings, so I'd like you to take me for a walk."
"After all, you're the only one I know in this classroom, and this is the first time I meet everyone else. Is that okay, Xi Mo?"
What Xiu Changle said made sense, and if the two families became friends, the result would be a win-win situation. Whether from a small or big perspective, Xi Mo should not refuse. She should leave Xiu Yangui behind and go with Xiu Changle now.
But she refused.
"No, school is over, I need to leave."
After he finished speaking, he walked in front of Xiu Yangui and pulled him, "Let's go."
Xiu Changle refused to give up, "Where are you going?"
Xi Mo stopped and turned to look at him, "Internet cafe."
Xiu Changle was stunned for a moment, "Let's go to the Internet cafe and play games?"
"right."
"When did you learn to play games? Why haven't I heard Uncle Xi and Aunt Ruan mention it?"
Xiu Changle acted like he was very familiar with the Xi family. He kept trying to stop them from leaving and kept chatting with Xi Mo, which made Xiu Yangui's aura even colder and sharper. His cold eyes stared at Xiu Changle fiercely. A big battle was about to break out.
Xi Mo took a step forward and stood between the two of them.
"I don't know you well. What I do has nothing to do with you."
Pulling Xiu Yangui out of the classroom, Xi Mo caught a glimpse of Xiu Changle shifting his body as they walked. She stopped again, looked back at Xiu Changle, and lost her patience. "Is there anything else?"
Xiu Changle, who originally wanted to stick with them, stood there in a daze without moving forward. He hid his anger and frustration in his heart and could only watch the two of them leave.
Chen Nianyu followed the two of them. Before leaving the classroom, he glanced at Xiu Changle, whose face was gloomy. He was frightened by the jealousy and hatred in his eyes, and hurried to catch up with the two people in front.
"Wait for me, wait for me."
"Fuck, what does Xiu Changle mean? Didn't you see his expression just now? It was extremely ugly."
"Princess, I think he likes you very much. He always jumps in front of you. It seems that he doesn't like me and Ayan very much."
Xiu Yangui snorted coldly and blurted out: "You play well with me, it's strange that he likes you."
Chen Nianyu looked up at the sky in confusion, "Why doesn't he like you? Didn't you just meet?"
"Xiu Changle is mentally ill, is he jealous of your good looks?"
Xiu Yangui paused, noticing Xi Mo's gentle and slightly concerned look. He curled his lips at her and said casually, "He and I are half-brothers, and I'm the illegitimate child of the Xiu family."
Chen Nianyu immediately couldn't move anymore and stopped where he was, stunned. "What? What?"
"You, what? Is my hearing failing? Are you kidding me, Ayan?"
Xiu Yangui also stopped and turned to look at Chen Nianyu, his casual smile disappearing from his face. "You heard me right, I wasn't joking, even though it's really ridiculous."
"Come to think of it, I'm a few months older than him."
He said "especially ridiculous", but there was still no smile in Xiu Yangui's eyes, and his tone was also contemptuous and sarcastic. He looked at his good brother, and in his eyes he saw the young man smashing himself and deliberately revealing his old injuries to show the outside world how broken he felt.
Chen Nianyu took a few seconds to calm down, then he started cursing, "What a piece of shit! Your biological father, what a piece of shit!"
"He destroyed two families! He hurt two women! And two children!"
Chen Nianyu has known Xiu Yangui since he first entered high school. He found out that Xiu Yangui's parents had never attended parent-teacher meetings at school, and Xiu Yangui always filled in his own information when filling in the parent column when filling in the information. At that time, he had a vague feeling that Xiu Yangui's family should not be an ordinary family.
But he didn't expect it to be so outrageous and tortuous. However, Chen Nianyu is not the kind of person who would alienate his brothers because of such things. He makes friends not based on blood relationship or past, but only on appearance. Anyway, he feels more comfortable with Xiu Yangui than Xiu Changle.
Xiu Yangui relaxed a little, and once he opened his mouth, it was much easier for him to continue to pour out his heart. He was not trying to gain sympathy, he was just recounting what had happened in the past.
For the rest of the journey, Xiu Yangui and Xi Mo listened to Chen Nianyu continuously scolding the Xiu father and son.
"People from the same family are all alike, and none of them are good people."
"What? He dares to ask you to return to your roots? I think his ancestral grave has been dug up! He's never cared about you, never looked for you, and now he's suddenly looking for you, pretending to be a kind father. Isn't this just a weasel paying New Year's greetings to a chicken? He has no good intentions."
Xiu Yangui raised his eyebrows slightly, "I'm not a chicken."
"Oh, Ah Yan, this is just a metaphor. Tsk! I'm so angry! Both the father and the son are not good people. That Xiu Changle used to bully you, right? I'm so angry! You dare to touch my brother? You have to look at the owner before beating the dog!"
Pick again, "I'm not a dog."
"And Xiu Changle's mother, your biological father's wife, why doesn't she go and fight with her husband? Instead, she just stares at you and your mother, an orphan and a widow, and bullies you. Does that mean her husband has done nothing wrong?"
"She's such an old person, yet she's still so ignorant of the seriousness of the matter. Isn't she just bullying the weak and afraid of the strong?"
Still picking, “I’m not soft.”
Xiu Yangui felt much more relieved after listening to Chen Nianyu's greetings to the family of three. He found that it was not difficult to talk about this matter.
He should trust his friends more, believe that they will not leave him because of his identity and past, and believe that he is worthy of them staying by his side.
After a good scolding, Chen Nianyu felt relieved and started to take care of other things.
"Why is Xiu Changle clinging to the princess again? Oh, I forgot, you two know each other."
Xi Mo shook her head and said, "I don't know him, but I should have seen him before."
Chen Nianyu understood, "I understand. You've met so many people, it's normal to forget. Who is our princess? Noble people tend to forget things, and there's nothing worth remembering about this kind of person."
"He has a lot of messes to sort out at home, and he's trying to imitate Xi Ruoling by transferring schools. He's just imitating someone else."
"And his peach blossom eyes are too ugly. They are not as pretty as Ayan's. His skin is so pale, as if he is malnourished. He is not as healthy as Ayan. Ayan is the best like this, right, princess?"
