Ren Xingmei was lying on the bed, but she couldn't fall asleep at all, and was chatting on her cell phone.

She was playing games when a fierce fight was going on in the banquet hall. If Gu Yueyan hadn't called her and asked her where she was, telling her that a fight was going on in the banquet hall and asking her not to go there, Ren Xingmei would not have known that something had happened.

When Ren Xingmei went to the balcony, she heard the sound of collisions and clashing coming from the top floor of the banquet hall from time to time, and she immediately became anxious.

She saw her brother go to the banquet with her own eyes, but she was still rational and knew that it was meaningless to rush over with her own strength. She did not act impulsively, but kept the signals open in various chat groups at all times and called the police.

After nearly half an hour of agony, she finally heard the sound of police sirens, and saw cars driving into the campus from the balcony. Many people wearing the same vests as Qiao Muyi's sister surrounded the cafeteria.

Soon, teachers informed all chat groups that the criminals had been repelled and asked all students not to leave the dormitory, to call out loudly if they met strangers, and not to leak video footage of the incident. Violators would face the maximum penalty of expulsion.

Knowing that it was finally safe, Ren Xingmei hurried to the downstairs of the dormitory and waited. She waited for more than an hour before she saw her brother coming back. However, when he came back, he was very tired. After taking a shower, he lay down on the bed and fell asleep. Therefore, Ren Xingmei did not disturb him, but stayed to take care of him.

However, seeing that her brother was not injured, Ren Xingmei was relieved and opened her phone to reply: "My Ren Suo has returned home safely, and Teacher Dong is also safe and sound. Thank you for your concern."

In the chat group 'Xianyu and Her Three Concubines', someone immediately responded -

'I only envy the salted fish, not the immortals': "I'm glad that Brother Ren is okay. After encountering such a big thing, ヾ(′?ω?｀)? I must have a good meal tomorrow to calm down!"

'Ancient words': "o(*￣︶￣*)o I'm fine"

'Yu De Lian Yi': "Yeah, I heard that Brother Ren worked very hard to treat the wounded after the battle. He also fought very hard."

'I only envy the salted fish, not the immortals': "ヾ(′?ω?｀)? Why don't we bring a big cake over to comfort them!"

'Gu Yan': "You obviously just wanted to eat. Have you finished reviewing for the advanced math test in a week? Even if something goes wrong, you won't miss the exams for academic subjects."

'I only envy salted fish, not immortals': "(っ*′Д`)っ squad leader, save me!"

'Little Star': "It's just that I don't know why my Ren Suo didn't talk after coming back. He went to bed right after taking a bath. I even covered him with the quilt."

'Rain Ripples': "Maybe it's because I saw too many corpses and wounded people? I heard that when humans see the corpses of their own kind for the first time, they will become psychologically depressed because of empathy."

'Gu Yan': "It could also be that you see others getting hurt, but you yourself are not, and so you feel the guilt of a survivor, thinking 'Why am I the only one who is fine?'"

'Gu Yan': "Why don't we go visit Teacher Dong and Ren Suo tomorrow?"

'I only envy the salted fish, not the immortals': "So we should eat delicious food together to comfort them? I agree!"

Ren Xingmei hesitated for a moment, thinking that there seemed to be no reason to refuse, so she replied: "If my Ren Suo and Teacher Dong are in good condition, I will inform you. It's late now, good night everyone."

Without continuing to read the messages in the chat group, Ren Xingmei put down her phone, turned her head, and moved her slightly longer hair to the other side so that her head would not press on her hair, and prepared to go to bed.

Her mood tonight was like a roller coaster. Ren Suo was in danger, Ren Suo was safe, Ren Suo came back, Ren Suo stopped talking, but she couldn't tell her parents about this. She knew that Ren Suo definitely didn't want her parents to worry about him.

Fortunately, there were a few friends with whom she could discuss this matter, which helped to ease Ren Xingmei's inner distress.

This 'Xianyu and her three concubines' was a group created by Lin Xianyu, and there were four people in it: her, Lin Xianyu, Gu Yueyan, and Qin Lian.

Ever since Lin Xianyu had a falling out with her other two roommates a few days ago, Lin Xianyu has been pestering Ren Xingmei every day, and Ren Xingmei has made friends with Qin Lian according to Ren Suo's instructions. However, Qin Lian is indeed a very good girl, so they became familiar with each other in a few days.

Needless to say, Lin Xianyu and Gu Yueyan, Qin Lian also knew Ren Suo and Dong Chengling. Although they were in different classes, they were all extraordinary students, so naturally they had many common topics and could share and discuss anything they encountered in the group.

In addition to them, Ren Xingmei naturally has many friends.

But when she came to Tianlian College, she encountered troubles and depression here. Even if she confided it to her high school friends, they could not understand and could only keep complimenting her, "It's great to be able to go to a training school."

Ren Xingmei knew very early that she would meet many friends on the train of life, but friends would always go their separate ways due to circumstances, and then she would meet new friends at the next station.

This is not heartlessness, but because life is like this. We are all intersecting straight lines, approaching, intersecting, and then separating. Only a few people can maintain close relationships all the time.

Ren Xingmei didn’t know whether these three new friends would become her long-term friends in the future, but she didn’t really care—because she already had someone she could stay with until the end of the world.

She and he are bound by blood, and their relationship is like the double helix structure in genes, always together and never separated.

The base pair that connects her and him is undoubtedly——

money.

"I won't let a bad woman take my money...it's all mine..." Ren Xingmei muttered and fell asleep hugging the pillow.

…

On the other side, Gu Yueyan, who was lying on her side in bed, was looking at the chat history on her phone. The blue light shone on her face. Lin Xianyu, who had just come back from brushing her teeth in the bathroom, glanced at her and was immediately frightened: "Class monitor, you are so scary!"

"Really?" Gu Yueyan turned over and no longer faced her. Lin Xianyu rolled her eyes, crawled to her side, grabbed her shoulders, and whispered in her ear: "Are you angry? No, Teacher Dong and Ren Suo are fine, you should rest assured."

"Of course I'm relieved that Teacher Dong is fine. What does it have to do with me whether Ren Suo is okay or not?" Gu Yueyan snorted twice and said disdainfully.

Lin Xianyu, who knew the monitor's temper, knew to ignore the second half of her sentence. He frowned and thought, "Then why are you unhappy? Let me think about it...

Um... we were chatting just now, and the reason you were unhappy... was it because I wanted to eat cake? No way, no way.

Xiao Lian didn't say anything, so it could only be Xiao Xingxing... Oh! Is it because she calls Brother Ren 'my Ren Suo'! ? "

“No way!” Gu Yueyan pushed Lin Xianyu out of her bed in embarrassment. “I’m angry that you’re always eating!”

"Impossible, this is obviously the reason. I swear in the name of the class monitor that there is only one truth. Please call me Detective Salted Fish!"

Lin Xianyu pushed the non-existent frame of his glasses and said, "How about I also call Brother Ren 'my Ren Suo', so that it won't be awkward for you to call him that too..."

"Xianyu! Don't ask me to borrow your advanced math notes anymore!"

Lin Xianyu was startled, and rushed over to hug the naked Gu Yueyan, and kept acting like a spoiled child: "(っ*′Д`)っSquad Leader, save me!"

————————

It was a little after six in the morning and the sky was already bright. The sun covered the earth with a golden wedding dress woven by the morning light, a backless version at that.

Ren Xingmei hesitated twice and felt her eyes were a little dazzling, as if they were illuminated by the sunlight outside the window. She turned over, changed direction and continued to sleep.

"...Huha, Huha, Huha, Huha..."

A slit appeared in Ren Xingmei's tightly closed eyes, and her cicada-wing-like eyelashes trembled.

"...Huha, Huha, Huha, Huha..."

The teachers' dormitory was very quiet. There was no noise except the birds singing in the morning, not even the sound of cars. Therefore, the sound of rapid breathing, even though it seemed very faint due to the obstruction of walls and doors, was still clearly audible.

Lifting the quilt, Ren Xingmei tiptoed out of bed, picked up her cell phone, and was ready to call the police at any time.

Ren Suo was so tired yesterday that he must not have gotten up yet. Even if he got up, he just went to the toilet and would definitely not make such a noise.

Then the person making the noise in the living room must be an uninvited guest, but Ren Xingmei was not sure if it was a criminal. Maybe it was a wild cat that came in to cause trouble.

Ren Suo once said that there was a black cat downstairs that had a grudge against him. Although Ren Xingmei felt that this should be an illusion caused by the sequelae of Ren Suo's brain damage caused by going to college, now that even spiritual energy can be revived, it is not impossible for the black cat to come and seek revenge.

So Ren Xingmei pressed the alarm button with one hand, then slowly opened the door to see what was happening outside.

After opening the door, the heavy breathing sound became clearer, and it was obviously a male's breathing. Ren Xingmei's heart tightened, and she wondered if the injured gangster had come to her house to recuperate?

But this breathing sound was obviously from exercising. Did the criminal go to her house to exercise? Are criminals so stupid nowadays? Could it be that... the criminal was doing a kind of exercise that could help him relieve stress?

Just as Lu Xun once said, when Ren Xingmei heard the sound of breathing, she thought of exercise, and then thought of some kind of exercise that could relieve stress, and then thought that this kind of exercise needed an object. However, Ren Xingmei is fine now, but there is a sleeper at home who is at the mercy of others, so the person who was used as the object by the criminals is obvious -

"Could it be that my brother was..." Ren Xingmei's heart sank. Without caring to stay calm, she immediately opened the door and looked into the living room. She immediately saw a white, sweaty body moving up and down -

"……elder brother."

In the living room, the man who took off his clothes and was doing push-ups was Ren Suo.

Ren Xingmei called out to him, but Ren Suo didn't respond, so she walked up to Ren Suo, squatted down, and said angrily, "Why are you doing push-ups so early in the morning?"

After sleeping soundly last night, she got up early this morning to do push-ups. Ren Xingmei felt that all her worries last night were in vain. Moreover, Ren Suo didn't say a word to her last night, so she naturally felt a little angry and aggrieved.

However, when she saw Ren Suo's raised face, all the grievances in her heart were blown away like a typhoon, and all the unhappiness was completely blown away. Everything disappeared into thin air, and instead, waves of maternal compassion emerged.

Ren Suo had deep dark circles under his eyes and looked extremely tired, but his eyes were full of tears. The tears drew grooves on his smooth face, making him look sad and helpless.

But he still did push-ups very firmly and in a very standard manner, even deliberately maintaining a strange breathing pattern, and did not forget to practice while exercising!

I even changed the moves a bit by doing narrow-grip push-ups and wide-grip push-ups!

At this time, Ren Xingmei remembered yesterday's chat records.

——Seeing a corpse, the psychological depression caused by empathy.

——The guilt of a survivor who wonders, "Why am I the only one who is fine?"

Ren Suo suddenly started exercising early in the morning, but his face was so sad that he couldn't even hold back his tears, but he still insisted on exercising.

It's so abnormal, but also normal.

With Ren Xingmei's clever mind, she quickly figured out the real reason:

It must be because Ren Suo was in the battle yesterday and couldn't participate in the front-line combat. He could only be a medic and watched his friends get injured and fight while he was powerless to do anything, so he felt extremely guilty!

After coming back and taking a nap, Ren Suo finally couldn't stand the guilt in his heart anymore, so he decided to become stronger and started exercising early in the morning!

However, the more he exercised, the more he recalled last night's tragedy and his own incompetence, which made him so sad, but his body honestly did not stop!

Looking at her brother like this, Ren Xingmei's heart melted like ice cream.

That’s right, now is the time for sister Jie Yuhua to come online. It’s time to show her gentle charm!

"Brother," Ren Xingmei touched Ren Suo's head, "I'm by your side. I will accompany you."

"It's not your fault, you did a good job."

Ren Suo looked at her blankly, his pupils seemed to be shining, "It's not my fault..."

"Yes." Ren Xingmei brought a towel over and wiped Ren Suo's tears: "Stop, we still have a lot of time in the future, there is no rush to exercise."

"There is still a lot of time in the future." Ren Suo's eyes became brighter and brighter, but his body was still moving - this time he changed to plank.

"Brother, you..." Ren Xingmei's voice became softer: "I know you hate your own incompetence last night, so you started exercising early in the morning, right?"

Ren Suo opened his mouth and finally nodded with tears in his eyes: "Yes!"

"You look very tired. Don't you want to stop?" Ren Xingmei asked softly.

Ren Suo shook his head and gritted his teeth and said, "According to the plan... we can't stop yet."

"Plan?" Ren Xingmei was slightly startled. "Don't you even have some time to rest?"

Ren Suo's face was filled with sorrow, and he said in a trembling voice: "Without the accumulation of small steps, one cannot reach a thousand miles; without the accumulation of small streams, one cannot form a river or sea..."

Unexpectedly, Ren Suo had such awareness. Ren Xingmei patted his head again and said, "Brother, since you have a plan, I won't persuade you. But I will always be with you. If you have anything, don't keep it in your heart, tell me.

I believe that you can always make the most correct decision, brother."

Ren Suo looked at Ren Xingmei and couldn't help crying: "Yes!"

Seeing that Ren Suo was crying again because of her comfort, Ren Xingmei quickly wiped his tears and said, "Then I'll go wash up first. Let's go have breakfast together later. Don't cry."

After Ren Xingmei left, Ren Suo also stood up - this time the exercise was changed to star jump, which was a very tiring exercise with a very large amplitude.

The damn small world game console also specially compiled a set of physical exercise movements for him, which, combined with the breathing method of "Xuan Jun Secret Record", can effectively strengthen muscles.

Of course, it would be more tiring for Ren Suo to do it.

Feeling the exhaustion, aches and pains in his body, Ren Suo could only comfort himself mentally.

I did nothing wrong!

There is still a lot of time in the future, just get through these few days!

I always make the most correct decisions, so I will treat these days as special training!

The tears I am crying now are the water that entered my brain before, so I can’t cry, there is no water in my brain, exercising is correct, studying is correct, and practicing is also correct!

【Physical training, end.】

Noticing the information that suddenly popped up in his mind, before Ren Suo could feel happy, he got the next piece of information:

【Learning, start, time 60 minutes,

Note: After learning begins, the game character automatically blocks all irrelevant signals from the outside world, just like being in a small dark room.

Requirements: The effective learning time is 60 minutes, and a judgment is made every minute. If the effective learning time judgment is not passed in the minute, 1 merit point will be automatically consumed in the next minute to accelerate thinking, until the total learning time reaches 60 minutes, or the merit point is consumed. 】

Soon, as if in the blink of an eye, Ren Suo found himself sitting in front of a desk. It was pitch black around him, with only a desk lamp, an Oxford dictionary and English textbooks in front of him.

If you don't learn, all your merits will be deducted, and you will have to stay in the small dark room until they are all deducted.

“The world is not worth it.” — Ren Suo
