After Xie Qi learned that Yu Ze might have a crush on him, Xie Qi discovered that Yu Ze really liked to follow him, which made Xie Qi even more distressed.
Through careful observation, he discovered that Yu Ze was very likely suffering from a mental illness. Yu Ze disliked communicating with others and even showed no reaction to those who bullied him, as if he had no emotions at all.
He just attended classes mechanically every day, and unless Xie Qi took the initiative to talk to him, Yu Ze would not respond at all.
Xie Qi secretly speculated that Yu Ze might have been under tremendous pressure from the long-term bullying, which led to severe depression. This speculation shocked Xie Qi and made him very worried.
So, after realizing this possibility, Xie Qi immediately searched for relevant information on the Internet.
[If a depressed person has a crush on someone, what serious consequences will occur if the crush rejects him/her? ]
However, when Xie Qi saw the answers he found online, he felt even more depressed.
The answer shows that if the depression patient's condition is mild, he or she may experience cognitive distortion and fall into "all or nothing" thinking, "I will never be loved, I am worthless."
What makes Xie Qi even more terrified is that in extreme cases, people with depression may have thoughts of self-harm or even suicide.
When he saw this, he was so scared that he quickly exited the webpage and dared not continue reading.
He had never met anyone with depression before, so when Xie Qi was thinking that Yu Ze might have suicidal thoughts because he rejected him, Xie Qi's hair stood on end.
Xie Qi was stunned for a while, then opened his phone to search again. [What terrible things will happen if a depressed person has a secret crush on someone and is exposed by their crush?]
However, the search results below were all negative, which made Xie Qi decide that he couldn't let Yu Ze know that he already knew that Yu Ze liked him.
However, what Xie Qi didn't know was that Yu Ze had no human emotions at all. Everything he did was just the same as it had been for tens of millions of years, and it was not the depression that Xie Qi mentioned.
However, Xie Qi, who didn't understand the situation, wanted to prevent Yu Ze's fragile heart from being hurt, so he pretended nothing had happened and continued to be Yu Ze's classmate.
Whenever someone tried to bully Yu Ze, Xie Qi would intervene. This made the students at the school even more certain that this transfer student was determined to make things difficult for Yu Ze.
Even Yu Yangsheng thought that Xie Qi's behavior was a blatant provocation to him.
As a result, Xie Qi naturally became the target of those people's bullying. However, those people were no match for Xie Qi at all, and could only flee in disgrace every time. This undoubtedly made Yu Yangsheng even more angry.
At noon that day, Xie Qi had just walked out of the bathroom when he found that Yu Ze, who was supposed to be waiting for him at the door, was nowhere to be seen.
What's worse is that Yu Yangsheng and several of his accomplices were standing at the door with a fierce look in their eyes, and it was obvious that they were there specifically waiting for Xie Qi to show up.
Xie Qi's heart tightened when he saw this, and he quickly asked, "Where's Yu Ze?!"
Yu Yangsheng lazily leaned against the mottled wall, a cigarette between his fingers emitting curls of smoke, a smug smile of confidence on his face. "He's gone, why are you asking me?"
Xie Qi clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white: "Besides you, who else would bully him?"
Yu Yangsheng suddenly laughed out loud, his smile filled with deceptive disgust. "Xie Qi, you've beaten so many of me, but I don't care."
He slowly pulled a gold card from his pocket, which gleamed alluringly in the sunlight. "One million, and help me teach Yu Ze a lesson. How's the deal?"
Yu Yangsheng narrowed his eyes, as if he had already seen Yu Ze breaking down and crying when he was betrayed by his most trusted friend.
The students around them all held their breath, some even swallowed unconsciously, their eyes gleaming with greed. That was one million! They might never earn that much in their entire lives.
Xie Qi's eyes grew colder. He finally understood why Yu Ze trusted him just because of such a small act of kindness.
"Where is Yu Ze!" Xie Qi's voice was like ice, and every word was chilling.
Yu Yangsheng was so shocked by the look that he took a half step back. He cursed in anger and shame: "Damn it, don't be so shameless!"
Xie Qi stood by the toilet door frame, his eyes grim. He casually picked up the water-stained toilet plunger behind the door.
He threw his right hand and hit Yu Yangsheng in the face. Before the other party could react, he picked up the mop dripping with dirty water and swung it hard, splashing dirty water everywhere. The group of people immediately scattered like rats whose nest was blown away.
Yu Yangsheng's face turned pale, his entire body trembling with anger. Another stream of sewage, with the distinct smell of a toilet, hit him, making him step back in disgust. Several of his followers had already hidden far away, holding their noses and feeling nauseous.
"Madman! Just wait for me! I will kill you first!" Yu Yangsheng gritted his teeth and said this harshly. He didn't care about teaching the other party a lesson. He wanted to go back and take off this dirty clothes immediately.
Just as Xie Qi was about to catch up, Yu Ze's voice suddenly came from behind, stopping him in his tracks. Xie Qi turned around and saw Yu Ze standing there, so he put down the mop in his hand and quickly walked up to him.
"Where did you go just now?" Xie Qi asked with a frown, his tone full of obvious worry.
Yu Ze grabbed Xie Qi's wrist and led him towards the classroom. "I'm going to the office." He paused and said in a low voice, "Don't fight anymore."
Yu Ze knew that in this world, the rejection of Heaven could strike at any moment. No one could predict the manner of death, and fighting could be the trigger for danger.
"Why?" Xie Qi stopped abruptly, his voice unconsciously rising a few degrees. "They bully me, so I can't fight back?"
However, Yu Ze, who strictly abides by the rules, said: "School rules strictly prohibit fighting. There are many ways to solve problems. There is no need to use violence. Fighting is a bad student."
Xie Qi felt a surge of anger when he heard this. He was clearly speaking up for Yu Ze, but the person involved acted as if it had nothing to do with him.
The other party didn't mind being bullied, so why should he care? He was the young master of the Xie family, and this was the first time he took the initiative to care about others, but in the end he seemed to be meddling in other people's business and was rejected.
Xie Qi shook off Yu Ze's hand and said angrily, "Yes! You are a good student. You abide by the school rules and don't fight. Did they let you go? There are many ways to solve the problem. Why don't you tell the teacher? Will the teacher care?"
Xie Qi's voice became louder and louder, almost a roar in the end. He was extremely disappointed with Yu Ze's weak character who didn't know how to resist.
"I don't care about you anymore!" Xie Qi said this and turned away without looking back.
Back in the classroom, Xie Qi plopped down in his seat, then slumped over the table like a deflated ball. He felt so aggrieved. He was clearly helping Yu Ze, but Yu Ze actually called him a bad student.
