Chapter 33
This incident ended with Cheng Xiangheng and Jia Kongtiao being punished. Ping An was dissatisfied and wanted to protest, but was severely warned by the teacher.
Jia Kongtiao's family has some background, and the person who started the fight was Cheng Xiangheng. The fact that both of them were punished shows that the school is biased towards Cheng Xiangheng.
But Ping'an just felt wronged. Cheng Xiangheng has never been a troublemaker, so why should he be treated like this?
Ping'an walked towards the classroom, but met Jia Kongtiao wearing a mask in the small garden.
Cheng Xiangheng beat him severely, and logically he should be in the hospital now.
Ping An said cautiously, "What do you want to do?"
Jia Kongtiao only showed a pair of eyes, and he stared at Ping An closely, like a hungry wolf staring at a piece of tender meat.
This soft flesh had no ability to resist, but the blades around it were too fierce, so he couldn't bite it and could only turn around in place anxiously.
Jia Kongtiao's voice was low: "Ping'an, it was Cheng Xiangheng who provoked me first and beat me up afterwards. Why can't you comfort me~"
Ping An said firmly, "Xiang Heng isn't the type to start trouble. You must have done something to make him attack you."
As the sun sets, Ping An's face is full of determination. The warm yellow light glazes her snow-white cheeks, which is so beautiful that it makes people's hearts beat fast and heartbroken.
At this moment, Jia Kongtiao realized that no matter what he said, Ping An would protect Cheng Xiangheng.
Even if Cheng Xiangheng attacked first, she would still stand firmly on his side.
"Zhou Ping'an! People like Cheng Xiangheng are evil! Do you think he has pure feelings for you? You two are not cousins!"
"Don't worry about what kind of person Cheng Xiangheng is." Ping An looked straight ahead and wanted to move forward. "In my heart, he is the most important person to me, that's all."
Jia Kongtiao blocked Ping An's way. He was much taller than Ping An, and at the moment he looked very frightening, "But he's a bastard! He'll play you to pieces!"
Although Ping An is timid, even a rabbit bites when it is cornered. She can tolerate being slandered, but she simply cannot tolerate being slandered in front of her by Cheng Xiangheng!
Ping An suddenly shouted, "What do you know, you little brat! Cheng Xiangheng is my family and my friend. I won't allow you to slander him!"
After saying that, Ping An seized the opportunity, kicked Jia Kongtiao, and then ran forward without looking back!
Jia Kongtiao didn't feel any pain when Ping'an kicked him, but he felt a dull pain in his heart.
Tonight, Cheng Xiangheng did not ride his bike to take Ping An home. Instead, the two walked back hand in hand.
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the young man, making him look quiet and dazzling.
Ping An asked Cheng Xiangheng, "Why did you fight with Jia Kongtiao today?"
Cheng Xiangheng said: "I just didn't like him, so I beat him up."
Ping An glared at Cheng Xiangheng: "But it's very dangerous. What if we can't win..."
Although Cheng Xiangheng looked very capable in fighting from today's scene, Ping An still couldn't help but worry.
Cheng Xiangheng took Ping'an's schoolbag, put it on his back, held her hand with his left hand, and then suddenly asked out of the blue: "Am I the same as others in your heart?"
Ping An thought without hesitation: "Of course it's different. How can others compare with you?"
Cheng Xiangheng glanced at Ping An gently and continued to ask, "What's the difference?"
Ping An said as a matter of course: "You are my family, of course you are different from others. In my heart, they are not as important as a hair on your head."
Cheng Xiangheng suddenly stopped, lowered his head and kissed Ping An's lips. His voice was a little hoarse: "Would your family do this to you?"
The midsummer evening breeze suddenly blew past, lifting Ping'an's long hair, making it difficult for her to see Cheng Xiangheng's expression at the moment.
The boy was tall and straight, like the cleanest and most upright pine tree in the school. He looked at her quietly, waiting for her answer.
Her heart was pounding, and she didn't know how to answer in such a hurry.
Cheng Xiangheng quietly clenched his fists, mentally preparing for the worst possible outcome. If Ping An wanted to kick him out of the house, he would take her with him.
The next moment, Ping An realized something. He stood on tiptoe and kissed the corner of Cheng Xiangheng's lips: "Does this comfort you?"
Ping An smiled brightly and looked at Cheng Xiangheng expectantly, his eyes clear without a trace of impurities.
Cheng Xiangheng suddenly relaxed his fingers. For a moment, he didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
She didn't understand his thoughts, she was ignorant and clean.
He lowered his eyes and kissed the girl's lips.
This time it was not as superficial as before, but instead it was scorching and full of aggression, making people feel suffocated, but also inexplicably looking forward to it.
Ping'an blushed, but instead of avoiding him, she held Cheng Xiangheng's sleeve tightly, trying to accept the boy's enthusiasm.
——
Cheng Xiangheng became even more aggressive, letting her go to bed at 12 o'clock every day. He used a very rough method to make Ping An understand his thinking on solving problems, open up her logical thinking, and cram knowledge into her.
The final exams were coming soon, and Ping An jumped into Class 20. Cheng Xiangheng was still the top student in the first grade of the city's No. 1 Middle School, and more and more students came to Cheng Xiangheng for extra lessons.
During the holidays, Ping An wanted to go out to work to reduce Cheng Xiangheng's burden, but Cheng Xiangheng didn't let her go and increased her daily pocket money from five yuan to six yuan. Six yuan could buy two steamed buns, a bowl of cold noodles, and an old popsicle.
Cheng Xiangheng became even busier. He went out early and came back late every day. He was either tutoring students in a cram school or working as a tutor.
Ping An was afraid of being a tutor and wanted to go with him, but was rejected. She had no choice but to stay at home every day, doing the homework assigned by Cheng Xiangheng. Occasionally, she would go out to play with her classmates, but staying at home was boring.
So, Ping An sneaked into the milk tea shop to work.
Working is really tiring, especially a summer job like Ping An. There are no benefits at all, and once you get busy, you have no time to rest.
Fortunately, the sisters in the store saw that Ping'an was cute and sweet-spoken, so they helped her avoid many problems, which allowed her to work safely during this summer vacation.
In the evening, Ping'an walked home briskly. She earned eighty yuan today and bought a pen for Cheng Xiangheng. She had twenty yuan left, which she put in her pocket, intending to save some money.
Ping'an walked through the alley, turned on the flashlight and headed home as usual.
Just then, she saw a man standing in the dim alley. The man was tall and strong, with a slightly bent back. His face was hidden in the darkness, facing Ping'an.
Ping'an's heart skipped a beat and he turned and ran without hesitation!
However, the person behind him suddenly said, "Daya!"
Ping An was stunned and turned around in disbelief: "Who are you?"
The man walked over quickly and stopped in front of Ping An: "I'm your father! I finally found you!"
Ping'an doesn't remember what her father looks like at all. Her only impression of her father is the curse from her mother, cursing him for going out to work and not caring about his wife and children.
Ping An was stunned when he suddenly saw his father: "I have never seen my father, how can you prove that you are my father?"
Zhou Jianshe took out a photo and said, "Do you remember? Your grandfather raised you when you were little. We don't have any photos together. This is what I looked like when I was young."
Ping'an had seen this photo in the old photo album at his grandparents' house. Ping'an looked at the weathered middle-aged man in front of him, and tears suddenly fell.
"dad!"
Ping An returned home in a daze. Cheng Xiangheng was already waiting for her at home. She came back very late tonight and he was very unhappy.
Ping An sat on Cheng Xiangheng's lap and buried her head in his neck.
She has lived with Cheng Xiangheng since she was ten years old. They have lived together for six years. Ping An has long been accustomed to going to Cheng Xiangheng for help when she has any problems.
Cheng Xiangheng noticed that Ping An was in a bad mood, and his originally ugly expression relaxed a little: "What's wrong, An An?"
The next second, hot liquid fell on his neck.
