Chapter 118 Late
The school dormitory took advantage of the short holiday to carry out a school-wide cleaning.
The dormitory was temporarily uninhabitable, so Luo Yan returned home.
Jiang Zhao and her family went into the mountains.
Every day, he would receive various photos from Jiang Zhao.
There are scenery on various hilltops and hillsides, plants that are either strange or beautiful, and various small animals she encountered.
Jiang: There are hot springs on the mountain. We can go there and have some fun.
Jiang: This rock looks like a turtle!
Jiang: A squirrel ran into my house and stole some dried fruits. Unfortunately, it ran too fast and I couldn’t take a picture of it.
Jiang: Boyfriend, can you swim?
…
Even though she was out having fun, she sent messages much more frequently than usual.
Jiang Zhao already knew what was going on in his family.
She didn't mention it.
Instead, I was looking for various topics to chat with him.
It seemed like she wanted to share everything around her with him.
She cares about him.
He saved Jiang Zhaofa's words "I like him so much" and read them many times.
There's a new message from the other side.
Jiang: Here I come!
Luo Yan: I’m ready to go too.
Jiang: Hurry up, you'll be finished if you're late.
Luo Yan curled his lips.
Luo Yan: Okay.
When they met, he wanted to tell Jiang Zhao in person.
He likes her too.
"Xiao Yan is really amazing. He ranks among the top six in the country in any test."
"No, it seems their school has a top-ranked student this year."
The sound came from far away and then the bedroom door opened.
Xu Xin said, "Xiao Yan, it's time to go. Don't keep grandma and the others waiting."
Today is Xu Xin's birthday.
At this moment, they are going to their grandmother's house first and then have dinner together in the evening.
Because of his work, Xu Xin rarely holds birthday parties.
But recently there have been some problems with Luo Wenchuan's work, and Xu Xin always feels that she is being talked about by her brothers and sisters.
In addition, Xu Xin won a place in the Luoyan National Competition and was about to be admitted, so he could be said to be very proud.
Luo Yan said: "Didn't I say I wouldn't go?"
Xu Xin forced a smile: "Stop joking, it's Mom's birthday today."
Luo Yan said in a cold tone: "I have something to do, I won't go."
Xu Xin was stunned for a moment.
The person who was chatting with her also felt embarrassed: "I'm leaving first."
Luo Wenchuan came out of the bedroom opposite and saw two people standing frozen at the door. He asked, "What happened?"
Xu Xin said, "Your son doesn't want to go."
Luo Wenchuan said impatiently, "Don't be willful, Xiao Yan."
Luo Wenchuan is really busy.
I don't know who was meddling in this, but I wrote a letter of complaint to the school.
The letter said that he resold the transfer quota and embezzled research funds by collecting the money through labor fees paid to students.
Luo Wenchuan didn't know how much evidence was submitted, but the content of the letter was very detailed.
What was mentioned in the letter were all things that happened when the former principal was still in office.
Luo Wenchuan escaped the disaster at that time and thought it had nothing to do with him anymore.
I didn't expect it to be revealed again.
He was so worried about this that he had no intention of coming back.
But he is just like Xu Xin, he does not want to be laughed at by others.
Luo Wenchuan pinched the root of his nose: "My school is already annoying enough, you guys should just give me some peace of mind."
As he said this, his eyes swept across the faces of the two men.
There was still some worry on Xu Xin's face.
Luo Yan had a blank expression on his face, but there seemed to be something in his eyes...
ridicule?
Luo Wenchuan suddenly asked, "Did you write the report letter?"
Luo Yan didn't say anything.
Xu Xin asked: "Report what?"
Luo Wenchuan felt more confident.
His face was already red with anger, and he glared, "Do you know that your good son reported me to the school for reselling admissions quotas and embezzling funds?"
Xu Xin looked at Luo Yan and subconsciously asked, "How could it be?"
Luo Wenchuan couldn't believe it at first.
How old was Luo Yan when those things happened? He hadn't even graduated from elementary school, right?
However, Luo Yan's face was calm: "It's me."
Luo Wenchuan took a deep breath: "Are you crazy?"
"I'm very sober."
Xu Xin panicked: "Xiao Yan, how could you do this? Apologize to your father..."
Luo Wenchuan roared at Xu Xin, "Get out of here!"
The fear etched in her memory made Xu Xin shudder. She trembled and tried to excuse herself, "You two should have a good chat. I'll go wait for you guys."
As Xu Xin turned around, Luo Wenchuan raised his hand and slapped him.
Luo Yan didn't hide.
His face was hit and tilted to one side.
Luo Wenchuan was still not satisfied and raised his hand again.
But this time he was blocked by Luo Yan.
Luo Yan grabbed his arm. Luo Wenchuan struggled twice but failed. Then he realized that his son had grown taller than him.
And more thoughtful than him.
The young man was looking at him, with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
It's like saying, look, no matter how you pretend, you haven't changed at all.
His dignity as a father was challenged at this moment.
The resentment of being suspended.
The anger of being talked about.
At this moment, facing his son's contemptuous gaze, Luo Wenchuan finally lost his temper, and his disguised gentleness was torn off. He almost roared, "I shouldn't have given birth to you with your mother, that bitch."
The sound of the security door closing was only just heard.
Obviously, Xu Xin chose to deceive himself.
As expected, Luo Wenchuan knew it a long time ago.
They hated each other to death.
Still able to act as if no one else is around.
Luo Yan found it a little funny.
Before this, I was actually the same as them.
It's just that he's tired of it.
Luo Wenchuan calmed down a bit.
He does know.
Not only did he know that Xu Xin had cheated on him a long time ago, he also knew that Luo Yan knew.
I know better what Luo Yan cares about.
Luo Wenchuan suddenly laughed, his expression calming down. "I understand you look down on me and your mother. It's a shame. No matter what, you are still my child. Don't think you are great just because you have good grades. Even if I die, you still bleed my blood."
Luo Wenchuan saw that Luo Yan's usually indifferent expression had some cracks on it, and only then did he feel that his anger had been vented.
He broke free, picked up his coat, and spoke slowly, "When you were little, you thought our divorce would solve our problems. Now that you've grown up, you've stopped talking about it. I thought you'd matured. But let me tell you, if I'm a professor, you have a professor dad. If I get fired and go to jail, you have a criminal dad, just like having a cheating mom. No matter what you do, you can't change that."
"We are a family. There is no benefit in going against us. Think about it carefully."
Luo Wenchuan said this, opened the door, and walked out without looking back.
Luo Yan stood there for a moment.
The phone screen lights up.
Jiang: It’s so hot today!
Jiang: Are you in the car?
Luo Yan: Sorry, I have something to do.
He hesitated for a moment and added:
Luo Yan: I might be late.
Almost at the same time, a message came from the other side.
Jiang: Are you at home now?
Luo Yan: Yeah.
Luo Yan replied, turned off the phone, and didn't dare to look at it again.
Now he is the only one left.
Luo Wenchuan really knew him very well.
Those words seemed to tear him open at the chest, and the wind rushed in, leaving only emptiness and confusion.
The hallway mirror showed him in his current form.
Fingerprints were clearly visible on his face, and there was a small crack at the corner of his lip.
So ugly.
Jiang Zhao will be angry when he sees this.
Luo Yan thought about it, walked to the kitchen, found an ice pack from the refrigerator, and put it on his face.
The cold suddenly sobered him up.
What is he doing now?
Is he still thinking about meeting Jiang Zhao?
He boasted that he would be the best.
He hoped that Jiang Zhao could only look at her forever.
He said it so righteously.
But in reality, his life is still a mess.
Luo Wenchuan is right.
No matter what he does, they are his parents.
Can't change.
He was deeply trapped in it and tried to break free, but ended up failing.
At this moment, Luo Yan realized very clearly that he shouldn't go.
Luo Yan opened his phone and planned to tell Jiang Zhao that he couldn't go today.
But he looked at the screen and couldn't press the send button.
He scrolled through their chat history one by one.
Until I turned to the one about the holiday.
Jiang: I like you so much.
At that time, he replied below:
I miss you too.
Luo Yan stood up and walked out.
He knew he had a lot of reasons why he shouldn't look for Jiang Zhao again.
But he could only think of one reason now.
He misses her very much.
Luo Yan opened the door.
The bright summer sun shines through the windows at the end of the corridor.
Jiang Zhao was standing there.
The girl saw him and raised her lips: "Boyfriend, you are almost late."
