Chapter 15
Ji Rang didn't come to school again for the next week.
It is common for him to skip classes. The teacher can't do anything about it as he has become accustomed to it. In addition to giving him a demerit and a report, the teacher will also call the number his parents left at the beginning of the school year.
But no one ever answers.
In the teaching career, you will always encounter such self-destructive students, and you will not know where to start to help them. Liu Yao, the head teacher of Class 9, took a look at the noisy poor students in the back row of the classroom, shook his head and sighed, and put away the lesson plan.
After school on Friday, Qu Dazhuang and a few others made an appointment to go to an Internet cafe to play games.
Luo Bing rushed over from the next classroom and asked, "When are we going to look for Brother Rang?"
Qu Dazhuang scolded him: "What are you looking for? I hate being disturbed when I'm resting, and you're asking for a beating?"
Luo Bing said embarrassedly: "He hasn't come to school for a week, I'm worried."
Qu Dazhuang didn't care: "It's not the first time. Why are you talking so much? I won't take you with me when I play with you!"
A few people were walking out while playing and joking. When they walked out of the back door of the classroom, they saw a girl with a ponytail standing there quietly with a schoolbag on her back. When she saw them, her wet eyes immediately curved into a smile.
Qu Dazhuang was startled and nudged Liu Haiyang with his elbow: "What is she going to do?"
Liu Haiyang said hesitantly: "Are you here to look for Brother Rang?"
Sure enough, the girl handed over a piece of notebook paper with the words "I want to find Ji Rang" written on it.
Qu Dazhuang had a complicated expression: "I don't know sign language." Then he thought, "Brother Rang probably doesn't know it either, how do you communicate with her normally?"
Liu Haiyang: "Just let me yell."
He took out his cell phone and typed to Qi Ying: We don’t know where he is either.
What a joke. There are so many girls in school who want to find Ji Rang. Should I ask every one of them and tell them all? I'm afraid I'll be beaten to death by Brother Rang.
Several teenagers pushed and shoved each other and walked quickly towards the corridor entrance. Qi Ying was stunned for a moment, then trotted over to catch up.
I followed them all the way out of the school gate.
Qu Dazhuang looked back from time to time and said, "Fuck, she's still following me. What is she trying to do?"
Following her all the way to the entrance of the Internet cafe, Luo Bing poked Liu Haiyang: "Didn't you say that I should treat her differently? If I knew that we brought her into the Internet cafe, would I be angry?"
When a few people heard this, they realized it was the truth and didn't dare to go in.
Qi Ying finally caught up with them. She was a little out of breath after jogging all the way. Her cheeks were flushed. She pursed her lips obediently and looked at them expectantly.
Who can resist this look?
Qu Dazhuang was the first to surrender: "Forget it, let her go and have a look. It's not certain whether I will open the door for her or not."
He typed Ji Rang's home address in a memo and showed it to Qi Ying.
Qi Ying took a photo with her phone and silently said to several people, "Thank you."
…
Ji Rang lives in a new building near the suburbs.
The large apartment, which was just delivered two years ago, is suitable for three generations to live in. Haicheng's housing prices have skyrocketed in recent years, and Ji Rang didn't even blink when he bought this large house that was completely unsuitable for him.
At that time, Ji Weiyan did not stop him, but just said: Buy it if you like it.
He also sent someone to help him buy furniture.
It’s a bit far from the school and you have to take two buses to get there.
When Qi Ying got off the car, it was already dark and drizzling.
Ji Rang lived in Unit 2, Building 8, which was some distance away from the community gate. Qi Ying filled out the visit registration, put her finger on her brow, and trotted in.
She found Ji Rang's home according to the house number. The heavy security door emitted a cold light under the incandescent light in the corridor. She brushed off the rain on her hair and clothes and rang the doorbell.
I rang it three times and waited for five minutes, but no one came to open the door.
Qi Ying rubbed the tiny goose bumps on her arms that appeared due to the cold, thought for a moment, and sat down at the door.
This wait lasted for an hour.
During this time, she also found time to finish a math test.
Just as I was taking out an English paper to do a cloze test, the elevator at the entrance of the corridor opened with a ding. Ji Rang walked in holding a black umbrella, shaking off the water.
Seeing the girl sitting at the door doing homework, his pupils suddenly dilated and he froze in place.
Qi Ying couldn't hear anything and didn't know someone was coming. She was still writing with her head buried in her heart. When she encountered a question she didn't know how to answer, she tilted her head and bit the tip of her pen, with distress on her little face.
It was windy and rainy outside, and a cold wind blew in from time to time. She rubbed her arms in the cold, thought for a moment, and put the math paper she had finished on her arm to block the wind. Perhaps she felt that her method was quite useful, and she tilted her head and smiled.
Ji Rang held the umbrella tightly, his fingers so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
He took two steps forward slowly, casting a shadow on the ground. Qi Ying caught a glimpse of him from the corner of her eye, and when she looked up, her eyes suddenly curved. She put away the test paper, stood up holding her schoolbag, and smiled at him obediently.
Ji Rang felt as if his heart was being grabbed by a hand and he couldn't even breathe.
He actually wanted to curse.
Does she even know what she is doing?
This place is dark and far away. What if he doesn't come back today? How long does she plan to wait?
It's raining heavily outside and there's no taxi available. How can she go back?
It’s located in the suburbs and there are few people. What should we do if we encounter bad guys?
All sorts of thoughts rushed into his mind at once, causing his head to ache. In the end, he could only say one word: "Fuck."
He strode over, took out the key to open the door, pushed Qi Ying into the house almost roughly, threw the black umbrella aside, and rushed into the bathroom.
Qi Ying staggered after being pushed by him, still a little dazed, not knowing why the general got angry when he saw her, and stood blankly at the entrance. Ji Rang soon came out again, holding a large white bath towel in his hand, and wrapped Qi Ying up from head to toe.
He looked gloomy and his movements were rough. Qi Ying carefully observed his expression and felt that he might have come to the wrong place again.
She lowered her head dejectedly, feeling upset alone.
She was just worried about him.
Ji Rang opened the refrigerator and took a look around, then went to the kitchen to boil a pot of hot water without taking anything.
After boiling, he took two cups of water and poured it back and forth. When the water temperature dropped to a level that was no longer scalding hot, he took out a handful and put it in Qi Ying's hands, commanding in a cold voice, "Drink!"
Qi Ying took it obediently, lowered her head and drank the water in small sips. She was afraid of making him angry and did not dare to look him in the eye again.
Ji Rang was angry alone for a while, and seeing her depressed look, he began to reflect on himself.
Was I too aggressive just now?
You can’t blame him, who wouldn’t be angry?
Qi Ying finished drinking the hot water, and slowly took out her phone to type. Ji Rang stood by and watched from the side, her delicate index finger moving slowly on the nine-square grid like a snail, writing word by word: Will you go back to school next week?
Ji Rang said: "You are the study committee member, and you are also supervising whether I go to school or not."
Once he spoke faster, Qi Ying couldn't understand him. Under that blank yet clear gaze, Ji Rang nodded with his thin lips pursed.
She was a little happy, but remembering that the general was still angry, she didn't dare to get carried away and lowered her head and typed slowly: Then I'll go back.
Ji Rang typed with a blank expression: Do you know it’s raining heavily outside?
Qi Ying said: I don’t know.
Fuck it.
Ji Rang was so angry that he almost laughed: Then how do you plan to go back?
Qi Ying had a feeling that if she didn't answer this question well, she might get beaten. Her fingertips were shaking, and she hesitated for a long time, not daring to press the key.
Ji Rang raised one corner of his mouth, his eyes drooped slightly, and smiled chillily, saying with his lips: "Why don't you write it?"
His smile was very similar to the time when she sneaked out of the mansion while the general was in court, but met a famous playboy in the capital and was almost kidnapped by him and taken back to the mansion. Later, the general came on horseback and almost trampled the playboy to death with one of his horse's hooves. After bringing her back to the general's mansion, he made her stand in front of the desk and reflect on her mistakes while he watched her expression.
What did she do at that time?
Well... she seemed to have stood on tiptoe and kissed the general's lips. The general calmed down.
Qi Ying looked up at Ji Rang cautiously.
Woo, no, she didn't dare this time.
Seeing her pursing her lips in grievance, Ji Rang couldn't keep up his pretended coldness. And when he got closer, he could smell the faint sweet fragrance on her body.
Is she transformed from strawberry candy??? Why does she smell so sweet???
Ji Rang straightened up suddenly, rushed to the bedroom, found a black shirt and threw it to her: "Put it on, I'll take you home!"
Qi Ying obediently took off her bath towel and put on her shirt.
His size was too big for her. The hem of his shirt almost fell to her knees and her ponytail was tucked into the back of her collar. He took a look and reached out to pull it out for her.
The soft hair brushed across the palm of my hand like a feather, releasing it as soon as it touched.
He called a special car with his mobile phone, and when the car arrived at the designated location, he picked up the black umbrella on the ground, opened the door, and walked out. Qi Ying followed him obediently. She didn't know that Ji Rang was going to send her off. She entered the elevator and found that Ji Rang hadn't gone back yet, so she blinked curiously.
Ji Rang said without looking away: "What are you looking at? I want to be a good person today, can't I?"
It was windy and rainy outside the building.
Qi Ying felt a little cold, so she held her coat tightly. Ji Rang opened his umbrella and walked out side by side with her.
She was afraid that he would be angry, so she didn't dare to get too close to him. When Ji Rang moved a little to the right, she would move a little further away, and finally she pissed Ji Rang off again.
He scolded: "You are hiding from the hair!"
Then he stretched out his arms and pulled her into his arms.
His palm touched her right arm, which was already wet from the rain. He rubbed her cold arm back and forth with a gloomy face, then tilted the umbrella towards her and quickened his pace.
Qi Ying smelled a faint scent on him, which was like the smell of hospital disinfectant.
But it was soon washed away by rain.
Outside the gate, the special car flashed its hazard lights in the rain.
Ji Rang opened the back door and waited for her to get in before he folded his umbrella and got in. Most of his body was soaked, and his hair was dripping with water. He brushed it off and told the driver in a cold voice, "Turn on the heater."
Wisps of warm wind began to reverberate in the small space, and Qi Ying finally felt a little warmer. Ji Rang didn't say anything, but watched the rain hitting the car window with a sullen face. When he passed the bustling city with bright lights and wine, he suddenly thought of something.
He turned around and glared at Qi Ying again.
Qi Ying, who was sitting next to me with her schoolbag in her arms, said: ………
Wow, wow, wow, I clearly didn’t do anything.
Ji Rang asked the driver to pull over, and ran down in the rain without even taking an umbrella.
Qi Ying thought he suddenly got angry and didn't want her anymore, and her eyes turned red. She pursed her lips and sat in her seat, feeling extremely aggrieved.
Not long after, he came back with a cup of hot milk tea, a hamburger and a serving of French fries.
After getting in the car, he stuffed all the food into her mouth and said unhappily, "Eat!"
Qi Ying rubbed her eyes, sniffed, took the burger, took a bite, and drank a sip of milk tea.
Very fragrant and sweet.
When the car arrived outside Qi Ying's community, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.
After school in the afternoon, Qi Ying sent messages to Yu Cheng and Yu Zhuo respectively, saying that she was going shopping in the mall with her classmates and would be home late.
But they didn't expect it to rain suddenly. Yu Cheng couldn't help but worry at home, and sent a message to Qi Ying, asking her when she would be back and whether she brought an umbrella.
She replied: I’m at the entrance of the community and have an umbrella.
When Yu Cheng received the message, he immediately called Yu Zhuo, who was lying on the sofa playing games, "Go downstairs to pick up your sister."
Yu Zhuo was at a critical moment, and said reluctantly: "It's not like she doesn't know the way. Dad, can you stop treating her like a child? She just can't speak or hear, but she's not stupid!"
Having said that, I still got up and walked down.
Of course, I couldn't quit the game. I kept playing while walking. Just as I rushed to the opponent's mid-lane high ground and got a triple kill, I saw someone approaching with an umbrella at the end of the community with dim street lights.
Yu Zhuo took a look and thought it must be his sister who came back, so he didn't look again. He cooperated with his teammates to take down the enemy crystal very quickly. Just as he raised a smile of victory on the corner of his mouth, he looked up and his smile froze on the corner of his lips.
He saw Ji Rang.
And in Ji Rang's arms, his sister...
In arms???
His sister???
The two of them were already close, Ji Rang was almost soaked, but Qi Ying was clean, holding a cup of milk tea in her hand. Seeing him, Qi Ying paused, with a hesitant look on her face.
I felt a little embarrassed when my lie was exposed by my younger brother on the spot.
When Ji Rang saw Yu Zhuo, he smiled, but that smile was annoying no matter how he looked at it. Yu Zhuo always felt that it had a provocative tone.
He shuddered all over and suddenly remembered what Ji Rang had said before.
It’s different, you have to play it to know.
Cold sweat broke out immediately.
He collapsed and roared at Ji Rang: "What did you do to my sister?!"
Ji Rang: “…………”
If he beat up this idiot now, Qi Ying probably wouldn't blame him, right?
