Chapter 376: Evil (5)
So that's how it is.
No wonder Qiao Xi was so kind to give him advice all of a sudden and even called his dad. If he still didn't do well on the test despite his promise, he'd get a heavier beating next time.
so.
Qiao Xi simply wanted to laugh at him.
Did you set this up just to see him look embarrassed and humiliated?
According to his character.
He definitely wouldn't study. The more his father tried to get him to study, the more he resented it. But if he did poorly on the test, he would be beaten even harder.
I thought.
Qiao Xi is somewhat different from them.
Wasn't she still that kind of person after all? Now she's pretending to buy him some medicine, and even has this worried look on her face, saying, "Hope he gets better soon."
What's the result?
Just to let him recover before the next month came, he was beaten by his father again.
What a good actor.
Zhan Qi's idea of liking her just now disappeared in an instant. He looked at the girl's thin back carrying the bag of medicine with a gloomy look, and felt that she was even more hypocritical and disgusting.
Isn't he just the same as those flatterers?
She only acts like a good girl in front of adults.
nausea.
Zhan Qi curled his lips sarcastically, returned to the room and slammed the door. The "bang" sound was particularly harsh in the empty room.
When Qiao Xi heard the voice, she was instinctively startled.
She shook her head and touched the tip of her nose, then squatted down, opened the empty drawer at the bottom of the cabinet, and neatly placed the boxes of medicine she had bought in it.
She knew that saying that would anger Zhan Qi.
I also know that the other party will think too much.
But if she didn't say that, and tried to persuade him to learn, he wouldn't be able to learn. Based on what Qiao Xi had just observed, she found that this kind of soft provocation method was suitable for Zhan Qi.
Let Zhan Qi think.
She sincerely and deliberately didn't want him to learn it so that he would embarrass himself.
You really want to embarrass me and don't want me to learn? Humph, I won't!
Then the fighting spirit will be stimulated in the opposite direction.
Young people have strong self-esteem, and family is a bloody scar for Zhan Qi, and it is also a minefield that he can never touch.
Qiao Xi touched it.
Even dancing in a minefield.
She wouldn't be surprised if Zhan Qi hated her. But at least he was willing to learn now, even though he still harbored a hatred for her.
But it's better than doing nothing.
It's better to continue to muddle through life without any fighting spirit.
The desire to retaliate against her out of anger and disgust can be considered a form of motivation. Qiao Xi feels that being hated doesn't matter to her, as she is waiting until the end of this semester so that the heroine can survive safely.
She completed the mission.
It's time to pack up and leave this house.
A semester is only about four or five months long, and after that she's free to do whatever she wants. After Qiao Xi finished arranging the medicines while humming a song, she went out to see that Zhan Qi had locked himself in his room again.
She simply stopped hiding it.
I decisively used cleaning techniques to do a thorough cleaning, cleaning and disinfecting the house thoroughly inside and out.
To make it more realistic.
Qiao Xi even fiddled with it for more than two hours to hear various sounds, while watching the Taiwanese idol drama on TV.
It wasn't long before she was quiet.
Zhan Qi came out of his room and passed by the living room as if he hadn't noticed. He glanced in her direction without leaving any trace. Then he went straight to the kitchen in his slippers, opened the refrigerator, and took out a bottle of milk.
Although my family background is not particularly good.
The stepfather is also stingy, but Qiao Xi's mother is quite generous. She ordered milk for the family, enough for her and Zhan Qi to drink.
A young man came out carrying milk.
I've already showered and changed into pajamas.
Seeing Qiao Xi enjoying the prime-time romance drama that the girls in the class loved the most, he sneered and made a sarcastic remark.
"Someone said he would tutor me, but ended up watching a TV series."
Qiao Xi looked up when she heard his voice.
Following his words, I continued, "Don't be too pushy. It's none of my business if he doesn't learn well anyway."
Hearing this.
Zhan Qi understood instantly, it was indeed so.
Qiao Xi clearly did it on purpose, making big promises to his father, and then getting beaten again when his injuries healed.
At that time, the girls probably hid themselves away and enjoyed themselves secretly.
Zhan Qi casually put down the almost finished milk, sat down not far from Qiao Xi, and spoke casually pretending to be nonchalant.
"Okay, I'll tell Zhan Hao later that you never taught me at all."
The boy paused.
"Oh, by the way, if Zhan Hao knew that you were this good girl who didn't teach me, do you think he would scold you for being a money loser? He would marry you off to one of those old men in town right away, so that you wouldn't be like your mother, wild and unable to find a husband every day—"
The sarcastic remarks were not yet finished.
The girl next to him stood up quickly and directly picked up the milk he had placed on the table and poured it over to him.
The cold milk soaked my pajamas.
It also made Zhan Qi's chest wet.
The sneer of amusement that had just risen in his eyes instantly dropped, plummeting to a freezing point, chilling him to the bone. His treacherous, deep gaze was dark and inexplicable, emitting a dangerous aura that was truly terrifying.
The girl met those vicious eyes.
She subconsciously took a half step back, as if she had retreated a little. She had never seen Zhan Qi like this before, but the words he had just said touched the girl's bottom line.
Even if I'm a little scared.
She still took a deep breath, looking solemn and serious, and met those cold eyes.
"Please be respectful. She's still your mother. She went to work in a big city. Although she was dazzled by the prosperity of the city, she never neglected me or underpaid me every month. The milk you drink is actually ordered by her."
Speaking of this.
The girl slowly calmed her breathing, her hands clenched slightly, as if trying to calm her nervousness and not avoid the boy's deep eyes that were beyond her age.
"Come back early after school tomorrow and I'll give you tutoring."
After leaving these words, Qiao Xi hurried back to the room.
Zhan Qi watched her back disappear around the corner, closed his eyes to calm his emotions, and then glanced at his pajamas which were slightly soaked with milk.
He casually unbuttoned it, took it off, and threw it into the basin of dirty clothes in the bathroom.
Wet the towel again and wipe your upper body.
Looking at the scarred body in the mirror, the empty and torn feeling in Zhan Qi's heart was infinitely magnified.
This unpleasant episode is over.
Before going to school in the morning, Qiao Xi washed the dirty clothes in the basin and hung them out to dry. For her, it was just a matter of using cleaning skills, which was quite convenient.
Like before, I left breakfast for this troublesome brother.
Qiao Xi hurried out and rode her bike to school.
As soon as she arrived in the classroom, she saw Bai Zhizhi. The girl handed her a bag of cookies: "Good morning, Xixi, these are the cookies I made yesterday, try them."
That happened.
The girls in the class were all distancing themselves from Bai Zhizhi, intentionally or unintentionally. She herself was not unaware of anything, and the girls felt a little disappointed, so they stopped bringing snacks to share with them.
I made some snacks myself and gave them to Mommy and Daddy to try yesterday.
Everyone says it’s delicious.
She also packed a copy and brought it to school, intending to give it to Qiao Xi. The girl was Bai Zhizhi's first friend, and her mother smiled, patted her head, and said that was the right thing to do.
Be sincere to those who are truly good to you.
“It’s very delicious.”
Under the girl's expectant gaze, Qiao Xi gave her affirmation.
Bai Zhizhi was also visibly relieved: "That's great, as long as you like it."
She was also afraid that Qiao Xi didn't like cookies.
Seeing this, Qiao Xi, who was chewing a cookie in her mouth, also comforted Bai Zhizhi. The two chatted casually, not paying any attention to the occasional glances directed their way.
It wasn't long before they returned to their seats.
Bai Zhizhi, being the top student in her grade, sat in the front row, while Qiao Xi sat in the corner by the window. The reason she was so far back was because she had taken a leave of absence on the day of the monthly exam.
That is to say.
At that time, her identity had not yet been created. Although it was tacitly acknowledged to exist in other people's memories, it seemed that she had no presence in the eyes of others.
Bug-like identity.
Nature is also automatically rounded off by the world.
Because I took a leave for the last monthly exam and had no ranking, naturally, I came in last and was wronged to sit in the corner.
But there was an empty seat behind her.
There was someone in the class who had a similar lack of presence as her, yet also had the strongest sense of presence. This might sound contradictory, but it was exactly what Yu Zhi was talking about.
This person is rarely seen in the morning.
In addition, his personality was eccentric and no one dared to talk to him even though he was handsome, so naturally he became a person with no sense of existence. However, many people in the class paid attention to him privately.
Especially girls.
Of course, there are also people who hold the idea that the one who is close to the water gets the moon first.
People who shouldn't normally be there in the morning.
Now, for the first time ever, Qiao Xi saw the person sitting behind her when she returned to her seat. Yu Zhi really did sleep as the rumors said when he arrived in the classroom.
Lying on the table, motionless.
He was unmoved by morning reading and the same was true during class.
When the bell for the morning exercises rang, everyone in the classroom went out to line up. Out of courtesy, Qiao Xi gently knocked on the table behind her to remind them.
"Classmates, get in line!"
“…”
Good, no reaction. That's fine, she's already warned me.
Bai Zhizhi came over to stand with Qiao Xi again. She pulled the girl's school uniform sleeve and complained in a low voice.
"I really don't like recess at all. I've been running so much lately that my legs are almost broken. I'm so tired."
Qiao Xi patted her again to comfort her.
"It's okay, let's run together. You won't feel so tired. It's much better than the physical education exam."
Bai Zhizhi still couldn't be happy after hearing this.
For her, the hardest time was recess. If it was academic, it would be fine, but PE was a bit of a struggle.
People came downstairs one after another and started doing exercises.
The music of youth and freedom started playing, and the classroom became empty and quiet after everyone left.
The lazy boy who was originally sleeping on the back table also moved at this time and slowly sat up.
His sleepy eyes still showed signs of fatigue.
The slightly disheveled school uniform, perhaps from neglect, had its collar standing up unruly. Yu Zhi casually adjusted it, his knuckles distinct and slender, his fingers moving nimbly and effortlessly as he flicked them twice.
There was no one else in the empty classroom.
The girl at the front desk had her cookies in the drawer and her folded textbooks on the table.
Yu Zhi leaned lazily against the wall with one hand in his pocket, looking out the window.
The class seats are not difficult to find. Classes one and two are usually located in the center.
And that girl was very good-looking.
Even if she did nothing, she looked a little out of place standing at the back of the line, and there would always be boys from the classes next to her who would pretend to glance at her casually.
Is there a new target that Yan Shen is interested in?
Yu Zhi paused for a moment, and when he looked back, his gaze fell on the girl's desk again, as if thinking about something.
