Chapter 32: Libra Tilts

Chapter 32

This weekend Quan Zhisui spent was especially calm, so calm that she didn't have much chance to make trouble, and even every morning's door knocking, Xu Zhiyi treated her politely, calling her Zhisui.

Although it was obviously fake.

Zuo Zichen was also well-behaved, spending most of the time staying in the room without coming out.

Zuo Zhiyu seemed to have got in touch with new connections, and was out drinking until midnight every day.

Plus Xu Zhiyi's deliberate guidance, Zuo Zhiyu still didn't know about his precious son being beaten badly.

Monday morning.

Zuo Zichen asked for leave again. He cared about face and wanted to wait until the injuries on his face got better before going back to school, at least until the swelling went down.

So today Quan Zhisui ate breakfast and took the bus alone.

She finished morning exercises early in the morning, changed into new clothes, put on her school uniform, happily ate breakfast, and then went upstairs to knock on the door.

Zuo Zhiyu and Xu Zhiyi were somewhat numb already. As soon as the knock sounded, the two got dressed, opened the door, and greeted Quan Zhisui with smiles.

Just like a daily routine, they politely said 'good morning' to each other.

After that, they closed the door.

The smiles on their faces disappeared instantly, and their expressions became wooden as they lay down again.

Zuo Zhiyu had not slept well for many days. Now the most painful thing for him was just saying ‘good morning’. They had to go through this every day, and every sleep was forcibly interrupted. Anyone would not be able to stand it!

By now he was a little neurotic every time he lay in bed.

Xu Zhiyi next to him was also tortured and could not bear it any longer. She really didn't want to pretend to be nice to meet that lunatic anymore!

"Dear," Xu Zhiyi suddenly suggested, "Let's go on vacation too?"

Those two old men and old women did know how to hide. Ever since the restaurant was destroyed, they had been running around sightseeing, shopping, vacationing, and soaking in hot springs.

Zuo Zhiyu had not slept well for many days. He quickly accepted the proposal: "Okay, let's get out to hide for a couple of days."

Xu Zhiyi immediately sat up from the bed: "Let's go now?"

Zuo Zhiyu looked at the time...

Go!

Leave now!

-----------------

On the way to school, Quan Zhisui's phone vibrated, it was a message.

[Fang Yue: Went to the resort, tentatively two days.]

The message was withdrawn two minutes later.

Quan Zhisui's expression remained calm as she put her phone back in her pocket.

Fang Yue was a strange person. Quan Zhisui didn't get much out of him the first time she looked for him, but he was willing to answer 'yes' and 'no', as if stuck, especially cautious.

In the end, Quan Zhisui only asked some superficial things, just that little affair of Zuo Zhiyu's infidelity more than 10 years ago.

So normal! But weird!

"Oh, I see!" Kong Mingze suddenly came up with this sentence.

Quan Zhisui glanced at him: "What do you know again?"

Kong Mingze: "Didn't you save Wei Shixu? Established a friendship of life and death! I just realized that you two finally have a good relationship!"

Quan Zhisui: "Oh."

She didn't think so.

......

After the first class, Zhuge Ying came over with a form: "Zhisui, the school sports meeting is coming up soon, do you want to sign up for a project?"

Quan Zhisui's eyes lit up instantly: "What projects are there?"

She loved school sports meetings so much!

High school had a downside of heavy academic pressure, and there was no way to train well with just two weekend days, Quan Zhisui felt her bones were about to rust.

She wished she could run a marathon to release her excessive energy!

Zhuge Ying handed over the form: "I think you are suitable for long distance running, sprinting or high jump?"

Quan Zhisui: "Sign me up for all high-intensity ones!"

Zhuge Ying smiled: "Good, our class really needs you."

Kong Mingze came over and asked, "When is the school sports meeting? Can I recover from injury in time?"

Zhuge Ying: "You can make it, there's still half a month left."

Kong Mingze: "Hehe, then I'll sign up too."

Wei Shixu came over at some point, and looked at the form, but didn't mean to fill it out.

Kong Mingze: "Wei Shixu, sign up too?"

Wei Shixu: "I'm not feeling well."

Kong Mingze: "Oh..."

Quan Zhisui looked up and observed for a few seconds, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

She really didn't see it.

Wei Shixu smiled ambiguously: "I almost died when I was a kid."

Quan Zhisui couldn't pick up the conversation at once.

Zhuge Ying looked at Wei Shixu with a rare caring look. Since she heard about the kidnapping, she was not so repulsive towards Wei Shixu.

Although she didn't know exactly what happened, such great psychological trauma, Wei Shixu's eccentric personality was very normal.

Kong Mingze looked at Wei Shixu nervously, and timely changed the subject: "Ah, let's eat together at noon! I can't treat you to hot pot, so I'll treat you to the canteen!"

Zhuge Ying cooperated with a laugh: "Then I'll eat more today."
