CH 21

Ye Cheng narrowed his eyes and wondered if he had seen it wrong.

On the roof opposite, there seems to be a person sitting.

“What’s that?” He pointed to the opposite side, and Lu Xiao followed his line of sight, his face changed instantly.

The two quickly looked at each other, and at the same time, they turned around and rushed into the classroom.

Just as Zhu Yufen was about to reprimand them, Lu Xiao interrupted her in a deep voice:

“Teacher, there is someone on the roof opposite, wearing a school uniform.”

What he said was very euphemistic.

As soon as the voice fell, the whole class was in a commotion.

Everyone craned their necks to look at the other side

Zhu Yufen came over immediately and said in shock, “Where is it, take me to see it.”

The moment they went out, the class had turned into a mess.

“Fuck me, someone jumped off the building?”

“Who, who, is it from our school?”

“…Have you noticed that the monitor has not come to class?”

“Bah, don’t talk nonsense!”

Ye Cheng’s head buzzed, blood flowing backwards all over his body, thinking about some of Hu Jiawei’s strange actions.

Zhu Yufen came in from outside and said hastily, “Everyone keep quiet and study in the classroom.”

After saying this, she ran out while on the phone, the sound of high heels was shrill and flustered.

Ye Cheng didn’t have time to think about it, he followed her footsteps and chased out, and saw Lu Xiao’s figure flashing around the corner, and soon disappeared.

Without any hesitation, he immediately followed.

Their class is on the fifth floor, only one floor away from the rooftop, and the entrance to the rooftop is in Building 1.

There is a corridor connecting the two buildings. Before running to Building 1, Ye Cheng caught up with Lu Xiao.

The two took three steps at a time, and ran all the way to the rooftop. Ye Cheng’s lungs were about to explode, he had never run so fast before.

The door to the roof is made of iron fence, which is usually locked, but now there is a gap.

Lu Xiao held the iron door and gently pushed it open.

They slowed down their movements at the same time, trying to avoid disturbing the person on the rooftop.

After the door was fully opened, the familiar back came into view.

——It’s really Hu Jiawei.

He sat on the fence with his back to the door, his feet dangling in the air.

After hearing the voice, Hu Jiawei turned around.

Contrary to what Ye Cheng expected, he did not burst into tears or even showed a sad

expression. He glanced at them very calmly, then continued to look at the other side.

Numb and empty.

Ye Cheng’s heart was beating wildly, for fear that he would fall off accidentally, and he would be torn apart and blood spattered on the spot.

He took the initiative and said, “Hu Jiawei, what are you doing? Come down quickly, it’s very dangerous up there.”

Hearing someone speak, Hu Jiawei turned to look at him.

Obviously he was looking at him, but Ye Cheng always felt that he had no focus.

He was dumbfounded, like a bottomless pit.

But since he usually looks listless, this state did not attract Ye Cheng’s attention too much, all his attention was on that fence.

“This wind is very comfortable.” Hu Jiawei replied nonchalantly, forcing a smile that was not a smile.

It looked like a marionette who was forced to laugh.

Ye Cheng always felt that he was not normal, and there was a layer of goosebumps on his arms.

“No matter how comfortable the wind is, it’s not safe. You come down first and talk about what you have to say.” He took two steps forward.

Hu Jiawei looked at him strangely and said, “Why do you want to go down there? it’s full of people, noisy and hot. Would you like to feel the wind? ”

Ye Cheng was a little confused by him.

Lu Xiao frowned, stood there and looked at Hu Jiawei, but did not step forward.

After ignoring Ye Cheng, he started kicking again, raising his arms and cheering twice.

At this moment, the sound of chaotic footsteps came from the stairwell.

The principal and several directors caught up, along with Zhu Yufen.

Zhu Yufen looked up to see Lu Xiao, and said sternly, “What are you doing here, go back.”

The headmaster patted her and told her not to speak loudly, and did not chase them away.

When Hu Jiawei looked back and saw these many people, his face dropped.

The principal wiped off his sweat and immediately reassured him: “Classmate, calm down first, don’t be afraid, we are all here to help you.”

Several leaders were all facing the enemy, trying to stabilize his mood by chatting with him.

“Classmate, what difficulties do you encounter, tell the teachers, there is no problem that cannot be solved.”

“Yeah, think about your family, your parents, don’t do stupid things!”

Ye Cheng took a step back and quietly asked Zhu Yufen, “Teacher, have you called 119?”

After Zhu Yufen was reminded by him, her face just turned pale, she insisted: “I’ve called, I hope they won’t need to do something.”

Everyone was chatting and talking, and gradually approached Hu Jiawei in a surrounding gesture.

Hu Jiawei immediately noticed something was wrong, moved his butt and said, “Don’t come here! Stay away from me! There are so many people… so noisy, so noisy!”

“Don’t move, don’t move at all! Be quiet!” The principal made a gesture immediately, and beads of sweat flowed down his cheeks.

The stalemate lasted for more than ten minutes. Everyone was helpless and anxious like ants on a hot pan.

Hu Jiawei paddled around with his legs, muttering plausibly.

The principal looked at Zhu Yufen and pointed to the watch.

Zhu Yufen understood it and compared it with a “5”, thinking that she would stick to it for another five minutes.

After a brief silence, Hu Jiawei turned his back to them again, looking at the teaching building in the distance obsessively.

The principal cleared his throat, and was about to continue talking to him, when suddenly all the words to be said were choked in his throat.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Lu Xiao suddenly strode over.

His movements were so fast that everyone had no time to stop them.

Ye Cheng’s heart instantly raised to his throat.

It all happened in just a few seconds.

Lu Xiao stepped forward a few steps, grabbed Hu Jiawei’s back collar with one hand, and supported his back with the other. He suddenly grabbed the man from the fence.

His movements were almost over in a blink of an eye. Hu Jiawei didn’t react at all, and was shoved to the ground.

Everyone was stunned.

Lu Xiao knelt on one knee on Hu Jiawei and pressed him hard on the concrete floor.

The moment his back landed on the ground, Hu Jiawei began to struggle like crazy, waving his hands wildly and shouting.

Ye Cheng came back to his senses, and immediately rushed to help.

Afterwards, several leaders surrounded him, and the scene was chaotic.

“Quick, quick, hold him down!” the dean shouted, “Classmate, you can let go! Be careful not to be caught by him!”

Zhu Yufen held the phone between her shoulders, helped hold Hu Jiawei’s leg, and said loudly,

“Remember to turn off the warning lights when you come! Don’t make any fanfare!”

It was like a frying pan on the roof, Ye Cheng took advantage of the chaos and dragged Lu Xiao over, and said with lingering fears, “Are you alright?”

Hu Jiawei’s fingernails scratched Lu Xiao’s face a few times, and the skin was broken.

He shook his head absently and said to the principal, “Uncle Qin, it’s best to take him to the hospital as soon as possible, he may have some mental problems.”

The headmaster gasped and said solemnly: “I see, although you saved someone this time, this kind of behavior is too dangerous. What if you both fall off? How can I tell your dad or Mom?”

Lu Xiao shrugged and said nothing.

“You two go back first, don’t tell the class about this.” The principal said to them.

Lu Xiao nodded and dragged Ye Cheng towards the door.

Before leaving the rooftop, the principal behind him said, “Zhu Yufen, come to my office later and tell me what’s going on.”

The two got off the rooftop, and Ye Cheng gradually calmed down, feeling full of doubts.

As soon as they walked to the corridor connecting the two buildings, they encountered Zhang Qi who was approaching.

Zhang Qi was chewing gum, followed by a few people, obviously wanting to watch the fun.

As soon as he saw Lu Xiao, he smiled.

“Why, brother Xiao came to watch the show too? Did he jump? Don’t waste your feelings, I said.”

Hearing his tone, Ye Cheng wanted to see Lu Xiao.

Zhang Qi glanced at the stairs with a smile, and said, “Oh, it’s still the same place. Oh, I see, you didn’t go to the theater, but to save someone twice.”

As soon as he finished speaking the last word, Lu Xiao rushed up.

It was just after class time, and in the corridor where people came and went, Zhang Qi originally thought that he would not be so impulsive.

The next second, he was kicked to the ground by Lu Xiao.

Zhang Qi scolded “Fuck you”, but before he could get stand up, he was hit with an iron fist in the face again, and his nose bleeds all over the place.

The girls all screamed and ducked, and the two of them scuffled on the ground.

Rather than calling it a scuffle, it would be better to say it was a one-sided slaughter.

Lu Xiao rode on Zhang Qi, his fists fell on his face and abdomen like raindrops.

Zhang Qi was beaten and screamed, but no one behind him dared to go up.

Ye Cheng froze in place for a few seconds, then hurried over to hug Lu Xiao’s arm.

But he didn’t know why he was stimulated, so he threw him aside.

He was too strong, Ye Cheng couldn’t persuade him at all.

Just as the hallway was screaming and shouting, the dean of education ran downstairs.

Looking at this scene, he almost went crazy.

“You two! Stop !” His face turned red, and he shouted angrily.

Lu Xiao turned a deaf ear and continued to frantically beat Zhang Qi, who was pinned to the ground.

“Stop! Can’t you hear me? I’ll beat everyone up!!” The dean was almost furious.

A few passing boys hurried over and finally joined Ye Cheng, and together they puled Lu Xiao away.

Zhang Qi was beaten with blood all over his face, and two of his teeth were broken. He lay on the ground and couldn’t stop crying.

The dean pointed to Lu Xiao with trembling fingers and said, “I have to give you a demerit this time! I have remembered it! Go to the office and stand for me, and go now!”

Lu Xiao’s face was as terrifying as the devil from hell. He pushed aside the hand that was blocking him, shook off the blood stains on his fist, and walked away without looking back.

“Come here, help me carry him to the infirmary.” The dean of the school helped Zhang Qi on the ground and said, “Everyone else go! Go back to study, don’t bother to look at it!”

After everyone dispersed, Ye Cheng’s temples jumped wildly.

What kind of thing is this, these two episodes today are just too damned.

**

After returning to the classroom, a group of people surrounded him.

Jiang Jin said, “Where’s Brother Xiao? Didn’t he go with you, why didn’t he come back?”

Ye Cheng had a headache and said concisely, “I met Zhang Qi on the way, he got into a fight, and was taken away by the director.”

“Fuck it!” Jiang Jin was furious, “What the hell is that bastard Zhang Qi doing, fuck it!”

Ye Cheng shook his head and didn’t want to mention it again.

Li Junxiao asked, “Is that the monitor who jumped off the building? The next class is spreading the news. It seems that someone took a picture of it with a mobile phone.”

Ye Cheng’s head hurt even more, and he said to them, “Don’t tell the other class about this. If you really think about him.”

Others looked solemn, and all nodded in agreement.

“The monitor usually contributes a lot to the class. Of course we hope he is well.”

“Yeah, don’t pass it on anymore, he’s already under enough pressure, and if someone talks about it again, it will be even worse.”

“You said he was like this. Could it be because Aunt Zhu asked him to report his grades in public when the class committee was held last time?” the art committee rep asked.

“Damn it, Aunt Zhu is disgusting?”

“No way… You can’t talk nonsense about this kind of thing.”

As the class bell rang, everyone returned to their seats.

Jiang Jin turned his head and whispered, “Brother Cheng, Zhang Qi, that bastard, did he provoke Brother Xiao about the squad leader’s jumping off the building?”

Ye Cheng was taken aback: “How do you know?”

While talking, the teacher walked in.

Jiang Jin made a “speak later” gesture to him, turned around and sat down.

After two classes, Lu Xiao came back.

His face was as frozen as ice cubes in the freezer, and he almost wrote “Get away, don’t talk to me” on his face.

No one dared to speak up, and Jiang Jin didn’t dare to talk to Ye Cheng about this again in person.

In the afternoon computer class, Lu Xiao didn’t go to the computer room with everyone.

Seeing that he didn’t move in his seat, Ye Cheng turned back on the way.

Sure enough, Lu Xiao was lying on the table writing a review.

Most of his 1.8-meter height was taken up by his legs. After sitting down, he doesn’t look big, and looks like a child who has made a mistake while holding a pen with his head down.

Ye Cheng sat down in Jiang Jin’s seat, and Lu Xiao raised his head, just in time to face him.

“The director punished you?” he asked.

Usually, when Lu Xiao gets angry, he often takes anger at others, so no one asked him this question all morning.

Although he looked very irritable, he still nodded sullenly in the face of Ye Cheng’s lack of words.

“A thousand words, I can’t write it.”

The pen cap on his hand was about to be bald, and only two lines of words were written in the exercise book.

Ye Cheng gave a “tsk”, shook his head and said, “Shouldn’t you be familiar with this skill already, why can’t you write it down?”

Lu Xiao looked at him badly: “I’m in a bad mood, don’t find fault.”

The corner of Ye Cheng’s lips turned upward, he held his chin and said, “I’ll help you write, how’s about it?”

“Such a good thing?” Lu Xiao looked at him suspiciously, “What are the conditions? You son’t want to deceive me.”

“The condition is, answering a few questions.” Ye Cheng said.

After a few seconds, he pushed the pen and paper to the opposite side and leaned back with his arms crossed.

“deal.”

Lu Xiao leaned on the back of the chair, looking at him with his long legs crossed.

Ye Cheng turned the exercise book over and asked while writing: “A question, how did you know that Hu Jiawei has a mental problem?”

After everyone took Hu Jiawei off the rooftop, a car came to the school gate with the sign of Qingshan Mental Hospital on it.

Some people say that his family has a history of mental illness, which may be because of a recent episode of stress.

Lu Xiao laughed and said, “Isn’t it easy to see, his behavior doesn’t look like a normal person.”

After Ye Cheng wrote a line, he raised her eyes to look at him: “I didn’t expect you to observe very carefully.”

After all, when a classmate was about to jump off the building, his first reaction was not to be worried, but to observe his words and deeds, which was rare.

“Next question.” Lu Xiao turned his face away and said impatiently.

Ye Cheng stared at him for a while

He asked, “Why are you so fierce when Zhang Qi provokes you today?”

Lu Xiao turned to look at him and sneered: “If I say that I want to destroy him whenever he provokes me, will you believe it?”

Ye Cheng thought to himself, well, he believed it.

So he asked in a different way: “What does he mean by ‘playing a second time to save people’?”

Lu Xiao’s spirit became dark and silent.

Ye Cheng didn’t rush him, he lowered his head and continued to write the review, waiting quietly.

“I used to have a brother who also went to that place.” Lu Xiao said in a low voice.

The sharp tip of the pen paused, and the ink smeared a scratch on the paper.

Lu Xiao said: “The reason is that Zhang Qi always led people to block him, but he didn’t want to jump off the building, he was really just letting the wind blow on him. After that day, I saw Zhang Qi and beat him once.”

His tone was very calm, he said those things lightly, and he couldn’t feel his anger at that time.

Ye Cheng opened his mouth, and Lu Xiao was one step ahead of him: “You still have a few questions?.”

“The last one.” Ye Cheng said, “Tell me about Chen Zhen.”

Lu Xiao was stunned. He was about to ask how he knew, but saw those light brown eyes looking straight at him.

The face contained many things that he could not understand.

At that moment, he suddenly lost his ability to speak.

After a while, Lu Xiao opened his mouth and said, “He studies well, but he’s not as good as you, and he doesn’t like to ‘encourage me to study’ like you.”

As for Chen Zhen, he couldn’t think of any adjectives that could describe him.

Unlike when you mention Ye Cheng, you will think of the words “high achiever”, “aloof” and “beautiful”.

For the fact that he thought he was beautiful, Lu Xiao didn’t notice anything wrong for a while.

Chen Zhen is an ordinary high school student, with ordinary growth, ordinary family background, and indecisive personality.

Logically speaking, he was someone who could never become friends with Lu Xiao.

If they had to find something special, it was probably why they knew each other.

“Many people thought that we only met at high school. We met in elementary school. It was near Qingshan. Well, his home was in Qingshan.” Lu Xiao recalled.

On this point, Ye Cheng hadn’t heard Jiang Jin mention it.

He put down his pen curiously and asked, “Why did you go to Qingshan? Isn’t your home in Jiulong?”

Qingshan belongs to the suburban area, and it is quite far from the urban area.

Lu Xiao suddenly narrowed his eyes and leaned over.

His movements were too fast, Ye Cheng didn’t have time to react, and the distance between the two closed in an instant.

Lu Xiao looked into his bottom and snorted coldly, “You asked me so many questions, can I ask you one too?”

The aroma of orange blossoms on his body lingered on the tip of his nose, mixed with the peculiar smell of a young boy, and the air became thinner.

Ye Cheng blinked and stepped back a little unnaturally.

“You ask.” He felt a little tightness in his throat.

Lu Xiao licked his dry lips and said, “Why are you curious about me?”

T/N: It is his responsibility as your wife.
