Kingstown, First People's Hospital.
In order to live up to his sister's loving breakfast, Su Cheng braced himself and finished the side dishes. When the doctor made his ward rounds, he informed them that they could be discharged.
"We can finally leave." Su Cheng was overjoyed.
"The college entrance examination is coming up. Your test admission ticket and books are at school. I'll take you back when I have time." After Su Xianyi said this, Su Cheng fell silent.
A smart person would be able to see through it with just a little bit.
No wonder his family hadn't been looking for him. So they had already contacted him?
"Are you angry?" Su Xianyi asked.
Su Cheng pursed his lips. "No, I'm quite happy."
"..."
"You didn't tell me because you were afraid that I would be unhappy. It means that you care about my feelings." Su Cheng grinned at her. "Sis, do you like me a lot?"
Su Xianyi was worried that he would get angry, but she didn't expect him to be so self-regulating.
Before they were discharged from the hospital, the two of them wanted to say hello to Lu Shiyuan and Xiao Dongyi. They learned that the two of them were in a meeting and might not be able to finish it for a while, so they asked someone to send a message and packed their things to go home first.
**
In order not to affect the other students' test preparation, Su Xianyi deliberately chose to bring him back to school before the evening self-study session.
The No. 4 High School was located in the center of the city. In addition, many students came out for dinner, so there were many people at the entrance.
Su Xianyi walked him to the door. Because mobile phones were forbidden on campus, when Su Cheng handed her the phone, the security guard on duty at the door smiled and greeted him.
"Isn't this Su Cheng?"
"Hello, Uncle."
After Su Cheng entered the school, the security guard smiled at Su Xianyi. "This kid is smart."
"Are you very familiar with him?"
"Yes, he whistles every day and comes to class leisurely. However, every day after school, he will definitely be among the first batch of students who push an electric bike out. He doesn't look like a senior at all."
At the mention of Su Cheng, the security guard seemed to have a lot to say.
"He even sneaked into the internet cafe. His father came to the school to check the surveillance cameras."
"Oh right, I forgot which year it was. I think he even fought for a girl."
Su Xianyi was stunned for a moment, her face full of doubt.
"Believe me, if we hadn't discovered it in time, something would have happened that night."
Su Xianyi smiled and nodded. From the corner of her eye, she saw a few optical shops near the school. She thought of Lu Shiyuan's broken glasses last night. "I'll go around the neighborhood. If Su Cheng comes out, please ask him to wait for me here."
--
The other side.
When Su Cheng arrived at the school gate with a stack of books in his arms, the security guard told him to wait. However, he could not wait any longer and walked around the school gate with his books.
The meat-stuffed biscuit at the school gate was the best, and Su Cheng wanted to buy some for Su Xianyi to try.
After ordering two servings, he realized that he had neither a phone nor cash on him. The boss knew him and guessed that he didn't have any money when he saw his embarrassed face. "I'll give you free food."
"I have money. I'll give it to you when my sister comes over…"
Before he could finish his sentence, someone suddenly placed a hand on his arm.
Before Su Cheng could turn around, he heard the person say with a smile, "Our recommendation student came to school?"
"Why are you here?" Su Cheng frowned.
"Where's the pretty sister who was with you last time?" Another person laughed.
There were five of them in a row, and they all exuded the aura of a hooligan.
"We didn't talk properly when we met before. Let's go. I'll treat you to milk tea."
Su Cheng was holding a heavy book in his hands. It was difficult for him to move and he could not break free for a moment. He was forced to walk into an alley not far away.
Many of the surrounding students saw it, and most of them did not want to cause trouble for themselves, so they did not dare to go up and help.
--
The sun was setting, and the alley was dim. The passage was slightly narrow, and the few of them held him down. After making several turns, they found the innermost secret place.
There was rubbish and dried sewage on the ground, making it look dirty and messy.
"Bao Yihang, what do you want!" Su Cheng frowned.
The boy called Bao Yihang smiled. "The last time we ate crayfish, the girl who was with you was pretty. I heard she was your biological sister?"
"What do you want to ask?"
"I want to get to know her."
Su Cheng didn't say anything.
"She's not your biological sister anyway, so you don't have to protect her."
Su Cheng knew very well what kind of people these people were. He was just curious. Why would they suddenly target his sister?
"To be honest, you don't understand your sister's methods at all."
"Do you know why she came back this time?"
Su Cheng pursed his lips. "You know?"
"I heard that she snatched someone else's boyfriend as soon as she came back and even made Sister Min suffer. Now, she's trying to get close to you because she wants your Su family's company and assets."
This circle was only so big. Su Cheng knew who he was talking about when he mentioned Sister Min.
Cai Huimin.
The last time they met at the crayfish restaurant, it was obvious that they had interacted before from the way she spoke to Su Xianyi, but Su Cheng didn't ask.
"Su Cheng, actually, you just have to help us ask your sister out. There's no harm in doing so, don't you think?" Bao Yihang held his shoulder.
Su Cheng glanced at him. "Did Cai Huimin send you here?"
"Why are you mentioning her?! We saw injustice and wanted to help. How about giving your sister a call?"
Su Cheng smiled and looked at them.
"Do I look like an idiot?"
A few of them were stunned. "What do you mean?"
"Only idiots are easily fooled."
"..."
"You just heard a few words and you're standing up for others? To be honest, every time I see you guys, it makes me wonder if the country's nine-year compulsory education is not universal enough."
Otherwise, how could there be such a brainless person?
Bao Yihang didn't seem to react and was stunned for two seconds.
Su Cheng smiled. "Maybe what you lack is not nine years of compulsory education, but… You lack brains!"
?!
"F*ck, Su Cheng, what the f*ck did you say!"
A few of them were instantly angered. They rolled up their sleeves and were about to beat him up.
"What? Five against one? Are you so brave now?"
Bao Yihang smiled and stopped his restless friends. "Then let's fight one-on-one. We didn't manage to fight two years ago. This time, we can end it."
"Alright, move aside. I'll put the book down."
The person who had been pressing on his shoulder also released his hand. Su Cheng found a clean place to put down his book, rolled his neck, and stretched his limbs.
"Can you hurry up!" Bao Yihang was somewhat impatient.
"The physical education teacher said that you should warm up before exercising, or you'll easily pull a muscle."
"..."
A few of them gritted their teeth.
**
The other side.
Su Xianyi chose the glasses and sent a message to Lu Shiyuan to ask about his prescription, but she did not receive a reply. She thought about the time and was worried that Su Cheng would be anxious, so she hurried back to the school gate.
The security guard said that Su Cheng had gone to buy meat-stuffed biscuits, but she heard from the students around that he had been taken away by delinquents.
Su Xianyi's expression changed slightly, and a few students pointed the way for her.
At this moment, five people were patiently waiting for Su Cheng in the alley.
Su Cheng was already feeling a little anxious. He coughed and said, "I'm ready."
Bao Yihang had already taken off his coat, and the few people beside him were also excited. They were just waiting to abuse this good student, but Su Cheng turned his head and then he…
He f*cking ran!
They were dumbfounded.
This kid didn't care about martial ethics!
Su Xianyi had already entered the alley.
However, it wasn't a straight path inside. It was her first time here. Just as she was wondering where Su Cheng would be taken, she heard the sound of running...
There were even people shouting,
"Su Cheng, you're not a man!"
"I'm not an adult yet. What kind of man am I? I'm just a kid!"
"Stop right there!"
"I'm not an idiot. If you can, chase after me and hit me, short legs."
That tone was arrogant and asking for a beating.
Su Xianyi was speechless.
