Chapter 15 - Ch 15

 Zhou Sui was still busy, replying to messages intermittently.

  She said that she passed the college entrance examination and majored in accounting at Hainan University. After graduation, she worked in a private company as a financial officer, and met her current husband, He Jinpeng, at her workplace.

  The two of them often work overtime and have no time to take care of their children. Now their parents-in-law have come from the countryside to live with them until Hanhan goes to kindergarten next year.

  Ji Fanling could imagine that in Zhou Sui's house, the parents-in-law probably sleep in one room, and the couple and their children sleep in the same room.

  If she were really allowed to go, there wouldn't even be a place for her to sleep.

  Unlike Fu Yingcheng.

  At such a young age, he is still alone.

  Zhou Sui: [Can you stay at Fu Yingcheng's place...? ]

  Zhou Sui: [You actually know each other? ]

  Ji Fanling: "..."

  For her, Chen Jun had just asked this question the day before yesterday.

  Why, she and Fu Yingcheng are so like people from two different worlds?

  Indeed, back then in school, they had no social interactions and were the kind of classmates who wouldn't even say hello when they met in the corridor.

  After all, what can a person who is first in the grade and the last person in the class have to say?

  But Zhou Sui's words were like a hook, bringing up one of the few memories she had of Fu Yingcheng.

  It was one night in the freshman year of high school. Ji Guoliang lost money in gambling and was furious at home, beating things. Ji Fanling couldn't bear it and ran out, wandering aimlessly on the street with his pockets in his pockets.

  Suddenly a hand grabbed my arm.

  Ji Fanling turned around.

  Against the light of the street lamp, the thin young man was holding the guidance book he had just bought from the bookstore. He was wearing a black jacket, with a cold white complexion, black hair and black eyes. He stared at her with a frown: "You are bleeding."

  He stretched out his hand . His fingers touched the back of her neck very lightly and moved them in front of her.

  "...Ah."

  Ji Fanling caught a glimpse of the blood on his fingertips and said nonchalantly, "I fell while riding a bicycle. It's nothing."

  Knowing that he was a mysophobic, Ji Fanling was kind enough to pull his sleeve and wipe it for him. fingertip.

  After wiping them all, she remembered that her clothes were also dirty, with dust everywhere.

  No wonder Fu Yingcheng's fingers froze and unbearable veins stretched on the back of his hands.

  Ji Fanling realized that he couldn't wipe it clean, so he simply retracted his hand and turned to leave, but was stopped by Fu Yingcheng: "The hospital is not in this direction."

  Ji Fanling asked curiously: "Which hospital are you going to?"

  Fu Yingcheng: "Then where are you going?"

  For Ji Fanling, this injury is not enough to go to the hospital. Ji Guoliang is ill tonight, and she will not go home even if she dies outside. She plans to find a sofa in an underground Internet cafe and spend the night.

  The girl looked at the store in the distance and said perfunctorily: "Just walk around."

  "Come with me." Fu Yingcheng grabbed her and left.

  I don't know where he got such strength. Ji Fanling couldn't break away and staggered to keep up. He got angry inexplicably: "Fu Yingcheng, what's wrong with you? Let me go!"

  Fu Yingcheng's steps were not fast, but he held on tightly. She punched her sleeves several times without letting go. With a cold face, he dragged her to the seat under the sun umbrella in front of the nearby convenience store: "Sit here and wait for me."

  "Who do you think you are? "Why should I listen to you?" Ji Fanling glared at him.

  The two looked at each other, one high and the other low.

  The cold light from the convenience store fell from above, shining on the young man's dark and beautiful eyes.

  He was condescending, with his raised eyelids forming a faint crease, and the ends of his eyes were narrow and slightly raised, revealing his sharp edge.

  His eyes were just slightly red.

  It's like a thin anger filled with hostility, and also like a layer of suppressed sadness that's not easy to detect.

  It seemed that Ji Fanling was not injured.

  Instead, Ji Fanling stabbed him hard and injured him.

  Ji Fanling slowly blinked his eyes, inexplicably losing his temper.

  "It's up to you whether you want to or not."

  Fu Yingcheng turned around and entered the convenience store, as if her decision to leave or stay had nothing to do with him.

  Soon, the boy came out of the convenience store with a plastic bag filled with cotton swabs, gauze, iodine, band-aids and erythromycin ointment.

  He walked straight to Ji Fanling, unpacked the medicine with quick movements, twisted the cotton swab with his well-jointed fingers, dipped it in iodine, and said in a very calm tone: "Where is the injury?"

  Ji Fanling didn't expect that he was going to buy medicine, and hesitated. I can't move, I don't know what to do.

  People who have never taken care of others, and people who have never been taken care of, are face to face in a stalemate, and no one acts rashly.

  It seemed that her behavior was interpreted as reluctance.

  For a moment, the young man lowered his eyelashes to cover his dark eyes: "Ji Fanling, let me take a look."

  The night wind blurred the usually cold and arrogant voice, making people think it was a lowly prayer.

  "...Okay."

  Chapter 07 Dodge

  Because of this incident, Ji Fanling felt that this god of learning, who had always been aloof, arrogant and mean, might be a good person.

  Fu Yingcheng spent his own money to buy medicine for her. She felt bad and had no money to pay him back, so she thought of a way to thank him.

  However, he may not be able to accept her way of thanking her.

  After that, Fu Yingcheng became even more cold towards her.

  ...

  Ji Fanling's message back to Zhou Sui:

  [Anyway, I'm just staying with him temporarily and will move out when I find a job. ]

  [Can you help me find a way to contact Cheng Jiali. ]

  [I'm not in a hurry, mainly because ten years have passed. ]

  [Afraid that he misses me too much. ]

  Zhou Sui: [Okay, I'll find a way to contact him. ]

  Cheng Jiali was not in the same class as them in high school. He was a student in the International Department. He did not take the college entrance examination and went abroad directly by passing the TOEFL and SAT.

  But like Fu Yingcheng, he is also a well-known figure in the three generations of Beiwan No. 1 Middle School.

  Fu Yingcheng's performance was due to his outstanding performance on the honor roll, while Cheng Jiali had nothing to do with study.

  As soon as he entered the school as a freshman in high school, he became famous after competing in the top ten singing stars on campus.
