That night when he returned home, Ji Feng was still thinking about why Xu Mo suddenly said he wanted to go on an outing and even specifically asked if he and Zhang Lei would participate!
Obviously, Xu Mo's actions were definitely not just out of classmate friendship. Obviously, he had other ideas. However, in Ji Feng's view, it is understandable if Xu Mo takes action against himself, because now he has no power or influence. If Xu Mo wants to deal with him, it is really easier than crushing an ant.
But why did Xu Mo specifically ask for Zhang Lei's opinion?
Could it be that he wants to deal with Zhang Lei as well? This is very difficult. If something happens to the son of the county party secretary on his own territory, I'm afraid everyone involved will be dealt with. Xu Mo will bear the brunt. This is without a doubt.
Therefore, it can be affirmed that unless Xu Mo is insane, he definitely wouldn't dare to take action against Zhang Lei. I'm afraid he's more worried that Zhang Lei will take action against him!
From this perspective, Xu Mo's motives are worth pondering carefully.
Ji Feng suddenly remembered a sentence: When someone shows excessive kindness for no reason, there must be ulterior motives.
"No matter what you're up to, as long as I'm careful and cautious, I'm not afraid of you playing tricks." Ji Feng secretly said, "If you really want to deal with me, I will also let you know that I, Ji Feng, am definitely not made of mud. You can't just deal with me as you please. I will definitely give you a profound lesson. Even if I break a front tooth, I will also take a bite out of you!"
A cold light flashed in his eyes, Ji Feng clenched his fist, and then slowly let out a breath.
He is very clear that compared to Xu Mo now, he is not on the same level at all. Because Xu Mo has a high starting point, even if he is growing rapidly, he is still far inferior to him at present. Not to mention anything else, just in terms of background and support, he is not comparable to himself!
What's different from before is that Ji Feng doesn't feel inferior now. His view of himself is completely an extremely objective analysis and judgment because this is an objective fact.
To get himself out of such a disadvantage, he must learn to work hard, turn himself into the strong side, change himself from a weak one to a strong one, and make people dare not bully him casually anymore. This is what a weak person should do instead of feeling sorry for himself. Otherwise, the identity of a weak person will never change.
As the saying goes, there must be something 可恨 about a pitiful person. That's the truth!
Because being a weak person or a strong person is just a choice because of one's own choice. A small person can also turn things around. The key is to see if you have the courage and perseverance to complete this reversal!
"Feng'er, what are you thinking about? Why are you so absorbed?" Mother Xiao Sumei saw Ji Feng sitting in front of the dining table in a daze and couldn't help asking with concern, "Is the study at school too tiring?"
Seeing his mother's concerned eyes, Ji Feng hurriedly shook his head and said, "I'm fine, Mom. I'm just thinking about one thing!"
"What thing?" Xiao Sumei asked.
Ji Feng hesitated for a few times but didn't know how to say it. In fact, what he wanted to say was about the ten thousand yuan rewarded to him by Captain Yan. This ten thousand yuan had been in his hands for three days, but he didn't know how to tell his mother about this matter.
The reason is simple. If he tells his mother that this is a bonus he got for bravely fighting gangsters, it will not make his mother happy but will make her very worried. Because in his mother's eyes, how much money her son can earn is not important. The most important thing is that her son should be safe.
But other than telling the truth, there is no other reason that can reasonably explain why a high school student can earn ten thousand yuan. You know, Xiao Sumei, Ji Feng's mother, can't earn ten thousand yuan in a year by selling vegetables!
"Feng'er, if it's not convenient to say, then forget it. Mom believes you will definitely not act recklessly, right?" Xiao Sumei said with a smile.
A warm current surged in Ji Feng's heart. He nodded slightly and said, "Mom, don't worry. I won't act recklessly. Just now I was just thinking that the class organized a collective outing activity. I was considering whether to participate in this activity!"
Xiao Sumei immediately realized something and quickly asked, "Feng'er, does your activity require paying money? How much?"
Just as Ji Feng was about to speak, Xiao Sumei had already taken out a hundred yuan from her pocket and handed it to Ji Feng, saying, "Feng'er, collective activities should still be participated in. Don't worry about money!"
Ji Feng stared at his mother blankly. Looking at the few more wrinkles on her face, Ji Feng only felt his nose sour and it seemed as if something was about to flow out of his eyes!
"Mom, it's not for money!" Ji Feng returned the money to his mother and said, "I'm just hesitating. Originally, I could help you sell vegetables on the weekend, but if I go on an outing, I won't be able to help you!"
Xiao Sumei immediately smiled and asked, "Why, is Mom already so old that she can't move? Feng'er, go on an outing at ease. Mom can sell vegetables by herself!"
Ji Feng could only nod heavily and say, "Mom, don't worry. I will come back as soon as possible!"
Xiao Sumei patted her son's head and smiled, "You child, don't be so maverick. Keep a good relationship with your classmates. If you always don't participate in activities with your classmates, how can you have friends?"
Ji Feng nodded heavily, and the warm current in his heart flowed back and forth, constantly surging!
"The matter of this ten thousand yuan still needs to be explained to my mother when there is an opportunity. If I say it now, my mother will definitely worry." Ji Feng secretly said in his heart.
...
Early the next morning, Ji Feng got up. He first helped his mother transport the vegetables to the vegetable market, and then went to school. According to the previous agreement, the students of Class 6 should gather at the school gate!
When Ji Feng arrived here, it was already eight o'clock in the morning. Because it was the first weekend, the school seemed very deserted. And it seemed that the students in the class hadn't arrived yet. Ji Feng found a place to sit down next to the guard room at the school gate and quietly waited for the arrival of other classmates.
After a while, Zhang Lei with yellow hair rode his bicycle quickly to Ji Feng. Frowning, he asked, "Crazy guy, why are you the only one? Didn't we say that we would gather at eight o'clock at the latest?"
Ji Feng spread his hands and said innocently, "You ask me, then who should I ask!"
Zhang Lei gave him a blank look and scolded with a smile, "You kid, your answer is really straightforward... Eh, they are over there!"
Ji Feng immediately looked in the direction Zhang Lei was looking. He saw a group of students, about twenty or thirty people, coming out of a breakfast shop across from the school. Ji Feng could clearly see that these students were none other than the students of Class 6! The person walking at the front was Xu Mo!
Behind Xu Mo, several students had flattering smiles on their faces, just like honest followers!
A group of people came in front of Ji Feng and Zhang Lei. A student had a sarcastic smile in his eyes but pretended to be concerned and asked, "Ji Feng, why are you late? We said that we would gather at eight o'clock at the latest. We all came at seven thirty. Squad leader Xu even treated us to breakfast!"
Ji Feng sneered. These people didn't dare to laugh at Zhang Lei, but they were merciless to him. Being classmates with such students is simply a disgrace!
