Chapter Ninety-Seven: Abuse of Power for Personal Gain

"It's okay, it's okay. "I didn't expect Chen Xi to apologize to me, and I suddenly didn't know what to say.

The atmosphere between the two of us suddenly became awkward, and at this time the class bell rang, I didn't say anything more, and went back to class with Chen Xi.

During class, I felt that someone was poking my arm, and when I turned my head, it was Chen Xi who stretched out his finger and poked me.

She gave me a cautious look and shoved a small note into me.

Confused, I picked up the note and spread it out.

There is a sentence neatly written on it: Li Juan, I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to ask embarrassing questions.

When I saw this note, I was a little embarrassed.

After all, the incident just now was just a trivial matter, but I didn't expect Chen Xi to remember it for so long.

I lowered my head and wrote on the note: It's okay, it's my own reason, it's none of your business.

Before handing the note to Chen Xi, at this time, Zhang Xueqin seemed to see our small movements, and her voice raised a few degrees: "Li Juan, you come up and answer this question!"

I immediately put the note down, feeling a little weak.

When I came on stage and glanced at the topic, I felt a little uncertain for a while.

I seem to have mastered the knowledge points involved in this question, but I don't seem to have fully understood them.

I was holding the chalk, and it was a bit difficult to ride a tiger, but in the end I finally wrote this math problem.

Unsurprisingly, I didn't get it right.

This time, Zhang Xueqin seized the opportunity and criticized me severely.

"If you don't listen carefully in class, you make small moves there, I thought you would be able to. What did you do? I've talked about this in the previous lessons, and you still don't know how to ......."

“...... Put me back in my seat and stand up for the lesson!"

For the next half of the class, I stood in my seat, and Chen Xi on the side looked at me worriedly from time to time.

After class, Chen Xi apologized to me again, and she said extremely carefully: "I'm sorry, Li Juan, it's all my fault, I did something wrong again, and you were punished." ”

When I heard this, I laughed dumbly and said, "It's okay, I don't care about this kind of thing at all." You don't have to apologize to me. ”

Then, I remembered that I hadn't replied to Chen Xi about the note before, so I said to her: "Actually, my mother and Zheng Xinguang's father are reorganized families, so Zheng Xinguang is my nominal brother." ”

This seems to be the first time I explained to someone about me and Zheng Xinguang.

When Chen Xi heard this, he immediately showed a sudden expression.

Contacting what Chen Yueru said before that my mother was doing something about being a junior, Chen Xi said at this time: "Li Juan, I will never believe what I heard from others. Thank you for telling me about your home. ”

Then she seemed to be moved by me and told me about her background.

"Actually, I sometimes have some problems because of my family's business. When I was six years old, I was left behind by my parents in the countryside at my grandparents' house, and my grandfather passed away three years ago, leaving me and my grandmother to depend on each other. ”

"I only vaguely remember that I had an older brother. ”

Hearing Chen Xi's life experience, I couldn't help but be a little moved, and asked her, "Have you never met your parents?"

Chen Xi nodded.

I thought of how little I had of my father, and said to Chen Yueru: "Actually, my father was swept away by the flood when I was very young, and I don't know what kind of person my father is. ”

Hearing this, Chen Xi's eyes were a little stunned, and then she sniffed and said, "But I believe that my father loves me, and your father should be too." ”

Seeing a girl from a similar background to me comforting me so much warmed my heart.

I nodded and said to her, "I won't have a chance to see my dad, but you're different, maybe you can see your dad when you have a chance in the future." ”

When Chen Xi heard my words, there seemed to be a light in his eyes fluctuating.

I suddenly felt that my heart was closer to her, and I felt a sense of sympathy for a while.

We comforted each other a few more times, as if we were licking each other's wounds, and the wounds that had penetrated deep into the bones seemed to fade suddenly.

The fourth class was PE and we were asked by the PE teacher to run 800 meters.

Chen Xi fell to the back because his body was a little bulky.

I usually exercise, so I finished running quickly.

After the run, I saw that Chen Xi was still far away from the finish line, so I ran with her outside the track, cheering for her: "Come on, Chen Xi, you will definitely be able to! Let's run together, we will be there soon!"

Chen Xi was already a little out of breath and sweating all over her head when she ran away, but when she heard my words, she opened her eyes wide, nodded, and continued to run.

I kept cheering her on as I ran.

In the end, we finally finished the lap together, and Chen Xi and I bent down breathlessly, looked at each other, and couldn't help but smile.

This is the first time since I met Chen Xi that I saw her smile so happily, she said to me while laughing and panting: "Thank you! If it weren't for you...... I might just not be able to make it. ”

"It's okay, you have a lot of potential. It's good to run away!"

We laughed again.

I realized in a trance that I had finally gained real friendship in this class.

Because of Chen Xi's arrival, I am not so lonely in the class.

After class, we went back to class, and at this time, trouble came to the door.

"Chen Xi," Chen Yueru waved the banner of the squad leader, counting Chen Xi, "You ran and fell behind, but you really dragged us back from the third class!

As she said this, she glanced at me from time to time, as if watching for my reaction.

Then she said one more thing, and I suddenly realized that maybe because Chen Xi played with me, Chen Yueru is also very "careful" of Chen Xi now.

"Hey, you move the desk back, the space left in the back is so big, it will affect the class capacity. Chen Yueru said to the people in front of me at this time.

When the people in the front row heard Chen Yueru's words, they had no objections, and immediately moved the desks and chairs back.

I heard Chen Yueru let out a muffled snort.

Because Chen Xi was relatively fat, and the seat was against the wall, the front table and chairs were moved back at this time, causing the gap between our tables and chairs to shrink sharply, and Chen Xi's back was close to the wall.

She sat in such a seat, and she always looked aggrieved.

When I saw this, I couldn't help but get angry, and said to the girl in the front row, "You move the desk forward." ”

But the girls in the front row seemed to listen selectively to what others had to say, and turned a deaf ear to my repeated requests.

I thought that these girls had always looked down on Chen Yueru, and suddenly I couldn't help it, and said to Chen Yueru: "What do you want to do, is it fun to use power for personal gain?"
