After the midterm exam, Jiang Qiao's score dropped two places.

Although she is now a sweetheart, the homeroom teacher still talked to her seriously. The meaning of the words is that I hope she can also give full play to the spirit of competition in her studies and move forward bravely. After all, as a student, learning is the main business, and the upcoming college entrance examination is an important turning point in their lives. is also dissatisfied with Jiang Qiao's results, as well as Jiang Qiao's mother Yu Huizhen. Yu Huizhen is usually very busy with work, and she doesn't have much time to spend on her daughter, and she even only knows about such a major event as her daughter's participation in the competition and winning the award. But on the issue of grades, she is the same as all parents who hope that their sons will become Chan and their daughters will become phoenixes.

Jiang Qiao, who received two criticisms in a row, had to put more emphasis on studying, neither had the energy to worry about the missing Pei Yi, nor did he have the heart to think about Su Xi, who had caused a conflict, and even had less time to mix with Gao Xiaoyun. In addition to the daily morning jog and the weekend martial arts training, the rest of the time is almost buried in the sea of questions.

Campus life seems to have calmed down again, day after day, without waves. I thought that such days would last forever, but a strange phone call a week later would completely shatter this peace.

On this day, Yu Huizhen, who had just finished the night shift, was changing her clothes and preparing to get off work, but her mobile phone suddenly rang, and it was an unfamiliar number.

"- Hello?"

"Hey, hello Auntie, I'm Jiang Qiao's classmate-"

There was a sweet female voice on the other end of the phone, which sounded a little deliberately speaking in her throat, which made people feel uncomfortable. But when she heard that it was a classmate from her daughter's school, Yu Huizhen patiently asked her what was wrong.

"Auntie, it's like this-there's something about Jiang Qiao, I don't know if I should tell you or not-"

Five minutes later, Ms. Yu sat on a bench in the dressing room, trying to make out a photo she had just sent to her phone. The distance from which the photo was taken was a little far, so that the faces of the boy and girl in the school uniform in the photo were a little blurred, and they could only vaguely distinguish from the school uniform that they were indeed students from the thirteenth middle school. The boy in the photo only has a straight back, and his raised right hand happened to touch the girl's eyebrows, which was inexplicably a little intimate, but the girl happened to be photographed on the front face. With the unique intuition of an old mother, Yu Huizhen recognized it almost immediately as her daughter Jiang Qiao.

Is this - is her daughter really in early love?!

Jiang Qiao, who didn't know that the storm was coming, spent a boring day in the sea of questions. When the evening self-study bell rang, she quickly packed her schoolbag and prepared to go home, and before leaving the classroom, she took out her mobile phone as usual to see if there was any news about Pei Yi.

At this glance, he was stunned. There was indeed a new message on the phone, but it was not from Uncle Pei, but from Su Xi, who hadn't spoken for a long time.

"Aqiao, I just saw your mother at the school gate, and it seems that she came to pick you up from school. ”

Her mom came to pick her up from school?

No, why didn't you say a word to her, did you come quietly to surprise her?

Jiang Qiaohuan happily walked out of the school gate, and saw his mother standing under the street lamp. Maybe it's the mother-daughter connection, she instinctively feels that her mother's mood at the moment doesn't seem to be very beautiful......

Hmm, it seems that she was surprised or something, she thought too much......

Yu Huizhen had been waiting for a long time, and when she saw Jiang Qiao coming out, she immediately searched around carefully to see if there was a male classmate's back similar to the one in the photo, but there was no gain.

Jiang Qiao turned his head from side to side curiously and asked, "Mom, what are you looking for?"

Yu Huizhen glared at Jiang Qiao and said, "-Go home first!" After that, he took Jiang Qiao's hand and left.

Jiang Qiao was inexplicably worried all the way, although she didn't know why her mother was so angry, but with her years of experience in surviving, she felt that she might be beaten......

Sure enough, as soon as she got home, Yu Huizhen immediately made a difficulty, slapped a photo on the table, and asked her who the boy in the photo was, what his name was, which class, and what his grades were!

Jiang Qiao was asked inexplicably.

picked up the photo and looked at it, and immediately recognized that it was her and Pei Yi. It should have been photographed on the way to Yanwutang with Pei Yi after school on a Saturday a year ago. At that time, it seemed that there was something dirty on her eyebrows, and Pei Yi raised his hand to point her in the direction after finding it, and asked her to get rid of it herself. It should have been at that time, who caught it.

Jiang Qiao seemed to have some bad premonition, and after a few turns in his brain, he had already guessed the reason why his mother was so angry. This photo will not appear for no reason, and it happened to be in the hands of his mother, someone must have done something on purpose.

"Mom, where did you get this picture?"

Yu Huizhen's face turned blue, so she went to touch the stick and came out to serve: "You still dare to ask me where I came from?

"Mom, don't be angry first, listen to me, it's a misunderstanding-"

"Misunderstanding?!" Yu Huizhen pointed to the girl in the photo and asked Jiang Qiao: "-Is this you?"

Jiang Qiao said yes, and she asked again: "-Is this your classmate?"

"It's my classmate, but—"

Yu Huizhen slapped the table and stood up, and finally said angrily: "-Are you in early love?!"

Really......

She knew that her mother had fallen into the pit.

"Mom- it's not what you think, you listen to me explain-"

"As a student, you don't even put your mind on studying, no wonder your grades have regressed-" Yu Huizhen was furious, where was she willing to listen to her explanation, and scolded her like a cannon: "You fell in love at a young age! You are too bold, if someone hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known how long I would have been hidden! I'm so angry——!"

Jiang Qiao felt that there was a green tendon in his head that was beating and aching, and for a while, many emotions came to his heart at the same time, including the sadness of being misunderstood, the grievance of being wronged, and the burning anger-

She was overwhelmed by many emotions, she didn't know how to explain it to make her mother believe her, what was that feeling of helplessness called?

By the way, there is no way to argue.

"In any case, it is a fact that your grades have regressed! Now that you are about to enter the third year of high school, have you put your mind on studying? Have you taken the upcoming college entrance examination as a thing? How many times has your mother told you that the college entrance examination is an important turning point in your life, and you should pay attention to it! You must pay attention to it! But what are you doing——? who are you worthy of?"

Jiang Qiao choked uncomfortably in his heart, looking at the deepening fine lines at the corners of his mother's eyes and the few strands of gray hair looming on his temples, he couldn't say a word.

"Think about it! The future is your own, if you can't get into a good school, don't come to me when you cry in the future!"

Yu Huizhen turned around and went back to the room, slamming the door shut, leaving Jiang Qiao alone in the living room, cleaning up her embarrassment alone.

After the morning exercise the next day, Jiang Qiao didn't say a word, and directly blocked Lin Weiwei at the door of the women's toilet.

"—did you do it?"

Straight to the point, there is nothing to hide, except for Lin Weiwei, she doesn't think second-hand.

Lin Weiwei didn't seem to bother to go around the bend with her at all, and happily admitted it.

"This is the school, can you dare to hit me?"

Jiang Qiao didn't sleep well last night, and he always felt a wave of anger in his chest, and he was provoked by Lin Weiwei at this moment, and he was about to explode immediately. She grabbed Lin Weiwei's collar and raised her hand to give her a few slaps. Whatever it is, let's get this out first!

Her hand was grabbed hard from behind, she turned her head to see that it was Su Xi who was blushing, because she was running too fast, the bangs on her forehead were messily mixed with sweat, sticking to her forehead, while pulling her hand hard, she shook her head and said, "Ah, Aqiao-don't-"

Jiang Qiao tried hard to withdraw her hand, but Su Xi used her strength to pull her hand hard, saying that she would not let go of anything.

"Ah, Acho—don't—don't, don't—don't be impulsive—"

Lin Weiwei took the opportunity to laugh and said: "Jiang Feifei, you see that Su Xiao stammers and knows more about current affairs - it's not right to beat people, didn't the teacher teach you?"

Fortunately, the class bell rang at this time, and Jiang Qiao had to let go of Lin Weiwei.

"You'd better come with me to the teacher and clarify the matter. ”

Lin Weiwei raised her hand and slowly smoothed the school uniform on her chest, and looked at Jiang Qiao like a fool: "Go with you to the teacher? Are you broken——? but in the next second, her eyes narrowed, as if she thought of something, and leaned into Jiang Qiao's ear and whispered: "It's not impossible - as long as you come to the small park outside the school after school tomorrow afternoon, one-on-one, we will make a decision." ”

*

Throughout the day, Su Xi kept thinking in Jiang Qiao's ear, stammering and persuading her not to fall for Lin Weiwei.

"Ah, Aqiao-you, don't you go-Lin Weiwei, she, she, just wants to provoke, provoke you-"

"It's not right to beat, it's not right to hit someone—you'll be punished by the school—"

"And, and—I've often heard, heard—small, little park, there's, there's, there's thugs—you, you mustn't, don't go—"

In fact, Su Xi had already guessed what Lin Weiwei wanted to do, but Jiang Qiao, who was angry, couldn't listen to anything. She is not Su Xi, she can't be as patient as she is, and since Lin Weiwei has repeatedly provoked without a bottom line, she doesn't need to endure it anymore!

"Xixi, you don't need to persuade - Lin Weiwei has gone too far this time! I think she is right in one sentence, between me and her. It really should be broken!"

*

After school the next afternoon, no matter how hard Su Xi begged, Jiang Qiao still insisted on going to the small park.

I have to say that Lin Weiwei is really good at choosing a place, this small park is actually basically in a semi-deserted state, and there are very few people who usually come, and Lin Weiwei chose such a secluded little corner, which is even more inaccessible, even if something really happens here, I'm afraid it will be difficult for anyone to find out.

Intuition told Jiang Qiao that this matter might not be so simple, but fortunately Su Xi didn't come with her, this was not a scene she could handle at all......

Sure enough, soon a few young men emerged from the corner. One, two, three, four...... There are men and women, they don't look much older than Jiang Qiao, they all have tattooed arms, smoke cigarettes, their hair is dyed colorful, and their faces are full of ruffian hooligan atmosphere, and they look like the bad young people in society in the teacher's mouth.

What about the one-on-one that was said? Lin Weiwei didn't show up at all!
