Chapter 51: Truant and Caught
In the morning's class, Xu Xinyi was absent-minded. What the teacher said on the stage, I forgot everything after class.
There was a faint uneasiness in my heart, as if something was going to happen.
*
Shen Chenchen went to the office to ask the head teacher for an afternoon off after lunch, the head teacher usually doesn't like students to ask for leave, and when he saw that Shen Chenchen was doing well, he didn't approve it.
Shen Chenchen had no choice but to roll out of the backyard of the school.
After searching outside the school for an afternoon, I finally found a single room. The landlord saw that he was a student and that he was so close to the school, so he would not live in vain and not pay. He only received one month's rent. At the beginning of each month, we will come on time to collect the rent of the current month.
Shen Chenchen looked at his watch, there was still half an hour before school. His bag was still in his desk. So I still have to go to the classroom to get it before the school closes.
So in the last class, he climbed into the backyard of the school again.
This flip happened to be in front of Old Man Zeng.
Old man Zeng also coincidentally, he didn't stay in the office in the afternoon, but went for a walk in the backyard of the school.
He was a lot older, walking on a secluded path, but he didn't want a dark shadow to jump in front of him, so frightened that a handful of hair on his head almost didn't fall off.
Although Shen Chenchen didn't look at him squarely, he glanced at the top of his glowing head, and he didn't need to guess to know who it was, he was the only teacher in the school with such a hairstyle.
Old man Zeng hurriedly ran towards him with his little short legs, shouting as he ran: "Eh, classmate, which school are you from?" ”
Shen Chenchen heard a sound of broken footsteps behind him, and his feet subconsciously sped up, but fortunately he was not recognized by him.
If you let him know who it is, you must not be pestered by him for an afternoon.
Shen Chenchen's legs were long, and he ran away without a trace after a while.
After all, Old Man Zeng is old, and he will be out of breath when he runs a few steps.
But his eyes were still very good, because he saw Shen Chenchen go up to the second floor. The entire sophomore class is on the second floor.
This shows that he is a student of this school.
And there is only one person who dares not to wear a school uniform in this school.
After such an analysis, Old Man Zeng basically locked the target.
Relentlessly chased after him.
When Shen Chenchen entered the classroom, the subject teacher happened to go out for something.
He had the foresight to know that Teacher Zeng would not give up if he didn't catch him, so he stood on the podium and said to the students in the audience: "If Teacher Zeng comes in and asks, you will say that I am in the classroom all day!" ”
The students in the audience were silently writing their homework, and only a few girls nodded desperately in response to him.
He quickly returned to his seat, took off his coat, turned it over and put it back on. It's like magic.
Xu Xinyi was stunned. It turns out that this guy's clothes are still wearing front and back. The front is black and the inside is white.
Sure enough, before he sat down for a while, Old Man Zeng came in. The strands of yellow hair on the top of his head were blown to his forehead by the wind, and he didn't look funny. It caused several students to laugh at the bottom.
Old man Zeng coughed dryly, and calmly lifted his hair back to the top of his head. He glanced at Shen Chenchen's seat, obviously stunned. This kid was not wearing this color just now. But that height, figure, and side face are clearly him.
Shen Chenchen sat calmly in his seat, his eyes staring intently at the textbook, but his ears were waiting for him to speak.
Old man Zeng paced around the podium before he slowly asked, "Has Shen Chenchen been in class today?" ”
"Yes, teacher!" Seeing that no one answered, the girl opened her mouth to answer.
Teacher Zeng snorted coldly and said to the girl: "You do your homework well, I didn't ask you." ”
The girl had no choice but to hang her head boredly and stop looking at him.
"Yu Mingtao, you answer!" Mr. Zeng has always trusted his former class president, so he will definitely tell the truth to himself.
Yu Mingtao scratched his eyebrows and glanced back at Shen Chenchen.
Shen Chenchen was chuckling lightly at the corners of his mouth, without a trace of worry.
"Teacher, I was too serious in class today, and I didn't look at the back of the classroom, so I don't know if Shen Chenchen was in the classroom all day. As you know, I'm not a class leader now. ”
Xu Xinyi suddenly felt that the former squad leader was really good at talking, and neither side could be offended.
Old man Zeng was so angry that the wrinkled skin on his face shook and shook. But the spirit of drilling the horns of a bull like him will not stop there.
He cast his eyes on Xu Xinyi's face again. The voice was very serious: "What about Xu Xinyi?" ”
Xu Xinyi didn't want to care about these things, besides, Shen Chenchen had also saved himself, he hadn't come to class this afternoon, and he knew that he was looking for a house without asking. So I'm a little impatient with Old Man Zeng's endless pursuits.
She raised her head to look at Old Man Zeng, and replied without thinking, "It seems that I have been in the classroom all along, and I haven't paid much attention to it." ”
"What are you doing in this class?"
Someone from the podium responded to him: "Physics class." ”
Old man Zeng paced around the podium with his arms crossed: "Okay, then I'll wait here for your physics teacher to come and ask him personally." ”
Shen Chenchen's eyebrows were furrowed, he had just skipped an afternoon of class. Teacher Zeng is not a class teacher, why do you care so much about idle things. Seeing that the end of school is approaching. The physics teacher has not yet returned to the classroom. He knew that with Mr. Zeng's personality, he would definitely investigate this matter thoroughly to the end, and he would not stop without results.
As long as he reflects, he will know if he is in class or not. When the time comes, it will only be more troublesome.
It's better to stand up and admit it now, at most, he will punish himself for standing or memorizing texts or something.
Shen Chenchen's cold eyes narrowed, and he slowly looked up at the podium.
He gently pulled the zipper of his coat, took it off, and turned it over and put it on his body. He was dressed the same as when Mr. Zeng saw him.
"Don't you want to know? That person was me. Shen Chenchen's voice was low, and he was really speechless at the stubborn old man.
"I'll just say I'm not old and dizzy. You finally dare to admit it. As the head of a class, you don't do well in class, and you skip school, how do you set an example for other students? ”
"The head teacher doesn't approve leave, what can I do?" Shen Chenchen's voice was full of impatience.
If it goes on like this, the two must not quarrel. Old man Zeng has always turned his face and denied people, if he provokes him a few more times, Shen Chenchen is afraid that he will not be able to stay in this school.
Xu Xinyi didn't know what was wrong with her, so she stood up and said to Teacher Zeng on the podium: "Teacher Zeng, don't ask, Shen Chenchen and his younger brother are sick and hospitalized, the situation is very urgent, he went to ask the head teacher for leave, but the head teacher didn't approve it, so he had to skip class and go out." It's just a special case, and you should be able to understand it. ”
Shen Chenchen listened to her in a daze, and he didn't know why this girl was so good today, and she would even help him speak.
Old man Zeng finally put out the fire, and his voice was not so stiff, but said earnestly: "There are things at home that can be explained clearly to the head teacher, and it is not that the teacher cannot understand, because there are many students who go out to Internet cafes under the guise of surfing the Internet." Since you are a squad leader, you must have the appearance of a squad leader and play a good leading role. You say you skip school over the wall, is this what a student should do? ”
The students under the podium all lowered their heads and did their own things, and no one wanted to listen to him.
Shen Chenchen also supported his head with his arm, only to feel that his head was swollen.
Before the school bell rang, Teacher Zeng finally made a concluding words: "Squad Leader Shen, hand me a review book before school tomorrow, and this matter will be over." ”
Review book? Shen Chenchen has read books for so many years since he was a child, and no teacher has ever asked him to write a review. It was the first time I had transferred to Anglo-Chinese Secondary School.
Shen Chenchen waited until the classmates in the class were almost gone before getting up from his seat, putting his backpack on his shoulder, and when he walked to Xu Xinyi's seat, he said lightly without any emotion in his words: "Thank you!" ”
Xu Xinyi raised her eyes to look at him. Just a slight smile.
Although both of them wanted to go back to Xingfu Jiayuan after school, Shen Chenchen still went back before her.
When Xu Xinyi returned home, Ding Shengyan was collecting clothes from the balcony with him.
Shen Chenchen squatted next to the sofa and opened the suitcase, checked the contents to make sure that nothing was missing, and then folded the clothes in Ding Shengyan's hand and put them in and closed the zipper.
"Mom, then I'm leaving."
Ding Shengyan's eyes flashed with tears again, as if she was parting with life and death, and said, "I'll go with you." ”
"No, I'm not a child." Shen Chenchen said with a smile.
Xu Xinyi rarely looked at him and smiled, and her indifferent face seemed to have never had much emotion. The eyes are sometimes deep and terrifying, obviously a teenager, but the eyes are full of loneliness that has gone through vicissitudes.
She didn't know what had happened to this boy, she had only heard from her father a long time ago that Ding Shengyan was a poor woman, and she also saw that Ding Shengyan's ex-husband was a gambler with domestic violence on the information found by Zhao Bin.
Xu Xinyi's heart sprouted sympathy, if what was said in those materials was true, then Shen Chenchen must have also suffered domestic violence.
She couldn't imagine how such a boy would react to his father's violence.
Shen Chenchen and Ding Shengyan packed their luggage and raised their eyes to see Xu Xinyi standing at the door distracted.
"You're back?" Shen Chenchen said lightly.
Xu Xinyi woke up from her state of distraction in a panic, and reluctantly smiled at him.
As soon as Ding Shengyan saw her, it was like seeing an enemy, so she didn't have a good face, if it weren't for her son here, she would have wanted to go directly into the bedroom, so as not to see her affect her mood.
Shen Chenchen didn't say anything more, holding a folding bicycle in one hand and a black suitcase in the other. Ding Shengyan insisted on helping him share the luggage, snatched the suitcase from his hand, and followed him.
Xu Xinyi hurriedly made way for the two of them and let them out.
Before closing the door, Ding Shengyan said to the crack in the door: "Don't think you can drive us away, this home will be mine sooner or later." ”
When Xu Xinyi heard this, she frowned unconsciously, and a fire rose in her heart, it turned out to be like this, let's see!
No matter what, I will defend this home for my mother!
