Chapter Seventy-Six: Vinegar
I don't know who spread the message, but after just one English class, the news that Harry was going to be embarrassed spread around the campus. After a whole noon and an afternoon, except for Connor, none of the classmates took the initiative to say a word to Zongheng.www.biquge.info
It was Harry's guess. Such a small trick may work well against ordinary students, but Zongheng is not an ordinary student. With an adult soul, he doesn't like to be lively, and he doesn't feel that he has any common language with this group of little children. They don't bother him, but they feel that they are in the right place.
It wasn't until the end of the afternoon when he stepped out of school that he heard his name call his name for the first time except Connor.
"Li Mo!"
He turned his head to look, but it was Yuan Yi, whom he had only met in the morning.
Zongheng stopped and asked, "Did you wait for me here on purpose, or did you happen to meet me?" ”
Yuan Yi didn't expect Zongheng to ask such a question, and when he was stunned, he felt a little difficult to answer. After a few moments, she replied, "Of course, I was waiting for you here...... Let's go together! ”
It should have been a logical word, but because of that question, it made Yuan Yi feel a little embarrassed to say it.
Zongheng thought for a moment before slowly nodding.
Seeing that Zongheng seemed to be a little reluctant, Yuan Yi suddenly felt a little depressed. Thinking of his question just now, it made Yuan Yi a little angry.
Thinking of her Yuanyi, she is not only his "life-saving benefactor", but also a goddess-level figure at school. As a well-known kung fu master at the University of Chicago High School, she has countless fans in the school, and many boys are eager to walk with her. But this guy is good, not only is he not grateful to her, but he also shows an unhappy look at her proposal to go home together, how does this make her not feel depressed? She had come to him in a hurry when she heard the news that Harry was going to embarrass him, and she was really disappointed by her hot face and cold ass.
Because of the bad mood, Yuan Yi just walked with his head stuffed along the way, thinking that he couldn't stand it anymore, and after taking the initiative to talk to her, he first scolded him and let out a bad breath, and then told him the news.
But the two walked all the way, and they were about to walk back to Hyde Park, and Zongheng still showed no signs of talking to Yuan Yi. Yuan Yi couldn't hold it back, she grabbed Zongheng's arm and said, "Hey! Are you mute? Why didn't you say a word along the way? ”
How did she know that the reason why Zongheng didn't want to talk to her was because she was scared by her gushing way of talking in the morning. He was afraid that once he made a start, the girl would be noisy all the way. As the saying goes, two women are equal to a thousand ducks, but Zongheng thinks that Yuan Yi alone can be worth 1,500 ducks.
Zongheng was surprised: "What do you think I should say?" ”
"Don't you want to know why I waited for you at the school gate?"
"Of course I want to know. But when you want to say it, you always say it yourself, don't you? ”
"......" He said so reasonably, Yuan Yi suddenly felt speechless.
Seeing Yuan Yi's embarrassed face, Zongheng thought about it and felt that he couldn't embarrass her too much. He pointed to an apartment building not far away and said, "I'm almost home." What do you have to say now? ”
Hearing this, Yuan Yi immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She was also really worried about what she would do if she really ignored her.
She cleared her throat and said, "I heard a piece of news today. It's about you. ”
"Oh? Tell me about it? ”
"Year 10 Harry wants to get you in trouble."
"Harry in Year 10? Is this his nickname? It's quite smooth. Zongheng suddenly laughed. He wouldn't take a little boy's threat seriously. This "tenth-year Harry" has long been on his blacklist, and it is already a blessing that Zongheng does not trouble him, and this kid still dares to come to him for trouble? Isn't this looking for death?
Zongheng's reaction made Yuan Yi stunned for a moment, she stayed for a moment, and said, "It seems that you already know who he is, right?" ”
Zongheng smiled and nodded, and briefly told Yuan Yi what happened in the corridor after the morning biology class.
Yuan Yi hurriedly said: "You already know that Harry's father is a state legislator and a trustee of the high school affiliated to the University of Chicago, so do you know that he has another identity under this glamorous coat?" ”
"Another identity?" Hearing this, he knew that he didn't know, and suddenly became serious, "What is it?" ”
Seeing Zongheng's joking expression, Yuan Yi felt a little proud in his heart. She replied, "Do you know the Lukese family?" ”
"House Lukese?" Zongheng was stunned for a moment, why did he have anything to do with these guys again?
Zongheng's performance fell in Yuan Yi's eyes, and she interpreted it as not knowing anything. She explains, "The Lukese family is the largest mafia family in Chicago and has been around for more than seven decades. As far as I know, Harry's father had a close relationship with the Lucaese family, and it could even be said that he was the face of the Lucaese family's support in the state legislature. ”
"What does this have to do with Harry in Year 10 trying to get me in trouble?" Zongheng asked.
"Harry's father doted on him very much. In order to build his reputation as a genius so that he can inherit his mantle in the future, Harry even made Harry skip to the tenth year through various connections. Although Harry himself was not angry, he failed to continue the legend. But this did not detract from his father's affection for him. ”
"You're saying that if I get into a conflict with Harry, he'll probably use his father's power to retaliate against me?"
"That's right." Yuan Yi nodded and said, "He's this kind of person." Although he is seventeen years old, his mentality is no different from that of a spoiled child. ”
"How do you know so much about his family's affairs?" Zongheng asked.
"You don't care how I know. I naturally have my news channels. As long as you know, just because we are both Chinese, I will not harm you. ”
Not necessarily. Zongheng thought silently in his heart. It is not uncommon for a fellow villager to see a fellow countryman with tears in his eyes, but there are also many things about "a fellow villager sees a fellow villager and stabs him in the back". It's just that Zongheng doesn't think that Yuan Yi will do any good to lie to himself in this matter.
"Thank you for the reminder," he said. I'll take notice. ”
"That ......"
Before Yuan Yi finished speaking, someone on the side suddenly shouted: "Zongheng!" ”
Hearing this voice, Zongheng was suddenly shocked. He could hear it as Hannah's voice. But how could she call her real name in front of outsiders?
Hannah knew Zongheng's real name after he confessed to her that he had regained his memory. At that time, Zongheng and Hannah made an appointment, except when the two were alone, Hannah could only call Zongheng "Nemo" or "Li Mo". Hannah has been doing a good job these days, never saying anything in front of Lydia. But what's going on today?
Zongheng hurriedly pretended not to hear, and didn't even glance at Hannah. In this way, he wanted to remind Hannah: Don't call me that!
But Hannah didn't know what she was saying. She only knew that she had come back from school, and before she got home, she saw Zongheng and a beautiful Asian girl tugging and talking.
For a moment, the jealousy swelled up, and Hannah's mind got into the horns. She didn't even realize what it meant to ignore her call. She thought she had just not heard it.
So, she walked up quickly, put her arms around Zongheng, and asked, "Are you back?" This little girl is your classmate? ”
Hannah's ignorance made Zongheng very helpless. But it was not good for him to shake off her hand at this moment, and it was impossible for him to pretend not to know her. Zongheng had no choice but to introduce the two daughters: "Hannah, this is my classmate Yuanyi. She is also Chinese. Yuanyi, this is my sister Hannah. ”
Sister? Yuan Yi looked at the two people in front of him with a questioning expression.
They don't look like each other at all. Yuan Yi thought to herself. In addition, what did this sister named Hannah call Li Mo just now? Aspect? What a strange name.
With a stomach full of questions, Yuan Yi greeted Hannah: "Hello ......"
As soon as he looked at Yuan Yi's face, he knew what she was thinking. He forcibly suppressed his dissatisfaction with Hannah and explained with a smile: "Zongheng is my milk name. Hannah is used to it, but she can't change her mouth for a while. ”
It was only then that Hannah remembered that she had just lost her words. She hurriedly smiled and said, "That's right! That's right! Nemo's milk name is Zongheng. I used to call him by that name. ”
"I see. I thought it was weird! Yuan Yi hurriedly said.
That being said, in Yuan Yi's heart, he still felt a little strange. After all, it is too strange to use the word vertical and horizontal as a milk name.
Of course, as a girl with a passing emotional intelligence, Yuan Yi would not say such a question to her face.
After everything to be said, and Hannah's appearance made the atmosphere between the three of them a little strange, Yuan Yi immediately said goodbye to Zongheng and Hannah and walked to his house.
Watching Yuan Yi's back disappear on the street corner, Hannah patted her chest and sighed: "It's so dangerous!" It scared the hell out of me! ”
Zongheng snorted and said, "What's going on with you today?" Forgot our agreement? ”
"I'm sorry!" Hannah sneered, "People were a little anxious when they saw you pulling and pulling with that little girl, so they forgot about it!" Fortunately, isn't the circle back in the end? Don't be angry, okay? ”
"......" Zongheng really didn't know what to say.
After a while, he said angrily: "Then people have to believe it!" ”
"What if she doesn't believe her?" Hannah thought about it, the explanation just now was indeed a bit far-fetched, and she suddenly panicked.
"What else? Cold! Zongheng said, "Let's go!" Go home! ”
