Chapter 1: The Troubled Youth

Next Chapter

Qinghe High School, lunch break.

One of the classrooms was a bit noisy, and the students were in groups of threes and twos, discussing the newly released game "Nine Heavenly Domains" half a month ago.

Their expressions were excited, their expressions were excited, and they were spitting when they talked about having fun, and they were very lively.

Only the corner of the back row of the classroom by the window forms a vacuum.

A thin young man, with his arms on his lean, looking out of the window with a small face, was very quiet, and was a little out of touch with the lively environment.

Because.... He hadn't played that game at all.

Zhang Xiao's family is poor, he has been dependent on his grandfather since he was a child, and he only relies on 500 yuan a month to make a living, and the most advanced electrical appliances in the family are the old man's radio, how can he have such high-end gadgets as the login end of "Nine Heavenly Domains"!

Not only that, Zhang Xiao has never even used a mobile phone, which makes him seem to be a figure living in the last century in the eyes of his classmates.

But Zhang Xiao didn't think so, because he had been watching other people's children's novel toys since he was a child.... I'm used to it.

Because of this, Zhang Xiao has no friends, his presence in the class is very low, and even in the three years of high school, many classmates have never spoken to him.

Even the class teacher, few of them could call him by name.

If you want to say that the one who communicates with him the most in the class, it is Song Zhennan.

Song Zhennan is a typical gentleman, his family is still quite powerful, the school has already been done well, he goes to school purely for fun, he changes girlfriends at the end of three days, and often beats male classmates.

At school, I don't know how many men and women were "scourged" by him...

Although the two communicate a lot, it does not mean that they have a good relationship, but on the contrary, it is because Song Zhennan often bullies Zhang Xiao...

Song Zhennan has some power in school, and many classmates see him as submissive, but Zhang Xiao doesn't understand his "forces", so Song Zhennan has always looked at him unpleasantly.

At this time, the crowd in the front row of the class burst into laughter, as if something was expected to happen.

"Brother Nan, you lost, go quickly."

"Hahaha, this one is interesting".

"It's not challenging for our Brother Nan!".

"Hee-hee, it's lively again."

“......”。

There were men and women in the front row, talking in a few words, and at the same time focusing their eyes on Song Zhennan.

Song Zhennan glanced at the back row, and the corners of his mouth curled up with a light smile.

"Let's go, then let's go".

Sure enough, while speaking, he took the two boys and walked to Zhang Xiao in the back row.

At this time, Zhang Xiao was still looking out the window.

For outside, in the flower bed, he saw a large ant, the size of a thumb, and although it was far away, it was still clearly visible.

Zhang Xiao was still sighing in his heart, such a big ant, he had lived for eighteen years and it was the first time he had seen it...

But at this moment, a sudden sound of breaking wind sounded in my ears, and then a sharp pain in my cheeks came, and my body fell to the ground uncontrollably with the chair.

His forehead hit the cold floor tiles, buzzing, and there were bursts of sharp pain on his body, he subconsciously protected his head with both arms, and his body arched into a prawn-like shape.

Bang bang bang!

Song Zhennan took two students and punched and kicked Zhang Xiao who was curled up on the ground.

As for the other students, no one came up to dissuade them, but a few people in the front row watched all this with great interest.

Especially a girl with eyeliner on her lips, with a playful smile on her lips, as if she was watching a play, as if it was just a game to pass the boring time of school.

"Stop!".

Suddenly, an abrupt voice came from the door of the classroom, attracting everyone's attention.

A beautiful face came into view, and although it was angry, it was still amazing.

Chen Yunuo is the class leader of their class, and he is also the class flower of this class.

Hearing her stop, Song Zhennan really stopped.

"Hehe, since squad leader Chen has spoken, then I will give you a face", he chuckled.

Song Zhennan beat Zhang Xiao, obviously at fault, but said that he was giving Chen Yunuo a face, which can be described as extremely arrogant.

At the same time, he looked at Zhang Xiao on the ground again, revealing a playful smile.

"Hey, Zhang Xiao, you can't blame me, it was your sister Linlin who asked me to beat you."

After speaking, he led the two of them away, and at the same time waved his hand to the girls who drew eyeliner in the front row, as if to indicate that the task had been completed.

At this time, Zhang Xiao, who was in severe pain, came to his senses, he struggled to get up, and the swelling at the corners of his eyes made his eyes have to squint into a line.

Looking at Song Zhennan's back and the girls laughing in the front row, Zhang Xiao couldn't help but wonder.

"I'm sure I didn't provoke them, but why did they...".

Just when he was thinking hard, he saw Song Zhennan and the girl playing rock-paper-scissors!

Only this time, it was the girl who lost.

"I also choose to take a big adventure".

Zhang Xiao still had some buzzing ears, vaguely listening to what the girl said.

Immediately, Song Zhennan's eyes lit up in front of her, and she seemed to think of a good idea.

He pointed at Zhang Xiao again and said, "Zhao Linlin, then you go and confess to Zhang Xiao."

Zhao Linlin turned her head to look at Zhang Xiao, looking at his blue nose and swollen face, like a cat that had been stepped on by its tail, and screamed: "What? Let me confess to him? You pervert, I'm not going....! ”。

"Hahahahaha", the people around her, seeing her appearance, laughed.

This time Zhang Xiao understood, it turned out that he was beaten, and it was really a game for them...

"Are you alright? Would you like to go to the infirmary? ”。

A pleasant voice came into Zhang Xiao's ears.

But Zhang Xiao didn't raise his head, but said politely: "No need, thank you."

When Chen Yunuo heard this, he didn't say much, and turned to leave.

It seems that what she did just now was just out of the responsibility of the squad leader...

After a short period of drama, the classroom became bustling again, as if nothing had happened before.

This afternoon, Zhang Xiao was lying on the table, and he took several classes in a row, and even the teacher didn't notice his abnormality.

It wasn't until the school bell rang that the hard day finally passed.

Zhang Xiao walked downstairs, stepped onto a dilapidated bicycle, and walked home alone.

Half an hour later, he came to an old building.

The buildings here are at least forty or fifty years old, and the potholed roads have not been repaired for many years.

Zhang Xiao locked his bicycle to a tree and walked into the dark corridor alone.

The handrails of the old staircase had fallen off a few layers of paint, and the color was indiscernible, and there were cracks spreading on the steps, as if they were about to collapse at any moment.

Coming to the third floor, Zhang Xiao pushed open the door and walked in.

As usual, on the bamboo chair in the living room, sat an old man with gray hair and wrinkles on his face.

There was a teapot on the table next to the old man, wisps of steam, and a dilapidated radio at hand, full of squeaky squeaks playing something.

"Grandpa, I'm back".

"Well, being bullied by a classmate?" , The old man suddenly raised his eyes and asked.

"No, I accidentally fell when I came back,".

Zhang Xiao said, took off the school uniform with footprints, and began to clean up the house quickly, and put on the dishes and chopsticks...
