Chapter 16: The Rooftop

Even when they were in elementary school, Nian Nian and Huaibao still had to go to interest classes every weekend.

Not long ago, in the children's individual piano competition held across the country, Huaibao once again won the first place without much effort, so since then, Huaibao only needs to continue to prepare for the piano grade 6 exam at home.

This semester has reached the end of the semester again, and Xia Yecheng has been home late recently, often in the evening, he comes back from the park with his schoolbag.

When passing by the basketball court, you will still see some older children sweating there, watching them play, they will also have some itchy hands, simply put a schoolbag at the door, and will play for a while, most of those children are more mature, are in high school, and finally go home on the weekend, and come to play basketball.

Xia Yecheng always joined in naturally, and no one would see that he was only in the first year of junior high school this year, after all, he was fourteen years old, and his height was already a head higher than his peers, which made people admire, and his body was also straight and upright.

When Niannian came back from the dance studio, it was almost dark, and the dance studio had recently had competitions to participate, so in the past few weeks, she had stayed late to participate in the competition, and when she entered the community, she was looking at the textbook in her hand.

She seemed to have trouble remembering what her homework was tomorrow.

An opportunity to pick up the ball, Xia Yecheng took a slight breath and trotted to chase the ball, and when he looked up, he saw Nian Nian, who was wearing a small skirt and smiling, standing outside the iron net of the court.

It may be that when walking through the court, Nian Nian always habitually looked inside, but he didn't expect to really see Xia Yecheng who was playing in a white shirt.

"My sister is here, I won't fight, you can play."

"Okay, let's move on."

Seeing Nian Nian, he estimated that the time was almost up, and his grandmother was still waiting for him to go back to eat at home, so that's the end of today.

Xia Yecheng threw the ball to the boys who were still about to continue playing, turned around and picked up the schoolbag that had been placed at the door earlier, and walked out of the court.

It's summer, and it's very hot when you move, not to mention that you are still exercising vigorously on the court, looking at the sweat that keeps dripping down Xia Yecheng's body, Nian Nian looks uncomfortable for her brother.

"Give you the paper."

She took out a pack of tissues with the cartoon characters from her dancing backpack and handed it to him. It was bought for her by her mother, and she was told to bring a spare bag with her every time she went out.

Looking at Nian Nian's plain little face, the cheeks were still slightly red, her eyes were bright and good-looking, her long eyelashes were also fluttering, and her thin and long legs were also good seedlings for dancing, Xia Yecheng came back to her senses and understood that Nian Nian was about to become a big girl.

He took the tissue that seemed out of place and pulled one out. The rest was handed back.

"Did you just come back from dance practice?"

He simply spread out the paper, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and turned around to go to the drink machine next to him. Press down on a can of Coke.

"yes, I'm so tired that I feel like my legs are about to die. Milk tea, thank you, hehe. ”

Xia Yecheng paused, but still pressed milk tea for her.

"Hey, you're welcome, I haven't even asked you yet."

He unscrewed the cap of the bottle of Assam milk tea a little before handing it to her.

Nian Nian looked at him with a smiling little face like a flower, took the milk tea in his hand, opened the lid and poured it into his mouth.

Quickly swallow the mellow milk tea.

"Isn't that also provincial, you ask? Isn't it good to save you effort? ”

The action of raising her head made Nian Nian's long hair float to her face, and Xia Yecheng naturally pulled down the naughty hair.

"One day less to find a reason, is the homework done?"

"Not yet, I've almost forgotten what my homework is, I'll ask Huai Bao later."

“……”

The two chatted with each other, and soon walked to the door of the residents of Villa No. 3, that is, the door of Xia Yecheng's house.

"Goodbye, brother."

Nian Nian waved his hand to him, and walked over to open not the door of his own house, but the door of Huaibao's house, and his movements naturally seemed to be used to it.

"Nian Nian."

Before Nian Nian entered the door, Xia Yecheng stood under the street lamp and stopped her, he looked at her from above, but the light hit the cherry hairpin on Nian Nian's head, and he was also looking at the sparkling hairpin.

And Niannian couldn't see his appearance clearly, she only knew that her brother was extremely good-looking and tall, and every time she was bumped into by a classmate on the road, as soon as she said that this was her brother, she had more face.

"What's wrong?"

What more would you like for your next birthday?

"Nothing...... If you have any questions you don't know, you can ask me. ”

"Really?"

Xia Yecheng walked over, touched her head, and then nodded seriously.

"Yes, let's go inside."

After saying goodbye to his brother again, Nian Nian entered the gate of Huai Bao's house, Xia Yecheng was still standing outside, he actually wanted to turn around and go home, but just when he wanted to turn around, Nian Nian's voice came from the yard again.

"Yi Huai, come out and be beaten."

The voice became smaller and smaller, probably because Nian Nian had already entered, he stood there, scratched his forehead, patted the back of his head, shook his head helplessly, and did a series of unbelievable movements before turning around and entering his own door.

On the day of the final exam of all the primary school students attached to the experiment, Xuan Xuan asked Huaibao and Niannian to wait at school for a while after the afternoon exam Xu Yinchuan, and went home with him for dinner, and Niannian went to the dance studio after the exam, so after the exam, only Huaibao was waiting for Xu Yinchuan below.

At noon, he also ran into Xu Yinchuan, and Xu Yinchuan also packed tickets with him, saying that he would not let Huaibao wait too long.

As a result, half an hour has passed, the second-grade students are almost gone, Xu Yinchuan has not come down yet, fortunately, Huaibao has seen the class leader of the second year class once, so when he saw him again, Huaibao recognized it at a glance, so he simply asked him.

"May I ask if Xu Yinchuan is still in the classroom?"

The small squad leader pushed his heavy glasses and shook his head.

"He seems to have left in a hurry as soon as he finished the exam."

"Okay, thanks."

"You're welcome."

Huaibao was very puzzled, it stands to reason that it is impossible for Xu Yinchuan to leave without saying hello, and it is impossible not to be bumped into by himself when he goes out from the school gate, so there is only one possibility, Xu Yinchuan is still in school.

With his own guess, Huai Bao decided to go up to him again, and if he really couldn't find it, he would also go home.

He first went to the first-grade classroom, walked through the corridor on the first floor and didn't see anyone, and then went to the side of the corridor bridge on each floor, and when he walked across the bridge, a torn and tattered book suddenly fell from downstairs. The notebook had fallen not too far in front of him.

Huai Bao didn't want to see, walked a few steps, crossed the book, and suddenly thought of something, a little hesitant to raise his head and take a look, from the direction of the book dropped, probably from the position of the sixth floor rooftop, he felt a bad premonition, so he turned around and picked up the book on the ground.

Sure enough, it was Xu Yinchuan's.

It stands to reason that Xu Yinchuan will not go to the rooftop at this time, and the sixth floor happens to be the classroom of the senior grades, and the rooftop is connected, so there is only one possibility.

I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen to him again.

I really don't want to care...

But if that person is not his cousin.

On the rooftop, Xu Yinchuan was forced into a corner, and in front of him stood three senior students, all of whom were a head taller than Xu Yinchuan, one of whom was holding Xu Yinchuan's Nike school bag in his hand, and the other was holding some torn homework books and textbooks in his hand.

"Hurry up and get the money out, we don't have time to spend it with you."

The person who spoke stepped forward and grabbed Xu Yinchuan's collar.

"I didn't bring it."

He didn't lie to them, he really didn't bring it today, in normal times, he would have given it a long time ago, these people specifically asked for money from junior students not once or twice, Xu Yinchuan is their long-term meal ticket, because his family has money, so parents give a lot of pocket money, and because they have a delicate face, these primary school students feel uncomfortable when they see it, so they want to teach Xu Yinchuan a lesson.

And often when he was asked for money, Xu Yinchuan also gave it directly, he didn't want to waste his time because of these things, not to mention that Huaibao was still waiting below today, but he was in too much hurry today and really didn't bring it, and he wanted to leave early after the exam, but he didn't expect to be bumped into by them, so he pulled him to the rooftop, and tore up his textbooks and homework books.

"Well, not really."

Another student, who was looking for the bag, continued to look through the bag and nodded.

"How is it possible, why is it not today. If you don't take it out, believe it or not, I'll beat you. ”

"I said I didn't bring it, I didn't bring it."

Xu Yinchuan is also very rigid, these people are so insatiable, he has nothing to be afraid of.

"Teacher, the door to the rooftop doesn't seem to be closed."

Just when the fist of the student who grabbed Xu Yinchuan's collar was about to fall on Xu Yinchuan's face, there was a voice outside, and the student who was about to hit someone had not yet reacted, the two people around him had already run away, and he also looked at the left and right sides in a little panic, and in a hurry, he also quickly let go of Xu Yinchuan and ran towards the door on the other side.

He is the smarter of the three of them, think about it carefully, the teacher on the sixth floor is revising the paper in the office at this time, and it is very early to lock the door, but the two people around him have run away, and he can't help but be afraid in his heart with a little thought, so he simply ran away.

Watching them leave, Xu Yinchuan breathed a sigh of relief, slowly squatted down to pick up his schoolbag, and put the scattered homework books into his schoolbag.

No hurry, no delay.

"Do you want me to tell your mother?"

Huai Bao stood at the door, handing him the homework book that had just been thrown down.

"What's there to say? It's not a shame to be known by others. ”

"But they've gone so far. And what's the shame of that, isn't the right thing to do to be solved by the adults? ”

Xu Yinchuan took the homework book in Yi Huai's hand and finally put it in his schoolbag, his eyes began to redden, but he didn't cry.

"Don't say it, don't say it to anyone, don't tell others, and Shang Nian can't either."

Huai Bao thought for a while, and looking at Xu Yinchuan's unusually serious expression, he had no choice but to agree to him.

He really didn't say anything, that day they went downstairs from the rooftop and took the bus back home, at that time Xu Yinchuan had recovered the annoying mode on the bus, and kept making noise in Huaibao's ears, but it couldn't be regarded as without a little impact, after all, Xu Yinchuan also half-jokingly said whether to learn taekwondo.

Huai Bao refused him without even thinking about it, not to mention that he had piano lessons and guitar lessons every week, and his big belly was not suitable for that sport.

"I'm kidding, but I can do it myself."

“……”

It wasn't until later that the three elementary school students stabbed the person in the third year of junior high school because they failed to ask for money in the lower grades, and they entered the bureau within a few days, and the family of the person who was stabbed also had money, so his parents found the best lawyer and let the three of them stay for more than ten years.

The good youth was ruined by himself.

At that time, Huai Bao knew why the little Xu Yinchuan had been bullied like that and didn't tell the adults or the teacher, just like no one else, they asked him for money, and he still gave it.

"I'm spending money to teach them how to be human beings, since their parents only give birth to children, then my father will spend money to let them enjoy their lives."

“……”

Huaibao has a black line, fortunately he has a mother and a father, and he has never asked Xu Yinchuan for money......
