Chapter 4: Summer in the Sun (4)

Cheng Yanqing sat down with a plate, and the next second he found that someone was sitting opposite him.

His gaze went up to a pair of smiling eyes.

"Hello classmate Cheng." Mingxi waved his hand in greeting.

Cheng Yanqing glanced at Ming Xi and didn't understand why Ming Xi came here to sit, after all, he has always been a place that others avoid.

"Hello." responded coldly, and Cheng Yanqing lowered his head to eat.

As soon as he picked up a piece of carrot, he saw a few more pieces of meat on the plate, Cheng Yanqing paused with his chopsticks, raised his head, and looked at the person opposite.

Ming Xi tilted his head to the side with the chopsticks, and his eyebrows and eyes were crooked with a smile, "I don't like to eat green peppers, how about classmate Cheng help me share it?" ”

Cheng Yanqing frowned, obviously unwilling, and the breath around him was a little colder.

Mingxi: "I just helped classmate Cheng in the morning, and you should also help me." ”

Cheng Yanqing had a scene from the morning in his mind, tightened his fingers with chopsticks, lowered his head silently, picked up the meat on the plate and put it into his mouth.

After eating a few pieces, I suddenly felt strange, didn't I say that I don't like to eat green peppers?

Why was it meat that was given to him?

After the meal, Mingxi had carrots and green peppers left on his plate, and he didn't touch the amount at all.

Cheng Yanqing saw it, and his breath was short for a few seconds.

She......

"Why don't you leave?" Mingxi raised his hand and yawned, a little mist appeared in the corners of his eyes, and he looked lazy, "I'm going to take a nap..."

"I'll go put the dinner plate, and Song will go back to the classroom." Cheng Yanqing stretched out his hand to take the plate in Mingxi's hand, turned around and walked to the plate place.

Mingxi yawned again, and walked slowly towards the teaching building.

Afternoon classes were boring and hypnotic.

Mingxi fell asleep to the sound of the teacher's incessant lectures.

When I woke up, the classroom was empty, and only the resident students were left doing their homework.

Mingxi stretched, stood up and walked outside.

Passing by a girl's desk, her pen happened to fall to the floor.

Mingxi bent down to pick it up and handed it to the girl.

The girl took it cautiously with her neck and said 'thank you' intermittently.

The aftermath of the morning is thrown in.

The girl is a little afraid of Mingxi.

Mingxi bowed slightly, and the corners of his lips were faintly smiling.

The girl's head crashed directly, and she watched Mingxi's back disappear at the door blankly.

Good...... Look good.

In the corridor, the orange sunlight spreads on the floor, the cicadas chirp with the evening breeze, and even the air is a little sweet.

Mingxi walked slowly, and his body was plated with a layer of light and shadow.

There was a rush of footsteps around the corner, and a few seconds later, a boy rushed out.

When the boy saw Mingxi, his eyes lit up and he ran towards Mingxi.

"Classmate Song, classmate Cheng is locked in the utility room!"

"Qin Mobai pulled out the key, classmate Song, go over quickly!"

This boy Mingxi remembered that he was a follower by Qin Mobai's side.

In the morning, he helped bully Cheng Yanqing, but he came to report to her......

Could it be that he wants to change his ways?

【… He may have a conspiracy. 】

"Don't think of people so badly."

Ming Xi asked the boy gently: "Aren't you Qin Mobai's person?" How did you help Cheng Yanqing? ”

The boy scratched his head, a little embarrassed, and looked at Mingxi's eyes full of admiration, "Classmate Song, you are very powerful, and I think Qin Mobai has gone too far this time!" ”

Mingxi nodded, raised his feet and walked forward, "Where's the utility room?" ”

The boy actively led the way: "Here, I'll take classmate Song over!" ”

——

In the utility room, Cheng Yanqing sat between a pair of brooms and mops with his knees crossed, his hands clutching his pants, his knuckles faintly white.

For some reason, he is afraid of the dark.

No one knows but him.

As time passed, the house was completely darkened.

Cheng Yanqing opened his eyes, trying to see what was in front of him, but all he saw was darkness.

Childhood memories began to come back to his mind, raging......

"Slut! Just a little money? I'll beat you to death! ”

"Cry, cry! Labor and management are not dead, what are you crying for! ”

“……”

The scolding mixed with the smell of alcohol, mixed with the sound of fists falling on the flesh, is Cheng Yanqing's entire childhood memory.

Every night, when Cheng's father lost the bet, he would pull Cheng's mother out of bed and beat him.

Cheng's mother protected him and let her fists fall on her body one by one.

Cheng's father was tired and fell asleep beside him.

At this time, Cheng's mother would touch the young Cheng Yanqing, barely hold up a smile, and say, "Yanqing, you have to study hard, that's your only way out......"

This is the sentence that Cheng's mother said the most.

But in the end, she couldn't hold on and ran.

Cheng Yanqing doesn't blame her.

After Cheng's mother ran away, she was beaten every night and became Cheng Yanqing.

He will not do nothing like Cheng's mother, let Cheng's father fight, he desperately resists Cheng's father.

When he was young, most of them were beaten and bruised all over his body.

Later, when he grew up, Cheng's father gradually couldn't beat him, and he only dared to scold him.

Cheng Yanqing always remembered what Cheng's mother said.

Therefore, no matter how much Cheng's father scolded him and beat him, he did not give up studying.

In the dark, Cheng Yanqing looked ahead numbly, and his eyes seemed to be wrapped in a thick cloth, covering all the light.

The scolding in his head sounded over and over again, as if he had returned to that time.

There is no end to beating and scolding, and there is no end to the night......

"Bump!"

The door to the utility room was smashed open and hung crumblingly.

Mingxi threw away the chair and walked into the utility room.

In the darkness, Mingxi clearly saw the boy cowering in the corner.

Hugging his knees and hugging his shoulders slightly trembling, he looked like a young beast that would shatter at the touch of a fragility.

"Cheng Yanqing."

Mingxi walked over and grabbed Cheng Yanqing's hand on his knee.

"Get up, I'll take you out."

There was not the slightest movement from the people on the earth.

Mingxi squatted down, pressed his hand without moving away, and shouted a few more times tirelessly.

In the dark, Cheng Yanqing heard someone calling him.

One by one, from faint to intense, more and more clear.

"Cheng Yanqing!"

Cheng Yanqing slowly raised his head, a vague figure appeared in front of him, and the warmth in his hand wrapped his palm, spread along his arm to his heart, and finally warmed his entire chest.

At that moment, it was as if he saw light in the darkness.

——

"Wow! How are you, Mr. Cheng? You okay? ”

"Don't scare me! It's all my fault! If only I had called the boss sooner! ”

Mingxi: "Shut up. ”

The boy covered his mouth with his hand and kept blinking obediently.

Mingxi helped Cheng Yanqing, who was a head taller than him, and walked forward steadily.

The boy followed, surprised to be able to stuff an egg into his mouth.

is worthy of being the person who can beat Qin Mobai.

Stream batch!

He decided! In the future, he will follow classmate Song!

Song is his new boss!

Out of the teaching building, Ming Xi helped Cheng Yanqing to sit down on the outer steps.
