In the direction of the hotel, Uncle Liu walked for a while before turning around. Looking at the two youths who were riding a bicycle, he took out his mobile phone and called a certain old man. “…Young Master is fine, he has come out of the hospital.”
After the other person said something on the phone, Uncle Liu answered “yes” and hung up the phone.
Zhu Tong and Shao Ming walked into the teaching building, just in time for the bell for the morning self-study. The students of each class rushed out of the cafeteria like starved beasts. Its magnitude was enough to make Young Master Zhu experience a simulated earthquake.
Along the way, they meet many of their “acquaintances”.
“You’re back?”
“Are you okay?”
“What happened to you last night?”
With an unusually warm greeting, Zhu Tong nodded in response, but he was guarded by Shao Ming by the fence as they walked inside. It made it impossible for other people to move closer to him.
If he knew he would be surrounded like this, he would’ve gone here later.
The story that he was taken to the hospital by Shao Ming last night was spread in the school by some means. Many people secretly stared at them.
In a relatively active students-only group, there was no idle time in the group during breakfast and dinner.
[I heard that Zhu Tong was admitted to the hospital again last night.]
[I saw with my own eyes that it was Shao Ming who took him there. He even carried Zhu Tong princess-style!]
[Study God’s Boyfriend Power to the MAX! I must marry a man like him in the future!]
[Shouldn’t you be concerned about why Zhu Tong went to the hospital?]
[Didn’t the people in Class 3 say it was a stomachache? It is said that the pain is quite severe, to the point he couldn’t walk.]
[Zhu Tong’s body is really riddled with illnesses.]
[He’s really miserable..]
In the 3rd Year Class 7, Zhou Sui sent a message to Qin Junhong while watching the discussion about Zhu Tong in the students-only group.
<Zhou Sui>: Your younger brother is truly a real sick beauty, he has entered the hospital again. As his older brother, wouldn’t you say something? I can greet him in your stead if it’s not convenient for you.
In other words: ask for money.
He got a reply fairly quickly.
<Qin Junhong>: Do the things I told you well, and you will get more money.
<Zhou Sui>: This is not easy to handle, Young Master Qin. Your brother’s personality is completely different from what you said. After I mentioned your name, he didn’t buy it at all. He had a cold face and a fierce expression. Are you two really related and have a good relationship?
Qin Junhong was processing a document that Zhu Shoushan handed over to him. He frowned when he saw the new message on his phone.
‘Zhu Tong didn’t believe him? How come?’
They ate and lived together in the same villa for so many years, and Zhu Tong’s attitude towards him has always been positive and polite.
He lived in the hospital all year round, and every time Qin Junhong visited him, Zhu Tong had always had a good attitude towards him. When he was critically ill, he gave a card with 10 million inside for him to give to Zhu Xin, which showed that Zhu Tong trusted him very much.
If it wasn’t for Zhu Shoushan’s last words, he didn’t even plan to ask for the card back.
When he heard his name, his face became cold, and he was fierce?
‘How is this possible?’
Qin Junhong didn’t believe it at all. Maybe it was just an excuse by Zhou Sui. He wanted more money.
But he didn’t expose Zhou Sui for now. Instead, he took the phone to reply.
<Qin Junhong>: Our relationship is really good. He trusts me very much. He must be cruel to you because you are too reckless. The person he doesn’t trust is you. What you have to do is to gain his trust. What should you do? Do you need me to teach you?
Zhou Sui in the classroom sneered when he received his reply. He doubted that their relationship was as good as Qin Junhong believed.
Did what Qin Junhong wanted was to gain his trust then destroy him? him?
<Zhou Sui>: The relationship between your pair of brothers in a wealthy family is really “extraordinary”.
Unabashed sarcasm.
Qin Junhong saw this reply, and his face changed – his eyes darkened.
<Qin Junhong>: Don’t worry about the superficial things. When things are done, someone will naturally pay the debts owed by your family. You can do whatever you want to gain Zhu Tong’s trust.
Zhou Sui: “…”
He looked at the last sentence Qin Junhong sent, and narrowed his eyes with interest.
‘Whatever I want? That’s a good suggestion.’
He closed WeChat and opened the previous students-only group. After browsing through it for a while, he got up and left the classroom.
In the 2nd Year teaching building, after Zhu Tong returned to the classroom, he went to the office again.
Shi Wenshu asked about his condition.
Zhu Tong didn’t mention his stomach bleeding, just said it was a common stomach problem.
Seeing that he was in good spirits, Shi Wenshu didn’t ask any more questions. He let him go back to the classroom after a few words of concern.
As soon as he returned to his seat, Zhu Tong began to practice his mock questions again.
The front-seat class monitor and others hadn’t come back from breakfast. Luo Suo unceremoniously occupied the class monitor’s seat and looked at the two learning machines deskmates complicatedly.
Shao Ming looked up at him and said, “If you have something to say, just say it. It’s okay if it’s just bullshit.”
Luo Suo replied, “I have nothing to say to you.”
Shao Ming: “…”
Shao Ming tilted his head, just in time for Zhu Tong to look this way.
Luo Suo said suddenly, “Stomach bleeding! How can it happen?”
It was hard for him to imagine that a meal in the school cafeteria could cause stomach bleeding!
Zhu Tong: “…”
He also wanted to know how this happened.
Luo Suo sighed again. “I’m not blaming you, but why didn’t you tell me earlier that you can’t eat in the cafeteria? You got stomach bleeding just because you accompanied me to have a meal, isn’t it my fault?”
Zhu Tong: “…Sorry.”
Luo Suo said in shock. “I caused your stomach to bleed? And you still apologize to me?”
–Shouldn’t it be Luo Suo who apologized to him instead?
Shao Ming scolded him. “You’re putting gold on your face1thinking too highly of oneself, who said he went to the cafeteria for you?”
Luo Suo said loudly, “Not for you either!”
Zhu Tong: “…”
They’re so stupid it made his head ache.
Shao Ming glanced at Zhu Tong, then looked at Luo Suo, and said with a smile, “What are you doing here? If you don’t have something to say, go away.”
Luo Suo froze for a moment, deflated. “I’m here to apologize.”
Although he didn’t do it on purpose, it was indeed his suggestion to go to the cafeteria to eat. But because he seldom apologized to others, he felt a little awkward and didn’t know how to say it.
He was still in high spirits just now, but suddenly his head drooped again.
Zhu Tong had never dealt with such a situation, so he waved his hand and said, “I’m fine, you don’t need to…”
“Okay, I’ve accepted your apology for my roommate, you can get out.”
Zhu Tong: “…”
Luo Suo: “…”
Then Luo Suo really got out, leaving a sentence “Young people should cherish their bodies” before leaving, in the tone of a wise sage.
Zhu Tong was dumbfounded by him, but he somehow found it funny.
The class bell rang quickly. In the morning, their class had two hours of Math. Thinking that the monthly exam was approaching, the math teacher simply used all the time for a quiz. All the questions were more complicated and difficult than usual.
Zhu Tong only managed to solve five questions during two hours.
He was a little distressed.
“Can’t do it?” After class, seeing that he was still staring at a few questions of the math quiz, Shao Ming came over and asked.
Zhu Tong nodded. “Yes.”
Shao Ming smiled and said, “Write down what you can’t do, and I’ll teach you when we go back in the evening.”
The time between classes was too short to explain clearly.
Hearing him mention “evening” so naturally, Zhu Tong was stunned for a moment, then hesitantly asked, “You really want me to live with you?”
Shao Ming asked back, “You don’t want to?”
Zhu Tong: “…No.”
“Does that mean you don’t want to study?”
Zhu Tong shook his head.
Shao Ming thought for a while. “Do you like that homestay?”
Zhu Tong nodded again. “I like it.”
Shao Ming hammered the final nail of the coffin. “Then, that’s it.”
Zhu Tong: “…”
He wanted to say something, but someone suddenly shouted at the door of the classroom: “Zhu Tong, someone is looking for you!”
Zhu Tong looked at the door and saw no one. But still, he said to Shao Ming, “I’ll go out.”
Out of the classroom door, he found a girl waiting outside with a plastic bag in her hand.
When the girl saw him come out, she smiled and handed him the plastic bag, “Someone asked me to give it to you.”
“…”
Zhu Tong looked down, the packaging in the plastic bag looked a little familiar. These were some of the more common stomach medicines.
Zhu Tong frowned slightly and asked her, “Who asked you to send it?”
The girl only smiled mysteriously. “It’s from a 3rd Year senior… Oh, he left a card inside.”
The girl flipped through the plastic bag, took out a card and handed it to him. Zhu Tong raised his hand to take it, and his face suddenly sank.
[Take good care of yourself.]
Signed: Zhou Sui.
In the classroom, Shao Ming watched his deskmate walk out of the classroom calmly, and then walked back with a black face, carrying a plastic bag in his hand.
When he walked back to his seat, he was about to speak when he heard his deskmate say, “Did you know any 3rd Year senior?”
Shao Ming: “…”
There seemed to be murder in his tone.
He smiled and innocently asked, “Yes, what’s wrong?”
After another class was over, someone called Zhou Sui out of the back door of the classroom. Zhou Sui walked out of the classroom as if expecting that someone would come to him.
A boy asked him as he handed him a plastic bag. “You gave these medicines to Zhu Tong?”
Zhou Sui looked at the plastic bag in his hand and smiled. “Yeah, didn’t he have a stomach ache last night? I care about him…”
Before he finished speaking, the boy with the plastic bag suddenly walked into their classroom, threw the plastic bag into the trash can, and then turned around to say: “He asked me to bring the medicine back and throw it in the trash can, in front of you. Just so let you know.”
Zhou Sui: “…”
