nChapter 57: The Wind Blowing Over the Treetop 59 Points
nJing Xun followed Shen Yijin down the stairs and walked to the first floor.
nThe manager followed suit step by step and couldn’t help touching the cold sweat on his forehead.
n…Looking at the clothes and appearance of these two people, he seemed to have disturbed President Shen’s good times just now!
n…Gosh, what had he done? !
nHe should have let people control Tang Shao ye first, and look for President Shen when he finished his business…
nThe manager was frightened by his own brain hole that he stumbled. In the lead, Shen Yijin and Jing Xun had already arrived at the first floor.
nThe downtown nightclub had a lot of guests, so they paid a lot of attention to security and had strengthened it again and again.
nThis time, Tang Li made a scene and was taken away by the security guards and placed in a small room. He didn’t cause any disturbance, so it was not a major incident.
nBut because this was a friend brought by President Shen himself, he still needed to let him know. Afterward, the manager braced himself and knocked on the door.
nShen Yijin got downstairs, pushed open the door of the small private room, and saw Tang Li sitting motionless on the ground, looking disheveled, his hands were also injured.
nXiao Tang squatted beside his brother, wiping the blood from the back of his hand with a tissue.
nShen Yijin’s expression sank. He asked Tang Li: “What’s going on? Senior, you got into a fight with someone?”
nTang Li, who was sitting there in a daze, didn’t speak. Xiao Tang also bowed his head with a bewildered expression on his face.
nTherefore, the manager standing at the side had to explain: “No, no one has a fight with Tang shao ye.“
nAre you kidding? President Shen had asked him to look after Tang shao ye before he went upstairs. If he got beaten under his eyes, then he really didn’t need to work here anymore.
nThe manager said: “The injury on his hand… was caused by Tang shao ye himself. He was smashing the wall.”
nShen Yijin: “…..”
n“You go out first.” He said, sending all unrelated people outside the door. Shen Yijin squatted down in front of Tang Li.
n“What happened?”
nTang Li with a hollow expression didn’t seem to hear it, or didn’t want to make a sound at all.
nSo Xiao Tang can only answer: “It seems to be….brother Jin.”
nIn fact, Xiao Tang didn’t know what happened.
nJust now, he and his brother were playing on the dance floor below. It was fun at first, but somehow, his brother’s complexion suddenly changed, then he rushed in a certain direction.
nThere were many people on the dance floor, and Xiao Tang’s reaction was half a beat slow. When he pushed aside the crowd to catch up with him, his brother had already disappeared.
nAfter searching for a long time, he couldn’t find him. It wasn’t until he overheard someone say there was a fight going on that he rushed over to see if he could find his brother.
nBut when he arrived, he didn’t see any fight, he only saw his brother smashing the wall with his fist.
nFortunately, Xiao Tang and other security guards finally managed to control his brother.
nWhen he was under control, his brother didn’t say anything, he only called……brother Zheheng’s name.
nLater, they were placed here alone. His brother calmed down and sober up. He just began sitting in a daze without saying a word.
n“Jin Zheheng?” Shen Yijin repeated the name.
nWhen Tang Li heard that name, he finally had a reaction.
nThe out-of-focus pupils gathered again. After a while, Tang Li saw Shen Yijin and Jing Xun who were looking at him and were dressed differently: “Why are you guys… this is still a bar, so thrilling?”
nJing Xun standing in the distance: “…?”
nAfter saying that, as if realizing that he was actually sitting on the ground, Tang Li tried to get up.
nAfter being helped to sit on the sofa again, he looked at the injury on his hand and said, “it’s nothing ah.”
nHe comforted Xiao Tang: “Don’t worry, your brother is fine.”
nXiao Tang was very frightened just now. Seeing his brother sober up, he put away his worried face, and said fiercely, “What’s the matter? You’ve never been like this before! And did you really see Brother Zheheng? Didn’t he go on vacation?”
n“No.” Tang Li rubbed his temple with one hand, and covered his face roughly, “Did I say I saw him?”
nXiao Tang: “……”
nTang Li: “That should be a mistake, I don’t remember.”
n“……”
nTang Li wasn’t completely sober yet, and it was inconvenient to continue staying in the bar. He said he didn’t want to play anymore, so he got up to leave, but was stopped by Shen Yijin.
n“Should I arrange a room for you?”
n“No.” Tang Li said.
nHe didn’t pat Shen Yijin’s shoulder like he usually did with his brother. He just said: “You guys go on and have fun. I’ll go back first.”
nHe hurt his hand and drank too much, he probably couldn’t go home looking like this. But Tang Li was not without any foothold in Dragon City, so Shen Yijin didn’t worry about him.
nHe wanted to leave, so he had a car prepared to take them back.
nSaying goodbye to the Tang brothers temporarily, and walking them all the way to the car, the rain outside had stopped unexpectedly.
nThe streets washed by the rainstorm had a faint humid atmosphere. The acacia leaves on both sides of the road had been knocked down a lot. In addition to the humid water vapor, there was also a faint fragrance of grass and trees in the air.
nThe remaining raindrops on the roof fell steadily, making the night a lot cooler.
nUnlike the forced cooling of the air conditioner in the bar, the coolness of the breeze blowing outside couldn’t be replaced by any artificial cold air blast.
nJing Xun couldn’t help taking a deep breath of fresh air.
nShen Yijin took his hand and said, “Shall we go home too?”
n“En.” Jing Xun said, “Go back home.”
nThe two did not get into the car immediately. Instead, they held hands and walked on the pavement of the asphalt road.
nThe gentle breeze came, the wind passed through the treetops, and the acacia trees on both sides of the road were rustling. The neon street lights exuded a warm glow, pulling the shadows of the two people on the ground.
n.
nThe people around Shen Bohan unanimously agreed that tonight was really lively.
nWhen Lin Li posted those snapshots on group chat, the whole group began to explode.
nHe did not post the photos in the group where everyone usually played together, but in a small group created separately.
nThis small group contained only core figures with only five or six people. The people in this group usually hang out with him and Shen Bohan, excluding those little followers and XX celebrities around them. Everyone in this small group were real second and third generations of real wealthy families.
nThese people had a common characteristic, that is, they all knew Shen Yijin.
nThey also knew the rules, and knew how to eat the melons1gossip of the Shen family Da shao ye.
nAfter all, Shen Yijin was different from them.
nThey were all dependent on their families for their livelihoods, but Shen Yijin had already grasped 80% of the Shen family’s industry.
nThey were still muddling through life, none of them had any capability. However, the several companies founded by Shen Yijin were already in their infancy and were about to become listed companies.
nFurthermore, the patriarchs and the clan elders of their respective families were trying to get on good terms with Shen Yijin.
nTherefore, If Shen Yijin wanted to keep a low profile, no one of the rich second and third generations who knew him dared to spread his news outside. Shen Yijin didn’t play with them, and none of them would actively provoke him.
nThis seemed to have become an unwritten rule in their circle.
nShen Yijin seldom participated in private gatherings of their younger generation, and never came out to play. Those who could meet and talk about business with him were the adults in their family. Owing to that fact, many second and third generations subconsciously classified the Shen family’s Da shao ye as the same generation of their own fathers and grandfathers.
nAlthough many of them were actually older than Shen Yijin.
nAt present, they finally got to eat Shen Yijin’s melon…. Although the small group had exploded, everyone still abided by the old rule, and no one dared to publicize the news.
nThis was why Lin Li only posted photos here.
nAs for the reason why he must post it, because this matter was too explosive! He couldn’t help it!
n……
nThe group was full of melon eating remarks, most importantly, there were a lot of melons.
nF*ck, so Tang Li is also back? I haven’t seen him for a few years.
nActing so crazy when he returned home? I heard that he cut off economic relations with his family a few years ago, and now he is doing design work abroad by himself…could it be that he was driven crazy by poverty?
nWhat an uncultured swine. It’s not just a simple design work. He is a first-class architect! He has won international award… There are a lot of people kneeling to give him money, okay?
nLin Li: F*ck, f*ck, f*ck, look at what I found! Sure enough, it’s right that I didn’t leave early! @Er Shao
nDuring the heated discussion in the group, Lin Li posted a few more photos.
nThey were still blurry snapshots, and the background was still inside the bar.
nBut with careful observation, they could recognize Shen Yijin and Yan Jingxun, as well as the two brothers of the Tang family, all four of whom were walking toward the door in unison, looking like they were about to leave.
nWhat’s wrong with this? It’s normal for Shen Yijin to know Tang Li…
nI didn’t see any wow factor either…Are they leaving now? F*ck, I still want to go to the scene and witness the excitement with my own eyes!
nLin Li: No, your eyes… It’s about time you go to the ophthalmology department for a check up. Look at Yan Jingxun’s clothes ah! And look at the first wave of photos I posted above, the clothes are different! That is obviously not his own clothes!
n! ! !
nLin Li: And Shen Yijin’s coat was also missing, what does this imply?
n……
nBy the way, is it really okay for us to discuss this in front of Er Shao…
nEr Shao is still sick, how can he read WeChat? Besides, Er Shao has already dumped Yan Jingxun…
nThat’s to say, it’s so weird ah. I’ve never heard that person has any friends… Nie Yandong, you know, a while ago, I heard he was crazy enough to send someone to his bed. As a result, he didn’t succeed and almost offended him.
n? True or false, why is it offensive to send a person?
nIt’s true. President Nie told me personally, that person has a bad temper!
n……
nLin Li:…Things are getting more explosive. I just went to ask the manager here. He said Yan Jingxun did stay in the room with Da shao ye for a while. He also left behind his suit and tie. And you know what, there are hickeys on his neck! Many, many hickeys!
n…Hickey? Yan Jingxun is quite skillful ah.
nSo is this for real? Then how did they get together…
nActually speaking with conscience, Yan Jingxun is really good-looking… Maybe there is some good quality about him that we don’t know.
nMainly because our Er Shao’s vision is above average, but not at that level… Damn, If I knew I would have gone for it.
nForget it. Did you forget how crazy Yan Jingxun loved Er Shao a while ago? He won’t fall for someone like you.
n@Er Shao, quickly wake up, the Yan Jingxun who loves you so much is already in someone else’s bed!
n……
nThe reason why Lin Li sent those photos was because he wanted to avenge Shen Bohan’s usual arrogance.
nAlthough their small group was Er Shao’s followers, Shen Bohan sometimes didn’t even give him a minimum of respect in front of others… Which one of them wasn’t a spoiled young master of their own family? Even if the Lin family couldn’t compare to the Shen family, even if he did get some benefits by sticking around Shen Bohan, but who could stand it for a long time.
nHe deliberately sent the photos just to anger Er Shao.
nAlthough Er Shao once disliked Yan Jingxun…..his ex-boyfriend turned around and fell in love with his elder brother, and that man was Shen Yijin!
nThat’s very shocking!
nHe really wanted to know what Er Shao looked like right now, will he regret it…
nBut Lin Li still knew how far to go and when to stop.
nSeeing that some of the comments in the group began to be radical, he quickly typed:
nLin Li: Aiya, you guys are too narrow-minded. How can Er Shao care about that…With Yan Jingxun’s behavior, even if he follows Da shao ye, he won’t last long. Let’s just keep eating melons by ourselves and let Er Shao rest.
n……
nEr Shao was of course awake at the moment.
nThere were no lights in the private hospital’s premium ward.
nShen Bohan, who picked up the phone again, withstood the renewed high fever. He had been peering at the screen with his sore and sometimes tearful eyes.
nHe watched the chat above stubbornly, never letting go of each one.
nHe knew what Lin Li’s small mind was thinking by deliberately posting the photos in the group, but he didn’t want to care about him at the moment.
nWhat they said was correct.
nYan Jingxun was good-looking.
nYan Jingxun also had a lot of good points.
nIt’s just him. It’s him, Shen Bohan, who didn’t know how to cherish him.
nSo he had to clearly read every ridicule and insinuating words, because these people used to mock Yan Jingxun in such a sarcastic manner.
nThis was even less than what Yan Jingxun had suffered.
nThat’s why he had to see it.
nThis was what he should endure.
n.
n“Ah choo!” After strolling on the sidewalk for about twenty minutes, Jing Xun suddenly sneezed.
nShen Yijin stopped immediately and turned around to look at him: “What? Does Xiao Xun feel cold?”
n“No.” Jing Xun rubbed his nose, then touched his inexplicably hot ears… He always felt that someone was talking about him behind his back?
nShen Yijin asked again, “Are you tired then? If you’re tired, we’ll get in the car.”
nThe driver had been following them and stopped not far away.
nJing Xun said that he wasn’t tired.
nIt was still early, and it wasn’t bad to take a walk.
nMost importantly, after all the trouble, sir finally stopped rejecting the rain. He guessed that Shen Yijin never walked like this in the night after the rain…
nHe felt that Shen Yijin was also in a good mood, so Jing Xun wasn’t willing to go back like this.
n“Let’s keep walking, sir,” he said.
n“Ok.”
nShen Yijin naturally had no objection.
nThe two continued to walk forward. A feeling of verdant youthful years2青蔥歲月 A period between 16-20 year old. stirred up in Jing Xun’s heart, they were like two teenagers walking side by side.
nNot to mention Shen Yijin, even Jing Xun, who had been at school all year round, had never experienced this feeling because of his illness.
nBreathing the fresh air, Jing Xun couldn’t help shaking their intertwined hands and held it high.
nHis body swaggered, sometimes bouncing around, just like a child.
nShen Yijin saw his happiness, and couldn’t help feeling happy as well.
nHe wouldn’t be able to jump along with him, but the whole time he interlocked his fingers with the young man, he occasionally raised his arms high to cooperate, and followed the young man’s pace wholeheartedly.
nThe uncle and aunt who had been following behind them while walking their dog couldn’t understand… Are young people nowadays so jubilant and childish?
nWhat a waste for them to grow so tall.
nThen they walked for a while, and the brand-new shiny Rolls Royce, which had been driving slowly from behind, unknowingly pulled the brake and stopped on the side of the road. The two young men got into the car one after another.
nThe youth who got in the car first had gentle and warm eyes, like a piece of jade. He had a beautiful face with a reserved countenance. He was politely saying thank you to the driver who helped him open the door without showing any childishness just now.
nAs for the young man who got in the car later, he first raised his hand to protect the head of the youth, then his slender body turned slightly and looked back before boarding the car.
nLooking back, the tall young man had a cold expression and deep eyebrows. His appearance was calm, solemn and unwavering, which also didn’t match childish behavior just now.
nUncle and Aunt: “…..”
nYoung people these days….had such a strong personality.
n.
nThe next day.
nBefore going to work, Jing Xun suddenly received a call from his roommate.
nTang Jingyuan was concerned and asked: “Xun Xun, have you…checked your grades? Why did you fail the exam?”
nJing Xun: “?”
nSince he started taking exams in primary school, Jing Xun rarely missed the perfect score, but he never thought he would fail.
nAfter thanking Tang Jingyuan for reminding him, he used his mobile phone to access the school website.
nThe results of all the students could be found on the school’s public website, so Jing Xun went online to check…..
nSure enough, he failed one exam and scored 59 points.
n……?
nHe had an impression of this exam. The exam questions were not difficult. He answered very smoothly. It was possible to not score full marks, but failing was very unlikely.
nMoreover, Jing Xun searched through his memories again, and there was no wrong answer or forgetting to write name on the test paper..
nSo how come?
nJing Xun thought about it again. The teacher of this course was typically strict and demanding high attendance rates.
nBut the problem was that he had not skipped class.
nPreviously, the original owner had taken a few days off because of his part-time job, and some points might be deducted.
nBut it wasn’t right to get 59 points…..
nJing Xun was stunned, and Shen Yijin, who learned of the situation, said, “Would you like to call this teacher and ask?”
nJing Xun thought it was a good idea.
nThe original owner used to be the president of the student council, and he had the phone numbers of the teachers in the department.
nIt didn’t take much effort to turn over the teacher’s phone number. Jing Xun looked at the time and made sure that it was appropriate before calling. As a result, the reply he got was: “Oh, I have an impression of your test paper.”
nThe other party said: “There is no process for each big question, on the contrary, the results are all correct. Student Yan, are you sure you answered the questions by yourself?”
nJing Xun: “……”
nJing Xun remembered that when he was taking this exam, the project he took part in with Professor Huo happened to have a meeting in half an hour.
nAlthough he reported to Professor Huo in advance before joining the group, his final exams in those two weeks might delay some of the project time. But it was a very important group meeting. Jing Xun didn’t want to delay other group members’ time because of himself, nor did he want to be late or absent.
nSo in order to rush to the meeting, he used his brain to calculate all the questions directly.
nNot only did he not write the process for big questions, he also didn’t use draft paper for the proceeding multiple choice and fill-in-the-blank questions…
nIs that the reason he got the first failing grade in his life?
nHowever, he clearly remembered that, on the test paper and answer sheet, there was no annotation that he must write the calculation process….
nIn the past, Jing Xun’s academic route was different from others. Especially after entering the genius class at the age of fifteen, he would rarely be arranged to take a formal exam.
nBut in spite of this, he had done things like writing answers directly many times.
nBasically, he wouldn’t write the process unless it was specifically indicated that he must do so on the test paper.
nThere were times when he was in a hurry like during exams, and sometimes he felt that certain steps didn’t have to be written at all, so he thought of the result in one step.
n……
nBut Jing Xun could also understand the teacher’s thoughts. He wouldn’t panic. At worst, he would take a make-up test next semester.
nHe just felt that the failure itself was quite intriguing… It can be counted as a consistent experience.
nJing Xun said helplessly: “I answered the question myself, teacher, I can guarantee that.”
n“You still want to lie to me, don’t think I don’t know what’s going on. Yan Jingxun, you are the first to submit the paper.”
nJing Xun: “……”
n“Although the questions this time are not difficult, you have no process and no calculations for the last two big questions, so how can you answer them directly?” The teacher on the other end continued: “This time I gave you 59 points to give you some face. Don’t say anything. Come and take a make-up exam next semester. “
n“……”
nFailing a subject was such a novel experience.
nBut being firmly accused of cheating on an exam, and he didn’t even have a chance to prove his innocence…That would be too embarrassing.
nJing Xun didn’t mind making up for the exam, but he had a bottom line.
nHe replied: “Then teacher, do you have evidence of me cheating? You said I was the first to hand in the test paper, so who did I copy?”
nThere came a more severe rebuke: “Who knows who you copied, maybe you got my test questions ahead of time! To be honest, Yan Jingxun, teacher is very disappointed in you!”
nJing Xun said: “That’s just your own assumption. You didn’t catch me cheating on the spot, and there was no evidence that I cheated afterward, but you treated my results as cheating. In my opinion, this is very irresponsible.”
n“You…!” This teacher was over fifty years old and had been in school for all his lifetime. He was notoriously serious and strict in the department, how could he stand that.
n“So you have to give me a chance to prove myself.” Jing Xun on the other end of the phone rushed to speak out before the other party completely exploded.
n“……”
nHearing what he said, the other side paused for a while, then sneered and said, “How can you prove yourself?”
n“How about you give me another exam teacher? Test me on the spot.”
n“Then you come to my office.” The teacher’s voice still sounded stern: “Can you come over before half past nine?”
nJing Xun glanced at the time and said that there was no problem.
nIn fact, he thought it would be easier to explain the solutions of those problems to the other party directly over the phone.
nBut this seemed more suspicious, it’s better to go over and settle it face to face.
n“Sir.”
nJing Xun, who hung up the phone, ran all the way from the living room to the bedroom to find Shen Yijin: “I’ll take the morning off. I won’t go to the company.”
nShen Yijin was probably getting changed in the cloakroom.
nHearing this, he said, “Okay.”
nJing Xun didn’t enter the room, but stood at the door of the bedroom, listening to Shen Yijin’s voice from afar: “I’ll go to school with Xiao Xun.”
n“Eh.”
nJing Xun subconsciously refused: “No need, I just go to the teacher’s office.”
nHe briefly recapped the conversation he just had on the phone with Shen Yijin.
nNo matter what, the teacher was still willing to let him prove himself, this matter should be solved easily.
nJing Xun said: “Sir, go to the company first, and I will go to find you at noon.”
nShen Yijin: “Xiao Xun doesn’t like me accompanying you to school?”
n“That’s not it.” Jing Xun said, “But isn’t sir busy?”
nShen Yijin said: “I’m not busy this morning.”
n“……”
nJing Xun had to agree: “Okay then.”
nIt’s not that he didn’t like Shen Yijin accompanying him to school.
nJust the thought of sir in a western suit and leather shoes with a strong aura appearing with him at school, and in teacher’s office on top of that…..
nHe felt that they could easily create quite a stir.
nHe had no intention of discriminating against sir, but to tell the truth, Mr. Villain’s temperament really didn’t match the school ah.
n……
nJing Xun couldn’t say this out loud.
nHe scratched his hair, but it’s okay if sir wanted to go together.
nHe quickly stopped dwelling on it and returned to the corridor, making his way to the foyer, intending to set off together once Shen Yijin was done.
nBefore taking two steps forward, he heard Shen Yijin calling him.
n“Xiao Xun.”
nJing Xun turned his head subconsciously, and saw Shen Yijin, who had changed into casual clothes, standing on the marble tiles shimmered by the sun.
nHe wore a casual small V-neck loose T-shirt, with a pair of black jeans.
nThe short hair that had just been washed in the morning was clean and refreshing. After natural air-drying, it slightly droopy. There was no need for deliberate styling, the scattered hair looked just like a youthful hairstyle.
n……
nJing Xun: !
nJing Xun widened his mouth slightly.
nSir is too handsome!
nThe baggy top and skinny jeans perfectly embodied his good figure with shoulder width and long legs. In addition, the scattered hair in front of his forehead more or less covered up some of the indifference in his eyes, so Shen Yijin was a bit unlike the usual Mr. villain.
nSome people would believe it, if he said he was a student on the campus.
n
n
