Chapter 017 Closer than this

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, with no intention of stopping.

For the first time in her life, Li Xingchen listened to the sound of footsteps and her brain automatically accurately matched a face. The strong intuition made her a little panicked.

"Hey, Li Xingchen." The person behind shouted.

This person's voice is low, with natural magnetism, the graininess is obvious but not abrupt, the tail tone is a little raised, and the accent is always lazy and very recognizable.

Li Xingchen's steps paused and his heart tightened.

Isn't he here to ask for help?

The other two people stopped when they heard the sound and looked towards the visitor.

After seeing who it was, Qiu Qize's expression changed slightly. Although Jiang Xingye had never dealt with him, he recognized him in less than a second.

The footsteps came closer and stopped, and a tall gray shadow covered his side, blocking the strong sunlight.

It has a light refreshing mint scent.

Li Xingchen pursed his lips and did not move.

Jiang Cong had already changed out of his jersey. Due to the height difference, he bent down, got close to her ear, and said at a volume that only two people could hear: "Are we really going to the Qinzheng Building?"

Li Xingchen: "..."

After a moment of silence, she explained softly: "I didn't mean it, I just went to get the book, and then..."

Jiang Cong nodded, and before she could finish speaking, he said first, "You know, you're lost, aren't you?"

Li Xingchen: "..."

They were very close, and when the boy was talking, his breath was spraying on the ears, which was obviously just warm, but when it fell, it was doubled and burning, and it was slightly itchy.

The tips of her fair ears were burning, and she carefully moved to the side in centimeters to get some distance away, still not daring to look at him.

Jiang Cong watched her move slowly, her face flushed with blush, paused slightly, and then smiled.

A low, melodious chuckle rang in his ears, and Li Xingchen glanced at him quickly.

This must be because he is not angry...

Jiang Xingye looked at Jiang Cong's inappropriate distance and thought Li Xingchen's reaction was resistance. He frowned deeply and looked a little cold.

He knew this person's reputation and heard about the background behind him.

A few seconds later, Jiang Xingye's brows widened, and with a gentle smile, he interrupted seemingly casually: "Are you Jiang Cong?"

It can be regarded as a rescue after weighing the appropriate methods.

Qiu Qize next to him glanced at him and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Cong didn't respond immediately when he heard the inquiry, but stared at her slightly trembling eyelashes for a few seconds before straightening up.

Li Xingchen closed his eyes and exhaled softly, feeling in his heart that all the villains were collectively grateful to Senior Jiang.

When Jiang Cong raised his eyelids to look at the inquirer, the smile in his eyes had faded away. He glanced at him up and down and said two silent words: Who are you?

"You may not know me, but I know you..." He paused, suddenly smiled, and his tone became a little intriguing: "Because you are quite famous."

Although Jiang Xingye is gentle, he is not less imposing. His eyes are not evasive when speaking, and the eyes he looks at him are gentle, but there is a hint of a knife edge.

Jiang Cong faced him head-on, his eyes showing no signs of confusion, just like looking at any passerby A, B, B, C or D.

They are two celebrities in the school, and they are also two extremes in the school. Their eyes collided on this school road, attracting a lot of attention and whispers.

After another moment of silence, Jiang Cong's expression finally changed. He frowned, usually showing impatient waiting, "So, are you okay, Zhang San?"

Jiang Xingye subconsciously asked: "What Zhang San?"

"If you don't say your name, it will always be Zhang San."

"...I am Jiang Xingye."

"Oh." Jiang Cong raised his eyebrows, "Are you okay?"

"……fine."

"It's okay, why did you call me?" Jiang Cong's expression turned completely unhappy at being interrupted for no reason.

Jiang Xingye: "..." If you stay away from this girl, I won't call you...

Jiang Xingye glanced at Li Xingchen and said, "I think you and this school girl seem to know each other. Are you... classmates?"

"Classmate?" Jiang Cong repeated, half-smiling but not smiling: "It's more than that..."

He tilted his head towards Li Xingchen, looked sideways, and said leisurely: "We are closer than this."

Li Xingchen: "..."

Jiang Xingye observed Li Xingchen's expression and felt that it was definitely not what Jiang Congyi meant, but she did not argue, which made him a little confused and worried.

"It's true..." Qiu Qize, who had been silent next to him, said.

Hearing the sound, Jiang Xingye looked at him, Jiang Cong also glanced over, and Qiu Qize said matter-of-factly: "They are still at the same table now."

Jiang Xingye: "..."

After digesting for a long time, his eyebrows seemed to relax, as if a medium-sized stone had fallen to the ground in his heart.

Jiang Cong glanced around the three of them, not intending to say anything in front of these two outsiders, and raised his feet to leave.

But as soon as he passed the three people, he stopped again. Li Xingchen's heart relaxed and tightened with his movements, like riding a roller coaster.

I saw him scanning around the three of them again, and finally focused on the two sets of school uniforms held in the little girl's arms.

As if he was thinking about something, after a few seconds, he stretched out his hand and took out the school uniform.

"..." Li Xingchen subconsciously wanted to snatch it back, "Thank you..."

She wanted to say "Thank you, no need", but the words got stuck in her throat as soon as she left her mouth.

Because in the next second, Jiang clicked from the left and right, and the two sets of school uniforms landed firmly on the half stack of books held by Qiu Qize and Jiang Xingye.

Jiang Cong glanced around for the third time, and nodded with satisfaction this time, then looked down at her, and said generously before walking away: "You're welcome."

Collective of three people: "………………"

Jiang Cong didn't walk fast but took long steps, and it didn't take long for him to distance himself from the three of them.

"If you don't feel comfortable sitting there, I can help you talk to the teacher about changing your position." Qiu Qize said on the way.

Jiang Xingye then said: "Yes, elementary school girl, if you encounter anything, you must speak up in time, don't be afraid."

Li Xingchen nodded subconsciously, but after finishing the nod, he realized something was wrong. Did they think Jiang Cong was bullying her?

She was a little nervous just now, but she felt more guilty. After all, although it was unintentional, she did eavesdrop on people's speech.

As for Jiang Cong, although he looked a bit fierce, after getting along with him for a few days, Li Xingchen felt that he was not exactly as overbearing as others said. Apart from not studying, he never disturbed others.

So she explained: "You may have misunderstood. I don't know how to explain it specifically, but it is definitely not what you think."

Qiu Qize said nothing more. Jiang Xingye still frowned uneasily, "Nothing is best. If you have something, you must say it."

Li Xing silently nodded, a little absent-mindedly.

She couldn't help but think that everyone seemed to take it for granted to define Jiang Cong, but no one had ever really gotten in touch with him, including her.

Jiang never returned to work and went straight to the fourth floor. By coincidence, the target hit the muzzle of the gun.

Bai Daiyi sighed secretly when he saw his coming, turned around and ran away, but was caught from behind without any suspense.
