The streets of Nancheng business district are full of lights and entertainment.

Huge billboards and holographic neon lights, row upon row of high-rise buildings, and teenagers riding motorcycles on the road have a very cyberpunk atmosphere.

Liu Xuan used to enjoy the fireworks of this city, but not anymore. He has to work hard to pay off the remaining debts.

Crossing the busy street and reaching the intersection, he stopped.

In front of the road, Zheng Yuting waited quietly, her eyes a little red.

It was a look he had never seen before. This proud and strong girl had a stubborn face full of loss and frustration.

"Hi, monitor!"

Liu Xuan waved with a stiff face, then lowered her head and quickened her pace, trying to escape from here quickly.

"Liu Xuan, stop!"

Zheng Yuting followed and stopped in front of him.

"Is there a problem?"

Liu Xuan asked pretending not to know, raised her head and looked at her, her eyes a little evasive.

Zheng Yuting pursed her lips, took out her mobile phone and showed him the photo of the banknote with Chen Meng's name on it.

"I went to the bar you went to yesterday, and the cashier said you paid 5,200. How do you explain it?"

Liu Xuan lowered her head and stopped talking.

"Can you give me an explanation?"

Zheng Yuting took two deep breaths and tried her best to calm down.

Dense crowds came and went, and the sound of car horns continued.

Liu Xuan murmured, not daring to look into the eyes of the girl in front of her.

"Speak! Why do you want to take this money?"

"Do you know what it means when you do this?"

Zheng Yuting's eyes turned red and she suddenly yelled.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong!"

Liu Xuan closed her eyes and shed tears of regret.

He has been a left-behind child since he was a child and grew up with his grandparents.

Since he was young, his family has told him: "Our family is poor and cannot compare with other families. Don't compare with others and save some money."

Growing up in such a family, he had to feel inferior.

Especially after entering high school, most of the classmates I came into contact with were fashionable and beautiful, and the inferiority complex hidden in my bones became even worse.

He wanted to try his best to cover up his rusticity, so he also imitated their dress.

But he knew that no matter how many fashionable clothes he put on, he could not change the fact of poverty.

Only money can cure his deep-seated inferiority complex.

"Is it useful to say sorry to me? You have spent all this money."

Zheng Yuting said coldly, turned and left.

"Monitor, please don't tell others! Please! Please!"

Liu Xuan stepped forward and took her arm, begging her hard.

"Is it useful to beg me? I can help you afford more than five thousand yuan?"

Zheng Yuting was extremely disappointed and moved on.

"I beg you, don't tell anyone else. My family still expects me to go to college. If the school leaders find out, I will definitely be expelled!"

"I still want to go to school and take the college entrance examination!"

Liu Xuan grabbed her clothes tightly and screamed at the top of her voice.

"My family is very poor. My mother works in a tailor factory, working twelve hours a day in two shifts. My father works hard at the construction site and cement."

"I don't want them to know! Monitor, please."

Liu Xuan knelt on the street, crying like a fool under the confused eyes of passers-by.

The self-esteem that I thought I couldn't lose was shattered into pieces.

Listening to Liu Xuan's crying, Zheng Yuting's steps slowed down, as if she had stepped into a quagmire.

When she heard what Liu Xuan said, she suddenly thought of her family.

She also grew up in an ordinary family. Her parents worked hard for half their lives before they found a home in the city.

Her parents were just rural people who came to the city to work. They worked day and night on the assembly line and even finding time to go to the toilet was a luxury.

After working for a long time, my mother's eyesight became worse and worse, and her cervical and lumbar vertebrae were seriously damaged. My father's back, which was originally straight, also became hunched.

It was such an ordinary person who entrusted extraordinary hopes to her as a child.

"You know your family is poor, so you should be angry!"

Zheng Yuting yelled at him, her eyes became hot and seemed to be burning.

"My family doesn't have much money, but my parents always tell me that people can be poor, but they can't be spineless."

"What do you think you are like now? Where is your backbone? Stand up!"

For people like Liu Xuan, she lamented his misfortune and was angry that he would not fight.

"I know I was wrong. I want to go to college and I don't want to be expelled! Monitor, I beg you."

Liu Xuan burst into tears and humbled herself into the dust.

Zheng Yuting looked at his humble look and suddenly softened her heart.

For a girl like her, even if she arms herself to be invulnerable and invulnerable to all poisons, she still cannot change her inner softness.

After thinking for a long time, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said softly: "I can only hide the class fee for a while, and you can figure out the rest by yourself."

After saying that, she broke away from Liu Xuan's hand and walked away alone.

Zheng Yuting, you fool, do you know what you are doing?

To condone evil deeds is to commit a crime!

But, what else can I do?

If I expose him, his high school career will be over.

His parents, who were struggling with life, must be so disappointed and sad.

His family is also looking forward to him going to college, right? I can't destroy a family's hopes.

At this moment, twilight enveloped her, and the girl ran along the crowded crowd, her braids flying in the howling evening wind.

The sky in the distance is farther than the distance, and the setting sun drowns in an orange sea.

The people who came to greet her had their own thoughts and hurriedly passed by her.

In the clothing store on the street, "The Wind Rises" was playing, a popular song she liked very much.

It's a nice melody, with piano and harmonica, but I don't know who sang the cover.

If it were Su Songyi playing the piano and singing this song, it would definitely sound nice.

She thought strangely and ran towards the road ahead for a long time.

As the sun faded, she held her knees and squatted down, looking at the dense traffic at the fork in the street, breathing heavily.

She wanted to find someone to talk to. She didn't want to talk about class fees. She just wanted to talk about when the weather would get better and when the pimples on her forehead would disappear.

After thinking for a while, she deleted the words in the chat box, her finger hung on the send button for a while, and finally lowered it.

"Can you sing me a song?"

This is the most ambiguous message she has ever sent since chatting with Su Songyi.

…

"I heard that your class's class fee was stolen. Has anyone caught it?"

Fang Zhihua was walking on the road and lightly tapped Su Songyi's arm.

Hearing this, Min Yuchan also looked over.

"We probably know who it is."

Su Songyi said calmly.

"Who?"

Fang Zhihua came over like a curious baby and blinked.

"It's not yet certain yet, so it's hard to draw conclusions."

Su Songyi shook his head.

"Oh, you really missed out on the nine-year compulsory education. If you don't learn anything well, just learn to steal. Kong Yiji knew that a gentleman is poor."

Fang Zhihua was quite emotional.

A gentleman can live happily in poverty without losing his integrity, but a villain will have evil intentions when encountering poverty.

It is said that "a gentleman is always poor, but a villain is always poor."

"Although Kong Yiji said that a gentleman is poor, he still stole something."

Su Songyi said very seriously.

"Can what a scholar does be called stealing? That's called plagiarism."

Fang Zhihua and Min Yuchan said in unison.

"Fine."

Su Songyi looked at the two sisters who had a special understanding and did not refute.

He finally understood why Brother Xun wrote "Kong Yiji is probably dead" because although Kong Yiji is dead, there are many people who have learned Kong Yiji's spirit.

At this time, the phone in my pocket vibrated.

Su Songyi picked up her phone and looked at the message from Zheng Yuting. She felt a little strange, but didn't think much about it.

"What song do you want to hear?"

"got windy."

Zheng Yuting's message came back immediately.

"I haven't listened to this song very much. Can you wait for me to listen to it again?"

"good!"

Zheng Yuting looked at Su Songyi's reply and quickly plugged in her headphones.

On the other side, Su Songyi also put on headphones and listened slowly.

After listening to the whole song, Su Songyi took off his headphones and started humming softly.

The singing is not too loud, but very soft, as if it is soothing a child who refuses to sleep peacefully to sleep.

"Once upon a time, when I first met this world, I wandered around for a long time, looking at the horizon that seemed to be before my eyes, and I was willing to go through fire and water to get there again."

"Now that I'm walking through this world, I've been wandering around in all kinds of ways, passing through the years and looking at different faces, and I can't help but break into your smile."

Fang Zhihua and Min Yuchan, who were chatting at the side, heard his singing and suddenly swallowed what they wanted to say.

"I used to find it difficult to extricate myself from the vastness of the world, and I was also addicted to talking in my sleep. I couldn't tell the truth or lie. I didn't struggle and I wasn't afraid of jokes."

"I once transformed my youth into her, and I once had summer pop up at my fingertips. Whatever my heart moved, I just let it go."

The young man's clear and gentle voice came through the earphones.

Zheng Yuting squatted at the fork in the road, watching the traffic flow on the street, people coming and going, and quietly listening to the song in the busy city.

The lingering wind blew the hair from her temples, and the sound of car horns sounded from a distance.

"Walking against the light, letting the wind and rain blow."

She smiled lightly, stood up, and left with brisk steps, her back hidden in the sunset and twilight.

She likes this lyric very much, and every word is filled with the courage to "live your whole life in the rain".

How does a girl feel when she wants to hear him sing?

Su Songyi was a little confused and thought of the sand sculpture book friend named Hahahaha. He also sang a song to her once.

"Sing, why don't you continue?"

Only then did Zhi Hua see him stop and pull his arm.

"Um?"

Su Songyi was a little confused.

"You're singing quite nicely, keep singing."

Fang Zhihua shook his arm and pouted slightly.

This is not because she wants to act coquettishly, but because of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Hearing someone suddenly stop singing in the middle of a song would make Fang Zhihua feel extremely uncomfortable, just like Su Songyi would feel uncomfortable when she heard her chirping while eating.

"It sounds really good."

Min Yuchan smiled slightly. After hearing Su Songyi's singing, she forgot what she wanted to say to Fang Zhihua before.

“I once had a hard time extricating myself from the size of the world~”

Su Songyi sang with great emotion, but stopped abruptly when a comfortable smile appeared on Fang Zhihua's face.

"Ahem, I won't sing anymore. My throat hurts a little."

Su Songyi coughed lightly and quickened her pace to move forward.

"You did it on purpose, right?"

Fang Zhihua immediately became angry, and hit him in the back with a precise megaton punch.

"If you dare to sing even halfway through your singing in the future, I will kill you!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Seeing the angry look of the fat man, Su Songyi laughed heartily.

Girls seem to have different moods when listening to him singing.

The kidnapped deer said

Liu Xuan will definitely get the punishment he deserves. In the next two chapters, the reason why I want to write this incident in a more twists and turns is also to make the relationship between Zheng Yuting, Su Songyi, and Fang Zhiyan happen through this incident.
Chapter completed!
