unexpected rain

After being surprised, Xie Zhaofeng was puzzled again. Logically speaking, he should be a corner of the big triangle. Although he has no affection for Qiao Nuo, as far as she and Xiang Shifang are concerned, his love The appearance is more in line with the third party, right?How did Lin Ji, an [-]-line person, get into the position?

Xie Zhaofeng was speechless for a while, then ran towards Xiang Shifang, put his hands on Xiang Shifang's shoulders, hopped on them, and put them on again, with a particularly awkward tone, "Am I right? Your head It's really green."

Xiang Shifang held the wrist on his shoulder and twisted——

"It hurts, it hurts!" Xie Zhaofeng howled ghostly, "I won't poke your sore spot anymore! Let go!"

Xiang Shifang let go, then pushed Xie Zhaofeng aside.

Xie Zhaofeng stuck to it again, "As your good brother for many years, I have the responsibility to share your worries and problems. Tell me about it."

"You're just listening to gossip to join in the fun." Xiang Shifang said coldly.

"It's wrong for you to think like this." Xie Zhaofeng was rather blamed, "I'm also the matchmaker of your relationship after all. How normal is it to care about the problems between you?"

Xiang Shifang chose to ignore him.

Xie Zhaofeng probed: "Is it really because of the problem baby?"

"I don't know what you're talking about." Xiang Shifang quickened his pace.

Xie Zhaofeng also had long legs, so he followed him step by step, "I called the problem baby the only one in the class. Isn't that incredible? Just Lin Ji, he can also intervene in you? Why should he?"

Xiang Shifang didn't answer this question, but his obviously gloomy face showed that he was not happy.

Xie Zhaofeng was still saying: "Just now I asked Qiao Nuo if you were going to break up, and she said yes, right? You haven't even been here for half a year. Are you really going to break up?"

These words made Xiang Shifang stop, he looked at Xie Zhaofeng and said word by word: "I will not break up with her."

Xie Zhaofeng applauded him with a look of "As expected of my brother", "I knew that the love between you and Qiao Nuo couldn't end so easily."

"It has nothing to do with feelings." Xiang Shifang said indifferently, but there was a haze in his eyes, "I just don't like being betrayed."

What's more, the other party is such an inconspicuous man.

When Xiang Shifang thought this way, the face of Lin Ji taking off his glasses in front of him in the last semester unexpectedly popped up in his mind. Those eyes were so clear and beautiful that they were fragile. When he looked at him, he was completely grateful and a little dependent, like a bird The stray cats he fed casually.

Xiang Shifang thought that scene was just an insignificant glance, but he didn't expect it to quietly occupy a corner of his memory.

Xie Zhaofeng has done work on both parties, so naturally a third person cannot be missing.

With doubts and reservations, Lin Ji came to the shade tree outside the teaching building. Xie Zhaofeng was the only one under the tree.

"What do you want from me?" Lin Ji asked.

"Come closer." Xie Zhaofeng nodded his chin, "Why are you afraid of me? I won't eat you."

Lin Ji let out an "oh" and moved forward a few steps.

"Lin Ji, you must answer honestly what I say later." Xie Zhaofeng said seriously.

Lin nodded.

"You like Qiao Nuo, don't you?"

This question seemed to have uncovered a half-healed scar in Lin Ji's heart, causing his complexion to change immediately.

Xie Zhaofeng self-righteously extracted the answer from his expression, Xie Zhaofeng said down to himself: "Lin Ji, to be honest, you are so unreasonable. If you don't know, you can say that those who don't know are innocent, but you are also considered The few people who knew they were together, but also intervened in them, this kind of behavior is disgusting."

"I didn't..." Lin seemed to be being tortured, he struggled to squeeze out his voice.

He likes Xiang Shifang, but he didn't do anything out of bounds. He even had to be careful when talking to Xiang Shifang. Now they don't say a word, and he held his feelings to death. Yes, why is it still wrong?

"No wonder you were so courteous to Shifang before. Was it to get close to Qiao Nuo? Lin Ji, listen to my advice, turn your back on it, don't continue your fruitless love, they won't break up..."

Lin Ji asked tremblingly, "Did Xiang Shifang ask you to tell me that?"

Xie Zhaofeng rolled his eyes and said, "That's right."

Lin Ji's body trembled, as if he had been pushed into the sea of ​​the North Pole. His nails sank into his palms, but he couldn't feel any pain, "Then please go back and tell him... I didn't intend to destroy their Feelings, I don't like Qiao Nuo..."

Xie Zhaofeng heard something was wrong in Lin Ji's voice, he frowned, stood up and raised Lin Ji's chin.

This pale face was stained with tears, and even the lenses were fogged up.

Lin both cried.

Xie Zhaofeng was in a hurry. He thought that the worst case would be to fight Lin Ji, but he never expected that Lin Ji would cry!

Lin turned his face away, took a few steps back, lowered his head and wiped his tears with his sleeve.

Xie Zhaofeng was in a daze, his language system was confused, and he said: "What is there to cry about? Did I say something wrong? I apologize if I said something wrong."

This is like adding fuel to the fire.

Lin Ji froze for a moment, he wiped his face vigorously, turned around and ran away.

"Hey!" Xie Zhaofeng didn't know how to make up for it, and finally patted his mouth several times, remorse and irritated: "My bad mouth!"

What surprised Lin Ji was that the harm caused by Xie Zhaofeng's words to him was almost unfeelable in one session of the in-class test.

Maybe it's because he's used to it so he's immune, or maybe it's because no matter what Xie Zhaofeng said, it didn't hit him as hard as what Xiang Shifang said before.

Lin, you have evolved.

He was still in the mood to joke inwardly.

He really shouldn't get too close to Qiao Nuo, but this was also caused by wanting to get closer to Xiang Shifang, so Lin knew that what they said was not wrong.One mistake leads to another mistake, and when it comes to the source, it is a mistake that he likes Shifang.

As soon as Lin thought of this, he stopped going down.

When I got home from school, my father Lin Cheng, who was away from home, called back.

Lu Qianran was on the phone with him while cooking in the kitchen.

Lin Ji was quietly reading the newspaper in the living room.

After a while, he heard a cough that couldn't be covered by the sizzle of food in the kitchen.

"Cough cough cough! I'm fine, the kitchen fume is too much, cough cough cough!"

Lin walked to the door of the kitchen, and there was obviously no oily smoke inside, so he frowned and asked worriedly, "Mom?"

Seeing Lin Ji, Lu Qianran covered her mouth and coughed a few more times, then she put her hand under the faucet to rinse it, and said: "My son is here, tell him first, I'm busy cooking. Okay Okay, I'll call you later."

Lin took the phone and said, "Dad?"

Lin Cheng chuckled a few times, and said, "Xiaoji, Dad is eating out now, and he can go home in three places."

As soon as Lin Cheng heard Lin Cheng's voice, he knew that he was drunk, so he said softly, "Dad, drink less."

"Dad didn't drink." Lin Cheng said vaguely, "It's your birthday at the end of the month, and Dad will definitely come back before that day to celebrate your birthday. What gift does Xiaoji want?"

"It's fine if you come back safely." Lin Ji said with a smile, "Dad, if you've been drinking, you should rest enough before driving."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you." Lin Cheng's laughter was very honest, and he seldom laughed normally.

Lu Qianran brought out the food, and said to Lin Ji: "Okay, let's talk after dinner, let your dad have a good meal too."

Lin agreed, then hung up the phone after saying a few more words.

Lu Qianran put the bowls and chopsticks on and said, "Your dad didn't know how many bottles he drank, he was so rambunctious, he talked to me a lot just now, he talked about the past, and after that, he lost his head."

"It's rare for Dad to be like this." Lin Ji said, "He used to sleep when he was drunk."

"Stupid." Lu Qianran said with a smile, "It's a bit like when he was chasing me."

Lin thought of something, and said, "Mom, why are you still coughing, did you go to the hospital?"

"It's not a big deal. The temperature has changed a lot these days, so I caught a cold." Lu Qianran said indifferently.

Lin Ji thought it was true, Lu Qianran's cough didn't last for a day or two, but lasted for several months. Although she didn't cough continuously, she occasionally coughed so badly that she seemed to be able to cough up all her organs.

"I think I still have to go to the hospital." Lin Ji said seriously.

Lu Qianran didn't disagree, and nodded with a smile: "Mom knows, I'll go when I'm free."

Only now did Lin feel at ease eating.

Time soon came to the end of the month, and Lin Ji's birthday would be two days away, and his peaceful life would end on this day.

First of all, he was inexplicably dragged to the bottom of the stairs on the first floor by someone in school that day. His actions were very rude, and he almost made Lin Ji fall to the ground with a hard shake.

"Who are you?" Lin Ji suppressed his panic.

"I'm your grandpa!" The man was tall and fierce, looking at Lin as if he were an enemy, his eyes almost wanted to eat him.

After Lin identified it, he knew who he was. He had seen this face several times last semester, and he had often come to look for Xiang Shifang, who was Xiang Shifang's cousin.

"I don't know you." Lin Ji tried to use a calm and harmless tone, "If there is any misunderstanding, we can make it clear."

"Misunderstanding?" Yang Zeyi stared into copper bells, "You put a cuckold on my brother, how dare you call it a misunderstanding?"

"..." Lin Ji wanted to laugh out loud, one or two, even Xiang Shifang himself felt that he was fighting for Qiao Nuo, Lin Ji wondered if he was really attractive, besides, he really liked him. people.It's messed up like a satirical comedy.

"I don't know who you heard it from, but I didn't cuckold him." Lin Ji said patiently, "I used to be ordinary friends with his girlfriend, but now we are no longer in touch."

But Yang Zeyi didn't believe him at all. This kid looked honest, but the more he was like this, the more he would be full of mischief. What's more, he heard the news about this brother from Xie Zhaofeng. Of course, he believed Xie Zhaofeng even more.

So Yang Zeyi lifted Lin Ji's collar, and said harshly, "I warn you, stay away from them, because of you, I can crush you to death with any finger!"

Lin struggled uncomfortably, "Let go of me! I said I didn't do those things! I said it over and over again, why don't you believe me?!"

"You still dare to quibble?!" Yang Zeyi was so used to it that he raised his hand and was about to hit someone.

"Yang Zeyi, stop!"

It was a deep and cold voice.

Yang Zeyi was very sensitive to this voice, and could barely hold back his strength, but his hard fist still grazed Lin Ji's chin. He was forced to bite his teeth, biting the tip of his tongue, and tears flowed from the pain.

Then Yang Zeyi was dragged away, and Xiang Shifang stood in front of Lin Ji, and reprimanded him in a stern tone: "What can you do in school and what can't you do, haven't you learned it? Do you have to suffer a little to learn a lesson?"

Yang Zeyi immediately admitted his mistake and bowed his head, completely lacking the prestige he had just now.

Xiang Shifang turned around and saw Lin Ji lowered his head and tightly covered his mouth with one hand.

"What's wrong with you?" Xiang Shifang asked, wanting to take his hand away while talking.

After Lin avoided it, his voice was a little hoarse, and he said vaguely: "I'm fine."

"Wow, what's going on here?"

It was like a script written by heaven, Xie Zhaofeng and Qiao Nuo also happened to pass by, and they walked in, only to see Lin Ji in the corner.

"This..." Xie Zhaofeng had a question mark on his face.

On the other hand, Qiao Nuo was keenly aware of Lin Ji's discomfort. She walked over quickly and asked with concern, "Are you okay?" Then she frowned and looked at Xiang Shifang and Yang Zeyi, "What did you do to him?"

Xiang Shifang felt a complicated displeasure at this, "I didn't do anything."

Yang Zeyi explained in a low voice: "I heard brother Xie said that he interfered in the relationship between my brother and sister Nuo, so I just wanted to vent my anger on my brother..."

"You!" Xie Zhaofeng pointed at him forcefully, "You idiot! When did I say that?!"

"When you came to our house, I heard..."

They were about to argue when Lin Ji said, "Please listen to me."

All eyes were on him.

Lin put down his hand, his lips were stained with blood, his face was pale and his eyes were red, coupled with his hoarse voice, he looked very weak among these tall and beautiful people.

"What I'm going to say below is all true. If there is any falsehood, there will be a thunderbolt." Lin said with difficulty. He knew that he was just like a joke at the moment, but he also had his own dignity.

"For the misunderstanding caused by my relationship with Qiao Nuo's friends before, I apologize to you, I'm sorry." Lin had a sore nose, and he held back his emotions, "But I really didn't have any improper thoughts about Qiao Nuo , and did not do anything to damage the relationship between her and Xiang Shifang."

"I don't know why you guys misunderstand me so much. No matter what I say, it's useless."

"Please..." Lin Jiyin trembled, "Please let me go."

After finishing speaking, Lin Ji ran out of this suffocating circle.

Xiang Shifang subconsciously stretched out his hand to grab Lin Ji's wrist, but only touched his cuff.

Xie Zhaofeng choked out "Damn", Lin Ji's appearance made him really sad, obviously he also caused harm to Lin Ji.

"You guys..." Qiao Nuo gritted her teeth, she wanted to scold someone, but she knew it was all because of her, if she hadn't really fallen in love with him...

Yang Zeyi timidly said, "Shall I apologize to him?"

However, no one saw Lin Ji afterwards, because after running upstairs, Lin Ji was called to the office and received a phone call that changed the course of his life to a cliff.

After a week, Lin did not come to school.
