The place Ke Xiangran took him to was a restaurant near his home.Of course, Wen Xi didn't have much research on restaurants, but from the decoration and service alone, it can be seen that this restaurant should not be cheap.

"Don't think too much." Ke Xiangran seemed to see his thoughts, and said casually, "I have a lot of pocket money—if it wasn't for this, those little kids wouldn't always be persistent."

What he said reminded Wen Xi to ask his own doubts. Ke Xiangran seemed to be quite familiar with those bad boys, and his words seemed very casual.

"Well, we know each other." Ke Xiangran readily admitted, "I joined them a while ago... That's why they didn't believe that I would call the police."

join in……?Wen Xi was very surprised, there was no such record in the data.He hesitated to confirm: "Are you referring to skipping class and going out to play with them?"

"Not really." Ke Xiangran said, "Because I joined during the summer vacation."

"Oh..." It's normal to have a blank message for a month or two during the summer vacation.

Wen Xi sized up Ke Xiangran for a while. Although he had already experienced the infinite energy under this obedient appearance, he still found it incredible: "Have you been playing with them for a month? Or two months?"

"Huh? How is it possible? It's so boring!" Ke Xiangran sneered a little disgustedly, pushed the menu in front of Wen Xi, and replied naturally:

"—my bastard career was over in less than two days."

"..."

"Being scared by you this time, they must not dare to come to me again in the future." Ke Xiangran said casually after drinking the water, "They are not such bad children. They are just human beings, and they always want to do something. When doing stupid things."

Hearing this, Wen Xi's gaze stayed on Ke Xiangran's face for a while, and then moved away silently.

——For things that are not within the scope of the mission, there is no need to ask more questions.

Ke Xiangran waited quietly until Wen Xi casually ticked the menu and handed it to the waiter, then asked thoughtfully, "You're not really curious about me, are you?"

Wen Xi didn't expect him to be so straightforward, but he didn't intend to lie, although he was a little nervous, he simply nodded and admitted.

"Very good." Ke Xiangran suddenly relaxed and said in a good mood, "If I have to ask someone for help, I will definitely choose the one who is not interested in me."

Wen Xi immediately said: "Then let me help you—"

Ke Xiangran interrupted him: "No."

At this time, the waiter began to serve the dishes, and the two fell into silence for a while.When all the dishes were served, Wen Xi immediately asked, "Why don't you let me help you?"

"I would like to ask, why did you help me?" Ke Xiangran said, motioning for Wen Xi to eat.

Wen Xi didn't move, and decided to tell him the truth: "Because you made a wish, I want to help you realize it..."

"Ahem... huh?" Before he could finish speaking, Ke Xiangran suddenly choked on laughter, and said in disbelief, "Can you make up a reliable story? Who do you think I am? Three years old Little girl? I look like the kind of person who believes in fairy tales and wishes on shooting stars?"

You really don't look like you now, but you are very similar to the one who cried tears all over your face three years ago... Wen Xi explained palely: "What I said is true."

"Shut up." Ke Xiangran was a little unhappy, "I'm not smart, but I'm not a fool! If you dare to insult my IQ again, I'll throw you outside!"

"I wanted to tell him that even if there were three, he wouldn't be able to throw me away, but I'm afraid he might lose his temper, so forget it." Wen Xi said, "So teacher, is the story I told so unbelievable?"

Sang Wanwan put on the mask, afraid of waking up her husband and children sleeping in the room, and replied in a low voice: "Do you want to listen to the truth? ——Before today, I always thought you were just making up."

"..." Wen Xi was speechless.

"But I really believe it now." Sang Wanwan said with complicated feelings, "You are really..." Naive?Idealized?Late stage of obsessive-compulsive disorder?She couldn't find the right words for a while, so she reluctantly chose "has the ability to act".

It's a pity that her trust can't play a practical role.Wen Xi was still very troubled.

"Would you like me to say something nice for you? My speech at Ran Ran has more weight." Seeing that he was really distressed, Sang Wanwan couldn't help suggesting.

"No." Wen Xi refused without thinking. "You are the person he respects the most. I don't want him to find out that you are hired unless it is absolutely necessary."

That's true... Sang Wanwan was a little grateful for Wen Xi's carefulness, but at the same time she lost her mind, so the two had to say goodbye temporarily.

In the next few days, Ke Xiangran's attitude towards Wen Xi was always ordinary, and he would answer if he had to start a conversation, but once words such as "help", "lecture" and "tutoring" were mentioned, the topic would end instantly .

After spending a whole weekend in the laboratory, Wen Xi, who was about to face life's problems again, suddenly realized that Ke Xiangran's state seemed wrong after half a morning.

He quietly looked at the people next to him from the corner of his eye while writing at his desk.I saw that Ke Xiangran changed from the way he used to write or cover his ears to memorize books, and he leaned on the back of the chair in a daze, motionless, staring blankly at his desktop.

This special phenomenon seems to have started after the early self-study was called away by the teacher, Wen Xi recalled.

What on earth happened?He tried to ask Ke Xiangran in a low voice, but the other party didn't bother to give him any response.

Wen Xi didn't understand until the school's radio program rang at noon that day.

Ke Xiangran had been co-hosting the lunch program with a certain senior before, but it was an unfamiliar female voice.

Ke Xiangran was replaced.After realizing this, Wen Xi slowed down towards the dining hall, turned around and returned to the classroom. Seeing that no one was there, he searched all the places in the school where there were relatively few people and where the radio could be heard clearly. Finally, in the teaching building A figure with its back turned to him was spotted on the lawn behind.

The figure squatted by the flower bed with its back facing him, its shoulders shaking slightly.

Wen Xi hesitated for a while, then slowed down and quietly walked to a place not far behind Ke Xiangran, trying to call his name: "Ke Xiangran?"

no response.Wen Xi had no choice but to take two steps closer and continued to call him: "Ke Xiangran."

Finally heard it this time, Ke Xiangran turned his head hesitantly, revealing a pair of surprised eyes, bread crumbs at the corner of his mouth, and... a tree branch covered in dirt in his hands.

The two looked at each other.Wen Xi's expression disappeared little by little, and he asked with a blank face: "What are you doing?"

"Oh." Ke Xiangran threw down the branch, clapped his hands and stood up, "I just saw a bug I've never seen before...how do you know I'm here?"

"Really." Wen Xi was a little embarrassed: "I didn't follow you, I started looking for you when I heard the radio."

"Oh? Wait a minute." Ke Xiangran suddenly discovered something interesting: "You didn't think that I was crying with that expression just now, did you?"

"..." Wen Xi silently walked to a place two or three steps away from him and sat down.

Ke Xiangran became even more joyful: "Do you really think I will hide and cry alone? Classmate Wen Xi?"

"So," Wen Xi waited for him to laugh enough before asking, "what's going on?"

He didn't ask specific questions, but Ke Xiangran obviously knew what he meant, so he shrugged his shoulders with the laughter on the radio, and replied: "I didn't do well, and the recommended teacher left again. They have a more suitable one. Candidates, just replace me."

"The new junior girl is said to be the beauty of the school." Ke Xiangran told Wen Xi, "Everyone is looking forward to her appearance."

Wen Xi didn't continue this topic, but asked straightforwardly: "Are you sad now?"

Ke Xiangran stopped, and the smile on the corner of his mouth disappeared little by little. "Sad." He admitted lightly, "but what's the use of being sad?"

What's the use of being sad.Wen Xi didn't think too much when asking the question, but just wanted to confirm Ke Xiangran's current mood.But when the other party said these words in a helpless tone, he suddenly felt a trace of heartache for no reason.

Seeing that he didn't speak again.Ke Xiangran asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?"

Wen Xi replied, "I'm a little sad too."

"Why are you sad? You obviously didn't listen to my show before." Ke Xiangran said with a smile, "You don't like the school belle too, are you unhappy that she is going to cooperate with the seniors?"

Wen Xi was silent, he was thinking about who the school girl was.

But Ke Xiangran realized it was wrong, he stared wide-eyed in shock: "Oh my god, it's actually true?"

Wen Xi came to her senses and quickly denied it: "It's not..."

"Then why are you so sad? If you don't like junior girls, can you still like seniors? That's a bit exciting!" Ke Xiangran obviously didn't believe him, and even joked.

"..." Wen Xi realized that the rebuttal was getting darker and darker, so he decided to divert his attention: "Why are you suddenly so energetic? Don't you often go back and read books on the way, and spend a long time every weekend looking for the broadcast material for next week? It should be I really like this job-"

Watching Ke Xiangran's face gradually becoming surprised and vigilant, Wen Xi suddenly realized that he had inadvertently revealed the information his teacher had told him.

"How did you know about going out to find broadcast materials on weekends?" Ke Xiangran asked incredulously, "I obviously never told my parents about this, I only told..."

Wen Xi stared at Ke Xiangran nervously, as expected, the next second he asked loudly: "What's your relationship with Teacher Sang?"

"Calm down first." The paper really couldn't contain the fire.Up until now, Wen Xi had no choice but to try his best to appease Ke Xiangran, "I do have some contact with Teacher Sang Wanwan..."

Wen Xi was thinking about what to say so that Ke Xiangran would not overreact, but he did not expect that the other party calmed down quickly first.Ke Xiangran didn't know what was going on in his mind, so he asked, "Ms. Sang asked you to help me, right? Are you her relative?"

"..." Wen Xi couldn't have imagined that this was the direction at all, and nodded subconsciously under Ke Xiangran's expectant eyes.

"I should have guessed it earlier." Ke Xiangran said in a low voice, "Ms. Sang said that she has a younger brother who is about my age from far away."

... Teacher Sang never told him this.Wen Xi listened with a guilty conscience.

"How could someone come to help me for no reason? She must have heard that you turned around and asked you specifically, right?" Ke Xiangran asked expectantly, and Wen Xi nodded slightly again.

"—Sure enough. Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

Wen Xi, who can't lie, started talking nonsense, he didn't even know what he was talking about.

"I must be afraid that I feel that I owe her too much." Ke Xiangran lived up to his expectations and used the filter to help Wen Xi make up for the flaws, and sighed in a low voice: "Teacher Sang is the best teacher in the world."
