If I like you, I will follow you

He went back to the room and wanted to ask Chi Yueping if he had returned home safely. He opened WeChat and realized that the two of them hadn't exchanged contact information.

He remembered that there was Chi Yue in the class group, so he logged into the Penguin. As soon as he boarded, countless messages flooded in, and his phone froze. After finally returning to normal, he found Chi Yue's account in the group, and sent A message passed: Are you home yet?

Lin Xi said without batting an eye, "I suddenly remembered something. Yesterday, I saw Dad secretly pouring the carrot, tomato, celery and avocado soup you cooked into the trash can."

"What?" Ms. Tang was angry: "Lin Xingyu dared to spoil my hard work like this, I will go to him to settle the score."

Didn't reply, probably haven't seen it yet.

"Xiaoqi, baby," Tang Ruowei insisted, "You have to remember that no matter how beautiful or attractive the wild flowers outside are, it will only last for a while. Only home is your eternal harbor."

Lin Xi stopped in his tracks and weakly held onto the fence: "Mom, I just had a meal outside, not cheating."

"..."

Question, how can I quickly divert Ms. Tang Ruowei's attention?

Ms. Tang's focus is different and strange: "What do you mean by cheating? Are you in a relationship?"

"Xiao Qi, although you are good-looking, this cannot be the reason for your cheating. You must think carefully about falling in love, and stick to the end. Isn't it a hooligan not to be responsible to others?"

As soon as the car stopped, he opened the door and floated upstairs without looking back.

Answer: Misfortunes lead to the opposite direction.

On the second day, the monitor of Class [-] was late as expected, and did not show up until the morning class was about to end.

"Report." He was wearing a blue medical mask, his voice sounded a bit muffled, his standing posture was quite standard, his back was always straight, and it seemed that he couldn't bend it.

Lin Xi put down his phone, not worried about his safety.

Unless he came home late and was hit by his parents in mixed doubles, a school bully like Chi Yue who was 1.8 meters tall and could easily take on more than one man would not be in any danger.

He sat down at the table and turned on the lamp.

It was only then that Lin Xi noticed that his profile picture was a sleepy little golden retriever lying on the floor with drooping eyelids. It looked fluffy and was seriously inconsistent with the bad image of a school bully that was rumored.

It was a bit late to reply, Lin Xi couldn't tell if he just saw it, or if he didn't want to return but had to, so he delayed replying until now.

He tapped the screen and replied with a word: Yes.

The fourth class was the Chinese teacher's class. Seeing him like this didn't make him too uncomfortable. He just thought he was sick and let him enter the classroom with a nod.

Chi returned to his seat and sat down without saying a word.

The weather was still hot at this time, the moment he sat down, Lin Xi could feel the temperature emanating from his body.

Chi Yue briefly turned his head and looked at him.

Seeing his forehead soaked in sweat, Lin Xi suddenly had a very inexplicable thought with no reason to support it.

Chi Yuehui was late, and it probably had something to do with him.

He tore off a piece of paper, wrote a sentence and pushed it over: Why are you late?

There was a slight sound of a pen rubbing against the paper beside him, and after a while, the note was passed to him again: Nothing.

Lin Xi held a pen and fell into deep thought.

He didn't seem to have any stance to ask questions, and there was a greater probability that Chi would not tell him.

He threw the note with only two short dialogues into the belly of the table and didn't care about it.

Not long after, the bell rang for the end of get out of class. Lin Qi got up and was about to leave. Chi Yue didn't respond. He just lay down on the table, and he didn't seem to have any intention of leaving the classroom.

Lin Xi wondered, did he stop by for lunch on the way to school?

Layer after layer of students emerged from the classroom, pouring down like a tide.

The students exchanged the gossip and gossip they had just heard. The stairs were low and narrow, and the voices of their speech could not circle out, and all of them faithfully entered the ears of passers-by.

"Have you heard that the school bully fought at the school gate again yesterday?"

"Didn't it say that the school bully and the president were eating outside together?"

"Oh," the girl said in a subtly excited tone, "After the president left, the school bully and Zhou Shao got into a fight."

"?? Why did the school bully fight with Zhou Shao?"

"I reasonably speculate that it was rivals fighting each other!"

Lin Xi: "..."

Ke Zheng struggled to suppress his intense curiosity, approached cautiously, and asked in a thief's tone, "Dad, why did Chi Yue fight Zhou Shao?"

Lin Xi pushed his dog's head aside: "I don't know either."

He turned and went back upstairs: "You go to the cafeteria first, and I'll go back to the classroom."

"Ugh??"

The classroom was empty, and the sunlight was noisy and flooding, falling on the neatly arranged desks.

In such an environment, the sound of footsteps is particularly clear.

Chi Yue didn't care if anyone came back to the classroom, but the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and he finally realized that they were coming for him.

He raised his head, saw Lin Qi who had gone and returned, and was taken aback.

Lin Qi sat on the seat in front of him, and said in a nonchalant manner: "I heard something."

"what?"

"You got into a fight with someone?"

Chi Yue didn't deny it: "Yes."

"It's just a fight, why didn't you tell me?"

Chi Yue opened his mouth, but found that he seemed unable to answer this question.

Why?He didn't understand why either.

Maybe, there is a little selfishness, he doesn't want Lin Qi to know that he is fighting with Zhou Shao.

"Are you wearing a mask because you were injured?" Lin Qi asked, "Can I have a look?"

Before Chi Yue had time to refuse, Lin Qi had already raised his hand.

He didn't expect that President Lin's words were not interrogative sentences at all, but notices.

"you?"

Chi Yue lowered his eyes and saw thin white fingers flashing past, hooking the bottom of the mask, and pulling it lightly.

"I thought...you were hurt a little bit." Lin Qi touched the wound on Chi Yue's chin lightly with his fingertips, and quickly retracted it: "Are you bitten by a dog?"

Last night, when I heard Zhou Shao's words, the anger and many unprovoked hostility suddenly dissipated a lot.

Chi Yue said "um", and replied in a low voice, "It was caught by a dog."

The wound on his chin is a little deep, but there are no other scars. Just looking at this one, it is hard to tell how hard he was beaten. However, thinking that this is a master who can retreat unharmed, Lin Xi still asked: "What about the guy you fought with?"

"Go to the hospital," Chi Yue didn't want to mention Zhou Shao, he scribbled back, and said, "Why don't you go to eat?"

"I heard that you got into a fight with others, so I hurried back to check on your health."

"You've seen it," said Chi Yue, "now you can go to eat."

The president has never been rushed to eat like this before, so he felt a little novel for a while: "Okay."

Just as he was about to leave, Chi Yue said again, "Wait."

"Ok?"

Chi grabbed a handful of hair irritably, unable to speak, "That."

"Which one?" Lin Xi was very patient.

"That Zhou Shao," Chi Yue raised his eyes and looked at him seriously: "Don't talk to him anymore."

"You said that." Lin Qi laughed, "Well, I see."

He replied very indifferently, Chi Yue's tone was a little heavier, emphasizing: "I'm serious, he's not a good person."

When these words came out of the school bully's mouth, it sounded extremely unreliable.

But Lin Xi didn't think it was weird, he just replied seriously: "Okay, I see."

He walked a few steps, thought of something, turned around and asked, "By the way, Chi Yue, do you want to stay in the classroom or go back to the dormitory?"

"Go back to the dormitory."

"Yes." Lin Qi nodded and left.

Chi Yue: "?"

Is this gone?

After such a long delay, Lin Xi reckoned that the cafeteria had almost finished eating, so he didn't go to the cafeteria again, but went to the school supermarket.

The supermarket is divided into two parts, one is the snack area, and the other is the school supplies and daily necessities area. It is the time to go back to the dormitory for a rest. The snacks area is crowded and the supplies area is empty.

Lin Xi walked into the supply area without looking sideways. There were band-aids on the shelves, and there were many kinds of them. Lin Xi raised his hand, stopped for a second on the band-aid box with the cat pattern printed on it, and picked up the standard plain version beside him.

He didn't know what happened, but judging from Chi Yue's words, the reason they fought was really because of him.

Then he would always buy a box of Band-Aids for the injured tablemate, as a thank you gift.

Back in the dormitory, he knocked on Chi Yue's door.

He was not asked to wait at all, and the door almost opened in response.

Chi Yue seemed to be washing his face just now, and the water droplets rolled down his chin to his neck, wetting his collar a little.

Lin Xi: "..."

He vaguely understood why Chi Yue had to wear a mask to school.

He threw the Band-Aid into Chi Yue's arms: "Did no one tell you that your wound is not suitable for touching water?"

Chi Yue caught the box, "Can't you?"

"Not only can't, you have to get a rabies vaccine for your injury."

Chi Yue raised his eyelids and paused: "It wasn't caught by a dog."

"Ok?"

"It was hit." Chi Yue said, "So, don't hit it."

Lin Xi: "...OK."

In the afternoon, Chi Yue really didn't wear a mask anymore, but there was an extra band-aid on his chin.

But this time, the news that Chi Xiaoba and Zhou Shao were fighting for love at the school gate has spread, and everyone who sees the Band-Aid on his face will glance at him curiously. Hurry up and tear off the Band-Aid, and then you hear a calm voice from the deskmate next door: "Don't tear it off, or I will let you eat all the Band-Aid."

Chi Yue's raised hand paused in the air for a second, and then he put it down as if nothing had happened.

"Why are you so fierce?" Chi Yue wondered, "Are you so fierce to others?"

"No, it's just for you. You enjoy the special treatment of the president, shouldn't you be happy?"

Chi Yue: "Are all the students in your school blind, unable to see that you are not a good person?"

"You are also from our school, classmate Chi Yue." Lin Qi said: "The students in our school are not blind. As for why they can't see it... Maybe it's because I'm good-looking."

Chi Yue: "?"

"Do you have any opinion?"

Lin Qi leaned over and looked at him without blinking: "Did I say something wrong?"

Suddenly increasing the distance, Chi Yue restrained his instinct to retreat and looked at his face carefully.

It was so close that he could even count how many eyelashes he had, each root was clearly immersed in the sunlight, and the tails of his eyes were slightly hooked.

The color of the pupils is very dark, and the color of the lips...he can't tell whether it is light or dark, but it always feels like a peach blossom.

Chi Yue: "General."

Lin Xi sat back: "Then we can draw a conclusion, other people are not blind, you are more blind."

The two students in the front row: "..."

God, what did they hear!

After a day of fermentation, the news of Chi Yue and Zhou Shao's fight finally reached the ears of the school teachers.

It would be fine if they fought in a place that no one knew about, but it happened in the street near the school, in front of so many students from the Ming Dynasty. Strict discipline, almost ashamed of the school motto of peace and friendship.

Before school was over, Chi Yue was called to the office by the solemn Su Xiu.

He just stood up when Lin Xi gently grabbed the hem of his clothes.

Lin Qi looked at his confused gaze, and sighed softly, "Don't admit it's not your fault."

Chi Yue's Adam's apple moved slightly: "Yes."

It was a very calm sentence, but he suddenly had a very strange feeling.

He couldn't help asking, "Why do you think it's not my fault?"

He didn't realize it himself, the subtext of this sentence is actually, why do you believe me?

Chi Yue is not really blind, of course he knows how bad his reputation in school is, he never cares, what those people say can't affect him, it's just the feeling of being believed by Lin Xi, which still makes him feel in the novelty It feels a little strange again.

"Why?" Lin Qi slightly curved his lips: "Maybe it's intuition."

intuition?What intuition?

Chi Yue didn't quite understand, Su Xiu urged him again, so he had to follow Su Xiu to the office first.

On the way, Su Xiu asked calmly, "Why did you fight with others?"

Teacher Su usually speaks softly and softly, and is rarely so strict, but he is still the class teacher, and gentleness and strictness are often just a thought. Chi Yue was not surprised, but said: "It's nothing."

"No reason why? Chi Yue, the teacher asked you a question, hoping that you would answer it seriously, not just to fool you casually."

Chi Yue didn't deliberately fool him, it's just that Lin Qi was involved in the fight, and he really didn't know how to explain it: "It's really nothing."

Su Xiu was about to be stunned: "You'll be in front of the dean in a while, you're going to say the same, right?"

Chi Yue remained silent.

Su Xiu had nothing to say, so she quickened her pace and went to the office.

The office has long been full of people, Class [-] head teacher, grade director, teaching director, and Zhou Shao with gauze on his face, a group of teachers stood with their faces sinking like water, creating a tense atmosphere that was about to storm. The students who came to deliver their homework entered the door nervously, and then went out silently.

Chi Yue followed Su Xiu into the office. Hearing the movement, Zhou Shao raised his head, and the eyes of the two collided coldly.

Seeing the gauze on Zhou Shao's face, Chi Yue raised the corners of his mouth in a mild manner, as if mocking.

Zhou Shao's eyes suddenly became gloomy, but only for a moment.

"Everyone is here, right?" the dean asked, "Come on, Chi Yue, tell me, why did you fight at the school gate last night?"

Chi Yue's answer remained unchanged: "Nothing."

"There is nothing to fight? Since there is no reason, why don't you fight with me?" The old fritters of the dean for many years are tired of hearing the students' rhetoric: "Be honest, otherwise I will invite your parents to come and let me They came to watch you two fight heroically."

Chi Yue didn't return, the dean circled around him carefully, and smiled: "Okay, you are quite stubborn, why, do you want to be punished?"

Demerits at school are required to be entered in personal files, Su Xiu hurriedly pleaded, "Director, is the demerit too serious?"

"Okay, then let me ask again, why did you two fight? Who did it first?" The dean turned his eyes around the two, and landed on Chi Yue: "Chi Yue, did you do it first?" ?”

Chi Yue had entered the office several times because of fights before, and the teaching director didn't have a good impression of him, but he didn't expect Chi Yue to deny it: "No."

"Hehe," said the dean in surprise, "Who is it if it's not you, Zhou Shao, did you do it first?"

To be honest, he didn't believe that Zhou Shao did it first. After all, Zhou Shao's injury was much more serious than Chi Yue's, and he even had a few stitches on his head.

If it weren't for that, the school wouldn't be looking for them either.

The place where the two of them fought was relatively remote. There was only a word of mouth between the students and a short video taken by the students. In the video, the two of them had already fought, and it was impossible to tell who started it first.

Zhou Shao glanced at Chi Yue: "No."

"You can say no to this, and you can't say no to that. Could it be that the two of you can move your hands by yourself? Tell me honestly, who is it?" The dean got angry at the two unfriendly students, and his tone became more and more severe: "Chi Yue, is it you?!"

Chi Yue didn't blink his eyelids, his expression was almost indifferent, and he still said, "No."

"Fine, you guys," the director laughed angrily, "If you two don't explain, then don't go home tonight, stay in the office until you are willing to talk."

"Parents, please, record your demerits and write a self-criticism, and don't even think about running away."

Taking advantage of the time when the teaching director went out to smoke to relieve his anger, Su Xiu pulled Chi Yue aside and said in a low voice: "Chi Yue, you will admit it if you did it first, and if you admit it, it is a matter of writing a self-criticism. It is a demerit in school. It will affect your future, so don't disbelieve the teacher's words."

Chi Yue put his hands behind his back, his back was as straight as ever, but his head was lowered: "Teacher, it's really not me."

"Teacher, do you think it's me too?" Chi Yue looked at her.

"Of course I would like to believe you, but..."

Su Xiu didn't go on. Compared with Chi Yue, who was famous as a school bully, Zhou Shao was a good student with no blemishes. It was obvious which side the teachers would lean towards.

Chi Yue suddenly felt a little bored.

Whether it's wasting time here or something else, it's very boring, it's better to just admit it and turn over this page as soon as possible, but remembering what Lin Xi said, he licked his lips, but he still didn't open his mouth.

After school at 05:30, the two students stayed in the office until eight o'clock.

The students living in the school were still studying at night, and the lights in the classroom were all on. When Chi Yue looked out, he could see the windows of class one.

He squinted his eyes and saw the person standing outside the classroom. It was too far away to see clearly, but no matter how he looked at it, he thought it was Lin Qi.

Lin Qi looks so special, even his vague shadows are more special than others.

The next moment, he saw a person who seemed to be Lin Xi walking towards the office, and the distance was close, and he realized that his feeling was right, it was really him.

After a while, there was a knock on the office door.

"Enter." The dean replied while watching the video on his mobile phone.

"Hello, Director." Lin Qi opened the door and greeted politely.

"It's you." Facing the most outstanding student in the school, the director smiled, without any sign of anger just now: "What's the matter, what's the matter in the office?"

"I'll take a look at Chi Yue," Lin Qi said, "I want to know why he didn't go to the competition to coach."

The dean of Chi Yue's participation in the mathematics competition still knew about it. He pointed his finger and said, "You're being punished there. What's the use of studying well? You know how to cause trouble all day long!"

Lin Xi: "..."

He asked, "Why did you stand as a punishment?"

"They were fighting, but they still refused to tell the truth. I asked them who started it first, and if no one recognized it, I punished them to stand."

Lin Xi looked over meaningfully: "That's it."

Zhou Shao has been looking at him since he entered the office, and now he is looking at him, and his heart suddenly tightens.

He watched Lin Xi and Chi Yue playing in the snack street together yesterday, but the two of them never noticed him, and Lin Xi never seemed to see him.

He was jealous of Chi Yue, very jealous, how could this idiot who was against Lin Xi all day still reconcile with Lin Xi, and Lin Xili didn't want to talk to him?As soon as Lin Qi left, he couldn't bear it anymore and went to Chi Yue.

He was in the Ming Dynasty for four years, and it was clear where there was surveillance at the school gate and where it was not. It is impossible for the two of them to be recorded fighting, and Chi Yue's reputation is bad, no one would believe him.

That's how it should be.

He gritted his teeth.

"Director, I think there must be some misunderstanding here." Lin Qi took out a USB flash drive from his pocket, and said in a calm tone, "I just copied a video, and I want you to take a look."

Zhou Shao suddenly opened his eyes wide, staring closely at the black USB flash drive he took out.

The dean took it over: "Okay, let me take a look."

He inserted the U disk into the laptop, read and opened it, and the video window popped up immediately, playing the screen smoothly——

It was the whole process of the fight between Chi Yue and Zhou Shao.

Although the recorded picture is somewhat blurred due to the long distance, it is not difficult to see clearly that it was Zhou Shao who first grabbed Chi Yue's collar and dragged him aside.

The dean finished reading without saying a word, raised his head, and said to Lin Qi, "Thank you for your hard work."

Lin Qi shook his head: "It's not hard, thank you Director for trusting me."

"Chi Yue, you can leave first, hand in a [-]-word self-criticism to me tomorrow, and then invite your parents to come over."

Chi Yue responded indifferently, and when he walked past Zhou Shao, he asked in a low voice: "Do you know why Lin Xi doesn't like you?"

Zhou Shao clenched his fists tightly, the backs of his hands turned white.

"Let me tell you," Chi Yue laughed, but there was no smile, full of indifference and some kind of unclear provocation: "Because you are not only disgusting, but also useless."

Ms. Tang's resentment was higher than the mountains and deeper than the sea. Even when she got home, Lin Qi felt that there was still a 360-degree surround immersive cry in his ears.

The study pressure of the second year of high school was obviously much higher than that of the first year of high school. The focus was on the number of homework. He wrote mathematics first as usual. When he was about to finish writing, his phone vibrated, and the school bully finally got a reply.

Chi Yue: Here we are.

Lin Qi breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'm going to do my homework."
