Orange storm

Fang Jie’s alarm clock is 6:5 a.m., and the system’s default ringtone is the mechanical sound of “Didi”. As soon as it rang, Fang Jie frowned and stretched out his hand to cross it out.

After ringing the alarm clock, Fang Jie turned over and lay on the bed without moving, not even opening his eyes.

After a while, after lying down for about 5 minutes, Fang Jie said silently in his heart: "Three, two, one."

At the end of the countdown, Fang Jie opened his eyes, quickly got up and grabbed the clothes beside him to change.After the bed was made, Fang Jie picked up his phone, and the time jumped to 6:15.

Sure enough, Jiang Zhijin didn't get up. After Fang Jie washed up, he went to the kitchen to get the bread and milk he bought with Jiang Zhijin a few days ago. When he finished eating and packed up to go out, Jiang Zhijin's bedroom door opened.

Jiang Zhijin, with disheveled hair and pajamas, stood at the door of his bedroom and stared at Fang Jie who was about to go out. After a few seconds, he asked, "Do you want to see you off?"

Her voice was still hoarse, and "I didn't wake up" was written all over her body.

"No need." Fang Jie turned the door open, "I'll go by myself."

"Do you know how to take a bus? You first cross the road to the opposite bus stop, and then wait for 113—"

Fang Jie sighed, turned his head and looked at Jiang Zhijin expressionlessly.

Jiang Zhijin stopped, and the two looked at each other for four or five seconds, and he couldn't help laughing first.

"Okay, senior high school students who are about to grow up, let's go."

The morning self-study time of Shaojiang No. 7 Middle School is 10:10, 7 minutes later than Chaocheng.When Fang Jie arrived in the classroom at [-] o'clock sharp, only half of the people in the classroom were there, and more people came by stepping on their feet.

Xu Hang belonged to the group who stepped on the spot, and when the bell rang, he rushed to his seat and gasped for breath.

The English teacher came in just behind him, and gave Xu Hang an angry and funny look.

When he was out of breath, Fang Jie took out the notebook that Xu Hang lent him last night and handed it over.

"Thanks."

"You're welcome." Xu Hang took back his notebook, "But I can't remember all the notes, you may not understand."

I saw it last night. Some of the notes were out of logic, some had a paragraph without a paragraph, and some were written to resist sleepiness.

Without waiting for Fang Jie to reply, Xu Hang patted the back of the girl's chair at the table in front.

The girl in front turned around, she was a little fat girl with a baby face and fair skin, she glared at Xu Hang, but she had a smile on her face.

"what?"

"My most respected school committee member, Ms. Jiang Xinxin, please borrow my comprehensive notes."

"The sun is coming out from the west, you know how to study."

"No, I borrowed it from my deskmate."

Jiang Xinxin just glanced at Fang Jie, and handed over the note without saying anything.

"Look slowly, don't rush to use it."

Fang Jie took it and said "thank you".

English self-study in the morning, two English lessons, two mathematics lessons and one physics lesson in the morning.Fang Jiede met the other teachers.

The English teacher is a young female teacher who seems to have just graduated; the math teacher is a man, tall and thin; the physics teacher looks a bit older, a woman with a good temperament, and also quite strict.

The important thing is that although the teaching methods of several people are somewhat different from those in Chaocheng, they are still acceptable.

Even if Fang Jie is a top student, he is not the kind of fairy who says "I play truant and sleep and don't listen to lectures, but I still get the first place in my grade". He is just as important.What's more, the transfer was proposed by himself, and he must have the ability to bear the consequences.

So when he felt that he should be able to keep up after going all morning, Fang Jie was still relieved.

The last class is physics, and there are still 5 minutes before the end of the get out of class. There are already students from the next classroom rushing out to the cafeteria screaming. The sense of presence after class.In Fang Jie's class, the physics teacher just started talking about the last question.

"It's over, it's over," Xu Hang muttered in a low voice while looking at the blackboard, "The group of animals have already gone to the cafeteria, and my sweet and sour pork ribs are in danger."

As soon as he finished speaking, the physics teacher on the podium immediately said, "Xu Hang, why don't you tell me?"

Xu Hang immediately fell silent, bowed his head and pretended to be dead until get out of class was over.Fortunately, the teacher was also very fast in lecturing on the topic. He finished the lecture after a 2-minute class delay, and quickly said, "Okay, let's end get out of class."

When the teacher went out, Xu Hang jumped up quickly as if he was about to receive an amnesty, and raised his arms and called out: "Comrades, dinner is ready!"

After speaking, he turned his head to Fang Jie and said enthusiastically, "Let's go, at the same table, I will show you the most sacred place in Shaojiang No. [-] Middle School—the cafeteria."

Fang Jie: "...Oh."

Next, Xu Hang invited the neighbors to eat together with the same enthusiasm. Four or five boys walked side by side to the cafeteria, blocking half the way, looking like they were going to engage in some bad activities.

Fang Jie could see that Xu Hang should be the kind of carefree and kind-hearted guy. Although Fang Jie was afraid of trouble, he did not resist this kind of kindness——in an unfamiliar environment, it would be nice for someone to take the initiative to show kindness to you. A rare thing.

The cafeteria has two floors, and the variety is quite rich. They didn't go to the window to order vegetables, so they went upstairs and ordered rice bowls.Four or five adolescent boys had a lot of conversations when eating together. From the last time they played ball, they chatted about the start of school exams, and then the monthly exams at the end of the month. Finally, the topic turned to Fang Jie.

The boy sitting across from Fang Jie estimated that his grades were mediocre, and when he talked about the exam, he looked sad: "I never knew that the third year of senior high school had an exam every January, and it was too anti-human—why did you transfer to another school in the third year of high school, how much it will affect your studies? "

Fang Jie picked the green onions from the tomato scrambled eggs, and said without looking up: "I heard that the quality of teaching here is better."

The other party gave a clear "Oh": "Then your parents are quite hardworking, and they left just for the college entrance examination."

"They didn't come."

"Ah?" Xu Hang next to him looked shocked: "Your parents are not worried about you in a different place in the third year of high school?"

"Here's someone they know, a—"

Fang Jie wanted to say "Uncle" at first, but remembered that Jiang Zhijin said seriously last time that he would smack people if he mentioned these two words again.

"……elder brother."

After Fang Jie finished speaking, he was choked up, thinking that this was more suspicious of pretending to be tender than calling him uncle, but a group of people were looking at him, so he could only bite the bullet and repeat.

"A brother."

The legendary brother Jiang Zhijin sent Fang Jie out of the house and slept until the afternoon. After waking up hungry, he got up and ate two slices of bread. After taking a shower and dawdling for a while, it was almost nine o'clock when Jiang Zhijin drove to the bar. .

Gu Xun had already opened the door, business was going well today, Zhou Hong was saying something in front of a table of guests, Gu Xun was sitting behind the bar playing with his mobile phone, and looked up at him when he heard the door being pushed open.

"It's only now, where's Brother Fang Jie?"

"...going to school." Jiang Zhijin glanced at him, "What's your name?"

Gu Xun laughed and said, "It's really cool. When he came to see you, Tuesday and I were taken aback."

Jiang Zhijin sat in front of the bar, "What made you jump?"

"What do you think?" Gu Xun put down his phone, took a meaningful look at Jiang Zhijin, and smiled slightly: "Later, when I heard that he was underage in high school, I thought you shouldn't be so shameless."

Looking at each other, Jiang Zhijin narrowed his eyes and cursed, "Get out."

Gu Xun smiled and rolled over to pour him a glass of lemonade.

"Stop making trouble, you really want to take him to graduate from high school."

"Ah."

Seeing Gu Xun looking at him, Jiang Zhijin drank his saliva and slowly replied: "When his mother called me, her tone was really embarrassing. I guess something happened at home and I had to ask for help."

For Jiang Zhijin, the care of those years was no longer as simple as a favor, but a kindness that should be repaid.

"Don't be afraid of being misunderstood."

"There are not many people who know about me." The two talked like guessing a riddle, Jiang Zhijin smiled, "Besides, a kid, what's the misunderstanding?"

Gu Xun laughed for a full minute, as if his acupoints were tapped, and then he stopped laughing suddenly, raised his head and gestured behind Jiang Zhijin: "Of course I won't misunderstand, and someone who will misunderstand is here."

Jiang Zhijin followed his gaze and turned around to see a tall man in a black trench coat walking towards him.

Jiang Zhijin scolded "fuck" lightly, and Gu Xun laughed again. With just this effort, the man had already arrived at the bar, sat next to Jiang Zhijin and called out "Boss Jiang."

Jiang Zhijin sighed heavily in his heart, his face and mouth were quite polite: "Brother Yan."

The windbreaker man's surname is Li, and his name is Li Xingyan. He is a frequent visitor to Jiang Zhijin's bar. He seems to be an executive of a bank. The other Jiang Zhijin don't know, and have never asked.The first time the two met was in "Cloud Seven". Li Xingyan was drinking with someone. Somehow they chatted. The other party suddenly slapped Li Xingyan in full view and then turned away. Jiang Zhijin asked Gu Xun to take it for the other party. ice packs.

It was only later that Jiang Zhijin found out that he was Li Xingyan's boyfriend, and he had just finished talking about breaking up.On the other hand, Li Xingyan remembered Jiang Zhijin, and would come over to sit when he was free.

Li Xingyan nodded to Gu Xun to say hello, ordered a glass of dark beer, then looked at Jiang Zhijin and smiled.

"Long time no see, Boss Jiang."

The visitor was a guest, and Jiang Zhijin was very polite: "Is there any, maybe I've been a little busy recently."

Li Xingyan leaned on the bar with one hand, and his eyes were very focused when he tilted his head to look at Jiang Zhijin. "Oh, I thought you didn't want to see me."

"Not at all." Jiang Zhijin smiled, "We're all friends."

Li Xingyan took a sip of his wine, and then said, "I want to climb a mountain this weekend, do you want to come with Boss Jiang? The autumn scenery of Xishan Mountain is not bad."

"I won't go, I have something to do on the weekend."

Li Xingyan seemed to have expected that Jiang Zhijin would say this a long time ago, he shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly, and looked at Jiang Zhijin's persuasive tone: "It's so boring to be alone, why don't you give yourself a chance to meet others."

Jiang Zhijin's expression didn't change: "It's really something, I have to take care of the children at home."

Li Xingyan: "... what?"

"The child at home is still studying, so I have to stay with him at home on weekends."

Li Xingyan: "..."

Over the years, Li Xingyan has visited countless people, and when he didn't believe that he would still miss him, he smiled in disbelief: "Whose child, why is it still living with you?"

"Our child." Jiang Zhijin looked at Li Xingyan, the corner of his mouth seemed to be curved: "My son."

Gu Xun, who was bartending next to him, made a "bang bang" and almost dropped his glass. Li Xingyan was a little unsure if Jiang Zhijin was joking, so he smiled a little, but his tone was natural: "Is Boss Jiang joking with me, or is he joking?" I really lost my sight."

Jiang Zhijin didn't answer, just looked down at the time with a smile, and nodded slightly at the other party: "Stop talking, I have to pick up the kids from school."

He stood up from his seat and beckoned to Gu Xun: "Brother Yan, I'll take this drink." He strode out of the bar.

Fang Jie: I call you brother outside, but you call me son outside?
