In the dark and damp basement, a skinny body was curled up, with sunken cheeks and sunken eyes. He was as thin as a skeleton in his twenties. The door was opened, and a beam of light shone in. He squinted his eyes and looked out. , Seeing that the person who came in was Zhou Yuanbai, he immediately stretched out his arms and crawled towards the door, and hugged Zhou Yuanbai's calf, "I promise I won't frame Lin Yueyue again, can you let me go?"

Zhou Yuanbai knelt down, pinched his chin, gritted his teeth and said, "Stop dreaming, you will just fend for yourself in this basement for the rest of your life." Zhou Yuanbai pushed his arm away, stood up, and said arrogantly: "I came to tell you , the kind-hearted Mr. Liang went bankrupt, and now he is a street mouse that everyone shouts and beats. The beautiful queen Wang Meiying was cheated by Xiao Xianrou a few days ago and committed suicide for a while. Are you happy about this good news?"

"No! No! Zhou Yuanbai, I have loved you for so many years, why did you treat me like this?" He lay on the ground and roared with all his might.

Zhou Yuanbai ignored him, turned around and walked out.

He crawled over, "Yuan Bai don't go, can you take a look at me......"

The only response to him was the cold closing of the door.

Liang Jing suddenly opened his eyes, the surroundings were pitch black, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat. He touched the switch and turned on the light, and then he came out of the nightmare completely. He got out of bed, washed his face, and gradually calmed down. From that day on, he completely ignored him, no matter what he did, Zhou Yuanbai would turn a blind eye, Liang Jing was puzzled, couldn't find the reason and began to have nightmares, most of the dreams were scenes of the original owner's tragic death.

Half a month has passed, and Liang Jingkuai has a nervous breakdown like this, how can he offend the boss?He thought about what happened that day twice again. Before going out in the morning, he saw the milk in the living room, picked it up casually, and gave it to his classmates to drink with him at school. How could such a simple matter offend Zhou Yuanbai?In an instant, he remembered that the day before the distribution of milk, Zhou Yuanbai had also given the same type of milk, but the boss would not be angry because of this.

Liang Jing yawned and walked downstairs, Zhou Yujuan mother and son sat on the sofa looking down at things, laughing and talking in low voices.

Seeing Liang Jing approaching, Zhou Yujuan quickly got up, "The young master is awake, I'll serve dinner."

Zhang Nuan was wearing a dress and walked around in front of Liang Jing, "Brother Jing, good morning."

Liang Jing: "..."

He sincerely admired Zhang Nuan's forgetfulness. Looking down, Zhang Nuan was wearing a pair of new brand-name shoes, no wonder he was so happy.

After the meal was set, Zhou Yuanbai came out of the room, and the four of them sat down. Zhang Nuan took the initiative to serve Zhou Yujuan a meal, "I like the new shoes very much, thank you mom."

"If you want to thank me, learn more from your second brother and save me some trouble." Zhou Yujuan's tone was critical, but her eyes were full of doting.

Zhang Nuan was in a good mood, and didn't sneer at Zhou Yuanbai. She took the new shoe box and put it next to Zhou Yuanbai, "Mom bought these for you."

Zhou Yujuan: "Try to see if it fits."

When the shoe box was opened, a pungent rubber smell wafted out, Zhang Nuan frowned in disgust, "These shoes smell really good."

Zhou Yujuan gave Zhang Nuan a sneaky look, and said to Zhou Yuanbai, "It's normal for new shoes to smell, so try them out."

Zhou Yuanbai picked up the new shoes and put them on, "The size is just right, thank you Mom."

Zhou Yujuan smiled, "Throw away those old shoes that have been worn for almost two years, and wear new shoes to school on Monday."

Zhou Yuanbai didn't show any emotion, and bowed his head to eat after he got down.

Liang Jing watched the mother and the child the whole time, and soon realized something was wrong. The shoes of Zhang Nuan and Zhou Yuanbai were of the same brand at first glance, and the shoe boxes were exactly the same, but the shoes they took out were completely different.

The quality of Zhang Nuan’s shoes is obviously better than Zhou Yuanbai’s. If you look closely at the brand logo, Zhou Yuanbai’s shoes have obvious breaks on the logo. They are knockoffs or low-grade knockoffs, and the price is much lower than Zhang Nuan’s shoes.

Zhou Yujuan's family is supported by Zhou Yuanbai's father, but they are so harsh on Zhou Yuanbai. Maybe no one in ordinary schools cares about the shoes they are wearing. In Yiguang shoes, everyone compares them. If Zhou Yuanbai wears these shoes to class, he will definitely be ridiculed. People have always disliked Zhou Yuanbai, if they saw this pair of shoes, they would use it as a laughing stock and publicize it everywhere.

These inconspicuous little things in adolescence are small factors in the formation of Zhou Yuanbai's character, and they will eventually explode in adulthood after a long period of time. Preventing these little things from happening will be good for tool people like them in the future.

Zhou Yuanbai doesn't know his life experience now, he has always been grateful to Zhou Yujuan, and feels guilty towards Zhang Nuan, so he can't tell Zhou Yuanbai about this matter directly, he can only start with Zhou Yujuan.

Liang Jing went to the mall to buy two pairs of limited-edition sneakers, and called Zhou Yujuan when he got home, "Buy one and get one free for an event in the mall, I can't wear two pairs, so give this pair to Zhou Yuanbai."

Zhou Yujuan stared at the new shoes in the box with bright eyes, "Thank you, young master."

"You're welcome...Auntie should know that Zhou Yuanbai hates me, so don't tell him beforehand."

"Okay, it's all up to you." Zhou Yujuan fondled the pair of shoes, and occasionally looked up at Liang Jing, hesitant to speak.

"Aunt Zhou, is there anything else?"

"Young master...do you still have this kind of shoes as a gift? Also give a pair to my elder brother. He has a girlfriend recently and needs some good clothes."

It turned out that the reason for not leaving was this.

There are many luxury items bought by the original owner in the cloakroom, some of which have not been opened, but Liang Jing doesn't want to give them away, "I'm sorry, Aunt Zhou, only this pair."

"Old ones are fine, my elder brother doesn't pick them in his hometown."

"A few days ago, I tidied things up and threw away all the old ones."

Zhou Yujuan still didn't leave, "I'm a person who watched the young master grow up, and I have a sentence that has been held back in my aunt's mind for a long time. I was afraid that you would not like it and kept silent."

Liang Jing wanted to see what Zhou Yujuan was going to do, and said in a friendly tone, "Auntie, you have something to say, you're welcome."

"I know that Yuan Bai is good-looking, and you young people like him, other aunts don't care, but President Liang is only your son, and he will inherit the family business in the future. You should know that two men can't have children together when you are old. I will never agree, there are many girls like Xiaonuan who are as good as you in appearance, why bother to be obsessed with a boy."

It turned out that he was selling his daughter.

Liang Jing: "Auntie, don't worry too much, I don't like Zhou Yuanbai long ago."

"I've been in Liang's house all these years, and I've treated you like my own child. Auntie can rest assured that you will know where you are going. Xiaonuan also treats you as her own brother, and often tells me how good you are."

Liang Jing couldn't take it anymore, "Auntie doesn't seem to know her daughter very well. Zhang Nuan doesn't like me. You heard it with your own ears when she accused Sang and Huai of being a pervert last time at the dinner table."

Zhou Yujuan laughed awkwardly, "She is young, ignorant and impulsive, and she always tells me how good you are."

Liang Jing yawned deliberately, "I'm still young, so I don't think about personal issues for the time being. Is there anything else, auntie?"

Zhou Yujuan left knowingly.

After closing the door, Liang Jing shook his head helplessly.

On Monday morning, Zhou Yuanbai wore the shoes bought by Zhou Yujuan.

Liang Jing stepped forward to ask the reason tactfully, but Zhou Yuan ignored him, Liang Jing couldn't bear it anymore, and stepped forward to block the way, "It's really rude to keep ignoring people like this."

Zhou Yuanbai pushed his arm away and walked forward, "I'm just a rude and tasteless person, stay away from me in the future."

Liang Jing chased after him, "Hey! It's been half a month, what's going on with you?"

"I'm fine, and I don't need friends, please stay away from me."

Liang Jing stopped chasing forward, "Okay! I will be far away from you in the future, please be happy Zhou Yuanbai."

The gloom in Zhou Yuanbai's eyes filled again, but his footsteps gradually slowed down, but the people behind him didn't keep up.

As Liang Jing expected, the counterfeit shoes soon became a hot topic of discussion in the class. Some people pointed at Zhou Yuanbai, but he didn't seem to care. Yin An was busy with basketball games recently, so he didn't pay much attention to it. If they come out to make trouble, other small fish and shrimp can't make waves, Liang Jing doesn't care.

During the lunch break, Liang Jing and Wen Yiran sat under the tree beside the playground to rest. Wen Yiran pushed Liang Jing with his elbow, "Do you know Zhou Yuanbai's shoes?"

Not only did he know, he saw Zhou Yuanbai receive the whole process of these shoes with his own eyes, and tried to stop it but unfortunately it failed. Why didn't Zhou Yuanbai wear those genuine new shoes?Liang Jing told Wen Yiran what happened.

Wen Yiran: "You can't ask Zhou Yuanbai directly, you can ask Zhang Nuan, as a member of their family, Zhang Nuan may know the situation, let's go and ask."

During the lunch break, Zhang Nuan's class was not crowded, and he could see the end at a glance from the door, and several girls chatted around Zhang Nuan.

Zhang Nuan: "This shoe is a limited edition, my mother just bought it for my elder brother."

Female classmate: "These shoes are very difficult to buy. My brother couldn't find them a few days ago. Where did your mother buy them?"

Zhang Nuan: "My mother is fine during the day, she often hangs out with her little sisters, who knows where I saw it in the mall, I will ask her when I go back and tell you."

Female classmate: "My mother is also like this. You can let them add friends and go shopping together if they have nothing to do."

Zhang Nuan's smile felt unnatural for a moment, "Okay, but my mother is tired of being a full-time wife and said she wants to go to work."

Wen Yiran and Liang Jing left before they finished listening.

Wen Yiran said on the road: "The truth is out, the shoes were given to his elder brother by Zhou Yuanbai's mother... How could she give the shoes you gave Zhou Yuanbai to others without permission?"

Liang Jing thought that Zhou Yuanbai didn't want to wear them, so he didn't think about Zhou Yujuan. He never expected it to be like this, "I'll go home tonight and get the shoes back."

"Brother Zhou Yuanbai isn't with us, is he?"

"Well, I'm at my hometown."

"I guess the shoes have already been mailed to my hometown. Is it possible to go to their hometown for a pair of shoes? Let's buy another pair. Zhou Yuanbai's mother has taken care of you for so many years. If you don't have any credit, you have to work hard. It's a gift for her."

People who don't know the truth have the impression of Zhou Yujuan as being simple and kind. Wen Yiran took the initiative to speak for her, and Liang Jing was helpless, "It's not about a pair of shoes."

Wen Yiran was puzzled: "What is that?"

Hateing that the book transmigrator couldn't disclose the setting of the plot, Liang Jing could only sigh silently and think of a way by himself, "It's nothing, I'll just buy another pair."

After solving this small problem, the two went to physical education class, Wen Yiran was full of excitement, while Liang Jing looked sad, not interested in playing basketball, and sat alone to watch the game.

The physical education teacher selected two teams to compete, and the other students watched from the sidelines. Zhou Yuanbai rarely appeared in group activities. He and Wen Yiran were on one team, and Yin An and others were on the other team.

The girls shouted loudly the names of their favorite team members, and Zhou Yuanbai was the loudest, not only because of his outstanding looks, but also because he seldom participated in group activities.

"Zhou Yuanbai!"

"Zhou Yuanbai come on!"

"..."

The shouts came one after another, and the girls who usually spoke softly turned into small trumpets, frequently interrupting Liang Jing's thinking about the problem. He looked up at the basketball court.

Zhou Yuanbai took off his school uniform jacket, revealing his thin arms, holding the basketball with slender fingers and well-defined joints. When he jumped up to shoot, the cold white skin of his neck raised a vein. The beautiful three-pointer received thunderous applause, and even the physical education teachers followed suit.

When all the staff were boiling, Liang Jing noticed Yin An's expression. He was not angry or unhappy, but a slightly smug smile. According to Yin An's temperament in the past, he was the first to be upset when Zhou Yuan was in the limelight. How could he laugh? It's a bit abnormal .

After Zhou Yuanbai was forced to apologize, Yin An got carried away with complacency, and whenever he got the chance, he went over to sneer, but Zhou Yuanbai always ignored him, Yin An couldn't find a chance to make a big move, there must be a monster if something goes wrong, Yin An behaved very abnormally today, Liang Jing couldn't tell what Yin An was thinking. In order to prevent accidents, he sat in the first row of the auditorium.

The whistle sounded, and the two teams entered the game state again. Zhou Yuanbai was always focused on his work and did not pay attention to other things. Otherwise, Liang Jing stared at Yin An the whole time, not letting go of Yin An's every little move. Sure enough, when the two teams were fighting for the ball, , Yin An took advantage of Zhou Yuanbai's inattention, and stepped on the label of Zhou Yuanbai's white shoes. The logo of the counterfeit product was not attached tightly. In addition, Yin An deliberately used force, and the logo was trampled. Half of the glue was exposed, and half was stuck to the shoe.

"I'm sorry." Yin An apologized loudly, quickly attracting many attentions.

The physical education teacher walked over, "What's going on?"

Yin An apologized: "I couldn't stop stepping on Zhou Yuanbai's shoes."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zhou Yuanbai bent down and tore off the logo on the shoes, "It's okay, let's continue."

The physical education teacher looked at Yin An, "It is inevitable to have bumps and bumps in playing basketball, just keep on playing with trivial matters."

Yin An stood still, and sarcastically said in a long voice, "Oh? The shoe label can be torn off easily, but it is really a good pair of shoes. I have never seen such shoes. Let me see what brand it is." He Picking up the logo on the ground, "What's the sign of a gap in the middle? Can you tell everyone where you bought it? I'll buy a pair tomorrow too."

Someone behind Yin An laughed.

The physical education teacher didn't understand, so, "You can ask about such trivial matters after class, and compete first."

Zhou Yuanbai's expression did not change, he picked up the ball and prepared to continue the game, but Yin An refused to let go, stepped forward to snatch the basketball back, and said in a bad tone: "Are you deaf? May I ask where you bought your shoes? Do you dare to wear them?" explain?"

Zhou Yuanbai's indifferent eyes showed a layer of anger, he suddenly approached Yin An, and whispered a warning in his ear: "Don't be endless."

Turning around to leave, Yin An stepped forward and grabbed his wrist, taunting him loudly, "Yo! It turns out that the abstinent and cold school girl Yiguang dared not admit that she was wearing fake shoes in public, and secretly begged me to stop talking."

Liang Jing personally promised in front of Zhou Yuanbai in the morning to stay away from him in the future. He was afraid of being annoying and didn't want to participate in Zhou Yuanbai's affairs in public. He had been watching the battle silently, but he couldn't listen to Yin An's words. "If you don't want to compete, don't delay others. Yin An should stop when it's too late."

A girl in the crowd responded: "It's up to you what shoes people wear, if you don't want to compete, just get out."

Hearing the girls helping Zhou Yuanbai speak to Yin An, Yin An was even more angry, and gave the classmate standing behind Zhou Yuanbai a look, and then said eccentrically, "Master Liang's old love has rekindled?" Yin An looked at Liang Jing while speaking, but stretched out his fist towards Zhou Yuanbai.

Zhou Yuanbai wanted to fight back, but his body was tightly hugged by the students behind him, unable to move.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Liang Jing pointed at Zhou Yuanbai and the classmates behind him and pushed hard. The two were pushed aside, and their fists hit Liang Jing's face, causing him to gasp in pain.

Yin An didn't expect Liang Jing to come over, so he panicked for a moment, "What... are you here for?"

Seeing the red mark on Liang Jing's face, the physical education teacher became anxious, "During class, you caused trouble and fights, disturbed other students in class, come and follow me to see your head teacher."

Yin An put his arms around Liang Jing's neck, "Teacher, I'm just playing around with Liang Jing, so I won't make trouble with the class teacher."

Liang Jing pushed Yin An away, "No one is messing with you."

Facing Zhou Yuanbai, Yin An dared to turn the truth upside down, but he didn't dare to face Liang Jing. After being scolded by the teacher in charge, he obediently apologized to Liang Jing. Afterwards, he took the initiative to ask Liang Jing out for dinner to apologize, but Liang Jing ignored him.

When the table was set at home, Zhou Yujuan's mother and daughter were not there, Liang Jing and Zhou Yuanbai ate silently face to face, their faces were burning with pain, Liang Jing inadvertently "hissed".

Zhou Yuanbai never said a word to him, as if the punch was for someone else, Liang Jing could only comfort himself to pay the debt for the original owner.

After the meal, Liang Jing got up and was about to go back to the room, Zhou Yuanbai suddenly called him to stop, Liang Jing said in a bad mood, "What are you doing?"

Zhou Yuanbai pointed to the sofa, "Sit there and wait for me."

Liang Jing choked back: "Why did you sit there and wait for you? You said that you don't need friends to keep you away from me." The anger accumulated these days vented out all at once.

Zhou Yuanbai said lightly: "It's fine if you don't wait." After speaking, he turned and went back to his room.

Liang Jing: "..."

After venting his grievances, he was not so angry anymore, Liang Jing thought about it, and sat on the sofa.

Zhou Yuanbai came out with the medicine box. Seeing that Liang Jing was waiting for him, he was not surprised. He sat down and took out the anti-swelling ointment, dipped a cotton swab into the ointment and gently applied it on Liang Jing's face. Looking at the red and swollen skin, he clenched his back teeth, " Don't help me next time."

Hearing this, Liang Jingcai recovered from the boss's change, "I really don't like you anymore, I can't even be a friend? You just hate me that much?"

Zhou Yuanbai did not answer Liang Jing's question, but said, "I will solve it myself."

Liang Jing turned around and pushed away Zhou Yuanbai's hand that was applying the medicine. Just as he was about to speak, a cold voice came from above his head, "Don't move."

Liang Jing froze subconsciously. Zhou Yuan pressed his head with his bare hands and turned his head back to the original position, continuing to apply the medicine. "I will solve it in my own way, because my mother was there last time."

"The situation of Yin An's family is complicated." Before Liang Jing finished speaking, there was a burst of chattering laughter from the door.

"Brother's new girlfriend is so pretty, she will definitely like this dress." Zhang Nuan and Zhou Yujuan came in carrying big bags.

Seeing that they were carrying shopping bags, Liang Jing got angry and got up to ask Zhou Yujuan about her shoes, but Zhou Yuanbai grabbed her, "The medicine hasn't been wiped off yet, don't move around."

Zhou Yujuan's mother and son were stunned when they saw the scene of applying the medicine.

Liang Jing felt uncomfortable being watched, and pushed Zhou Yuanbai away again, "It doesn't hurt anymore, let's do it like this."

Zhou Yuanbai didn't seem to hear him, he pressed him and applied the medicine unhurriedly before letting go.

When Liang Jing passed by Zhou Yujuan, he said, "Aunt Zhou, please go upstairs, I have something to tell you."

Zhou Yujuan rolled her eyes, stepped forward to hold Liang Jing, and said with a smile, "I also have something to say, why don't you listen to me first." She looked at Zhou Yuanbai, "Yuanbai, you can move to the second floor tonight , help the young master with his homework."

Liang Jing: "..."

The author has something to say:
