bad kid

There are many repercussions of going public with a relationship.

The good thing is that the rotten peach blossoms of the two of them are much less.

The bad thing is that someone picked out Yan Ning's school, and some paparazzi broke in through the school's outer wall, chased and intercepted Yan Ning, interviewed her classmates, and snooped on her private life.

Yan Yue asked Yan Ning seriously: "Should I transfer you to another school? Europe or North America are fine. If you go abroad, you will have much less trouble."

"No need," Yan Ning said calmly, "I will handle it myself."

The next day, when the paparazzi took another sneak shot between classes, Yan Ning, who had always presented herself as a cold-faced goddess, suddenly covered her face and burst into tears in front of a room full of teachers and students.

She whimpered and said that she couldn't bear it anymore. She came to school to study, to make friends with classmates, and to gain knowledge from teachers, but now she was followed and secretly photographed by people she didn't know every day, and she had no privacy.

The paparazzi even rummaged through her desk after school and secretly took pictures of her homework in order to get news.

She is a 14-year-old girl, why should she suffer such bullying?

Before the words fell, the crowd was excited.

The girls rushed up to comfort them, and the boys' heroism broke out. They picked up brooms and feather dusters, blocked the paparazzi who fled in panic at the entrance of the corridor, and beat them up.

Afterwards, the teacher also seriously reported to the school, requesting that school safety inspections be strengthened, and it is strictly forbidden for people outside the school to enter the campus without authorization.

The video was posted on the Internet, and major media followed up and reported on it, paying attention to the privacy issues of underage children.

Some people also found out that the platform to which the paparazzi belonged had used unscrupulous means to distort the facts a few years ago for the sake of traffic, and spread rumors that a certain child star was taking hormones, causing the child star to be severely depressed.

All of a sudden, paparazzi and its platform were pushed to the forefront.

In the end, the person in charge of the platform sent a video apology in person, saying that he would immediately rectify the atmosphere in the department and expel the reporter at the same time, and the public opinion gradually subsided.

No paparazzi reporter dared to go to school to take pictures.

Some night a few days later.

After Ruan Zhimu flipped through the news, he asked Yan Ning seriously: "Will the acting be too much?"

Yan Ning's expression remained calm: "Isn't it normal for an underage girl to break down and cry after being followed and secretly photographed?"

Yan Yue suggested to Yan Ning: "Next time you can't cry, you can put some eye drops or eat some mustard. I see those little models do this."

The three looked at each other and smiled.

-

In the new year, Yan Ning is about to enter high school.

Yan Ning was admitted to a key international high school in City S, which was a little far away from home, but rather close to her original apartment.

More than ten years ago, when they first met again, Yan Yue lived in an apartment in a high-end community.

Later they got married, adopted Yan Ning, and lived in a brand new and beautiful duplex villa, but Yan Yue did not sell the old house, nor did he move his things to the new home.

The apartment has kept its original appearance for more than ten years.

Now that more than ten years have passed, the housing price has doubled, and Yan Yue still shows no signs of selling the old house.

Ruan Zhimu and Yan Yue discussed whether they would take Yan Ning to live in the apartment, which would be close and save renting a house.

Yan Ning has her own idea: "I'll just live in the apartment by myself. You usually have to go to work. If you live in an apartment, the commute time will be longer, which is unnecessary. If you are worried, let Aunt Li live with me. She usually helps me cook, cook and wash clothes.”

Aunt Li is one of the nannies who brought Yan Ning up since she was a child. She is a gentle and diligent middle-aged woman in the south.

Ruan Zhimu was a bit reluctant, but this was indeed the most appropriate solution.

In the end, the three of them reached an agreement and let Aunt Li and Yan Ning live in the apartment for the time being.

Before the apartment is used, it should always be dusted, ventilated, and cleaned.

They haven't set foot in the apartment for more than a decade.

Unscrewing the doorknob again, the familiar picture came into view, the same as it was more than ten years ago.

The windows in the house are tightly closed, and most of the furniture is covered with dust covers, so there is not much dust.

It's just that it's been too long, and it has a slight dry and stale musty smell.

Aunt Li skillfully opened the windows to ventilate and clean the dust, and told them to sit still, saying that the house was quite clean, and it would be fine after a little cleaning.

Yan Ning came to the apartment for the first time, looked left and right curiously, and looked surprised at everything she saw.

At this time, she broke away from her usual cold and calm appearance, and she really looked like a girl in her teens.

He looked around from room to room, asking a question or two from time to time.

"This is the study room? Why are there no books... Oh, many of them have moved to the studio?"

"The color of the curtains is a bit earthy, such a common beige color... Is this the aesthetics of more than ten years ago?"

"The bed in the bedroom is pretty big. I want to sleep in the one with the blue sheets."

"Hey, why are there footprints on this wall... have you two fought here before?"

Ruan Zhimu carefully identified it for a while, but couldn't remember which time he kicked it.

However, it was so intense that it kicked footprints on the wall... not many times.

Most likely during the time when they just met again, the two of them couldn't figure out each other's mind, they were emotionally overwhelmed, and they fought every day.

Once there is a battle, things will suffer.

Sometimes the walls are kicked dirty.

Sometimes the buttons of the clothes were pulled off, and the clothes were torn to pieces.

Sometimes he was hugged and kissed by Yan Yue on the table, and all the pens, rulers, pencils, and erasers on the table were swept off the table and rolled all over the floor.

……

Looking back now, Ruan Zhimu still feels a little hot.

Yan Yue's expression was calm: "Children, don't inquire about adults' affairs."

Yan Ning curled her lips and continued to walk forward.

She suddenly let out a "huh" and said, "There is a room that cannot be opened."

Ruan Zhimu followed the prestige and saw a small closed room at the innermost side of the corridor. The wooden door was dark brown and thick.

Other rooms are keyholes, but this small room is a combination lock.

Long-lasting memories vaguely floated up from the depths of his mind.

He remembered that this small room...

Yan Yue suddenly coughed heavily.

His expression was a little unnatural, and he grabbed his pants unconsciously, and said to Yan Ning: "It's just a small warehouse, it hasn't been used for a long time."

Yan Ning looked at her father keenly: "What's in it? Photographic equipment?"

Yan Yue: "...about the same."

Yan Ning: "Then why can't you open it and show it to me?"

Yan Yue: "...forgot the password."

Yan Ning: "Then you can smash the door lock and change the lock. You can't keep opening it for the rest of your life. It's a waste of such a large space."

Yan Yue: "..."

Seeing this, Ruan Zhimu said to Yan Ning: "Go and see Aunt Li and ask her if she needs any help. If there is any cleaning agent and rags, we will drive to buy them right away."

Yan Ning let out an oh, and went downstairs.

Yan Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

Ruan Zhimu turned to look at him: "Now we can talk."

Yan Yue: "..."

He was a little helpless: "I thought you helped me out."

Ruan Zhimu: "Saving face for you in front of your daughter doesn't mean I'm not curious."

He remembered.

He was very curious about this small room when we first met again, but Yan Yue never opened it, and then he forgot about it.

What made Yan Yue so nervous was probably something important in the room.

safe?bullion?Jewelry play?

……possible.

But it doesn't seem right.

Looking at Yan Yue's appearance, he seemed a little flustered and embarrassed, as if there was something shameful in the room.

That is……

Failed papers when studying?Private nude photos taken when you were young?Immature works?Secret porn collection?

Ruan Zhimu suppressed a smile and expressed his guess.

Yan Yue's face darkened: "I am so wretched in your heart?"

"It's just watching a movie, what's so obscene," Ruan Zhimu was very forgiving, "You tell the truth, I won't despise you."

Yan Yue hesitated, still not wanting to say anything.

Before changing, Ruan Zhimu might not be so persistent.

If you don't want to say it, don't say it, who hasn't kept a secret yet.

But now the relationship between him and Yan Yue is so familiar with each other's breathing rate, he really can't think of what else Yan Yue doesn't know, so he is very curious.

Ruan Zhimu rolled his eyes and said, "If you don't tell me, I can't force you to..."

Yan Yue breathed a sigh of relief quietly.

Ruan Zhimu changed the subject and said, "But you seem to owe me something."

Yan Yue: "?"

Ruan Zhimu said quietly: "Do you still remember the three questions at that time? I used up two and left one."

Yan Yue's pupils dilated instantly.

Ruan Zhimu smiled and said, "I didn't expect that I would still remember this? Let me tell you, I have a good memory. I've been remembering it for more than ten years. I'm just waiting for the day when I catch your pigtail and put it in my hands immediately." Use up the opportunity."

At that time, Yan Yue was still in high school, and he was still Yan Yue's guardian.

Yan Yue promised him that he would give him three opportunities to ask questions, and he would definitely tell the truth.

He had used two in the past, and now he has one left.

Yan Yue struggled for a few minutes, and finally sighed helplessly under his triumphant gaze.

He turned around and slowly entered a series of numbers on the door lock.

The door opened.

Ruan Zhimu immediately poked his head excitedly, but the scene in front of him surprised him.

There are no high-end and tight safes, precious gold and jade, and the like.

In the middle of the room, there is a plastic box, which is the kind of translucent box commonly used by students to pack books. It is very light and not easy to damage.

There seemed to be some books-like things inside, and the outline of the paper could be vaguely seen from the outside of the box.

Yan Yue opened the door, but did not go in, but stood at the door, looking down at him.

"If you want to see it, just go and see it yourself."

Ruan Zhimu was a little dazed, but walked in anyway.

He bent over the box and slowly opened the white plastic cover.

——In the box, there were stacks of thick stacks of borrowing certificates.

When Ruan Zhimu was still studying at University A, the person in charge of the library was a very old man, a retired teacher from the university.

He has the stubbornness of a literati in the old days, he is used to handwriting, and he is not used to modern electronic equipment.

At that time, the library had been connected to the electronic system, but the old man was still accustomed to the old way of borrowing books. He required students to have paper records when borrowing books, and clearly recorded the borrowing time, borrower's name, student number of the department, and the title of the book. clearly.

When Ruan Zhimu was in college, he often went to the library to borrow professional books, and occasionally borrowed martial arts novels about love, hate, swords, swords, and shadows.

I have heard the staff complain several times, saying that they have to copy the records by hand every time, and they are exhausted.

There are hundreds of book loan certificates in the box.

Different dates, different handwriting, each certificate has at least [-] borrowing records.

But no matter which one, they all have one thing in common——

Among the borrowers, there is a "Ruan Zhimu".

Ruan Zhimu's chest was choked, he raised his head suddenly, and stared at Yan Yue in a daze.

Yan Yue looked at him quietly: "You know, I worked as a volunteer in the library when I was in college."

Ruan Zhimu's throat was stagnant: "You, you are for..."

Yan Yue seemed a little embarrassed, but still whispered:

"Stupid, isn't it?—I'm just here to collect, all the proofs of your existence."

"After the library is fully digitized, all paper certificates will be thrown away, and I will bring them back one by one."

Ruan Zhimu was silent for a moment, grabbed the piece of paper in his hand, and suddenly took a few steps forward, throwing himself into the man's arms.

Yan Yue was a little surprised, but his arms subconsciously caught him firmly.

The two listened to each other's breathing and heartbeat.

One action is enough, no more words are needed.

The sun is shining outside the window, and the spring flowers are blooming inside the house.
