Crush in marriage

Shi Xun was forcibly taken back to the office by the principal and other teachers.

His mind was in chaos, and the voices around him seemed to be wrapped in water, separated by a haze.

The atmosphere was so stuffy, the principal slapped the table angrily and said, "Who can tell me what's going on!"

In a fit of rage, Zheng Lu spoke first.

He insisted on justifying himself with a voice that was slurred by the beating: "I'm sorry, teacher, I had some conflicts with Song Qiuqiu. Shi Xun has always hated me, so he used me as an excuse to bully Song Qiuqiu to attack me."

As he spoke, he secretly gave Song Qiuqiu a threatening look.

Qiuqiu's back trembled, and the words that came to his mouth were torn into pieces, turning into mosquito noises of unknown meaning.

Shi Xun couldn't speak, so he stepped forward and dragged someone to continue beating him.

The teacher on the side stopped him: "That's enough, if you have something to say, then you will be expelled immediately!"

Shi Xun seemed to be tough, but in fact he had long been overdrawn to the outside world. He took half a step back and leaned against the cabinet beside him.

The blood dried and clotted between the backs of his hands, restricting his movements like a spider web.

He tried to talk about the situation just now, but couldn't speak at all.

After hesitating, another teacher entered the principal's office: "Principal, the surveillance video is here."

Hearing the word "monitoring", Zheng Lu's face turned blue.

The teacher walked to the computer at the direction of the principal and inserted the USB drive.

The monitoring is automatically played, and the reflection on the teacher's glasses is not very clear.

The principal rolled up his sleeves and approached the computer: "Okay, I won't say anything, then I'll see for myself."

He pointed to the screen and directed: "Pull the progress bar, when should I see it? Start watching it 5 minutes after the last class."

Watching surveillance is indeed more convincing than any rhetoric, but it also means that Qiuqiu's embarrassing situation will be seen by more people.

Without waiting for Shi Xun to stand up, Qiuqiu stepped forward first, and anxiously stopped him: "Teacher, can you stop watching? It was Zheng Lu who said he liked me, but he wanted to force him if he couldn't entangle him. Shi Xun just happened to pass by and saw..."

On the computer screen, the monitoring was still playing, showing the rapid development of the situation at double speed, and a scene that shocked the teachers.

Shi Xunyan quickly pressed the power button of the computer.

Recording stopped.

The teachers looked at each other in blank dismay, the original anger seemed to be flattened by cement and sealed tightly.

Shi Xun grabbed the principal's cuff: "You will help Qiuqiu, right?"

The headmaster's eyes flickered, and the corners of his mouth curled up stiffly: "This matter is not as simple as you think."

"Ms. Zhang." The principal pressed his wrist and pushed it down, "Take him to the infirmary first."

Sensitive Shi Xun quickly noticed something was wrong. He grabbed the principal's arm firmly to prevent the palm from sliding down: "Are you trying to send me away?"

The principal was noncommittal: "Their affairs are beyond your control, go ahead."

Shi Xun's eyes widened suddenly, and he squeezed harder: "I'm gone, how do you plan to deal with this matter?"

The principal raised his hand upwards, and Shi Xun broke free completely, the temperature in his eyes dropped sharply: "You are too much in charge, do what you should do."

Shi Xun is too familiar with the process of conflicts, and it is definitely not the current way of sloppy dismissal. From the beginning to the end, there is no mention of calling the parents to deal with it.

Looking at the principal's eyes on Qiuqiu, Shi Xun completely understood - he wanted to cover up this scandal directly by starting with Qiuqiu.

Shi Xun took a few steps back and stood in front of Qiuqiu: "Is the school's way of handling it just to calm down and let the victims swallow their anger? Okay, you don't care, I will take care of it!"

He took off his coat and put it on Qiuqiu: "Come on, let's go to the police, and I will definitely seek justice for you."

Before Shi Xun could move forward, the principal warned him: "What are you doing! If you report to the police, you will not escape punishment, and you may even have a criminal record. You are young and don't know how serious this is. It will affect you. Do you know about the future life?"

Shi Xun clenched his knuckles, the determination in his eyes was not broken: "That's better than letting him go!"

The headmaster quickly walked around to him, and his tone eased a lot: "You are all teenagers, you have a lot of youth in your hands, and few of you have made no mistakes. If everything is investigated to the end, how many people Will you lose your bright future? Didn't you fight all the time before, and didn't the school treat you tolerantly?"

Shi Xun looked up at the principal firmly: "Except for today, I have never taken the initiative to do anything. I made a mistake, but it is not a crime!"

He pushed Qiuqiu forward, but there was a block in his arm.

Qiuqiu grabbed him against his strength: "Shi Xun, let this matter go, I'm fine, I'm really fine, can you not call the police?"

Shi Xun looked at Qiuqiu in astonishment, with a dull expression: "Qiuqiu, what are you talking about... If a person does something wrong, if he is not punished, he will only do it again. Have you thought about what will happen in the future?"

Zheng Lu was obviously frightened, he interjected anxiously: "No, never again, I will write a letter of guarantee, I will transfer to another school when I get back, I will leave Beichi, and I will never see him again in this life!"

He looked at Shi Xun in panic: "Seeing that we lived in an orphanage, please let me go, don't do it so badly?"

Shi Xun sneered: "I'm not sure? In the end——"

The sound of Qiuqiu kneeling broke the tense atmosphere.

He grabbed Shi Xun's trousers: "Shi Xun, I beg you, my mother is seriously ill. If this matter gets to her ears, she will definitely not be able to hold on."

Shi Xun immediately knelt down to support Qiuqiu.

Qiuqiu took advantage of the opportunity to hold his arms tightly: "You have seen her before, I know you are doing it for my own good, but I really can't—"

"..."

Looking at Qiuqiu with tears in his eyes, Shi Xun bit his lower lip, the tip of his teeth penetrated the flesh, and the rusty smell of blood eroded in his mouth.

He lowered his head in silence, closing his eyes helplessly.

On that day, Shi Xun argued hard in the principal's office and left a punishment in Zheng Lu's file before transferring to another school.

In order to prevent other students from talking about it, Shi Xun took the initiative to ask the school to give him another punishment, and it was unanimously said that he and Zheng Lu fought, which brought disaster to Song Qiuqiu who came to fight.

Escorting Qiuqiu back to the dormitory safely, Shi Xun felt that Qiuqiu didn't want him to accompany him, so he simply went home.

A friend who was usually close to him heard that something happened to him, so he skipped class and waited for him at the school gate.

But Shi Xun was not in the mood to talk to him, and just acquiesced that he would go forward with him.

The usually hard stone road is now soft, and every step is as vain as stepping into cotton.

Shi Xun didn't know whether he was right or not, and no one could judge for him.

Sewage splashed from the cracks in the movable bricks, dampening his shoe uppers, but Shi Xun didn't change his way, just walking absent-mindedly.

The friend followed silently for a long time, and asked in embarrassment: "Shi Xun, do you hate homosexuality so much..."

Shi Xun paused and felt the vibration of the phone in his pocket.

The note of "Dean's mother" was displayed on the narrow screen, and he directly clicked the answer button.

The first voice came from the other end of the call: "Xiao Xun, I heard you called Xiaolu?"

Shi Xun didn't know where the dean got such good news, and faced her questioning, he could only admit: "Yes."

The exposed masonry on the wall was red, the same color as the torment in his heart.

The dean sighed, and persuaded him earnestly: "I know Xiaolu often does wrong things, but after all, you grew up together in the orphanage. If he didn't do anything special—"

Xu Shi's mother's voice could easily break through his defense, Shi Xun didn't hold back for a moment, and said angrily, "Isn't this kind of thing disgusting enough?"

There was no sound from the phone.

Shi Xun soon realized that he had said the wrong thing, and Qiuqiu must not let others know about it.

He made a few words of apology and hung up the phone hastily.

Beside him, his friends always stared at him.

Shi Xun licked his lips: "What's wrong?"

The friend shook his head, and didn't repeat the words he didn't hear clearly before the call.

Shi Xun didn't ask again, and said apologetically, "Go back first, I want to be alone."

The friend agreed with a "hmm".

There was a strange noise from the side of the wall not far away, Shi Xun glanced dimly, and there was no one else in his field of vision.

When I turned my head again, my friend also left.

Shi Xun kept his voice silent, feeling the emptiness and loneliness around him.
