Chapter 259: Eat Ice, God's wrath, and the truth comes out.

Lou Ying and Chi Xiaochi rode their bikes to a neighboring town, bought tickets, and got ready to see a movie.

With an hour to go before the show, they went into a candy store to rest their feet.

Lou Ying picked up the list on the counter and carefully selected it.

The young sales clerk girl took a look at Lou Ying and couldn't take her eyes off of him, enthusiastically recommending, "Little handsome, the most famous thing in this store is the mango colorful ice, would you like to have one?"

Lou Ying didn't look up and said in a gentle voice, "No, he doesn't eat mango, he'll have a small coconut double cream. I'll have a grape mint ice."

The enthusiasm of the small shopkeeper remained undiminished, "Really? Buy two glasses of Mango Colorful Ice and get a free medium popcorn coupon for the movie theater next door."

Lou Ying politely declined, "Thanks, no. We'll buy what we want to drink."

Still the little shopkeeper had no intention of giving up.

Chi Xiaochi had been paying attention to the little shopkeeper's eyes as she looked straight at Lou Ying, raised her eyebrows, stepped out from behind Lou Ying, and smiled as she pouted, "Sister, aren't I handsome."

When she saw Chi Xiaochi's face, the clerk drew a soft breath and was speechless.

Lou Ying tried to hold him back, "Go take a seat."

Chi Xiaochi, however, refused to listen, resting her chin on Lou Ying's shoulder, scanned the list quickly, and when she looked up again, her smiling eyes lit up, "Sister, what my brother and I ordered is the same price as two Mango Colorful Ice, can you give us a popcorn coupon?"

With that, he put his hands together in a serious ten, "Please."

Lou Ying grabs the little peacock that's opening up everywhere by the window, and sits down.

Chi Xiaochi sits across from him, holding a complimentary popcorn coupon in front of him.

Lou Ying couldn't do anything about it, so she crossed the table, rubbed his hair, and confiscated his tools for showing off his charms.

Chi Xiaochi looks at Lou Ying on her arm: "Brother, how do you know I don't like mangoes?"

Lou Ying looked at him and counted, "Variety, Country Travel, Season 1, Issue 3, the time you were a special guest, 52 minutes exactly, you and a resident went mango picking together. You said that eating mangoes would upset your throat."

As they spoke, the drinks they had ordered were brought up.

Chi Xiaochi pulled the bisque to her feet and said unevenly, "I don't know you at all."

Lou Ying pushed the grape mint ice in front of him forward and turned the spoon toward Chi Xiaochi again, saying gently, "Here, does this count as a chance?"

Chi Xiaochi opened her mouth, "Ah."

Lou Ying smiled helplessly, "Someone is."

Chi Xiaochi: "Ah."

He just casually flirted with the idea, but to his surprise, Lou Ying really scooped up a spoonful of ice, ate a small portion of it herself, and then brought the other half to Chi Xiaochi's lips.

Chi Xiaochi froze, circled around to the side of the spoon where Lou Ying hadn't touched it, squirmed to steal a small bite, and immediately retracted, scooting down to scoop her own double-boiled milk and stuffing it full.

Lou Ying held up the spoon and looked at Chi Xiaochi with a mixture of anger and amusement.

He feels that the authorities should introduce a Chi Xiaochi management bill to penalize this kind of bad practice of ruffling feathers and being irresponsible.

Chi Xiaochi quietly finished a double-boiled milk and went to the movie theater with Lou Ying.

Take the coupon to exchange popcorn, the counter lady apologized and pointed to the machine, said: "to redeem the coupon too many people, this is not, just do a good job of a machine, a few minutes on the redemption of the end, now can only give a small portion of the. Still want a medium portion, you have to wait for about ten minutes."

Lou Ying looks up at her wrist and sees that the movie starts in five minutes.

He asked Chi Xiaochi's opinion: "Do you want it?"

Chi Xiaochi: "Let's have small portions."

As soon as they entered the movie theater, a strong cold wind blew Chi Xiaochi shivering.

The air conditioner in this movie theater had apparently just been refilled with fluoride and was sufficiently overcooled.

The popcorn they held in their hands, in turn, became the only real source of heat.

When he was seated, Lou Ying took clothes from the system's storage area, placed one over Chi Xiaochi's legs and one over him, and carefully regulated his body temperature.

It was a good viewing experience for two people among the freezing, shivering young couples around them.

This is a Hong Kong police movie, the formula is very old, a look at the beginning to know the final boss is the police station boss, but the good thing is that the car chase scene and fight design is very good, but very suitable for passing the time.

Chi Xiaochi It's been years since I've sat in a movie theater and watched a movie just for the sake of watching a movie, and the experience was nothing short of novel, except that the popcorn used for the giveaway didn't taste very good, and the saccharin flavor was so strong that I lost my appetite after a few pieces.

He simply buried his right hand in the hot popcorn to keep it warm.

At some point, Lou Ying's hand was also put in.

The man and woman on the screen start to talk about love and life, while Chi Xiaochi and Lou Ying, who are bored off-screen, start to hold hands and play thumb-pressing games in the popcorn.

Chi Xiaochi's hands are always a weakness, and it doesn't take long for his thumbs to be pinned down by Lou Ying, unable to move.

Chi Xiaochi lost the game and tried to pull his hand back, but his fingers were tightly held by Lou Ying.

He whispered, "Brother?"

"You can't hold it outside." Lou Ying whispers back to him, "Can you sneak a little hold now."

Chi Xiaochi didn't say anything, just returned his grip and held his hand a little tighter.

By the time the movie broke up, both men's hands were covered in the rich, creamy smell.

Now is the summer vacation, come to see the movie student party a lot, so when the show to go out, rushed to go to dinner students a Bo Bo out of the influx, shoulder to shoulder, in pairs, two boys ambiguous hand holding words, but also too much eye-catching.

But squeezing hard, the two would inevitably be squashed apart.

Lou Ying nodded at the strap of her slouchy backpack, and Chi Xiaochi understood and reached out to pull it.

Neither of the two asked why they didn't wait for the crowd to disperse before coming out.

One walked ahead, one pulled his book bag with him dutifully following behind, and joined the flow of people as they made their way to the street outside.

It was getting late and the heat had cleared, so Lou Ying bought Chi Xiaochi an egg custard for him to hold and nibble on, and then drove him slowly back to his home town.

He said, "Let's go skating tomorrow."

Chi Xiaochi picked up, "Going to play pool this afternoon."

Lou Ying smiles, "Okay, remember."

The sun was setting inch by inch to the west, stretching the shadows of the two teenagers.

The other side.

Zhu Shoucheng was really sick and was hospitalized.

That dream had a real impact on him, and soon after he went back to his room, he was vomiting and having diarrhea, and the commotion could be described as frightening, with trips to the toilet, scaring the neighbors into calling an ambulance.

After diagnosis, it was stress gastroenteritis.

Chi's mother didn't think Zhu Shoucheng wasn't shirking his responsibilities, but was really sick. Remembering the tongue-chewing she had done with her neighbors, she was a bit snappy, and bought a few fruits and took Chi Xiaochi to the hospital to visit him.

Chi Xiaochi not only went to the hospital, but also said "Mr. Zhu" sweetly in front of his bed, hoping that he would get well soon.

Later that night, Zhu Shoucheng had another nightmare, unrelated to Chi Xiaochi, but when he woke up screaming, his emotional illness, which had just begun to take hold, was back in full force, with another round of darkness.

When Chi's mother saw the haggard-looking Zhu Shoucheng, she finally broke off the idea of having him tutor Chi Xiaochi.

Aiming around, she took another look at Lou Ying.

After Lou Ying made things clear and made a scene in public, no one in the building dared to talk about Lou Ying's theft anymore, but gossiped about Auntie Chu's public embarrassment. Occasionally Lou Ying was discussed, but in the end, it was just a couple of acidic sentences, "A couple of sentences won't cause any loss of meat, so where is the need to take action", "That he in the end steal or not steal ah", "who knows, Auntie Chu do not dare to report to the police, there should be no it", also lightly over.

Chi's mother invites Lou Ying to her home for dinner, with the same great food and the same flattering compliments about his academic excellence, in order to ask Lou Ying to continue tutoring Chi Xiaochi for free.

Without changing her color, Lou Ying nodded politely to Chi's mother, not rushing to say yes, but turning to Chi Xiaochi, she asked, "Are you still willing."

Chi Xiaochi said in all seriousness, "I'll think about it."

Chi mother before can say a lot of bad things about Lou Ying, but also worried about this matter can not be done, easy to wait until Lou Ying loosened the mouth, she had breathed a sigh of relief, I did not think that the son is not mindful of the situation, but also in the pretense of taking Qiao, for fear of taking advantage of the opportunity to be lazy, she could not help but fiercely glared at him, and then rushed to Lou Ying smiled: "This child jokes it. He can be happy to let you teach, usually no less in front of me to say good words ......"

Lou Ying looked at Chi Xiaochi and smiled gently, "Really?"

Chi Xiaochi keeps his head down and picks up his food.

Mother Ikki laughed, "The boy is still shy."

Where she could not see, Chi Xiaochi's slippers were placed squarely in front of the footstool, and a pair of bare feet stepped on Lou Ying's feet, treading water as if they were treading water, trying to observe Lou Ying's change of demeanor.

Unexpectedly, Lou Ying's back was straight and his face couldn't be calmer.

Disappointed, Chi Xiaochi drew his foot back, only to have his right foot coiled and stuck firmly by Lou Ying with one of his legs.

Chi Xiaochi's face reddened slightly, and she struggled back several times, but Lou Ying didn't let go until the meal was over, and when Chi's mother got up to clean up the dishes, Chi Xiaochi put on her slippers in a bit of a panic and glared at him, but when she saw that he smiled gently at her, she was honest, and she went off to clean up her things like a quail.

A summer of hitting the ground running just rushed by.

Zhu Shoucheng was hospitalized for half a week and then returned home, has been sick and sick, from time to time nightmares, gastroenteritis well and then flare-ups, the disease has not left the body off and on, a month and a half past, he shaved his hair was raised, blocked the scabbed scars of the blood sores, but as soon as he arrived at the school, all the people who knew him well were shocked, and have been concerned about his physical condition.

Only a summer's work, he quickly lost weight, the original is still quite tall and strong body seems to have been drained of essence, face greenish yellow, cheekbones are protruding out.

Luckily Zhu Shoucheng is well liked, and there are single, middle-aged female coworkers who bring him good yam to replenish his body.

Zhu Shoucheng forced a smile and approached the principal, wanting to be reassigned to the first grade to lead the students.

He needs to see new prey to distract him from Chi Xiaochi's influence.

For Chi Xiaochi, he was half-hearted.

Zhu Shoucheng has no intention of exploring the source of the strange dream, he just wants to leave this bogeyman and find a new love so that he can wash away this inexplicable shadow.

After the official opening of the school, learned that Zhu Shoucheng to be transferred, his students a mournful, a few little girls even cried and ran to the office, begging Mr. Zhu not to go.

After Zhu Shoucheng warmly and softly coaxed them away, the teachers in the same office said enviously, "Mr. Zhu, you have a really good relationship with your students."

Zhu Shoucheng bowed his head to correct his homework and joked, "Children are the treasures given to us by God, and if we don't treasure them, we will be condemned by Heaven."

Zhu Shoucheng familiarized himself with the roster early on, and it took him only one session to get the new kids in the right place.

None of these kids were as good as Chi Xiaochi, which made Zhu Shoucheng regretful but also grateful.

It seems that he has no chance with Chi Xiaochi and is not destined to eat the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, so it wouldn't be bad to have some plain food to regulate his stomach.

Soon it was time for Zhu Shoucheng's favorite eye exercises.

During eye exercises, all the children would close their eyes and he, as the class teacher, had to make his rounds to supervise them, which gave him enough time to measure and compare the looks of each child's features.

And one by one, these little lambs will close their eyes so tightly that they won't even realize it.

Zhu Shoucheng loves the feeling of being the chosen one.

This group of children were all promoted from primary to junior high school, and the school had just begun, so they could not understand the temperament of the new class teacher, so they were more obedient than one another, following the rhythm of the broadcast, and rubbing the eye points one by one.

Zhu Shoucheng had just turned his attention to the face of a boy who looked like he had extremely long eyelashes, when the background music of eye exercises, which was chanted on the radio as one, two, three, four, two, two, three, four, suddenly changed its tune.

The soft sound of music was replaced by the unusually familiar vocals of a Zhu Shoucheng.

"Xiaochi, you have white legs."

"You be good, be good."

"Don't tell your parents, they won't believe a word of it."

"Mr. Chu will treat you well and will love you."

"That's a good boy, such a good obedient boy. Come to the bed, spread your legs wide and let your teacher touch them ......"

On top of that, there was a teenager's helpless whimpering within, sounding pitiful to the core.

Zhu Shoucheng was horrified to the point of turning ashen when he heard only the first sentence.

This is clearly what he said ...... to Chi Xiaochi in the first dream!

But, but how can the words spoken in the dream ......

The kids in the class heard the music stop and couldn't help but drop their hands and whisper.

Zhu Shoucheng no longer had the heart to maintain discipline, his mind was chaotic, unable to distinguish between dream and reality, but not long after, he woke up as if from a dream, and drew his feet and rushed outside.

Several teachers were already standing in the hallway, uniformly looking at Zhu Shoucheng's class with odd eyes.

We are colleagues who spend a lot of time together, looking up and down, how could we not hear Zhu Shoucheng's voice.

...... In fact, they have heard Zhu Shoucheng coaxing students with such a voice more than once.

Zhu Shoucheng It was as if he had been stripped naked and shown to the public in broad daylight, and this illusion of being watched by ten thousand people caused him to break out in a cold sweat, and he almost ran away and stumbled down the stairs.

He ran to the front of the school's broadcasting office and raised his hand to slam the door, "Where's Mr. Lee in the broadcasting room? What nonsense is being played? Stop it!"

Mr. Li, with his back to him, stood in front of the console where the channel lights were flashing chaotically, and was also a bit at a loss for words, "I don't know, I can't control it, it's suddenly ......"

With that, she turned around and her eyes slowly changed when she saw who was coming.

She stared at Zhu Shoucheng's pale and sweaty face, her look full of suspicion: "...... Teacher Zhu, in here, it's your voice, right?"
