Chapter 40: [Second shift] You love to marry yourself, I don't marry.

Soon after, Chen Jingshen messaged him asking how he hung up.

Why did you hang up? What did you say?

Is that look in your eyes innocent?

But Yu Fan wasn't in a position to say something less than facetious like I think you're going to confess to me. So he simply didn't reply.

Chen Jingshen didn't ask any more questions, but just sent a few more pictures of the dog over after ten minutes or so.

Yu Fan crouched under a tree and smoked a cigarette while blowing in the evening breeze, blew himself cool, then opened the pictures one by one to read, got up and put out the cigarette to go home.

When Yu Fan came home, she saw that the windows were wide open, the lights were on, and the TV inside was so loud that the whole building could hear it.

Yu Kaiming was sitting on the sofa, watching a soccer game while chatting with his gambling buddies, when Yu Fan came in, he immediately turned off the microphone of his cell phone, and unconsciously flattened his feet on the coffee table.

The seventeen year old boy twitching and plucking had grown taller than he was.

Usually Yu Kaiming wasn't too afraid of him when he was drunk or surrounded by people, but in his rare sober state, Yu Kaiming wouldn't provoke him.

After all, his experience over the past two years had taught him that the chances of winning a fight in single combat were really not that great.

Yu Fan entered the house, scanned the TV, tossed his keys on the shoebox, and walked up without a word.

Yu Kaiming immediately put his foot down, "I warned you not to pick a fight ......"

Yu Fan picked up the remote control, turned the volume of 68 to 18, then threw it back on the table and turned around to go back inside. He didn't even give him a look in the process.

The door closed behind him. Yu Kaiming glances back in disbelief and continues to pick up his cell phone to talk to his gambling buddies.

"I am, not asleep, just now my son came back ...... no noise. That pussy cubs do not know what to do tonight to go, the face looks joyful."

-

At 9pm the next day, Yu Fan sat at his desk and waited for Chen Jingshen to send him a video recording of his lecture. When he didn't get the video, the other party popped up a video call invitation for him.

Yu Fan froze for a moment, not picking up the invitation until it was about to hang up automatically.

Chen Jingshen had a towel over his shoulder and his eyes were downcast as he flipped through the papers in his hand.

The light from the table lamp swept over his cheeks, covering them with a cold color.

He asked, as the two had done before when they were sprinting for midterms, "Nice choice of questions for the weekend paper, do you want to do it for a while?"

Yu Fan grip pen fingers tightened for a moment, a long time before the cell phone stand next to the bored head yanked out the test paper: "Are you annoyed ...... forget it, anyway, boring, casually do a few questions."

Chen Jingshen Talking about the topic with the rear camera on.

An hour or so passed and finally the last few big questions of the paper were covered.

These big questions are a bit difficult, Yu Fan. I can't help but get distracted when I don't understand something.

Chen Jingshen's low voice resounded in the earphones, and Yu Fan absentmindedly turned his pen to listen, suddenly remembering the other party's vaguely smiling silhouette in the backseat of the car last night.

"Did you hear me." Chen Jingshen asked and got no response, so he raised his eyes, "Yu Fan?"

Yu Fan's heart skipped a beat and he jerked his head up with his chin supported, "Oh, didn't listen to ......"

A very small and very long squeak sounded on the other end of the headset, interrupting him.

Yu Fan initially thought he had misheard, until he saw Chen Jingshen suddenly turn his head to look aside, followed by a flash of light, like headlights, across his face.

"Let's talk about it when we go to school." In the middle of the morning, Chen Jingshen re-looked back and put down his pen, "I have something here, I have to hang up."

Yu Fan subconsciously hmmmed, and the next second, the video was hung up by the opposite side.

Yu Fan leaned back in his chair, frowning as he stared at Chen Jingshen's dialog box for a moment.

Was it his illusion? Why did he feel that before hanging up the phone, Chen Jingshen looked a little bit unhappy.

It's obviously still the same face.

After working on the problem for most of the day, Yu Fan picked up his cell phone and cigarettes and got up, going to the balcony to get some air.

The old neighborhood was fairly quiet late at night.

Yu Fan sat on the balcony smoking a cigarette and flipping through his cell phone. WeChat received several messages during the time of the video, all from Wang Luan, asking how to call him voice has not been able to call.

Yu Fan replied that he was busy just now, but Wang Luan didn't reply, probably playing games. So he clicked on the discussion group that had been @ing him, and scrolled up through the chat.

[Wang Luan: Yu Fan's voice can't get through, ask the gym student in your class.]

Zuo Kuan: I can't get through either. Damn, what's wrong with this group of people? They can't even get enough people together to play the game. I'll try again.

Zhu Xu: I'm coming. Wang Luan, I don't have a name, I don't have a surname? I've just been videoing with my deskmate.]

Zuo Kuan: A girlfriend is a girlfriend, but a deskmate? Which tablemates are like you guys, who regularly video for an hour every night at 8:00 p.m.?

Yu Fan fingers crossed: "......"

What's wrong with videos? How can you teach a question without a video?

He scanned Zuo Kuan's game character avatar and thought to himself, never mind, people like you who don't study really don't understand.

Wang Luan: Isn't it enough for you to see each other every day at school? Don't you think it's a waste of time to see each other for an hour every night?

Zhu Xu: It's okay, I have nothing to do at home anyway. It's a waste of cigarettes if you really want to talk about it.

[Wang Luan:?

Zhu Xu: chat happy want to smoke, chat on the head want to smoke, she has something to chat can not, still want to smoke ...... hey, love is really annoying].

[Zuo Kuan: Fuck you, who wants to hear it? Get on the horn.

Yu Fan's fingers, which were holding the cigarette, trembled slightly.

In the middle of the day, he turned off his cell phone and threw it to the side, thinking, "I simply want to smoke myself, and it has nothing to do with Chen Jingshen.

After smoking one and thinking it wasn't enough, he wanted another, reaching into his cigarette case only to find it empty.

Yu Fan remembered with hindsight that he was under that tree last night, smoking in circles for half a day.

Yu Fan: "......"

He grimaced as he clutched the cigarette case in his hand and crumpled it into a ball, tossing it hard in front of him and into the trash can by the door.

-

Monday at school, the news of Ding Xiao's disciplinary action spread throughout the sophomore classrooms.

He didn't come to school himself, and according to people who knew him, his family was in the process of transferring him.

However, Yu Fan had lost all interest in this matter. He didn't listen to a single word of Wang Luan and Zuo Kuan's ramblings in his ear.

With one hand on his chin, Yu Guang glanced toward the truly timid one while Wang Luan and Zuo Kuan passionately debated the age-old question of who had the least guts.

Chen Jingshen sat straight as always, his eyes downcast as he silently sketched out calculations on the draft paper.

It didn't look like there was any intention of explaining the reason for hanging the video last night, nor was there any intention of giving him the last big question on the paper.

Forgot?

Forget it, you can't tell me.

Yu Fan withdrew his gaze, a little annoyed for no reason.

It wasn't until the physics teacher entered the classroom that the two raucous brothers next to him finally left.

Yu Fan leaned back in his chair and half bent over, reached into the drawer to touch the textbook ...... then saw a new thing he hadn t seen before.

Dumb and Dumber Evolution, in black.

Turning to the first page, it had his name on it, in his deskmate's handwriting.

"I scratched out the key questions in it." Chen Jingshen leaned back in his chair just like him and inclined his head to look at him, "That paper from yesterday, I'll go on to explain it to you tonight?"

Yu Fan turned around and locked eyes with him, his emotions inexplicably relieved.

He lowered his eyes and reverted to his usual lazy demeanor, saying, "...... Oh."

At the end of the first period, just as the physics teacher left, Zhuang Fangqin came in.

She made the announcement of a parent-teacher conference this Thursday afternoon while everyone in the class was still in their seats.

"Everyone must notify their parents, if anyone's parents have something they can't come to, let the parents call me beforehand to explain the situation." After saying that, Zhuang Fangqin swept the back row of the classroom and said, "Alright on this, let's take a break after class....... Yu Fan, you come with me to the office."

Yu Fan obediently followed Zhuang Fangqin toward the office.

Zhuang Fangqin looked back at him, "This time the parents ......"

"No one's coming." Yu Fan cuts right through.

"......"

Unexpected and unsurprising.

Actually, Zhuang Fangqin has made an effort before.

She talked to Yu Fan, but he wouldn't budge. Later, she went beyond Yu Fan and called his parents directly from her address book. After two days of calling, no one answered, and when she finally got through, the person on the other end said impatiently, "You know what the situation is like at home, I'm not going to go, and I have nothing to do with the school.

So Zhuang Fangqin didn't insist.

"Never mind then, since your parents won't be attending this time, you don't have to pick them up at the door, just come to the classroom and help me greet the parents then."

"......"

Yu Fan thought he had heard wrong: "Me? It's not appropriate. Don't have half the class transferred by parents once the parent-teacher conference is over."

"Be serious." Zhuang Fangqin picked up the lesson plan and patted him, "You don't have to do anything, just take a sign-in sheet and stand in front of the classroom to get the parents to sign."

Zhuang Fangqin raised this matter for four days in a row, and Yu Fan also resisted for four days.

On Thursday afternoon, just after first period, Zhuang Fangqin shoved the sign-in sheet into his arms and told him to pack up and go to the door.

There's still over half an hour before the parent-teacher conference starts.

A few students in the class were setting up the classroom. Yu Fan, holding the sign-in sheet, stood leaning on the balcony railing in dead silence, watching the bustling scenery downstairs.

Their building was in an excellent location, and when they stood on the balcony, they could see the front door of the school as well as the street outside. At the moment, the road outside the school was already jammed full of parents' cars.

Chen Jingshen picked up her book bag and put it on the utility table, raised her eyes to him and said, "I'm going down."

Yu Fan thought he was going downstairs to pick up his parents and turned around to casually answer.

Ten minutes later, he saw his classmate, with a red armband on his arm that read "Outstanding Student Representative," walking to the front door of the school to stand with Hu Pang.

Yu Fan : "...... What is he doing?"

Zhang Xianjing Followed his line of sight and glanced down: "Chen Jingshen?Standing guard to go ah, freshmen and sophomores and juniors each pick a stand gate, Hu Pang picked the schoolboy ...... he did not tell you?"

Yu Fan was just about to say no, when it suddenly occurred to him that during the video last night, he said something about how he was going to watch the door.

Chen Jingshen shook the pen in his hand and said, "Let's look at it together.

...... He thought Chen Jingshen meant to stand in the hallway together and listen to the parent-teacher conference.

"Oh ...... I think I said that." Yu Fan looked at the two men next to him, "Why don't you guys go down and get them?"

Zhang Xianjing played with his cell phone and said, "There's no rush, my mom is still stuck in front of the house."

Wang Luan: "My dad hasn't left the house yet."

Zhang Xianjing : "What, he came over to help clean up the classroom?"

"You don't know shit! My father drove his heirloom small donkey, fierce very, swish swish swish in the traffic weave, not ten minutes to arrive." Wang Luan proudly looked down, "Look at this situation below, to what ...... I grass!"

Yu Fan frowned at his shout.

He was so loud that Zuo Kuan, who was sweeping the corridor in the next class, looked up and scolded him, "What the hell are you screaming about?"

Wang Luan: "Holy shit! Look at that car! Is that a fucking Bentley?"

Snap! Zuo Kuan ran over here by throwing his broomstick straight to the ground.

"Holy shit, what a ......"

Zhang Xianjing is indifferent: "How much does this kind of car cost?"

"Not much." Wang Luan, who has loved cars since childhood, licked his lips frantically, "This one depends on the model ...... a few hundred ten million."

Zhu Xu, who followed over, sucked in a mouthful of cold air, "Day, our school ...... Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon ...... hey the car stopped, quick, see who's family is so rich!"

Yu Fan had little interest in these things. He stared at the back of the one downstairs that was a cut taller than the others and thought to himself Why is Chen Jingshen standing so stupidly?

Every parent who passed by almost always glanced at Chen Jingshen with that look of a dreamy love child.

After a few seconds, the man standing guard finally moved.

Chen Jingshen suddenly inclined his head and said something to Hu Pang, who nodded and waved his hand to let him go.

Yu Fan watched Chen Jingshen walk all the way out of the school gate, cross the crowd of people pouring into the school gate, and walk to the side of a ...... luxury car.

The back seat of the limousine came down to a woman with a competent and generous temperament, whose face could not be seen. When she saw Chen Jingshen, she naturally raised her hand and straightened Chen Jingshen's armband.

Zuo Kuan : "Holy shit! School bully!"

Zhu Xu : "Holy shit, bull."

"I grass, rich man actually in my side?" Wang Luan touched the shoulder of the person next to him and said in a daze, "...... Hey, if you can fall in love with the school bully, that's like marrying into a rich family!!!"

"Scram." Yu Fan almost reflexively said, "You love to marry yourself, I'm not marrying."

The hallway suddenly went silent as Yu Fan finished holding that sign-in sheet.

A pin drop.

Sensing something was wrong, Yu Fan's eyelids jerked twice, and he twisted his head suspiciously-

Wang Luan was seen riding on Zhang Xianjing's shoulder, his mouth still open.

The few people present all stood unmoving, staring intently at him in bewilderment and shock.
