Chapter 14 0013 [Skipping Class with Classmate Bian]

Grandma murmured, "What are you doing back home? Don't make the kid run away again."

Guan Xiaolin said as a matter of course: "It's my own daughter, and transferring schools is such a big deal, I must come and ask about it."

"If you didn't ask earlier or later, what's the point now?" Grandma's tone was very dissatisfied.

Guan Xiaolin put down the gift box silently.

Grandpa brought out the dishes, stood there for a while, seemed to want to say something but stopped, then turned back to the kitchen.

"Oh, what a sin!"

Grandma sighed and knocked on the bedroom door: "Guan Guan, come out and eat first. These are all your favorite dishes. Your grandpa has been busy all morning."

Bian Guanyue's voice came from the bedroom: "You guys eat, I'm not hungry yet."

Grandpa put all the dishes on the table and walked to the bedroom door and said, "It's okay if you don't come out. You should still eat something. Don't let yourself get hungry and get sick. How about I make some food and bring it to you inside?"

Bian Guanyue didn't reply.

After another ten seconds, the door suddenly opened and Bian Guanyue went to the kitchen to get some rice.

Guan Xiaolin wanted to follow, but her grandmother quickly stopped her.

Grandpa said, "Xiaolin, haven't you eaten yet? I'll scoop some for you."

Three generations sat around a dining table.

Bian Guanyue just buried his head in eating and refused to say a word.

Guan Xiaolin had no appetite to pick up her chopsticks. After a while of silence, she finally couldn't help but speak: "When strangers meet, they should also be polite and say hello. After all, we are mother and daughter. Can't you say a few words to me?"

Bian Guanyue eats faster.

Guan Xiaolin also became emotional, and her tone unconsciously rose: "It was your father who wanted to marry a rich woman back then. It was your father who cheated first. He is Chen Shimei, and I am Qin Xianglian. He is the one who caused all this!"

Bian Guanyue sneered:
"Will Qin Xianglian abandon her daughter to Chen Shimei? When other people get divorced, they all fight for custody of their children. What about you? The judge awarded our daughter to her mother, but you kept making excuses and refused to take it."

"I was in first grade, so young, and I sneaked onto the train and came back to Longdu to see you. I got lost and could only cry loudly. Luckily, the police came to help. And what happened to you? Without a word, you sent me back to Rongcheng and sent me to live with that stepmother!"

"If you hate me so much, why did you give birth to me?"

By the end of his speech, Bian Guan Yue was already roaring angrily.

Guan Xiaolin knew she was in the wrong, so she said stubbornly, "You don't understand. I have my reasons."

"What difficulties can you have?"

Bian Guanyue sneered, "You pushed me over there just to make me disgusted with that woman. You wanted to use me to create conflict and cause them to divorce, and then you could find a chance to get back together with my dad!"

Guan Xiaolin did not deny it because that was her plan back then.

"You only think about yourself. Have you ever thought about me?"

Bian Guanyue questioned, "I was only six years old when you divorced, and I had to live with my stepmother. Have you ever thought about how she would abuse me? Have you ever thought about how uncomfortable it would be for me to be caught between them? You are just like my father, a selfish person!"

Guan Xiaolin retorted, "I'm selfish? How could I be as selfish as your father? He abandoned his wife and daughter to marry a widow just to save himself twenty years of hard work! He didn't even care about you being bullied by your stepmother. He just cared about living off his wife and living in a mansion, leaving you to live in an old house with your grandparents!"

"Don't mention my grandparents, you have no right!" Bian Guanyue didn't even eat, threw down his chopsticks and went back to the bedroom.

Guan Xiaolin chased after her daughter and pressed the door, preventing her from closing it. "Don't I have the right? It was your grandmother who arranged for me to marry your father. If it weren't for them, how could this happen? They gave birth to a child like Chen Shimei, so they should be held responsible until the end!"

"Get out, this is my room!" Bian Guanyue roared.

Grandpa and grandma followed in.

Grandma tugged at Guan Xiaolin's sleeve and said, "Forget it. You and Xiaobian have both started new families. Why are you still arguing about the past? You finally came back, why are you arguing like this? If you have anything to say, just talk it out."

Guan Xiaolin said aggrievedly, "I flew from Pengcheng to Chengdu, and then took a few hours' drive back. Did I want to argue with her? If I didn't care about my daughter, why would I go through so much trouble?"

"You don't have to pretend to be the cat crying wolf." Bian Guanyue said.

Guan Xiaolin grew angrier as she listened. "I'm crying wolf? I'm your mother! I've already made connections in Pengcheng and found you a good school. Who am I trying to please everyone for?"

"Get out, get out, I don't want you to pretend to be a good person!" Bian Guanyue reached out and pushed his mother out.

Both mother and daughter have stubborn tempers and are already emotionally upset at the moment.

Guan Xiaolin refused to go out and deliberately squeezed in.

Grandpa and grandma tried to persuade him, but to no avail.

The scene became increasingly chaotic. Guan Xiaolin was not as strong as her daughter, so she grabbed the coat rack to maintain her balance in a hurry.

With a "clang", the clothes rack was overturned and fell down, hitting Guan Xiaolin on the forehead.

Seeing his mother injured, Bian Guanyue felt a little bit sorry for her and reduced his strength in pushing her.

Guan Xiaolin took the opportunity to squeeze forward, her hand covering her forehead as she walked around her daughter and headed towards the bed. Her head was dizzy from the blow, and she tripped over the fallen coat rack.

As she fell forward, Guan Xiaolin grabbed something randomly.

That's the laptop's power cord.

"Snapped!"

The notebook was pulled off the desk.

Bian Guanyue stood there in a daze, then rushed over to check the situation.

She ignored her fallen mother and hurriedly picked up the notebook.

The battery flew off.

Bian Guanyue retrieved the battery, installed it, and long-pressed the power button. Nothing happened, the screen remained black.

Tears welled up instantly.

Bian Guanyue wiped her tears, picked up her notebook, went to the sofa in the living room to pick up her schoolbag, and trotted out of the house and went downstairs.

Guan Xiaolin was furious when she saw this: "Is there such a daughter? She threw her own mother away and didn't care about her computer. In her heart, her own mother is not even as good as the computer!"

Grandpa, who had been silent the whole time, now revealed the details: "As you know, Guan Guan has been living with her grandparents all these years. But you don't know that her grandmother passed away three years ago, and her grandfather also passed away this year, so she transferred back to school."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Guan Xiaolin complained.

Grandma sighed and said, "I didn't tell you this because I was afraid you'd cause trouble when you came back. You and your mother always quarrel every time you meet. You're 40 years old and have been married twice, but you still can't change your bad habits. That computer was a birthday gift from Guan Guan's grandfather before he died."

Guan Xiaolin remained silent after hearing this.

……

Bian Guanyue walked to the side of the road, wiping her tears while waiting for a bus.

A taxi drove up, Bian Guanyue opened the door and got in: "Master, do you know where I can repair computers?"

"I really don't know about that," said the taxi driver.

Fushi County is a very poor place. There is not even a large comprehensive shopping mall or a store that specializes in digital products.

There isn't even a fast food restaurant!
There should be computer repair shops, but they are very few in number and hard to find, and even taxi drivers may not know them.

"Go to No. 2 Middle School." Bian Guanyue said subconsciously.

The taxi driver stepped on the accelerator: "Hold on!"

They arrived at the school gate in a flash, and Bian Guanyue paid and got off the bus. She wiped away her tears, took a deep breath, and pretended to be calm as she walked into the campus.

She called her grandparents to let them know she was safe, that she hadn't run around and was already at school.

After hanging up the phone, I felt more and more wronged and tears started to flow again.

She put on her hood and tied the collar string tightly, leaving only her eyes and nose exposed, as if this could isolate her from the outside world.

Bian Guanyue entered the classroom with her head lowered, and went straight to her seat, her forehead pressed against her folded arms, pretending to sleep on her desk. Only the occasional movement of her shoulders revealed that she was sobbing silently.

After lunch, Zheng Feng walked one stop to wait for the goddess, and squatted on the side of the road to do his homework.

I waited and waited, and it was almost time for class, but the goddess still didn't show up.

Another bus came, and Zheng Feng had no choice but to grit his teeth and get on it. After all, studying is more important than falling in love.

He jumped off the bus and ran to the classroom. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a familiar figure.

Zheng Feng walked to his seat and put down his schoolbag. He thought the goddess was taking a nap. He wanted to talk but didn't dare to disturb her.

At this moment, history teacher Wang Wenliang appeared.

With only a few minutes left before class officially began, Wang Wenliang sat on the podium, banging on the desk and shouting, "Who's on duty? Wipe the blackboard!"

Chen Guiliang and Xie Yang walked into the classroom side by side.

Hearing the teacher's call, Bian Guanyue, who had already stopped sobbing, sat up and took out his history textbook.

A large area of his sleeve was wet with tears.

Chen Guiliang walked over and saw her red eyes.

There are still tears hanging on her long eyelashes.

Eyes blurred with tears, pear blossoms wet with rain.

Even though Chen Guiliang was a human being in his second life, he was instantly struck by her pitiful appearance and wanted to hold Bian Guanyue in his arms to comfort and protect her.

She's just a weak little goblin!
"Do you have any tissues?" Chen Guiliang asked Wang Siyu.

Wang Siyu handed over a box of tissues.

Chen Guiliang stuffed the entire box of tissues into Bian Guanyue's desk drawer.

Wang Siyu then noticed the red eyes from crying and came over to ask Chen Guiliang, "Is she crying?"

Chen Guiliang nodded slightly.

Zheng Feng also noticed something was wrong and asked directly, "What's wrong with you?"

"fine."

Bian Guanyue took out a tissue and quickly wiped away her tears, then returned the remaining tissue to Wang Siyu: "Do you know where I can get my computer repaired?"

Zheng Feng quickly said, "My cousin's computer broke down, so she took it to the city to get it repaired."

"Thank you." Bian Guanyue lowered his head.

Chen Guiliang asked, "Are you anxious?"

"Not bad." Bian Guanyue replied.

Fortunately, I was just very anxious.

Chen Guiliang stuffed his books back into his desk, stood up and said, "Let's go."

Bian Guanyue asked puzzledly: "Where are we going?"

Chen Guiliang said, "I'll go with you to get your computer repaired."

"Go now?" Bian Guanyue was a little stunned.

Zheng Feng said anxiously, "No... Chen Guiliang, there's only computer repairmen in the city, and classes are about to start. If you go there now, you'll miss your entire afternoon of classes."

Chen Guiliang asked back: "Don't you see? The moon at the border is very urgent."

Zheng Feng was afraid that Chen Guiliang would take advantage of him: "No matter how urgent it is, you can't leave now. It's just a computer repair. You can go back on the weekend."

Chen Guiliang was too lazy to pay attention to him and said to Bian Guanyue: "Come with me, I'll take you to fix your computer!"

Bian Guanyue didn't say anything, but silently picked up the computer and schoolbag.

Under the shocked eyes of Zheng Feng and Wang Siyu, Chen Guiliang walked towards the podium with Bian Guanyue.

"Teacher Wang, I'd like to ask for leave." Chen Guiliang said.

Wang Wenliang didn't comment, but simply reminded: "Class will start in two minutes."

Chen Guiliang said, "Student Bian Guanyue has something very urgent to do."

Wang Wenliang looked at Bian Guanyue's red eyes from crying and didn't ask any more questions: "Go ahead, and remember to write a note to your class teacher asking for leave."

"Thank you, teacher!"

Bian Guan Yue bowed in greeting.

Zheng Feng was dumbfounded: "Did he really leave like that?"

Wang Siyu even added: "You accompany Bian Guanyue to and from school every day, but it's not as good as Chen Guiliang taking her to skip class once."

Zheng Feng felt like he was being cheated on and said dejectedly, "I'm a good student and never skip classes!"

Wang Siyu laughed and said, "Girls like bad boys."

Not only were they discussing it, the whole class was watching Chen Guiliang and Bian Guanyue walk out of the classroom.

Hero Chen is so awesome, he skips classes with beautiful girls!

Xie Yang was shocked and muttered to himself, "What the hell is going on?"

Li Jun had just arrived at the classroom after playing basketball. Dragging a sweaty mess, he inquired about the situation. After finding out, he slapped his thigh and said, "I can skip class too!"

Guan Zhiqiang grinned foolishly: "Wow."

Chen Guiliang chose to do this not just to show his courtesy.

He had long planned to go to the city to negotiate a deal and earn his first pot of gold. On his way back, he could also stop by home to visit his grandmother and pick up his first and second year high school textbooks.

Get more in one fell swoop.

As soon as the two walked out of the teaching building, the bell for class rang.

The school gate was also closed. Chen Guiliang handed over a cigarette and said, "Please open the door."

The guard took the cigarette but refused to help. "Before school is over, you're only allowed in, not out. If you want to leave the school, you must have a note signed by your homeroom teacher."

Bian Guanyue said, "Forget it."

"Follow me." Chen Guiliang turned and walked to the other side.

Bian Guanyue was at a loss and helpless at this time, as if she had found her backbone, and followed Chen Guiliang closely.

Soon, they arrived at the faculty and staff family area.

This place is connected to the teaching area, and the back door of the school is also located here.

The back door was open and no one blocked it.

Good students generally don't know that this path exists.

Standing on the side of the road, Bian Guanyue suggested: "Let's take a taxi. Go there and come back quickly."

"The roads are all broken, and taxis are not much faster than buses," said Chen Guiliang.

After finally finding a breakthrough to open the beautiful woman's heart, why would Chen Guiliang choose to take a taxi?

How romantic it is to ride the bus slowly and bumpily.

Moreover, I sat there for more than two hours!
