Genshin Impact: Please don’t bully me, fellow stragglers

Chapter 382 Like falling into an ice cave

July.

Not only A Liu's results were announced.

Online news about admissions of candidates and colleges from all over the country also began to dominate the headlines.

Nan Ke looked through the information on University A’s official website from previous years, and if nothing unexpected happens, the results should be out within this half month.

Although he has been in the university town for more than a month, Nan Ke has never dared to visit University A in advance.

To be honest, Nan Ke didn’t have 100% confidence that he could pass the exam.

if--

Disobey parents, change preferences without permission, and even run away from home.

What if she was not admitted to the university of her choice after committing these rebellious acts?

When Nan Ke thought of this possibility, he couldn't muster up the courage.

On a weekday, Nan Ke stood at the cashier counter of a convenience store for a whole morning. After returning to the lounge, he took off his mask and reached into his bag for his cell phone.

There were several missed calls. When I opened the address book, they were all marked as nuisance calls.

Before Nan Ke put down his phone, another strange phone call came in.

She picked up the phone: "Hello?"

"Hello, hello. I understand that you are about to enter university. I would like to ask if you are interested in postgraduate entrance examination training..."

Nan Ke held his phone between his shoulders, stuffed his changed uniform into his canvas bag, and waited patiently for the other end to finish: "Sorry, I'm not interested."

She hung up the phone, packed her things and went out.

"Xiao Nan, are you getting off work?" When Nan Ke passed by the front desk, the colleague who came to take over waved to her.

"I'm going to have lunch. I have class in the afternoon." Nan Ke stopped.

"There's a new noodle shop over there, the noodles with soy sauce are super delicious!" My colleague pointed outside the door and recommended it with a grin.

Nan Ke glanced at the direction she pointed in confusion: "...Thank you."

The colleague said "uh" and slightly widened his eyes. Perhaps he felt embarrassed by her bland response, and his tone became a little reluctant: "Then go ahead. Come back quickly, I'm afraid there will be too many people later and I won't be able to handle it."

Nan Ke nodded, turned and left.

Why can’t I greet people properly?

Is it so difficult to say a few words to someone you don’t know well?

Nan Ke looked towards the noodle shop with a new sign at the end of the street and bit her lip slightly.

After all - is it really necessary to have good relationships with everyone around you?

Nan Ke didn’t know the answer, but after hesitating for a while, he still walked over there.

She doesn't want to be hated.

The noodle shop had just opened and was offering free fried eggs, so it had a lot of customers.

Nan Ke shared a table with a young man who also looked like a worker. He lowered his head and checked his phone until the hot noodles were served.

The excessive amount of fat mixed with meat sauce covers each noodle, and is topped with a golden fried egg with burnt edges, which is very appetizing.

Nan Ke mixed it with chopsticks and picked it up.

Unexpectedly salty.

It smells like a pre-made seasoning packet.

Nan Ke took a few bites and hesitated as he stirred the greasy and shiny noodles. When he was weighing the possibility of stomach discomfort and wasting food, his cell phone started vibrating again.

"Hello?" Nan Ke picked up the phone as usual and put down his chopsticks to give his taste buds some time to catch their breath.

"Hello, this is the admissions office of University A. Are you Nan Ke?"

"um, yes."

"It's like this. Your academic performance did not meet the score requirement for the major you applied for. We have arranged a transfer for you..."

Nan Ke's heart skipped a beat and he glanced at the number.

It is not a common number combination and the place of origin is not local.

Sure enough, after saying a lot, the other party said: "...You can also choose the original major, but you need to pay a little extra fee, not much, 50,000..."

"Thank you," Nan Ke interrupted him, "I'll think about it."

Without waiting for the other party to say anything, Nan Ke hung up the phone.

As soon as I hung up, the other party called back persistently.

Nan Ke decisively hung up the call and added the person to the blacklist in one go.

She put her phone back into her bag and couldn't help but press her brows.

She clearly didn't fill in any random information, so how did her personal information get leaked?

Nan Ke picked up the chopsticks and took a few bites of noodles when another phone call came in.

Without even looking up, she reached into her bag and pressed the volume button.

The vibration stopped, but after about ten seconds, the light of the caller ID shone through the cloth and was still there.

For fear of missing the call from University A, Nan Ke had to take out his cell phone again.

This time it was a local landline call.

Nan Ke picked up the fried egg with his right hand, swiped his left hand to answer the call, and put the phone to his ear: "Hello..."

"How dare you block me?" A roar interrupted her.

Nan Ke's hand shook, and the fried egg that was about to reach his mouth fell back into the bowl.

The man on the other end was furious.

"I'm at the gate of your community, get out in five minutes!!!"

It was still a bright sunny day outside, and the wall-mounted fan was spinning tirelessly, blowing hot air across Nan Ke's face.

For the first time in his life, Nan Ke felt like he was falling into an icy cave.

She dropped her chopsticks and picked up her bag.

Run out.

The sun baked the air into pale magma, filling Nan Ke's lungs with his breath.

She could hear her own dry breathing and heartbeat in unison.

It was rapid and forceful, like a monster hiding inside tearing madly, violently pulling on her nerves and smashing her eardrums with endless "bang bang" sounds.

Beads of sweat rolled over his eyelashes and seeped into his eye sockets. Nan Ke's eyes turned pale and he felt dizzy. His tense stomach was churning, and greasy and sour gas flowed down his esophagus.

Nan Ke didn't dare to stop.

A thousand ominous premonitions were running rampant in her mind.

Why did you find this place?

Why do you know her phone number?

Could it be that Nan Yi...

By the time Nan Ke ran to the gate of the community, panting, five minutes had already passed.

Her heart was beating wildly and she looked around blankly at the deserted road under the sun.

My oxygen-deprived brain couldn't figure out whether I should be secretly happy about the other party's bluffing, or go home quickly, pack my luggage and escape again before they find me.

Nan Ke frantically reached for the phone in her bag, wanting to call back and ask where they were, but her fingers trembled from exhaustion and the phone fell to the ground.

She went forward to pick up her phone, but when she bent over, her legs were unstable and she stumbled and almost fell.

Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I saw several people getting out of a car parked on the side of the road.

As soon as his sight caught their figures, Nan Ke froze instantly.

At the same time, a biting chill ran up along the soles of her feet.

Nan Ke held his breath, slowly stood up and looked at them.

That's three people.

A man was walking in front, seeming to glare at her from afar, taking big and fast steps.

Behind him, two figures covered by a parasol walked towards Nan Ke across the dazzling sunlight.

Nan Ke opened his lips and exhaled briefly, then stood there motionless like a dried-up tree.

The man walked up to Nan Ke first, raised his hand and slapped her.

Nan Ke bit his lips tightly, and eased the pain on his face for a few seconds before raising his eyes and looking at the other person's angry expression with gnashing teeth: "...Dad."

"Don't call me dad!" The father seemed to be still angry. He raised his hand slightly, glared at her shoulders and clenched his fist, then slammed it down, "Nan Ke, who told you to run away from home? With a man! Have you ever thought about the consequences!"

"I'm sorry." Nan Ke put his hands down at his sides, clenching his fingers, "But I came here because I want to go to University A..."

"Who cares what you think?! That's how it looks to outsiders!"

"Dad!" A girl saw them arguing under the parasol at the back and ran up anxiously, opening her arms to block Nan Ke, "You promised to talk to Nan Ke!"

Under the bright sunshine, there was a handsome, thin face that Nan Ke was very familiar with.

From the eyebrows to the shape of the face.

The way you frown, the tone of your voice.

Whenever Nan Ke saw Nan Yi, he felt like he was looking in a mirror.

But Nan Yi's skin color is whiter, seemingly transparent under the strong light, and the blue blood vessels on his neck are clearly visible.

"Get out of the way!" the father shouted angrily.

Nan Yi stood in front of Nan Ke stubbornly: "I won't!"

"Nan Yi." Nan Ke spoke softly.

Nan Yi looked back at her, eyes full of guilt: "I'm sorry, Nan Ke, the day before yesterday, your admission letter was mailed to your home, I wanted to tell you secretly, but my mother found out..."

Before leaving, they agreed that in order to prevent their parents from knowing Nan Ke's whereabouts, they would avoid contact until Nan Ke took the initiative to go back.

But the admission letter.

Nan Ke indeed did not consider this, and it was not Nan Yi’s fault.

It must have been a tough time for Nan Yi to keep the secret for her during this period.

Nan Ke shook his head: "I'm glad you're okay."

How could my parents bear to lose their temper with me?

The twins had a natural tacit understanding. Nan Yi understood Nan Ke's meaning. He pursed his lips uncomfortably and looked at his father again, with a hint of pleading in his voice:

"I'm sorry, Dad. It was me who instigated Nan Ke. Now she's been admitted to University A. You shouldn't..."

“Nan Yi!” The mother came up from behind, without even looking at Nan Ke, and forcibly pulled Nan Yi back under the umbrella, “Don’t get involved.”

The father snorted coldly, his eyes fell back on Nan Ke, frowning and examining her from head to toe: "Who have you been living with during this period?"

Nan Ke lowered his eyes: "I rented the house myself."

"Who did you rent it from?"

"I found it before I came here."

The father frowned even deeper: "Where did you get the money?"

"The scholarship, and... the money I saved myself."

"Oh," the father sneered, "It seems like you have been wanting to rebel for a while?"

Nan Ke could only remain silent.

Her father didn't want to waste time talking to her. "I'll find a way to arrange for the medical university to sign this and hand it in to the school yourself. If I don't hear that you've gone to hand it in by the day after tomorrow, don't blame me for forcing you to go."

Following his father's threat, a piece of brown paper was thrown into Nan Ke's arms.

The words "Withdrawal Application" are printed in large vertical columns on the cover.

When Nan Ke raised his eyes, his father had already turned around and left with his mother and Nan Yi.

"Dad!" Nan Ke took a step toward them.

My father didn't even turn around.

Nan Ke stood there, raised his voice, and said in a hoarse voice: "Dad, did you bring Nan Yi's medicine?"

The father stopped walking when he heard this, turned around and glared at her coldly: "If you still care about your sister, don't cause us any trouble."

I couldn't bear to stay here even for a second longer.

They stuffed Nan Yi back into the car and drove away.
