Can I like you

This conversation was not as tense as imagined, because Xiao Peng's reputation during the unannounced visit was indeed very good. Although the current public opinion is a bit difficult to end, they still don't believe in the authenticity of this matter.

The new lady who joined couldn't control her gaze, she would stare at Xiao Peng from time to time, inquiring or puzzled, Xiao Peng could guess what she was thinking, probably because he was surprised that he looked like a dog, how could such a thing happen Come on.

Director Peng lowered his eyes on the bridge of his nose and said cheerfully: "Mr. Xiao, don't be nervous. I called you here today to tell you about the progress of our investigation. According to our recent visits and investigations, we really didn't find any violations by you. Behavior and behavior contact, but now public opinion is overwhelming, as the investigation team, we need to have a formal meeting with you."

Xiao Peng smiled and nodded: "Understood, I will fully cooperate."

Director Peng was very satisfied with his answer, so he began to ask about the situation: "The last time we asked about the contents of the report letter, you also clearly admitted your sexual orientation and denied the sexual harassment of students. Today, about Is there anything else you need to justify or add to this matter?"

As soon as the question of sexual orientation came up, the lady's eyes became surprised, and Xiao Peng replied indifferently: "No, I admit to the question of sexual orientation, but I don't agree with the argument that homosexuality is a matter of moral corruption and that homosexuality will harass students. I ask myself that I have not caused anyone trouble because of my sexual orientation during my coaching, so I strongly condemn and categorically deny the second accusation!"

Director Peng nodded when he heard the words. He looked down at the document in his hand, and an investigator at the side asked, "So, how do you explain the suspension that the school gave you?"

Xiao Peng sat up straight and replied solemnly: "First of all, I want to explain that the suspension is not a punishment from the school, but I proposed it to the school on my own initiative."

"Then I can't understand." The female investigator who had been listening in said, "This period is not a good time to propose suspension. A large number of people will think that you choose to suspend because of guilty conscience. May I ask you about this? What's the explanation?"

"I am the head teacher of a parallel class in the third year of high school, and my children will face their first large-scale model exam since they entered the third year of high school." Xiao Peng said slowly, "I don't know if you have taken children from the parallel class. They are motivated but lack self-confidence. In the eyes of children in key classes, mock exams may be the same as a quiz, but in their eyes it is different. They value the results of mock exams very much, and even doubt themselves because of the failure of a mock exam. .”

"It doesn't matter how the parents misunderstand me. I can also insist on ignoring them and continue my work and wait for justice to come." Xiao Peng paused, "But my children can't, I can't influence them because of my persistence , can’t let them fall into gossip.”

The investigation team was collectively silent. Xiao Peng was thinking of the students both inside and outside of his words. This concern is not unreasonable. When he is in school for a day, the students in the class will be affected more or less. It will be better if he leaves.

Director Peng adjusted his glasses, turned his head and said a few words to the investigators on the left and right, and finally coordinated his opinions: "Okay, we understand the current situation, and please believe that we will not wrong anyone. During this period of time, you should treat it as a vacation! After you have cultivated, you will need you to go back next semester when the children will sprint for their third year of high school!"

Xiao Peng stood up and bowed: "Thank you! I also worked hard, teachers, and thank you for your hard work during this time!"

The others also stood up one after another, and after shaking hands one by one, Xiao Peng left.

Walking out of the office building of the Education Bureau, Xiao Peng's mood almost sank to the bottom. Because of the anonymous report and the protection of the reporter's privacy, this investigation will not dig deep into the people behind it.At present, the trend of public opinion is overwhelmingly blaming him. In order to appease the parents and give an explanation, even if he cooperates well and has no real evidence, he will deal with this hidden danger of himself seriously, and it is very likely that he will be fired directly.

The person who caused the trouble had very clear intentions, he just wanted to leave No.[-] Middle School by himself, or to put it more ruthlessly, he wanted to make him unable to stay in Lincheng any longer.

Xiao Peng couldn't figure out who he had offended, who would hate him so much, and why would a person with such great ability have trouble with a young teacher like him?

In a daze, he walked to the side of the road and stopped a taxi. The driver didn't start the car for a long time. Xiao waited for Xiao Peng to recover. The driver was staring at him and asked doubtfully, "Speak up! Where are you going?"

Only then did Xiao Peng realize that he hadn't reported the address, he opened his mouth and then stopped, where is Li Shuhe's house...?

In the end, I found out the name of the community after calling Li Shuhe. When the driver heard that he was going to Jiuxiyuan, he began to chatter: "Jiuxiyuan is a good place! All the dignitaries in Lincheng live there!"

Xiao Peng hecked twice in embarrassment and didn't answer, the driver glanced at him and asked cautiously: "The young man bought a house in Jiuxiyuan at such a young age, he seems to be a business executive, right?"

In fact, Xiao Peng didn't want to talk very much, but the driver's eyes were too eager, and it seemed impolite not to answer, so he just replied casually: "No, I'm a teacher."

Hearing what he said, the driver immediately opened his mouth: "Now the teachers can afford a house in Jiuxiyuan?! Outside... there are no less classes, right?"

"No." Xiao Peng retorted weakly.

The driver's tone was obviously disbelieving: "How can there be a teacher who does not substitute for a class outside the school! We all understand! We all understand! Which school are you a teacher? There must be many students who can afford such an expensive house. Teacher, which school do you teach? Yes? If you teach well, I will send my daughter to you later!"

Looking through the rearview mirror, Xiao Peng saw that the driver was about to engrave the word "gossip" in his eyes, so he sighed helplessly and shook his head, swallowed back the words of defense, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, and was too lazy to tell him.

The security of Jiuxiyuan was very strict, and taxis were not allowed to enter or leave the complex. Xiao Peng got off the car at the main entrance and entered by himself with the access control left by Li Shuhe.

The greening of the community is very good. From the thick trunks of the street trees, it can be seen that the community has been built for some years.It was just after 10:[-] in the morning and it was not time for lunch. Many elderly people walking around in the community went home to prepare lunch one after another. Lincheng is an old industrial city, and even the luxurious communities are mostly lived by the elderly.

The refrigerator that was originally filled by Li Shuhe was already empty yesterday, and there was a fruit and vegetable store next to the fitness equipment in the community, Xiao Peng went in to buy some vegetables and planned to go back for the next meal, when the phone rang just after shopping.

"Where is it?" Li Shuhe's voice was a little anxious.

Xiao Peng looked at the phone suspiciously, confirmed Li Shuhe and replied, "I'm shopping downstairs."

The over there was obviously relieved, and the voice slowed down: "Why didn't you say anything when you went out suddenly?"

Xiao Peng was even more puzzled: "The investigation team asked in the morning, didn't I just call you to ask for the address?"

Li Shuhe thought of such a thing and quickly apologized: "Yes, yes, yes! My fault, my fault! I was so busy in the morning that I forgot about it!"

"Are you back?" Hearing this tone, he must have realized that he was not at home.

Sure enough, Li Shuhe became proud: "Ang! I'm at home! I can't find you when I come back. I thought you were gone!"

Xiao Peng laughed softly: "Where can I go, slipped away? Run away?"

Li Shuhe muttered something that Xiao Peng didn't understand clearly, there must be more people in the family, ordering food must not be enough, Xiao Peng hung up the phone and picked out a few more dishes before paying the bill and going home.

When he got home and opened the door, Li Shuhe sat cross-legged on the sofa with his laptop in his arms and looked at things. When he saw him coming in, he immediately threw away his things and jumped on him to hug him.

Xiao Peng put the bag on the ground and patted him on the back vigorously: "Let go! It's time to cook!"

Li Shuhe let go obediently, and lifted the bag with a smile: "You sit and rest! I'll cook today!"

Xiao Peng followed him to the kitchen, took off the apron on the wall and put it on by himself: "Forget it, after working for so many days, you should take a good rest! Wait for me to cook, it will be soon."

Li Shuhe was forced out of the kitchen when he was still talking, so he could only lean on the door frame and watch Xiao Peng busy inside.

There were fresh noodles in the fruit and vegetable store just now. Xiao Peng bought some eggplant and minced meat and planned to make stewed noodles. He washed the eggplant and skillfully diced it. He quickly peeled the onion, garlic and washed the ginger. , The meat is broken and the eggplant is fried.

Add water to the pot and simmer, and when I turned around, I saw Li Shuhe staring at him in a daze.

"Look stupid?" Xiao Peng waved his hand in front of his eyes.

Li Shuhe grabbed his wrist with his backhand and kissed him: "No, I just think it feels good to have someone to cook when I get home from work."

Xiao Peng curled his lips: "It's enough to get married. Not only will someone cook when you go home, but you can also keep your wife and children warm."

"That's right! So..." Li Shuhe clamped his chin and moved closer, "Mr. Xiao, when will we get married?"

Xiao Peng kicked him: "National laws do not allow it, we should find someone else for the marriage!"

Li Shuhe pulled him into his arms and started to play tricks: "I don't! I'm going to marry you!"

Xiao Peng suddenly fell silent, and Li Shuhe realized something was wrong only halfway through the trick, so he lowered his head and called out softly, "Teacher Xiao?"

"Li Shuhe..." Xiao Peng leaned on his shoulder and whispered his name, "What if one day I can no longer be a teacher and can't stay in Lincheng?"

Li Shuhe's heart tightened, and his arms unconsciously tightened him into his arms: "What happened? Did you say anything during today's talk?"

Xiao Peng closed his eyes and wrapped his arms around his neck and kissed him.

The fire in the stove had been turned off long ago, Xiao Peng hung himself on Li Shuhe, whispered in his ear, "I want you." The man carried him back to the bedroom.

On the quilt was the entangled body of the two, bearing Li Shuhe's enthusiasm, Xiao Peng gritted his teeth and buried his face in the quilt sobbing loudly.Li Shuhe gasped and hugged him: "Does it hurt?"

Xiao Peng didn't answer him but stood up and hugged him tightly, saying "hug me" over and over again.Li Shuhe understood that he was uncomfortable so he stopped talking, bit his lips hard and tried his best to please him.
