Chapter 2 Threatened

The bus door creaked dully, opened and closed, and the bus moved forward slowly.

Crossing the dilapidated Shuinan Old Street and turning right two intersections, Xu Heqi stood in front of his house.

In this era when most people are working hard for an apartment of eighty or ninety square meters, the impoverished Xu family owns an old house with a large area and a yard in this city.

Although the geographical location is not very good, it also makes many people greedy.

The sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the yard grows extraordinarily tall, and its luxuriant branches and leaves stick out of the wall, and the shadows are cast by the afterglow.It's the flowering period in September, and the small golden flowers bloom just right, and the fragrance of the flowers is already tangy before entering the courtyard.

"It can only be this price, sister, your house is big, but the location is too bad, and I'm not good at it."

Xu Heqi entered the door. Besides his mother, there were three strange men standing in the middle of the courtyard. Two of them were wandering around looking at his house, and the other was talking to his mother.

The man's expression was a little helpless, and Xu's mother bowed her head in silence.

Xu Heqi's fingers clenched the strap of his schoolbag unconsciously, and he walked forward quickly.

"Mom, I'm back!"

Mother Xu raised her head and smiled with difficulty, "Xiaoqi is back, you go into the room, I will cook for you later."

"Mom, is this...?"

Seeing the expressions of these three men, Xu Heqi had already guessed what they were here for, but he still pretended not to understand and asked.

Xu's mother licked her dry lips, and said with some embarrassment: "Come and see our house."

"Oh." Xu Heqi nodded, without any objection to this, and obediently greeted the three men, "Uncles, wait a moment, I'm going in to do my homework."

"Sister, this is your son. He is so good-looking and polite." The man at the head looked at Xu Heqi's back as he entered the room, and praised with a smile.

The smile on Xu's mother's face became more real, and she said modestly: "Children, there are no other advantages, just being obedient and sensible."

"At this rebellious age, there are not many sensible and obedient children. You are so lucky." The man continued to compliment with a smile on his face. It's not cheap."

Mother Xu's smile faded away, her brows gradually furrowed, "I'll think about the house again..."

The window of Xu Heqi's house was facing the yard. He didn't go into the room to do his homework as he said, but stood in front of the window and looked at the two people talking in the yard with an unclear expression.

His mother wants to sell the house because of him.

I was thinking about it during the summer vacation, because he was in the third year of high school, and with his grades, there is a high probability that he will go to one of the two best colleges and universities in the country. In order to give him a better future, he was forced to Sell ​​their home.

The Xu family was not so poor at the beginning. Although they were not rich in the past, they were definitely not poor. It was not difficult to support a college student.

Until three years ago...

The accident came quietly, and it easily destroyed a happy family.

It wasn't enough to spend all his savings, and he borrowed money everywhere with his dignity crushed in the mud, but in the end he didn't save his father's life.

——It’s enough, and it’s time to think about the living.

This is what Xu's father said when Xu's mother first thought about selling the house.

He looked at Xu Heqi calmly and benevolently. Wherever he looked, there was his hope and the continuation of his life.

The mother's cries are still in my ears. The house that my father gave up treatment and left for him is now sold for him.

Xu Heqi leaned in front of the window, his unbelievably beautiful eyes became the picture frame, and he deeply engraved the scene of his mother selling the house in his mind.

There is no position to stop it, it can only be hammered into the flesh and blood like nails.

"Xiao Qi, why aren't you doing your homework? Is it too hot in the room?"

After seeing off the three men who came to see the house, Mother Xu turned and entered the house.

She picked the sweet-scented osmanthus in the light of day, washed and dried it for a day, and was ready to soak in water to drink. She took a spoonful of honey and melted it, sprinkled some dried flowers, and it became sweet-scented osmanthus water.

He brought honey water to Xu Heqi, but saw him leaning against the window and was distracted, so he asked him why he didn't do his homework.

"No, it's not hot. I've finished my homework, but my eyes are a little sore, so look out of the window." Xu Heqi just saw the gods, and he didn't pay attention after talking about the house. He came back to his senses when his mother came. Hastily found an excuse.

After receiving the honey water, he frowned and said hesitantly, "Mom, do you really want to sell the house?"

"I'm just looking for someone to take a look. I don't know if it will be sold or not." Xu's mother smoothed his frowning brows, "You just concentrate on your studies and don't worry about family affairs."

Xu Heqi nodded slightly and didn't ask any more questions.

"By the way, I have something for you." He took his schoolbag and opened it, and took out an envelope from it, "This is a bonus from the school."

There was a stack of money in the envelope, roughly looking at more than 1000 yuan.

"Why did the school just start, the school gave the bonus." Mother Xu took it in surprise.

Her son is good at studying, and she knows that he has been able to get scholarships from the school since he was a child. But in the past, he only got it in the middle or the end of the semester. Why did he get it so early this semester.

Xu Heqi smiled and explained: "I didn't finish receiving it last semester. You know that the school is always very slow. It just so happens that grandma needs living expenses. You can just give it to her."

"Our Xiaoqi is really good." Fine lines appeared in the corners of Xu's mother's eyes, and the beautiful eyes of the same style as Xu Heqi were slightly curved, and there was a little light in them.

Although life is poor, but the child is sensible and obedient, she is still very happy.

"After a while, the school should send another sum. This year, someone donated money. The teacher said that the scholarship will also increase a lot."

"Really? Our Xiaoqi is really good!" She repeated the words of praise—"Ouch", and suddenly remembered that she hadn't made dinner yet.

"Xiao Qi, rest well, mom won't bother you anymore, the meal hasn't been cooked yet! Mom is going to reward you with delicious food!"

"it is good!"

With a smile on his lips, Xu Hexi watched his mother leave the room.

When his mother was no longer in sight, the corners of his mouth were slowly pursed into a straight line, and there was no smile in his eyes, replaced by a icy chill.

He lied, the money in the envelope was not a scholarship, but the money he earned from working in a bar during the summer vacation, a total of [-]. Before school started, he took out [-], saying it was to give tutoring to his classmates.

The remaining 1000 yuan was originally intended to be taken out at one time, but it was too much to explain, so I only took out more than [-] yuan.

What made him angry was that his work in a bar was discovered.

——The person who discovered it was Liu Fei, the ten thousand-year-old second child in the school who was always under his pressure.

The school expressly prohibits students from entering and leaving places such as bars, game halls, and Internet cafes. Once found, they will inevitably be demerited.

And if he wants to get a scholarship, he cannot be demerited.

Liu Fei took a photo, and he received a text message from the other party on the way home. The person threatened him that he would deliberately lose to him in the next exam, or that he would lose every time in the next exam. give him.

"Tch..." Xu Heqi sneered, and his pretty face, which always had an obedient expression, showed a touch of disdain and sarcasm.

Just such a waste, I still want to compare with him!If he was really threatened, he wouldn't have to mess around.

but……

Always find a way to destroy the photos.
