sweetheart confession

The surrounding atmosphere gradually became weird, and Chen Ruixi was confused by Pei Zhanyang's "obedient".All around looked like wolves and tigers, as if they were going to put Chen Ruixi on the dining table and dissect him one by one.

Pei Zhanyang broke free from Zhang Yuanyao's hand, and took Chen Ruixi to the dining table.Ma Zijun and Shi Junyang looked at each other, seeing different degrees of surprise in their eyes.

Pei Zhanyang has always gone his own way, and will not change his decision easily.Of course he would listen to their advice, but how long have they known Pei Zhanyang, how long has this Chen Ruixi known Pei Zhanyang?

There was no chair prepared for Chen Ruixi at the dining table in advance, so Chen Ruixi took Zhang Yuanyao's seat, and Zhang Yuanyao went out to call the waiter to move another chair and put it on the other side of Chen Ruixi.After everyone took their seats hesitantly, Pei Zhanyang briefly introduced: "This is Chen Ruixi, my friend."

"Pei Zhanyang!" Cheng Ke sat across from him, and there was a big round table between the two of them. Cheng Ke looked at Chen Ruixi's face, "Where do you know such an obedient brother?"

"If he wasn't wearing your school uniform, I would have thought he was a junior high school student."

"You don't know anyone, you just want him to help you with your homework!"

Everyone booed and laughed, and Pei Zhanyang was neither surprised nor angry, and just said to them: "Call the waiter to serve."

Zhang Yuanyao stretched out his hand to take a bottle of coconut juice, and brought it to Chen Ruixi: "Brother, do you want coconut juice or Wangzai milk?"

Maybe it was the illusion brought by Chen Ruixi's appearance and personality. This group of rambunctious boys thought that boys like Chen Ruixi would not like to drink soda, but would only like drinks like milk.But in fact Chen Ruixi didn't like these things, but he didn't want to be troublesome, so he took it and replied politely: "I'll just drink this."

There are still a lot of drinks on the table, and everyone fills up the glasses in front of them.Chen Ruixi narrowed her gaze, and sipped the coconut juice in small sips.

Seeing that Pei Zhanyang's cup was still empty, Zhang Yuanyao raised his voice and asked, "What would Brother Pei want to drink?" Pei Zhanyang took the coconut juice in front of Chen Ruixi and said casually, "I'll drink this."

This move solidified the atmosphere that had finally become active again.Chen Ruixi was wondering what they were surprised about this time, but Pei Zhanyang said suddenly as if he suddenly remembered something: "By the way, he put the band-aid you mentioned last week."

"Puff——" "Puff—cough cough——" "Cough cough——!!"

With so many people at the table, almost everyone choked on the drinks in their mouths.Chen Ruixi noticed that Zhang Yuanyao was covering his mouth and coughing in pain, so he pulled out a few tissues for Zhang Yuanyao in a daze.

"Thank you...thank you..." The irritating drink choked into his nose, and Zhang Yuanyao coughed until tears and snot came out.Chen Ruixi looked around at a loss, and realized that almost everyone was in this state.

"Pei...Pei Zhanyang!" Ma Zijun wiped his face clean with a tissue, and said angrily, "Could you notify us first when we talk about such important matters in the future!"

"Is it important?" Pei Zhanyang glanced at him, but instead dismissed his unsanitary behavior, "It's a good thing there's no food served, otherwise all your saliva would be sprayed on the vegetables."

Zhang Yuanyao had calculated thousands of times, but he never realized that Chen Ruixi was actually the "Pink Band-Aid Girl".His face was flushed, and he decisively clamped Chen Ruixi's neck and hugged him. Chen Ruixi was frightened by his sudden movement and almost knocked over the cup in his hand.

Anyone who knows Zhang Yuanyao knows that he is actually a smart and bad person, unlike Pei Zhanyang who can write his personality on his face.Don't look at Zhang Yuanyao who is always laughing and joking on weekdays, but when it comes to critical moments, he is better than anyone else.

The most direct example is that whenever Pei Zhanyang fights with Lu Zehao, Zhang Yuanyao can always hide in the crowd and make dirty tricks.Sometimes he would bring a bottle of chili water, and sometimes he would bring a knife. Of course, the knife was unsharp, but it didn't stop him from scaring people with it.

Zhang Yuanyao wiped his face clean, leaned into Chen Ruixi's ear and asked sullenly, "What's the relationship between you and Brother Pei...?"

"I asked others, you didn't go to the same school as us in junior high school, and you didn't go to the same class as Brother Pei last semester. Brother Pei's life has nothing to do with you..." The more Zhang Yuanyao looked at this ordinary person, the more he felt Chen Ruixi is not so ordinary, "You can't be from Lu Zehao's side, are you?"

"Brother Pei was blocked by Lu Zehao's people last week, so it wasn't you who went to tip off the news, did you?"

It's not because Zhang Yuanyao has such a big brain, it's because Chen Ruixi is too suspicious.He couldn't get his hands on Pei Zhanyang, so he could only point the finger at Chen Ruixi.

Zhang Yuanyao spoke very softly, he could ensure that Chen Ruixi could hear it, and he could also make Pei Zhanyang hear it less clearly.Listening to his analysis, Chen Ruixi watched him from the corner of the eye, but his expression was not as flustered as before.

"...Me?" His tone was very serious, "Lu Zehao?"

"Yes."

"You're thinking too much." Chen Ruixi retracted her gaze, and quietly looked at the half-drinked coconut milk in front of her.He whispered to him in a soft and calm voice: "If I let Lu Zehao beat me up, I won't let him trouble Pei Zhanyang."

Zhang Yuanyao was stunned suddenly.

"I'm telling the truth." Chen Ruixi was afraid that he wouldn't believe him, so she assured Zhang Yuanyao, "Otherwise, next time you fight, you will bring me along, and I will definitely stand in front of Pei Zhanyang when he gets beaten."

The two looked at each other in silence, and Pei Zhanyang heard the two muttering, but didn't know what they were talking about.He noticed that Zhang Yuanyao was about to put his whole body on Chen Ruixi, and warned: "Zhang Yuanyao, can't you sit upright?"

Chen Ruixi's expression now is very similar to that time last week, when he stood on the back hill and asked Pei Zhanyang, "Did you cut your hair?"Ever since Zhang Yuanyao met Chen Ruixi, all his behaviors have been quite normal. He is afraid when he should be afraid, and shy when he should be shy.However, he occasionally showed his familiarity and intimacy with Pei Zhanyang, so it was difficult for Zhang Yuanyao not to doubt whether Chen Ruixi had known Pei Zhanyang for a long time.

But according to the information, Chen Ruixi had no chance of getting in touch with Pei Zhanyang at all.

If you don't understand it, then don't think about it. Anyway, if you are in front of you, you will be able to ask what you want to know sooner or later.Zhang Yuanyao let go of Chen Ruixi graciously, and said coolly: "Got it—" the waiter knocked on the door at this moment, and the meals were brought to the table one after another.Chen Ruixi tried her best to ignore those curious eyes, picked up her chopsticks and started eating.

As Pei Zhanyang said, no one would hold on to Chen Ruixi when he was present.They would only ask in a roundabout way, bringing the conversation all to him.

"Pei Zhanyang, what's his name?"

"Chen Ruixi."

"In the same class as you?"

"No, he's in class one."

"Aren't all the class in your school... all top students?" Cheng Ke was joking, but Chen Ruixi was really a good student.Everyone looked at each other a few times, but they couldn't figure out what Pei Zhanyang was thinking.

"You really asked him to help you with your homework?!"

It's no wonder that this group of people reacted so strongly, Pei Zhanyang's circle was originally fixed with such a few people.It's not that people can't meet other friends, but even if they do, they won't bring these friends here.

Everyone at the dinner table knew everything, and suddenly Chen Ruixi appeared, so it's no wonder that everyone didn't treat him as an outlier.

"When did I not write my homework?" Pei Zhanyang glanced at him and said indifferently, "Cheng Ke, if you really want to count, there are only three people here who are from Chenghe Middle School. If you go outside, people will think that I am a student." Bully."

"Pfft——" Zhang Yuanyao couldn't control himself, and burst out laughing.

"Hahaha——" There was a burst of earth-shattering laughter in the box.

Chen Ruixi lowered his head, shook his hands, and a piece of veal steak fell into his coconut milk with a "snap".

Ma Zijun laughed so hard that his face went numb: "Pei Zhanyang! I can pass [-] in math! What about you! Which exam did you pass [-] last semester?!"

"Your school's papers are different from ours." Pei Zhanyang was not hurt at all, and he retorted plausibly, "Otherwise, you come to do our school's papers, and I'll see how much you can get in the test."

"Don't be stubborn!" Shi Junyang laughed and dug a hole for Pei Zhanyang, "It doesn't matter which school you do!"

"You really need to find a good student to make up for you! You can save yourself from failing the university entrance exam!"

Pei Zhanyang was not hurt by these vicious remarks at all. He noticed Chen Ruixi who was fishing for veal steak in a cup beside him, and said very naturally: "Then add Chen Ruixi's score to me, and I will be higher than you."

"Pa——" The veal steak that Chen Ruixi finally scooped up with chopsticks fell into the cup again amidst Pei Zhanyang's outrageous words.

The atmosphere at the dining table fell into an eerie silence for the third time. Zhang Yuanyao and the others had received too much fright tonight, and they almost couldn't control their facial expressions.

"Pei Zhanyang..." The corners of Ma Zijun's mouth were raised, but his eyebrows were furrowed, "When did you become so thick-skinned?"

"Isn't he always thick-skinned?!" Shi Junyang yelled, "Pei Zhanyang! Why don't you add Zhang Yuanyao's points to you?!"

"He's the same as me, what's there to add?" Pei Zhanyang said in a disgusted tone, "Don't you look down on me? If you have the ability, you can take the exam with Chen Ruixi. I'll see who of you can pass him."

After a while, the topic at the dinner table changed from "Pei Zhanyang is a scumbag" to "How good is Chen Ruixi's grades".Zhang Yuanyao was talking about what he was doing, and at the same time brought the whole plate of veal steaks on the dining table to Chen Ruixi.

"Don't pinch it." Zhang Yuanyao didn't understand what Chen Ruixi was doing. He picked up the glass of coconut milk with steak in front of him, and replaced him with a new one. "I can see that the blood pressure has risen." .”

There were messy voices in his ears, and Cheng Ke asked loudly: "Pei Zhanyang! Chen Ruixi is Chen Ruixi, and you are you. Why should his score be counted on you?!"

"Because he's my friend." Pei Zhanyang sat firmly on the chair with an extremely arrogant tone, "He doesn't know you, so what does his score have to do with you?"

Holding the chopsticks, Chen Ruixi kept his head down. He told himself in his heart that he should pretend not to hear and never participate in their conversation.Zhang Yuanyao couldn't listen anymore, he raised his head and started to confront Pei Zhanyang: "Brother Pei! Chen Ruixi doesn't know anyone else, but he knows me!"

"It's okay to count his points on my head!"

There was Chen Ruixi between Pei Zhanyang and Zhang Yuanyao, the flamboyant boy passed over Chen Ruixi's head, letting his eyes lightly land on Zhang Yuanyao's face.

He snorted, very softly, but Chen Ruixi, who was sitting very close to him, heard it.

"Are you worthy?"

Zhang Yuanyao: "..."

The meal was noisy, and after the meal, a group of people walked out of the restaurant and prepared to go back to their respective homes.Before they left, everyone greeted Chen Ruixi and asked him to come and play together next time.

Obviously, they didn't get any useful information from the meal this time, and they planned to repeat Chen Ruixi's words next time.Ma Zijun and Cheng Ke really wanted to take Chen Ruixi home directly, but Pei Zhanyang kicked each of them, signaling them to get out of here.

Before Zhang Yuanyao left, he asked Chen Ruixi if he wanted to take him home, but before Chen Ruixi could answer, Pei Zhanyang kicked him directly, telling him to get out of here.

It was completely dark outside, and the two stood at the door of the hotel, their shadows mottled by the streetlights.A gust of cold wind blew, and Chen Ruixi shrank her neck, looking very cold.

Pei Zhanyang looked down at his appearance, and said, "Let's go, I'll take you home."

His words sounded too strong, and Chen Ruixi had no room to refuse.Of course, he never thought of refusing.

Chen Ruixi's home was about a quarter of an hour away from the hotel, and the two walked on the road in silence.Chen Ruixi looked down at the tall and short figures in front of him, his thoughts gradually emptied.

"Aren't they noisy?" The boy walking beside him suddenly asked.

"...Huh?" Chen Ruixi was stunned for a moment, and then replied, "No!"

"Because they are seeing you for the first time, that's why they are so curious about you." Pei Zhanyang is tall, with long legs and quick steps.Chen Ruixi quickly followed him, responding to his words: "Well, I know."

"Where is your home?"

"Go straight ahead, then turn right and you're there."

The atmosphere was quiet for a moment, and Pei Zhanyang spoke again in such a peaceful atmosphere.Perhaps it was because he had considered this matter for a long time, so Chen Ruixi could hear a little hesitation in his voice.

"I have something to ask for your help."

For a moment, Chen Ruixi thought he heard it wrong, but he didn't react, and almost tripped over a stone in front of him.

Pei Zhanyang tugged him quickly, and Chen Ruixi managed to avoid falling to the ground.

"Be careful." Pei Zhanyang held his arm firmly, and the strength from his arm made him feel pain and relieved.

When he saw that he was standing still, he let go of his hand.Chen Ruixi took a deep breath, and asked back in disbelief, "What did you just say?"

"I said there is something I want to ask you for help." Pei Zhanyang coughed, and the always proud boy looked a little uncomfortable at the moment, "Aren't you a good grader? Can you help me make up my lessons?"

Pei Zhanyang's sudden closeness finally had a reason at this moment, and Chen Ruixi's dazed expression well conveyed his current mood to Pei Zhanyang.

"Last week... was the day we met at the canteen. Didn't I get reported and criticized again? Then that night the teaching director called my mom. After my mom hung up the phone, she told me that she planned to send me go abroad."

After winter, there are few pedestrians on the road at night, and the surroundings are deserted.It was absolutely impossible for Pei Zhanyang to say any of these words in front of Zhang Yuanyao or Ma Zijun. Chen Ruixi hadn't recovered from the shock that Pei Zhanyang asked him to make up lessons, and immediately learned that he was going abroad.

"...Going abroad?" Chen Ruixi held his breath in his throat, causing his words to be broken, "You want to go abroad?"

"My mother said that my grades are too bad, so she wants me to change my environment." Pei Zhanyang looked at him with a gloomy gaze, "But I don't want to go abroad at all..." Before Pei Zhanyang finished speaking, he It was interrupted by Chen Ruixi.The taciturn boy in front of him raised his head and said eagerly: "I understand what you mean, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to improve your grades."

Hearing his firm assurance, Pei Zhanyang suddenly felt a little guilty: "You don't need to mention too much, for example, you can score more than [-] in math..." Chen Ruixi seemed to have not heard it, and fell into the trap of "Pei Zhanyang doesn't get good grades, so he can't do it." In the panic of going abroad".His brain was working rapidly, and he immediately formulated a series of detailed plans.

"So when do we start?"

"what?"

"Make up lessons." Chen Ruixi seemed even more anxious than Pei Zhanyang, "Just tomorrow? Tomorrow happens to be Saturday."

Pei Zhanyang originally only wanted to discuss this matter with Chen Ruixi, but he didn't expect him to make the decision for him directly.Chen Ruixi could roughly guess what Pei Zhanyang was thinking by looking at the expression on Pei Zhanyang's face. Seeing that Pei Zhanyang didn't answer, he nodded himself: "Well, you agree, then it's decided."

During this short time together, Pei Zhanyang had this illusion more than once. Chen Ruixi seemed to know him very well, but the two of them obviously had no intersection before.

After all, Pei Zhanyang is the one who holds the initiative, and soon he asked the confusion: "Why do you seem to know me well?"

Chen Ruixi was startled, and lied subconsciously: "I didn't..." The voice of the voice suddenly melted into the dark night, Pei Zhanyang frowned and stared at him.Chen Ruixi pretended to be calm, but a layer of cold sweat oozed from his bent palm.

Pei Zhanyang looked at it for a long time but didn't see anything. He finally looked away, and Chen Ruixi breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing the end of the quarter of an hour's journey, Chen Ruixi pointed to the neighborhood not far away and said, "Here we are."

Pei Zhanyang responded, standing in front of him with his hands in his pockets, and stopped Chen Ruixi before he left.

"Chen Ruixi."

The thin boy turned his head back.

Pei Zhanyang looked at him quietly, and said in a deep voice, "Don't tell others about this."

Whether it's because of going abroad or because of fear of losing face, it's not convenient for Pei Zhanyang's good brothers to know about making up lessons.

Chen Ruixi met his gaze, and the light from the street lamp fell into his eyes, making his eyes bright.

He nodded, pursing his lips into a very subtle smile.He spoke softly, and the intimacy in his words became stronger: "Okay."

Pei Zhanyang looked at him intently, then took out a pure black box with exquisite patterns from his schoolbag and handed it to Chen Ruixi.

"......This is?"

"For you." Facing Chen Ruixi's burning gaze, Pei Zhanyang was rarely embarrassed, "Didn't you win the first prize in the competition? This is a gift for you."
