adversity girl

Chapter 5 His Appearance

The boy suddenly jumped up from his seat, and said as he walked, "Yes, yes, yes, I forgot, I haven't done it yet."

After the boy finished speaking, he ran out of the classroom. Yan Manjia quickly grabbed his sleeve and said with a sigh of relief, "The office is locked."

The boy scratched his head and returned to his seat in frustration.

It was lunch break time, and the students who were still making noise saw Gu Zhi passing the corridor outside the window. The students sitting next to him hurriedly reminded the students who were talking to lie on the table and pretend to sleep. After a few seconds, they quietly opened their eyes and looked at Gu Zhi. As soon as they walked through the classroom, they relaxed, and then became noisy again.

The boy in blue walked to the door of the classroom hesitantly. He was nervous and afraid that Gu Zhi would teach him a lesson, but he also knew that it would be worse if he didn't go. He took a deep breath outside the classroom and walked into the office.

There is a scarred soul sleeping in this ordinary girl's heart. When she is exhausted, she will choose to sleep in her own consciousness space. Now that she wakes up, the sleeping soul is Yan Manjia herself.

The lunch break was over and the bell rang for the end of get out of class.

When Yan Manjia woke up, the first thing she did was to open the book on the desk. On it was another thing she wrote with a pencil about what happened to her in school after she fell asleep.

One body with two souls is Yan Manjia.

Lively and cheerful, the one who insists on herself is the disguised character of a soul guarding Yan Manjia, another self in her heart, she has no name.

It was she who was depressed and not good at speaking. When she was on the verge of desperation, another self appeared to care for her, so she did not disappear in this cold world.

The only thing that cares about her is another self in her heart, no one else including relatives.

After class, she didn't leave the classroom, she just stood there quietly looking at the scenery outside the window, she was not interested in frolicking outside the classroom, she really didn't want to face the world, but for another self she chose to live in this world Her disappointed world.

After school was over in the afternoon, Yan Manjia hurried out of the school gate and ran home. Panting, she climbed the stairs, opened the door and saw her father sitting on the sofa watching TV leisurely, she quickly changed her shoes, and walked into the kitchen. The dishes were not washed after eating.

She looked at the clock on the wall and there was still half an hour left. She seized the time to prepare the dishes and then hurriedly stir-fried them in the pan. In other homes, the parents prepared the meals and waited for the children to go home to eat, but she got up in the morning to cook the noodles and serve them. In front of his bed, still can't wake him up.

In the evening, when she came back from school to make dinner, if she didn’t do well, she would have to make it again. Yan Manjia brought the dishes and rice to the table in the living room. She stood aside, clasping her hands nervously. Dad glanced at her and took the Picking up his chopsticks, he took a bite of the dish, chewed a few mouthfuls and spit it out on the table. Very angry, he threw the chopsticks hard on the table and asked Yan Manjia to do it again.

Yan Manjia quickly picked up the chopsticks, re-prepared the ingredients in the kitchen and started cooking. She looked at the clock on the wall, and it was less than 2 minutes before the class started.

In the classroom, the Chinese teacher who was giving a lecture looked at the only vacant seat in the classroom and sighed, then continued to teach the text.

Gu Zhi happened to pass by the classroom, looked at the absent seat in the window, raised his hand to check his watch, and left the teaching building.

A gust of evening wind blows the hair of the girl running on the street, and the evening dusk is reflected on the girl through the gaps in the houses.

Strangers walking with children glanced at her casually.

Soon the girl ran to the school gate, she didn't notice the pebbles on the ground, she fell to the ground suddenly, Gu Zhi who walked to the school gate saw it, and he hurried to Yan Manjia at a very fast pace, Wanted to reach out and lift her up.

Yan Manjia got up by herself. She didn't look up at Gu Zhi, but shook her head with a smile. Gu Zhi frowned slightly as he looked at Yan Manjia's back and the unremarkable blood stains on the ground.

Yan Manjia didn't even look at the scratches on her hands. She patted off the dust on her trousers, and then gently patted the dust off her hands. Walking in the silent campus aisle, she became less hurried, as if she was in a hurry. Enjoying this moment of silence, she thought of the hand just now, and recalled the past.

After cleaning the school, Yan Manjia went to the toilet after cleaning the classroom. When she walked up the toilet stairs, a bucket of water poured down from the stairs. Fortunately, Yan Manjia only took a few steps. The water just wet her shoes and trousers, and the girl who splashed water hastily apologized.

"fine."

Yan Manjia said with a smile in a generous and melodious voice.

Seeing Yan Manjia walking past her, the girl splashing water splashed the water on Yan Manjia's back blue dress. The girl envied Yan Manjia's face, hated her generosity, and envied her soft voice.

The sanitation in the toilet is not over yet. Several girls are still cleaning. Yan Manjia walks carefully to the end of the innermost toilet. The cleaning girls are progressing very slowly. There is a row of toilets in the inner trash bin next to the pit. It piled up into a mountain and was not cleaned. There was still freshly poured water on the ground, but it was polluted by the dirty footprints of people passing by, and it became very dirty. After Yan Manjia went to the toilet, two girls came in and held it with one hand. The mop mopped the floor, very reluctantly.

When Yan Manjia passed by, one of the girls swung the mop towards her hind feet, and she was tripped by the mop and fell to the ground. Yan Manjia collapsed on the ground full of water. The girl looked at Yan Manjia in a panic The look of laughing.

Another girl with a high ponytail hurried forward and reached out to support Yan Manjia. Yan Manjia looked up at the hand illuminated by the light, and clenched it without hesitation.

"Thanks·····."

Yan Manjia smiled happily, her lovely dimples appeared faintly, but before she finished saying thank you, that girl not only let go of her hand, but also kicked Yan Manjia vigorously with her feet. Manjia's stomach, Yan Manjia was very surprised, and fell heavily on the cold ground.

The few girls who cleaned the toilet perfunctorily finished cleaning the toilet and left. No one took a look at Yan Manjia. Although one girl wanted to help Yan Manjia, she didn't have the courage. She was afraid of being isolated by them.

"let's go."

A few cold words hit Yan Manjia's heart at once.

The corners of Yan Manjia's mouth were raised, looking desperately at the small sunlight coming in from the small window on the wall, slowly raised her hand to cover the sunlight, and laughed out loud tears were rolling in her eyes, she didn't get up, closed her eyes and cried It dripped into the muddy water from the corner of her eyes. She was not crying because of the pain, but because the world was unwilling to give her even a little bit of kindness, not even a little bit of care.

"Tell me how long you've been late. This time it's even more extreme, longer than usual."

In the office, the head teacher was scolding Yan Manjia. Yan Manjia lowered her head and looked at the floor, pursing her lips lightly. The head teacher asked Yan Manjia to stand outside the classroom as a punishment. This class was chemistry, and Gu Zhi took it. Walked up to Yan Manjia with the textbook and asked her to return to her seat for class.

"The head teacher made me stand here as a punishment."

Yan Manjia looked up into Gu Zhi's eyes and said.

"This class is mine, I have the final say, go back."

There was a trace of seriousness in Gu Zhi's tone, but it seemed to be a little gentler.

He stood at the door of the classroom, waiting for Yan Manjia to enter the classroom on his own initiative, and then he would start lecturing.

Yan Manjia saw Gu Zhi standing beside her motionless, but she had no choice but to walk into the classroom and sit in her seat to listen to the class.

Yan Manjia pretended to listen to the class very seriously and took notes.

In this way, the evening class was over. Yan Manjia was walking in a remote alley. She didn't want to walk on the street talking and laughing. She liked the quiet alley without any sound. But as she walked, she heard There was a sound of footsteps behind.

She stopped and listened carefully to the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer. She held her schoolbag tightly with both hands, held her breath, and did not dare to move. She could only hear her heart beating violently, deeply exhale.

Looking at the flickering street lights in front of her, when she was about to run, a hand suddenly grabbed her, held her mouth, dragged her to the depths of the alley, Yan Manjia opened her mouth and bit his hand.

"who are you?"

Yan Manjia didn't run away or call for help, but asked who the boy wearing the black duckbill cap was.

Xiong Renfeng was very angry. He never expected that she would pretend not to know him, which made his original anger worse and turned into embarrassment.

He blocked Yan Manjia in the corner of the alley and smoked. The thick smoke made Yan Manjia very uncomfortable. She hugged her schoolbag tightly in her arms. She quickly got up and wanted to leave, but was caught by Xiong Renfeng. Pushing the hand onto the plaster wall, Yan Manjia fell heavily on the wall.

Xiong Renfeng realized that he was using too much force. He seemed to be a little shaken when he saw Yan Manjia's uncomfortable expression. Under the flickering small lights in the alley, his eyes were attracted by the girl's fair and small face. Seeing that she seemed to be putting on innocent and pitiful eyes, he recalled that in school, because of seeing this girl in front of his eyes, he would make himself faceless in front of his brothers, and he would be furious.

He flicked the cigarette ash on Yan Manjia's face, threw the cigarette on the ground casually, stepped on the unextinguished sparks of the cigarette butt with his toes, brought his face in front of Yan Manjia, grabbed the dirt on the ground and wiped it on Yan Manjia. Jia's face was like a mud mask, leaving only the eyes and nose to breathe.

"I just want to rub your fair face with mud, and let you taste what I was like at that time."

Xiong Renfeng gritted his teeth and said.

"What are you doing."

Xiong Renfeng immediately stood up, looked around in a panic, swallowed nervously, and there was a tall and powerful man standing under the flickering lights.

"Do you want to be punished?"

Gu Zhi said in an iceman's tone, under the light, through the glasses, he could clearly see his serious expression.

Xiong Renfeng took a look at Gu Zhi and hurriedly pushed down his hat, covering his face tightly, and ran away in despair.

Yan Manjia glanced at Gu Zhi, leaned on the wall and slowly got up and left the alley, she didn't want Gu Zhi to know it was her.

"Yan..."

Gu Zhi wanted to call Yan Manjia to stop, but he also guessed that Yan Manjia didn't want him to know it was her, so he watched Yan Manjia's back as she walked upstairs,
Yan Manjia returned home and saw her dirty face through the mirror in the bathroom. She thought that Teacher Gu would not recognize her, so she washed her face clean and looked up at herself in the mirror. After a while, she softly opened the door and walked out of the bathroom, came to the kitchen, turned on the light, there was still uneaten food in the pot, the rice cooker was not washed, and the dishes and chopsticks were still lying safely in the sink.

She rolled up her sleeves and worked hard.

After a long time, she finished washing, went back to the room and lay on the bed, tossing and turning, thinking whether to let the other self come out, she didn't want to let the other self suffer unnecessary harm because of her own affairs.

She got up and sat in front of the table, took out her notebook, picked up a pen, and was hesitating whether to tell her other self what happened tonight. She recalled what her other self told her about what happened at school during the day. Could the boy in the black duckbill cap be another boy I met outside the toilet, opened the curtains, and looked at the looming moon outside the window.

In the teacher's dormitory of the school, Gu Zhi stood on the balcony and looked up at the moon. The looming moonlight shone on the balcony. Looking sideways, he saw that the outline of the face was fine and clear, with a monotonous white shirt and a straight nose under the glasses.

Holding a cup of warm milk in her slender hands, she took a few sips of milk with her petal-like mouth, revealing the depth of her facial features under the moonlight.

Suddenly, a mobile phone ringing broke his mood of admiring the moon.

He returned to the room, picked up the mobile phone on the bed and answered the call.

"Hey."

Said lightly, took a sip of milk, his expression froze, and his eyes stayed in the milk.

"Then prepare to take the test and wait for me to come back."

After speaking, he threw the phone on the bed, put the milk gently on the table, and walked to the bathroom to close the door.

After a while, there was the sound of running water, and the bathroom was full of fairy air.

The next morning, Yan Manjia got up early, after washing, cooked the noodles, carefully opened the door of Dad's room, put the noodles on the bedside cabinet, quietly walked out of the room, closed the door, and changed Clothes, took the schoolbag and went to school for morning class.

The sun rises slowly, marking the beginning of a new day. Walking from the east to the west, the sun sets slowly, marking the end of the day, and night falls quietly.

The evening self-study was over, but the Chinese teacher asked the students who had not finished reciting classical Chinese to stay. Yan Manjialiu was the last one to leave the classroom. Yan Manjia locked the door and turned to leave when she saw him.
