his little warmth

Chapter 11 Punishment
Jiang Nuanxing went back with the book in her arms.

Cheng Mu looked at her motionless figure, feeling like he was looking at his wife's stone.

Under the sun, a shadow suddenly came over the ground.

"Brother Cheng, what happened to that book?"

Lin Yu was sitting under the shade of a tree just now, not too far or too close, and happened to see the book.

He then thought of Jiang Nuanxing's identity as a library committee member, so he couldn't help but come over and ask.

Cheng Mu looked back and shrugged nonchalantly, "The book is damaged. The new classmate just came to ask."

it's broken?
Lin Yu's eyes moved slightly, "Did you get burned by the cigarette?"

Cheng Mu didn't answer, but Lin Yu had some guesses in his heart. He frowned, and a trace of regret flashed across his fair and gentle face.

"Brother Cheng, actually..."

"I know it wasn't you."

Cheng Mu turned sideways and interrupted him, his tone not suspicious at all, but his originally careless smile softened a little.

"Remember to tell Aunt Zhang to smoke, it will save me the trouble of reminding her."

Lin Yu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and finally nodded slightly, with a hint of gratitude in his eyes.

Cheng Mu met Lin Yu accidentally.

At that time, he happened to pass by a certain house. The dull sound of flesh lashings and the noise of women shouting and cursing made him couldn't help but go in and take a look.

It turned out that Lin Yu's stepmother Zhang Lizhen was beating him.

In the small room, the floor was full of messes. The thin boy was clearly beaten severely, but he still held the book and remained silent.

Cheng Mu naturally helped him.

Zhang Lizhen has always bullied the weak and feared the strong, so Cheng Mu's warning was not entirely useless.

After the matter was resolved, Lin Yu's uneasy and lowered head was raised again. He looked at Cheng Mu and spoke hesitantly.

"Then Brother Cheng...can you still lend me your library card?"

Every student in the first grade of high school has a library card, but one card can only borrow three books a week. Lin Yu is a fast reader, so he often asks Cheng Mu to borrow them after he runs out of cards.

Including the book just now, Lin Yu also borrowed it using Cheng Mu's library card.

He doesn't need it anyway.

But do you still want to borrow it now?
Cheng Mu's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a casual smile appeared at the corner of his mouth again.

"I won't borrow it anymore. Also," he paused, "Aunt Zhang may have done a good job this time."

"what?"

What does he mean by that.

Lin Yu looked confused and confused.

……

Cheng Mu went to change his clothes and then came to the library.

I don’t know what he said. In the end, Lao Gao not only did not remember his fault, but also happily accepted his apology.

Jiang Nuanxing said it was a bit strange.

Just when she poked her little head out to peek at Lao Gao for the fifth time, she was convinced that Lao Gao was really not angry, but was still drinking tea with a contented look on his face!

But Cheng Mu, who was standing next to her, looked calm... sorting books?
"What did you say to Grandpa Gao?" she asked in confusion.

"Admit your mistake."

Cheng Mu easily finished the top row of books, and then moved to the bottom row, leaving the middle space for Jiang Nuanxing.

"Oh." Jiang Nuanxing stopped talking, because he didn't know what to say, but he felt a little ashamed.

Fortunately, she was just afraid that others would find out and report him, so she hurriedly went out to look for him!
It turned out that she made a big fuss...

"Want to know what I said?"

Seeing her confused look, Cheng Mu stopped tidying up, just squatted on the ground and smiled at her lazily.

His appearance suddenly gave Jiang Nuanxing the feeling of a big cat.

"How do you say..." Well, she was still curious.

But someone just got the advantage and behaved well.

"I'll tell you if you come closer."

"..."

Jiang Nuanxing glanced at the distance between the two.

More than one meter.

She thought for a moment and moved slowly over.

Exactly one meter.

"Okay, you can talk."

Cheng Mu saw all her little movements. He stood up and chuckled. He took a long step and shortened the distance between them.

20cm!
Jiang Nuanxing was a little dazed. Is there anything he wanted to say at such a close distance?
With her expression of surprise, she suddenly remembered that he had just played basketball and was about to retreat, but the expected smell of sweat did not come through.

There is only a faint smell of laundry detergent and air conditioning in the air.

Time seems to pass very slowly, but also seems to pass very fast.

The two of them stood close to each other.

Jiang Nuanxing looked up at him suspiciously, why didn't he say anything?
While he was doubting, a palm suddenly pressed down on his head.

Cheng Mu rubbed her head and said in a good mood.

"I will also be a library committee member from now on, classmate Jiang Nuanxing."
