After eavesdropping on my thoughts, the whole family went crazy.

Chapter 32 Past Events

"And there's dad!" Su Xuanren didn't miss any opportunity to express his father's love. "If anyone dares to bully you, dad will kill them."

The two of them unanimously forgot about Su Tianliu.

Now that I’m such a big boy, it’s time to take on some pressure from outsiders!
"Thank you, Mom and Dad." Su Ran said in her heart, with a smile on her face, "I have a good life in the academy, no one bullies me."

The couple gave a few more instructions, nothing more than that if you are bullied, go to your third brother and ask him to call you back.

Su Xuanren wanted to say something more, but a man in black came in with something to report. Su Ran and Hua Rongqi found an excuse to leave.

"Your parents are so kind to you." Halfway through, Hua Rongqi suddenly said something with emotion.

"Ah." Su Ran was stunned for a moment. He wanted to say some words of comfort, but was afraid of exposing his sad past. In the end, he opened his lips and said nothing.

Hua Rongqi's soft voice sounded in my ears: "I have no parents."

Su Ran: "I can tell."

"." Hua Rongqi was obviously stunned for a moment, and most of the sad atmosphere he had managed to exaggerate was gone, "How did you tell?"

Su Ran thought for a while and said, "If the family atmosphere is good, parents wouldn't be the scapegoats over and over again, right?"

Hua Rongqi: "."

He obviously also thought of what he had said before, "Mom and Dad, my daughter is so miserable" and "My brother has had unique habits since he was a child, and his parents really miss him", and he fell silent immediately.

Hua Rongqi stopped speaking. Su Ran was wandering in his mind and stopped talking.

Su Ran thought that today would end like this, but before going to bed, she saw a figure sneaking around in front of her window.

"What are you doing?" Su Ran leaned against the door frame and looked at Hua Rongqi, who was squatting in the corner, expressionlessly.

Suddenly hearing a voice, Hua Rongqi was so frightened that he leaned back and almost fell to the ground: "Why are you walking silently?"

What he said was really unreasonable.

Su Ran crossed her arms across her chest and spoke in a calm tone, with no hint of emotion or anger: "Some people don't do bad things, but are they still afraid of ghosts knocking on the door?"

"No." Hua Rongqi retorted with a serious expression, "I am the one who knocked on the door."

Su Ran: "."

Neuropathy! This person's brain circuit has never been normal from beginning to end!
Su Ran: "What's wrong with you coming here?"

Hearing this, Hua Rongqi looked up at the moon. Unfortunately, there were dark clouds tonight, the sky was like a black cloth, and there was no shadow of the moon at all.

So Hua Rongqi turned to look at Ye Mingzhu in the yard: "No big deal, just passing by."

"I stopped by to see if you were secretly doing your homework behind my back." When Hua Rongqi said this, he obviously lacked confidence.

Su Ran: ".I didn't write it!"

Su Ran was really puzzled.

Let's not talk about the most basic trust between people, but as far as Hua Rongqi is concerned, he doesn't look like someone who cares about this?

Is he still afraid of being punished for not doing his homework? ? ?
Su Ran was quite shocked and puzzled.

Hua Rongqi did not explain too much, but breathed a sigh of relief: "I knew you wouldn't lie to me."

Su Ran: "."

Hua Rongqi stood up to leave, but before taking a few steps, he turned back and said, "Don't write secretly in the middle of the night."

Su Ran: "."

"What if I secretly write that I am a puppy?"

Although he was not angry at first, Hua Rongqi said with a serious face: "It's a deal."

What responded to him was the figure of Su Ran slamming the door and returning to her room.

Early the next morning, Su Ran thought that the beautiful face would disappear, but as soon as she went out, she was faced with a fair and beautiful face.

Su Ran: "."

"It's so early in the morning, where are you doing this?"

"Waiting for you to go out together." Hua Rongqi said matter-of-factly: "I stopped by to see if you got up early to do your homework."

Su Ran took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound calm enough: "I haven't written. I can't write. I won't write secretly behind your back. You don't need to guard against me like a thief."

When Hua Rongqi heard this, he didn't care about the speechless choking in her tone. Instead, he responded in a good mood: "Oh."

This made Su Ran feel like a punch on cotton, and she couldn't help but ask: "Isn't it just a homework? What are you afraid of?"

"It's not about homework." Hua Rongqi sighed softly, a haze forming between his brows and eyes, as if he was recalling some bad memories.

Su Ran heard him say: "It's your attitude behind it."

Su Ran yelled and hit the nail on the head: "You were stabbed in the back."

Hua Rongqi: "."

"Can you stop guessing so accurately every time? All the emotions I have worked hard to brew are gone."

Su Ran spread his hands and said, "I can't help it, I have the ability to read minds."

After all, he is also his follower. Su Ran felt that it was necessary to care about the mental health of his follower: "What happened to you before? Why don't you tell me about it?"

"It's nothing." Hua Rongqi lowered his eyebrows and said in a nonchalant tone: "There was, uh, a mission before. The person I was traveling with made an appointment to let go of a small puppy quietly, but he reported it as soon as he returned. Me."

He spoke intermittently, and it was not difficult to hear the hidden meaning in his words.

"What happened next?" Su Ran asked softly.

Hua Rongqi said: "I almost died."

"Our elders are very taboo about someone being disobedient because there are too many children, so our lives are particularly worthless in their eyes."

After a while, Hua Rongqi continued: "After I was reported, the elder was very angry. Maybe he wanted to scare the monkeys. He called everyone over and punished me in public."

"There is a whip mark on my back, that's what it left. In fact, it can be eliminated with medicine, but I prefer to keep it as a reminder to myself."

"After I was punished, I developed a high fever and no one gave me medicine."

"I didn't want to die like this, so I took it."

"That puppy was actually passing by. I think the reason why the elder was so angry was because I disobeyed his order."

"Not long after, I learned from others that the puppy was still dead. It was killed by the person who was traveling with me."

Su Ran listened quietly, and until Hua Rongqi stopped talking, she asked: "Where are the people who were traveling with you at that time? Did you take revenge?"

"Of course." Having said this, Hua Rongqi smiled for the first time today: "During an outing mission, I killed him with my own hands."

"He is not as capable as me, so when the elders knew about this, they didn't punish me much."

Su Ran praised: "Well done."

At least it's not some wimpy story that raises blood pressure.

"Huh?" Hua Rongqi didn't react, "Don't you think I'm cruel in retribution?"

Su Ran thought about it seriously and finally shook her head: "Don't you think he thought about the consequences when he reported you?"

"He just wants your life. If that's the case, you might as well get over it."

Hua Rongqi laughed out loud: "Yes, I think so too."

Seeing that the other party was in a relaxed mood, Su Ran changed the topic: "But I think you have a little PTSD." "What?" Hua Rongqi didn't understand, "Piti. What?"

"Uh." Su Ran subconsciously used this word, forgetting that the environment was different for a moment, "It's just a psychological shadow."

"A type of post-traumatic stress disorder, where you've been deeply hurt by something and then, when you encounter something like this again, you become, well, overreacted."

For example, this matter now is just an ordinary homework!
Are we so nervous? !
Hua Rongqi raised her eyebrows slightly, waiting for her next words.

Facing the other party's scorching gaze, Su Ran said sternly: "Homework is just a small matter, no one will punish you for it, you don't have to be so worried."

"And I won't backstab you either."

[——The premise is that you don’t do anything sorry for me. 】

Su Ran silently completed the second half of the sentence in her heart.

Hua Rongqi was not moved by Su Ran's words: "I have to correct you on one thing."

Su Ran: "Say."

Hua Rongqi: "Master will punish us for this."

Su Ran: "."

are you crazy! ! !

Can the Master’s punishment be the same as your original punishment? !
This episode made the atmosphere between the two people lively again. The two of them tacitly agreed not to mention the past, but discussed what to eat for lunch like ordinary students.

"I think you talked about this topic a little too early." Su Ran poured cold water on him.

Under Hua Rongqi's puzzled gaze, Su Ran said calmly: "Let's not talk about what the academy has at noon. The question is whether we can grab it."

Hua Rongqi: "."

That's what I say, but——

"Isn't it Chen Ziyu who didn't grab the meat and vegetables yesterday?" Hua Rongqi is very confident in his speed: "Don't worry, with my speed, I have the entire canteen to choose from."

"If you can't grab it, I can reluctantly share it with you."

Su Ran raised her eyebrows: "Don't worry, I won't be able to grab it even if you can't grab it."

Su Ran is also very confident in his speed.

What a joke, has she been a student for so many years for nothing?
Since junior high school, when have you not rushed to the cafeteria at a life-or-death speed?
So, when they both finished cleaning up and saw Su Tianliu waiting by the carriage, Su Ran's first reaction was:
[In terms of speed, Chen Ziyu is the slowest, right? The third brother is second to last. 】

Su Tianliu, who has never been second in his life: ".?"

No, I've never even been second, so why am I second to last? ? ?
This gap made Su Tianliu couldn't help but cast his scrutinizing gaze on Hua Rongqi.

Feeling the tangible gaze on her body, Hua Rongqi looked up and met Su Tianliu's gaze.

Su Tianliu: What are you talking about?
Hua Rongqi: What? Do you also know that your sister doesn’t do her homework?
Conversation failed.

Fortunately, Su Tianliu didn't remain confused for long before Su Ran took the initiative to confess in his heart.

[But I can’t say for sure. Maybe it’s because young geniuses like Third Brother don’t care about these appetites. 】

[So I don’t bother to grab food like us. 】

Su Tianliu: "."

No, I care.

Young geniuses also need to eat.

Even a powerful person like dad still needs to eat!
And when you see the people in the academy, no matter how much they are outside, they still have to grab food when they get to the academy?
"Today we have sweet and sour pork ribs and soy sauce pork ribs for lunch today." Su Tianliu glanced at Su Ran calmly, trying to clear up the other party's misunderstanding about him, "We will go directly to the cafeteria after class."

"Third brother, how did you know?" Su Ran asked in surprise.

Su Tianliu said: "I have studied the menu rules of the canteen before."

[Damn it, is this the awakening of a young genius? Decathlon! 】

[Even studied the canteen recipes! ! ! 】

Su Tianliu: "."

This misunderstanding cannot be eliminated.

"Okay!" Su Ran was shocked in her heart, and she did not forget to compliment Su Tianliu, "I love sauce elbows!"

The sister in front of him was so innocent, romantic and innocent. Su Tianliu couldn't bear to blame her, so he could only sigh silently in his heart.

In fact, young geniuses also have appetites.

In fact, young geniuses are not as versatile as you think.
Studying recipes purely for my own mouth.

That's all, if she misunderstood, just misunderstand.

Su Tianliu stopped worrying about these things, and suddenly remembered another thing, and asked: "I listened to Chen Ziyu preaching to you last night. Confucius arranged a strategy?"

"Confucius' homework has always been difficult, why didn't I see you come to ask me?" Su Tianliu was a little regretful and wanted to use this to show off his knowledge.

There was no hint of guilt in Su Ran's tone for not doing her homework, and she said calmly: "No need to ask."

Su Tianliu was a little surprised, but more importantly, he was proud.

His sister has been living outside for so many years, but it has not slowed down her growth at all. His sister is the smartest!
Before Su Tianliu had time to be happy, he suddenly heard Su Ran's heartfelt voice:
[I didn’t plan to write it at all, so why ask. 】

Su Tianliu: "."

Why is this going in this direction?

"Did you finish writing successfully?" Su Tianliu was heartbroken, but on the outside he maintained the appearance of a good brother who cared about his sister.

Su Ran blinked and said in a nonchalant tone: "I didn't write it."

After saying that, she didn't forget to tease Hua Rongqi: "Hua Rongqi didn't write anything, we made an appointment."

Hua Rongqi: "."

Although, but, is that what it says? ?

Didn't the look in your brother's eyes almost kill me? !
Hua Rongqi turned his head, lifted up a corner of the curtain, pretended to be obsessed with the scenery outside the window, and began to pretend to be dead.

Even though Su Tianliu's eyes have a strong sense of presence, Hua Rongqi's ability to play dead is not far behind.

After a period of silence, Su Tianliu discovered that Su Ran had also imitated Hua Rongqi's example, lifted up the curtain on her side and began to look at the scenery outside the window.

Su Tianliu: "."

This bitch must have led his sister astray! ! !
Su Tianliu endured it again and again, so he didn't pick up Hua Rongqi's collar and beat him up on the spot.

In the end, Su Tianliu only said this: "Confucius has always been famous for his selflessness."

The implication is that he will not turn a blind eye to you just because you are the princess of the royal palace. You should be punished.

"Ah." Su Ran turned around, "How does he usually punish students?"

This is about Su Tianliu's comfort zone.

"It's okay. If you don't do your homework, you will usually ask your parents. If you plagiarize your homework, you will be punished and your parents will be invited."

"If you disrupt classroom discipline, it depends on the situation. The first offender will be punished by standing at the back of the classroom, the second offender will be punished by standing in the corridor, and the third offender will ask the parents."
