Chapter 20 The Stubborn Red Rabbit (6)
He nodded, thought for a while, stood up, and replied when he passed Masako: "Okay."

Masako folded her arms in relief, said "thank you", then walked back to her seat, passing by Yi Xialing without turning her eyes.

During the noon exam, the invigilator was replaced by a teacher. Wei Ru didn't realize it for a moment, she bit her lower lip tightly, her ears turned red impatiently, but she didn't dare to stare at Masako, let alone speak more.

The curtains of the conference room opened with a "wow", Masako and Wei Ru sat at the two ends, and the teacher in charge of the exam sat in the middle with his arms folded.

He looked at his watch and signaled the start of the exam.

Time ticked by.

Wei Ru did it in a hurry, time has always been her flaw, and she was thankful that Mo Yazi's right hand was injured, but gradually she found that it didn't affect Mo Yazi's performance at all.

She secretly stared at her free brush strokes, a little surprised, and when she looked over again, she happened to meet Masako's faint eyes.

——That faint, extremely lethal sight that is so faint that it can wipe you away.

"Mo Yazi, are you pretending?" Wei Ru stood up abruptly.

At almost the same moment, Masako put away her pen, glanced at her, pushed the test paper in front of the invigilator, and said, "I'm done, teacher."

"Wei Ru, sit down! It's the exam!" The teacher reprimanded Wei Ru, took Masako's test paper, and turned around and said, "There are only 10 minutes left, hurry up..."

"Teacher, when will the results come out?" Masako asked.

"The test results will come out before school ends, and the student cadres will be called to vote next Monday, and the results will be out."

"Mo Yazi!" Wei Ru stood up and called her angrily.

And Masako pushed the door out without hearing anything, the wind in the corridor blew her hair, she was extremely calm.

The day is finally coming to an end.

During the last class, she received a text message from Xu Yitian: "Masako, how is your health? Shall I take you home?"

She didn't even bother to attend that class, she leaned on the table, and Lu Jian'er helped her get a hot water bottle to put on her stomach, and made her a cup of hot sugar water.

"Masako, drinking this is better for dysmenorrhea..."

She took a sip, held it in her hand, her face touched the cold table, and the rain poured down outside the window.

"How do you reply to Xu Yitian's text message?" Lu Jian'er looked at the content of the text message, "Let him take you home, okay? You are in a bad state today and go back alone..."

"Okay..." After a long time, Masako responded.

The school bell rings.

No matter how heavy the rain is, it can't dampen the excitement of the students returning home. After a while, the teaching building is empty.

Xu Yitian's class had evening self-study, and Lu Jian'er went home first. Masako's abdominal pain has not been relieved, so she can only stay in her seat and wait for him.

In a classroom full of cold air, her forehead rests on her arms, the hot water bottle warms her throbbing belly, and her long hair hangs messily on her shoulders or hangs down.

The wind blew lightly.

Someone walked into the classroom.

Along the way.

Pull out the chair at Masako's front table and sit down.

The familiar voice sounded within her reach: "Congratulations."

She felt a palpitation, and suddenly lost strength in her cold limbs.

She raised her head reluctantly, thinking that it was Xu Yitian who came in, but what she saw was the face of Duan Yousi who looked so good in the rain and fog.

He is back.

He is finally back...

"One concubine got your test paper, you got full marks."

When he said the second sentence, he put his arms on the edge of the table and looked at her pale and bloodless face across a desk.

Masako couldn't speak, the sugar water was already cold.

His hand flipped over Masako's notebook lightly, and the paper made a rustling sound.

Masako has been looking at him seriously, looking at this bastard who has disappeared for 7 days, leaving her helpless and heartbroken, feeling the constant breath in him.

"You looked for me?"

He was still flipping through her notebook and asked casually.

"I've looked for you." Masako replied slowly, "I just found out that you are standing in a place where I can't see, and I can't find you."

After closing the notebook, he put his gaze on Masako's eyes, watching her patience and resentment, this gaze was too direct, as if he was about to see through everything.

She lowered her head and picked up her schoolbag and mobile phone: "I'm going home."

After walking a few steps, he also stood up, faster than Masako grabbed her wrist.

She had to stop, and the two of them were in a stalemate at the window. This kind of behavior similar to holding back made her mood fluctuate a little.She raised her hand to break free, but she didn't hold back his strength, instead she was pulled closer by him.

"You let go."

"Say what you want to say." He looked down at her.

"What do you want to say?"

"speak out."

"So what do you want to say?" The worry and pain that had been accumulated for seven days finally vented, she looked up at him, and was forced to shout out by him, "You have been gone for a week without a single call or text message! Did I say I can't live without you in such a short time? Is that all you want to hear?"

After shouting, the two looked at each other.

Her eyes were very sore, so she had to lower her head and close her eyes, then walked quickly to the door of the classroom.

And he also blocked her very quickly. When she was about to reach the door of the classroom, he reached out and pushed the door, and at the same time grabbed her by the shoulder.

The door slammed shut in front of Masako, she was hugged by him and turned around, he leaned against the door, Masako leaned against him, with one hand around his waist, one hand covering his eyes, in her arms Said in the ear: "Now I'm back..."

She finally cried, and cried very hard when she heard this sentence, her eyes were covered, and the moment she couldn't see anything, she felt extremely relieved.

There was the patter of rain outside the window, and he kissed her hair while she was crying.

And at the moment Duan Yousi closed the door, Xu Yitian walked up the corridor from the corner, looked down at the text message that Masako promised to go home with him, and felt extremely happy.

In the classroom, Masako's shoulders were turned by him, and then she was hugged into his arms.

She lowered her head and covered her mouth, resting her forehead on his shoulder.

On the corridor, the classroom door was tightly closed, and the windows were also tightly closed. Xu Yitian called Masako.

"Ding Ding Ding-"

The phone in her hand rang suddenly, and Masako's tears hadn't stopped yet, Duan Yousi also looked down at her phone screen.

Outside the door, Xu Yitian followed the bell to the door of the classroom and tentatively called, "Masako?"

Duan Yousi took her mobile phone and gently slid it onto the podium.

"Ya..." When he looked through the window again, he found the ding-ding mobile phone on the podium, Xu Yitian sighed, and hung up the phone, "Could it be that I forgot the phone..."

After a while, he smiled wryly: "The text message must have been sent by someone else as a prank..."

12
The taxi stops in front of the stop sign of the community.

Masako saw Li Jie and Xiuxiu's mother walking down the path through the car window, and immediately held Duan Yousi's hand before he was about to open the door.

He looked sideways at her.

"No need to deliver." Masako's answer was very short, even a little flustered, she opened the car door and got out of the car, then turned her head and said, "I'll go home by myself!"

He looked at her avoiding eyes, but said nothing to the driver after all, "Drive."

Li Jie and Xiuxiu's mother had a loud quarrel, she tugged on Li Jie's sleeve all the way, muttering angrily, and drew out the old people from the courtyards on both sides.

"What brains are you talking about! What brains are you! You can do this kind of thing, you..." Before she could swear, she caught a glimpse of Masako coming from the stop sign, and immediately pulled Li Jie stepped forward, "Masako, you're back..."

"Auntie."

Masako greeted her distantly, and then glanced at Li Jie lightly. His expression was very complicated, and he kept avoiding her sight, shrinking his head.

"I'm sorry, Masako, I just heard about it when I came back. Your Uncle Jie's brain is broken for a while, don't mind it!"

"I won't take it to heart." Masako said to Xiuxiu's mother.

"Oh...then..."

"Uncle Jie, please move out tonight."

Li Jie looked very embarrassed, and Xiuxiu's mother paused, and then said slowly: "Masako... Let's discuss this matter again, he didn't mean it..."

"parking."

Seeing her gradually surrounded by neighbors from the rearview mirror, the driver parked the car on the side of the road under Duan Yousi's instructions.He sat on the back seat, quietly watching her thin but straight back.

There were more and more neighbors watching, Xiuxiu's mother seemed to be blaming Li Jie, but she was still pleading for him.

Although Masako's voice was soft, the meaning in the words was very clear.

After repeated persuasion to no avail, Xiuxiu's mother lost her face, and gradually changed her expression, and said meanly in front of those familiar neighbors: "Masako, there are some things that can't just be based on your own preferences. You Jieshu is doing it It's not right, but you can't say so absolutely, he has taken care of your mother a lot these days. Look at your mother, she hasn't been sick these days!"

In the word "morbidity", the pronunciation is very heavy.

"Auntie, I still call you that because I respect you, please don't pester me too much." Masako said to the bottom line.

"What is too entangled? What does it mean?"

When the situation was tense, someone's shoulder was suddenly touched, and the neighbors let out a low sigh.

She turned her head in a daze, and Duan Yousi put his hands in his trouser pockets, stood beside her, leaned close to her ear and said, "Go and sit in the car."

"you……"

He patted her on the head, this action gave her a sense of reassurance, and Masako's original hesitation was melted away by the faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

The taxi was still parked by the side of the road, and he watched her get in the car before slowly turning around, looking at Xiuxiu's mother and Li Jie, who were looking at each other, with a faint sharpness.

Only his back could be seen through the car window, Masako clasped her hands on her knees and looked in his direction.

His back is so slender and confident, and the sleeves of his shirt have been folded a few times, making him look elegant and casual.He was talking, as if he was asking Li Jie what to do.

Li Jie immediately put away his hostility in front of him, and muttered something.While listening, he lowered his head and took out a business card from his wallet, and handed it to Li Jie between two fingers.

Xiuxiu's mother looked down, muttered something, then raised her head and looked at him as if awakened from a dream.Hearing what Duan Yousi said again, Li Jie regained his energy all of a sudden, took the business card with a smile on his face, and bowed several times in a row, as if the matter had been resolved in an instant.

The neighbors around suddenly realized and whispered to each other, Xiuxiu's mother glanced in Masako's direction, her ears were red.

Masako was puzzled.

Before the neighbors dispersed, he walked towards the taxi and opened the door for her.After she got out of the car, she patted her waist lightly and said, "I'll take you to the door."

"What did you tell them?"

"I asked. He is in debt." He closed the car door. "It's not difficult to solve it, just go to the person on the business card."

"The person on the business card... is it?"

"Acquaintances who just happen to have some connections in this regard."

When he said this, he glanced in the direction of Xiuxiu's mother.

"Yazi..." Seemingly understanding the meaning in Duan Yousi's eyes, the witty Xiuxiu mother stopped her apologetically, "I'm so sorry, let Uncle Jie move out of your house today!"

After Xiuxiu's mother finished speaking, she looked at Duan Yousi with palpitations, as if she had to listen to his opinion in everything she did now.There was a strong aura hidden in his eyes, which gradually disappeared after Masako nodded to her.

The neighbors dispersed, and Duan Yousi sent Masako into the community.

His hand was on her lower back all the time, Masako turned her head to look at him, she should have something to say, but she just didn't know what to say to him.

"How do you want to praise me?"

He can always see through her thoughts at a glance, and his words are somewhat teasing.

"Yes." Masako smiled, "But I didn't expect it."

"You are the person next to me, and you are qualified to let me solve anything for you." He squinted and said, stopped, and gradually put his hands back into his trouser pockets, "And now you have to put all your thoughts on another person .”

"Who?" Masako folded her arms.

"Director of the Propaganda Department, Guan Xinyu, your next target is her."

On Friday evening, on the campus after the rain, all the hustle and bustle returned to calm.

The weekly faculty meeting was still going on as usual, the headmaster's office was brightly lit, and An Qiyan was tapping on the table with his fingertips while listening to music with his eyes closed on the elegant black leather chair.

"Buzz..."

The phone in the bag vibrated endlessly.

She sighed softly, opened her eyes, slowly took out the mobile phone from her bag, and put it in her ear: "What's the matter?"

"Yiyan." The girl on the other end of the phone spoke very sweetly, "The grades are out, and Wei Ru is crying so much."

"Ah..." She held her forehead and smiled arrogantly, "Then there is no other way, the opponent's strength is on the table."

"Why, you don't want to help the junior?" The girl laughed.

"How did I say that?"

She picked up the pen in her father's ancient jade pen jar and twirled it between her fingers.

"So who do you favor in Monday's election?"

"Wei Ru has been sitting here for a long time." Her voice fluctuated, "I want to see someone new."

"Are you addicted to playing? An Qi said, beware of attracting foxes into the house."

"Since you can't knock it down, then go gather it up." She said with a chuckle, "The dirtiest thing in this world is the spotless thing, do you understand, student Guan Xinyu?"
