Chapter 7 Headwind Jasmine (1)

She backed up quickly and bumped into the corner of the desk, holding onto the edge of the desk with her hands, her hair snapped off, and Masako's scalp felt sore.

Duan Yousi is obviously a veteran in the field of love. The two had just kissed briefly, and she showed a panicked look all over her body, while he still looked at her with the same calm eyes as before, and the buttons of his shirt were still entangled. Her hair, that look straight into her heart.

There was silence in the classroom.

Duan Yousi stepped forward to approach her, Masako immediately took a step back, her stiff body hit the corner of the table again, making a sound.

He stopped and looked at her quietly.

She turned her head to look at the wall in embarrassment, clutching the hem of her skirt with her hands, feeling uncomfortable all over.

The delicate atmosphere in the classroom was almost breathless. At this time, the class bell came faintly from the second grade teaching building.

Masako closed her eyes and took a breath, followed the bell and walked quickly to the back door of the classroom, opened the door and ran out.He didn't follow, she quickly passed the corridor, the students in class one of the third grade stared at her, and the boys screamed strangely with some meaning.

"Hey, junior! Brother is here!" Wan Ye yelled at her lying on the window.

An Qiyan had already arrived. She was listening to music with her chin resting on her seat. When she saw her, she threw off her earphones and walked to the door of the classroom: "Mo Yazi?"

She ignored no one and disappeared like a gust of wind.

Masako bumped into Yu Qi when she entered the classroom door. He was walking out with a thick stack of homework books, but she was very fast, and with a "click", the homework books fell to the floor.

"Oh..." A few students sitting in the first row sighed.

Yi Xialing smiled gloatingly.

"Sorry..." Masako quickly knelt down to help him pick up his homework.

One of the file bags contained eight clear bold characters of "Yi'an High School Student File". above, then picked it up, and walked out of the classroom as if nothing had happened.

Masako sat next to Lu Jianer, who kept staring at her and asked, "Did anything happen?"

She shook her head with a forced smile, her lips pale.

"Oh..." Although Lu Jian'er nodded, she was still suspicious.

So she changed the subject: "Why does Yu Qi have a student file from Yi'an High School?"

"Hmm..." Lu Jian'er thought for a while and said, "Yi'an and Grai are brothers' schools, and there are often students who go back and forth between the two schools, probably because Yu Qi's mother asked him to Give it to the principal."

"Yu Qi's mother?" she repeated absently.

"Oh, although both Yu Qi and Yu Wenyi are studying in Grai, their mother is Yi'an's teaching director. No matter what you say, Yu Wenyi is not up to date. If she doesn't study well in Yi'an, her mother will lose face. I had no choice but to send her to Grai. It’s not clear what is out of sight. But I didn’t expect her grades to improve and stabilize as soon as she came to Grai. When her mother was happy, she sent Yu Qi here too. You’re joking, Yi An The headmaster must be mad..."

Lu Jian'er laughed vigorously, Masako put her hands on the edge of the table and twitched her mouth.

"Huh?" Lu Jian'er suddenly stopped, pointing at her hair suspiciously, "Why is it a bit messy here?"

She immediately stretched out her hand to smooth the hair on that side, and there was still a faint pain lurking in her scalp.

"It's quite windy in the corridor..." she explained.

"Oh." Lu Jianer nodded without any doubt.

The class bell rang, it was English class.

When the whole class was listening carefully, a loud cell phone ringing abruptly broke the silence.The English teacher frowned and scanned the class: "I told you to turn off the phone in class, whose phone is it? Turn it off quickly, or I will report to your class teacher!"

Everyone in the class lowered their heads, except for Yi Xialing. When she was lying on the table and raised her head in a daze, there were still finger marks on the left side of her face.

The ringtone came from her drawer.

"This time, Yi Xia Ling is dead." Lu Jian'er put one hand to her mouth, gloating in Masako's ear.

The English teacher stared at Yi Xialing, but said nothing, implying that she consciously put the phone away.But people who just woke up were very slow to respond. Not only did Yi Xialing not turn off the phone, but she took it out and looked at it for a while, then pressed the answer button, and put the phone to her ear: "What are you doing? I'm falling asleep!"

The whole class was suddenly silent, Yang Xin and the others simply put down their pens and watched the show.

The English teacher's face was very gloomy, and Lu Jianer snickered beside Masako.

"Really?" Suddenly, Yi Xialing sat upright as if she had heard important news, her eyes widened, "An Qiyan and Duan Yousi fell out again?"

"Pa—" the ballpoint pen refill in Masako's hand flicked back involuntarily.

There was a sound like chair feet rubbing against the floor in the class, and the whole dull atmosphere changed, and the eyes of the students turned to Yi Xialing one after another.

"Yixaling!" the English teacher shouted sharply.

"Why?" Yi Xialing still ecstatically made the phone call, "Ah? What hair? Whose hair?"

Masako watched the English teacher's face turn from red to blue.

Just when the strong smell of gunpowder was about to explode, Yi Xialing suddenly became quiet. She hung up the phone, turned her head, and stared at Masako through the distance of three groups: "Mo Yazi, you are really good, Duan Yousi Seduced by you..."

The classroom was extremely quiet, and Masako felt her scalp go numb, and the eraser in Lu Jianer's hand fell to the table with a "snap".

The English teacher's sharp eyes quickly swept to Masako, and the students in the back seat let out a low hiss.

She lowered her head and clenched the pen in her hand.

after class.

In the office, Yi Xialing's mobile phone was lying on the head teacher's desk, while she herself was standing in front of the English teacher's desk with her head bowed and listening to the training.

Masako stood at the desk of the head teacher and listened to him. The head teacher talked about Masako's studies, Masako's talent, Masako's cuteness, and finally Masako's family situation.

She had been listening calmly, not responding, just nodding.

The class teacher's ideological education was not suspended until the phone on the desk rang. When he answered the phone, he accidentally touched a stack of homework books, and the stack of books fell off.

Masako squatted down to tidy up, and the file bag of Yi'an High School fell out along with the notebook.Its seal has been opened, and one-third of the information paper is protruding from the file bag. There are some students' contact numbers and addresses vaguely. Masako put them away.

After the head teacher hung up the phone, she also packed up her notebooks, and the preparatory bell for class rang.

"Then go back to class first, Mo Yazi, and think about what I told you."

She nodded.

When she walked out of the office, Yi Xialing, who had finished her training a long time ago, was leaning against the wall outside the office and waiting for her. Before she could speak, Yi Xialing said, "Someone asked me to tell you! Be careful of your beautiful hair, little fox."

Masako didn't say a word, Yi Xialing snorted coldly, and left with folded arms.

Far away, the class bell rang again, and the sound was a bit harsh.

This section is physical education.

The sun is like fire.

The students stood in a row and chatted. The teacher whistled again and again in dissatisfaction. When it finally calmed down, the physical education teacher put his hands behind his back, raised his head, and announced to run three laps around the playground.

"what……"

Amidst all the complaints, the teacher put the whistle to his mouth, and there was an irresistible "beep", and everyone ran into the playground complaining.

Lu Jianer jumped happily after running into the playground.

Grai's playground is very large and beautiful, with a green lawn and a bright red rubber runway. In front of the runway is a large spectator stand, just like the kind of grandstand in live sports events. It is tall and has a sense of design.The pine trees outside the runway bring the coolness of summer.

There was a girl behind her talking quietly, Jian'er listened for a while, then looked towards the stands, and grabbed Masako's arm: "Look over there."

She looked over, and the first thing she saw was Duan Yousi sitting in the second row of the stands, with one hand resting on the back of the chair, listening to Wan Ye's speech absent-mindedly.Wan Ye jumped up and down on the seat next to him, as if telling a joke, and the boys and girls lying or sitting in front, back, left, and right laughed from time to time.An Qiyan was leaning on the handrail on that floor, and Yu Wenyi was standing beside her, talking about something, the two of them smiled faintly, and occasionally looked meaningfully in Masako's direction.

"Masako, did you really not provoke them? Why do I think they are targeting you?"

"I don't know." Masako replied.

After running, the physical education teacher announced free activities, and the students scattered around.Masako was about to go back to the classroom, but was blocked by two third-grade girls by the railing, the same two girls who asked her to go out last time.

"I don't want to go with you this time." Standing in the shade of the locust tree beside the playground, she said bluntly to them.

"No need." The girls smiled, "It's settled right here."

This place happened to be the side of the stands. A large flat panel blocked the sight of the students in class one of three years, so few people would pay attention to it.

The sound of basketball throwing the floor echoed on the basketball court accompanied by the shouts of teenagers; boys playing football on the lawn yelled in high decibels;

Everything is so peaceful, but there is an unknown sense of uneasiness.Masako's eyes slowly moved to the back of the girl, and Lu Jianer also stared nervously at the girl's hand hidden behind her back—and just when the atmosphere was about to explode, Yu Qi suddenly appeared.

He stood aside, paying attention to the two girls because of their grades, and regardless of the atmosphere, he suddenly interjected and said, "Hello." Then he asked, "Do you know where my sister is? I'll look for her."

The girl was forced to stop walking towards Masako, and the situation was at a stalemate. Just as Lu Jianer was about to ask Yu for help, the girl grabbed Masako's arm first, and said back to Yu Qi: "It's in the stands, go find it yourself!"

Masako was pulled all of a sudden, she couldn't bear the pull of the two of them alone, they walked quickly and neatly, as if they were familiar with this kind of thing,
They pulled her into the pine forest on the south side of the playground and pushed her to the ground!
The smell of earth permeates this cool pine forest.

Her gray uniform was smeared with mud, and then she heard Jane's scream, she turned her head, just in time to see the girl take out the scissors that had been hidden behind her.

Scissors... turned out to be scissors.

"What are you doing?" Jane shouted palely.

The girl threw the scissors in front of Masako: "Think carefully, do you want us to do it, or do it yourself?"

"I won't cut it." Masako refused decisively.

"Then choose the former!"

"Don't come over here!" Jian'er wanted to block the two girls, but one of them grabbed her hair and dragged her aside.

Masako's shoulder was firmly grabbed by another girl. She grabbed her hair and was about to drop the knife, but at this moment she saw a bruise on the back of Masako's neck.The girl was slightly taken aback, Masako was so angry that she threw back the scissors: "Enough!"

At that moment, her wrist felt cold, and Jian'er cried out in panic.

The tip of the scissors pierced Masako's wrist. She didn't feel it at first, but she didn't feel the sharp pain until the blood gushed out. Masako immediately covered it with the other hand, and the girl who was pushed away sat down on the ground, originally angry Rushing to fight back, he was taken aback at this moment, then got up in a panic with the other person, and quickly ran out of the pine forest with the blood-stained scissors.

The wound was quite deep, and the scarlet blood quickly slid across the skin. Lu Jian'er's face turned pale when she saw it, she couldn't make a sound, and she cried weakly: "I...sick of blood...palpitation..."

The blood kept gushing out, maybe a blood vessel was punctured, Masako's lips were a little pale, a fine layer of sweat had already appeared on her forehead, the soil was stained with a large area of ​​red, and the corner of the pure white shirt was stained with a shocking drop or two. Blood.

Jian'er on the side couldn't move, she could only bite her lip and choked up, "Masako...what should I do? I, I..."

"Mo Yazi..."

At this time, Wan Ye's surprised cry came from the mouth of the pine forest.

She pressed the bleeding wound tightly, raised her head with difficulty, and saw two figures vaguely.

It's Wan Ye and Yu Qi.

"Mo Yazi, just wait, I'll call the teacher!" Yu Qi said, turned around and was about to leave.

"Tell him not to go!" Her throat was so dry that she couldn't make a sound, but fortunately Lu Jian'er heard it, this time she didn't ask the unnecessary "why" and did it right away.

However, it was Wan Ye's turn to ask "why".

She didn't say anything, she curled her arms, lowered her head in pain, and frowned.

At the entrance of the pine forest came the sound of footsteps coming this way again, and then she heard the voice that had helped her again and again.

"Don't let Qiyan come here."

Duan Yousi said so, walked past Wanye and Yu Qi, walked into the pine forest to her side, knelt down and supported her shoulder: "Press the wound, I will take you to the infirmary."

"No..." She grabbed Duan Yousi's shirt corner, "Don't go to the infirmary, don't be in the school, don't let others see, I don't want my mother to know..."

The bangs on her forehead were already wet with cold sweat, and her tone was urgent and chaotic, almost pleading.

He looked into Masako's reddish eyes, and she looked at him too.

Immediately, he looked at Wan Ye: "Tell her that I'm going home."

After speaking, he helped her up and walked towards the back door of the school. Wan Ye shouted from behind: "Tell An Qi that you will go home, will she believe it?"

"It's up to her to believe it or not." He didn't look back.

When the wind blows in the pine forest, it is slightly cool, and it blows towards the face with the smell of Duan Yousi.

Just moving her fingers would feel sore. Masako was tortured by this feeling and opened her eyes, and what she saw was a completely strange room.

She was sure it wasn't a hospital and realized it was his room.

"part……"

"it's here."

She propped herself up and looked towards the place by the window. He was sitting on a large black sofa chair, with his feet resting on the edge of the bed, his left hand resting on the armrest of the chair, and his right hand resting his head, squinting at her. .

The curtains were half drawn, and his chair was tilted so that half of his body was in the twilight twilight and the other half in the dark space.

After the near miss, she was exhausted from the attack. She lowered her head to check her right hand, which was wrapped in gauze.

"What did Qiyan do?" He asked.

"I'm going home..." Masako lifted the quilt and got out of bed, and stepped on the carpet barefoot, "Thank you today, I still won't say it."

He didn't answer, just looked at her without saying a word, without any expression on his face.

After walking onto the street, the wind was blowing in front of her. It should be a warm wind, but it made Masako's forehead feel cool.

She pressed her right wrist, the feeling was really wonderful, and the pain was not very painful, but she didn't dare to use force, the pain on the nerves affected her heart, and it was hard to even raise her hand.

When she got to the side of the road, she sighed and looked tiredly at the passing vehicles.The green light not far away jumped three times, jumped straight up from the yellow light to the red light, and the traffic flow stopped slowly.

A car happened to be parked in front of her. She looked at the shiny black window glass, and her face was clearly reflected.

She kept watching, slowly, unable to look away as if fascinated.

vaguely...

like a breeze...

Why let them bully you, my Masako...

echo……

fade away...

She was slightly taken aback, closed her eyes and then opened them again, her figure and face were still reflected in the car window.That voice seemed to have actually existed.

Hesitantly took a step back, suddenly, a force was exerted on her shoulders, she was startled, and turned around vigilantly.

"The reaction is so strong." Duan Yousi's voice was as lazy as usual, and it was hard to hear any other emotions.

Masako breathed a sigh of relief: "What are you doing down here?"

"Take you home." As he said, he had already opened the door of the taxi ahead and looked sideways at her.

Under the setting sun, his shadow stretched obliquely, and Masako stroked his arm against the cool evening wind, hesitating whether to get in the car or not.If you go, how do you face the situation of being speechless all the way; if you don't go, should you really refuse suspiciously?

But before she opened her mouth, Duan Yousi stopped her. He seemed to understand her thoughts at a glance, and added two words: "By the way."

I'll take you home by the way.

Masako just got in the car.

In the car, she did not say anything. Masako's new home is in a relatively remote residential area.Although it is remote, it is also here.At the end of the evening, Duan Yousi patiently sent her to the door of the house.

When he was about to enter the small courtyard, he held her left hand. This was probably the first conscious contact. Masako turned her head and watched him take out a gray silk ribbon from her trouser pocket. It was hers. bow tie.He put it in her palm, and then slowly let go of her hand.

There was a strange warmth in the wrist held by him. After he left, this warmth did not disappear, but continued to spread until it made her dizzy.

"You must not like Duan Yousi, if you like him, the girls will suffer!"

"Although Duan Yousi is the most handsome boy in the school, he is also a very irresponsible boy. He has played with many girls, but he has never been serious!"

That night, Lu Jianer's words were over and over again in her mind.

In the early morning of the next day, Masako decided to go to school even though the injury on her hand hadn't recovered and it was very difficult to move.

Outside the stone wall of the small courtyard, when she opened the courtyard door, Xiuxiu's mother from the neighbor's house was walking past the courtyard with a small schoolbag in one hand and Xiuxiu's little hand in the other.

"Morning sister!" Xiuxiu cried out childishly when she saw her, her pink face had her eyebrow-length bangs cut a few days ago, she was very cute.

"Morning." She smiled lightly, looking at Xiuxiu's mother, "Morning, Auntie."

"Go to school, Masako?" Xiuxiu's mother smiled a little reluctantly, and specially held Xiuxiu's hand tightly to prevent her from running around.

"Ah."

"Is your mother feeling better?"

"It's much better." She said, "It's just that her body is still a little weak, so I don't want her to go out."

"Oh……"

As Xiuxiu's mother was about to leave, Masako offered to ask, "The make-up lessons I talked about last time..."

"Oh hehe..." Xiuxiu's mother immediately waved her hands and smiled, "No need Masako, you are also quite nervous about studying, we Xiukai have already found a tutor for remedial lessons, no need, no need, thank you."

Masako stopped talking and nodded slightly.

During the class break, the classroom was very noisy, Lu Jianer stared at her hand wrapped in gauze, gasped and asked, "Does it hurt?"

While looking at the notes that Lu Jian'er helped her organize yesterday, she shook her head nonchalantly.

"It must be An Qiyan!" Lu Jian'er complained with her chin resting on her hand.

"Jane." She frowned as she looked at the rough mathematical reasoning process in the notes, "Is this how you take all your notes?"

"Uh-huh!"

"You missed a lot."

"I'm not good at math, and I can't understand, and the teacher keeps saying that I can't listen in time!"

"This way..." Masako closed the notebook, "Don't take notes in class from now on, the point is to listen, I can prepare the notes for you, and you can read them when you have time."

Jian'er's eyes lit up immediately: "Masako, you are so kind!"

She smiled.
