Chapter 24(1/2)
Shi Li froze for a moment, and the hand holding him couldn't help but let go a little. Chen Jingyan supported the ground and stood up slightly, looking at her face with a heavy gaze.
After the two of them were silent for a while, they suddenly seemed to have reacted and got up from the ground in panic and sat on the ground in silence.
After a while, Chen Jingyan whispered: "The information I want is in the first drawer under the desk, the one with the kraft paper bag."
"Oh, oh okay, I'll go and get it for you." Shi Li said, and got up from the ground with his hands and feet, and trotted to the study room. When she twisted the door handle and pushed it open, she froze for a moment, and then she broke out in a cold sweat. The initial door was locked, but she rushed out and completely forgot to lock the door. If it was suddenly opened, everything would be finished.
She smiled and turned around, as if she saw something thoughtful in Chen Jingyan's eyes. But after looking carefully, she found that there was nothing: "That... the door is locked, where is your key?"
"Here." Chen Jingyan took it out of his pocket.
Shi Li ran over to get the key. When she returned to the entrance of the study, she pretended to open the door, but in fact she just poked the key. She ran into the study and took the information he wanted, then ran out in three steps and two steps, handing him the paper bag.
"Thank you." Chen Jingyan said stiffly.
Shi Li nodded hurriedly, not daring to look at his eyes, for fear of revealing his guilt. Chen Jingyan glanced at her deeply, and then left with the information bag.
As soon as he left, Shi Li completely relaxed and touched the place where he had just been kissed, his eyes were a little straight. Chen Jingyan's reaction just now was too strange. According to his current personality, he accidentally kissed her, and he should have apologized directly, but why did he remain silent?
Shi Li had a vague guess in her heart. It wasn't that she was self-indulgent. Although his behavior to herself during this period was like treating a friend she hadn't seen for many years, there was no point in that aspect, but who would use the birthday of a friend she hadn't seen for many years as a password?
She sighed, not thinking about this for the time being, and began to search for the university she just found.
After Chen Jingyan went out of the door, he unconsciously stroked the corner of his lips, and found a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes after the corner of his lips curled up. He pressed his heart again, and it was indeed a bit faster than before.
The episode of this day just passed, and neither of them mentioned the kiss again. After a few days of visiting the school's post bar, Shili finally found some news about Chen Jingyan, but they all praised him for being friendly and there was no useful information.
...It seems that if you want to fully understand his past, you must go to school and ask the teacher who has taught him.
After roughly planning, Shili planned to execute it, but found that it was very difficult because she... had no money.
What does it mean if you don’t have money? From Chen Jingyan’s family to Donglai University, the subway costs five yuan, the bus costs three yuan, and the taxi costs more than forty, and these are all one-way.
And she didn't have a dime.
She tried to find a few steel Gs despicable at Shen Jingyan's house to take the cheapest bus. However, Chen Jingyan didn't know if it was because of the severe obsessive-compulsive disorder or some other reason, but there was not even steel Gs at home. This was embarrassing. She couldn't just ask Chen Jingyan, right? That was too shameless.
That night, Shi Li looked at Chen Jingyan awkwardly.
"What do you want money to do?" Chen Jingyan asked seriously.
Shi Li coughed: "Actually it's nothing, I just want to buy something."
"What to buy?" Chen Jingyan asked.
Shi Li laughed dryly, implying that he was a girl’s personal product: “It’s not very convenient, you are a big man, I can’t tell you.”
Chen Jingyan stared at her for a while, and suddenly realized: "You want to buy sanitary products?" After saying that, he paused and frowned, "I have bought it for you before, don't you know? Moreover, your menstrual period is still about ten days before, so there is no need now."
Shi Li: "..." Yes, I've been living a leisurely life recently. I forgot that I was his experimental subject, and he doesn't know what I do.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Chen Jingyan's eyes gradually became solemn: "Is it because of menstruation disorder? If so, you must tell me that your body is very important and there should be no problems. It is best to collect some blood samples..."
"No, my aunt is very normal." Shi Li quickly interrupted.
Chen Jingyan nodded: "It's normal, then what do you want money to do?"
Shi Li: "…"
"If there is something missing at home, just ask me to buy it. You just need to be at home now and don't worry about anything else, do you know?" Chen Jingyan looked at her gently, "If you want to go somewhere, call me and I'll send you there. In short, tell me if you have anything, don't carry it yourself."
Shi Li twitched: "...I understand."
Because Chen Jingyan had a tendency to break the casserole to ask the end, the money was shattered, and Shi Li could only think of other ways.
After Chen Jingyan went to work that day, she was bored at home alone, so she went downstairs for a walk. After walking for a few laps, she noticed the plastic bottles and express cartons in the trash can. She suddenly had an idea and felt that she had found a new way to get rich.
She went home and found a black plastic bag. After going downstairs, she walked and picked up bottles and cardboard boxes. She also had to pay attention to the surroundings from time to time. If someone who knew Chen Jingyan saw it, it would be hard to explain.
The high-end community is worthy of being a high-end community. Each trash can has bottles and cardboard boxes, but no one competes with Shi Li. Soon she picked up a bunch of them. Just as she was about to go home, she suddenly heard a sharp voice from a woman around the corner.
The sound was so familiar that Shi Li couldn't help but lean over and saw that the old lady who had hit the ball last time she and Shen Jingyan were pushing and shoving her daughter-in-law. The son next to her was like a dead man, and he was talking nonsense, but he didn't dare to come forward to stop him.
"If you hadn't been making trouble with my son all day long, my son wouldn't have failed the exam. Get out of here now and get back to your country!" The daughter-in-law said and cursed.
The old lady was very good when she was flirting with her daughter-in-law, but she was very cowardly when facing her daughter-in-law. After being pushed by her daughter-in-law a few times, she pushed her to the ground. Shi Li frowned and felt instinctively uncomfortable.
Although the evil people are right to be beaten by the evil people, it is really uncomfortable to see that one side is bullied and has no power to fight back, and the one being bullied is still a vulnerable person. Shi Li tied the plastic bag and put it aside, and walked forward directly.
When the family of three saw that it was her, they were stunned for a moment. The daughter-in-law took into account her face and turned around and left with a dark face. The son looked at this and that, and finally sighed and chased after her, leaving the old lady sitting alone on the ground and screaming.
Shi Li frowned and walked over: "Are you okay?"
"Helping me up quickly." The old lady stretched out her hand.
Shi Li didn't help him, but asked, "You won't cheat me, are you?"
"...The community is full of surveillance monitors, why should I cheat you?" The old lady was still crying, but she choked when she heard her words.
Shi Li was silent for a moment: "Where are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"The waist hurts so hard that I can't move." The old lady said, starting to feel sad again, and she was about to cry, but she didn't put down her hand, and she could see that she had a strong desire to survive.
Shi Li looked at her seriously: "I'll call an ambulance for you."
"...You won't help me?" the old lady glared.
Shi Li blinked: "Don't say whether I'm afraid of being cheated by you. Just as your current body is, you don't know where the injury is. It's better not to move around to avoid being injured again. It's better to wait for the doctor to come."
The old lady angrily put down her hand: "Who is it? You can't help me. Can the old woman eat you? You kill thousands of swords..."
"Another word, I'll leave, let you die here, see if your son and daughter-in-law care about you." Shi Li interrupted her quietly.
The old lady suddenly didn't dare to say anything.
Shi Li called an ambulance and hung up the phone after reporting the address, staring at the old lady thoughtfully.
The old lady looked alert: "What are you looking at?!"
"Do you know where there are scraps here?" Shi Li asked.
old lady:"……"
"I think you should know," Shi Li looked at her and said seriously, "The old lady in this community looks simpler."
The old lady looked at her angrily: "...If you want to laugh at me for being poor, just say it without striking around the bush."
"Do you know?" Shi Li asked.
Old lady: "…know."
"Come on, give me a cell phone number." Shi Li smiled.
The old lady looked at her reluctantly and recited the mobile phone number of the scrap collection. It was obvious that she had sold a lot of scraps before. After Shili wrote down the number, she asked, "Do you want to sell scraps?"
"Of course, otherwise what do you want to do with a number?" Shi Litou said without raising his head.
The old man sneered: "You can live a life," he paused after saying that, "I don't know how much better than the tigress of my family."
"You're still scolding your daughter-in-law?" Shi Li raised her eyebrows. She wanted to accompany her here to wait for the ambulance. She simply slowly explained to her. "Although she is not right, but to be honest, if I were your daughter-in-law and knew that you took my child to fight for the carnival, I would definitely lose my temper."
After saying that, she tickled: "You said you're just trying to mess around, you're still addicted. I want to touch us twice a day, but I have never seen you so greedy and teach your children to lie..."
"We didn't lie! It was that man who lied to my grandson to climb trees!" The old lady suddenly became excited, "There are beautiful stones under the trees, which are terrible. If my grandson hadn't been lucky enough, he would have been stabbed to death by those stones!"
Shi Li looked at her suddenly blushing face and didn't react for a while.
The old lady gasped and looked at her with resentment: "My grandson never goes there, so why did she suddenly climb a tree by herself? You said that the man didn't lie to him, do you believe it yourself?"
Shi Li looked at her for a moment, then heard the sound of an ambulance and turned around and walked out: "I don't know what you are talking about."
"I just told you that you are a good person. Keep away from that bad guy, otherwise I won't know how to die in the future!" the old lady said sternly.
Shi Li's fingertips trembled and calmly went to bring the ambulance over. After the old lady was sent to the ambulance, she returned home with a plastic bag.
In the next two days, she kept picking up rags and hid them all in her bathroom. After saving up almost the same thing, Chen Jingyan went to work one morning. She called the scrap collector and sold all the items for 23 yuan.
Seeing that the 23 yuan was not too much, Shi Li felt a little sad, and then quickly changed her clothes and headed to Chen Jingyan's alma mater.
She has done a lot of work these days and not only knows who Professor Chen Jingyan is, but also found out that he was a roommate in a dormitory and some stayed at school as a counselor. So after arriving at school, she quickly found the person she wanted to find.
My roommate was not in the office and didn't know where he went, but the professor went to class. Shi Li originally wanted to find the roommate first, but thought about it, he went to the professor's class first.
When she arrived, class was just over, and the class was full, and the professor she was looking for was already on the podium. Shi Li hugged and went in through the back door, found a seat in the back row, and planned to chat with the professor after class.
The bell rang and the professor started class. Shi Li sat quietly in the back row. He thought that there would be no intersection until the get out of class ended, but during class, the professor looked at her inadvertently. The originally fluent sound was stuck for a moment, and it stopped for a while before continuing.
He was stuck too obviously, and Shi Li noticed it in an instant, frowned and observed him carefully, and then found that he frequently looked at him during class.
What does it mean? Does he know himself? Shili gradually came up with an idea.
After finally rushing to the end of get out of class, the professor came first without waiting for her to find her: "Are you here to find me?"
Shi Li looked at his gentle smile, and felt a sense of familiarity. After a while of silence, he nodded: "Yes, hello, professor."
"Find a place to chat." The professor smiled kindly.
Shi Li naturally agreed, so the two of them went to a cafe near the school.
Shi Li looked at the professor in front of him, and a strange feeling became stronger and stronger. Why did she feel... this professor is so similar to Shen Jingyan?
It’s not that they look like alike, but that they behave like behaviors and some small facial expressions, which are exactly the same. But if you have to look carefully, you feel that you are thinking too much.
"I saw a photo of you two on Jingyan's phone." The professor said gently.
To be continued...
