Chapter 120: It Turned Out To Be A Schoolmate

  Thank you to the classmates who rewarded me yesterday! I'm so excited, I love you in June. The creek is beautiful, the war has stopped, the island of four seasons, listen to what, four, no good medicine, look at the clouds, four, book friends mouth, four, book friends fierce. Out of embarrassment, four, Satan's peak, four, start a bookworm name, four, passing by, four, sea, four, red flower, four, fallen shackles, four, the star of the zodiac, four, compared to the mountain, fierce, this is worth mourning, fierce.

  This chapter is written in red ink. Today, at the third watch of the night.

  This is even better than holding hands for Hao Ren nowadays.

  "Alright, I'm going in. Don't come looking for me at school if there's nothing important! It's such a bother!" Seeing Hao Ren still standing there stupidly, Zhao Yanzi scolded with a reddened face before turning around and running into her school.

  Hao Ren looked at her wearing a light blue short-sleeved dress and holding a deep blue sports suit, running. He thought to himself, indeed, she's just a tough-talking person after all.

  He subconsciously touched his lips and turned around to walk to the opposite side of the road, taking a ride back to school.

  There is still one more big class in the afternoon, and after finishing this big class, all classes for the entire week will be over.

  Hao Ren remembered that Xie Wan Jun wanted to invite him to dinner, so he called Xie Yu Jia, "I'm done with class, where are you?"

  "I'm at the station by the north gate of the school. Come over." Xie Yu Jia's clear voice came from the other end of the phone.

  Hao Ren didn't dawdle and there was nothing he needed to take. He stuffed his wallet and phone into his pockets and headed towards the north gate of the school.

  He usually takes a bus at the main gate of the school. Taking a bus at the north gate, also known as the back door, is still the first time.

  The buses at the North Gate are all heading towards the city center, and there are many students returning home on weekends, which makes it necessary to line up a long queue to take the bus here.

  "Hao Ren! Hao Ren." Seeing Hao Ren walking over, Xie Yu Jia hastily jumped up and waved at him.

  Such a beautiful girl's summons would inevitably attract the attention of students who were bored waiting for the bus, and Hao Ren felt countless gazes shooting towards him, so he could only force himself to run past with a stiff face.

  Xie Yu Jia should also have arrived at the station not long ago. At the end of the queue, Hao Ren ran over and took the initiative to take away her backpack and helped her put it on.

  "It's okay! I'll get it myself." Xie Yujia pulled on her backpack, wanting to take it back.

  "It's quite heavy. The queue is still long, let me carry it for you." Hao Ren said. On this hot day, she was a girl carrying a heavy backpack in line waiting for the bus, it was very tiring.

  Xie Yu Jia couldn't help but look at him and say thank you. Having seen Hao Ren rock climbing, she knew that although Hao Ren looked ordinary, his strength was something that an average man could not surpass.

  Hao Ren looks gentle in nature but actually has a strong masculine aura. Xie Yu Jia gazes at Hao Ren from up close, thinking to herself.

  The team moved slowly, and every time a bus came, it took away a group of students.

  Hao Ren patted the backpack on his back, "Class Monitor, what's inside this thing? It's so heavy!"

  "I packed some books and brought them back to read," Xie Yu Jia replied.

  "Hmm." Hao Ren didn't ask anything else and thought that the class monitor was too serious about studying, not even relaxing on weekends when he went home.

  "Actually, Hao Ren you're quite clever, usually see you don't study much, every time the exam results are still passable." Xie Yu Jia suddenly said.

  "We guys are all like this, who studies normally? We all rush to study before the exam." Hao Ren said casually. He suddenly felt that it was not good to say this in front of the class monitor, and quickly changed the subject, "Class monitor, you study so hard, do you have a goal?"

  "There's no specific goal, I just don't want to fall behind others," Xie Yu Jia said.

  Hao Ren thought: who else can you fall behind? Every time it's the first in class scores.

  Another bus pulled into the station, and the line moved slowly forward. Hao Ren and Xie Yu Jia happened to board the same bus and sat next to each other.

  A pair of student lovers sitting in front of them, with their heads against each other, whispering to each other. As the car started, the girl simply fell into the boy's arms.

  Xie Yu Jia felt slightly embarrassed and turned her head to look out of the window.

  "What was your high school like?" Hao Ren broke the awkward silence and asked her.

  "Lingzhao Middle School is not far from our university." Xie Yujia finally turned her head again, looking at Hao Ren, "What school were you in before?"

  Lingzhao Middle School, high school department? Speaking of which, Xie Yujia is still Zhao Yanzi's senior. Hao Renxin was slightly surprised in his heart and replied to Xie Yujia, "I used to attend Municipal No. 1 High School."

  "The No. 1 Middle School in Shibei District is also good." Xie Yujia said.

  "Was the class leader admitted to Lingzhao High School through examination or did he directly advance from junior high school?" Hao Ren asked again.

  "I also attended Lingzhao Middle School in junior high school," replied Xie Yujia.

  "How many classes?" Hao Ren asked closely.

  "Ha! I was in Class 2 from junior high school to senior high school, and even in university, it's still the same. I don't know if it's fate or coincidence." Xie Yu Jia said with a self-deprecating smile.

  In junior high, it was also Ling... Ping, and also? Class, so it's really Zhao Yanzi's senior's senior. Crawling back to think about the scene of attending the parent-teacher conference at Lingzhao Middle School's junior high department a few days ago, I really want to know which position in that classroom Xie Yujia used to sit in, but I couldn't ask so much, and could only guess in my heart.

  "Speaking of which, I came to watch your game at the last sports meet. She's also a little beauty from Lingzhao Middle School, isn't she? I recognize their school uniform," said Xie Yu Jia.

  "Uh-huh, she's a little beauty I tutor." Hao Ren said.

  "There were a lot of rich kids in our school before, and it should be the same now. No wonder you're doing tutoring, they even send a car to pick you up." Xie Yu Jia said with emotion.

  Hao Ren looked at Xie Yu Jia, judging from her usual attire and that half-old bicycle, her family background should be ordinary. She was studying at Ling Zhao Middle School, probably relying on her excellent grades to get in.

  The bus was moving at a moderate pace, just right for taking in the scenery along the way.

  The couple of students sitting in front of Hao Ren and Xie Yu Jia couldn't bear the boredom of the journey. The girl was leaning on the boy's chest, teasing each other's chin with their fingers, giggling non-stop.

  Seeing this scene, Hao Ren could only break the awkwardness again and asked, "Class leader, do you think I look like a high school student?"

  "How did you figure this out?" Xie Yu Jia was a bit puzzled, and she leaned her body to the side, carefully sizing up Hao Ren. "You look fine. Anyway, high school students are mature now too. You said you're a high school student. Shouldn't be recognizable, right?"

  "Really?" Hao Ren felt slightly relieved and somewhat pleased: It turns out I still have the capital to pretend to be a high school student.

  "I haven't been back since I graduated from school, but sometimes I really want to go back and take a look." Xie Yu Jia suddenly said.

  Seeing the nostalgic colors flashing in Xie Yu Jia's eyes, Hao Ren cautiously guessed that perhaps their class monitor had been in a romantic relationship during middle school.

  "Was the class leader always the best student in school?" Hao Ren couldn't help but ask as he saw Xie Yu Jia lost in thought.

  "There are many who are far more excellent than me. A large number of people have been admitted to Tsinghua and Peking University." Xie Yu Jia immediately retorted.

  "Class monitor is so beautiful," Hao Ren inquired about Xie Yu Jia's expression, and then asked again, "In the past at middle school, must have been a campus belle?"

  "Hehe, this time, Xie Yu Jia lowered her head and smiled, then continued to glance out the window. I don't know if she thought this topic was too boring or if she felt that this kind of reputation didn't matter."

  The car swayed and finally arrived at another station. The university couple sitting in front of them finally got off. Hao Ren and Xie Yu Jia couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

  The bus continued moving forward. Just as Hao Ren was getting drowsy, Xie Yu Jia suddenly nudged him, "We've arrived at the stop, get off the bus!"

  Hao Ren hastily stood up. Then Xie Yu Jia's backpack squeezed towards the rear door of the bus.

  Xie Yu Jia closely followed Hao Ren, her palm lightly pushing against Hao Ren's back, in this crowded bus. Giving herself a supporting force.

  Getting off the bus, Xie Yu Jia felt embarrassed to let Hao Ren carry her school bag again, insisting on taking it back and carrying it herself.

  Hao Ren took the opportunity to look around at the environment and road signs, discovering that this was an old urban area in Donghai City that had not been renovated yet. The surrounding areas were all dull and grey old residential buildings. There were even low and rickety-looking shantytowns that seemed on the verge of collapse.

  Xie Yu Jia actually lives in a place like this?" Hao Ren said with slight surprise.

  "I'll go buy some vegetables first!" Xie Yu Jia thought there was nothing wrong with that, and led Hao Ren to a small vegetable market.

  The vegetable market was sandwiched between two rows of shantytowns, all temporarily set up and very disorderly. Xie Yujia had a backpack on her back. She went to several vegetable stalls one after another, picked out some vegetables, held them in her hand, and then specially bought a very sumptuous boxed lunch, which was packed up.

  Hao Ren looked at Xie Yu Jia, whose skin was as white as jade, and suddenly felt a pang of heartache as she moved back and forth in this dimly lit and muddy temporary vegetable market.

  It's clear that Xie Yu Jia is very domestic, but her way of being domestic is completely different from Zhao Hongyu's.

  Xie Yu Jia, carrying a box of rice and vegetables, led Hao Ren out of the somewhat dirty temporary market and walked towards a small bungalow in the shantytown.

  At this moment, Hao Ren's mood was not just heartache, but shock!

  Xie Yu Jia walked up to a wooden door covered in scratches. She knocked on the door. "Grandma!"

  The creaky door opened and a shaky old woman appeared before Hao Ren and Xie Yu Jia.

  "Grandma, this was bought online, eat it while it's hot. Xie Yu Jia put the boxed meal in her hands and pinched her dry hands again. "I still have some things to do, I'll come over tomorrow to keep you company."

  The old woman nodded tremulously and looked at Hao Ren beside Xie Yu Jia, giving a thumbs up with a delighted smile.

  Xie Yu Jia's pale face turned slightly red, "Grandma, it's not like that!"

  She helped the old woman into the house and then came out again. She beckoned to Hao Ren, "Let's go."

  She was a bit puzzled by Hao Ren's question.

  "There's a mute old lady, her son works outside and rarely comes back. Usually she lives alone. It's quite pitiful. So every time I go home, I'll buy some food for her on the way." Xie Yu Jia said as he led Hao Ren out of the shantytown.

  As I walked out of this densely lined slum area, the view suddenly became clear.

  Hao Ren looked at Xie Yu Jia beside him, basking in the sunlight. Suddenly he felt that she was really radiant and shining brightly.

  Today is the third watch of the night.
