Classmate Li Zhuangsheng doesn’t want to be reborn

Chapter 412: Cold
Li Zhuangsheng silently hugged Li Xiuyu, and dared not let go easily after he got her back. A huge stone fell from his heart, and he felt relieved, no longer asking for anything else.

In fact, he still didn't quite understand why Li Xiuyu came all the way to his hometown. Maybe he wanted to find a familiar place to hide.

At this moment, he didn't quite understand what Li Xiuyu meant by the liar. He didn't know what he had lied to her about. Maybe it was the promise he made to her not to find a partner? But that had been a long time ago, so it was not necessary to bring it up again now.

Did he think that I did something with Zhu Zhixue last night? Then I have to explain it clearly later. I really didn't do anything... If burying my chest doesn't count.

Li Xiuyu was really scared. Li Zhuangsheng sighed and said softly, "Let's go out first. It's pitch black here."

Li Xiuyu cried and nodded. Li Zhuangsheng carried Li Xiuyu on his back and bent over: "Let's go. Watch your head."

As he spoke, Li Zhuangsheng stood up and bent even lower. Li Xiuyu pressed his body tightly against Li Zhuangsheng's back, his head buried in his shoulder.

Before leaving, Li Zhuangsheng glanced at the clothes scattered on the ground. Li Xiuyu had just gone into his closet like when he was a child, and then covered himself with clothes.

Forget it, I’ll clean them up next time. They’re just old clothes anyway.

The two of them walked down the stairs carefully and walked out of the old house. It was drizzling at this time, and the street lights seemed to be looming in this cold rainy night.

The two stood under the eaves, Li Zhuangsheng gently put Li Xiuyu down and hugged her gently. After finding Li Xiuyu, Li Zhuangsheng's rationality completely returned.

He took out his cell phone and called Director Yan first: "Uncle Yan, I'm sorry to trouble you... Yes, I found her. She had a quarrel with me and ran away to her hometown to hide... I'm really sorry to trouble you. I will talk to her in a good way. Thank you!"

Li Zhuangsheng nodded and apologized sincerely. Fortunately, Director Yan was not angry, at least not in front of Li Zhuangsheng.

Li Zhuangsheng asked him not to tell Li Minghua and Chen Lanying about this for the time being, and although he agreed, he might jokingly tell Li Minghua about it when he met her in the future. However, that would be a long time in the future.

The cool breeze blew into Li Zhuangsheng's clothes again. He let out a breath, then sent a text message to Zhu Zhixue, informing her that Li Xiuyu was safe.

He wanted to call Zhu Zhixue, but in order to avoid provoking Li Xiuyu, he chose to send a text message. Then he called Yi Yunshui, but the call was hung up at first, and then picked up again two minutes later.

"Hey, have you found the person?" Yi Yunshui said in a nervous voice.

"Found her, she's fine." Li Zhuangsheng said, "Be careful."

Yi Yunshui breathed a sigh of relief, complained a few words, and quickly hung up the phone. It was still evening study time.

After thinking about it, Li Zhuangsheng sent another text message to Hu Mengdie, telling her that Li Xiuyu had been found and she didn't need to worry anymore.

Finally, Li Zhuangsheng called Li Xiuyu’s homeroom teacher, Mr. Cao, and apologized again. Then he told Mr. Cao that Li Xiuyu was not feeling well and went to the hospital on his own. The reason he did not call to ask for leave was that he did not have a mobile phone.

At this time, not many students had cell phones, so Li Zhuangsheng tried his best to fool them, and finally asked Teacher Cao not to tell the parents. Although Teacher Cao felt that there were many doubts in Li Zhuangsheng's words, she did not say anything more. She just said that she must come to school tomorrow if she had nothing to do.

Li Xiuyu's father is a "leader". He was negligent for not noticing that a student was missing from the class all morning. Fortunately, nothing happened. Teacher Cao didn't want to make it known to everyone. It would be best if the incident could be resolved in a small way.

Li Zhuangsheng made repeated assurances and hung up the phone with Teacher Cao.

"Run around! If mom finds out, she'll skin you alive!" After making all the calls, Li Zhuangsheng finally solved this trouble. He pinched Li Xiuyu's face gently, but couldn't bear to reveal the blame in his voice.

If Chen Lanying knew that Li Xiuyu had run away from home without permission, she would be beaten up. Even a daughter slave like Li Minghua would definitely scold her. So Li Zhuangsheng didn't want Li Minghua and Chen Lanying to know now. As long as he delayed it for a while, even if they found out about it in the future, they could cover it up.

Li Xiu Yu did not say a word after being scolded by Li Zhuangsheng. She silently let go of Li Zhuangsheng, turned away, and silently looked up at the rainy night.

"Oh, you're still angry. I've been looking for you all day, but I'm not angry yet!" Li Zhuangsheng smiled helplessly when he saw this.

Li Xiuyu didn't say anything, still pursed her lips and ignored him.

"Let's go home, or go to your aunt's house first. You haven't come back to see her for a long time, right?" Li Zhuangsheng said again.

Li Xiuyu still ignored him.

"Forget it, let's go home." Li Zhuangsheng shook his head, turned around and locked the door.

There were no taxi apps at that time, so Li Zhuangsheng stood on the roadside, waiting for a taxi back to the county town.

After waiting for about half an hour, Li Zhuangsheng finally got a bus. The driver had just sent someone to the countryside, and he didn't expect to encounter such a business again when he returned to the county town. He was very enthusiastic about Li Zhuangsheng and his sister.

But Li Xiuyu didn't say a word on the way, and Li Zhuangsheng was also in a bad mood, which made the driver quite embarrassed.

"You are all from Xingpeng... Did the young couple have a fight?" The driver glanced at the rearview mirror.

"She is my sister. She went back to the countryside to visit relatives." Li Zhuangsheng said without hesitation.

The driver raised his eyebrows. This lie was too crude. However, since the other party said so, it was obvious that he didn't want to tell the truth, so he didn't ask any further questions.

They were silent all the way and returned to the county town in less than half an hour. When getting off the bus, Li Zhuangsheng suddenly realized something embarrassing: he didn't seem to have any money with him.

Fortunately, Li Xiuyu had money on him. After fumbling for a moment, he paid the fare silently.

"Let's go upstairs." Downstairs in the apartment, Li Zhuangsheng said to Li Xiuyu with a smile, "Hey, do you want me to carry you upstairs?"

Li Xiuyu said nothing and went upstairs silently.

"Pretty cool..." Li Zhuangsheng muttered in boredom as he followed behind Li Xiuyu.

After returning home, the first thing Li Xiuyu did was to turn on the lights and then go back to his room quietly.

"Hey, Xiu Yu!" Li Zhuangsheng held onto his suddenly "cold" sister, his lips moved a few times, and he sighed, "I'm sorry about last night... I wanted to come back, but then I felt it was too late and too sleepy, so I didn't come back. You called me, but I really didn't see you! But I just slept last night and didn't do anything else. I promised you that she and I had a healthy relationship and I wouldn't do that kind of thing!"

After hearing Li Zhuangsheng's explanation, Li Xiuyu shook off Li Zhuangsheng without looking back and went straight back to the house.
