Rebirth: Growing Up Together

Peng Hongfei couldn't help but pat him on the back, "Lao Kong, you are so stupid. Do you think Lao Xu really doesn't know that his wallet is not lost?"

"what?"

Kong Runlong looked at Xu Cheng in confusion. Xu Cheng just smiled at him and said nothing.

Although he didn't get the evidence he wanted, he could already accept the result.

At least he had confirmed who the person who had "framed" their entire dormitory was.

This person must have the right time, the right motivation, sufficient opportunities, and sufficient abilities.

At 8:37, the suspicions of Liao Dan and Wu Shiming can be eliminated.

There were two people left inside.

Being able to avoid other cameras and move the cameras easily, this kind of anti-reconnaissance ability and awareness could not be achieved even if Liu Yuwen had ten more brains.

Then only Hou Ruiquan is left.

It can almost be concluded that he was just hiding behind the scenes and deliberately falsely accused the four people of 405.

Unfortunately, even so, Xu Cheng had no evidence to prove Hou Ruiquan's despicable act.

And even if it can be proven, for Hou Ruiquan, this is just a small dispute over folding quilts, not a big deal, and even the punishment is not painful.

I think it was because of this that he was willing to do this.

The weather was still hot in the afternoon.

During the training accompanied by the chirping of cicadas and the scorching heat, a piece of news gradually spread.

It's unclear from whose mouth it was said, but most of the people who knew the news heard it from Tian Xiaoyu.

Not only was Liao Dan late in the morning, delaying training, but he also hadn't folded his quilt. This matter was reported to Hou Ruiquan by his roommate Lin Wanchu in the same dormitory.

Tian Xiaoyu stood next to a few boys with whom he could usually chat.

He pinched his waist with both hands, as if digging out his heart, and said in a cooing voice.

"It's really annoying to live in the same dormitory with a girl who loves to complain like this. She tells the teacher everything..."

"It's just, really childish."

"Be careful in the future and don't let her catch you."

“No… maybe not.”

A few people disagreed.

"It's disgusting that Liao Dan enjoys privileges every day. I think Lin Wanzhou's congee is pretty good."

"That's right. There was no punishment for being late in the morning. The instructor didn't tell me if I didn't fold the quilt. We don't know why."

Wu Shiming was right next to him, and this time he unexpectedly stood up and said loudly.

"What are you talking about, Tian Xiaoyu?"

"Oh, some people should be pointed out if they fold their quilts, and some people should not be criticized even if they don't fold their quilts?"

"What's the point!"

"I think they are doing the right thing. Why should someone in military training be given special privileges?"

Wu Shiming's voice was very loud, and many people around him heard his strange words, including Liao Dan. She, who was smiling and talking to other girls just now, looked at him with a trace of resentment in her eyes.

During the break, Liao Dan went to see Hou Ruiquan. I don't know what the two said, and there seemed to be some quarrels.

When he came back, Hou Ruiquan looked unhappy. During the training, he found out that Wu Shiming's goose step was not up to standard, and ordered him to run a 1,500-meter run.

Wu Shiming just smiled.

"Someone wants us to run away, so let's run away and take it."

The way he shouted slogans was quite courageous, and he won the favor of many students in the class who had objections to Liao Dan, and several people applauded him despite the pressure.

But at the end of the run, I was lying on the grass with my hair disheveled and my legs trembling, looking a little embarrassed.

……

The team disbanded in the evening.

Lin Wanzhu stood by the bench next to the teaching building and waited for a while. There were dim street lights above his head, and a few moths were flying around.

After a while, Xu Cheng came over, holding two bottles of Coke that he had just bought from the vending machine. He unscrewed the cap of one bottle and handed it to her.

Lin Wanwan picked up the porridge and took a sip.

She even thought it was strange.

Why did she control herself to act like a lady when drinking coke in front of him? In the past, she always poured it into her mouth.

"I heard them say that it was you who reported Liao Dan to Hou Ruiquan?" Xu Cheng couldn't help but asked curiously.

The girl didn't seem to want to answer his question, so she screwed on the bottle cap, put her little hands behind her back, and kicked her legs forward.

"How did you think that Liao Dan didn't fold the quilt?"

"She came so late, I don't believe she folded the quilt. She didn't even get up when we left in the morning. After you were called away, I ran back to the dormitory and took a look, and sure enough, she didn't fold the quilt."

"You are quite witty, Lin Wanzhu. If it weren't for those photos, it seems we would have nothing to do today."

"Of course I'm witty, I'm one of the witty ones."

Seeing how cute she was, Xu Cheng touched her head, but she resisted and ran away.

"So you haven't told me clearly what happened this morning."

Xu Cheng told her a complete story about their encounter and his investigation.

"So it was actually Hou Ruiquan who harmed you?" Lin Wanchu squinted his eyes, looking very serious.

"Yes, but there is no evidence."

"not him."

Lin Wanchu shook his head, "Your reasoning is wrong. Liao Dan must have asked Hou Ruiquan to do this. The man behind the scenes is the real culprit. I will not spare Liao Dan."

In the dark night, her forehead was smooth, her eyes were bright, and her tone of voice was serious. Xu Cheng, who had known her since childhood, understood that if Lin Wanzhou said something in this tone, she would definitely do it. This was her personality.

He took Lin Wanzhou's little hand and held her in his arms.

“You don’t have to do so much…”

"No."

Lin Wanchu lay on his chest, gently rubbed his forehead, then raised his eyes and touched Xu Cheng's face.

"You can't be the one protecting me all the time."

"If someone wants to hurt you, I will never let that person go."

Xu Cheng looked at her long eyelashes and the firm gaze under the eyelashes that wanted to protect him. He felt that something in his heart seemed to be deeply touched, and he couldn't help but hug her tighter.

"Lin Wanzhou, you are so...stubborn."

"Then you are very stubborn."

The girl curled her lips in a pout, then rubbed against his chest wantonly, enjoying the close contact with him.

These are things she dares to do.

But there are some things she dare not say.

I'm just stubborn.

Otherwise, why would I like you so stubbornly?

……

It was getting late, so Xu Cheng sent Lin Wanzhu back to the dormitory.

When they got downstairs, the two of them said goodbye. Just as Lin Wanchu was about to say goodbye, he suddenly saw a figure standing downstairs. After checking for a few times, he took the initiative to walk over.

"Hello, are you Liao Dan's boyfriend?"

The boy glanced at her and immediately recalled that he was one of Liao Dan's roommates before, and said hello to her politely.

"Are you waiting for Liao Dan?"

"Yes, she said she has a second-level computer class tonight and will be late when she comes back. I'll wait for her here."

"Oh."

Lin Wanchu nodded, then turned around, stopped again, glanced at the boy, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally seemed to be unable to bear it.

"Um... the second-level computer class in our school seems to have not started yet. I haven't heard of anyone going there."

"what?"

The boy was stunned for a few seconds.

Lin Wanzhou continued, "Um... Liao Dan has been coming back to the dormitory very late these past few days. We don't know what she's doing outside, and we often see other boys bringing her back."

"..."

The boy stood there with a stunned look on his face.

Lin Wanchu felt that he had laid enough thunder, so he said nothing more and turned around and went upstairs without looking back.

On the other side, in the boys' dormitory.

Xu Cheng just returned to the dormitory and found that his dormitory was quite lively. Not only were the three roommates there, but also several classmates from other dormitories.

There was a small table in the center of the dormitory with some fresh food on it and beer on the floor.

This scene was set up by Wu Shiming.

He also recently realized that his series of behaviors seemed to have caused him to be isolated by several people in the dormitory.

To make a revolution, he still needs to mobilize the masses. He cannot go on like this.

Then I took the initiative to buy something and have a table like this in the dormitory.

Several people were chatting lively at this moment, but no one noticed Xu Cheng entering the dormitory.

He stood aside, folding his arms, quietly listening to the arguments.

"The girls in our class are actually quite high quality. I think Tian Xiaoyu is pretty good."

"Are you blind? What's good about Tian Xiaoyu? Qi Fangfang's temperament is the best."

When Wu Shiming heard this, he immediately said with contempt.

"What are you talking about? Are there any girls in our class who can compete with Lin Wanzhou?"

When it came to Lin Wanzhou, no one seemed to have any objections.

Wu Shiming saw that Xu Cheng was also there, "Chief, do you think what I said is right?"

Xu Cheng smiled and nodded.

"Yes, you are right."

Wu Shiming smiled and became more enthusiastic, "Speaking of Lin Wanzhou, let me tell you a secret."

"What secret?", everyone became curious.

"Hmph, you may not know that Lin Wanzhou definitely likes me."

"???"

You guys look at me and I look at you, and you all think that Lao Wu drank too much today?

"I have a basis for this. Do you know why Lin Wanzhu reported Liao Dan? That's because Liao Dan targeted me today, and she wanted to help me take revenge."

"Cough cough cough..."

Seeing Wu Shiming's narcissistic look, Xu Cheng couldn't stand it anymore.

Although his narcissistic look is a bit cute, Xu Cheng feels that it would be better to explain some things clearly earlier.

"Lao Wu, come with me to the balcony."

"Okay, Chief."

Wu Shiming also figured out that the dormitory chief was already obtained by Xu Cheng anyway, so he endured the humiliation and shouldered the burden. Being his second in command meant that his status in the dormitory was not low, so his little mouth became so sweet.

The two went to the balcony. Wu Shiming's legs were still trembling because of running.
