"Teacher Yao, Madam..." Xiao Yao was about to continue to refuse when his cell phone rang.

He took it out hurriedly and saw that it was a text message notification from China Telecom. He showed a disappointed expression again.

Didn’t you say you would call me after school?

"So you also secretly brought a cell phone into school." Teacher Yao said meaningfully.

"No, no," Xiao Yao said quickly, "I always put it in my schoolbag at school, mainly because my grandma was afraid that she couldn't contact me."

Grandma, I'm sorry, you have to take the blame again.

"Why are you panicking? I won't confiscate your property," Teacher Yao said with a smile, "Be careful at school and don't let the principal or the head teacher see you."

Xiao Yao agreed and typed a text message: "Is school over?"

After thinking about it, I deleted it and didn’t post it.

I want to see when you will look for me if I don't look for you.

"Will she message you again?" Teacher Yao spoke again.

"She? Who?" Xiao Yao was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "No, no, I'm not waiting for her news."

"Oh?" Teacher Yao raised her eyebrows and did not continue to ask: "Just eat well."

After the meal, Xiao Yao rushed to help clean the table and the dishes. Although Qian Shui kept saying "Let me do it, go study quickly", Xiao Yao still walked towards the kitchen with a pile of dishes.

at this time.

Without any warning, he was slapped on the face.

The slap was not very heavy, but it was definitely not light, and it stunned him immediately.

Before the reflex arc was completed, Xiao Yao felt a sharp pain in his arm.

That kind of severe pain... is just like when my father hit me with a slipper in my childhood.

"Ah!" Accompanied by the sound of dishes breaking to the ground, Xiao Yao hugged his arms and jumped on one foot.

"How can you be so careless, kid?" Qianshui ran over and said, "You didn't hurt your hand, did you?"

"What's wrong? What's happening?" Teacher Yao ran out of the study with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Oh no, Teacher Yao," Xiao Yao was still grinning, "Something happened to Yu Luying!"

Chapter 26 Domestic Violence

Half an hour later.

"Slow down!" As soon as Teacher Yao's small motorcycle arrived at the entrance of Yu Luying's alley, Xiao Yao jumped off the back seat.

He did not stand firmly and stumbled, and had to hold on to the wall to avoid falling.

He casually replied to the teacher, "It's okay," and started running.

He trotted to the wooden door downstairs of Yu Luying's building and knocked on it.

Knock, knock, knock! No one answered the door, but the phone started vibrating.

Yu Luying's phone, which had been unanswered, suddenly called.

"Go quickly," the girl lowered her voice and said anxiously, "My mother will be even angrier when she sees you!"

"Are you okay?" Xiao Yao said, "Teacher Yao is here."

"I'm fine, you go." Yu Luying said and hung up the phone.

Xiao Yao was stunned, and was wondering whether he should continue knocking on the door when Teacher Yao behind him also rushed over.

At this moment, the wooden door in front of me creaked and opened.

"Hey, Teacher Yao!" The short-haired woman had a smile on her face. She pushed Xiao Yao aside and went to Teacher Yao: "Teacher Yao, why are you here? You didn't even tell me you were here."

"Ah, this..." Teacher Yao looked a little embarrassed: "Student Xiao Yao said that Yu Luying might have encountered a problem, and he insisted on coming to see her. I was worried about him running around in the middle of the night, so I sent him here."

"Hey, don't stand here and talk, please go upstairs!" Yu's mother seemed to have just seen Xiao Yao: "Xiao Yao, right? You come up too."

"No, no..." Xiao Yao waved his hands: "As long as Yu Luying is okay, I'll go back first."

It was obvious that Yu's mother had no intention of keeping him. After Teacher Yao and Xiao Yao reminded him to go home early and do his homework, they followed him upstairs. Xiao Yao was left alone, staring at the closed wooden door and the lighted glass window upstairs, stunned for a while.

So, it turns out that there was an incident of domestic violence?

Xiao Yao recalled the cruel memory of being beaten by a mixed doubles team as a child because he was naughty and didn't do his homework.

But what on earth could a good student like Yu Luying be...? Besides, wasn't the punishment a bit too harsh?

On the way home, Xiao Yao called Shen Jie.

"Didn't you say you would call me after school?" Xiao Yao had originally intended to complain in a half-joking tone, but he felt his tone had come off the mark the moment he said it.

On the other end of the phone, Shen Jie was silent.

"I'm sorry," Xiao Yao said, softening his tone: "I'm not——"

"I called, right after the karate club ended," Shen Jie said dimly, "I called several but the lines were all busy."

Xiao Yao was stunned, then he remembered that he had been calling Yu Luying on the way here.

"I'm sorry, I didn't keep hitting you and failed to meet your expectations of me. I'll pay more attention next time."

Shen Jie's words sounded like sarcasm, but her tone was serious to the point of sincerity.

"No..." Xiao Yao held his forehead: "Are you angry?"

"I dare not." Shen Jie said.

That means he is angry, Xiao Yao thought.

"Okay, don't be angry..."

"Where is Shen Tianyun?" Shen Jie casually changed the subject.

"I don't know, I haven't reached home yet." Xiao Yao said.

"You went to the Internet cafe again? To play Bloodline II?" Shen Jie said with a hint of joking: "I downloaded it today, too."

"I didn't go to the Internet cafe today. I went there to study hard," although I didn't study at all: "Have you registered?"

"Yeah," Shen Jie responded through her nose, "I chose the Elf Mage."

"It's not easy for the mage and the knight to work together..." Xiao Yao muttered.

"So what do you want me to practice?"

No, how come this is all your fault?

"I..." Xiao Yao said.

There was another woman's voice on the other end of the line, and then Shen Jie turned around and shouted, "Hey! I'm talking to my classmates on the phone, I'll be there soon!"

"Uh……"

"Xiao Yao," Shen Jie answered the phone again: "I can't talk for too long, are you free this weekend?"

"As long as you ask me out, I'm free whether I'm busy or not."

"One of our classmates is having a birthday," Shen Jie paused, "We are going to Qiangui, do you want to come with us?"

"Okay." Xiao Yao agreed immediately: "What is Qiangui, a restaurant?"

"KTV..." Shen Jie's voice sounded a little speechless.

"It's my classmate's birthday, so we went to KTV to sing all night. So Shen Tianyun learned this from you?" Xiao Yao said with a smile: "Like mother, like son..."

"...We are in the afternoon." Shen Jie said.

"Oh, I was just kidding." Xiao Yao realized that the other party didn't find it funny.

"I'll send you the specific time and address later," Shen Jie said, "I'm hanging up now."

"Hey, wait a minute..."

"Ah."

Xiao Yao calmed down and asked, "Is your mother very strict with you?"

"Also?" The girl said, "It's OK, just so-so."

"Will your mother beat you?"

"Never."

Xiao Yao returned home, watched TV with his grandmother, chatted for a while, then went back to his room and locked the door.

He passed through the mirror. It was already half past ten in the evening, and the lights in Shen Tianyun's room were still off.

Xiao Yao took his homework book out of his schoolbag and began to do his homework carefully.

Xiao Yao felt at ease.

His mind and thoughts were obviously clearer than last week.

Considering that he somehow learned Yu Luying's cooking skills, Xiao Yao was almost certain that the symbiosis with Yu Luying also had a positive impact on his learning ability.

Was it me who shared Yu Luying's knowledge or her brain?

When I finished my homework, it was almost twelve o'clock and Shen Tianyun finally came back.

"Where have you been?" Xiao Yao put the pen aside and asked calmly.

"Square dance." Shen Tianyun held the wall with one hand and took off the white and green sneakers on her feet with the other hand.

"Won't we be accused of disturbing the public if we dance to this point in the square?" Xiao Yao thought for a moment and said, "Forget it. Let me ask you something."

"Ask." Shen Tianyun threw the green boat socks into the dirty clothes basket in the corner of the room, and then pulled a towel to wipe the sweat off her face.

"Will your mother beat you?"

"Never hit me before," Shen Tianyun said as if it was a matter of course: "Why don't you ask, will you hit me?"

"I really want to hit you right now. What if, I mean what if," Xiao Yao chose his words carefully, "What if someone in your class lost something in the classroom, and everyone thought you stole it, what would you do?"

"What should I do?" Shen Tianyun sat down on the edge of the bed, put one leg flat on the other knee, and put a delicate hand into the gap between her toes: "Go find whoever said it was you, and argue with him face to face. If words don't work, then use force."

"Stop picking your feet! How can such a pretty girl be so unrefined...?" Xiao Yao scolded.

"Annoying." Shen Tianyun muttered, put his foot down, put his middle finger in front of his nose and smelled it.

"No," Xiao Yao continued, "What if no one specifically framed you? No one came to trouble you, but everyone thought so privately."

"Then recite a poem. Thousands of hammers and chisels have been used to carve out a deep mountain. The raging fire burns like nothing. I am not afraid of being torn to pieces." Shen Tianyun didn't care at first, but when she saw Xiao Yao's unhappy face, she stuck out her tongue again: "Catch the thief and clear his name?"

Xiao Yao nodded: "I thought so too, but how can I check it? The teacher doesn't support it."

"The teacher doesn't support it... Then call the police and check the surveillance." Shen Tianyun said: "The school has surveillance. As long as the school doesn't pretend to be blind, let alone stealing, you can lose points for picking your feet in class."

"Where are the cameras in the classroom?" Xiao Yao rolled his eyes. "Is this an invasion of privacy?"

"Invasion of privacy? That's what you said when you took me to school. You see, the one in my room was later removed. But there must be a school corridor after all?"

--split line--

When he arrived at school the next day, Xiao Yao noticed that Zhou Qi's seat was empty.

"Where is Zhou Qi?" the student council member asked him when collecting homework.

"How should I know? She is not me...anyone."

"Aren't you with Teacher Yao?"

"..."

Yu Luying's eyes were a little swollen, which made Xiao Yao's eyes feel swollen as well.

After class, Xiao Yao was called into the office by Teacher Yao.

"I'll explain something to you as well," Teacher Yao shook her head and blew on the cup of hot tea as usual. "Yu Luying is fine. I've talked to her mother. It's her family's business, so don't ask too much."

"Oh……"

"It seems that you have a good relationship. She will send you a message immediately when something happens." Teacher Yao said meaningfully.

"Uh, no..."
