C29 Chapter 29

Under four pairs of eyes, Hua Ming, as a good child, could not think of any excuse to make up for it.

"I..." Left with no choice, Hua Ming looked at Hsu Yan for help.

"I'm feeling a little dizzy from the pain. I don't even have the strength to speak. Let Hsu Yan explain it to you."

In order to prove that he was indeed a little weak, Hua Ming even snorted.

When Hsu Yan saw that everyone's gaze was on him, he shrugged his shoulders calmly and said casually, "It's my fault. Aren't we deskmates? I just wanted to take him out for some fun. I didn't expect to meet a few people I didn't get along well with before, so... So they started fighting. In order to help me, Hua Ming got involved."

"Uncle, Auntie." Hsu Yan looked at Hua Ming's parents sincerely and bowed deeply. "I'm sorry. Because of my mistake, Hua Ming was injured."

Hua Ming's eyelashes moved. He stole a glance at Hsu Yan and pursed his lips. His free fingers were buttoning the bed sheet from time to time.

Hsiao Yun and Hua Zhiwei looked at each other. After that, Hsiao Yun smiled faintly and looked at her son lovingly. She slowly said, "Auntie knows that you didn't mean it, so I don't blame you for this, but..."

Hsiao Yun's face turned cold, "Please don't get too close to our Hua Ming in the future. His father and I only have this hope. He is our life, and we don't want anything like this to happen to him again. So, can you promise Auntie? Our family is not as well-to-do as yours. Only by studying hard and living a good life can we have a way out. Although I want Mingming to make more friends, choosing friends depends on fate."

...

That day, they parted on bad terms.

Hsu Yan was a little shocked by Hsiao Yun's words. He stayed at home for a whole week without going out. Every day, he would lie in bed and play games over and over again.

The room was filled with a choking smell of smoke and was a little smoky.

Jian Yafang pushed open the door with a bowl of milk in her hand. When she smelled the smell, she immediately frowned in discomfort.

She looked at her son, who was sitting on the bed and concentrating on playing games, and sighed. Placing the milk on the table, Jian Yafang pulled open the tightly shut curtains. Immediately, the lights rushed in. Hsu Yan squinted his eyes in discomfort, and the sound of "gameover" came from the game console. He threw away the game controller and laid on the bed behind him, closing his eyes.

"Hsu Yan, get up and talk to Mom."

...

... "What's there to talk about?" After a while, Hsu Yan's muffled voice sounded.

"Why don't you go to class?"

"Didn't I often skip classes like this in the past? What's so strange about it? I'm a bad student to begin with."

"Ai! You're still thinking about what Hua Ming's mother said?"

"No."

"Stop lying. You can't lie to your mother."

...

Hsu Yan opened his eyes and sat up abruptly. He looked at his mother and immediately revealed an unnoticeable weakness. He asked, "Mom, am I really that bad?"

Jian Yafang stared at him and suddenly curled her lips. "Do you want to hear the truth?"

... "Yes."

"Sometimes I wonder how a gentle and virtuous person like your mother could have given birth to a devil like you. When I complained to your father, he was happy. He said that the boy was like him."

"But..." Hsu Yan seemed to be considering the word, "They seem to look down on me."

Hsu Yan remembered every word of Hua Ming's mother's words clearly. At first, he thought that it was just a small matter, but when Hua Ming's mother said those words, Hsu Yan was shocked that they would have such a reaction. His words were filled with rejection of Hsu Yan, the "problem student." For the first time, he began to doubt his previous life.

"No, they don't have any intention of looking down on you. It's just that, Hsu Yan, you have to understand that Hua Ming's family is different from ours. Our family, even if you don't study hard, do well in high school, and do well in college, you will definitely inherit your father's company in the future. In other words, your future is bright, and you don't have to worry about it at all. But Hua Ming is different. I think you know a little about their family's situation. Without a stable job, it's not easy to live in S City. They just hope that Hua Ming can walk on his own path and change the current situation. The burden on Hua Ming's shoulders is too heavy, and he can't afford to make any mistakes. What you did has already made them sound the alarm. They won't let anyone in even though they know it's dangerous."

Hsu Yan frowned and fell into deep thought.

Jian Yafang continued, "Your Teacher Wang secretly told me the other day that you guys ran out before you even finished class. What you said at the hospital was fake, right? I won't pursue what you guys did that day, but do you know how serious of a problem you brought a good student to skip class, fight, and break the rules? You, ok, with your dad and me blocking the way, the school won't dare to expel you, but what about Hua Ming? He went to that school because of his grades. What do you think will happen to him if the school finds out? "

At the end of her sentence, Jian Yafang was about to explode with anger. She took a deep breath and looked at Hsu Yan, who was silent. Finally, she could not bear to blame him too much. "Think about it yourself. Don't forget to drink the milk."

After saying that, she walked out of the room.

Downstairs, Mr. Xu was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper. Jian Yafang went downstairs and sat opposite him.

Hsu Shaofeng looked up and asked, "How is it?"

"Sigh! Let him think about it."
