Chapter 514: School Bully Alpha Gets Sanctioned Again 19
This matter ended just like that.
Director Hu attributed Jin Chen's ability to invite the principal to his being first in the grade.
There might be many reasons behind it; he knows it clearly, but he doesn't want to delve deeper, and he can't.
Having sat in the Director of Discipline position for so many years, he doesn't want to face the risk of being demoted due to lack of vision.
Zhou Fangshu left school in a daze, not understanding why, in a school where class privilege had no effect, he still couldn't beat Jiang Xun.
Could it really be that family background is that important?
Standing at the school gate, after a moment's thought, his original intention to go home changed; he took a car to the First Hospital.
He intended to go see Xie Yangze.
Maybe he should change his approach.
——
The three little brothers were taken away by their respective homeroom teachers to undergo various ideological baptisms.
Jiang Xun, after that commotion just now, perhaps overly tired, walked beside Jin Chen without saying a word.
Until he realized Jin Chen had no intention of taking him back to the classroom.
"Where are you going? Are you going to sell me?"
Jiang Xun was also quite impressed with himself, that he could even crack a joke at this moment.
Good, at least his psychological endurance has improved.
"With such handsome looks, he could probably fetch a good price."
Jin Chen responded seriously, making Jiang Xun finally unable to hold back a laugh.
While speaking, the two had already arrived at the Green Turf Sports Field.
Aside from the classes having PE together, there weren't many people on the field.
Jin Chen took Jiang Xun's hand and walked to the slope beside the field.
The greening here is well done; opposite the slope is the school's artificial lake, with willows planted.
The two sat down on the slope's grass, tacitly neither speaking first.
Jiang Xun extended one leg, straightened it, supported himself with both hands behind, narrowed his eyes at the shimmering lake surface, and recalled that incident.
He had never told anyone about it.
"Two years ago, when I went out to play basketball, I met Shen Can; La Tiao's basketball almost hit him, but he was good-tempered and didn't mind; after La Tiao treated him to meals a few times, they became acquainted."
"La Tiao liked him, and we all saw it; who would have thought that one day he'd suddenly come running to confess to me?"
Jin Chen's brow twitched slightly: "What does La Tiao think?"
"If it weren't for them, I wouldn't even know Shen Can well, so my refusal was rather blunt," Jiang Xun chuckled, "and La Tiao even got into a fight with me."
"I thought this would come to nothing, but over a month later, Shen Can asked us for help, saying he was being bullied by thugs, and I thought helping out wouldn't hurt."
Jiang Xun lowered his gaze, his tone inexplicable: "The location of that fight was dangerous; after the fight, a solid wooden plank suddenly fell from the rooftop."
"I didn't even have time to react before Shen Can rushed over and pushed me aside… he got hit in the head by the plank and became a vegetative state."
So that's how it is; the brief mention in the original plot of the heartless, cheating love affair actually turns out to be this truth.
Jin Chen touched his fingers, gently pinching them reassuringly, and asked, "What happened after that?"
"Afterward, my family spent a lot of money, but there was no way to save him; we could only keep him in a sanatorium, and we also gave his family satisfactory compensation."
"Actually, the lawyer said they were asking a bit lion-sized, but they didn't argue further and just paid the asking price."
After all, it's a life that may never regain consciousness.
"Over these two years, I and La Tiao and the others also occasionally visit the sanatorium."
Jin Chen understood: "So that day's basketball, you originally intended to buy it as a birthday gift for him."
"Hmm..."
Not knowing what he thought of, Jiang Xun firmly said, "I don't like him."
Jin Chen froze for a moment, then chuckled lightly, "I know."
"Knowing jack shit, do you even know I still like you?"
Jiang Xun silently complained to himself; saying it out loud made him feel much lighter, but he still felt some oppression inside.
He turned to face Jin Chen, "Deskmate, lend me a shoulder."
The tone he used when speaking to Jin Chen was a vulnerability he himself hadn't realized.
Jin Chen pulled the person into his embrace, arms tightly holding the boy who was showing his vulnerable side, releasing some pheromones to soothe.
"Don't be sad."
Jiang Xun leaned into the embrace, subconsciously rubbing his chest, feeling an unprecedented sense of security.
He suddenly felt that being protected was not a bad thing at all.
"Jin Chen, I think I've become a bit dependent on you," he murmured in Jin Chen's embrace, his tone ambiguous.
"I'm very happy." Jin Chen gently stroked his back, his tone also unprecedentedly gentle: "Brother Jiang can also be little Xun."
Jiang Xun's back stiffened, the touched spot feeling like an electric shock, and then being called such an embarrassing nickname.
His cheek temperature suddenly rose.
【Villain Heartthrob Value detected: 5, total 45!】
"Don't touch me..." Jiang Xun had wanted to refuse being petted, but as soon as the words left his mouth they felt even stranger, and he stopped mid-sentence.
Jiang Xun, whose mood had largely recovered, finally remembered his own pursuit plan.
His eyeballs rolled, and he also released some rum-scented pheromones; the two pheromones instantly entangled with each other, intertwining in their breath.
Jin Chen's breath sank, his gaze deepening.
"Little Xun, what are you doing?"
"Let's test it," Jiang Xun said with a smug tone, "Is my pheromone nicer-smelling than yours?"
"Yes, your pheromone smells great."
Jin Chen's tone grew hoarse, and thinking that moving too fast would scare him, he could only forcibly suppress the thoughts bubbling in his heart.
But his gaze had grown so deep, as if he could tear the oblivious boy clinging to him apart and swallow him whole.
Jiang Xun shivered for no reason, yet he didn't see any other reaction from Jin Chen.
He isn't an Enigma, is he! He's already released his pheromone, why is there no reaction at all!
He's actually a Liu Xiaohui who sits with arms unmoved.
Jiang Xun understood; he still needed to pursue him gradually.
He gathered his pheromone, stood up from Jin Chen's embrace, and said, "My mood is already better!"
Jin Chen flicked his fingertips, took a deep breath to steady his emotions.
"Back to the classroom?"
"Of course, I still have to study; I'm super excited for the gift from the monthly exam!"
"Wait a moment."
Jin Chen took out a blocking agent from his uniform pocket; Jiang Xun realized their pheromones were now strong on him, so he obediently turned around to let him spray.
"You actually still carry this thing around."
Jin Chen: "If my pheromone leaks, it'll be very troublesome."
Jiang Xun hissed, "Yeah, the problem of Alpha pheromone leakage is already this big; if it were an Enigma… that would be a terrorist attack!"
Moreover, it would let others smell the pheromone too.
"Then you need to prepare a few more from now on—don't ever forget."
Jiang Xun hurriedly reminded.
"Got it," Jin Chen flicked his forehead, "Back to the classroom."
"Don't hit my head like that; if I get stupid, Brother Jiang will beat you up."
Jiang Xun muttered, all his bad emotions gone.
