Zhan Weiyang was in a bad mood. He failed again, and he had less and less time.
Since that day when it drizzled, the weather has seemed constantly rainy and gloomy, making people feel downhearted as well.
During this period, with the midterm exams, Zhan Weiyang’s mind went completely blank when he received his test paper.
His grades were not good to begin with, and Zhan Pengcheng spent money and used his connections to arrange for him to enter this middle school. The teachers did not have any expectations for him, so they usually did not pay attention to him.
In the end, Zhan Weiyang was distracted during the entire exam and only got a few questions right when he finally handed in his paper for correction.
According to Zhan Weiyang’s usual level, it would not be like this.
So as soon as the exam was over, the teacher couldn’t help but call his parents.
It happened that Zhan Pengcheng had a very important work meeting that day, and he really couldn’t go to school. After consideration, the matter was entrusted to Pei Qing.
Pei Qing took half a day off from the company where he was interning and went to Zhan Weiyang’s school in the afternoon.
When he entered the school gate, it was right after class had ended. As he walked to the teaching building, he attracted the attention of countless girls. When he walked into the building and up the stairs, every passerby, whether male or female, glanced at him.
When he walked to Zhan Weiyang’s class teacher’s office, the homeroom teacher was talking to other teachers and didn’t notice him.
Pei Qing knocked on the door and said, “Hello, I am Zhan Weiyang’s older cousin.”
The three teachers in the office turned their heads at the same time. The homeroom teacher was a woman in her early 40s. Seeing Pei Qing, she frowned slightly and said, “Where is his father?”
Pei Qing replied, “Sorry Teacher, my uncle really can’t find the time, but he told me that I should carefully report the issues you mentioned to him when I get back.”
It was obvious that the homeroom teacher was still very dissatisfied but only reluctantly accepted. She invited Pei Qing to come in and then took the report card of the midterm exam to Pei Qing.
Pei Qing picked up the score sheet and looked at it silently.
The homeroom teacher said, “Since you are here, take a picture and take it back to his father, I won’t send him WeChat.”
Pei Qing nodded and took a picture with his mobile phone.
The homeroom teacher said, “Zhan Weiyang’s situation is quite special. Since the school has arranged for him to be in my class, I can understand. I have no prejudice against him. Although his grades have always been poor, he is still obedient. In the past, he always answered the questions seriously regardless of whether he could do them or not. But this time, he was obviously absent-minded.”
After saying that, the homeroom teacher took out the math test paper she taught and showed it to Pei Qing.
Pei Qing saw that several big questions at the back of the test paper were blank.
The homeroom teacher said, “If he had written a little bit of the solution to the problem, he wouldn’t have failed to get a single point.”
Pei Qing nodded sincerely and said, “I agree.”
At this time, the class bell rang, and the young female teacher at the desk next to her picked up the book and stood up, passed by Pei Qing and went out to the office to teach the students.
Outside the office, the originally noisy environment gradually quieted down, and the students of the whole school went back to the classroom to prepare for class.
The homeroom teacher’s voice also subconsciously lowered. She said to Pei Qing, “I wanted to talk to him first, but I was afraid that I couldn’t control the degree of speaking. Do you understand?”
Pei Qing responded, “I understand.”
The homeroom teacher said, “That’s why I want to call his father to tell him about Zhan Weiyang’s situation in detail so that I could analyse why he’s become like this recently, but it turns out that this father is still irresponsible.”
Pei Qing had to explain, “He really can’t get away from work.”
The homeroom teacher’s tone was a little stern, “What is there to be unable to leave? Is there anything more important than the child’s learning status? Besides, Zhan Weiyang is not an ordinary child!”
Pei Qing listened quietly and did not explain again.
The homeroom teacher said, “That’s it, you go back and talk to his father first, find out the reason for Zhan Weiyang’s recent state, if he has time to come to school, we will talk in detail.”
She felt that Pei Qing looked too young and seemed unwilling to spend too much time communicating with Pei Qing.
Pei Qing said, “Okay, thank you, Teacher.”
After leaving the teacher’s office, it was already the last class of the afternoon. Pei Qing didn’t leave the school immediately. Instead, he walked to Zhan Weiyang’s classroom and stood outside the window near the back door, looking inside.
He found Zhan Weiyang.
Zhan Weiyang was looking at the blackboard with one hand supporting his chin, looking very focused, but his eyes were obviously empty.
Pei Qing was a little worried.
Zhan Weiyang’s condition was not right, of course, not only in this midterm exam. Pei Qing had noticed that he was a little abnormal since Zhan Weiyang said he had no time.
It had been raining heavily in recent days, and Pei Qing found that Zhan Weiyang spent a lot of energy on his flower pots. Sometimes, he dragged his flower pots to the eaves near the balcony door to shelter from the rain and dragged them over again when he saw the rain stopped. He tossed and turned as if he was not satisfied with where he put them.
Pei Qing suspected that if the flower pot was not too big and too heavy, Zhan Weiyang might have carried it to his bed and curled himself up in it to sleep at night.
Pei Qing tried to talk to him about this matter again, but Zhan Weiyang refused to talk about it.
Zhan Weiyang was not upset. He still relied on Pei Qing. He liked kissing and hugging him, but he didn’t want to talk about the topic that he didn’t have much time.
Pei Qing wanted to find Chen Youyou, but they had a midterm exam. He felt that the timing was not right, so he delayed it until now.
Today, Pei Qing wanted to figure this out anyway.
He found that a student sitting in the back row of the classroom noticed him and turned to look out the window, so he stepped back from the classroom door and walked along the corridor to the stairwell. He stopped and stood against the wall with his arms folded in front of his chest.
Waiting for the end of get out of class was a long time. Pei Qing didn’t play with his phone because he was worried. He just stood there quietly.
Until the end of class, when students excitedly ran out of the classroom, he stood at the stairway, so nearly everyone had to pass by him, and inevitably, many would look at him.
Pei Qing looked young, but his temperament was no longer like a high school student. In addition, his appearance was really outstanding, so it was hard not to attract attention when he appeared on campus.
This feeling of being watched by everyone was not pleasant, but Pei Qing had been accustomed to other people’s eyes since he was a child, so he could stay at ease.
After five or six minutes had passed and most of the students had already left the teaching building, Pei Qing still hadn’t seen Zhan Weiyang and the others come out, so he walked again toward Zhan Weiyang’s classroom.
The back door of the classroom was open. Pei Qing walked to the door and saw Zhan Weiyang and Chen Youyou had not left yet. The two of them were slowly cleaning the table while chatting about something.
When Pei Qing walked in, they didn’t notice it at first, until Pei Qing walked to the front of their desks and said, “Let’s go, I’ll take you to dinner.”
Zhan Weiyang and Chen Youyou were both startled.
Especially Zhan Weiyang, he looked up with a shocked face and looked at Pei Qing for a long time without saying a word.
Pei Qing picked up one of them in each hand and led them out of the classroom, asking at the same time, “What do you want to eat for dinner?”
Zhan Weiyang still didn’t react.
After a long while, Chen Youyou stammered, “E-eat grilled fish.”
Pei Qing looked down at Zhan Weiyang and saw that he didn’t object, so he said, “Okay, let’s eat grilled fish.”
