The Monster I Was Redeemed

"...I am deeply saddened by this..."

The speeches on the stage continued. Except for the first few rows, the students in the back began to chat in low voices. The boys and girls were sitting together, so there were many topics.

However, they still know what to do. Now that the principal is speaking above, the head teacher will come to visit from time to time, so it is not too obvious.

"...Ai Liang from our school has played an important role in the investigation of the case, advancing the progress of the case and assisting the police in obtaining key evidence! His quality and spirit are worth learning and promoting... ...I hereby offer a commendation! Ai Liang, please come to the stage!"

After speaking on the stage, the principal took the lead in applauding, and soon there was thunderous applause from below.

Ai Liang, who was reading a novel, suddenly heard someone call his name on the stage, and he raised his head for some reason.

"Xiao Ai, hurry up..." Seeing the head teacher's eyes swept over to Ma Yu, he shoved the phone under his butt.

Ai Liang put down the novel and walked towards the podium.

"It is thanks to the efforts of Ai Liang that the real murderer was caught so quickly. For this reason, the police specially sent a pennant to show their appreciation!" The principal happily supported Ai Liang's shoulder and turned his body to the stage. Down.

This was obviously a deliberate attempt to magnify Ai Liang's credit. Ai Liang looked at the principal and then at Yue Qihua in the stands without saying anything.

The principal finally showed the true appearance of the cylinder he had been holding in his hand and handed it to Ai Liang under the camera's lens.

Clap clap clap clap.

After taking over the pennant, there was another round of applause.

Ai Liang forced a smile towards the camera, no need to think that this pennant must have been sent by Shi Feng. It is estimated that it was sent to the school to satisfy the expressive desire of normal teenagers, which is why the principal temporarily added it.

Ai Liang returned to his seat and sat down under the watchful eyes of all the teachers and students, which made the girls who couldn't see Ai Liang all squatted and stood up. Even after being reprimanded by the class teachers, many people still looked here.

"Sorry."

"It's ok."

The headless conversation between Yue Qihua and Ai Liang made Yang Xingyue puzzled: "What are you two saying, Huahua, why can't I understand?"

"Of course I apologize to Ai Liang, otherwise what else could it be." Yue Qihua bit the lollipop stick and looked at the principal with a hint of complaint in her eyes.

"Why do you suddenly apologize?"

"Apologize for my uncle, he obviously used Ai Liang's credit to win glory for the school without Ai Liang's permission." Yue Qihua's tone was very unpleasant. "I know that he's been under a lot of pressure recently because of Gao Jiajia's death, but it's not too much to use Ai Liang without his consent and to shake out his assistance in handling the case without his consent? Anyway, let's say it in advance!"

Yue Qihua crushed the lollipop in one bite and took out a napkin to wrap the candy cane. "He's just like this. He doesn't even have the most basic respect when he is young, so my grandfather doesn't like his eldest son very much."

After Yue Qihua's explanation, Yang Xingyue finally understood that she hurriedly comforted Ai Liang: "Let's go back and let Grandpa teach Uncle Yue a good lesson, Ai Liang, don't take it to heart."

By the way, Yang Xingyue's grandfather is Yue Qihua's grandfather. She has lived in Yue Qihua's house since she was a child.

At that time, the parents of both parties directly pointed to the marriage, but it was only because they were daughters that they gave up.

"It's okay, I don't care."

Ai Liang rolled up the pennant and put it away, but he was no longer in the mood to read novels. He took out his mobile phone and chatted with netizens.

"But Xiao Ai, did you really help the police with the case this weekend?" Ma Yu couldn't get involved in other people's housework and could only divert the topic.

"Um."

"Squatting in someone else's community for more than ten hours?"

"Um."

"Uh...why do you want to do this..."

Ma Yu probed carefully.

Not to mention others, even he had some doubts about whether Ai Liang liked Gao Jiajia, otherwise there was no need to fight to this extent for a girl who confessed to him?

"If you don't want to say it..." Ma Yu added immediately.

If Ai Liang really accepts Gao Jiajia's confession, doesn't this mean that the scars are exposed.

Compared with Ma Yuyue Qihua, it is more direct: "Ai Liang, just say whether you like Gao Jiajia or not, did you accept someone's confession that night?"

"Hey! Huahua!" Yang Xingyue's face changed suddenly. On Friday, Fang Xiaoxiao in the milk tea shop joked that Ai Liang likes Gao Jiajia. Ai Liang never answered Fang Xiao's question directly and always chose to change the topic.

The speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional, and Yang Xingyue has been thinking about this for the past few days and is very uneasy.

"I didn't like her, and I didn't accept the confession."

Ai Liang raised her lowered head: "I just saw her father crying very sad and wanted to do something."

"Did you hear me?" After Yue Qihua finished speaking, she deliberately glanced at Yang Xingyue. She was always sighing from time to time these days, and Yue Qihua's head was getting bigger when she sighed.

Yang Xingyue was embarrassed to avoid her eyes.

Among the four, only Yue Qihua has always been convinced that Ai Liang did not act because of Gao Jiajia. After all, the Ai Liang she knew first had a much higher understanding of Ai Liang's character than Yang Xingyue and Ma Yu.

The meeting on the stage was still going on, and the whole morning was spent like this. As the principal gave a speech summarizing the meeting, the students returned to the class one after another, and some of them went straight to the cafeteria to eat.

There is still more than half an hour before school is over at noon, and this time is specially set aside for students to ask for leave.

In the last month of preparation for the exam, many parents spent money on special tutoring for their children. 30,000 yuan for 21 days, and an average of 10,000 yuan for one week of courses. This is the basic cost of tutoring for exam preparation.

If you are willing to spend money, some tutors can even train students who haven’t read for three years into exam-oriented students within a month. Of course, the premise is that the students themselves are willing to cooperate.

Ai Liang's method of teaching Yang Xingyue is a common method for preparing for this kind of tutoring.

A few people returned to the teaching building, and it was not as crowded as when they went back, because most of the students went directly to the cafeteria or restaurants outside to eat.

Anyway, they are about to graduate, and their courage has gradually increased. As long as there is no major violation of discipline during the graduation season, teachers will turn a blind eye.

Just when Ma Yu complained about changing to a large-capacity mobile phone during the summer vacation, a middle-aged woman in her thirties stopped in front of several people: "Ma Yu, what about Xiao Xiao?"

"Mom? Why did you come here?" Ma Yu was a little surprised.

"Didn't I come over to sign the slip for you, not to mention this little one?" Ma Yu's mother kept asking Fang Xiaoxiao's whereabouts.

"Signing to go to the office to find a teacher, what are you doing here? You're gone." Ma Yu pushed his mother to the office with both hands.

"Hey, you haven't told me where Xiao Xiao Pao is, and the student must be present to sign." Ma Yu's mother looked around while being pushed away by Ma Yu.

"I'm here!"

Fang Xiao's voice came from the corridor.

"Hey!" Fang Xiaoxiao plunged into Ma Yu's mother's arms, who didn't know that she thought it was her own mother, while Ma Yu himself was left out and watched Fang Xiaoxiao act like a spoiled child with his mother.

"Ugh......"

Ma Yu sighed and said, "I suspect that I was adopted by them."

Yue Qihua looked at the coquettish Fang Xiaoxiao and said, "Isn't it good, at least you don't have to worry about the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the future."

"I'm just worried about this! Whether it's Xiao Xiao's father or my parents, they dote on her. If I make her angry in the future, I'm afraid I won't be swept out of the house directly."

Ma Yu's words were filled with despair for the future.

Ai Liang glanced at him and didn't say a word. In his opinion, this was a happy trouble. He had never experienced family affection in his life.

According to Ai Liang, the relationship between Ma Yu and Fang Xiaoxiao is similar to that of Yue Qihua and Yang Xingyue. The two families have been neighbors for decades, and they know each other well. Both parents express their support for their relationship.

"Come on, mom will take you to the office to ask for leave."

Ma Yu's mother pinched Fang Xiaoxiao's face with a smile, then turned around and pulled Fang Xiaoxiao away.

"Mom! Don't forget me!" Seeing this, Ma Yu hurried to catch up with Ai Liang and the others.

"Don't you have long legs, so you can't keep up with yourself?" Ma Yu's mother's tone was full of disgust, and she turned into a smiling face when Fang Xiao Hou: "Remember to tell me who is your head teacher."

"Hmm! My head teacher wears a pair of golden glasses..."

I don't know why, looking at Ma Yu's back chasing after him, Ai Liang suddenly had a sense of sight as if his mother and daughter had left the dog at home in a spring outing.

Looking at Ma Yu's embarrassed figure, Yang Xingyue laughed and asked Ai Liang, "Ai Liang, aren't you going to ask for leave?"

Ai Liang was busy using her mobile phone to reply to the message and asked without raising her head: "I have asked you before, how about you?"

"Huahua and I don't have to ask the head teacher to sign, just tell Uncle Huahua directly."

Yang Xingyue saw that Ai Liang was chatting with netizens on his mobile phone and poked his arm again: "Ai Liang, there are two girls beside you, can you please not stare at the phone all the time, we will be embarrassed."

"Oh, sorry."

"That netizen should have a good relationship with you, right? What are you guys talking about?"

Yang Xingyue came over and wanted to see Ai Liang's chat interface. The two of them were very close. Yang Xingyue's hair was hanging down on Ai Liang's neck. Her hair was cold and itchy, but it was also very comfortable.

Ai Liang's hands were quick and fast, and when Yang Xingyue just got close, she put her phone on the screen, and she only had time to see a name.

"Well, I'm so stingy." Yang Xingyue patted his shoulder lightly, pretending to be dissatisfied, rather than venting, it was more coquettish.

Yue Qihua held her chin and asked, "Speaking of which, Ai Liang, you and that netizen have known each other for a while. I remember that when you first met you, you held your mobile phone and chatted with that person all day. Have you ever met each other in real life? "

"Eh? Have you known each other for so long?" Yang Xingyue was a little surprised.

Such things as netizens are all due to the hot conversation between the two sides on a certain topic at the beginning. As time goes by and new netizens are met, old netizens will slowly cut off contact and become a thing of the past. People like Ai Liang have known each other for several years. There is very little to talk about.

"She's not a native of Nevada City. We haven't met, and we don't plan to meet. It's good to keep it as it is now." Ai Liang turned on the phone again and explained without looking up.

Yue Qihua was a little curious: "I'm a little curious about who can talk to you, a boring gourd."

"It's mainly she who said it, I listen." Ai Liang replied.

Yang Xingyue smiled: "Is the other party male or female? It should be a boy."

Ai Liang glanced at her: "She said she was a woman, but I don't know the real situation. She usually talks to me about trivial things in life, such as firewood, rice, oil and salt, or some work experience. Fifteen to thirty years old."

'Occasionally she also takes care of my life. ' Ai Liang didn't say this, but repeated it in his heart.

In Ai Liang's heart, he has always regarded this netizen as a good friend. Although he usually talks about trivial matters, these trivial matters have a strong sense of life, which is something that cannot be felt in the apartment.

And some words are inconvenient to say in front of acquaintances, but you can speak freely on the Internet. Ai Liang has also poured bitterness with others and complained about her family. Anyway, everyone is strangers and they don't know each other. Some things are known. It doesn't matter.

In front of Yang Xingyue and others, Ai Liang chose to hide it. He didn't want to mix other feelings into the simple relationship with classmates.

Ai Liang looked up and looked around the next classroom, plus there were less than ten of them, and they were all busy with their own business. He put away his phone and got up and said, "It's getting late, I'll go to dinner first."

Yang Xingyue looked at the wall clock in the classroom and said, "It's already at this point... The lower grades are about to finish class. Ai Liang might as well be with us..."

"No." Ai Liang politely refused Yang Xingyue's invitation to leave the classroom and walk towards the cafeteria alone.

He walked quickly and resolutely, without any nostalgia.

Yang Xingyue frowned aggrievedly and looked at Yue Qihua.

Yue Qihua innocently peeled off a piece of chewing gum and threw it into her mouth: "Look at me, it's not like you don't know Ai Liang's character, how could he sit with us in the cafeteria. Usually it's nothing in the classroom. Going to the cafeteria to eat together is really eye-catching.”

Yang Xingyue said a little unwillingly: "He went to the bookstore with me on weekends..."

"One code is one code. I go to the bookstore with you on weekends to help you choose tutorial books, and why do we go to the cafeteria to eat together? Tell you what chemical reactions are produced by the dishes on the plate?"

Yue Qihua said unceremoniously, "Have you ever had any other interactions with Ai Liang besides tutoring and study?"

"Forehead......"

After Yue Qihua said this, Yang Xingyue realized that it was indeed the case.

"So when you are alone with Ai Liang, try to talk about other topics, don't always bury your head in the questions and let him explain, otherwise you won't have any common language except learning the two of you."

"But...what should we talk about?"

Yang Xingyue thought for a while, but couldn't come up with a reason, so she had to ask her Huahua for help again.

"Isn't Ai Liang usually fond of reading novels? What else can we talk about novels? You buy two novels, give one to him as a thank you gift, and keep the other for yourself to read, and then find an opportunity to discuss the plot together. "Yue Qihua immediately proposed a solution, which made Yang Xingyue's eyes shine.

"Yes, Huahua is still smart!" Yang Xingyue hugged Yue Qihua's body at once, rubbing her chest with a bright smile.

"Okay, get up, the lower grades will be dismissed soon, and it will be too late if they don't go to the cafeteria."

Yue Qihua patted Yang Xingyue's head helplessly, she was really heartbroken for this half-sister.
