Yi Jie lived at her grandparents' house until the third year of junior high school, and her mother took them back to Wen County. One reason was that the housewarming party for the new house had not been held yet, and the other reason was that Yi Jie had to start updating her vlog, as her sponsors were all waiting to feed her.

In the past two days, Zhang Huimin's family has not given up the idea of ​​making trouble for her. They take advantage of opportunities whenever and wherever they can, and are as annoying as little flies.

It is impossible for Yi Jie to lose in terms of words, and even more impossible in terms of body. One against three is not a problem. Anyway, one against one, two against two.

Zhang Peiyao avoided Zhang Huimin and sent out invitations to all the relatives she knew well for a housewarming party. She was too lazy to do such a thankless task as who knew what kind of trouble they would cause when they came.

As soon as they got home, the three of them started to get busy with their own things. Zhang Peiyao prepared matters related to the banquet, Yi Jie was naturally responsible for the three things: studying, taking on promotions, and shooting and editing. As a child, Yi Chen of course just needed to play happily.

Yi Jie saw him staring at the cartoons on TV without blinking, and she wished that time could go back ten years so that she could relive her happy childhood. However, Chi Chi quickly rejected her idea, and Yi Jie could only accept her fate and continue to be a busy little bee.

The housewarming party was scheduled for the eighth day of the first lunar month, and was held at a restaurant near Wenxinju to entertain relatives and friends. Probably because she was in high spirits due to the happy event, Zhang Peiyao looked radiant and beautiful, and did not look like a woman who was almost forty at all.

Yi Jie took the opportunity to reveal her idea of ​​wanting her to get a driver's license and buy a car for the family in the future. Zhang Peiyao was in a good mood and agreed after thinking about it for a while. Having a car at home would indeed be much more convenient.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, the sky was clear and the air was fresh, which was a good day. Yan's Restaurant near Wenxinju was bustling with people, as Yi Jie's family was holding a housewarming party.

Everyone congratulated Zhang Peiyao and wished her a happy ending after all the hard work, and Zhang Peiyao accepted it all. As the protagonists of today, Yi Jie and Yi Chen naturally received a lot of praise from the elders, and their faces were almost frozen with laughter throughout the whole process.

After finally finding some free time, she said hello to her mother and ran out to get some fresh air. But she was almost suffocated. She could understand why those who had to socialize for a long time felt uncomfortable.

Opposite the Yanjia Restaurant is a park, and beside the park runs a moat. People now call it Qingshui River, and according to historical records, Qingshui River is indeed the moat of Wen County.

Yi Jie lay on the fence high above the Qingshui River to breathe fresh air.

In winter, the wind was very cold and few people went out. Yi Jie was shivering a little. After stretching her muscles, she was about to leave when she noticed a thin boy in school uniform who was about to climb over the railing and jump into the river.

No! Yi Jie screamed in her heart, and her actions were faster than her thoughts. She ran to the boy at an extraordinary speed, grabbed him and pulled him down the fence.

Perhaps it was the sudden outburst, even Yi Jie, who had excellent physical fitness, was gasping for breath.

The boy didn't seem to expect that someone would save him. After a few seconds of silence, he fell to the ground and pounded hard against the wall under the fence, tears streaming down his face: "Why? Why don't you even give me the right to die! Why did you save me!"

It seemed that he could not vent his resentment and even started banging his head against the wall.

Yi Jie was stunned by his series of crazy actions. What the hell was going on?

It wasn't until bloodstains appeared on the wall that she reacted and controlled his body: "Wake up! Such meaningless venting can't solve the problem, it will only hurt yourself. If you have anything to say, there will always be someone who can solve it for you!"

The boy had overly long bangs, and Yi Jie hadn't been able to see his face clearly before. Because he hit the wall too hard, his bangs had spread out, revealing a handsome face that still had a childish look.

At this moment, the boy had his eyes closed tightly, with tears streaming from the corners of his eyes. The hideous wound on his forehead looked shocking, but it created a strange beauty when placed together with his face. The boy closed his lips tightly, ignoring Yi Jie's words. He looked so aggrieved that if one didn't know, one would think that she had bullied him.

I don’t think he can say anything for a while, but the wound needs to be treated in time, otherwise it will become infected later.

Worried about leaving him alone, Yi Jie grabbed his sleeve and dragged him towards a nearby pharmacy.

"Welcome to Xinghe Pharmacy!" There was only one aunt on duty in the pharmacy. Yi Jie tightly held the sleeve of the person behind her, fearing that he would run away and seek death again if she was not careful.

"Auntie, can you please tell me what kind of medicine is suitable for his wounds?" Yi Jie showed the wounds on his forehead and hands.

"Ouch, what happened? Why is there so much blood? It's scary!"

"Hey, this is not my brother. He encountered a robbery gangster and was beaten like this in order to protect me. We finally ran away. My brother became like this because of me. It's all my fault!" Yi Jie pretended to cry.

When the young man heard this nonsense, he opened his bloodstained eyelids and glanced at Yi Jie.

The aunt said indignantly, "Yes, during the Chinese New Year, a bunch of bad people came back and made trouble every day. Every day, people came to buy medicine for injuries. I said, how could the good kids of No. 1 Middle School take the initiative to fight! You wait, I'll go get the medicine."

No. 1 Middle School? Yi Jie only then noticed that the boy was wearing the uniform of Wenxian No. 1 Middle School. What could have happened to make such an excellent boy with outstanding appearance and good character to commit suicide?

She was so unlucky, how come she always encountered this kind of first crime scene! She was wearing a lucky bracelet, but the 10% of her luck was eaten up by her.

"Host, I didn't! Be careful or I'll sue you for malicious defamation!" Chi Chi protested angrily.

"Come, let me apply the medicine on him." The aunt found all the medicines and was about to apply them to the boy, but the boy started to back away, showing great resistance.

Yi Jie had no choice but to try to do it herself. She said to her aunt embarrassedly, "Aunt, my brother is naturally introverted and doesn't like to interact with outsiders. Please give me the medicine and I will apply it to him. You can go and do your work first."

Although the aunt on duty felt strange, she could only put the medicine aside, told Yi Jie how to use it, and then went back to the counter.

Yi Jie gently pulled the boy to the rest chair in the pharmacy and sat him down: "Let me apply the medicine on you. You know how strong I am. If you resist again, I will just use force. Don't blame me if I don't use enough force."

The boy raised his head and stared at Yi Jie, then lowered it again after a few seconds.

The medicine must have been quite irritating to the wound, especially when alcohol was used to wash the wound. Although Yi Jie tried to be as gentle as possible, the bulging veins on the boy's forehead still made people feel how painful it was. He didn't even make a sound despite the pain.

All the wounds were quickly treated and bandaged. Yi Jie went to the counter to pay and left the pharmacy with the boy.

Before leaving, the aunt kindly reminded the two children that it would be best for them to travel with adults during the New Year, otherwise it would be bad if they encountered danger again. Yi Jie thanked her warmly.

"Hey, where is your home? Let me take you back. I've been out for a while and I have to go back quickly, otherwise my mom will be worried." Yi Jie thought for a moment and said, "Well, if you have anything on your mind, you can tell the adults. There is nothing in life that you can't overcome. You are still young!"

When the boy heard that he was going to be sent back, his face was filled with fear, and he trembled as he said, "I... am not... going... home!"
