Those years, those jokes, those scum

"Clang~~" The iron basin fell to the ground with a shocking and harsh sound, which made people who heard it feel nervous.

When Qiao's mother heard the voice, she hurried out of the bedroom: "What's wrong with you lately? Why do you look absent-minded every day?"

"Go away, go away, you are so clumsy." Qiao's mother picked up the iron basin with quick movements and took out the mop that was already dried behind the balcony.

"Sorry, Mom." Qiao Niansheng was stunned by the harsh voice for a moment. He finally came to his senses, his left hand was obviously shaking. Then he quickly clenched his fist and put his hand behind his back.

After cleaning up, Qiao's mother realized that her son's face didn't look very good. She asked with concern, "Son, are you feeling unwell?" After saying that, Qiao's mother took a big step forward and stretched out her hand to touch Qiao Niansheng's forehead.

"I'm fine, Mom. Maybe it's because the weather has been too stuffy lately. I feel a little breathless." Qiao Niansheng turned sideways to cover up.

"Yeah, it's a very hot and humid day." Qiao's mother turned her head and looked at the gray weather outside. Suddenly, she felt a little upset. After all, this also meant that her business in the evening would be much worse than usual.

"Nian Sheng, aren't you hot in your school uniform?" She was wearing short-sleeved shirts and her arms were sticky and uncomfortable. Come to think of it, she rarely saw her own children wearing short-sleeved shirts.

"It's okay, I'm used to it."

"By the way, I haven't seen Xiao Leng come to see you recently." Mother Qiao mentioned it casually. She quite liked this polite and well-mannered child.

"She...she's had something going on lately."

"Is that so? Then when she's free..."

"Mom." Qiao Niansheng suddenly interrupted loudly, a little impatient. "If you say that, she is also a girl, it would not be good for her to come to our house when she is old."

"That's not what I meant." Qiao's mother was a little stunned by her son's sudden shouting. Her son had never spoken to her like that before.

"I, I'm going to wash the vegetables." After saying that, Qiao Niansheng hid in the kitchen, not wanting to discuss this topic anymore.

She had put on her sweater but it was sunny! What happened to the promised change in weather? Leng Nuan was also very upset about this dishonest weather. It was not that she could not accept this level of heat, but it was too warm and made her drowsy again.

But that's not the point. The point is that her friend hasn't come to see her for several days. Not to mention going to and from school together, even if they occasionally meet at school, they just walk away.

"System, is there any plot line recently?" It was rare for Leng Nuan to take the initiative to call the system.

"Hmm? No." A.K0527 checked his interface. Happiness Index: 52.8% Task Progress: 92%

"There's nothing else special." The system emphasized again.

"Is it true... As long as the characters are not related to the protagonist, nothing will happen. On the other hand, these characters are actually free."

"In theory, it's not wrong to think so."

Leng Nuan didn't ask any more questions. He tapped the tabletop with his right index finger, as if thinking about something.

The protective net vibrates and makes noises due to the impact.

"Get up, what's wrong, sissy? Why doesn't your girlfriend come to see you?" This time, the yellow-haired boy dyed his hair bright purple.

"Hehe, I never thought a sissy could find a girlfriend."

"Call her out and make friends with her."

The people around started to make a noise.

"I don't have a girlfriend." Compared to his previous silence when he was beaten, this time Qiao Niansheng denied it over and over again.

"Oh, you still dare to be so stubborn."

"Hey, Mr. Lu, you must have seen it wrong. It's been a few days and this guy hasn't admitted it." Someone began to doubt it. After all, in terms of the aesthetics of girls nowadays, they prefer sunny and handsome types. Who would like skinny sissy?

"I'm not seeing things. Maybe that person is from another school." The purple-haired boy called Mr. Lu said angrily, and then kicked the curled-up person several times.

"Okay, this is a school, be careful when you do this." Originally, Shen Congming was somewhat interested in this matter.

He has been feeling really frustrated lately. On the one hand, he has to act like a good and good student in front of his parents and elders. On the other hand, the woman he had a romantic encounter with not long ago has come back again. He originally just wanted to have some fun, but he didn't expect that the other party would pay attention to him. What's more troublesome is that this woman is said to be the younger sister of the second-in-command of the community in this area. He has to coax her well recently. Tsk, he should be more careful when doing this kind of thing in the future. He got into trouble by accident.

Who said that the open-minded woman made him feel good? But he wanted to taste the taste of the high mountain flower even more. Just thinking about it made him excited.

"I really didn't." The old injury hadn't healed yet, and a new one was added. The pain in his left shoulder was so severe that even Qiao Niansheng, who thought he was used to it, couldn't help but gasp and tremble as he shouted again. Absolutely, absolutely, they couldn't know about Leng Nuan's existence.

"It's really boring. Let's go."

"Kid, I'll let you go today. It's okay, we have plenty of time. I can always dig that person out."

Seeing that the boss had left, the others followed suit.

Perhaps the injury was too severe. After the first class in the afternoon was over, Qiao Niansheng still couldn't get up and go back to class.

"Huh~~" He turned over and looked straight at the sky which had turned grey at some point. Tears wet his cheeks as he looked.

Why does he have to live such a tiring life?

Why is he the only one who lives such a tiring life?

If he were not there, would his mother not have to live such a hard life, not having to go out early and come back late every day to earn money to support him!

If he hadn't been there, his mother would have definitely found a good man to marry while she was still young and wouldn't have to suffer the hardships of life.

If he wasn't there, Leng Nuan wouldn't have been affected.

If it weren't for him, he wouldn't have to suffer in this world.

in case……

When Qiao Niansheng came back to his senses, he had already climbed over the protective net and stood outside the rooftop. He looked at the scenery below but did not feel the slightest bit of fear.

Jump, jump and you will be free. Jump and you will be free.

Yes, he can be free now——

My whole body was suspended in mid-air, and I felt a strange sense of weightlessness. My right wrist was being tightly held by someone.

He numbly raised his head and looked towards the source of his strength. The sun that had been hidden for some reason came out again, and the dazzling sunlight made it difficult for him to see the people above him. But he heard that familiar voice saying:

"Young man, you are not afraid of death anymore, why don't you take revenge before you leave!"
