A great director who grew up happily

It didn't take long before Ding Yi's parents came to the door. Both of them looked polite and respectable. As soon as they entered the door, they bowed and apologized to Ji Shengli.

However, when they saw Ding Yi, their expressions immediately changed, looking cold and extremely stern.

Father Ding scolded loudly: "What are you still doing sitting there? Apologize to them immediately. You are already such an adult, can you be more sensible and let your mother and I worry less?"

Hearing the other party's harsh tone, Chen Jinnian frowned. He felt that he had oversimplified the cause of Ding Yi's depression. Changing his university choice might be the exacerbating factor, but not the only reason.

Liu Jing quickly stepped forward to smooth things over, saying, "Ding Yi, these are some reference books you left here. They haven't been moved since we moved in. Take a look and see if you left them behind."

After Ding Yi took it, he held it in his arms without even looking at it, and said excitedly: "Thank you, Auntie, thank you, Auntie."

"You're running out every day just for two crappy books, and you even broke into houses and stole things. It's really that serious! You're not ashamed of it, but I am. You've completely embarrassed me."

When Ding's father saw his son like this, he became even more furious. Looking at his violent expression, it seemed as if he was ready to beat Ding up to vent his anger at any time.

"Hey, it's not that serious. If there is anything, just communicate properly. There is nothing that cannot be solved." Ji Shengli quickly advised, fearing that the father and son would start a fight.

"You don't know, my child is such a worry to me. Well, let's not talk about it anymore. I'm sorry for the trouble I've caused you today because of my poor parenting. I'm going to take him away right now."

Father Ding sighed, shook his head, and said helplessly.

The Ding family was about to leave, and the rest of the people stood up to see them off. Only Chen Jinnian remained standing there without moving. He saw clearly that before Ding Yi left, he turned back to look at Ji Yangyang's bedroom, as if he was reluctant to leave.

But he did not stop and was pushed out by Ding's father.

After returning, Wang Yidi angrily said, "Ding Yi's father is really terrible. How could he treat Ding Yi like that? It doesn't feel like they are father and son at all. It feels like they are a prison guard and a prisoner."

"Start and stop. Even prison guards are not allowed to beat or scold prisoners at will." Qiao Yingzi added.

Ji Yangyang also nodded in agreement, "I think my dad is pretty good now."

Ji Shengli, who was still closing the door, heard this and suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He whispered to Liu Jing, "Am I that bad? I think I'm pretty good to Yang Yang."

"Hehe, it's the same. One treats his son as a prisoner, and the other treats his son as a subordinate. I don't think there is much difference." Liu Jing smiled and teased him twice, which was rare.

"No, no, no." When everyone was immersed in the discussion, Chen Jinnian suddenly said, "Ding Yi must have left something in the bedroom. He didn't take everything away."

Ji Yangyang flatly denied it, "Impossible, I just looked everywhere, there are only these few books, the rest..."

"Test papers, and test papers on the wall." Liu Jing suddenly recalled that when she first came to see the house, she was shocked by the test papers all over the bedroom and the words written on them.

"Is there anything else?" Chen Jinnian asked hurriedly.

"Yes, because the test paper is stuck on the wall and it's difficult to tear it off, I just covered it with other things. Come in with me." Liu Jing called Chen Jinnian over.

Ji Yangyang looked at Ji Shengli in confusion. He had been living in the bedroom for two or three months, so how come he didn't know about this?

But Ji Shengli couldn't give an answer, because he didn't know about this matter either. Liu Jing and Liu Zheng were in charge of renting and decorating the house inside and out.

As for Wang Yidi and Qiao Yingzi, they had already followed over to see what it was.

After Chen Jinnian entered the bedroom, under Liu Jing's instructions, he took down a framed autographed Kobe jersey and then unfolded the test paper hidden behind it.

The test papers had been tried to be cleaned, but because they were glued too firmly, most of them were still stuck to the wall, so Chen Jinnian could still clearly see the words "I hate" written all over them in marker.

However, the positions and font sizes of the words on several adjacent test papers are not exactly the same. He believes that these may not have been written in a short period of time, and may have been pasted one after another over a long period of time.

"These are just a few. There are many more behind the wardrobe. Do we need to move those too?"

"No, no." Chen Jinnian waved his hand, his eyes still fixed on the wall. "Hey, why do I see some other words on it?"

Chen Jinnian took off his shoes, stepped on the sofa, and leaned over the wall to look carefully. There was a line of small words written on it with a light blue ballpoint pen. Perhaps the color was originally very light, or perhaps it was faded. In any case, the content was difficult to make out.

"What, there are other words? I didn't notice them at the time." Liu Jing said in surprise.

Ji Yangyang also came in from the doorway and imitated Chen Jinnian, leaning over to look carefully. "There's also this paper. It says what this is. I can't see it clearly. It says what class I had today. I'm so tired. I hate it. Why do I have to learn this and that?"

He tried to read it, but found that he couldn't make out what was written.

"Old Ji, where is our magnifying glass? Bring it here quickly." Liu Jing turned around and shouted to Ji Shengli.

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll go find it."

Chen Jinnian couldn't see clearly either, but he noticed that there was a blank space at the top of each paper, but some had more words, some had less. He said, "It seems like every paper has it. Could Ding Yi have written his diary here? Such small words must be difficult to write."

"Diary?" Wang Yidi and Qiao Yingzi looked at each other, squeezed in from the bedroom door at the same time, stood next to Liu Jing, and looked up.

Chen Jinnian didn't answer them, still carefully identifying, "I borrowed something a few days ago, I really don't want to..., what don't I want to miss? I have an exam, I just don't want to miss it."

"We found the magnifying glass." Ji Shengli hurried over with it. After being passed from hand to hand by everyone, it was soon delivered to Chen Jinnian.

He put the magnifying glass close to the test paper, then tilted his head back slightly, trying to make out the handwriting, and read it word by word.

"I borrowed a book called To Live a few days ago, and after reading half of it, I really don't want to live anymore."

"Ah, when did he write this?" Chen Jinnian quickly checked the paper and found that it was from the monthly math exam in the first semester of senior year.

"What! He didn't want to live in his senior year of high school. Doesn't that mean it was a year ago?" He said in astonishment. I only knew that Ding Yi jumped off the building. At first he thought it was because of the university application problem. Now it seems that it was much earlier than that. He may have attempted suicide more than once.

Qiao Yingzi also shared what she knew, "This is all because of his parents. Whether he's taking extra classes at my house or at school, his parents always pick him up and drop him off on time, leaving him no time to relax. They also force him to study until one or two o'clock every night."

"Ah, let alone a child, even a person of iron can't endure this."

Ji Shengli couldn't help but be amazed. He was considered stupid when he was in school. Fang Yuan studied hard for a semester and was admitted to the School of Political Science and Law, and he had to repeat a year before he was admitted.

In order to go to college, he worked very hard and used stupid methods to study, but he never reached this level.

"It's bad!" Chen Jinnian suddenly woke up, jumped off the sofa, hurriedly put on his shoes and ran out.

"What's wrong?" Wang Yidi asked.

"What else can happen? Don't really jump into the lake, this silly boy. The place I said is shallow, but other places are very deep." Chen Jinnian regretted a little why he mentioned this just now. Isn't this just being rude?

The others also reacted and quickly followed after him.

The park is not far away, but rushing there with snow did waste some time.

But before he got there, he saw an ambulance parked on the side of the road, with lights flashing on the roof and a group of people surrounding it.
