Quick Transmigration: The Villain Always Ends Up with the Male Lead

Chapter 36 The Rumors of That School Bully (21)

Shi Qi was indeed extremely tired, and he fell asleep quickly after closing his eyes.

The next morning, Jiang Zhiyi was woken up by his phone ringing first. To prevent Shi Qi from being woken up as well, he immediately answered the phone and whispered, "Hello..."

"Who are you?" came the voice of a middle-aged man.

Jiang Zhiyi was suddenly jolted awake and checked her phone: Shi Qi…

Within seconds, his brain was racing, and he walked away from where he had started: "Uncle, it's me, Jiang Zhiyi."

"Xiao Yi? How come Shi Qi's phone is with you?" Shi Zheng asked suspiciously.

Jiang Zhiyi: "Oh, it's like this. I was celebrating Shi Qi's birthday last night, and I accidentally took the wrong phone when we parted. He lives next door to me. If you need anything urgent, I can go get him now?"

He nervously rubbed his fingertips together, wondering if Shi Zheng would believe him...

There was a moment of silence on the other end before someone spoke: "No need, let him call me when he wakes up."

"Okay, goodbye Uncle."

Jiang Zhiyi breathed a sigh of relief. When he looked again, the child was already awake, probably woken up by the phone call. Jiang Zhiyi poured a glass of warm water and went over to the child.

"What's wrong?" Shi Qi's voice was a little hoarse. He took the water glass from Jiang Zhiyi and drank a few sips. Jiang Zhiyi then told him what had just happened.

Shi Qi nodded after listening and then made another call back.

"Dad, you called me so early in the morning, is something wrong?"

Shi Zheng didn't ask where Shi Qi went last night; he clearly knew perfectly well that asking now would be pointless.

"Is there something going on between you and Jiang Zhiyi?" He had a vague, bad feeling about it.

"What do you think?" Shi Qi asked in return.

"..." Shi Zheng remained silent for a long time.

"You come back this afternoon, and bring Jiang Zhiyi with you..." It wasn't hard to hear the suppressed anger in his tone.

"Okay, I understand." After hanging up, she looked at Jiang Zhiyi.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Zhiyi asked.

"My dad wants me to take you back with me this afternoon."

Jiang Zhiyi: "..." So my lie was all for nothing.

----

In the afternoon, Jiang Zhiyi accompanied Shi Qi to the Shi family's residence. Although he was a regular visitor there, he still couldn't help feeling apprehensive in this situation.

Shi Qi squeezed his palm: "If he says anything too nasty, we'll just leave."

Jiang Zhiyi smiled silently, believing that Shi Qi was fully capable of doing it.

The door opened, and He Shuyao was waiting for them. Shi Zheng, on the other hand, sat on the sofa, watching television with a cold expression, not sparing them a single glance.

Shi Qi looked at He Shuyao, his eyes asking – how is the situation?

He Shuyao also looked at him and nodded slightly—there was hope.

He led the two to the sofa and sat down. Shi Zheng glanced coldly at Jiang Zhiyi, who was about to sit down. He Shuyao patted him when she saw this, and he looked away without saying anything.

After leaving them speechless for a long time, he finally spoke: "Does your mother know about this?"

Jiang Zhiyi shook his head: "I plan to tell her after the college entrance examination."

Shi Zheng nodded, but his expression clearly showed some dissatisfaction.

Then, Shi Qi spoke up and bluntly said, "If it weren't for this phone call today, I wouldn't have planned to tell you now." It had a strong sense of "having a wife and forgetting about her father."

Jiang Zhiyi knew that Shi Qi was protecting her, and looked at him with gratitude.

Shi Zheng, feeling somewhat embarrassed, snapped at Shi Qi, "Go back to your room." Shi Qi left speechlessly.

He then looked at Jiang Zhiyi: "How can you students who haven't even graduated from high school predict the future?"

Jiang Zhiyi: "Indeed, no one can predict the future. You may also think it's ridiculous for adults like us to talk about the future and responsibilities, but I still want to say that this is the first and only thing I can do right now. I don't think I can't do it."

At this moment, He Shuyao stepped in to play the good cop: "Xiao Yi, we actually know that Xiao Qi's achievements today are largely due to your contributions."

"And Xiao Qi really does like you, so when he told me that, I didn't think it was a bad thing. I just hope you two can have a good future together." She said all of this in advance, which she had discussed with Shi Zheng.

Shi Zheng snorted: "I reluctantly agree to you two being together, but whether you can satisfy me or not depends on your future performance."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhiyi's face lit up with joy. He then stood up and bowed deeply to Shi's parents.

"Thank you both. I will dedicate my life to fulfilling my promise."

Politics: "I hope you can do it."

He Shuyao stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "Alright, go upstairs and find Xiao Qi."

----

"He agreed, didn't he?" Shi Qi said in a declarative sentence.

Jiang Zhiyi nodded: "Why aren't you surprised at all?"

"As expected, my mom started brainwashing my dad a year ago."

So early? This was something Jiang Zhiyi hadn't expected. He suddenly felt a little ashamed; Shi Qi had explained everything to his mother so early, but he himself hadn't had the courage to tell Lin Jingwen before graduation.

Shi Qi noticed his dejected state and asked, "What's wrong?" Before he could finish speaking, his mouth was covered by a gag, and Jiang Zhiyi only released him after a long while.

"Xiao Qi, thank you."

Having just finished kissing, her eyes were slightly red and moist, and her breathing was a little erratic: "What are you thanking me for? Isn't this something that had to be dealt with sooner or later?"

Jiang Zhiyi: "I'll tell my mom the truth when I get home tonight."

Shi Qi shook his head in disapproval: "It's not safe enough. Your mother hasn't been under that kind of subtle influence for a year."

"Don't worry, leave it to me. If I can't even handle this, I don't deserve to be with you." Jiang Zhiyi gave him a firm look...

He Shuyao tried to persuade him to stay: "Xiao Yi, are you really not staying for dinner?"

Jiang Zhiyi smiled and shook his head in refusal: "Auntie, thank you for your kindness, but I'm going back to school tomorrow, and I should go back and pack my things."

Shi Zheng remained silent. To be honest, he was still somewhat disgusted. His son, whom he had raised for so long, had been taken away by another man.

After watching Jiang Zhiyi leave, Shi Qi suddenly said, "She went back and confessed to her mother."

"What?!" He Shuyao's eyes widened in shock, then she playfully slapped Shi Zheng: "It's all your fault! If you hadn't been so rude, why would that child have taken this risk? What will your son do if the mother doesn't agree?"

The political situation seemed a bit guilty: "How can you blame me for this?"...

The next morning, when Shi arrived at the classroom, Jiang Zhiyi was already sitting upright in his seat.

She sat down and looked at him, asking what was wrong.

Jiang Zhiyi smiled easily and said, "Don't worry, my mom agreed."

--last night--

Lin Jingwen had just gotten home from get off work when she saw her son sitting on the sofa in the living room: "You last night..."

Before she could finish her question, Jiang Zhiyi interrupted her: "Mom, I want to tell you something."

Lin Jingwen hesitated for a moment before saying, "Go ahead." She subconsciously felt that it probably wasn't anything good.

Sure enough, Jiang Zhiyi said, "My boyfriend celebrated his birthday last night..."

Lin Jingwen nodded knowingly. It wasn't hard to guess, since Jiang Zhiyi had never been close enough with his classmates to go out and celebrate someone's birthday in the middle of the night.

But what Jiang Zhiyi said next completely stunned her.

"My partner is Shi Qi."
