Chapter 9: The Little Prince

I was taken all the way to the grove behind the school by those girls, like a prisoner.They were not friendly, and I could vaguely detect anger in them.

"What's the matter?" I asked after being pushed and pushed by them to stand still.

"You smelly and shameless gay, I warn you, stay away from the meeting." The girl who was half a head taller than me had no extra nonsense, and the one who grabbed my hair and covered my head and face just scolded me.

"I'm not gay." I looked back at her with calm eyes. "Nor is Gu Youning."

"Who allowed you to call her by her name directly?" She slapped her backhand, which caught me off guard.My cheeks were hot, and my nose was filled with the smell of blood. I thought I might have a nosebleed. "Before, I saw you suffering from illness alone. I didn't care about going out to seduce men in the middle of the night. I didn't expect you to pester the president. I can bear you!"

I still looked at her, silent.

"What are you looking at! How dare you stare at me?" Her tone rose several notches, and she raised her hand to hit me again, but I caught her.She struggled twice and couldn't get away, so she sneered and said, "You don't cry when you see the coffin? Xiaoyang, show her the photo."

I saw the tall woman winking at the person around her, and the person understood and showed me her mobile phone.

I saw Gu Youning hugging me and kissing my cheek under the dim streetlight.When I looked at that photo, I felt an inexplicable pain in my heart.I suddenly found that my world was too small to see the eyes in the dark.And my important person just appeared in other people's mobile phones ironically, and was pointed at by others.

The beauty in my heart seems to be splashed with a layer of dirty water at this moment, making me unable to breathe.

"You still don't admit it?" She looked at me condescendingly. "This time it's just a warning. If someone else takes pictures next time and ruins the president's reputation, it won't be that simple."

As she said this, she let go of the hand that was holding my hair. I felt like I had no strength in my whole body, and I sat down on the grass.They whispered a few words around me, and left with disdain.

I sat in the grass until it was dark, and finally felt that I could recover a bit. I raised my hand and wiped my nose, and saw blood on the back of my hand.I stood up unsteadily, my legs felt numb.I have to find a place to wash my face, so I don’t want to scare others for a while, I thought so, walked out of the bushes, and successfully scared a passerby.

"Same... classmate, are you okay?" The man was startled, and his voice trembled a little.

"It's okay." I replied, and then looked around in confusion. "Where is the bathroom? I want to wash my face..."

"Let me take you there..." Maybe my mental state was too vague, the man seemed a little worried, so I nodded and followed him.

I followed Passerby A around to the main road before I could tell the direction of the teaching building. At this moment, the lights on both sides of the campus road were lit up, and there were many people.I chose the direction of the gymnasium without hesitation, because I didn't want to be seen by people I knew.Sure enough, there was no one in the gymnasium. I looked in the mirror and was shocked.

In the mirror, half of his face was swollen, his mouth and hands were covered with blood, people who didn't know thought something was wrong.I quickly washed it with clean water several times, and came out of the bathroom when there was no blood stains, and then I saw passerby A still standing there.

"Are you still there?"

"I've been here all the time." Passerby A smiled.

"Thank you." I replied.

"You're welcome."

Passerby A and I were speechless all the way, and as soon as we left the gate of the gymnasium, we saw Gu Youning standing at the gate.She was panting heavily and looked as if she had come running.

"What's wrong with your face?" She saw my face swollen at the first sight.

I covered my face, I was not very good at lying, and I couldn't tell why for a while, my mind went blank.

"Who is he?" This was the second sentence Gu Youning asked me.

"I just saw that her face was covered with blood... I was a little uneasy to follow. Well, I happen to have something to do, so I have to go first." Passerby A was a little nervous for some reason, and ran away after hastily explaining. up.

I was in a daze the whole time, everything happened so fast that I couldn't react.

"Ziyan..." Gu Youning approached me with distressed eyes.She lifted my face to look at me, and asked softly, "What's the matter, baby?"

I was startled by her name, and quickly stepped back a few steps, my heart pounding.

Gu Youning sighed and said, "We'll talk about it when we go home."

On the way home, Gu Youning walked in front and I walked behind, neither of them spoke.When I entered the unit door, Gu Youning put her bag in my hand: "Ziyan, what fruit do you want to eat, I'll go buy some."

I hugged her bag and shook my head. She looked at me and tried to say something but finally held back: "Then go upstairs and wait for me."

I hummed and left without looking back.

Gu Youning watched Fang Ziyan walk into the apartment building, took out his mobile phone and called Xia An.When Xia An answered the phone, there was still the sound of a car horn, and it seemed that he was outside.

"Youning, what's the matter?"

"Fang Ziyan is acting weird today, what's wrong with her?" Gu Youning asked with a hint of anxiety in her tone.Just now I couldn't hold back my seizures in front of Fang Ziyan, and now I can't help it anymore.

"I said beauty, how do I know what's wrong with her? I'm not her."

"Then can you find out for me?" Gu Youning continued to ask. "I had a meeting today, and when I came out, I couldn't get through to her. When I found her, her face was swollen. She came out of the gym with a strange man, and she wouldn't let me touch her or talk to me. Along the way They were all dumbfounded, not knowing what they were thinking."

"Calm down." Xia An obviously felt that something was wrong with Gu Youning, and there was an inexplicable emotion in her words, which was not at all like her usual: "You also know that I prefer to hang out with school girls, I will call you later .You go back first, okay?"

Gu Youning also knew that he had talked too much, so he stood there and calmed down for a while, and replied: "Yes."

I went back to the house and washed up in a hurry before lying on the bed. I was afraid that Gu Youning would come back and ask me, I had such a bad day today, I tossed and turned on the bed, and finally called Ziqing.

"Ziyan." Ziqing's call was quickly connected, and I was relieved after hearing her voice.

"Ziqing, what are you doing?" I covered my head under the quilt and asked her.

"I'm reading." Ziqing replied.

"It's so late, you're still reading, it's hard work."

"Well, there will be an exam in two days." Ziqing replied.

"Then read carefully, I have nothing to do, I'll hang up first." As soon as I heard that Ziqing was reading, I didn't want to disturb her, for fear of delaying her study.

"I've been watching it for a long time, and I need to change my mind." Ziqing seemed to have stretched himself, and was lying under the quilt, and asked me, "What are you doing?"

"I'll call you while lying in bed."

"What did you do today?" Ziqing asked.

"I went to class today, and after class, I had dinner with my friends, wandered outside, and just got home." I said, feeling my eyes were wet, and my mouth was extremely bitter.

"what did you eat."

I am stunned.

"Where to go shopping? Who is there?" Ziqing continued to ask.

My mind went blank and I stopped spinning at the time.

"Idiot, if you don't know how to lie, be honest." Ziqing's voice came from the other end of the phone: "When I was a child, I got into the quilt and cried when I was bullied. Do you think I don't know?"

"You know you still expose me, why are you so bad!" I pursed my lips and cried out a snot bubble.

"I've been bad since I was a child." Ziqing smiled, and didn't ask me why I was bullied, knowing that I would continue to cry. I heard that she seemed to stand up, and then rummaged for a while: "Ziyan , let me tell you a story, don’t you like listening to stories the most?”

"You have the storybook?" I asked.

"Yeah." Ziqing replied.

"Little prince?"

"Ah."

"Isn't that the birthday present I bought for you?" I recalled that I bought it for her with the pocket money I had saved for a long time when she was a child.

"Are you listening?" Ziqing asked in a cold voice.

I obediently huddled under the quilt: "Listen..."

"A long time ago..." Ziqing's voice came from the other end of the phone, soft and light, as if telling a story to a child.

"That book doesn't seem to start like this..."

"To shut up."

She read slowly, and I held the phone to listen, feeling peaceful in my heart, and was about to fall asleep.

Everyone has their own star, but the meaning of it varies from person to person.

To the traveler, the stars are guides;

To others they are but little glittering things in the sky;

To scholars, the stars are a puzzle to be solved;

To my businessman, they are wealth.

The stars themselves, however, are silent.

You—and only you—know what these stars mean differently...

I will live on one of the stars and smile on a certain star. Whenever you look up at the starry sky at night, it will be like seeing all the stars smiling...
