dogma

This question is difficult to answer, Rao Xinghai thought for a while. "It's not time for hard work yet," he said, "...I can take it."

"You don't have to hint yourself like this all the time." Fang Xiaoman signed and stamped the form, "No one thought about making a student like you bear any responsibilities. If you feel that you can't do it anymore, you can tell Ou Yinye immediately. quit."

Strangely, except for Ou Yinye and the special management committee, everyone around him who knew about this matter was telling him: You have a way out.

Fang Xiaoman handed him a copy of the signed notice.

"Rao Xinghai, don't be too stubborn, you have a choice. When you come back, you are still a student of New Hope."

Rao Xinghai had never communicated with this unsmiling teacher, he didn't expect Fang Xiaoman to warn him like this.After receiving the document, he promised: "I know."

This is something he already knew.He has a choice, not the only way to go.As long as he knows that there is still a way out, he will not lose his way.

There is a place in the world that is open to him, a home waiting for him, someone who loves him, and no one can hurt him.He is not afraid to go anywhere.

Before leaving, Fang Xiaoman held out his hand to him.They shook each other seriously and forcefully with the etiquette of adults.

Rao Xinghai dragged his suitcase slowly through the school.Everyone seemed carefree, leaving him behind one by one.

The chief of the security department checked his ID and pass documents at the school gate, and finally grabbed his shoulders: "When you first came to the security department, you fought with others for the sake of your classmates. I remember you, Rao Xinghai, Your mental body is a golden python, I saw it on surveillance. You did something wrong, do you know? You can leave school, you can quit school, but you can't hurt your teacher!"

Why do these people seem to have changed today?Rao Xinghai uttered the last words he left in New Hope with half a bit of bewilderment: "I'm sorry."

He walked towards the subway station, hesitated for a moment at the station gate, and then looked back at New Hope.

I had contacted Guan Li yesterday, and there should still be someone waiting for him today, and he should stay in a more conspicuous place.Ou Yinye told him that he didn't have to worry about Nie Cai not being able to find him. After he was expelled, the information would immediately appear on the school's public channels.The Yuanxing Society has developed for so long, it is very easy to find someone in a certain area, as long as Rao Xinghai still stays in public.

He took one last look at New Hope Academy, and took the steps into the subway station.

After buying a bottle of water in the convenience store, Rao Xinghai sat on the cold seat in a daze.People come and go on the platform, no one is as dazed as he is, everyone has a purpose.

He had nowhere to go but waited for Nie Cai to come and find him.

He drank most of a bottle of water, and someone sat beside him.

Rao Xinghai stepped aside, and then he heard the people around him smile and ask, "Do you want to rent a house?"

Rao Xinghai's heart tightened.His always reticent character helped a lot, hesitation and silence were directly interpreted as arrogance, and the man said again: "I know you."

Rao Xinghai turned his head and saw Nie Cai sitting beside him.

He had only seen Nie Cai's photos and lecture videos in the materials provided by Ou Yinye and the special management committee.It has been recorded many years ago, and Nie Cai is not much different from that time, except that he has gray hair at the temples, and he is a little thinner.He didn't look at Rao Xinghai, but stared at the subway that was slowly starting in front of him.

"..." Rao Xinghai struggled to swallow the dryness in his throat, "Who are you?"

"Hi, I'm Nie Cai." Nie Cai finally turned to look at him and smiled, "You don't know me?"

Rao Xinghai withdrew his gaze.

Ou Yinye had taught him not to try desperately to pretend to be someone who was inconsistent with him.He only needs to keep the part that must be hidden deep, and the rest of the time will be as usual.Rao Xinghai never talked much, especially to strangers, or a stranger who he hated.Facing Nie Cai, he just needs to think and react like a person meeting Nie Cai for the first time.

So he didn't make a sound, crushed the water bottle and threw it into the trash can beside him, dragged his suitcase to get up, and looked at the subway map.

Nie Cai came to him, not caring about his indifference.

"I hugged you when you were born." Nie Cai said, "You were really small and light at that time, and it seemed that you might not survive."

Rao Xinghai closed his eyes, turned his head and gritted his teeth, and said, "Are you crazy?"

Nie Cai was still smiling, and Rao Xinghai turned around and walked in the opposite direction, continuing to check the subway lines.

"I know your mother." Nie Cai said, "I know everything about her."

This topic finally aroused Rao Xinghai's interest, he turned his head suddenly, vigilant and uneasy: "...Who the hell are you?"

"Your benefactor." Nie Cai said, "Without me, you would not have appeared in this world."

"Where's Nie Cai?" Liu Yushan walked to the living room and asked.

There was only Guan Li in the house, and she didn't look well, lying on the sofa and clutching her stomach.

"I went to find Rao Xinghai." Guan Li said, "Xiao Luo and Kang Song saw the people from New Hope discussing the matter of Rao Xinghai's dismissal early in the morning, so they went out together."

"What about you?" Liu Yushan sat down beside her, touched her forehead, "Take painkillers."

Guan Li shook her head, she was used to enduring it. "...Women are really troublesome, aren't they?" She smiled weakly, "Sometimes I think Teacher Nie is right."

Liu Yushan rubbed her hair and said in a low voice, "No."

He saw that Guan Li's eyes were red.She covered her eyes, and after a while she choked up and said, "...I'm very sad, I know what they are going to do."

"doing what?"

"Ms. Nie wants to bring Rao Xinghai here."

"So?" Liu Yushan asked gently, "You don't want Rao Xinghai to come here?"

Guan Li was silent for a moment. "...Actually, when I found out that Teacher Nie decided to give up Adam, I was very sad. I may not see him in the future. But I am happy for him..."

Liu Yushan understood, he hugged Guan Li: "You think Rao Xinghai will become the next Adam? Nie Cai will torture him and control him, right?"

"...I'm too fragile, I'm always like this at this moment..." Guan Li whispered.

Liu Yushan stroked her long hair: "I like fragile people."

He sent Guan Li back to the room and did not leave until she fell asleep.Less than 10 minutes after returning to his room, he heard the door knock.

Nie Cai opened the door of the house, and gestured to Rao Xinghai who was outside the door to invite him in.Rao Xinghai and the suitcase were outside the door, he hesitated.

"I won't rent it anymore." He said suddenly, turned around and walked up the stairs.

But a huge black bear stood behind him, blocking his way.Rao Xinghai paused for a moment, then sneered: "Spiritual body? I have it too."

"Let's talk about it." Nie Cai said with a smile, "Yes, I know you have it too. Your golden python can double, much stronger than my black bear. So what are you afraid of?"

The black bear pushed Rao Xinghai, and he immediately shouted: "Don't touch me!"

"You don't want to know about your mother?" Nie Cai smiled slightly. "Her name is Su Xiaoqin. She is from Guizhou. She has a round face and is quite a cute little girl. She can sing folk songs, which is very nice."

Rao Xinghai finally stepped through the door.

The door closed with a bang.Liu Yushan came out of his room, leaned against the door frame, and looked Rao Xinghai up and down.

Rao Xinghai also stared at him.Although there was still a look of vigilance on his face, there was already a storm in his heart: this middle-aged man, who had never seen him before, fit the appearance described by Adam.

Slender face, glasses, bookish, gentle temperament.He finally met Liu Yushan who had never appeared in surveillance.

Nie Cai: "What are you looking at?"

Rao Xinghai immediately pointed to Liu Yushan: "Who is this?"

He still looked calm and refused to move an inch from the door: "Are you abducting people?"

Nie Cai smiled coldly.The gentle expression on his face just now has completely disappeared, like a layer of water dried by the scorching sun. "I have something to ask him, together?"

Liu Yushan shook his head: "I won't participate."

Nie Cai was taken aback: "Why?"

Liu Yushan: "It will scare our guests."

Nie Cai's face darkened, but soon he smiled again: "You are so gentle."

Liu Yushan smiled at Rao Xinghai: "Please sit down."

Rao Xinghai sat down carefully.It's the same as what Adam said: Liu Yushan is a gentle person, not aggressive, and in his relationship with Nie Cai, Nie Cai occupies the top position.

A more intense confusion lingered in his heart: Why can competitors who had a bad relationship in the training class get along like this now?What happened in the years that Adam didn't know?

Hei Xiong walked back and forth in the living room, and every time he got close to Liu Yushan, he immediately turned his head and left.The spiritual body's disgust towards Liu Yushan was very obvious, Rao Xinghai couldn't help but glance at Nie Cai.

Unexpectedly, Nie Cai was also staring at him.

"Why did you come here?"

Rao Xinghai was stunned: "...Didn't you bring me here? You said you knew about my mother... about that woman."

"You grew up in an orphanage?" Nie Cai seemed to be recalling, "She doesn't want you, why do you still want to know about her?"

Rao Xinghai: "If you refuse to speak, I will leave."

Nie Cai was startled, then slapped his knee and laughed.

"Your personality is so funny!" He laughed, "Is this how you usually talk to others?"

Rao Xinghai remained silent.It was true that Liu Yushan did not participate, but he was listening from the sidelines, gazing at Rao Xinghai with strange eyes with a smile on his face.

"I'm of course your mother's matter. I have a deep relationship with her." Nie Cai stopped laughing, "But before I tell you, I have a few questions that I need you to answer."

Rao Xinghai's face changed again and again: "What?"

Nie Cai crossed his legs, leaned back on the sofa, and stared at Rao Xinghai beside him.

"First question," he whispered, "why did you hit your dean?"

"I do not like him."

"No." Nie Cai immediately denied, "I don't like people lying to me, kid. You're not right. I want to hear the truth."

"...he criticized me."

Nie Cai smiled: "There are only three things. Tell the truth."

Silence seemed to be something substantial, pressing on Rao Xinghai's shoulders.

"...He said, if he didn't look at me pitifully, he wouldn't recruit me." Rao Xinghai twisted his fingers, he felt another Rao Xinghai split out of his body, it was a bullied and denied Rao Xinghai , always angry, never reconciled, always hating—a Rao Xinghai who met Nie Cai's expectations, "It is impossible for a person like me to live a decent life."

Nie Cai stared at him, the corners of his lips twitched slightly, as if he had landed on the ground, he uttered his response softly: "He is right."

Rao Xinghai looked up and saw Nie Cai's face was full of strange expressions.

As if afraid that Rao Xinghai could not hear clearly, he repeated: "He is right, people like you are just rubbish."
