Chapter 14 The So-Called Brother 1

In the next month, in addition to worrying about An Shuyao helping her practice Tai Chi among her classmates, Tom Lingxue also started interviews one after another in the various clubs they participated in. Tomb Lingxue didn't join any clubs. On the one hand, it was because she was a homebody and too lazy to participate in club activities. On the other hand, it was because the teaching assistant who had been with them for a month told them that clubs like the student union were very poor. It's best for them not to go. Some people say that these clubs are for senior seniors to choose girlfriends. Lingxue doesn't know if they are real or fake, but she wonders how deep a group of college students who have not yet entered the society can go?

However, after experiencing An Shuyao being ostracized by her classmates, she thought that maybe it was because they were not deeply involved in the world that they did not realize how cruel what they were doing was. Everyone went with the flow, everyone catered to everyone. It is specious, those who agree do not dare to speak out, and those who oppose do not dare to speak out to stop it. Tomb Lingxue felt very angry . She was angry with herself because she was also one of those people.

Sometimes when she hears those who say bad things about An Shuyao in twos and threes , she really wants to rush up and say, "Why don't you say it in front of her? What's the point of whispering behind her back?!" But often, she doesn't have time to think about what those people say. Change the topic, such as "A certain male star was exposed to cheating", "A certain female star was cheated on before" and so on.

Tom Lingxue to be so angry during this period. It obviously didn't happen to her, but she saw it and she knew the person involved, so she couldn't change the channel like she usually does when she sees unacceptable news. Just pretend that she doesn't know, she is doing well anyway. I don’t know if this should be considered a matter of urgency or anger caused by disappointment. But if any outsiders knew that she had almost lost control of her emotions during this period because of someone she had only known for a few hours, they would definitely accuse her of being mentally ill.

Fortunately, Tomb Lingchen was not an outsider, and he didn't think that Tomb Lingxue was mentally ill.

"If you think you can afford to do it, then do it."

Tomb Lingxue felt so incomprehensible about this matter. She asked her elder brother and her parents, and her parents all advised her not to get involved. She still had a few words on her mind. As soon as the news about Tomb Lingchen came over, she was like an eggplant beaten by frost. Just as wilted.

Everyone else in the dormitory went to club activities that day. Tomb Lingxue sat on her bed. After seeing this text message, for a moment her heart burned with impulse, but the next second she saw the fruit bowl on her roommate's table. , just now she was carrying food for others, and before going out, they asked if they wanted to bring yogurt for her.

Then Tomb Lingxue wilted. She knew that everyone in the class was actually like her roommates. They were not bad people, they just said a few words occasionally, and they themselves forgot about it after they said it. But everyone occasionally said a few words, but for An Shuyao, it meant that someone was always ostracizing her, and the whole class was ostracizing her every day. But Tomb Lingxue couldn't do it. She couldn't name anyone who was responsible for this, and she couldn't stand on the podium and accuse the entire class. Not to mention the boys, those girls who said things and forgot about them would think she was mentally ill. , now even Tomb Lingxue feels that she is making a fuss out of a molehill.

After not receiving a reply for a long time, Tomb Lingchen sent "?" over. He knew that his sister could sometimes get into trouble, so he didn't dare to be careless.

"I'm scared ," Mu Lingxue replied while curled up on the bed. She felt like crying. "I know this will definitely help, but I don't have the courage."

Mu Lingchen 's fingers trembled as if they had received an electric shock.

——I know she needs help, and I know it will be helpful for me to help her, but I don’t dare.

Mu Lingchen pursed his lips, his back muscles tensed. He wrote and deleted , finally put down his phone and looked out the window. Although the windows of the dormitory were open, there was no wind , so it was a bit stuffy.

The fat man walked by him and waved his hand in front of his eyes, "What's wrong? You look like you've been heartbroken."

Mu Lingchen took a breath and said, "It's okay. My eyes hurt from looking at it for so long."

"Oh," the fat man yawned and went back to his table to play games.

Then Tomb Lingxue received a text message from her brother:

"It's good that you have this intention, but to be honest, it's really useless."

"The fact that she was ostracized shows that she is also unpopular and has bad luck. She just said that others have gone too far."

"But as long as there is something really wrong with her, they will always find fault."

"It's hard to tell if you can't go too far."

Tomb Lingxue looked at these text messages and seemed to be more open-minded and more pessimistic. She sniffed and replied:

"I know, I won't hurt myself."

Tomb Lingchen , "Yeah. [touch head]"

Tomb Lingxue stayed in bed for a while, and it wasn't until they came back that she cheered up and asked if the club was fun.

"What? It's just like that. We haven't seen many handsome people in this class."

"Hey, yogurt, the yellow peach flavor you want."

"The math homework is due tomorrow. Have you written it all?"

" Fuck, hurry up and lend me a copy."

It started to get cold after a few rains in October, but the winter here is just a matter of blocking the wind , unlike Tomi Lingchen and his family, where the winter is bone-chillingly cold.

In November, the whole school prepared for a performance for nearly a month, and finally the leaders came. That day, Tomb Lingchen and the others wore borrowed military uniforms and played goose-step, and the effect was pretty good. But for Tomb Lingxue, it just meant that she had to go to evening self-study with her classmates.

A few days later, Fei Chen contacted them to tell them about his birthday. November 19th this year happened to be a Saturday. Fei Chen found a resort on the edge of Yunze Lake and planned to invite everyone to stay for two days. We will set off at 6pm on Friday the 18th, and a car will be sent to pick us up.

So a group of people were left speechless by his big battle . They didn't know that this was the normal standard for birthdays in their family. A few people were a little worried about whether the gifts they prepared were enough to repay the favor, but in fact, college students don't care so much about worldly feelings. Anyway , Bought everything.

Tomb Lingxue hasn't been very motivated to do things recently . They have classes in the fourth period on Friday, and the class ends at 5:45. It seems that she can't come back in time to get her things. Tomb Lingxue said she didn't want to go because it was her birthday. It's not good to be rude and make everyone unhappy.

But before she could reply, she was stopped by her roommate in various ways:

"So many people want to go but they can't go. Why don't you go?!" Huang Ziyi made a "screaming" gesture.

"That resort is very high-end. It's good to go and have fun. You haven't been energetic lately." Sun Xiaoqing thought she didn't go because she was staying at home. "Your brother is here anyway. I think you are getting rusty from home."

"If you want to go, just take your things with you and we will bring the books back for you," Tian Tian said.

"Yeah, that's good."

"It's okay to skip the last section. Anyway, it's Si Xiu. If you want to name someone, I'll call it for you."

"Go and play, you can live broadcast with us. I'm so jealous of those little bitches ."

After being told by them, Tomb Lingxue felt that it was time to go and have some fun. Besides, An Shuyao was also going this time. If Tomb Lingxue didn't go, she would be the only girl (probably).

So Tom Lingxue left with An Shuyao after class that day. Some people in the class also knew that Feichen had invited them for his birthday. Tom Lingxue could feel that someone was looking at them when they were together, but she didn't care.

Tomb Lingchen and the others didn't have any classes this afternoon. They watched a few episodes of American TV series in the dormitory and it was almost time before setting off with Cheng Zijin with gifts in hand.

Feichen and the others had classes in the third period in the afternoon, and they only had this class that day. Feichen received many gifts and confessions, and always replied with "Thank you" or "I'm sorry", and then his roommate helped him move the gifts. Go back to the dormitory.

When they finally gathered at the gate of the dormitory area in the south of the city, they saw three Mercedes-Benz parked there. Tom Lingxue didn't know much about cars, but she seemed to know that the car must be a more expensive one. What was even more exaggerated was that there were three Dai Bai cars. The drivers of Gloves each stood in front of the car waiting for them. People coming and going stopped to take photos, and even Tomb Lingxue did not dare to step forward. But An Shuyao was very calm and pulled her over.

Tomb Lingchen and Cheng Zijin were also shocked when they arrived, and joined them with expressions of "really knowing how to play".

In the end, Fei Chen invited his roommates, Tom Lingchen , Cheng Zijin, Tom Lingxue , and An Shuyao , a total of eight people and three cars. This made the ride very comfortable. I have to say that the service at this resort is good.

Tom Lingxue wanted to accompany An Shuyao, but she didn't sit in the passenger seat this time. There were two girls in the car. When they got in the car, Tomb Lingxue asked the driver to drive more slowly because she was getting carsick. The driver smiled and said, "Don't worry." , and she felt that her speech was too unsociable. To be honest, she regretted coming now and felt a little at a loss.

In the other two cars, Fei Chen and Huang Ziyi both sat in the passenger seat. Fei Chen took the first lead car because he was the initiator of the trip. Behind him were Tom Lingchen and Cheng Zijin , and his three roommates were all In another car, Huang Ziyi felt too stressed sitting with Fang Shaotian, so he simply hid in the passenger seat.

"Please fasten your seat belt."

The three cars set off smoothly, leaving behind three lines of exhaust gas and countless admiring looks from people.

After the train started, Tomb Lingxue felt that the pressure was much less, and An Shuyao comforted her with a few words of "take it as it comes". From An Shuyao , Lingxue learned that they were going to a five-star resort with a large area surrounding the lake for horse riding, boating, fishing and even golf. Because it was Fei Chen 's family who invested in this resort, so This time the boss knew that Fei Chen was celebrating his birthday and specially came here to ask him to take his classmates to the resort. After all, the resort has just opened, and subsequent equipment and venue maintenance and publicity will still cost a lot of money. It is obvious that this resort will not be able to recover funds in the short term. .

An Shuya said that probably the reason why Fei Chen agreed to come over this time was because his family asked him to come out to exercise. It would be up to him to judge whether the Fei family would continue to add funds.

Tomb Lingxue heard what she said, she felt that she was not from the same world as herself. People in the group asked her when she could arrive. When she arrived, she took photos of the resort for them. Huang Ziyi wanted to create a theme post and so on. She felt that she was just going to their world for a two-day trip, but she calmed down.

At this moment, none of their gifts have been sent out. They are all carried in similar gift bags. It seems that everyone has chosen small and delicate things by chance. Tomb Lingxue is a little worried about whether Fei Chen will like what she has chosen. Because the brother and sister only needed to give one copy, they let Tomb Lingchen take the music box. They couldn't show it to An Shuyao at the moment , and they couldn't find it even after looking through the photos on their phone .

An Shuyao told her not to worry, as Feichen 's tutor would not show it whether he liked it or not, and compared with the watch she gave her, their music box was already very thoughtful.

Tomb Lingxue didn't understand why she said that. An Shuyao explained that such gifts are just like expensive pens and tie clips. They are received, packaged and then given to others. The ones used by his family are all custom-made. .

Tomb Lingxue saw that she was talking so eloquently and looked like she was used to it, and said that she felt that you were the same as Fei Chen , why did you still live in the dormitory and suffer the anger?

An Shuyao was already used to Tomb Lingxue being so frank. In fact, it was very relaxing to see such a frank person after so many twists and turns, so she rolled her eyes rudely and said that my family was poor before and now. It was completely incomparable to his family, and she didn't know she had become such a pretentious person unless she had interacted with ordinary people.

Tom Lingxue saw that she didn't mind the people in the dormitory of the class anymore, and felt a big stone fell in her heart. She said easily, "Look how good your makeup is. I can just do my eyebrows so casually, or should I ask my roommate to help me do it ."

As a result, An Shuyao shrugged and said that she paid money to learn it, so just practice more and I'll help you put on makeup.

Because there was no one in the front seat of their car, they put down the soundproof panel, so they were not afraid of the driver hearing them talking like this. Several other cars were very quiet. For example, the three people in Fei Chen 's car were all slutty and no one spoke. The quiet driver's hair stood on end, but the two people behind him didn't feel it at all and didn't seem to have any intention. Open your mouth.

Fei Chen could see them in the rearview mirror and frowned slightly.

This resort is quite remote by the lake, but the original location of their school is also remote, and it can be reached in less than two hours. The car drove through a gate and drove all the way to the entrance of the hotel where we were staying. The boss came to greet them in person, politely asked them to choose their own room, and said that the chef was on standby to serve dinner immediately.

Several people were so hungry that it was almost eight o'clock. Of course, dinner started, so they sent their things to their rooms and went to sit on the fourth floor. The entire floor of the restaurant was completely opened, and there was only one table of them at the moment. The table was placed under the huge crystal chandelier in the center of the hall, and the waiters served the dishes elegantly. Several people looked at their clothes and felt that their clothes were not suitable for this place, and they were a little restrained. The boss was accompanying them to introduce various dishes to them. However, there were many people present who were calm. For example, Fei Chen , An Shuyao, was used to it, and her dining movements were very elegant at the moment. Tomb Lingchen and Cheng Zijin did it because of their personalities, and Tomb Lingxue did it after knowing that this world did not belong to her at all. It's completely broken. Anyway, she just needs to eat well and don't be too rude. She can't learn the manners of Feichen and others .

Fei Chen at the dining table . His roommate had already given them to him earlier, so it was just the same as theirs. The meal was considered a feast for both the host and the guest, but An Shuyao felt that Fei Chen was a little unhappy. She didn't know. Are you not satisfied here?

When he was about to finish eating, Tomb Lingchen went to the bathroom, and then Feichen tried his mouth with a napkin and went too.

rude to look around at the dinner table .

When Tom Lingchen came out of the cubicle, he saw Fei Chen standing by the sink, probably waiting for him.

"What?" He went over and washed his hands.

"With all due respect, you seem to be very dissatisfied with me." Fei Chen's handsome, cold and arrogant face showed no expression, but he actually couldn't figure it out. Today he noticed that Tom Lingxue and An Shuyao seemed to be in a bad mood, but that didn't matter to him. thing. It's not surprising that Cheng Zijin 's character has never been in a good mood. But I don't know why Tomb Lingchen 's dissatisfaction is directed at him.

Fei Chen has studied negotiation psychology. Although the object and scenario are wrong, it is more than enough to use on a few college students. Moreover , not only today, Tomb Lingchen seemed to be in a bad mood when they practiced the square formation together before. There must be a reason for this, and Fei Chen wants to know why he has been dissatisfied with himself for so long.

Tomu Lingchen still had the same indifferent expression. He lowered his eyes slightly and washed his hands, "Do you know that your cousin has been bullied by people in the class?"

"Because of me?" Fei Chen's eyes didn't change.

"Part of it." Tomb Lingchen washed his hands and stood up. He paused and wiped his hands with some paper . His voice matched the other people's and sounded a little lonely , "My sister is so anxious and angry about this matter. , and you have absolutely no idea.”

Tomb Lingchen turned around and looked at him, and Fei Chen realized that he was actually not as cold as he sounded. There was no expression on his face, but his eyes and the surrounding subtle muscles were unabashedly expressing his hidden anger and contempt for him . "I don't know what your temper is, but if it were my sister..." He slightly twitched the corner of his lips, unabashedly harsh.

Then he walked past Fei Chen with a slight expression on his face.
