Li Fan changed into his school uniform. This was the slimmest uniform in school, but it was still very loose on Li Fan. He used to be very weak. Otherwise, he would not have been bullied in school.
Li Fan sat in front of the folding table in the living room. He looked at the plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, millet porridge, and steamed buns. He did not know why, but his eyes suddenly became moist.
At this moment, his mother had not been moved by Murong's family's sugar-coated bullets. Although she was very strict with herself, she would wake up early and return late every day. She would cook, wash, and do housework for him.
It had been a long time since he had such a life. Li Fan now had a lot of responsibilities, but he could not be filial by his parents' side. This made Li Fan feel a little guilty. At this moment, looking at his busy mother, Li Fan really wanted to say thank you, but he could not say it.
Chinese people were actually like this. When chasing a girl, they could shout 'I love you' over and over again, even if the other party did not have feelings for you. However, in front of his true love, he could not say these mushy words.
"What are you looking at? Did you sleep too much?"
His mother walked over and reprimanded Li Fan, "Hurry up and eat. After eating, go to school! Look at that Lin girl. Her mother and I are selling pancakes at a stall. That girl does not have to worry about us. Her grades are good, and she is the top student in her grade! When can you let me be at ease for once? Let's not talk about other things. Can you pass your math? "
"Mom, I know I haven't done well. I will try my best in the future."
Li Fan's words made his mother stunned for a moment. This kid usually liked to talk back. He had a strong rebellious mentality. What was wrong with him today? Did the sun rise from the west? Why was he so polite to her?
His mother subconsciously reached out and touched her son's forehead.
It's not hot?
"Mom, I'm full. I'm going to school."
Li Fan picked up his bag and set off on the road to school.
He should still be in Second High … Hmm, a Year One student?
Based on what his mother said just now, she seemed to know Lin Yueh-hsin's mother? He had never paid attention to this matter in the past. Seemed like his ill-fated relationship with that lass Lin had long begun.
Li Fan had only taken two steps when a little girl wearing the same school uniform as him, with a ponytail swaying, followed him.
"Little Li, wait a minute!"
"Fang … Fang Xiaoxue?"
When Li Fan saw this little girl, his body suddenly trembled.
A memory that had been hidden in the depths of his heart for a long time was torn open just like that, once again appearing in front of Li Fan.
Fang Xiaoxue was Li Fan's neighbor. She was one year younger than him. She was not very beautiful. She was rather delicate and had a very cheerful personality. She had known Li Fan since he was a child. The relationship between the two families was also quite good. In the past, when they ate and drank together, their families had even decided to let the children of the two families get married in the future!
At that time, Li Fan and Xiao Xue were still young and did not pay much attention to this matter. However, Xiao Xue was very close to Li Fan. She always followed behind Li Fan and played with him.
As he grew older, Li Fan became thinner and weaker, while Xiao Xue became more and more lively. When they were young, Li Fan took care of Xiao Xue. Now, it was Xiao Xue taking care of Li Fan. Xiao Xue's wish since she was young was to become a police officer. Therefore, during the holidays, she followed her mother to work at a stall and used the money she earned to learn some ladies' wrestling and grappling techniques.
She ran over and hugged Li Fan's shoulder.
"Little Li, why did you go out so early today?"
Xiao Xue leaned on Li Fan's body. Her fragrance floated into Li Fan's nose.
"I went to your house to look for you. I didn't expect you to run away first! What's wrong, hiding from me? "
"How could that be …"
Li Fan's nose turned sour again. Almost subconsciously, he gently stroked Xiao Xue's cheek. Xiao Xue's skin was still white and smooth. It felt good to the touch. But for Li Fan, this was not the point. The point was, she was still alive.
"You, what are you doing!"
Xiao Xue's face suddenly turned red. She was flustered and pushed Li Fan away. But Li Fan was too thin and weak at this time. He was immediately pushed by Xiao Xue and fell on his butt.
"Aiya, are you okay?"
Xiao Xue was shocked. She quickly reached out and pulled Li Fan up again. She even patted the dust off his body.
"Who, who asked you to suddenly touch my face …"
Fang Xiaoxue pretended to be fierce. She stared at Li Fan, "How dare you! Did you watch too many movies! "
"Sorry … I was a bit rude …"
Just now, Li Fan couldn't help himself, so he did that.
Who was Fang Xiaoxue … She was a girl who had accompanied him for the past 18 years. He always had this girl's shadow by his side. From a delicate girl next door, she became a natural and unrestrained girl.
"You … Why are you so weird today …"
Fang Xiaoxue looked at Li Fan. Her face was still a little red.
"Anyway … If you touch me again, I'll beat you up!"
This "beat you up" didn't seem to be threatening.
"Xiao Xue …"
"What?"
"Nothing … Let's go to school together."
Li Fan suddenly remembered this day. It was on this day that he made the most regretful mistake in his life.
The two of them walked towards the school. At this time, a person suddenly rushed out and bumped into Li Fan. Li Fan staggered and was supported by Fang Xiaoxue.
"Are you crazy! Don't you have eyes? "
Fang Xiaoxue had a bad temper. She immediately scolded the man who ran over.
"Catch the thief!"
A woman's cry came from behind, "He stole the money for my child's doctor! I beg you, help me catch him! "
The woman cried miserably, but no one moved. The passersby were all cold.
However, Fang Xiaoxue didn't hesitate and chased after the thief!
Li Fan frowned and grabbed Fang Xiaoxue's hand.
"What are you doing?"
"Don't go."
"You! You've disappointed me! "
Fang Xiaoxue shook off Li Fan's hand and chased after the thief.
Scenes of the past replayed in Li Fan's mind.
Fang Xiaoxue chased after the thief, but she was stabbed to death by the thief and his accomplice with a dagger.
When Fang Xiaoxue died, her hand was still tightly holding onto the stolen purse. However, the two thieves were nowhere to be found. Even the stolen woman wasn't willing to testify in court. Xiaoxue's death was not worth it. She didn't even know who to sue.
In the end, the school used Xiaoxue as a negative example to tell everyone not to meddle in other people's business.
As for Xiaoxue's parents, one was mentally ill, and the other was addicted to alcohol. Later, when they were driving, they drank too much, and the whole family crawled under the truck.
This incident was a shadow hidden in Li Fan's heart.
