    Chapter 4 Paperwork

    When Shan Nan rushed to the classroom, his morning self-study was already over. He gasped for air and stood at the door of the classroom to calm down.Then he gently opened the classroom door and said, "Report..."

    His voice was low.

    There was silence in the classroom. Zhang Xueli had just finished getting angry because of yesterday's essay topic. Shang Nan's appearance undoubtedly added fuel to the fire. She turned her head, endured it for a long time, and dropped a sentence,

    "Call and ask your mother to come to school."

    In private aristocratic high schools, not every teacher is afraid of these wealthy young men and ladies.

    The enrollment rate of No. 3 Middle School is extremely high. They not only teach textbook knowledge, but also teach various etiquettes. The parents are extremely well-educated. Except for a few parents who usually like to make trouble, most of them are polite to the teachers, even the school security guards..

    What's more, Zhang Xueli's family is not ordinary. She has always been strict with her students.

    Dai Lili will come to school in two hours.

    Shang Nan's attention was all on Yu Zhibai.

    He found that the desk behind him that had been empty for most of yesterday was Yu Zhibai.

    Yu Zhibai was sitting on his seat, with clear black and white eyes and a faint smile on his lips. He had been watching Shannan since he appeared at the door of the classroom.

    It wasn't until get out of class was over that he took the initiative to talk to Shang Nan.

    "Thank you for your help yesterday. I brought you a thank you gift." Yu Zhibai tilted his head and rummaged for something in the desk. His eyelashes were long and his eyes were dark.

    It took a long time before Yu Zhibai took something out of his schoolbag and put it in Shang Nan's palm.

    Shang Nan's fingers flinched inconspicuously, and he watched Yu Zhibai's movements intently. He was afraid that what Yu Zhibai gave him was an eyeball, or a small paper man?I don't know why, but Shannan feels that if it is really one of these two things, it is very reasonable.

    "It's a very cheap thing, I hope you don't dislike it." The paper man's smile actually revealed a bit of shyness, which was completely different from the bad and weird look last night.

    What he gave to Shannan was a few fruit candies, with transparent wrapping paper, the two ends twisted into a beautiful fan shape, and orange-flavored candies wrapped inside.

    Shang Nan accepted the candy and asked, "Is it made of paper?" It was almost provocative.

    Yu Zhibai's eyes always looked at Shang Nan with a slight smile, but he tilted his head slightly to show his confusion and curiosity.

    Shang Nan calmly opened the wrapper of a candy. His green-white fingers made the cheap fruit candy shine like a crystal in his hand. He held the candy in his mouth and said vaguely, "Yu Zhibai, inWhen I saw that little paper man, I guessed it all.”

    After he finished speaking, he raised his eyes and said with a smile: "Yu Zhibai, let's be friends. I won't tell anyone your secrets." Shannan held the candy and turned around to sit down. He almost forgot, Yu ZhibaiBai didn't know that he already knew his identity. Fortunately, he reacted quickly.

    The two of them were going back and forth, but they didn't think it was anything. It was just a chat between classmates. There was a desk between them, and no one else could see what Yu Zhibai put in Shangnan's palm.

    But Zhang Hu could see clearly that he was Shang Nan's deskmate.

    Zhang Hu leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Are you planning to pursue Yu Zhibai again?"

    Shannan peeled off the candy wrapper and put a candy into his mouth. Hearing Zhang Hu's question, he glanced at him and said, "No, I'm just being friends with him."

    "Friends?" Zhang Hu carefully studied the word "pin" and asked again, "Do you mean the kind of friends who are lovers?"

    "..."

    When asked about Shang Nan, Zhang Hu was not so bold, and Yu Zhibai was more approachable. He turned to Yu Zhibai and asked, boldly, "Are you and Shang Nan going to be friends?"

    Zhang Hu's voice was very loud. Even if he deliberately controlled the volume, Shang Nan could still hear every word.

    Shang Nan pushed the candy in his mouth from the left to the right, then pushed it from the right to the left with the tip of his tongue, going back and forth several times, and finally waited for Yu Zhibai's answer.

    "Yes." Yu Zhibai smiled sheepishly.

    [14: Yu Zhibai doesn’t trust you.]

    "It's normal for him not to trust me, but he will always grow to trust me."

    Shannan knew that it was difficult for someone like Yu Zhibai, who seemed gentle and polite but was actually cold and gloomy, to get into his heart. If he could press his eyeballs into his sockets with an expressionless expression, he knew that he was not a person with a healthy mentality.monster.

    Monsters are gloomy, indifferent, twisted, and full of evil thoughts.

    Dai Lili appeared in Zhang Xueli's office on time two hours later. She wore light makeup and sat on the sofa with a calm expression. The jade bracelet on her wrist looked heavy and luxurious, as if it could break her wrist.

    "I asked you to come here today because I actually want to talk to you about student Shang Nan's academic problems." Zhang Xueli took out a score analysis sheet for each subject. "Student Shang Nan's grades in each subject are not very good.The name is lingering, but I accidentally discovered that classmate Shang Nan is very talented in art. Can you consider..."

    "Change your major?" Dai Lili glanced at Shangnan's transcript and said, "Teacher Zhang, do you think it is reasonable for our sole heir to the Shangnan family to change his major to study art?"

    The expression on Zhang Xueli's face was a little embarrassed, "We all make suggestions based on the students' conditions. If parents don't agree, it doesn't matter."

    Dai Lili pressed Shang Nan's report card on the glass coffee table with her fingers, "That's it. Don't bother me with this kind of thing in the future. The students will be handed over to your school, and your school will be responsible for everything."

    She stood up, her high heels clicking, and left quickly.

    The head teacher of another class not far from their position took a sip of hot tea and sighed, "Teacher Zhang, don't worry about it. Students like Shannan just hang out in school. Anyway, his family has enough money."It will take him more than three lifetimes.”

    Having said that, but...

    Dai Lili walked along the corridor towards the stairs. At the corner, she collided with a student.

    She was wearing high heels and almost fell down. Fortunately, she was caught by a student in time. After the student supported her, he immediately squatted down and picked up the scattered homework books.

    "Sorry." Dai Lili put her handbag aside, bent down to pick up a few homework books that had flown far away, and handed them to the boy who lowered his head and said nothing.

    The boy piled all his homework into a pile, held it in his arms and stood up. He slightly lowered his eyes and looked at the lady in front of him and said, "It doesn't matter, you didn't mean it."

    Dai Lili saw the boy's appearance clearly, and her expression instantly became cold. She bumped Yu Zhibai's shoulder lightly and then left on her high heels.

    Yu Zhibai did not stay where he was and went to the teacher's office with his homework.

    "Report."

    "Come in."

    Zhang Xueli still smiled brightly at Yu Zhibai. She had good grades, good manners, good character, and good looks. Any teacher would like this kind of student.

    "That's it. I have an idea. Let me tell you about it. If you agree, we will do it. If you don't agree, I will ask someone else." Zhang Xueli looked at Yu Zhibai's expression. Yu Zhibai usually saidHe has a good temper, but talks very little. Apart from being a class representative, he has no other duties and does not participate in class activities very much. It is difficult to guess what he is thinking.

    Yu Zhibai smiled and said, "You tell me."

    "The college entrance examination will be held next year. Student Shangnan is the weakest student in our class' cultural class. As a classmate, can you help him? If you agree, I would like to make you a deskmate, but if you can't, it doesn’t matter, I can personally tutor you.” Zhang Xueli’s tone was very good, and she always discussed everything with her students.

    Yu Zhibai lowered his eyes and thought for a while, "Okay."

    Zhang Xueli was startled. She didn't expect Yu Zhibai to agree so quickly, but then she thought about it. The two of them had always been sitting next to each other, and they were probably close to each other on weekdays. So it was not surprising that Yu Zhibai agreed immediately.

    "But...how do you want me to help him?" Yu Zhibai seemed confused.

    Zhang Xueli pushed up her glasses and smiled very kindly, "Student Shannan is less motivated to study. You two can discuss how to make up for your homework, but you must do it step by step and balance work with rest."

    Yu Zhibai nodded almost invisibly, and asked with some hesitation: "Have you asked Shang Nan for his opinion?"

    Indeed, there is still this problem, but I don't mind coming to Shang Nan. Compared with his noble mother who just left things alone, she and Yu Zhibai are all doing it for his own good.After Zhang Xueli thought about this, she said to Yu Zhibai, "How about you go back to the classroom and ask him for me?"

    "Okay." Yu Zhibai agreed softly.

    [14:Your mother is gone.]

    Shannan was lying on the table. He had finished writing all the test papers he was handed out because he was bored. Now he could only play small games on his mobile phone. He was not surprised when he heard the system's words, "Does she love me?"

    In Shang Nan's memory, Dai Lili would throw things and hit people when she was not normal. In addition to Shang Nan, her aunt and driver had their own jobs at home, so the only people she could beat were Shang Nan.

    In the past, Shang Nan often had various scars and bruises on her body. Shang Nan knew that she didn't mean it, but he also knew that Dai Lili didn't seem to love him very much, but she didn't love him, and it seemed to be excusable.But not loving it is also incredible.

    Therefore, Shannan was too lazy to think about this problem in detail, and left after completing the task.

    [14: After we leave this world, "Appreciating the South" will continue everything about you.]

    Shang Nan didn't say anything. He continued to yawn, and physiological tears welled up and slid down the corners of his eyes.

    Zhang Hu next to him was dumbfounded, "Shang Nan, what's wrong with you? Did you not sleep well or is something wrong?"

    "I didn't sleep well." Shonan took out a chocolate that his aunt had put in from his schoolbag and handed it to Zhang Hu from under the table, "Thank you for yesterday's bread."

    After a brief contact, Zhang Hu felt that it was good to appreciate southerners, unlike some rich second generations.He took it with a relaxed expression and studied the chocolate wrapper for a while. It was full of incomprehensible letters and looked very expensive. "Thank you." Zhang Hu, who is passionate about food, said happily.

    Shang Nan stared at Zhang Hu happily eating chocolate for a while, then asked seemingly casually, "Zhang Hu, do you know why Lu Yang and his gang bullied Yu Zhibai?" Every class would do this.There were a few people who were particularly gossipy, similar to know-it-alls, and they intuitively told Shan Nan that Zhang Hu was one of these people.

    After he asked, he saw Zhang Hu's expression change and knew that Zhang Hu really knew it.

    Zhang Hu frowned, "You've been chasing Yu Zhibai for so long, don't you know?"

    Facing Zhang Hu's doubts, Shang Nan's expression changed, and he lowered his head in shame and said, "I haven't paid attention to it before."

    "Oh, don't blame yourself," Zhang Hu saw that Shannan was depressed and quickly put aside his doubts. In addition, he told Shannan everything he knew about Yu Zhibai, "Lu Yang, heDad pursued Yu Zhibai’s mother, which was a grudge from the previous generation. Yu Zhibai’s mother has also passed away for so many years, but Lu Yang actually pursued Yu Zhibai for several years. In my personal opinion, he actually has noIt's just a pretense of school bullying, because he is jealous of Yu Zhibai, after all, Yu Zhibai is so powerful that he can't stand him."

    "Moreover, he bullied many people, and then he only focused on Yu Zhibai." Zhang Hu really sympathized with Yu Zhibai, "Yu Zhibai did nothing wrong, and his mother did nothing wrong either."

    Shang Nan lay back on the table again, lowered his eyelashes, and could see a faint white mist when breathing.

    He thought of the woman in red standing at the exit of the tunnel in the morning. She was Yu Zhibai's mother. She was in a blood-red dress and had a slender body. She was surrounded by mist. She was like a touch of watercolor that lit up the world.

    "Why is she there?" Shannan was curious, but it seemed that he was the only one who saw the other person. What the driver saw was the normal scene at the tunnel exit.

    [14: She was worried about Yu Zhibai.]

    [14: In fact, after Yu Zhibai became a paper man, its perception system is different from that of you humans. It doesn’t feel pain if you feel uncomfortable, and it may not feel pain if you feel ecstatic.What it feels, even to the paper man, it can't even feel pain.]

    [14 Comfort Shannan: So, you don’t have to feel sorry for the monster. Anyway, after the mission is completed, we will enter the next world. It is easy to lose yourself if you are too emotional.]

    Shang Nan was moved and sympathetic. He remembered last night, when Yu Zhibai asked in a low voice: "Classmate Shang Nan, can you help me pick out my eyeballs?".

    The monster should be asking for more than just picking up his eyeballs.

    Maybe it was testing Shannan, "Classmate Shannan, are you and them... the same?"
