WTO accession

Chapter 39

An indescribable hot tide rolled in Nan Zhuo's mind. A class representative was handing out his homework, and he stood on the edge of his seat and handed him the notebook, but he didn't respond at all.

The class representative didn't speak any more, no one wanted to mess with this freak, the homework book was placed by Nan Zhuo's hand, and the class representative walked away with the rest in his arms.Nan Zhuo seemed to have recalled his consciousness, turned his head suddenly, and looked at Xiao Guo's empty seat across a few rows of tables and chairs.

The school uniform jacket was draped over the back of Xiao Guo's chair, it should be the one he returned after washing it.

The students next to him were still discussing, saying: "I heard that the ambulances are coming... Hey, why do you think he messed with those three people? Yes, the three who were punished for beating Nanzhuo last time, all of them Already remembered..."

Speaking of this, several people paused, raised their heads and glanced in Nan Zhuo's direction, but Nan Zhuo looked back unceremoniously, and moved their eyes away again.Nan Zhuo wanted to continue writing the question, lowered his head and adjusted the position of holding the pen with three fingers.

There was still talking, and the voice was lowered a lot.Nan Zhuo heard the name of a hospital, paused for two seconds expressionlessly, stood up and left.

The pocket money Chen Fangyi gave was not much, but it was enough to take a taxi.It was only when Nan Zhuo arrived at the hospital that he realized that he didn’t know which department Xiao Guo was in, so he could only go to the information desk to ask the nurse to help broadcast, and finally the class teacher at the hospital came to pick him up and took him to the orthopedic clinic.

"You didn't ask the teacher for leave when you came out, did you? Are you still absent from class?" The head teacher was a bit reproachful, and said: "But that's okay, I just want to ask you, is this fight related to you?"

Nan Zhuo didn't answer, and when he arrived at the consultation room, Xiao Guo was putting on a plaster cast, and his left arm was fractured.Nan Zhuo walked over to stand in front of Xiao Guo, Xiao Guo looked up at him in surprise, his face was also injured.

The two of them couldn't talk alone. The head teacher, the vice principal, and the three boys happened to be asking questions together.Nan Zhuo was still a little dazed, Xiao Guo was the one answering the question, he insisted that this time he went there this morning to complain about Nan Zhuo, and then those people made a move.

The three boys knew that they had been hit by the aggressive method, and one of them wanted to turn over the old score and say that he was stabbed by Nan Zhuo yesterday, but after looking at Nan Zhuo's hand, he didn't dare to start.What was even more frightening was that Xiao Guo's parents arrived that afternoon. They flew back directly from the China-Myanmar border after receiving a call from the school.

Yang Xuan wore imported famous brands from head to toe, and the jade bracelet on her wrist was estimated to be worth the combined monthly income of all the teachers present.She also looks very flamboyant, but she is not as careless as Chen Fangyi. She cares about something, and that is her son.

While she was talking, she put her hand on Xiao Guo's shoulder, stared fiercely at the three boys, and looked at the teachers.She frowned and said: "I'll start with the ugly words first. If my son suffers from any sequelae, I can't spare you! My son has never been injured like this since he was a child. It's too much for you!"

The vice-principal, who is usually in charge of discipline, smiled awkwardly. The Xiao family is an upstart, and their quality can be low, but they are really rich.The principal said: "No, no, it's not so serious..."

"What's not serious! Isn't it serious even after you've been admitted to the hospital?" Yang Xuan retorted angrily, "I didn't say, how do schools educate students? Teach children to fight after a few words? You three are all in the third year of high school. Bullying Is it plausible for us in the lower grades? What kind of children are you all who can throw such a heavy hand! Hey, I said it just now, my son quarreled with you because he wanted to judge his classmates, right?"

She turned her face and saw Nan Zhuo standing aside, Xiao Guo wanted to stop him, but Yang Xuan's movements were quick, she stretched out her hand and grabbed Nan Zhuo's arm and pulled him to him.She glanced at Nan Zhuo's face and hands, showing a distressed expression.

"How did this happen!" She was very concerned about Nan Zhuo, and asked, "Come on, this classmate, you are in the same class as Xiao, right? Xiao Guo is going to judge for you this time, right?"

Nan Zhuo looked at her for two seconds, then nodded.

Yang Xuan continued to hold Nan Zhuo, and asked: "Okay, then tell Auntie, did the three of them bully you for your injuries?"

Nan Zhuo lowered his eyes and did not answer, Xiao Guo stood on the other side of Yang Xuan, and said for him: "Yes."

With these words, Yang Xuan seemed to be encouraged. She spoke sharply and forcefully, and trained a few teachers and three boys so hard that they could hardly lift their heads.Nan Zhuo looked up and saw Xiao Guo looking at his mother expressionlessly.

When something like this happens, the attitude of the parents is very important.The last time Chen Fang didn't care about Nan Zhuo, the school didn't punish those three people severely, which led to the subsequent revenge and Xiao Guo's injury, and Xiao's parents are not easy to mess with, the two of them only got married in the past two years Family, after having money, I can't wait to give all the best to my son, how could I agree to deal with it lightly.

Xiao Siye had been sitting at the back like a mountain, suppressing the situation, not saying much. After Yang Xuan had finished speaking, he gently patted his wife's hand, and said to the principal: "We don't need compensation, but we ask for compensation. Fire the person who injured our son...and this classmate."

This is the tacit understanding that the couple developed in the business field. Let Yang Xuan break the matter up and talk about it first, and finally let Xiao Siye make a summary and make an appeal. His previous silence was just for the deterrent effect at this moment.This trick is indeed powerful, the school's momentum has long since disappeared, and there is no room for bargaining.

When Nan Zhuo heard the word "expulsion", he turned to look at Xiao Guo, just as Xiao Guo also looked over, the two of them glanced at each other like a superficial glance.Xiao Guo pursed his lips and smiled, then Nan Zhuo looked away first.

In the end, the school asked everyone to go back and wait for the results, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that this meant agreeing with Xiao Guo's parents.The three boys were all stupid. The parents of the three families kept begging the principal, and the house was in chaos.

Xiao Siye and Yang Xuan won a complete victory, Xiao Guo's injury didn't need to be hospitalized, and he recovered within four weeks of recuperation, when the two of them left with their son, they didn't look back.Xiao Guo was walked between his parents, he turned sideways, as if he wanted to say something to Nan Zhuo, but Yang Xuan put his arms around his shoulders and turned back.Nan Zhuo was behind them and heard Yang Xuan and Xiao Guo talking.

"Son," Yang Xuan took Xiao Guo's hand and said with hatred, "It's not that mother said you, you have nothing to do to others, poor people must have something to hate, he is bullied and What does it matter to you..."

The sunset in the city shed light like gold leaf, Nan Zhuo stood in the shadow by the hospital door, looked at the backs of the Xiao family, and smiled softly.

The purpose of Xiao Guo doing this is to call his parents back, Chen Fangyi ignores Nan Zhuo, but Xiao Siye and Yang Xuan will not ignore Xiao Guo.This is a matter of hurting one thousand enemies and eight hundred, but this is the only way that Xiao Guo can think of in his simple world.

Nan Zhuo blinked, and said to himself in the direction Xiao Guo left: "You're stupid."

***

The decision to expel the three senior boys was posted on the school bulletin board the next day, but Nan Zhuo didn't read it, and he didn't talk to Xiao Guo when he was in class.Xiao Guo arrived later than him, with his schoolbag on one shoulder, he paused when he passed by his seat, and said in a low voice, "Nan Zhuo."

Nan Zhuo didn't look up, and didn't stop writing the question, asking, "What's the matter?"

Xiao Guo was taken aback by the question, the boy was always covered with thorns, and people around him would get stabbed without getting too close.He thought for a while, and returned to his seat first without saying anything.

There is morning exercise before the first class in the morning, when the assembly music starts, everyone in the class goes out.But Nan Zhuo didn't have to go because of his hand injury. The head teacher knocked on his desk and asked him to have a brief talk in the office.

When Nan Zhuo came out, the exercise was not over yet, he went back to class and bumped into Xiao Guo at the door of the class.

Xiao Guo stood just under the door frame, blocking the entrance and exit space by himself.Nan Zhuo stopped in front of him, neither of them spoke immediately.

Finally, Nan Zhuo broke the silence and asked, "Can I go in?"

Xiao Guo made way sideways, Nan Zhuo returned to his seat.There were only the two of them in the classroom, Xiao Guo stood beside him for a long time and asked, "You, is your hand feeling better?"

"I don't know," Nan Zhuo looked up at him, "I don't feel it."

"Oh, then you, that, be careful not to get worse." Xiao Guo's voice was unnatural, he paused, and then said: "What did the teacher ask you for just now?"

Nan Zhuo twirled the pen around his fingertips and said, "Let me pay attention, don't cause trouble."

It was only two weeks after the start of school that two incidents happened in succession. The consequences were so serious, and they were all related to Nan Zhuo. It was not a real thing for a boy to grow up like him. Even if his grades were good, the head teacher didn't care about Nan Zhuo good face.

Nan Zhuo smiled and said, "Poor people must have something to hate."

Xiao Guo felt that the tip of his ear was a bit hot, he knew that Nan Zhuo said this sentence just yesterday.He shook his head, wanting to say that he disagreed, but Nan Zhuo didn't even lift his head.

The two of them were speechless after talking here, Nan Zhuo looked down at the papers on the table, and Xiao Guo didn't leave, just stood beside him.Nan Zhuo's pen tip drew a few unambiguous lines on the draft paper, feeling annoyed.There was no expression on his face because he didn't know what expression he should wear. The person who bullied him had never been punished like this before, and no one stood up for him like Xiao Guo.

The irritability comes from not being used to such things, he doesn't know how to deal with it, and he can't even say the word "thank you".

In fact, when he heard Xiao Guo was beaten and sent to the hospital, what he thought was meddling in his own business and what he deserved.But he went to the hospital by accident, and showed a very concerned expression to Xiao Guo by accident.

Nan Zhuo threw down the pen, tapped the table with a finger with steel nails, the sound made Xiao Guo jumped.He squatted down immediately, so that he was shorter than Nan Zhuo, and had to look up at Nan Zhuo.

Nan Zhuo lowered his eyes, put his hands on the table and supported his head, and asked, "What do you want to do?"

"I don't want to do anything," Xiao Guo said in a low voice, "I just want to care about you."

"I don't need anyone to care about me," Nan Zhuo's voice trembled inexplicably, he said, "Go away, go back to your seat, and don't talk to me again. Did you hear that?"

Xiao Guo didn't speak or move, but his lips were tightly pressed, and he stared at Nan Zhuo.He seemed to be in a weak position, but Nan Zhuo felt a sense of oppression, which was very similar to the feeling when this person trapped him in front of the car door amidst the crackling rain the afternoon before yesterday, and those eyes seemed to contain a deeper meaning, Nan Zhuo I didn't dare to think about it.

He suddenly withdrew the hand supporting his head and said, "I don't want to talk to you!"

Nan Zhuo was also taken aback when he said this, because he was too naive, like a child quarrelling, so hypocritical.And his voice was tense, as if he was holding back crying.

Xiao Guo was also a little dazed, and asked, "Why?"

"I hate you," Nan Zhuo turned his face away, and said, "Don't get too close to me, why are you helping me? I don't care, and I don't...Anyway, I don't want to talk to you! You are not a good baby, you are an idiot..."

He spoke illogically, and his eyes were really red.He didn't wait for Xiao Guo to answer, he raised his hand to cover his eyes, and said in the same broken voice: "Xiao Guo, you are very happy, don't get involved with me. Did you hear that?"

Xiao Guo reached out and grabbed his wrist, trying to get him to take it off, but Nan Zhuo struggled and said repeatedly: "Don't touch me, you go, I will never talk to you again... ..”

Xiao Guo increased his strength, and Nan Zhuo's hand was broken away by him.He raised his head and looked at Nan Zhuo, and said stubbornly: "If I don't leave, I will talk to you."

Nan Zhuo gradually quieted down, Xiao Guo was still holding his wrist, the heartbeats of the two could be heard from each other, it was a very cramped and dangerous scene.

"Nan Zhuo," Xiao Guo said like a primary school student, "I want to play with you, you and I should be friends."

He didn't reason, and he didn't ask Nan Zhuo to thank him.He threw this question to Nan Zhuo, leaving the suffering to himself.Nan Zhuo looked at him condescendingly, swallowed by a feeling he had never felt before.

He has never experienced this feeling before, and no one with the best liberal arts can accurately describe it. It is a kind of half-dream and half-awake feeling similar to waking up from a deep sleep, feeling happy ignorantly, and then vaguely giving birth to desire.He realized that he was standing on the boundary line of some kind of major decision. With a single thought, he seemed to be able to see a completely different version of himself in the future.

The lonely life was left in sleep, Nan Zhuo woke up from the old days, and understood the word "opportunity" for the first time.Something broke in his body and something grew.

With red eyes, he nodded to Xiao Guo after a long time.

***

Nan Zhuo has attended school for six years so far, and Xiao Guo is the first person around him who surpasses his classmate status.

What is the responsibility of a friend, how to establish an emotional connection with others, Nan Zhuo doesn't even know.It was like he was stepping into the human world and society for the first time, and he wanted Xiao to teach him everything.

"Nan Zhuo, can you change your seat?" During recess, Xiao came to find Nan Zhuo, "Sit in front of me."

Nan Zhuo stopped writing and looked up at him, asking, "Why?"

Xiao Guo hesitated for a moment, then said: "We are all injured, we can take care of each other."

Nan Zhuo seemed a little dissatisfied and asked, "Why don't you sit in the front?"

"I'm too tall," Xiao Guo said, "If I sit in the second row, I will block the people behind me."

Nan Zhuo thought for a while, put down his pen and said, "OK."

I had to tell the teacher about changing seats, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong with the two wounded taking care of each other, so the head teacher agreed.Nan Zhuo moved back a few rows and sat in front of Xiao Guo.

Both of them are very serious about their studies, and they won't interfere with each other's lectures after sitting close to each other. At most, they discuss topics together during class breaks.The students in the class were surprised that Nan Zhuo and Xiao Guo made friends, but after being refuted several times by Xiao Guo, they stopped talking badly, saying that they are a common progress group.

When school was over, Nan Zhuo didn't wait for Xiao Guo at first, but Xiao Guo told him to wait and he just waited.When the two went downstairs, they met a classmate who usually played basketball with Xiao Guo. They greeted Xiao Guo with the snacks they just bought.

A classmate asked Xiao Guo, "When will your arm be healed? I'm waiting for you to play ball together."

Xiao Guo didn't stop walking and said, "There are still more than two weeks."

The classmate sighed regretfully, and asked him again: "Do you want to eat popping candy?"

Xiao Guo paused for a moment, then stretched out his hand to pull Nan Zhuo beside him.Nan Zhuo didn't pay attention at first, but raised his eyebrows suspiciously after being pulled back.

He was used to it, Xiao Guo was very popular, and he knew people in the corridor and on the playground.Sometimes these people chatted with Xiao Guo, and the conversations were full of smoke and fire, and he couldn't quite understand them.But he wanted to go alone first and then refused to let him go, so he waited beside him.

Xiao Guo asked him: "Nan Zhuo, do you want to eat candy?"

Nan Zhuo had a very subtle expression on his originally extremely peaceful face, it was hard to say whether he wanted it or not.Xiao Guo lightly touched his shoulder, and said, "Jumping Candy."

I have heard of this kind of sugar Nanzhuo. It is said that the small particles will move after being put into the mouth, and the whole tongue can be numb when shaken.But he shook his head and said to Xiao Guo: "You eat."

Xiao Guo didn't eat, so he greeted his classmates and left with Nan Zhuo.When passing by the canteen, Xiao Guo asked, "Don't you like sweets?"

Nan Zhuo frowned and asked, "How do you know?"

"I see you always eat sweet and sour pork ribs, white sugar tomatoes and so on in the cafeteria." Xiao Guo answered naturally, and asked again: "You also know what I like to eat, right?"

He thought it was quite reasonable, but Nan Zhuo really didn't answer.

"Nanzhuo," Xiao Guo asked, "do you know what flavor I like to eat?"

Nan Zhuo was a little embarrassed, he really didn't know how deep friends should understand each other.He thought about it and said honestly, "I don't know."

Xiao Guo stopped in his tracks, Nan Zhuo turned his head immediately, and noticed that the man's expression was a little hurt.
