Chapter 21: The Little Secret Between Us Flying Pig Net

  Wang Shanshan burst out laughing, perhaps for the first time deeply understanding Li Yi, she thought he was very interesting and dared to say anything nonsense. However, although she was grateful, she would not settle her lifelong event just because of these few things, because she always believed that a marriage without feelings would not be happy even if they were together.

  It's like that, Wang Shanshan continued: "You also know that my parents have been away from home since I was young, they work outside and can only contact a few times a year. Over the years, it has been just me and my grandfather relying on each other, to me, my grandfather is very important, I don't want anything to happen to him, do you understand what I'm saying?"

  "I understand, don't worry, I will definitely cure Grandpa's illness." Li Yi guaranteed.

  Wang Shanshan nodded slightly. She believed Li Yi, but still said: "If, I mean if you can really cure my grandfather's illness, then I'll be your girlfriend."

  "Is that all?" Li Yi didn't have absolute confidence in completely curing his chronic leg condition, but he believed that as long as he continued to massage it, there would eventually be a day when he recovered.

  "What's wrong?"

  Li Yi knew he was thinking too much and smiled before saying: "I mean, with grades as poor as mine, do you think I can bring you happiness if you marry me in the future?"

  "Results can't represent a person's ability, I always believe that gold will always shine. Wang Shanshan shared her life experience and said slowly, 'Since you can learn such complex traditional Chinese massage, I believe that as long as you study hard, results won't be a problem for you.'"

  This sentence had a great impact on Li Yi. Wang Shanshan and Chen Xiaofei have said similar things, but it feels completely different.

  Chen Xiaofei hopes that Li Yi will improve his grades and not drag down the class, while Wang Shanshan really thinks that Li Yi can achieve better results.

  "Sparkle, thank you." Li Yi said emotionally.

  Wang Shanshan was stunned for a moment. She didn't think she had said anything, so why was the other person thanking her? So she said: "Why are you thanking me? The one who should be thanked is actually me."

  "Haha! Then let's stop thanking each other." Li Yi said a few more words, and half an hour later they walked side by side out of the campus.

  Before parting ways, Wang Shanshan smiled at Li Yi and winked her big eyes: "Li Yi, this is a little secret between us, you're not allowed to tell anyone else!"

  Back home, Li Yi took out his middle school textbook and started reading from the first page. Every word was deeply etched in his mind. He read for a long time, until his mother called him to dinner, before he came back to himself. After dinner, Li Yi continued reading, all the way into the deep night, until he finished reading all of his middle school textbook.

  It was late at night, Li Yi fell into a deep sleep and slept until after 9 o'clock in the morning.

  Li Yi simply ate the breakfast his mother had left for him and then continued reading. He planned to finish all of his high school textbooks within a week.

  On Monday morning, Li Yi came to the classroom, and Liu Wei walked over, constantly making eyes at him.

  Li Yi didn't understand what this guy was trying to express at all, and said irritably: "Mysteriously, what are you trying to feel?"

  Liu Wei hadn't had time to speak, when Chen Xiaofei stood up from her seat, walked in front of Li Yi with a huff, and said: "You come out with me for a minute, I have something to say to you?"

  Li Yi touched his head, what's wrong with this kid? But still walked towards the classroom door.

  "Li Yi, you've gone too far! How could you tell everyone about this?" Chen Xiaofei said angrily, and she didn't seem to be pretending.

  Li Yi was confused and said: "I just arrived at school, don't wrong me."

  "Hum! Did I wrong you?" Chen Xiaofei said indignantly, "If it wasn't for what you said, how would they know we were together the night before last?"

  "So that's what it was!" Li Yi suddenly said, "That night we didn't come to school, maybe they guessed it!"

  "Guess what?" Chen Xiaofei sneered and coldly hummed, "They really are good at guessing, they even guessed that we went to the small woods, and then you...".

  Thinking about what happened in the morning, Chen Xiaofei was furious and couldn't help but notice that many of her classmates were staring at her legs and paying attention to her posture. At first, Chen Xiaofei thought these male classmates were psychologically abnormal, but when she saw that female classmates were also doing so, she realized the severity of the situation and asked her deskmate what was going on.

  Classmates hesitated and finally said under Chen Xiaofei's questioning that they heard rumors, Li Yi took her down in the small tree forest that night.

  After hearing these words, Chen Xiaofei was furious! Although she had a good impression of Li Yi, they weren't in a romantic relationship yet, and the eight characters hadn't even been revealed! How could he say that he had taken her down? If rumors continued to spread, what would happen? Wouldn't it become more and more absurd, until finally someone would point at her back and say: Look, it's her, I heard she and Li Yi already have a child together.

  What's most infuriating is that Chen Xiaofei was completely unaware from start to finish, and if this matter were to spread to other classes, it would inevitably affect her reputation in school.

  Li Yi was also stunned. The first person he thought of was Liu Wei. He clenched his fist and said, "I'll investigate this matter. You have to believe me, it's not what I said."

  "Hum! Who else if not you? If you don't speak, will they know that we were together that night?" Chen Xiaofei stared at Li Yi and asked aggressively.

  Li Yi couldn't explain it at all. He took a deep breath and said, "Give me one day, I'll give you a satisfactory answer."

  "No need, I don't want you to explain, you'll only make things more confusing." Chen Xiaofei gave Li Yi a cold glance and turned around to walk into the classroom. She walked straight to the podium and said loudly, "Today, I must clarify one thing: first, Li Yi and I are not in a romantic relationship; we're close because I want to help him improve his grades so as not to drag down the class average."

  "Secondly, I don't have a good impression of him now, and I won't be with him in the future either... just like I won't be with him now." Chen Xiaofei's voice was not loud, but very certain. "I only realized now that I misjudged him, he doesn't deserve my sympathy, such a classmate is not worthy of staying in our class."

  Bang! Bang! Bang!

  Class monitor Du Haibo applauded first, and the rest of the classmates followed suit. Only Liu Wei and other close friends looked at Chen Xiaofei with a surprised face.

  After a brief round of applause, Du Haibo walked up to the stage and said: "What Chen said is right, Li Yi doesn't deserve to stay in school. However, our class teacher also said that even if he's useless, we should give him another chance. The mid-term exams are coming soon, let's wait and see."

  Two voices echoed in his ears, but Li Yi didn't hear a word. He shouted loudly towards the classroom: "Liu Wei, come out for a minute!"

  Liu Wei ran in front of Li Yi and before Li Yi could speak, he vowed: "Yi Ge, you have to believe me, it really wasn't me who betrayed you."

  "Really isn't it?" Li Yi also didn't believe that Liu Wei could do such a thing, after so many years of brotherhood, he knew Liu Wei's character all too well.

  "That night I accompanied you to the woods and then left, I didn't tell anyone about this matter." Liu Wei said affirmatively.

  Liu Wei's expression didn't seem like he was lying, Li Yi furrowed his brow and waved his hand, saying: "It's nothing, I'll investigate this matter clearly." After speaking, he walked towards the classroom.

  Originally intended to listen carefully, but because of this little episode interrupted again, Li Yi was observing the expressions of Du Haibo and others during class.

  If someone really wants to frame himself, Du Haibo is the most suspicious and he also has the ability to do so.

  I don't know if Du Haibo is pretending to be too good or if he has nothing to do with this matter. Li Yi observed him for a whole morning and found that his expression didn't change at all, as if he really had nothing to do with it. Just when Li Yi was about to give up and observe the other classmates, he thought of a serious problem.

  "Yes, disguise, such a big thing happened to Chen's classmate, how could he be unmoved? Even during the break, he didn't ask anyone about the situation, the only possibility is that he knew about it and didn't need to ask others." Li Yi thought of this, frowning again, "How can I find evidence to prove my innocence?"

  There is no wall in the world that cannot be breached!

  Li Yi suspected Du Haibo, so he continued to investigate. During the day in class, he couldn't find any clues. After self-study was dismissed, he discovered a detail: previously, Du Haibo would always leave with Wang Haisheng and Xiao Hei, but this time he walked out of the classroom alone. As Li Yi followed him on campus, he noticed that Du Haibo glanced around, seemingly checking if anyone was following him.

  These actions made Li Yi even more certain that this matter was either done by him or had a great deal to do with him.

  All the way to track to campus outside, Du Haibo walked a Chery sedan, only to hear a whooshing sound, the car sped forward like lightning.

  "Damn it, I forgot that this guy is a car hopper." Li Yi cursed and gave up the idea of chasing after him. He ran as fast as he could, but couldn't catch up with the sedan. However, if he didn't chase after it, he wouldn't be able to investigate any leads either. Li Yi was unwilling to give up, so he continued running forward, hoping that the sedan would stop in front of him.

  But just a few steps into his run, Li Yi was shocked by what he saw: the scenery around him was flying backward at an incredible speed.

  "What's going on? When did my speed become this fast?" Li Yi subconsciously looked down at his feet, and his legs were running forward at an astonishing speed, which was not much slower than a car. Suddenly, Li Yi thought of a phrase, "light as a swallow", could it be that the Nine Xuan Jade Pendant made him light as a swallow?

  These past few days have been too strange, Li Yi didn't have time to think much. Since he was given this opportunity, he must catch up with Du Haibo. He dispersed his divine sense and soon discovered the sedan stopped at the intersection waiting for the red light, his speed slowed down. There were too many people going in that direction, if he continued to run at this speed, he would inevitably be caught as a monster and taken to a research lab to be studied like a white mouse.

  The sedan moved forward, and Li Yi followed at a steady pace, his attention fixed on the people inside.

  Du Haibo sat in the back of the car, saying nothing, just holding his mobile phone in his hand, as if waiting for something.

  After more than ten minutes, a wave of fatigue came to Li Yi's mind, and he stumbled under his feet, almost falling to the ground.

  "Could it be that the power of the divine consciousness has reached its limit, and is giving up just like this?" Li Yi felt a bit unwilling to give up, and just as he was about to fall, he suddenly thought of a dan medicine he had obtained a few days ago. He hastily took out the flattened pill from his upper garment pocket. The pill had become this shape, and Li Yi felt a wave of nausea, but he didn't have time to think much, holding onto the idea of taking a gamble, he swallowed the pill in one gulp.
