Aristocrat Boys School

Chapter 133 Take the initiative

“I saw Zhao Zexi at the door just now.
What was he looking for from you?”

After Jian Chi came back, Zhang Yang asked casually while looking at the door.
Before he could answer, he called out Jian Chi’s name.
Jian Chi woke up like a dream and shook his head, “It’s not anything important.”

Judging from his face, it doesn’t look like an ‘unimportant thing’.
The teacher came in, Zhang Yang could only stop and ask for a while, but with his memory, he probably couldn’t remember what he was going to ask after class.
Jian Chi turned on the computer, looking at the lock screen interface, without taking the next step.

He knew what Zhao Zexi meant when he asked him that sentence, but he hadn’t decided whether to face Ji Huaisi or not, and what to do after seeing him.

The scene of that day made Jian Chi not want to recall it for a while.
Since the accident happened, Shao Hang seemed to have decided something in his heart, and often looked at him pitifully with accusing eyes of him being a scumbag.
But returning a gaze with a gaze, the stickiness was about to suffocate Jian Chi, which often caused him to fall into an illusion that he really had something with Shao Hang.

In fact, he can’t deny this point of view, but Jian Chi really didn’t want to fall in love again after breaking up with Ji Huaisi before graduation.
He no longer had the energy to bet on whether Shao Hang will be a normal person.

With the previous failure experience, Jian Chi became hesitant about choosing this kind of thing.

Compared with Shao Hang, who always came in front of him to show his presence, Ji Huaisi seemed to disappear suddenly.
He never had the same ‘accidental encounter’ as before, and he no longer sent ambiguous messages into Jian Chi’s cell phone.
They seemed to have broken up completely – when the idea came up, Jian Chi felt it was funny, but couldn’t laugh.

After class, Jian Chi walked out of the teaching building and met Zhao Zexi again.
Rather than coincidence, Jian Chi suspected that Zhao Zexi was staying here on purpose.
A moment before the detour, Jian Chi’s figure was found by Zhao Zexi, and he walked iver quickly, “I know you don’t have classes later.”

“I’m going to the library.”

“For you, the library is more important than Ji Huaisi?”

Although they have only met a few times, Jian Chi’s impression of Zhao Zexi had always been peaceful and reliable.
Most of the people who can get close to Ji Huaisi had this trait, and Shen Shuting was probably an exception.
But such a good-natured person can’t hide the reproach in his words at this moment, “After he came to look for you, Ji Huaisi had a lot of injuries.
I think you probably know why.”

Jian Chi didn’t know, but he could guess.

He had never seen Ji Huaisi after the fight, but he had seen the bruises on Shao Hang’s arms and face.
Not only were they not covered, but they were exposed in a generous manner.
In the end, Jian Chi forcibly took him to the doctor’s room to be checked out.

At that time, he knew that Ji Huaisi’s condition would definitely not be better than Shao Hang.

Jian Chi restrained himself from thinking about this, but Zhao Zexi asked him to imagine that picture.
From the perspective of the other party, this kind of condemnation was not wrong.
Zhao Zexi didn’t know the problems between him and Ji Huaisi, so he would have strange thoughts, and it was normal for him to favor his friend.
Jian Chi felt a little headache, and he couldn’t refuse a third time.

“It’s not that I don’t want to go, I think Ji Huaisi doesn’t want to see me.
He…” Jian Chi squeezed his palm, “Is he very hurt?”

“You should go and see for yourself.”

Zhao Zexi seemed disappointed, not saying more.
After speaking, he turned to leave.
Looking at his back, Jian Chi was in a panic for no reason.
In fact, he didn’t plan to go to the library, and there was nothing to do next, but does this mean that he must go see Ji Huaisi? Of course he could hear the subtext in Zhao Zexi’s words: Ji Huaisi was hurt for you.

This kind of entanglement made Jian Chi not know how to break free.
He couldn’t completely go against his heart and ignore this worry.
Back in the dormitory, he put down the books and notebooks.
Jian Chi leaned on the bedside and sent Ji Huaisi his first text message since the breakup: Zhao Zexi came to me today, he said you are sick, pay attention to your health.

The short message was decided after deliberation for a long time.
Jian Chi originally wanted to use ‘heard’, but it was too fake.
Ji Huaisi might ask further questions, so the originally brief chat might have to continue.

Telling the truth directly doesn’t come across as too close, and doesn’t make it feel like he was running away.
When Jian Chi received Ji Huaisi’s reply, it was ten minutes later.

Instead of texting, he called directly.

“Did Zhao Zexi ask you to send me this text message?” Ji Huaisi’s lower-than-usual voice came from the receiver, sounding a little weaker, but still mixed with a touch of gentleness.
Jian Chi’s heart tightened, “I wanted to send it to you, but he just came to tell me about it.”

“You don’t have to hide it from me, he must have said something serious to you, right?” Ji Huaisi said, “I apologize to you on his behalf.
He was a little too worried.
In fact, I’m fine.”

Ji Huaisi’s voice couldn’t support the last sentence.
Just listening to him like this, Jian Chi knew that he was not feeling good right now.
“Did you…have you dealt with the wound after?”

“It’s done, but after returning, there was a fever, and the recovery of the wound slowed down.”

Jian Chi heard a murmur from the other end, “What are you doing?”

“Cooking something,” Ji Huaisi laughed, sounding helpless, “I didn’t want to eat the food in the cafeteria, maybe it’s because of a fever, everything smells bad, so I have to make it myself…”

His voice stopped abruptly, including Ji Huaisi’s words and the movement of the kitchen utensils.
Jian Chi squeezed the phone tightly, “Ji Huaisi?”

“I’m here.”

“What happened just now?” 

After a while of silence, Ji Huaisi said: ” While talking to you, I wasn’t careful and cut my hand.”

Jian Chi didn’t know what to say.

“Do you have a medical kit there? Wait a minute, did you wash off the blood first, did you cut it deeply?”

The sound of the tap being turned on came into his ear, which covered Ji Huaisi’s voice with a shadowy mist.
“I don’t know, but the blood is still flowing.”

Can’t see the picture, only hearing the sound, it brought a lot of messy conjectures to Jian Chi.
Sitting on the head of the bed, he seemed to have countless thorns stabbing his back, “Do you have a medical box there? If it’s deep, go to the infirmary quickly.
Treat it with a Band-Aid or a bandage first.” 

The accident seemed to make the two of them forget their original purpose, Jian Chi heard the sound of the faucet being turned off, and then the slippers walked across the floor, opened the cupboard to look for the medical box, and a few minutes later, Ji Huaisi’s voice came back to his ears, “I only found a Band-Aid, it’s a little short, and it can’t cover the wound and blood.” 

“What should I do,” Jian Chi sighed and stood up with his phone in hand, “Go to the infirmary to take a look at the wound first.
If you drag it out, it will be bad if you get infected.”

“It shouldn’t be that serious,” Ji Huaisi said softly.
“Someone helping me with a simple treatment should be fine.”

Jian Chi felt that he seemed to be implying something, but he couldn’t think of an answer for a while.
The two ends of the phone were silent for a moment, and Ji Huaisi broke the embarrassment with a gentle laugh, “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said that.
Hang up, I don’t think the blood is flowing much, maybe it’ll stop right away.”

But Jian Chi didn’t hang up and Ji Huaisi kept the call, as if he was waiting patiently for something.
His deep breathing fell into his ears through the microphone, then his movements were one step faster than his thoughts, and Jian Chi heard his own voice.

“I’ll go to the infirmary to get some medicine first, wait for me.”
