Chapter 18: Admitting Mistakes
At dinner time, Jiang's mother brought the prepared food to Qi Xuan's room, and the three of them ate around the table.
Mother Jiang talked to Qi Xuan from time to time, but Jiang Shan just focused on eating and didn't even dare to raise his head...
"Hey kid, eat slowly! Clean up after dinner. Your sister Xuan and I will keep you company tonight. Your ankle is sprained, so it's inconvenient for you to do anything."
"Sister, that's too much trouble! I feel so sorry for causing you so much trouble!" Qi Xuan said quickly.
"It's okay! If your elder sister is alone at home, you can't just look at her! We should help each other, so don't be polite!" Jiang's mother comforted her with a smile.
"I'll go back and wash Jiangshan's school uniform and come back later. Bring the quilt as well." Jiang's mother said as she added more food to Qi Xuan's plate.
"You have something else to do at home, so you don't need to come over in the evening. I can do it myself!" Qi Xuan spoke again.
"Then...how about I stay here to take care of Sister Xuan?" Jiang Shan said timidly.
Suddenly there was silence at the dinner table.
Seeing that no one responded for a long time, Jiang Shan looked up and saw Jiang's mother looking at him in surprise with food in her mouth.
Sister Xuan blushed, looked at Jiang Shan in reproach, and wrinkled her nose...
"Haha, what are you talking about? I was just joking. I was just joking..." Jiang Shan ate his meal in big mouthfuls, thinking to himself, what's the big deal? What's the big deal about taking care of a woman going to the toilet? I just saw everything I should and shouldn't have seen... What's the point of looking a few more times...
After dinner, Jiang Shan had just left Sister Xuan's house with his bowl in his hand when his mother grabbed Jiang Shan's ear and dragged him into her own house.
"You little brat, I'm warning you, don't have any bad ideas! Do you hear me?"
"Mom, what are you talking about? Besides, you yourself gave birth to your own son, don't you know it clearly?" Jiang Shan replied bitterly.
"I'm warning you because I know you too well! I'm telling you! Whether now or in the future, if you dare to find a stepmother, I will never forgive you!"
"What stepmother? What are you talking about?" Jiang Shan wanted to bang his head against the wall.
"You're too old and it won't work! Just give up on this thought!" Jiang's mother said unceremoniously and went to wash the dishes.
Didn't you find the mature women's movies stored in my computer? Didn't you find the magazines under my bed? They were all from when I was in junior high school.
You know, I'm 25 years old and reborn. I'm not a child anymore!
Jiangshan wanted to bang his head against the wall. He was young and ignorant, and he had to bear the bad reputation for so many years. Hey, shaking his head, Jiangshan returned to his room...
The next morning, Jiangshan walked to school with his schoolbag. The vague and unreal contact with Sister Xuan yesterday afternoon made Jiangshan's heart feel like a flood. He tossed and turned all night and couldn't sleep well. Those slender legs and the seductive and fragrant flesh-colored stockings seemed to float in front of his eyes.
This is really a demon! Jiang Shan secretly despised himself in his heart. He had never touched a woman in his previous life, but after being reborn, he was so thirsty...
As usual, when Jiangshan entered the classroom, most of the students in the class had already arrived.
"Hey, buddy, you're awesome! You actually skipped class while making a phone call! Do you know how mad Teacher Ling was?" Deng Jie turned around excitedly and said while lying on Jiang Shan's desk.
The students around him also pricked up their ears and looked at Jiangshan.
After all, Jiangshan is the first person in the class to skip classes so blatantly.
"Something happened at home. I've informed the principal!" Jiang Shan said lightly.
"I thought you were out on a date! What happened at home? Is it about Han Chong?"
"No...it's been resolved! By the way, have you heard any news about Han Chong?" Jiang Shan came suddenly and asked casually.
"I don't know! I heard from the class teacher that the school will probably punish him, maybe even expel him!" Deng Jie said happily, looking relieved.
"Are we really going to expel him? Han Chong's family isn't well off. His father is a shoe repairman, and his mother is blind..." A classmate wearing glasses who was leaning against Jiang Shan on the other side whispered.
Seeing Jiang Shan looking at him curiously, the man with glasses said quickly: "We were classmates in junior high school, everyone knows it! In order to let him study, his father sold the house. Who knew that he would be so unpromising to his father..."
Jiangshan nodded and said nothing.
"I don't think he will be fired." Jiang Shan smiled at the man with glasses and said.
Yang Tianli, who had been staring at Jiang Shan, could no longer sit still when he saw that Jiang Shan had not been looking at him. He stood up angrily and walked over.
Yang Tianli looked very bad, his hair was a little messy, his eyes were dull, and he had completely lost his former vigor.
"What's wrong, squad leader? Do you have any more instructions?" Jiang Shan asked with his arms around his shoulders and a slight smile.
"Jiangshan... I'm sorry about what happened yesterday." Yang Tianli said with a pitiful look.
Although the voice was not loud, the classroom was completely silent when Yang Tianli stood up and walked towards Jiang Shan. The words of apology were clearly heard by every student.
Is this still the Yang Tianli who is so arrogant and proud every day? Is this the Yang Tianli who is so arrogant and doesn't take anyone seriously?
"There's nothing to feel sorry for. It's all over! We're still in the same classroom, so we're still classmates!" Jiang Shan said calmly.
"To express my apology, I will treat you to lunch at noon. My mother will also come and apologize to you in person..." Yang Tianli tried for a long time and said awkwardly.
"Sorry, I don't have time!" Jiang Shan said, shaking his head slightly.
"Then evening is fine! Otherwise, when are you free? These days..." Yang Tianli murmured in a slightly pleading tone.
"You must be very busy these days! Please thank your mother for me. As for the meal, forget it!" Jiang Shan said with a pout, looking at Yang Tianli.
Yang Tianli repeatedly suppressed his grief and anger, looked at Jiangshan through his bloodshot glasses, and said sadly: "Jiangshan, I beg you! We are all classmates. Please show some mercy..."
"I don't know what you are talking about!" Jiang Shan interrupted Yang Tianli mercilessly, stood up and said, "Do you have anything else to say? If not, please move aside, I need to leave!"
"You..." Yang Tianli pointed at Jiangshan while trembling all over, but reason told him that he had to put aside his usual arrogance at this moment, otherwise, there would be no hope for his father.
"Jiangshan... listen to me. This incident is really my fault. I solemnly apologize to you. If you hit me, I will never fight back. Do whatever you want to vent your anger." Yang Tianli took a deep breath and said word by word.
Years of pride vanished in an instant. The pampered and arrogant Yang Tianli realized at this moment that when his father's protection was gone, he was really useless. "I have something else to do." Jiang Shan said, and stood up and walked out.
Just as he walked to the podium, two boys near the door stood up and blocked Jiangshan's way.
