The Burden of the 00s (13)

What does a fifteen-year-old boy look like?

In the eyes of many people, male students of this age are not as chubby as six- or seven-year-old boys, nor are they as fresh, handsome and not greasy as seventeen- or eighteen-year-old students.

Fifteen is the most rebellious time for a child, and it is also the time when the body is growing up. Because it is growing rapidly, it is inevitable that it looks a little thin. Coupled with the rebellious temperament and heavy study, children of this age can be seen as handsome.

But Duan Qingen completely broke this.

Maybe it was because he skipped grades and lived with classmates who were many years older than him since childhood, or maybe it was because he was a well-known genius. The fifteen-year-old Duan Qingen's words and deeds looked like a mature adult.

Even his stature looked better than his peers.

At least he didn't look immature when he mixed in with his college classmates, but he could fit in just right.

This university itself is a school full of geniuses. It seems that the number of geniuses produced during this period is very large. At least in Duan Qingen's department, there are five students who are also less than seventeen years old.

Maybe classmates occasionally talk about them, but in fact, everyone is busy every day. This period is the period when the country is developing most vigorously and needs talents the most. In addition, Duan Qingen's school and his department are special. Almost everyone is studying books every day, or going to the laboratory to do experiments under the guidance of teachers.

Of course, there are spring feelings, but love at this time does not need too much time. Going to class together and eating together in the cafeteria are already a good way for students in their school to fall in love.

Although Duan Qingen's age is a bit of a drag, his conversation, his knowledge, and his various brilliant deeds (he can do experiments alone at a young age and has made contributions to the country), etc., still make many students who yearn for knowledge have a good impression of him.

However, after all kinds of confessions, Duan Qingen always refuses.

Fortunately, he has always been a gentleman, and even if he refuses, he is always polite and never embarrasses the girl.

The reason for the refusal has always been very simple. He is obsessed with studying and has no intention of falling in love.

When a girl boldly said that it was okay not to fall in love now, she could wait for him to graduate, Duan Qingen said that after graduation he would concentrate on research and development, and would not consider love and marriage for 20 years.

Twenty years, which girl can wait.

They just thought that Duan Qingen was looking for reasons to let them give up. Few students who can be admitted to this university have love brains. They are academic masters and have their own dignity. Duan Qingen has refused to this extent, so they naturally cannot pursue him relentlessly.

So when he was promoted to sophomore, the new juniors and juniors knew that there was a senior who was younger than them and was a genius.

And he was a genius who was obsessed with studying and had no intention of falling in love.

Gradually, Duan Qingen's peach blossoms disappeared. After all, everyone knew that he didn't fall in love, and the girls who were also academic masters would not lower their status and keep chasing him.

However, when the school season started, there were still unconvinced juniors who tried to pursue him.

Duan Qingen rejected a junior high school girl again today downstairs in the dormitory, and he used the same reason again. His roommate was used to it, and waited patiently for him to reject him in a gentle voice. The junior high school girl left again, and then he came forward and bumped Duan Qingen's shoulder.

"I say, why don't you just tell them that you have someone in your heart?"

Duan Qingen was still holding a book in his hand. He raised his eyebrows when he heard this, tilted his head and looked at his roommate and asked: "What do you mean by someone in your heart?"

"It's your childhood sweetheart. You guys are so diligent in communicating with each other, and you still say you are not interested in her?"

The roommate had a look on his face that said "Don't hide it from me, I see through it all", and smiled and said: "Next time, just say that you have someone in your heart, I guarantee that these seniors and juniors will all leave, it will save a lot of trouble."

Duan Qingen reluctantly stretched out his hand and pushed him: "Don't talk nonsense, we grew up together, and we are like siblings."

"But you guessed half right, I do have someone in my heart."

The roommate was just joking at first, but now seeing that he actually admitted it, his eyes widened, his face full of disbelief and curiosity; "Who is it? Can a talented man like you who is devoted to learning fall in love with her? I talk to her every day How come you don't know about it when we go in and out together?"

The fair-skinned boy, with handsome features, holding a book and standing there like a gentleman in a painting, smiled: "Not only do I have someone in my heart, but you also know it."

"I know her?"

The roommate was even more curious: "What's the situation? I stay with you every day, and I don't see you treat anyone differently."

"Don't laugh, tell me quickly!"

Duan Qingen: "Do you want to know?"

The roommate nodded repeatedly: "I want to!"

The handsome boy shrugged: "Okay, then I'll tell you."

After that, he handed over the book in his arms: "Take it."

The roommate didn't think much, and quickly took it, looking at him eagerly; "Qingen, can you tell me now? Don't keep me in suspense."

From the time he entered school to now, Duan Qingen, who has rejected countless beauties, actually has someone he likes. This news is too curious.

Duan Qingen: "You are holding it now."

Roommate: "I am holding it, I am holding it..."

He muttered while subconsciously lowering his head, and then his eyes fell on the pile of books in his hands.

Roommate: "..."

Roommate; "Duan Qingen!!"

When he found out that he was rejected, he looked up angrily, and found that the person in front of him had already run into the dormitory building.

"Duan Qingen, stop right there! Duan Qingen!"

The two of them went upstairs while playing, and as soon as they entered the dormitory, the roommate immediately followed the other roommates to accuse Duan Qingen of various behaviors.

He himself sat at the table and started writing letters.

He did correspond with Zheng Yuxuan frequently, but the two of them were indeed as Duan Qingen said, pure and innocent without any ambiguity, purely a friendship.

This is not to say that they are not close. In fact, their childhood experiences and the correspondence over the years have made them almost closer than biological siblings.

There are two reasons why they did not develop into a romantic relationship.

First, Duan Qingen did not have this idea.

Second, Zheng Yuxuan did not have this idea either.

Zheng Yuxuan, who is about to turn sixteen, is in high school. It is a bit too early to fall in love at this age, but perhaps because the classmates around her are almost secretly in love, Zheng Yuxuan, who is still in her teenage years, has a crush on someone.

She and Duan Qingen have always been close friends, and she can easily write to this childhood sweetheart in the letter about things that she can't say to her parents.

Therefore, Duan Qingen also knows who her childhood sweetheart has a crush on.

A high school student who is good at sports and has a good personality even though his grades are not very good.

According to what Zheng Yuxuan wrote in the letter, she liked this boy because there was blood on her clothes once. At that time, she was walking on the street with strangers and no one reminded her. She walked all the way without noticing until this boy came forward and took off his school uniform jacket and asked her to tie it around her waist.

Zheng Yuxuan wrote this paragraph vaguely, but Duan Qingen still guessed that she had her period and the blood was stained behind her.

However, Zheng Yuxuan wrote very detailed descriptions of the person she had a crush on.

The focus was on the other person's strong arms, abdominal muscles, tall figure, and sunny and handsome smile.

Duan Qingen was not surprised. After all, because of family relationships, Zheng Yuxuan preferred muscular types since childhood, thinking that this would give her a sense of security.

She was a good kid. On one hand, she thought, "Ah, I like him so much and I want to be with him," but on the other hand, she insisted on "high school studies are the most important, we can talk about anything in college." She was in a conflict almost every day.

So, she and Duan Qingen began to communicate frequently again, and Duan Qingen, a childhood friend who had been writing books since childhood and was very good at handling delicate emotions, was basically responsible for listening to her talk about all kinds of girlish thoughts.

He didn't think it was troublesome, Zheng Yuxuan was indeed a very cute girl.

She contacted Wang Xiuhong more.

Wang Xiuhong opened a clothing store early. At first, she sold some clothes with styles she thought of herself. Later, because of the novel styles and solid materials, she had a good reputation there.

Soon, she didn't buy real estate or anything like that after making enough money, but opened another chain store.

Then, one store after another opened.

When Duan Qingen was in the second year of high school, he suggested that his mother consider registering a company to launch an original brand. Wang Xiuhong has always listened to her son. When Duan Qingen said this, she immediately started to develop in the direction of a formal company without hesitation.

Now it has developed very well. Specifically, Wang Xiuhong, who used to devote almost all her body and mind to her family, now looks like a strong woman.

Managing a company that is not particularly large but not small, she makes a lot of money every day. Her temperament has gradually changed. She no longer speaks as cautiously or in a negotiating tone as before, and looks very vigorous.

In junior high school, Zheng Yuxuan began to draw some clothing styles she came up with and sent them to Wang Xiuhong at the suggestion of Duan Qingen. After Wang Xiuhong adopted them, she paid according to the price of each painting.

She didn't give much, it was at a normal price, but for the Zheng family, this money was enough to improve their family environment.

Because she helped her family and did not delay her studies, Zheng Yuxuan's temperament gradually became more cheerful. She was grateful to Wang Xiuhong. Wang Xiuhong also needed to know some things about young people because of this industry, so the two of them began to communicate frequently.

Duan Qingen was not interested in the clothing industry and devoted herself to studying. Although she could occasionally make some suggestions, she and Wang Xiuhong had more common topics than Zheng Yuxuan, who almost paid attention to clothing issues all the time except for studying.

He felt that Zheng Yuxuan would become his adopted sister sooner or later.

It was not him who recognized her, but Wang Xiuhong who recognized her daughter.

In this case, it would be okay for a brother to pay attention to his sister's emotional life.

When Zheng Yuxuan's letter came today, Duan Qingen sounded the alarm in his heart after reading it.

Zheng Yuxuan is in the third year of high school. When she was in junior high school, she accumulated strength and skipped a grade.

Now she is preparing for the college entrance examination with all her heart.

When she wrote to Duan Qingen before, she was particularly proud to tell him that she had found out which school the person she liked wanted to study, and it happened to be the school she wanted to go to. If nothing unexpected happened, the two of them would still go to the same university.

Then Zheng Yuxuan could pursue her love without any scruples.

Duan Qingen had no objection to her pursuit of love, but he also specifically stated that they had to wait until they were adults before having physical contact, otherwise he would sue the parents.

Obviously, whether it was elementary school students or high school students, suing the parents was a very effective trick, and Zheng Yuxuan immediately said that she would absolutely listen to Duan Qingen.

The reason why Duan Qingen raised the alarm was also very simple.

Zheng Yuxuan complained in the letter that a junior student came to the first grade of high school. He was a rich second-generation and seemed to like her. He pestered her every day and said some strange things. She refused and it didn't work.

"He is just a little brat. He is arrogant every day. He seems to be very proud of the money at home. He follows me when I buy a bottle of water. I told him that I am not interested in him, but he still doesn't listen. It's annoying."

These are Zheng Yuxuan's original words.

Yes, for her who has been skipping grades and living with the third-year students, the first-year students are little brats.

It can be seen that she is very irritable.

High school students, especially those in the third year of high school, don't have much time for other activities besides studying. Zheng Yuxuan's greatest pleasure after finishing the test paper every day is to sit on the basketball court and watch the person she likes play basketball.

As a result, now there is a follower. Let alone going to the basketball court, even if she goes to the women's bathroom, this person will bring a group of people who are also little brats, waiting outside the bathroom with a look of "I am very awesome".

After reading it, Duan Qingen was very sure that this was the rich second generation who ruined Zheng Yuxuan's life in the plot.

But this life is different from the plot.

Although Zheng Yuxuan still moved with her parents according to her original fate, because of skipping grades, she was a genius in the eyes of her new classmates. Even if she was a transfer student, everyone would be happy to approach her in a friendly manner.

And she started to make money in junior high school, which directly improved the environment at home. Wang Xiuhong also said that she had a good talent and could come to work in her own company after graduation. After accumulating experience, she could try to create her own original brand.

Although she is still in school, she has the ability to make money, and if nothing unexpected happens, she doesn't have to worry about the future. Zheng Yuxuan has full confidence in her heart, and this confidence also prompts her to become a more independent person.

In addition, she has always been with people older than herself, and she is much more mature than she was at this time in the original plot.

In the original plot, this rich second generation's behavior would make her feel scared and panicked, and she would not dare to offend the other party too much even if she refused.

But now.

Why should she, a senior, be so polite to the persistent junior?

The little brat is not a good boy. He said he would refuse but still did this. It was so annoying that she was so desperate that she went to his class teacher to complain.

Zheng Yuxuan, who had this idea, did not take this unclear junior seriously and just complained about it from time to time.

But Duan Qingen did not ignore it like her.

This rich second generation is really unclear. He will not dare to do anything just because Zheng Yuxuan is his senior.

Since Zheng Yuxuan sent him this letter now, it is estimated that it will not be long before the rich second generation tries to force himself on her.

After receiving the letter, Duan Qingen stood up and opened the cabinet to pack up.

Seeing him like this, his roommate who was accusing him was stunned: "Qingen, what are you doing?"

"I'm taking a few days off, I have something to do."

"Ah? Something? What?"

In the time it took to say a few words, Duan Qingen had already stuffed his clothes into his bag. He directly put on the bag, smiled and patted his roommate's shoulder, and his tone was still gentle:

"Nothing, just going to beat someone up."

Roommate: "Oh, beat someone up... Beat up? What?"

Duan Qingen has already gone out.

Times are developing, and society is progressing.

It's too easy to go to the city where Zheng Yuxuan is, especially since Duan Qingen is not short of money now.

He arrived at dusk.

The time he arrived was just right.

He called Zheng Yuxuan's dormitory manager directly.

After a while, one of Zheng Yuxuan's roommates came down to answer the phone and replied.

"Yuxuan went out for dinner, and will probably be back at seven."

He had planned to wait outside for a while, but when he looked over, he saw a student who was obviously drunk and had a face full of "I am the best, I am the coolest" walking crookedly.

The student drank.

The expression was so annoying.

This guy must be the one.

The original plot did not say that the rich second generation acted after drinking, but this guy simply wrote the six words "I am going to do bad things" on his face.

He stood there with his bag on his back and thought for a second, and then followed decisively.

Duan Qingen's premonition came true, this rich second generation really had evil intentions.

If he failed to pursue her, he wanted to force her.

He still felt that he was quite wronged. Everyone could see how sincere he was in pursuing Zheng Yuxuan these days.

Zheng Yuxuan was not moved by this, was she heartless? !

Didn't he just follow her a little too closely? Zheng Yuxuan actually avoided him, as if he was some disgusting thing.

Can I stand it!

I can't stand it!

He drank, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that his sincerity was really wasted. While cursing, he went to the street where Zheng Yuxuan had been before.

He thought, didn't Zheng Yuxuan refuse to accept his feelings?

Then he would just make it a done deal, and he didn't believe that this wouldn't work. If Zheng Yuxuan still refused, he would threaten her, saying that they had both done that, and if she refused, she would be a slut.

The rich second generation, who felt that his plan was pretty good, thought it was a good idea.

Duan Qingen followed him with a gloomy look.

When they reached a small alley, he walked up to the rich second generation and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother, what are you thinking about? You're so happy."

The second-generation rich man tilted his head to look at him, but he was too drunk to recognize him, "Who are you?"

Duan Qingen laughed: "I was just passing by, and I heard you mumbling, so I came to ask."

Even though this second-generation rich man was drunk, his mind was still clear. He knew that he must not tell others what he wanted to do, so he kept his mouth shut.

Duan Qingen forced a wretched smile on his handsome face: "Tell me, were you thinking just now that the female classmate you mentioned was in this alley? There is no surveillance, no one is there, and no one will hear her even if she is called out."

The drunk man's mind was not clear, and seeing that he actually said what he thought, he admitted it readily; "So what, I just thought about it!"

He pointed to the alley that was a little dark as the sun gradually set: "It's so dark here, even if I really dragged her here, what if I don't say who I am, can she still know who I am?"

He thought he was thinking, but he didn't notice that Duan Qingen's eyes were getting colder and colder when he looked at him.

In the original plot, this person really did this.

He waited on the road that Zheng Yuxuan had to take to go back, dragged her in when it was dark, and wanted to do good things, but she struggled desperately.

It was obviously he who did something wrong, but the one who was punished was Zheng Yuxuan, a teenage girl.

Duan Qingen's eyes were cold, but his tone was very gentle, as if he agreed: "Yes, there are not many people around here, and there is no surveillance, and it is pitch black. If you don't say who you are, who would know it's you."

Hearing his tone of approval, this rich second generation was flattered.

"That's right. This woman is ungrateful. If she continues to do this, it will be easy for me to deal with her."

Duan Qingen; "Just because you like her doesn't mean she likes you too."

"Tsk."

Rich second generation: "She's just pretending to be noble."

He staggered forward a few steps, and suddenly remembered that he didn't know who the person he was chatting with was, so he turned around and asked: "By the way, who are you?"

Duan Qingen: "A passerby."

As he said that, before the other party could react, he stretched out his hand and dragged the rich second generation into a deeper alley.

"What the hell are you doing!!!"

Listening to the other party's words, Duan Qingen sneered: "I just saw that it was pitch black, there were no people, and there was no surveillance. Even if I did something, no one would find out, so I wanted to beat you up. Why are you screaming so loudly?"

Rich second generation: "Are you crazy? I have no grudge against you, why are you beating me!"

In the darkness, he heard the man who was holding him down suddenly punch him, accompanied by a sentence:

"I want to beat you, do I need your consent!"

"Why are you pretending to be noble? I can tell from this that you really want me to beat you."

Rich second generation: "What the hell are you talking about? Why do I want you to beat me, ah!!!"

Duan Qingen didn't say anything else, just beat him silently, and his fists fell on the other party, causing the rich second generation to scream several times.

At first he was still stubborn, but later he only struggled and begged for mercy. Duan Qingen didn't listen to him and continued to beat him at his own pace.

At the end of the fight, the opponent had huddled up in the dark alley.

He said in a trembling voice, "Just wait for me!! Just wait for me!!! I will definitely take revenge, do you know who I am! Do you know who my father is!!!"

Duan Qingen clapped his hands: "Fight with me for my father, do you know who I am?"

The rich second generation was stunned: "Who are you?"

In the dark, the man who beat him up said: "I won't tell you"

"Oh my, in this dark alley, you can't see my face clearly, if I don't tell you, do you know who I am?"

Rich second generation: "..."

After having a good fight, Duan Qingen kicked the opponent again and left here in a swagger.

So cool!
