Chapter 24:

After November, the autumn of the year in City N passed so quietly, and the deciduous trees on both sides of the road were completely bare. The temperature drops sharply, the air is dry and cold, and the hardest season of the four seasons has arrived.
It has been more than three months since Zhang Man was reborn.
In the monthly exam in early December, she took a lot of seriousness. This time, the physics scores of the next few exams are very important, and the class teacher will select students who participate in physics competitions in the second year of high school.
Zhang Man calculated it clearly in his heart that Li Wei had already made up her lessons for more than three months. It was only natural that she had made a lot of progress compared to before, and he would not doubt him.
So she basically let go of writing. Except for the last more complicated topic, which is still empty, the others have done a lot of work.
Sure enough, after the results came out, she made a small sensation in the class again. She was a person who failed when she first entered the school. She even passed the physics test paper with a perfect score of 120 in her early 100s. Even the head teacher Liu Zhijun also paid attention to her Woke up, took the initiative to ask her to go to the office, praised and encouraged her in person.
When Zhang Man came back from the office, he happily put the physics test paper on the boy's desk, cupped his cheeks in his hands, and looked at him with bright eyes, wanting to be praised by him.
The boy finished the paper, glanced at where she lost points, and frowned slightly.
"The last question, I did something similar last time in the make-up class, and you did it right."
Zhang Man took a look at the test paper, and it was really the last one.
Oops, when she took the exam, she didn't pay attention to what the last question was. She thought it must be a very complicated problem, so she left it blank.
She turned her mind quickly, smirked, and forcibly explained: "I'm still not proficient. I also thought this topic was familiar at the time, but I didn't remember how to do it."
The boy nodded and stopped embarrassing her.
Zhang Man changed the subject: "Li Wei, do you want to participate in physics competitions later. How do you think I am learning? Can I go with you? I think physics seems to be quite fun recently."
The boy took a serious look at her, as if he was evaluating whether she was serious.
Zhang Man immediately sat upright, folded his hands properly, and looked very sincere: "I mean it, you see, my total score is the tail of the crane in our class. If you take the college entrance examination, it will be one at most. One book, if you learn to compete, you might still have a chance."
The boy said softly after hearing this: "It will be very tired."
"I'm not afraid. Next time I go to your house, will you teach me to do the competition questions? I have checked them. The high school competition covers college mechanics, electromagnetics and thermals. Shall we start with college mechanics?"
The teenager pondered for a while, maybe thinking about the feasibility of this matter, and nodded for a while: "Okay."
. ...
When he returned home that day, Zhang Man found that Zhang Huifang was not at home again. There was a supper for her on the table, and a note was posted to let her go to bed earlier.
She has returned more and more late lately.
Zhang Man has doubts in his heart, doesn't she already know Zheng Zhi?
She panicked and calmed herself down. While sitting down to eat supper, I carefully thought about some points in the previous life.
She still remembered that the first time Zhang Huifang brought Zheng Zhi home in her previous life was in January, a winter with heavy snow. At that time, she had already had a fight with Li Wei. She was depressed and unhappy all day long. She was not interested in her studies, and she didn't care about Zhang Huifang's various behaviors.
But why was there an impression that day?
When Zheng Zhi came, he brought a lot of things to the house and bought a new mobile phone for Zhang Man.
Zhang Man remembered that he was very tall, and he was extraordinarily elegant and handsome among the big-bellied middle-aged man. When the two of them first entered the door, they were covered in snow. Zheng couldn't take care of himself. First, he raised his hand and carefully patted the snow on Zhang Huifang's head and shoulders. The movements were very gentle.
That action made Zhang Man invisibly recognized him in her heart. She felt that such a gentle person is at least a good person.
But she did not expect that his appearance was too deceptive, not only deceived Zhang Huifang, but also deceived her. And that man really knows how to pretend, he looks so gentle and full of gentleman's demeanor, in fact, in his bones is a complete rubbish.
. ...
In other words, it is December and Zhang Huifang may already know Zheng Zhi, perhaps in the early stages of the relationship development.
Zhang Man's nails squeezed the heart of her hand fiercely. It seemed that she had to pay attention during this period, and she had to separate them.
Zhang Huifang didn't come back until eleven that night, her face was slightly dull, and she took off her boots and walked in, humming happily when she entered the door. Zhang Man sat on the sofa and watched the TV. When she walked in, he watched her look carefully.
It seems that eight or nine are not far from ten, and the joy and gentleness on Zhang Huifang's face can't deceive anyone. She had this expression on her face when she took Zheng Zhi home in her previous life.
"Zhang Man? Why are you still up?"
She took off her coat and hung it behind the door, stretched her neck and glanced at the dining table.
"Supper finished? Good, I have to get up early for class tomorrow, go to bed."
She was in a good mood, and even her tone of voice was softer.
Zhang Huifang beckoned and drove her into the room, and then made the phone call in a soft voice.
. ...
The next day, when Zhang Man went to school, he told Li Wei that he might have something else on Saturday and could not go to his home to make up classes, and told him not to wait for her.
The boy stopped the pen in his hand, his voice a little hesitant: "...I'm sick again?"
His keen logic and her seem to be unable to coexist.
Zhang Man was amused by him, and was overjoyed: "Who has an appointment to be sick? I really have something, family affairs."
The boy nodded and stopped asking.

On Saturday, Zhang Man waited at home for a day and didn't see Zhang Huifang go out, so he was a little confused.
But think about it, most of the dates are at night, and she waits patiently until the evening.
About seven o'clock, Zhang Man first told Zhang Huifang that he was going shopping with Chen Feier, and went downstairs to a cafe in front of his house.
She ordered a latte and sat on the deck by the window wearing a peaked cap. The floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the coffee shop are directly facing the door of their home, and you can clearly see the heads of households coming in and out.
Sure enough, about half an hour later, Zhang Huifang left. She drew heavy smoky makeup, and dressed very delicately. A straight black woolen coat with a belt of the same color, neat and free. The camel-colored fishtail tight-fitting sweater dress was exposed at the hem, and ten-centimeter high-heeled shoes that I didn't usually wear were also stepped on under my feet.
In winter in a crowd of down jackets and big padded jackets, she looks really slender.
As she walked, she was calling someone, as if she was talking about where to meet.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Man walked out of the cafe and followed her, and saw her reaching out and stopping a taxi.
Zhang Man immediately got into the next car.
"Master, please follow the car ahead."
After arriving at the place, Zhang Man knew that Zhang Huifang turned out to be a bar in N City. It was not the kind of literary bar, but the upright Bungee Club. She saw Zhang Huifang from a distance taking a man's arm at the door and walking into the bar.
Zhang Man's heart sank.
Although she couldn't see her face clearly, she would never forget her height, back figure, and the pretentious walking posture. It must be Zheng Zhi.
She followed in, but was stopped by the security guard at the door.
"Little girl, please show your ID card. Minors cannot enter."
Minors can't enter the bar? She really didn't know. When she was a high school teacher in her previous life, she went to the bar to catch some students who skipped class to go to the dick.
But no matter what Zhang Man said, the security just refused to enter, so she had to give up.
The early winter in N City was very cold, not because of how low the temperature was, but because of the wind. The dry and cold sea breeze made her cheeks hurt.
The seaside city is like this, the temperature difference between day and night is very big, no one can bear the sea breeze at night.
Standing at the door and blowing the wind for a while, Zhang Man was still unwilling. It was only eight o'clock and there were not many people in the bar. She sat on the steps of the back door, wanting to wait for a while to get in when there were too many people.
. ...
Sitting in the study, Li Wei finished reading the last page of the fourth section of Guangxiang, stood up and went to the restaurant to pour himself a glass of water. He has never had the habit of boiling water, even in winter, he always bought pure water and put it in the refrigerator. The moment he opened the refrigerator door, the chill came out, causing him to shiver.
He suddenly felt that the house was empty.
She was absent all day today, and he stayed at home alone for a day, so he was a little uncomfortable.
Since she came to his home on time every week to make up lessons and cook for him, it seems that he hasn't stayed at home for such a long time.
Moreover, she didn't text him today.
He adjusted the phone to vibrate and put it in the chest pocket of his pajamas, but there was no movement all day.
The boy took out a bottle of water, unscrewed the cap, held the bottle with his slender fingers, and took a sip of water with his head up.
He felt that it was necessary to ask her if she would come tomorrow.
Zhang Man was sitting at the door waiting trembling, and suddenly received a call from Li Wei.
She wanted to ask him what was going on, but the signal at the entrance of the bar was not very good, and there was a clear electric noise from the phone, she stood up and walked a little farther.
The teenager heard a very noisy car whistle on her side, as well as bustling people, she was outside. He frowned, raised his left hand and glanced at his watch. It was past eight o'clock.
It suddenly occurred to my mind that she was blocked by someone at the corner of the alley. His heart suddenly tightened at that moment, and the whole person got up from the seat, walked forward two steps anxiously, and his voice became lower: " Zhang Man, where are you?"
Zhang Man's hand stretched out from his sleeve to hold the mobile phone, and it became red from the cold for a while, and the skin of the epidermis was in contact with the cold air, as if a thin needle was stuck: "I'm outside, what's wrong?"
Hearing her voice, the young man squeezed his palm and quietly let go: "It's fine."
Zhang Man looked at the door of the bar: "Hey, Li Wei? I ask you, do you know how the minors in N City can get in? That bar is called "Ye Yu", not far from your house."
"Why are you going there?"
The boy's voice was a bit tough.
"I have to go in if I have something to do, but the security at the door just won't let me in."
This time the boy was quiet for a long time: "You are waiting for me at the door."
Zhang Man hung up the phone and continued to sit on the steps of the side door of the bar with his arms folded. The cold air kept her awake, her whole body curled into a ball, rubbing hands to keep warm.
Fortunately, Li Wei did not let her wait long.
The young man's slender figure is very conspicuous in the crowd. He is standing across the road waiting for the traffic lights. Behind him is the dark night and various light strips at the entrances of several bars.
He was wearing a thick coat with his hands in his pockets, and he looked warm, his brows wrinkled slightly when he saw her, as if he was blaming her for coming out alone at night.
This street is the famous bar street in N City. Every night, a nightlife of feasting and drunken fans begins.
There are all kinds of pedestrians at the bar, beautifully dressed girls, young men in neat suits, and resident singers with sloppy beards holding a guitar... But the simple clothes of the teenagers are particularly conspicuous among such a group of people.
Zhang Man couldn't help but stared blankly.
The boy she likes is really beautiful. Even if she has known him for so long, every time she sees him for the first time, she still blushes involuntarily.
--"follow me."
After crossing the road, the boy didn't say much, turned around and walked towards the front door, said a word to the security guard at the door, and then turned around and waved at her.
Zhang Man followed behind him and entered the bar smoothly.
She was a little puzzled. Li Wei was also a minor, and he didn't look older than her. Why didn't the security stop him?
But the top priority is not to entangle this matter. Zhang Man grabbed Li Wei's sleeve and hid behind him, tilted his head and showed only a pair of eyes, looking around for Zhang Huifang's figure.
Except for the few times when she arrested students in her previous life, she never came to the overnight shop, and it was...noisy. On the stage, there was a DJ with prominent drumbeats and bright rhythm dance music. The same melody continued to circulate. The low frequency music was deafening. The heavy drum beat made Zhang Man's eardrums swell, and his heart began to feel a little uncomfortable.
But the restless young people in the middle of the dance floor obviously didn't care.
As long as there is music, they can start the carnival.
Such hustle and bustle can give people the illusion of not being alone. Just like alcohol, you don’t have to think if you numb your mind.
But not everyone dances. Many people sit alone or with friends and order a few drinks.
It was very hot in the bar, and the two took off their jackets and found a deck in the corner to sit down.
Zhang Man hid behind the boy and kept looking around. He soon found Zhang Huifang and Zheng Zhi at the bar. The two were sitting very close, drinking and chatting, talking and laughing.
She looked at their actions, although they were familiar but not too close, she speculated in her heart that the two were still in an ambiguous stage at this time, and there was no confirmation of the relationship.
So, how can we disturb the relationship between the two at this stage?
Li Wei found the girl hiding behind him as soon as he entered the bar, constantly poking her head, frowning and looking serious.
He followed her gaze and saw a woman in a mature and gentle dress, in her early thirties, who was very beautiful.
Looking at the profile, it seems to be similar to her.
He wanted to ask her what she was doing in the bar. When she turned around, the sleeve of the sweater touched her face, which was peeking out. The slight pressure made her soft face deform for a moment. He remembered the smooth and soft touch when he raised his hand to dust her face after removing the plaster in the hospital.
The nerves on the fingers of the left hand seemed to have memories, and suddenly it was a little numb.
The girl grasped his sleeves tightly and kept staring at the bar counter, her expression indistinct, but her voice a little anxious.
"Li Wei, look over there. The woman in the camel dress is my... mother. The one next to her is her new boyfriend. He is not a good person. Can you think of a way to break them up for me?"
She frowned, her mouth pursed slightly, and the flesh on her cheek moved when she spoke.
It looks easy to pinch.
The boy's eyes were dim, and his Adam's apple rolled up and down.
"Hey, did you listen to me?"
Seeing that he didn't answer, Zhang Man repeated it again.
The young man came back to his senses, asked a few words carefully, and thought of a way.
. ...
Zhang Man listened to Li Wei's instructions and went outside the bar to call Zhang Huifang.
Zhang Huifang was chatting with Zheng Zhi and felt the phone vibrate. When he picked it up, it was Zhang Man. The bar was too noisy to answer the phone, she said to Zheng Zhi, got up and went to the bathroom.
"Hello, Zhang Man? What's wrong?"
"Have you seen my physics book? I will use it tomorrow, I can't find it."
Zhang Huifang was a little strange: "Didn't you put all your books? I didn't see it. You looked for it in the room."
"Then... where did you put the skirt you gave me that time? I might still be useful."
"It's in the drawer on the lower left of my wardrobe, look at it."
"...I didn't find it, did you remember it wrong."
"..."
According to what Zhang Man said before, delay as much as possible.
When Zhang Huifang was a little impatient by her question, she hung up, sneaked in, sat next to Li Wei, and looked in Zheng Zhi's direction.
She rubbed her eyes.
Zheng Zhi even flirted with a coquettish woman while Zhang Huifang was away. The woman was very beautiful, she looked like she was in her early twenties, and she was in very good shape. At this moment, she smiled tremblingly, twisted and twisted when she spoke, and even stuck to Zheng Zhi's body.
Zheng Zhi was not idle either, his hand gently wrapped around her waist, and he showed her a gentle and gentle smile, and the eyes under the golden silk frame were slightly narrowed.
Obviously, the woman who came up on the initiative is always willing to come.
Zhang Man cried out inwardly.
No wonder Li Wei took out his wallet just now. It turned out that he hired someone to talk to Zheng Zhi.
Wonderful, now that Zheng Zhi and Zhang Huifang are not together, he is such a person, and when he meets a woman younger and beautiful than her, he takes the initiative to hook up, how can he care about Zhang Huifang.
Sure enough, Zhang Huifang also saw this scene when she came back from the bathroom. She fluffed up her long hair, stood silent for a while, and laughed softly. She stood there and laughed for a while, walked over, and now they were silent in front of them.
The young girl glanced at her, not caring at all, and continued to clink glasses with Zheng Zhi.
And Zheng Zhi was stunned when he saw her. He didn't even stop flirting with the young girl, pretending that he didn't know her at all. The scum character was undoubtedly revealed.
Zhang Huifang smiled at the girl, pulled her away, raised her wine glass gracefully, poured a glass of red wine on Zheng Zhi’s disgusting face, then turned around and stepped on ten-centimeter high heels, flicking her hair, and picked up her bag chicly Go outside the bar.
Zhang Man looked eagerly, clapped his hands in applause, and the smile on the corner of his mouth almost couldn't hold back. With Zhang Huifang's temperament, it's impossible to look back if this happens.
As expected of Zhang Huifang, well done! She held her cheeks, her heart relaxed a lot, but she didn't expect this matter to be solved so easily.
She didn't have the time to see Zheng Zhi who was splashed with red wine and was in shock with her mouth open. Instead, she tried to observe Zhang Huifang's back.
She walked very steadily, and she seemed not to be sad. Zhang Man was grateful again. Fortunately, she found out early. If she really waited for Zhang Huifang to be with him and sink deep, I'm afraid things would not be so easy.
It may be that Zhang Man's gaze was too focused, Zhang Huifang seemed to feel something, and looked back in this direction.
Zhang Man glanced at her unexpectedly, startled, and quickly turned sideways and hugged the young man sitting beside him, hugged tightly, and buried his face deeply in his arms.
It seems that you can hide yourself in this way.
She buried him nervously on his chest and whispered: "Don't talk, see if my mother is gone at the door?"
Li Wei was stunned.
It was different from when she was crying in his arms that time, when he was busy comforting her and didn't pay much attention.
But this time, every nerve in his body reminded him that she was in his arms now.
The girl's body temperature and heartbeat were very clearly conveyed to his chest through the thin sweater, her two hands were behind him, and he was tightly looped, and the two of them approached seamlessly.
The darkness around him made his senses extremely keen. The bar was so noisy, the dull drumbeats and the screaming and cheering of young men and women were deafening, but at this moment, the teenager clearly heard his violent heartbeat.
"Boom, boom, boom..." His heart beats as fast as the sound of the drum beats.
His sense of smell was extremely keen at this moment, and he smelled the fragrance of her origin, and the scent of milk on her body.
Her body was so soft, she hugged him so tightly against his hard chest, making him feel a burst of boiling blood on her head, and her scalp began to numb.
The nerve in the temple began to beat violently again, but this time it was not a restlessness, but a feeling he couldn't suppress. Ten thousand ants crawled past the apex of his heart, gnawing him, and it seemed that he could not be relieved without doing anything.
People who are more disciplined will have evil thoughts.
So he raised his hands, put one hand behind her, and one hand pressed the back of her head, pressing her closer to him.
It wasn't until he pressed her whole body into his arms and put her chin on the top of her hair lightly, that the intoxicating itch in his heart was relieved a little.
The young man looked at the door of the empty bar, was guided by the devil in his heart, and lied in a hoarse voice: "Don't move, she hasn't left yet."
-Naturally like a habitual offender.
