    39 Chapter 39

    â—ŽAre you chasing me?â—Ž

    The tube of medicine Liang Ji’an brought was of great use tonight.

    Shen Lingjun twisted his body awkwardly to apply the medicine on himself. There were clear red marks on his buttocks, which were almost swollen like a peach. He couldn’t sit down or lie down, so he could only lie on the bed holding the quilt. Although he was a little sleepy, the cold and hot feeling of the ointment on his skin created a contradictory stimulation, which made him sleepless.

    In his mind, he scolded Liang Ji’an for being too harsh. Even though he would give him medicine every time to coax him, hitting someone was just a beating. Why did he never apologize!

    Besides, even if he made a mistake, is it right for Liang Jian to beat him?How can we implement stick education?Didn’t He Wen say that Liang Ji’an had a good temper and was not a traditional parent?

    Now it seems that they are more than traditional parents. They look cold and raise their hands, and they are no different from feudal old-fashioned parents!

    He is scared when he sees Liang Ji’an taking off his watch now. Even if he makes money in the future, he will never buy a watch for Liang Ji’an.

    His eyelids were so sore that Shen Lingjun stretched out his hand to rub them. He lay on the bed and squirmed like a caterpillar. Now he had really lost all his dignity in front of Liang Ji’an. He really hated his poor mouth. If he hadn’t drank those two glasses of water, he might not have been so embarrassed.

    His thoughts naturally turned to certain pictures, and Shen Lingjun subconsciously covered his eyes, but the pictures in his mind couldn’t get away. He thought about it seriously, and it seemed that… maybe… he didn’t feel disgusted either?

    Mainly just scared.

    Liang Jian is his brother after all.

    But he still felt a sense of crisis. After a while, Shen Lingjun made a decision. He would still keep a distance from Liang Ji’an in the future, including Ruan Jichuan and others.

    He just fell asleep in a daze.

    Liang Ji’an took two days off for him, but He Wen didn’t ask him to get up and go to school the next morning. It was late May, and there were only a few days left before the college entrance examination. He could only improve his score by studying. Liang Ji’an was a little surprised when he received his recent transcript. Shen Lingjun was gradually able to pass the mock exams these few times.

    Shen Lingjun slept on his stomach all night, and then he got up flat. He washed up with squinting eyes and went downstairs to eat. He Wen almost fainted from the shock of his face.

    While he waved his aunt to boil some eggs to rub on his face, he anxiously held Shen Lingjun’s face and looked at it for a long time, and finally asked cautiously: “Young Master, where did Mr. hit you yesterday? Why is your face swollen like this?”

    Shen Lingjun was afraid that He Wen would misunderstand Liang Ji’an, so he explained: “No, my brother didn’t slap me in the face, he slapped my butt.”

    He Wen’s face was complicated. He couldn’t imagine that Liang Ji’an would beat Shen Lingjun in this way of punishing a three-year-old child.

    It’s better to slap him in the face… As soon as this idea came up, He Wen stared at the bag on his forehead and said with a horrified expression: “Why is it so swollen here?”

    You can’t slap him in the face, you can’t slap him in the face, it would be a waste of money to have such a broken face.

    Shen Lingjun said sheepishly: “I accidentally knocked it.”

    He Wen helped him apply the medicine again. Shen Lingjun finished his breakfast standing and then went to the garden to eat.

    He couldn’t sit down now, so he could only walk around the house. He walked more than 15,000 steps in the old house in one day. He Wen persuaded him to take a rest. Shen Lingjun squatted by the lake and caught a handful of fish food to feed the fish, and cursed Liang Ji’an in his heart.

    Why does Liang Ji’an have such big hands?Do you have to slap him down and hit both sides of his flesh?It doesn’t matter if you do it evenly or just hit one side. He can sit on his side even if he sits!

    He wouldn’t be as comprehensively injured as he is now!

    But he could only think about these words in his heart. After all, hegemonism was not something he could overthrow by himself, not to mention that he had to rely on hegemonism to survive.

    When Liang Ji’an came back from the company in the evening, Shen Lingjun wanted to get closer and be a follower as usual, but in the end something seemed to stop him from taking a step forward. He just stood in the living room and greeted Liang Ji’an two or three steps away, “Brother, you are back.”

    Liang Ji’an responded. He seemed to want to go over and say something to Shen Lingjun, but he still paused. The two sat at the same dining table and finished dinner as usual.

    When this kind of unfamiliarity lasted for a day or two, He Wen just thought it was because Liang Ji’an beat Shen Lingjun and the young master was having trouble with him. But as time went by, this kind of unfamiliarity not only did not alleviate, but intensified.

    It’s not that Liang Jian doesn’t care about Shen Lingjun anymore, on the contrary, he is more concerned about Shen Lingjun’s affairs than before.

    Shen Lingjun didn’t even rely on others to complete the various documents and procedures for entering school. He took the time to do it all by himself. He even went to inspect the school dormitory environment twice.

    He Wen hesitated to speak, but in the end he didn’t ask any more questions.

    Liang Ji’an’s attitude actually changed following Shen Lingjun’s.

    He could see that Shen Lingjun was deliberately avoiding it, even if he hadn’t shown any real emotional deterioration, he was already scared.

    If he really said it, Shen Lingjun would probably scold him even more harshly than that night, and he might even pack up his bed and run away crying.

    He didn’t want that.

    The days passed like water. The four seasons were distinct in the old house, and the breath of summer was particularly strong. The green shade covered most of the windows in Shen Lingjun’s room. The windows were half pushed and half opened like a brightly colored oil painting. After finishing the exam, he lived here permanently, while Liang Jian lived in the house in the city for the convenience of work.

    We only see each other two or three times a week.

    Ruan Jichuan, on the other hand, ran to the old house when he had something to do. He Wen warmly welcomed the guest at the beginning and later became self-disciplined. If Liang Jian hadn’t disagreed, he almost wouldn’t have reserved a room for him in the old house.

    When Shen Lingjun was sitting by the window in a daze, he heard some movement. He looked down and saw Ruan Jichuan holding a gift in his hand and shaking it towards him. Ruan Jichuan didn’t give anything valuable now, otherwise Shen Lingjun would definitely feel uncomfortable with his frequent visits, so every time he came to him with some food or some weird gadgets.

    He Wen watched the whole process from the side, looking left and right, feeling that Shen Lingjun was like Rapunzel sitting in a high tower, while Ruan Jichuan was frantically spreading his peacock tail to try to get the princess to give him a chance.

    Shen Lingjun was actually slowly able to understand a little bit of Ruan Jichuan’s thoughts.

    If before he always felt that Ruan Jichuan came to play with him because his brother was there, now that Liang Jian barely lives here he still comes here as usual, and he can only come to see him.

    I don’t know if it was because of the stimulation some time ago, but Shen Lingjun suddenly became enlightened. He remembered Zhou Shunan’s constant kindness to him, and then contacted Ruan Jichuan’s performance during these days. How could he not understand what he meant.

    Ruan Jichuan knocked on the door twice and walked to him in a familiar manner. He was taking out the gift like a conspicuous bag when he heard Shen Lingjun suddenly say: “Are you chasing me?”
