Chapter 96 The Past Cannot Be Admonished
After several quick runs, the efficiency of starting the group increased, and more and more people joined the group. Although Chen Sui had said before that she would start a teaching group depending on the situation, in reality, she never did. Some group members who were waiting for her to start a teaching group quietly left the group.
That evening, Chen Sui had just finished taking a taxi and was about to go back to her dormitory to rest when Mu Mian suddenly came to chat with her privately: "Team Leader, are there any more taxis? I went outside and acted in several taxis for other team leaders, and finally learned them all. I'm back to repay your kindness QAQ."
"Wow, I knew you could learn it, but it's too late today, let's practice tomorrow," Chen Sui replied.
"Okay," Kapok replied, then sent another message:
"Hehe, if I can get top-ranking damage and don't make any mistakes, can you call me baby?"
"Um...you know...I can't shout it out."
"Okay, Captain, your voice is so nice, I really want to hear you call me baby."
Then Chen Sui stopped replying to him.
The next evening, Chen Sui called for people to join the group as usual. Remembering this incident, she specifically tagged Mu Mian in the group chat, but the other party didn't respond.
Chen Sui messaged him privately again, but he didn't react much.
The next day at noon, while Chen Sui was having lunch with Zhang Jing and Wang Zhi, she suddenly received a strange message on her phone from Mu Mian:
"Just to confirm, you have sweet poison, right?"
A smile appeared on Chen Sui's lips, and she chuckled softly. Why was Mu Mian suddenly pretending not to know her? She wondered what little tricks he was up to this time.
Sitting across from her, Zhang Jing looked at Chen Sui, who was staring at her phone screen and grinning foolishly, and asked curiously, "Xiao Sui, what are you laughing at?"
Chen Sui shook her head: "It's nothing."
Then he casually replied in the chat box: "No."
A moment later, Mu Mian replied in the chat box: "Oh, because you're the only person in her friend group, could you please tell this friend named Sweet Poison that my sister won't be online anymore?"
When Chen Sui saw this message, she was completely stunned. What did it mean?
My sister? ...What happened to her?
Chen Sui's fingers flew across the screen as she typed: What does this mean? Mu Mian, what kind of joke are you making now?
There was no reply from the other party, and the matter should have ended there, but Chen Sui's heart became increasingly uneasy.
After thinking it over, Chen Sui greeted Zhang Jing and Wang Zhi and went to make a phone call to let the two of them eat first.
I walked into the stairwell and pressed the button to make a voice call.
The first time, the call went on for too long and no one answered, so I hung up.
The call wasn't connected until the second time.
"Feed..." Chen Sui said timidly. This was the first time she had spoken directly to a stranger she met online.
A gentle young man's voice came from the other end: "Hello, I'm Mumian's brother."
"Oh, hello, I'm Sweet Poison. I thought Kapok was joking with me," Chen Sui explained.
"Yes, that's just how my sister is. Because she can't speak normally, she seems more lively online."
Chen Sui was stunned: "What do you mean by 'can't speak'?"
After hesitating for a moment, the other person slowly explained, "My sister has throat cancer, and she hasn't been doing well lately. She came to the hospital for chemotherapy today, and we're planning to go abroad to see if there are any better treatment options."
"Huh?!" Chen Sui was taken aback; this was an unexpected turn of events.
"Because just before she went in, she asked me to tell you that we had made plans to hang out yesterday, but she broke her promise, and I'm afraid there won't be many more opportunities in the future."
"Ah... this... it's okay... it's alright..." Chen Sui suddenly felt her throat become hoarse, and she wanted to say some words of blessing and comfort, but she couldn't open her mouth.
"Hmm... there was something else she wanted me to tell you."
"Um?"
The other person was silent for a moment, seemingly hesitant to speak, but finally said earnestly:
She said, "It's such a pity I didn't get to hear you call me 'baby'."
…………
When Chen Sui returned to the dining table, Zhang Jing, who had been chatting and laughing with Wang Zhi, noticed that Chen Sui had stopped talking and was just silently eating her rice. So she called out to her, "Sui Sui."
"Hmm?" Chen Sui hummed a few times, then looked up, and Zhang Jing noticed that her eyes were red.
"What's wrong? Who made you angry?" Zhang Jing asked with concern.
"I'll give her a couple of punches for you." Wang Zhi readily agreed, rolling up his sleeves and patting his non-existent upper arm muscles.
Teasing her like that, Chen Sui couldn't hold back her emotions any longer, and tears started streaming down her face. She stubbornly insisted, "It's nothing... hmph... really nothing..."
During afternoon class, Chen Che watched from the back row as Chen Sui stared out the window, seemingly lost in thought. He found it amusing, thinking that the good student had finally given up the act.
At this moment, Zhang Jing sent him a message saying that Chen Sui had inexplicably cried while having lunch with them, and when asked, she said she was fine. She asked if he wanted to check on her.
Chen Che thought for a moment and replied: Are you girls so inconsiderate that I have to do it myself?
Zhang Jing replied: Get lost. You two are always together. You probably know her better than anyone else in the whole school.
Chen Che: Senior, don't talk nonsense. We are just friends. Oh, maybe it's more accurate to say we're superior and subordinate, since the entire external relations department is basically my employee now.
Zhang Jing: Hehe, you'd better be. Also, I'm going to really demand sponsorship from you later.
……
That evening, Chen Sui didn't come to the incubation park either. Everyone in the group was urging Chen Sui to start the group purchase, but Chen Sui remained silent and no one knew where she was or what she was doing.
Chen Che sent a message asking: Class monitor, where are you? I see so many people in your group are eagerly waiting for you to start a group.
Chen Sui did reply to Chen Che's message, but only with a few words: "Not in the mood, don't want to play."
Chen Che stroked his chin, thinking back to how she had been so spirited while playing games yesterday, so it couldn't be Yang Wei from the electronic world.
But if someone who loves playing games suddenly stops playing them altogether, then there's an even bigger problem. It seems I really need to check on her and find out what's wrong. So I asked, "Where are you?"
Chen Sui replied after a while: It's in the library.
When Chen Che arrived at the library, Chen Sui was sitting on the cold steps. He instinctively reached out to pull her up, saying, "The ground is so cold, get up."
If you don't pay attention when you're young, you'll become more careful when you're old.
Chen Sui looked at the hand Chen Che offered and grasped it without any hesitation. Chen Che then pulled hard, and Chen Sui stood up.
"Class monitor, when other people are depressed they can't eat and their weight drops drastically, but you've actually gained weight. I almost couldn't lift you up," Chen Che laughed.
Chen Sui rolled her eyes at him and said, "Get lost."
The feeling of frustration and distress I had just been experiencing has dissipated a bit.
"Tell me, what happened?" Chen Che asked, knowing he would have to play the role of a psychologist and a caring older brother again today.
Chen Sui wasn't surprised that Chen Che noticed her low spirits. After thinking for a moment, she said with a hint of bitterness, "Chen Che, I think I've hurt someone."
