Watching in the dark night

Chapter 76 Founder (Part )

I grew up without a father or a mother, so my grandparents raised me!
  In our small city, there are many children who did not grow up with their parents. But they get to see their parents every New Year, and my day will never come.

When I was very young, my parents were driving a truck and lost control of the car on the highway, causing a crash and killing everyone.
  My grandparents have been immersed in grief all year round because they lost their daughter. Grandpa and grandma are running around in order to compensate. No one in my family paid attention to my growth.

I go to school alone every day, then go home to eat, and then get up and go to school again the next day!

Until I met her, the daughter of my high school teacher.

I remember that it was a Friday and it was rainy.

I happened to be making up lessons at the teacher's house, so I was trapped at her house by Xiaoyu. So the teacher took advantage of the situation and kept me at home to have dinner.

I originally wanted to go home early, but the teacher was in a particularly good mood that day and strongly urged me to stay for dinner. Seeing how happy she was, I agreed.

When I asked why, she told me with a smile on her face that her daughter came home from another city every Friday to spend the weekend.

I remember that the teacher’s daughter seemed to work in finance at a company in a neighboring city. I briefly met him when I came here to make up a class, but I didn’t have much of an impression on him anymore.

Friday, isn’t that today? No wonder the smile on the teacher's face never broke during class today.

Just as I was thinking about it, the door lock turned, and the teacher's food was just on the table. The aroma of the steaming vegetables wafted over, and I felt hungry instantly.

The door opened and a girl walked in. She was wearing a white dress, with long black hair hanging down to her waist, and a delicate face.

The clear voice of "Mom" sounds very pleasant to the ear. She walked towards him, and she brought with her the scent of roses.

"Hey, are you my mother's student?" She saw me and raised her eyes.

"Well" when she asked me, I actually felt a little nervous and squeezed out a dry sound from my throat.

Damn it, what am I so nervous about? But when she walks in this direction, I can't help but forget to breathe. It seems like I’m not that hungry anymore!

Seeing that I was not very enthusiastic, she smiled nonchalantly and said, "It's raining outside, just stay and eat with us!" After that, without waiting for my answer, she ran to the kitchen to meet the teacher.

"Okay." I whispered back behind her.

Listen to her acting coquettishly to the teacher in the kitchen and telling interesting things about the past week. I loosened my hands that were tightly clenched due to nervousness and wiped the sweat from my palms on my clothes.

"Your name is Fang Zheng?"

While we were eating, she picked up a chopstick of food and asked me casually.

"Yeah" I really wanted to reply a few more words, but somehow, my mind was blank.

"Xiao Zheng studies very well." The teacher gave me a dish and said to her.

I was so happy instantly, and I even felt that I had never been so happy since I entered high school. I don't know why, but at this moment I am so grateful to the teacher for praising me.

My academic performance has always been good, and I have never felt so eager to be recognized by others before.

"Humph, I knew you just disliked my poor grades in school!" She pretended to be angry and pouted.

I almost blurted out, I want to say that my grades are actually not very stable, and sometimes they are not that good! But I feel that if I really said that, she might think that I am really stupid! So I lowered my head and ate the food silently.

"I don't have one! How can you, an adult, compare with a child?" The teacher rolled her eyes at her, then turned to me and said, "Ignore her! She said this just to try to erase her bad history of poor study. .”

"Mom~" she called the teacher charmingly from across the street.

And I would just bow my head and eat stupidly. At this moment, I really hate the fact that I can only study!

I want to say that I am almost 18 years old and already an adult! It can be seen that she was chatting so happily with the teacher. Apart from watching her smile, I couldn't do anything else!
  From that day on, as soon as I get up every Friday morning, I start praying to God if it will rain today!
  Don't put too much water, or she will get wet when she comes home. But don't be too young, because then you won't be able to legitimately stay at the teacher's house for dinner.

She likes to wear skirts, skirts of various colors, but her favorite is the white dress. The first one I saw.

In order to find the scent of the bottle of perfume she used, I walked into the perfume counter of the mall for the first time.

I was wearing a school uniform, and I was a boy. The sisters at the counter didn't want to talk to me, so I didn't find the smell on her in the end.

She always likes to say, "Mom, look! Fang Zheng is giggling again!" This is a joke she often makes after we get to know each other.

I also know that giggling all the time may not reflect well on her. But when I face her, I can't help but raise the corners of my mouth slightly.

I looked in the mirror and I kept smiling like this for a long time. I looked really stupid!

The teacher always pats her and says, "I'm much smarter than you, don't keep talking about my student like that!"

Every time at this time, I couldn't help but want to take that hit for her. Although the other person is my teacher, I still hope that she can just say it with her mouth. Can I just stop touching her?

"Yes, yes, he is your precious student. I knew I picked him up and it is not important to you at all." She pretended to be jealous, and winked at me after she finished speaking.

"You are not the most important." My voice was barely audible, but she heard it.

"It's better that you know how to comfort me! It's not like my dear mother." She muttered as if she was aggrieved.

Not a comfort! Only I know that what I say is true! But I was just a younger brother to her, so I didn’t dare to say a word.

"Okay, eat more." The teacher gave her a lot of vegetables. "That means Xiaozheng will talk to you. Do you think you have a sister?"

She knew that if she kept talking, the food in the bowl would pile up into a mountain, so she quickly picked up the bowl, moved it to the side, and started eating obediently.

She even looks so good while eating! I looked at her and instantly felt that the food in the bowl was no longer so fragrant.

She only regards me as a younger brother, I know! From her actions and the way she spoke to me, I can totally understand it!
  Originally, I thought it would be good to just keep going like this! As long as I can catch a glimpse of her on a Friday night, I will be very happy for the rest of the week!

I really thought that this was all I wanted, and there would be no more!
  But that day, I forgot to take my umbrella. Just when I walked back to the door of my teacher's house from downstairs, I heard my own heartbreaking voice!

She seems to be falling in love!

It turns out that my love is not so selfless!
