EBE Chapter 256 Valve Core
Chapter 256 Valve Core
Ring ring ring!
The school bell rings.
Zhuang Chaoying held her lesson plan in her hand. "Class, let me say one last thing. This semester is your senior year. It's time to get focused and make the most of this year. Don't waste this precious year. Okay, get out of class dismissed."
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards his office.
Senior high school students still have evening self-study sessions, but Xiaoting, Pengfei, and Dongzhe are always sensible and walk home together after school, so he is at ease.
Xiaoting was assigned by her teacher to draw a blackboard bulletin this week, and she quickly and efficiently wiped the blackboard clean.
Then, holding the chalk in her hand and staring at the manuscript in her eyes, she carefully copied the contents onto the blackboard, stroke by stroke.
Just as she was concentrating on copying, she suddenly felt a sharp, cramping pain in her stomach, as if an invisible hand was twisting it hard.
Immediately afterwards, a stream of heat flowed out uncontrollably.
Oh no! Could it be that my period came early?!
She was startled and inwardly groaned. She had been keeping track of the days, so how could this have happened so suddenly?
She hurried to her seat, frantically rummaging through her schoolbag. She usually kept two sanitary napkins in her schoolbag for emergencies.
I searched through it again and again, but there was no sign of sanitary napkins in my schoolbag.
How could there not be?
She lowered her head, looking at herself with an embarrassed expression. At that moment, she felt incredibly awkward, and in this situation, she simply couldn't leave the house.
"Wang Qian! Wang Qian!"
Wang Qian was just in the classroom a moment ago, how come everyone has left in such a short time?
On the other side, Lin Dongzhe was holding a basketball, and the "thump thump" of the basketball hitting the ground echoed in the corridor.
Xiaoting had to write the bulletin board today, so she played basketball with Pengfei on the playground for a while so they could go home together.
At this moment, Pengfei went back to the classroom to get his schoolbag.
As soon as Lin Dongzhe stepped into the classroom, he noticed Xiaoting sitting in her chair, looking troubled, her brows furrowed tightly.
"Xiaoting, have you finished writing the bulletin board? Let's go home."
But Xiaoting didn't get up; she still looked pained.
He quickly calculated the dates in his mind and guessed that it should be her period. Could it be that Xiaoting forgot to bring sanitary napkins?
Without hesitation, he took off his coat and handed it over somewhat awkwardly, his ears turning slightly red.
"You can't see it if you cover it with clothes."
Xiaoting blushed, gratefully accepted the coat, tied it around her waist, and nodded gently.
"Lin Dongzhe, I'm done. Let's go."
When they reached the bike shed, they saw Pengfei already waiting there. He was idly kicking pebbles at his feet. When he saw the two of them coming, he immediately went to greet them.
As Xiaoting walked to her bicycle, she saw the flat tire. "The valve core has been pulled out again."
Pengfei saw Xiaoting wrapped in clothes and instantly understood what was going on.
"Xiaoting, get in my car, I'll take you home. Tomorrow I'll find out whoever pulled out your valve stem and teach him a lesson."
Lin Dongzhe chimed in, "Pengfei, take me with you. Two fists can't fight four hands."
"to make!"
Xiaoting sat on the back of Pengfei's bicycle, her hands gripping the back seat tightly, the wind whistling past her ears.
She looked at Lin Dongzhe riding his bicycle beside her; the wind was making his clothes billow.
He gave himself the clothes, but he was only wearing a thin shirt; he must have been cold.
She was moved.
Half an hour later, the car came to a steady stop at the entrance of the alley.
Aunt Li was sitting at the door picking vegetables when she noticed Xiaoting wasn't pushing her bike and asked curiously. "Xiaoting, why didn't you ride your bike today?" Lin Dongzhe quickly stepped forward to explain. "Someone pulled out Xiaoting's valve core, so Pengfei gave her a ride back."
Xiaoting walked to her doorstep, turned around, and looked intently at Lin Dongzhe.
"Lin Dongzhe, thank you. I'll return the clothes to you after they're washed."
Lin Dongzhe held onto the backpack strap. "Yeah! Go back and drink some hot water, it'll be good for your health."
Xiaoting hummed in agreement and turned to walk into the house.
Pengfei stood in the courtyard, quietly watching the interaction between the two, his brows slightly furrowed.
He thought to himself: Something's not right, something's not right. There's something wrong with the two of them. They're not the same as when they were kids.
There seemed to be something different in Dongzhe and Xiaoting's eyes, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
It seems I need to find time to have a talk with Lin Dongzhe.
When she got home, Xiaoting rushed to the toilet.
Huang Ling, wearing an apron, was cooking in the kitchen, and steam was rising from the pot on the stove.
She was stirring the vegetables in the pan when she glanced up and saw Xiaoting wearing Dongzhe's clothes, hurrying towards the toilet.
Huang Ling was slightly taken aback, then realized what was happening. She quickly wiped her hands on her apron and hurried to the toilet door.
She asked softly, "Xiaoting, is your period starting?"
Xiaoting responded from the bathroom, her voice tinged with shyness. "Okay, Mom, could you get me some underwear, a sanitary napkin, and some pajama bottoms?"
Huang Ling quickly turned around, walked briskly to the wardrobe, took out the things Xiao Ting needed from the wardrobe, and then hurriedly returned to the bathroom door and handed the things in.
"Xiaoting, put your clothes in the basin later, and Mom will wash them for you. You can't touch cold water when you're on your period."
After Xiaoting finished, she came out of the bathroom with her clothes in her hand, which she had put into a basin. "Mom, I'll wash them myself."
Huang Ling smiled and touched her daughter's braids.
"Don't be shy with Mom. Go back and lie down. Pengfei just put a hot water bottle in your bed, so it's warm now. Get up when dinner is ready."
Xiaoting smiled sweetly and nodded.
Back in her room, Xiaoting snuggled into the warm bed that Pengfei had prepared for her. The soft mattress and cozy blankets made her feel incredibly comfortable.
She suddenly felt that her period, which had originally bothered her, didn't seem so bad anymore.
Just then, Pengfei walked in carrying a cup of hot water. "Xiaoting, drink some hot water."
Xiaoting took the hot water. "Thank you, brother!"
Pengfei's face lit up with a smile when he heard him call him "brother." "You're my sister, it's what I should do as your brother, don't be so polite."
He patted Xiaoting on the shoulder, then turned and left.
. . . . . . . . .
The next day during recess, the students were all doing their recess exercises in an orderly fashion on the playground.
Pengfei and Dongzhe, as they had agreed, crouched down and waited behind the house near the carport.
During the break between classes, there wasn't a single person here.
After lunch, the two of them rushed back and continued to squat there.
"Dongzhe, do you think we've waited all day for nothing?"
Pengfei muttered to himself, but his eyes never left the direction of the bicycle shed.
Dong Zhe lowered his voice. "No, these guys only bully female classmates. Why don't they come and remove my valve core? We have to catch them today."
