Guide To Raising the Sick Villain
Chapter 117
Ji Su liked to hear about things related to Qiao Lan, but he didn't like to hear about things related to Qiao Lan.
Not to mention that Qiao Lan and Tan Mo were preparing to get married as soon as they graduated.
Roman quarreled with Liu Cancan every day. Her quarreling skills were quite good, and because the two girls just now were unreasonable, they couldn't say anything after a few words from Roman. They could only say that Roman was meddling in other people's business.
Roman felt quite wronged after scolding Ji Su. People like to look for someone to rely on when they feel wronged. Without thinking, she turned her head to look at Ji Su. She didn't expect that Ji Su, who usually had a smile on his face, didn't have a good expression at the moment.
"Senior …" Roman muttered.
Ji Su didn't even look at Roman. He said, "That's enough," as if he had stopped this farce. Then, he turned around and left the club.
Pei Beijia looked at Ji Su's back as he left. It wasn't hard to guess why Ji Su was in a bad mood. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but turn her head to look at Roman.
Ji Su was very outstanding. There were many girls who liked him. Even in this small club, there were many who liked him secretly. However, Roman was the most blatant one. Almost everyone knew that she liked Ji Su.
Even Ji Su himself knew.
Pei Beijia also didn't like this girl before. She talked exaggeratedly and thought that she was smart. After all, she wasn't the type that she liked.
But no matter what kind of person she was, her enthusiasm was used by Ji Su as a smokescreen for him to chase other girls. If this girl knew why she was able to enter the club, what would she think?
Ji Su was really cruel.
Qiao Lan only found out that Roman had quarreled with other people because of her the next day in class. She was slightly surprised. Roman awkwardly said that she just couldn't stand people talking behind people's backs. There was nothing that couldn't be said face to face.
Qiao Lan laughed at the thought of Roman and Liu Cancan's daily quarrel.
Although Roman wasn't very likable, he was always open about everything. Thinking back, he had never heard Roman speak ill of anyone behind their back.
Roman was in a bad mood, so she could only find something to cheer her up. The thing that could cheer her up the most was naturally talking to Ji Su. However, Ji Su didn't come today, so Roman could only settle for the next best thing, which was to continue gossiping about Qiao Lan and Tan Mo.
"You guys have been so busy recently. What are you busy with?"
"Mo Mo is practicing," Qiao Lan said. "I'll practice with him."
Roman cupped his face with both hands. "Sigh, I'm so envious of you."
Qiao Lan smiled. "Are you jealous that I have such a good boyfriend?"
"No, I'm just envious that you guys are so good," Roman said faintly, "When can I be like you guys?"
Liu Cancan finally stopped quarreling with Roman this time. He was even a little speechless. "If you like him, then go after him. If you don't, he might be snatched away by someone else."
"I'm afraid that he won't like me."
"Then you won't say anything and he'll like you?
Why don't I see you being so wishy-washy when you quarrel with me usually … "
"You're not even a senior …"
After a few sentences, the two of them started quarreling again and returned to how they used to be.
The club's first activity finally ended. Qiao Lan didn't have to go to the club every day anymore. He accompanied Tan Mo to practice driving every day.
Tan Mo learned very quickly. In short, he learned much faster than Qiao Lan. Qiao Lan took more than two months to get his driver's license, but Tan Mo took less than two months to get his own license.
On the day he got his driver's license, the car that Uncle Chen chose for Tan Mo was also brought back. The person in charge of picking up and sending Qiao Lan every day also changed from Uncle Chen to Tan Mo himself.
If it was any other time, Roman would definitely pounce on Qiao Lan and gossip with him. However, Roman had his own things to do recently. Other than going to class, he didn't see him at all.
Liu Cancan said that Roman had officially started to pursue Ji Su.
It had been almost two months since Tan Mo learned how to drive and got his driver's license. Roman had also been pursuing Ji Su for almost two months.
Roman was very serious about pursuing him, but she still couldn't get him after two months. It was obvious that it was very difficult for her to pursue him. Moreover, her personality wasn't as lively as before.
Qiao Lan couldn't give her any constructive advice. Her understanding of Ji Su also stopped at the surface. Her impression of him was that he was still a gentle and easy to get along with senior. Qiao Lan still didn't feel that Ji Su really had any thoughts about her. However, because Tan Mo was especially wary of Ji Su, Qiao Lan never had any private communication with Ji Su.
Tan Mo bought a car. The two of them went to class from Monday to Friday and went out on weekends. Their days were very relaxed. Tan Mo was also very satisfied.
It wasn't that he didn't like Qiao Lan's club. If one day Qiao Lan left the club, he would be very happy.
Just like that, the middle of the semester passed. Something very serious happened in B Major, which originally had a very strong learning atmosphere.
Qiao Lan remembered that it was in class in the afternoon. Liu Cancan pushed their arms with a shocked face and whispered, "Someone committed suicide."
Although there were reports of student suicides in the news from time to time in recent years, the proportion of high school students and college students committing suicide had been increasing. However, it was only hearsay. This was the first time Qiao Lan and the others heard about such a thing happening around them.
Usually, the school would choose to keep this kind of news a secret. However, it naturally couldn't be hidden from the students in the school.
No one knew the reason for the suicide, but everyone could roughly guess the reason after passing it around.
It was said that the student who committed suicide was also a freshman. She was also a very beautiful girl. She didn't fall in love, didn't have bad friends, and didn't have any unforeseen events in her family. Therefore, the final reason was that she was under too much pressure from studying.
The students who could come here were all top students in their high school. When they came here and found that everyone around them was better than them, it was inevitable that they would feel a little disappointed.
However, the difference was too big. In the end, it led to such an ending.
Qiao Lan didn't know how to comment on this matter. As a normal person, she naturally felt sorry and sad. However, other than that, Qiao Lan inexplicably thought of Tan Mo.
Qiao Lan had lived a peaceful life with Tan Mo for too long. She almost forgot that the Tan Mo in the novel had actually committed suicide.
If she remembered the time correctly, it was during her freshman year. If she was more accurate, it was probably at the end of the first semester of her freshman year.
Qiao Lan couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart. Then, she jumped up crazily.
She knew that the current Tan Mo was no longer the old Tan Mo. He didn't have severe depression, and he didn't fall in love with Song Yao. Therefore, things like suicide would never happen to Tan Mo again.
However, the word suicide was too shocking. Qiao Lan couldn't help but feel sad in her heart.
Qiao Lan couldn't help but think about what kind of mentality Tan Mo had when he committed suicide. What kind of feelings did he have when he was in despair and pain?
Fear, breakdown, jealousy.
Qiao Lan suddenly shook her head hard to clear all the messy things in her mind.
The current Tan Mo was no longer the Tan Mo in the novel. He had already left his previous path of life. Everything that had happened in the past had nothing to do with him anymore.
Qiao Lan, don't think too much.
Qiao Lan took a deep breath. She didn't listen to anything in the second half of the class. After class, Roman told her that the club had an emergency meeting and asked them to go there after class.
After all, as a psychology club, they would naturally take action when something like this happened.
Qiao Lan nodded and packed her bag. While walking, she called Tan Mo.
Tan Mo had also just finished his class. After listening to her call, he was silent for a while before saying, "How long will it take?"
"I'm not sure either," Qiao Lan sighed. "There's an emergency and there's a meeting to arrange work. It might be a little late. Why don't you not wait for me today and go back first?"
"It's okay. I'll wait for you in the library."
After hanging up the phone, Tan Mo sat expressionlessly for a while. Then, he turned around and walked towards the library. However, just as he reached the door, he bumped into Ji Su who was coming out of the library.
Tan Mo didn't have the habit of greeting people he wasn't familiar with. Ji Su, on the other hand, was as "good-tempered" as usual. He was extremely easy to get along with. He took the initiative to greet Tan Mo and said, "Hello, junior."
Tan Mo glanced at Ji Su and calmly replied, "Hello, senior." Ji Su smiled and asked him as if they were close friends, "Junior, aren't you going home after class?"
"I'm waiting for my girlfriend," Tan Mo stopped and glanced at Ji Su.
"Qiao Lan," Ji Su nodded. "Then you'll probably have to wait a little longer. There's a lot of things going on in the club today. You know that something like this happened."
"Okay," Tan Mo was a little annoyed. He turned around and wanted to leave. However, he heard Ji Su say, "Junior, if you're waiting for someone, why don't you come with me to the club?"
Tan Mo's heart skipped a beat. "Suitable?"
"There's nothing inappropriate about it. You're not the only couple in the club."
.....
Qiao Lan, Roman, and the others waited for a while. The seniors of the club slowly arrived. Other than the members of the club, there were also two "family members". Qiao Lan looked at the seniors who brought their boyfriend and girlfriend over. She thought to herself that she could have brought Tan Mo along.
However, Tan Mo liked peace and quiet. He probably wouldn't like them sitting together and talking nonsense.
Just as she was thinking, the door outside opened and Ji Su walked in. She looked again and saw that her boyfriend, who was supposed to be in the library, had also come in.
Qiao Lan was stunned. She walked over and greeted Ji Su. Then, she whispered to Tan Mo, "Why did you suddenly come here?"
"I met Ji … your senior on the way."
Qiao Lan really didn't know if she was too slow or if Tan Mo was too sensitive. She always felt that Ji Su had ulterior motives towards her. When she saw Ji Su, she felt uneasy.
Since he was already here, then let him come. Qiao Lan was actually quite happy that Tan Mo was here to accompany her. She was just worried that he would be bored.
A huge conference table was set up in the large classroom. Everyone sat in a circle. Tan Mo sat next to Qiao Lan. Ji Su said that since this suicide incident happened in their school, even if Tan Mo and the others weren't members of the club, they could still listen in.
Ji Su had more information than Qiao Lan and the others. After sorting out the whole incident, he released a statement and said that he wanted to hear everyone's opinions.
Qiao Lan was also called out.
Qiao Lan, like the other students before her, expressed her sadness and regret. Then, she talked about some problems for students to overcome stress. Ji Su listened while writing something. After she finished speaking, he nodded and suddenly cued Tan Mo.
"Junior, since you're here, why don't you say something?"
Tan Mo's expression froze for a moment. However, it was only for a moment. He was still expressionless. Qiao Lan wanted to say no, but Tan Mo didn't care too much. He spoke very fluently, "Regarding this incident, no matter what the truth is, it has already happened. The only thing society can do is to restore the truth and give both parties a reasonable explanation.
In the past two years, there have been frequent suicides among college students. Other than the school's improper management, there may also be some problems with the students themselves.
First of all, as a place of education, schools should take appropriate measures for students. Other than paying attention to their academic performance and research results, they should also pay attention to their physical and mental health.
Some students have left their homes to study. The school has the responsibility to be responsible for their safety. This is without a doubt.
It is also the teacher's responsibility to give criticism or suggestions for improvement. However, these are all built on the basis that the human rights of the students are not infringed.
Criticism should be directed at the student's behavior, not the student's personality … "
After all, Tan Mo was a well-known figure in the school. After he came to the club today, a lot of people who had heard of Tan Mo's name were very curious about him. Ji Su took the initiative to call out Tan Mo for his opinion. Everyone was very interested.
After listening to him, everyone had the same thought. He was indeed a super scholar. Look at this clear and logical answer. His thinking was clear and there were no loopholes. The words he said were just like a thesis.
Qiao Lan quietly listened to Tan Mo finish speaking. She sighed silently. Perhaps everyone in the room except her thought that Tan Mo's answer was very good. In fact, it was very good. However, if one carefully analyzed Tan Mo's words, they would still be able to tell that his speech was different from the others.
This was an incurable defect brought about by Asperger's Disease. Tan Mo could not do anything about it. Qiao Lan could not do anything about it.
However, there were too few people who understood Asperger's Disease. Moreover, even if they did, they had not really come into contact with it. Therefore, they would not be able to tell the difference like she did.
Ji Su sat at the furthest part of the conference table. His hand that was holding the pen had already stopped. His fingertips landed lightly on the table, and he tapped it silently.
The corners of his lips curled up into a faint smile.
So there really were such coincidences in the world. There really were such unexpected surprises.
Ji Su had never pursued a girl before. He was too outstanding since he was young. He was always the one who was pursued. He had also never stubbornly liked anyone.
Qiao Lan was the first.
He was also the most difficult one.
Half a semester had already passed since school started. The chances of him meeting Qiao Lan could be counted with two hands. It was obvious how rare it was.
Qiao Lan had no interest in him at all. He was only focused on Tan Mo. Whether it was in private or through official matters, Ji Su had not found a single opportunity in the past few months.
Since he could not do anything about Qiao Lan, Ji Su thought of Tan Mo.
For Ji Su, it was not too difficult to make a person with a psychological disorder break down mentally. After all, it would not be more difficult than conquering Qiao Lan.
However, he did not expect God to give him such a big surprise right from the start.
Everyone was exclaiming that Tan Mo was indeed amazing. However, Ji Su caught the unusualness of his words.
It was smooth and logical. It was like the words of a Ph.D. student. No one could find any fault with it.
And it just so happened that the biggest problem was that he did not have any human feelings.
Tan Mo did not express any sympathy or regret about the death of a person. His entire speech was like an emotionless machine.
Was it obvious? Actually, it was not too obvious. At least, no one else had noticed it. Only he had noticed it.
However, if he had a father with the same illness as Tan Mo, and had listened to the same tone for almost 20 years …
Then everything would be too simple.
Tan Mo.
Asperger's disease.
This was really too coincidental.
