The fact that a student was going to commit suicide attracted the attention of the entire school.
Some of the students in the class didn’t know what was happening when they heard the noise. However, when they looked out the window and saw the silhouette opposite, they gasped.
“Teacher, someone is going to jump down the building.”
“What the h*ll, who is that? What happened?”
The teacher looked at the window and when he saw the person on the rooftop, he quickly placed his books down and asked the class chairman to take care of the class. Then, he hurriedly went out to have a look.
On the rooftop.
Chen Liang wiped his tears and looked forward. He looked calm but he was really contemplating to jump.
He suddenly felt that he didn’t belong here and everyone was bullying him.
Especially when he thought of what had happened in the day which humiliated him. He felt the urge to jump and he couldn’t get rid of that thought.
The teachers and students were discussing it below.
“Which class is the student from?”
“Hey, isn’t that Chen Liang from the sixth class? He is a good student, why does he want to commit suicide?”
“Teacher Zhang, what happened to your student?”
The teacher in charge of Chen Liang’s class, Zhang Hui, looked at Chen Liang who was on the rooftop. His face was as white as paper and he ignored what the teacher had asked him. He immediately shouted, “Chen Liang, quickly come down. You can tell me what happened. Don’t do anything silly.
Chen Liang didn’t say anything. He just looked forward.
Teacher Zhang was extremely anxious. He didn’t know what to do. “Quick, call the police, call the police!”
The surrounding teachers were all anxious. They quickly took out their phones.
This was a major incident. If it were to happen, the consequences would be unimaginable.
In a distance away.
Li Yang looked at the rooftop and sneered.
“Brother Yang, this fella actually dares to commit suicide?”
Li Yang laughed disdainfully. “Him? I swear he wouldn’t dare to do it. He’s just scaring everyone. When he comes down, you’ll see what I’m going to do to him.”
“Brother Yang, it’s going to be blown up. Why do I feel like it’s because of us?”
Li Yang glared at him, “What do you mean by that? It has nothing to do with us. Stop guessing blindly. Let’s see what this fella wants.”
Then, the principal of the school came.
“Teacher Zhang, what’s happening? Why is your student thinking of committing suicide?” The principal was frantic when he went there. It was an educational institution, why did something like this happen?
If it really happened, he was going to be doomed.
Teacher Zhang shook his head, “Principal, I don’t know. I only realized Chen Liang was missing from the class but I didn’t expect him… him…”
“What are you thinking about? Quickly get him down,” the principal said anxiously.
Teacher Zhang didn’t think about anything else. He immediately shouted, “Chen Liang, don’t be rash. I’ll come up to talk to you.” Then, he quickly ran up.
At the walkway of the sixth level, there was a metal staircase. It was leading to the rooftop. The metal staircase wasn’t locked at all. Who knew this would happen?
He climbed to the roof.
Teacher Zhang stood at a distance away, “Chen Liang, listen to me. Come over here.”
When Teacher Zhang was inching forward slowly, Chen Liang started to get emotional, “Don’t come over…”
“Alright, alright. I won’t come over. Listen to me, don’t be rash. You’re the best student in my eyes and nothing must happen to you. If not, I’ll be heartbroken,” Teacher Zhang tried to console him.
Chen Liang wiped his tears, “Teacher Zhang, I know you are good to me but don’t come over. If not, I’ll really jump down.”
“Chen Liang, don’t be rash. Think about your dad who worked so hard to bring you up. He brought you to Shanghai from the villages and hoped that you would grow up to become a capable man. If you were to jump down now, what’s going to happen to your dad?” Teacher Zhang explained. He knew that Chen Liang was from a single-parent family. His dad was a shop owner at Cloud Street and life was tough.
