Chapter 101 Unknowing Evening Years (Three)

  The location of Su Qi Ruo's school, to put it nicely, is a scenic and ecological area; to put it bluntly, it's the suburbs. Since it's in the suburbs, if the students are on holiday, naturally there will be hardly anyone around.

  Even in remote areas with sparse population, the festive day of Chinese New Year is inevitably affected. The sound of firecrackers has been ringing from the 28th of December to the 30th, making it impossible for Su Qi to forget the Spring Festival even if she wants to in her dormitory.

  Su Qi was awakened by the sound of firecrackers early in the morning, and her idea of sleeping in was instantly shattered. Su Qi lay in bed thinking, how did so many people suddenly appear in such a desolate place to set off firecrackers? Did they all come to the suburbs because it's banned in the city?

  "What's on your mind?"

  "Hey! How come you didn't knock on the door?" Lu Ke suddenly appeared, startling Su Qi so much that she subconsciously clutched her quilt tightly, despite wearing her pajamas.

  Lu Ke looked at Su Qi with a startled expression, his calm face immediately turned gloomy, and he said in a cold tone, "Am I the one who's being taken advantage of?"

  "You're a man! I'm a girl!" Su Qi shouted furiously.

  Lu Ke ignored Su Qi Ru's furious state, lazily shifting his gaze elsewhere, and casually tossed a package onto the desk, "Breakfast."

  "Lu Ke! Don't think that just because you brought breakfast, you can... you can..." The sweet aroma of the breakfast wafted over, and Su Qi suddenly focused his gaze on it. He didn't know if it was due to his labored breathing from shouting, but he felt the aroma of the breakfast growing stronger, making his stomach feel a strong sense of hunger.

  Su Qi suddenly couldn't care about her image, jumped out of bed and quickly opened the big bag of things brought by Lu Ke. There were pumpkin porridge, buns, yogurt, eggs, and several other small dishes that she couldn't name. Such a sumptuous breakfast made Su Qi instantly forget Lu Ke's previous mistakes. She curiously asked, "Whose breakfast is this?" In her impression, there shouldn't be such a good breakfast shop near the school!

  Lu Ke couldn't be bothered with Su Qi Ruo and turned around to leave the bedroom door.

  Su Qi Ruo didn't care about Lu Ke's whereabouts, she just casually asked and didn't think she'd really get an answer from him. "Mmm..." Su Qi Ruo nodded repeatedly, this pumpkin porridge was smooth and sweet but not greasy. It tasted almost like a milkshake. Such high-quality pumpkin porridge was hard to come by.

  "Why aren't there any couplets and fu characters?" Lu Ke walked around the dormitory once again before returning inside.

  "There's no mood to stick that." The couplets and fu characters are usually taken care of by the elders in the family, and Su Qi has never been concerned about this. Besides, sticking couplets and fu characters on the dormitory door is strange enough.

  "You'd better not regret it."

  "What?" Su Qi Ruo's mind was preoccupied with breakfast, and Lu Ke's tone was light, so Su Qi Ruo didn't quite catch what Lu Ke said.

  "It's nothing." Lu Ke hooked a meaningful smile.

  "Right! I'm going to attend a get-together at noon, are you going?"

  "I won't go." Lu Ke's response was surprisingly straightforward.

  The so-called New Year's party is when the school organizes students who didn't go home for winter break to get together, have a meal, sing songs and do some entertaining activities. It's also a way for the school leaders to show they care about the students. As per tradition, the New Year's party is scheduled on the 30th of the lunar calendar, which is New Year's Eve, in the afternoon. After all, nighttime is for family reunions! The school leaders also want to celebrate the new year!

  Su Qi Ruo actually didn't want to participate in this kind of activity, the school leaders were all there, no matter what activity they did was boring, purely a waste of time. However, Su Qi Ruo was under the name of the student union, and it was the first time she stayed at school for New Year's, originally there weren't many students. If she didn't participate in the activities, she would definitely be gossiped about by everyone, this kind of thing that damaged her reputation Su Qi Ruo did not want to do, so she reluctantly agreed to participate.

  After a whole afternoon of fuss, the party finally came to an end. Su Qi Ruo dragged her tired body back to the dormitory and collapsed onto her beloved little bed, falling asleep instantly.

  Su Qi was sleeping soundly. She felt a slight itch on her nose, so she rubbed it and turned over to continue her good dream. However, the itching sensation didn't disappear but instead became more pronounced, feeling like feathers brushing against her nose.

  Was it Mao Dun calling himself? Su Qi waved his hand randomly in the air and muttered, "Mao Dun, stop making trouble."

  What made Su Qi Ruo angry was that the itchy feeling had spread to her face, and the last bit of drowsiness she had left was gone without a trace. Su Qi Ruo sat up abruptly from bed, scolding loudly, "Mao Tuan, what's wrong with you!"

  ……

  Su Qi Ruo blinked her eyes, and the person in front of her wasn't an illusion. Then... who was this man?! "Who are you?!" Su Qi Ruo shouted belatedly.

  "Haha, hahaha! So it was a fool!" The man burst out laughing without any reserve.

  After hearing the man's words, Su Qi's face turned red with anger. Who was this sudden appearance of a man? Where was Lu Ke? Wasn't Lu Ke always guarding the door? How could he let some unknown fool rush in!

  "Who are you! Get out!" Su Qi Ruo glared at the man in anger, but suddenly discovered something unusual. The man's body was surrounded by a layer of black mist, making it impossible to see his figure. This didn't look like a human being, but rather a demon. "What do you want?" Su Qi Ruo's tone changed, cautiously sizing up the man as she began to mobilize her spiritual energy with both hands. If this man had any evil intentions, she would definitely make him suffer.

  The man's eyes rolled around and carefully examined Su Qi Ruo before coming to a serious conclusion, "What an idiot!"

  "Are you looking to die?" Su Qi's entire body was overflowing with spiritual energy, proclaiming her rage at this moment.

  The man cautiously retreated two steps back, looking at Su Qi Ruo with a puzzled expression, "Actually from the Divine Clan, no wonder he's an idiot."

  Su Qi's teeth itched with hatred, and he was actually called an idiot to his face in a row. Who could bear it? However, he couldn't set up a barrier and attack at the same time, or else he would definitely make the demon clan in front of him look good!

  "You don't even know, and you're still arguing with me when I call you stupid!"

  "Who are you?" Su Qi retorted, her tone defiant.

  "What day is today?" The man asked seriously.

  "Happy New Year!"

  "Spit! What's the point of spitting, it's unlucky!" The man hastily spat out a few mouthfuls of saliva and asked again, "Besides, if not, I'd really become an idiot!"

  "Happy New Year!" Su Qiye responded in sync.

  Upon hearing the word "over the year", the man's face clearly showed an inexplicable strangeness, and he didn't let Su Qi guess anymore. The man rolled his eyes and said, "I am Xi!"
