Will you be my boyfriend?
Thank you Taoyuan for your long-term support...
Li Chao lay down on his bed after Liu Hongfu and his entourage left, but he didn't know whether he was really tired or intentionally avoiding something.
Wu Jian looked at the atmosphere in the house and felt a bit awkward, so he intentionally wanted to ease it. He picked up a big watermelon from the side of the bucket, put it on the table, cut it into 16 pieces horizontally and vertically, and the red flesh emitted a tempting charm. However, the people in the house still didn't move towards this side.
Li Luo also knew that it wouldn't be good to let things go on like this, but she didn't know how to bring it up either. Her mind was racing even faster - why did Li Chao want to fight Bai Shi? Was it because of me? Or something else?
Luo'er thought of all possibilities, and his breathing also started to become a bit disordered.
Just when everyone was about to be suffocated by the oppressive atmosphere, a voice finally broke the eerie silence: "Call the class teacher!"
"What's going on?" Wu Jian suddenly became alert, his eyes fixed tightly on the other person.
Lu Xuan Sheng raised an eyebrow, he didn't want any more trouble, and glanced at Li Chao who was sleeping soundly, continuing: "I think we need her help, otherwise, the days ahead won't be easy!"
"If you're sure, I'll go to school right now!" Wu Jian threw down the fruit knife in his hand, smoothed out his clothes, and turned around to leave.
"Huh?"
Looking at Wu Jian, Lu Xiansheng felt that something was not quite right, and his brow furrowed slightly, but he couldn't think of what the problem was for a moment. He shook his head lightly and replied, "Forget it, Bai Shi's identity is already out there. Even if the class teacher is willing to step in, the position would be very awkward. Let's just handle it ourselves!"
"How to deal with it? How can we be together for 24 hours? It's okay for one shift, but what about Li Chao and Yu Wen? What will they do?" Chen Zhiquan rubbed his knotted eyebrows, directly throwing out the doubts in his mind.
Listening to Chen Zhiquan's series of rhetorical questions, Lu Xiansheng could only sigh and look at Wu Jian, feeling a bit conflicted for a moment, unsure of where to start.
But before I knew it, the sky outside the window had turned gloomy, with thick clouds gathering together like a tidal wave, swirling and surging, with flashes of white lightning appearing and disappearing. Before long, heavy rain was pouring down from the sky, dancing wildly, while strong winds howled and whistled through the air.
The commotion was so great that everyone in the house couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines. Looking at the sky outside, Lu'er couldn't help but furrow her brow and say, "Now we can't go back!"
"Don't worry, it's probably just a thunderstorm. If it doesn't stop in a while, I'll call a car and we can head home together!" Lu Xiangsheng walked over to Luo'er's side, draped his jacket over her shoulders, and closed the window tightly.
"Where are Xiaoxuan and Ruoyun? They can't still be at school, can they?" Lu'er suddenly thought of something else, hesitated for a moment, then said firmly: "No way, I'm going to go find them."
As soon as she finished speaking, she pushed Lu Xuan Sheng and was about to walk out.
Xiao Xuan?
When I thought of myself receiving the information and running out, I didn't even say a word to anyone before running away. Chen Zhiquan slapped his own head hard, wouldn't Yu Fei still be waiting for me in class?! No way, I have to go pick her up!
Lying beside him, Li Chao also immediately got up and went outside when he heard Luo Er's voice.
Lu Xuan Sheng quickly pulled Lu Xiao Er back, it was windy and rainy outside, he didn't feel at ease letting Lu Xiao Er go out at this time. He managed to pull Lu Xiao Er back, but couldn't stop the heavily injured Li Chao.
It's okay, Wu Jian came out of the kitchen in time and pulled Li Chao down to the bed, saying with a helpless expression: "I'll go!" After that, he didn't wait for anyone else to say anything, took his umbrella and disappeared into the rain curtain.
"Can you tell me why you went to fight with Bai Shi?" Li Luo'er stared at Li Chao with a pair of big eyes.
"Because..." Lei Chao looked at the two guys making eyes at his sister's back, but ignored them, shook his head and continued: "She called you a fox spirit, I heard it, so I lost control and went to hit her..."
Li Luo's heart was filled with emotion, but before she could express it, she felt a pang of guilt. If it weren't for her, how would Li Chao have suffered White Po's revenge and ended up covered in injuries? Thinking back to the scene earlier, she couldn't help but feel a little frightened.
"I'm soaked to death!" Shen Xiaoxuan quickly flashed into the room, rubbing her hair which was dripping with water.
"Li Chao, how did you end up like this...... Wuuu......" Yifeng, who had followed in with a heart full of joy, suddenly lost control upon seeing Li Chao's state and, without regard for the many older brothers and sisters present, threw herself on Li Chao's body and wept.
Wu Jian walked in slowly, holding an umbrella but still getting completely soaked.
"...How did you end up like this?" Lu Xiangsheng hadn't finished speaking when he saw Shen Kai following behind him.
Shen Kai's white sportswear was soaked through by the rain, clinging to his body. The water droplets on his bangs slid down along the contours of his face, and the misty vapor blurred his eyes, making him look even more melancholic.
"Why did you come?" Lu Xiangsheng asked.
"I accompanied Xiao Xuan in class waiting for you, Wu Jian came to find us and said you are here!" Shen Kai's tone was so calm, without any ripples.
Lu Xiansheng didn't say another word, leaned against the wall and lit a cigarette, blowing smoke into his own eyes.
"Lu Xuan Sheng, come out!"
Shouts came from outside the door again, and despite the heavy rain curtain, they could still be heard clearly.
"Liu Hongfu?" Wu Jian was a bit skeptical, pushing open the window to look outside, his voice suddenly lowered: "Bai Shi has arrived."
Lu Xuan Sheng sneered, as if mocking his own IQ, how could he not have thought of this.
"Don't go!" Li Luo'er grabbed Lu Xuan's sleeve, somewhat anxiously.
Lu Xuan Sheng's mouth curved up with a hint of relief, and he brushed away Luo Er's hand: "Don't worry, nothing's wrong, wait for me here..."
"What's wrong with you?" Chen Zhiquan asked Shen Kai, who wanted to follow him out.
"I'll go take a look and see if there's anything I can help with."
"Haha! Such a funny joke, I don't know if you're genuinely trying to help Bai Shi or just pretending to admire Xuan Sheng!"
When Shen Kai heard Chen Zhiquan's ambiguous words, he swung his sleeves and sat back in his original position with a cold hum.
Lu Xiansheng stepped out of the hospital gate and saw Bai Shi, who was wearing a pure white dress with golden edges and pearls embroidered on the hem. A beige silk scarf fluttered in the wind behind her.
Classical melon-seed face, enchanting phoenix eyes, satin-like hair casually piled on her shoulders, in the wind she looks like a woman who has walked out of a painting, but even this woman cannot move Lu Xiangsheng's heart.
Liu Ergou carefully held the umbrella for her, no matter how the north wind howled, there was no shaking at all, even if he himself had been drenched to the point of shivering.
"Speak." Lu Xiangsheng tilted his head to one side, not wanting to look at her.
"Be my boyfriend!" Bai Shi's eyes held a hint of hope.
Hehe, Lu Xiansheng dryly laughed a few times and firmly shook his head.
"Be my boyfriend!" Bai Shi repeated again, but the hope in her eyes had slowly disappeared. In fact, she knew the answer in her heart, but she was unwilling to accept it.
"Give me a reason!" Lu Xian Sheng said calmly, but with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
"Just let all these things go, I'll pretend nothing happened and won't bother anyone again!" Bai Shi said with some effort, her voice seemed to be squeezed out from her throat, still hoarse.
"It's impossible!"
"Why?"
"My heart already belongs to someone else, and you know it too. What's the point of this? You're in your third year of high school now, focus on your studies. There will be better men waiting for you outside, don't hurt anyone else or yourself anymore..." Lu Xiangsheng looked at her straight in the eye for the first time, speaking slowly, but his gaze made it clear that he was dead serious.
"Hmm... Li Lu'er? Is that so?" Bai Shi's cold laughter sounded desolate in the wind and rain, "That cheap and rustic little girl! Does she deserve you treating her like this? Besides, hasn't she always had Shen Kai in her heart? Haha, and yet you say I'm the one who's wrong? What makes you any better than me?"
"I'm impossible to be your boyfriend, and please don't hurt the people around me anymore. I don't want to treat you as an enemy, nor do I want to take you as my archenemy!"
"What? Are you going to hit me again?" Bai Shi glared at Lu Xiangsheng with a hint of defiance in her eyes.
"I, Lu Xian Sheng, never hit women, but I also won't stand idly by and watch my woman being bullied!"
Bai Shi's lips curled up in a cold smile, but tears still fell uncontrollably. She never cried in front of outsiders unless necessary. But today she did, fortunately, the rainwater washed it away, making others, and even herself think it was just rain, not tears...
"I'm leaving, take care." Lu Xiangsheng didn't ignore her tears, but his current position wasn't suitable for him to say anything more.
It was just at the moment when Lu Xiangsheng turned around, Bai Shi rushed up like a madman, tiptoed and held his face, her trembling lips fiercely pressed against Lu Xiangsheng's lips. Before he could react, she tightly hugged him... She didn't want to let go, nor could she!
Li Lu'er had been watching through the crack of the door, afraid that something unexpected would happen to him. But when she saw this scene, her whole body was like being struck by lightning, and she just stared blankly, unable to react in any way...
She stood there for a moment, then slowly turned around and leaned against the door, suddenly tears streaming down her face, her heart aching as if cut by a knife, the pain almost suffocating...
"You're crazy!" Lu Xian Sheng pushed Bai Shi away and wiped his mouth hard.
Haha, Bai Shi crouched on the ground, regardless of the heavy rain, just laughing wildly in the rain, not knowing whether he was mocking him or himself...
Liu Ergou raised his hand, and several strong men standing behind him rushed forward, surrounding Lu Xiansheng, clenching their fists.
And he gently helped Bai Shi up, opened the umbrella for her to block the rain. Seeing her like this, no one was more heartbroken than him!
Watching Lu Xiansheng and several thugs dancing, Bai Shi took a last look, a hint of sorrowful smile on his face, then bowed his head and got directly into the private car, the tires rolling away with accumulated water disappearing in the rain.
Liu Ergou stared at the car that had already driven far away, then turned back to stare at Lu Xiansheng who was still entangled with the thugs he had gathered, and could only smile dazedly.
"What's so funny?" Lu Xiangsheng kicked a sturdy man and asked him.
"It's just ridiculous!" Liu Ergou sat on the stone steps and opened a can of Coke that had been placed beside him.
"What's so funny? Look at the people you've brought! Are you trying to kill me? Is it worth risking my life for Bai Shi?" Lu Xiangsheng was a bit irritated, having just fought one battle in the afternoon and now another one was coming, he was getting a bit overwhelmed.
"There's nothing worth or not worth it, she likes you, can't get it so that's how it is, very normal! And at least this way you won't easily forget her, in her heart she'll still feel happy. It's much better than me standing by her side forever but never getting her attention!" Liu Er Gouzi's smile had a hint of loss, everyone thought he was just after the money, but who knew, he really liked Bai Shi!
Perhaps for people of their status, discussing emotions would be an insult to each other as well!
Lu Xuan Sheng was a bit out of breath, propping himself up on his knees and panting heavily, but his words were still very firm: "I advise you to give up early! Such a vicious woman will eventually play with your life! Fool!"
Hehe, what do you know? If I really loved her, no matter if she's good or bad, beautiful or ugly, even if she's using me, I would still feel happy. At least this is the only value that allows me to stay by her side... Liu Er Gouzi is still smiling, and in his smile, there's not just loss, but also some heartache.
Lu Xiansheng knocked down the last person, exhausted to the point where he couldn't tell if it was sweat or rain on his body. He looked at Liu Er Gouzi, who was beyond help, and stumbled as he opened the gate of Wu Jian's house.
But after pushing open the door, what she saw was Lí Luò'er standing in the rain, lost in thought...
He took her into his arms and held her tightly against his chest...
