Chapter 11: So stupid, go die

  Nerve disease!

  Gu Xi ignored her words, took out his phone to check the time and almost missed it. Using a reader to read millions of books, completely ad-free! He turned around and left, Lin Xiaorong wasn't one to be trifled with, decided to follow her in to investigate. Only when they reached a small corner did she realize they had entered an anime building, hesitated for a moment before following her in, "Hey, hey! Damn it."

  Lin Xiaorong walked with a limp, wearing 10-centimeter-high shoes, and had just reached the first floor. The elevator door closed, but she still tried to pry it open.

  Suddenly, a few lewd-looking bespectacled men sitting next to me burst out laughing while covering their mouths. I've seen stupid people before, but never someone who still tries to pry open the elevator doors when it's already reached the 2nd floor. These guys should also be going upstairs to play games. Looking at their acne-filled faces, most of them probably stayed up all night, and when they laugh, they show off their yellow teeth.

  "Hey, you dare laugh at me."

  Lin Xiaorong's haughty demeanor gradually weakened, her tone dropping to a straight line. She really regretted the words that came out of her own mouth, and the focus of the group shifted to her. They got closer and closer to her, clearly smelling the nauseating body odor on her. The fat boy, with his eyes narrowed into a line, sized up Lin Xiaorong's all-name-brand outfit and silly expression, and had even more thoughts in his mind.

  That several hundred yuan, everyone can play games for several days. The purpose is very simple, everyone has not gone home for several days, and the money on their bodies is almost gone. Just thinking of going home to ask parents for money, now it seems unnecessary.

  "Give me all your money! Hand it over, now!" The fat man took a step closer, his eyes fixed greedily on Lin Xiaorong. Although it was broad daylight, the alleyway was eerily quiet, with few people around. Lin Xiaorong's eyes darted wildly about, desperately hoping someone would appear to help her out of this predicament - even a street cleaner would do.

  If it's just about the money, she can give them as much as they want, but she can't let her reputation be ruined by a few bad students. The fat one speaks with spittle flying from his mouth, and the strong smell of halitosis makes her feel like vomiting, making her involuntarily turn her face to the side. A skinny one rolls up his sleeves, and the even stronger smell of body odor makes her feel like throwing up blood.

  "Go away... I'll give you money, just leave me alone!" Lin Xiaorong said helplessly, tears streaming down her face as she closed her eyes.

  Just as she was eagerly waiting to hear the footsteps of passersby, the elevator door opened. Gu Xi carried a white transparent bag full of single pages and saw that she had been hijacked by several people. After sneering, he walked away directly, this kind of rascal, should be punished like this.

  "Hey, you're just leaving like that? Great: the latest chapter of 'God's Control Over the World'!" Lin Xiaorong stared with wide eyes at the girl in front of her, hoping she would save her like she had bullied her before. But as she watched her walk away, she felt a growing sense of disappointment and fear.

  "Can she save you?" The fatty seemed to have watched too many police dramas, and his acting became more and more exaggerated. He chuckled as he pinched Lin Xiaorong's neck.

  "Right, a few of you can consider raping first and then killing." Gu Xi turned around and sneered.

  "Hey, haha! Look, who's going to save you now?" The few young men seemed to become even more excited after hearing Gu Xi's words. The fat one got so excited that he let go of his hand to pat the shoulder of the brother next to him, these days girls are getting more and more understanding of boys' thoughts.

  "Are you kidding, do you think manna will fall from the sky?!" Gu Xi turned around and grabbed a handful of pamphlets to throw at the fat guy, then dragged Lin Xiao Rong to run away desperately, if they really fought, she would definitely lose.

  Ah! That fatty is purely a pseudo-fatty, a stack of single pages can knock him to the ground. The several companions beside him became even more tense, perhaps because they had been in the internet cafe for too long and hadn't exercised for a long time, even Lin Xiaorong wearing high heels couldn't catch up.

  "Are you guys crazy?! Hurry up and catch up, these two stinky girls!" Fatso was the big brother among these few people. His huge body leaned against the wheat-colored old wall with his hands on his knees, still urging a few brothers to chase after them.

  In school, these people stick together every day, recently they're especially addicted to online games and even skip class. When they don't have money, they always come up with excuses to ask their family for some. When the usual lame excuses like "buying supplementary teaching materials" or "paying class fees" won't work, they resort to acting like gangsters, and have swindled a lot of money from girls at nearby schools.

  "Fat brother, we really can't run anymore. Let's guard here and I'm sure they'll come back." Several accomplices said in unison. Maybe it was just Fatso who looked the most special among them, so he could be called Big Brother.

  They ran to the pedestrian street, and the crowd was getting more and more crowded. Gu Xi put down Lin Xiaorong's hand and said, "You're a mess wherever you go, my single page is all ruined."

  "Sorry, what are those single pages for?" Lin Xiaorong asked breathlessly.

  "What's wrong with you? Go die! Of course handing out flyers is for giving them out, did you think money would fall from the sky?"

  She looked at her frowning and continued to rub her injured foot. Recalling the scene of being chased earlier, it was so exciting. The original dislike for Gu Xi's appearance had disappeared without a trace in her mind. She had never made a true friend before and didn't know what a good friend looked like. Suddenly, she felt that this girl warmed her heart.

  "Sorry, my feet hurt so much, shall we go sit in a milk tea shop?"

  "What's wrong with you? Hurry up and go in, what a joke!" Gu Xi looked at her limping along, and reluctantly helped her to a small milk tea shop. They found a seat by the window, looking out at the people passing by outside, her heart felt somewhat melancholic. On a cold day like today, drinking a steaming cup of milk tea really hit the spot.

  The sky is getting clearer, and my mood has also improved a lot. I just paid a deposit of 50 yuan for that single page, and I guess it's gone forever. The building downstairs was littered with singles, and she wouldn't dare to go back and explain even if she had the courage. As soon as we came out, we lost money, and the girl in front of me frowned, still poking at her calf with her hand.

  "Wearing that high, twisted to deserve it!" Gu Xi looked at the time and got up to leave. His whole body was almost falling apart, he paid the bill and walked out.

  "Hey... why are you walking so fast? Wait for me!" Lin Xiaorong wiped the milk tea from the corner of her mouth and quickly caught up. The closer she got, the faster Gu Xi walked.

  Bang! Before I could even lift my head to look at the road, I crashed into the glass door of a milk tea shop. What a loud noise it was! All I felt was a surge of heat in my thigh, until my leg went limp and I touched my knee only to find that blood had soaked through my pants.

  Several service staff at the counter covered their mouths and laughed, scolding in their hearts. Not long after, Gu Xi turned around and looked through the crowd to see Lin Xiaorong sitting by the glass door, constantly rubbing her thigh. She probably bumped into the door, really stupid. She frowned and helplessly returned to the milk tea shop, gently pulling open the glass door.
