As high school graduation approached, Gong Yuluo, the most popular Alpha in school, submitted a love letter to Shi Yi, the Beta campus heartthrob. Shi Yi had a beautiful and exquisite face, was tou...
Chapter 8 Chapter 8 The hero saves the beauty late but arrives
Gong Yulo seemed to be about to go out, but stopped there inexplicably and looked at him silently.
Shi Yi was very alert.
This guy should not say weird things in front of his mother.
But Gong Yulo said nothing and stepped aside like a gentleman.
Shi Yi held up his phone and said with a smile, "Mom, let me video chat with you in the room. The signal here is not good."
Shi Yi quickly walked to the door of the room, and out of the corner of his eye he saw Gong Yulo also walking towards the door of the room next to his.
He used the room card to open the door, quickly slipped in, and then closed the door.
It seemed as if if he was a step slower, Gong Yulo would squeeze in through the crack in the door.
Shi Yi leaned against the door, listening to the sound of the door of the next room closing.
He suddenly felt that his reaction seemed a bit too much.
Gong Yulo had applied to Xia University, and he had known about it for a long time.
So what's so strange about Gong Yulo appearing here?
He didn't buy the hotel.
Even if Gong Yuluo lived next door to him——
etc.
Gong Yuluo lives next door to him? ?
Shi Yi thought of the two knocks on the wall next door that he heard in the morning.
Was that knocked by Gong Yulo?
So weird.
Gong Yulo clearly recognized his voice, but remained silent and responded by knocking on the wall.
It's like some kind of secret code.
Shi Yi thought for a while, goosebumps crawling up his arms.
At this time, his cell phone rang again.
Shi Yi quickly adjusted his expression and answered Xu Zhuru's video invitation again.
"Mom, this is the room. Let me show you." Shi Yi opened the curtains to make the room brighter.
"Is the hotel noisy? Will it affect your studies?" Xu Zhuru asked.
"It's not noisy. Most of the people living here are students." Shi Yi said.
"Students...including the boy in the corridor just now?" Xu Zhuru asked. "He's an alpha, right?"
Shi Yi regretted it very much.
Why did he mention the word "student"?
"Well, probably," Shi Yi leaned against the headboard and whispered, "I don't know him."
"I forgot to ask Xiaoyi, are there any classmates taking the exam with you this time?" Xu Zhuru asked again.
"Yes, Wu You, you have seen it." Shi Yi said.
"I remember that child was pretty good." Xu Zhuru nodded.
Shi Yi didn't speak too loudly when chatting with Xu Zhuru.
He was always a little concerned about the sound insulation quality of this hotel.
Gong Yulo wouldn't be able to hear him when he spoke, right?
After hanging up the phone, he sat at the table and read for a while.
The time spent reading passed so quickly that he even forgot about dinner time. He just ordered food to be delivered and asked Wu You to come to his room to eat.
When Wu You came in, he basically squeezed in through the crack in the door.
Seeing him peeking around furtively, Shi Yi was speechless: "What are you doing?"
"Gong Yuluo isn't outside." Wu You patted his chest, "Then I feel relieved."
Shi Yi said expressionlessly: Thank you for telling me this.
"Why are you afraid of him?" Shi Yi opened the disposable lunch box and handed him the chopsticks.
"It's not that I want to be afraid of him, but it's my physiology that drives me. I can't resist." Wu You recalled the scene when he ran into Gong Yuluo in the afternoon and shuddered unconsciously. "There shouldn't be any beta who isn't afraid of him."
After saying that, Wu You glanced at Shi Yi a few times.
No, the only person who is not afraid of Gong Yulo is sitting opposite him now.
"I wonder if he's here to look for someone, or if he lives here." Wu You bit his chopsticks and pointed at the wall next door. "He shouldn't live in the next room, right?"
Shi Yi: “How should I know?”
He wondered if he told Wu You the truth, Wu You would not dare to eat and would crawl back to his room at night.
However, Gong Yulo not only lives next door to him, but also to Wu You.
Shi Yi thought to himself, I hope Wu You doesn’t find out about this.
After finishing his meal, Wu You slipped back into his room without anyone noticing.
In order to be in the best condition for the exam the next day, Shi Yi went to bed at nine o'clock.
But he couldn't fall asleep easily.
He was a little suspicious of the caffeine added to his evening drink.
He closed his eyes and began to count sheep.
The air was filled with a humid heat, and even turning down the air conditioner a few degrees didn't help.
Shi Yi rolled over and over on the bed hundreds of times. He wanted to stomp his feet but was worried that Gong Yulo would bang on the wall.
It was around three o'clock that he finally managed to fall asleep.
It was seven o'clock when the alarm clock rang. He sat up with dark circles under his eyes, feeling like he wanted to kill someone.
It’s all Gong Yulo’s fault.
Even though he fell asleep for a while and had some messy dreams, he was still worried in his dreams whether he would talk in his sleep and whether Gong Yulo would hear him.
When did Gong Yuluo's presence become so strong?
Shi Yi got up angrily and washed up. He wet his hair with clean water and scratched it a few times, then picked up his schoolbag and rushed out.
As soon as he walked out the door, he saw a figure in the corridor. He was wearing a white sweatshirt and seemed to have just walked out of the elevator.
It's just haunting.
Shi Yi was already carrying explosives, and now it was as if someone handed him a fire.
He thought that he would have to blow off a few of Gong Yulo's hairs today.
Although his insomnia has nothing to do with Gong Yulo.
But everything is related to Gong Yulo.
"Where have you been?" Shi Yi rushed to Gong Yulo and asked fiercely.
Gong Yuluo was stunned, looked down at him, and asked in a low voice: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
"Something happened, I want to beat—"
"I went for a morning run," Gong Yuluo glanced at his watch. "I started at 6:10, and it took exactly one hour."
"Morning jog?" This was an answer Shi Yi didn't expect.
He saw that Gong Yulo's hair was a little wet, his eyes were deep, and his chest was slightly heaving, which was indeed the result of exercise.
Shi Yi turned his eyes away.
Maybe because he didn't get enough sleep, he was now irritable and his heart was beating very fast.
"You really went for a morning run. You look so healthy. It's really unlike you." Shi Yi muttered.
"Well, I can't sleep." Gong Yulo said lightly.
He couldn't fall asleep.
Do you also have anxiety before the exam?
It doesn't seem like it. Isn't Gong Yulo a well-known learning genius and a test bug machine?
But Shi Yi couldn't possibly talk so much with Gong Yulo.
He lowered his head and drew circles on the carpet with his feet.
"Have you had breakfast?" Gong Yulo asked him.
"I'm just about to eat." Shi Yi answered without raising his head.
"Do you want to..."
"No, I have an appointment."
Shi Yi refused flatly.
At this time, Wu You just opened the door of the room and yawned with his mouth wide open: "Yibao, why didn't you call me when you got up? What time is it now?"
When he saw Gong Yulo, Wu You’s mouth went from being big enough to fit an egg to being big enough to fit a duck egg.
"Gong...Gong..." He widened his eyes, pointed at Gong Yulo, and backed away with shaking feet.
"Stop complaining, have breakfast with me, and then go to school." Shi Yi grabbed his arm and dragged him to the elevator.
"I will go back to the hotel after the exam. I will be here all night." Gong Yulo said behind him.
This person suddenly said this, and I don’t know who he was talking to.
Shi Yi walked into the elevator, pressed the first floor button, and came face to face with Gong Yulo.
No way.
Did he tell me that?
Does it matter to him whether Gong Yulo is in the hotel or not?
Shi Yi waited for the elevator door to close and looked at his dark circles reflected in the mirror.
Oh, it is related.
With Gong Yulo around, he would probably suffer from insomnia again.
"Gong Yulo didn't see me pointing at him just now, right?" Wu You was still absent-mindedly reviewing the scene when he just stepped out of the room.
"No." Shi Yi was also absent-minded.
"I just heard you talking to someone in the room. Could it be Gong Yu Luo?" Wu You realized. "Yi Bao, why do you have so much to talk about with him?"
"Who wants to talk to him?" Shi Yi denied it flatly.
"He also told you to wait for him in the room tonight, right?" Wu You pieced his memories together and asked.
"Why should I wait for him? He's staying in his own room, what does it have to do with me?" Shi Yi was a little annoyed.
"Why does Gong Yulo always appear on our floor? Could it be that he really lives..." Wu You imagined an extremely terrifying scene.
"Yes, yes, he lives in the room between us." Shi Yi said without thinking.
Wu You leaned against the wall for a long time and couldn't speak.
Shi Yi took a look at his deathly pale face and realized that he had accidentally told the truth.
-
During the next half hour of breakfast and the ten minutes of walking to Xia University, Wu You seemed to be in a trance.
Shi Yi tried his best to comfort him, but it didn't make him feel better.
Wu You burst into tears: "I don't want to have any contact with Alpha in this life. Living in the same hotel with Gong Yuluo already makes me feel suffocated."
"How can it be so exaggerated?" Shi Yi patted his shoulder, "He is just an ordinary person."
"How can a top-level alpha be an ordinary person?" Wu You said, his eyes widening. "Haven't you heard that on full-moon nights, they become very manic? They might even climb into our room through the window."
Shi Yi was speechless for a moment: "He's not a werewolf..."
Thanks to Wu You, Shi Yi's sleepiness was completely gone.
But the heat in his body still surged out of his pores from time to time.
Shi Yi lay on the desk and looked up at the central air conditioning in the examination room.
The other candidates didn't seem to feel hot, and some female omegas even put on coats.
What's going on with him...
I finally made it to the end of the first day of exams.
Looking back, Shi Yi felt that he probably only scored 85 points.
Wu You saw him at the hotel entrance and jumped up three feet high: "How was your test? How did you do? You must have gotten a high score. I think the questions were quite easy!"
Shi Yi looked at him weakly: "Can your school's questions compare with Xia University's?"
"What's wrong? You seem listless." Wu You came over with concern. "Did you not do well on the test? It's okay. You still have three subjects tomorrow. If you cram today, you will definitely get a high score tomorrow."
That's you.
The little prince who crams at the last minute.
Shi Yi no longer wanted to talk.
Wu You looked worried: "There's really something wrong with you, Yibao."
He reached out and touched Shi Yi's forehead: "Do you have a fever? It doesn't seem so. Your forehead is quite cool."
How can my forehead be cold when my body is so hot?
There was something really wrong with him.
Shi Yi supported himself on the wall and slowly walked into the elevator.
"I'll go back to my room and lie down for a while. Don't call me for dinner." He said with his remaining strength before the elevator door closed.
-
After midnight today, Shi Yi will be eighteen years old.
He really didn't want to spend his birthday sick.
Will it be helpful to take some medicine temporarily?
He probably has a cold.
Shi Yi opened the food delivery app, selected some cold medicines, and submitted the order.
After a quick shower in the bathroom, he climbed into bed and lay down.
The delivery man delivered the food, he took it, took a few capsules according to the instructions, and then made a powder and swallowed it.
Not long after, Shi Yi felt sleepy like a tidal wave. He covered his face with the quilt and fell asleep immediately.
Go to sleep, go to sleep, your cold will be gone after a good night’s sleep.
Shi Yi comforted himself like this in his dream.
I don’t know how long it took.
In a daze, Shi Yi heard someone knocking on the wall of his room.
Four times.
Boom boom boom.
And four times.
Boom boom boom.
Who is so boring...
Shi Yi propped up his head and thought that the person living next door to him was Gong Yulo.
He didn't have the energy to cause trouble to Gong Yulo now.
Shi Yi frowned, opened his eyes a little, and wanted to check the time on his phone.
0 o'clock...
Only 12 o'clock?
How could he wake up so early?
The only light in the room was from the cell phone, but it was blindingly bright.
Shi Yi struggled to get off the bed, walked barefoot to the window and opened the curtains.
When he opened it for the first time, he thought the curtains were broken.
No matter how I opened the curtains, it was still pitch black outside.
Then he remembered that it was late at night.
Shi Yi thought he was funny.
He smiled and turned around, trying to turn on the light.
At this moment, a bolt of lightning struck from behind him, followed by rumbling thunder and heavy rain pouring down in an instant, as if to completely submerge the room.
Shi Yi suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart, grabbed the clothes on his chest and knelt forward.
Damn it.
He has never been afraid of thunder.
Shi Yi wanted to stand up again, but he suddenly felt a pain in the skin on the back of his neck.
It was a piercing pain, as if the thin skin was torn apart in an instant.
Shi Yi couldn't bear it anymore and curled up in pain on the ground.
He heard a knock on the door.
But he couldn't stand up and open the door.
After a while, there was the sound of banging on the door.
Shi Yi forced himself to stand up and sat down on the chair.
His strength was gone again.
Shi Yi really wanted to say that he had to pay for the broken door of the hotel room.
But he couldn't make a sound.
At this time the door opened.
A tall, ghostly figure stood outside the door with its back to the light.
He was breathing slightly and looked a little flustered.
Gong Yulo was looking for Shi Yi's figure in the dim light.
Until he found Shi Yi on a chair in the hotel.
Shi Yi leaned back in the chair, facing him. He hugged his knees, his thin body curled up and trembling slightly.
Gong Yulo walked over and gently brushed away the hair that fell on Shi Yi's cheek.
Then he shook his fingers slightly in front of Shi Yi's eyes.
It wasn't until Shi Yi blinked that his heart finally settled back into place.
