Tiger and Wolf Words

"Eh? Don't you like Lian-ge...?"

Realizing that he seemed to have made a mistake, Li Mantao's voice became lower and lower.

After hearing his words, Rong Yi's pale face darkened a little, "Manman, who told you that?"

Listen to what netizens say...

Li Mantao coughed lightly and muttered, "That's what everyone on the internet says. I've read several analysis posts, and they all make sense..."

"Pfft..." Deng Yangshuo, who understood what Li Mantao meant, couldn't help but burst out laughing. He covered his mouth and said to Rong Yi, "Did you hear that? Your childhood sweetheart thought you and Lian Yu were a couple!"

Rong Yi's face turned as black as charcoal, and he said in a deep voice, "What's on the Internet is all nonsense."

Having accidentally angered Rong Yi again, Li Mantao shrank his neck and tried to make amends: "I made a mistake. Well, then I will take care of you during this time."

The boy's voice was low and a little hoarse. Rong Yi glanced at the bruises on his neck and relaxed his frown helplessly. "Does your neck still hurt?"

"fine."

"Check it out."

It was just a little bruise. Being so concerned about it by someone who had just had surgery, Li Mantao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It's really okay, there's no bleeding at all."

Rong Heng, who had been watching quietly, also said, "Your health is important. How about this? I have a friend who works at a private hospital. They have good medical care and excellent service. I'll have someone pick you up tomorrow for a full-body checkup. That way, I can rest assured."

Li Mantao wanted to refuse, but Rong Yi whispered, "Manman, be obedient."

"All right."

Li Mantao scratched his head. "So, do you want to live in the dormitory during this period, or should I move in with you? The dormitory might not be very convenient, so how about I go over there? Where are you living now?"

Rongyi applied for a residential complex right next to C University, just a few minutes’ walk from the school.

"Then I'll trouble you to take care of Rong Yi." Rong Heng smiled gently, "Can you add my contact information?"

Li Mantao glanced at him, took out his phone and added him as a friend.

Rong Heng looked at Rong Yi again and said, "I'll have someone drive your car back for you later. How about taking my car and taking you back now?"

Several people got into Rongheng's car.

Only after getting in the car did Li Mantao have time to deal with the large amount of information on his mobile phone.

Hours had passed since Xu Long's attack on Lian Yu, and the internet was abuzz. His haters had also seen the relevant posts and were tagging him, asking if he was okay. Li Mantao replied with a "nothing" and sent Kong Zhong a video.

Since the incident happened, Kong Zhong has called him thirty or forty times and sent him countless WeChat messages.

The WeChat ringtone rang for a second before Kong Zhong picked up the phone. As soon as he showed his face, he started to curse at him: "Li Mantao, you idiot, you haven't replied to messages or answered calls in such a long time, don't you know that it will drive me crazy?!"

Li Mantao subconsciously tilted his head back, feeling as if his face was sprayed with saliva.

Knowing that Kong Zhong was really worried about him, Li Mantao didn't dare to talk back and whispered, "I'm fine, don't be angry."

Kong Zhong was driving. He took a few breaths to calm himself down before saying, "Where are you now? I'll pick you up."

The other people in the car paused in unison, but Li Mantao didn't notice. "No need. I'll take my friend's brother's car back."

"Oh, right." Li Mantao remembered and said, "I can't go back to sleep with you for a while."

The few of them paused again. Deng Yangshuo's pupils trembled as he silently questioned Rong Yi.

Your childhood sweetheart is already with someone else? You want to be the mistress?

Rong Heng also had a strange look on his face, and he frowned slightly and glanced at Rong Yi.

Rong Yi looked at the face in Li Mantao's phone expressionlessly.

"What do you mean there's someone outside? My friend is injured. He lives alone and his hand is injured. He can't take care of himself. It's because of him that I'm not injured. I have to go and take care of him." Li Mantao said calmly, speaking in a fierce and threatening manner, "Why don't you go find someone else to sleep with?"

Several people: "..."

Deng Yangshuo felt that he was still too young and for a moment he couldn't figure out what Li Mantao's last sentence meant.

Is this, an open relationship?

Well, to some extent, it's still good for Rong Yi. Deng Yangshuo looked at his friend and made a comforting lip gesture: It's okay, you still have a chance.

Rong Yi's face was cold and he remained silent.

The person on the video hesitated for a few seconds and then said, "Okay then."

Oh well.

As the low pressure spread, Deng Yangshuo rubbed his arms unbearably, silently lamenting that your circle is really chaotic.

Li Mantao hung up the phone and looked at his phone with some confusion.

In fact, when he first entered school, he was also puzzled as to why a young man like Kong Zhong had to live in the dormitory. Although the dormitory conditions in their school were good, they were far from Kong Zhong's usual living standards.

But later he found out that this was mainly due to Kong Zhong's quirk.

Kong Zhong couldn't sleep alone in a room, he needed someone to accompany him to sleep well, so unless he found a beautiful girl that suited his taste, Kong Zhong would sleep in the dormitory.

Li Mantao once went hiking at night with Li Mi's friends without informing Kong Zhong, so Kong Zhong complained about him for two whole screens on WeChat.

What was strange was that Kong Zhong did not make a fuss this time and approved Li Mantao's application to stay outside the school very readily.

Maybe he's found a new love. Li Mantao put away his phone without suspecting anything.

The car felt strangely cold. Li Mantao rubbed his arms, glanced at Rong Yi's face, and asked, "Does the wound hurt? Did the anesthesia wear off so quickly?"

Rong Yi lowered his eyes and said, "It doesn't hurt."

No pain? Li Mantao didn't believe it. Rong Yi looked gloomy, and it was obvious that he was trying hard to endure the pain.

He looked at Rong Yi's wound and felt a little distressed.

When Rong Yi was injured as a child, she would just endure it silently, and even when he found out, she would still stubbornly say it didn't hurt.

Li Mantao thought of the past.

He has been cute and likable since he was young, and his neighbors all favor him, but this was not the case when he was in school.

At least many of the boys in the class disliked him.

An orphan without parents, he was picked up and raised by an old man who picked up rags. He was so poor, yet he dared to steal the attention of the girls in the class with his pretty face.

Someone quietly broke through the defense.

After being praised for being cute by the class beauty with a blushing face, Li Mantao was blocked by the troublesome boys in the class after school. Although no fight broke out in the end, several shoe prints were still left on her schoolbag.

Li Mantao wiped the shoe dust off his schoolbag, but he didn't notice that the shoe prints were still on the back of his school uniform.

When Rong Yi was washing his clothes, she saw the shoe prints, but she didn't ask him about it. She just followed him to school silently the next day.

The class beauty was talking to Li Mantao again that day, which made the prickly boy unhappy. After school, he blocked Li Mantao in an alley, ready to teach Li Mantao a lesson.

But before he could do anything, the prickly man's hand was grabbed by someone. A tall teenager wearing a baseball cap and a mask stood behind him and said, "What are you doing?"

The prickly boy was only in the first grade of junior high school, more than a head shorter than the boy. He felt a little scared, but thinking that there were five people on his side, he toughened up again and said, "It's none of your business. Go wherever you want."

Li Mantao, who was being grabbed by the collar by another person, knew as soon as he heard the voice that it was Rong Yi.

He was a little anxious, afraid that Rong Yi would be implicated, so he could only pretend not to know her and chase her away, "Don't meddle in other people's business, hurry up and leave!"

I don’t know if those people are still looking for him. Rong Yi has been trying to stay at home these days. Even if he goes out, he wears a mask and a hat.

He took off his hat, looked at Li Mantao calmly, and said to the man holding Li Mantao, "Let him go."

"Are you being so arrogant? Are you trying to be a hero?"

The troublemaker felt provoked and tried to push Rong Yi, but Rong Yi stood there motionless like a mountain and was not pushed.

Ci'er was so embarrassed that he yelled, "Brothers, kill him!"

The thug who was holding Li Mantao let him go and rushed towards Rong Yi.

Li Mantao was anxious to join the battle, but after taking two steps, he saw his brother knock down several short guys in no time.

Li Mantao: “…”

He knew that Rong Yi was a strong fighter, and he also knew that the troublemakers were just weaklings who relied on their numbers to bully others, but he didn't expect that the strong would be so strong and the weak would be so weak.

The thugs were lying on the ground screaming and groaning. Rong Yi patted his sleeves and walked over to ask him, "Are you hurt? Don't be afraid, you're fine now."

Li Mantao was unharmed, except for a few wrinkles on his collar. He shook his head obediently.

Rong Yi knew that the person was fine, so he put on a serious face and said, "Next time you encounter something like this, remember to tell me."

Li Mantao was impressed by his display of skill and said excitedly, "Hey, I have someone to back me up now. They definitely won't dare to bully me from now on."

Rong Yi helped him pick up his schoolbag and didn't respond to his flattery. She just said, "Go home."

The two walked out of the alley. Just after taking a few steps, Li Mantao heard a sound of breaking air. He turned around and saw Ci'ertou holding a wooden stick and swinging it hard at Rong Yi's right shoulder.

"Bang--!"

Li Mantao slowly opened his mouth, and for a moment his shock even overshadowed his anger.

The thorny head was also dumbfounded because the wooden stick actually broke.

Rong Yi frowned tightly, turned around as if nothing had happened, and stared at the prickly guy.

The prickly guy was really scared this time, and he quickly got out of the alley and ran away in a hurry.

Li Mantao came back to his senses and wanted to lift Rong Yi's collar to see if he was okay. Rong Yi dodged his hand and said calmly, "It's okay, the stick is not thick."

Li Mantao saw that he didn't seem to be in trouble, and seeing that the stick was indeed thin, he felt relieved.

The two walked side by side on the way home, and Rong Yi asked him, "Why did those people block you?"

Li Mantao didn't care: "They think grandpa is a rag picker. I'm just a little rag picker with no parents, so they look down on me."

Rong Yi didn't expect that Li Mantao was so sunny, but was ostracized in the class.

"But I don't care about them. They're just jealous of me, jealous that I'm popular with girls. And I don't feel sorry for myself at all. I have my grandfather." Li Mantao turned his head to look at Rong Yi and said with a smile, "Now, I still have you."

Li Mantao's smile was pure and innocent. Rong Yi looked at him, and something in his heart seemed to be hit, and he felt numb.

He lowered his eyes, forcing himself to ignore the feeling, and whispered, "Do you want to know why I was kidnapped by those people?"
