Chapter 14: An Ordinary Special Enrollment Student

Li You threw the cigarette in his hand to the ground. The butt fell into the puddle and went out with a hiss, leaving a thin puff of smoke. He was obviously surprised to see Ning Song and Pu Yu together. He kept looking at them, and when he saw the eldest young master's usual condescending attitude, the smile disappeared from his mouth.

Pu Yu wasn't as malicious as Qin Yi and his gang, but he wasn't popular because he kept to himself. He could also feel Pu Yu's indifference towards him... It was just coldness, not even dislike.

The eldest master looks down upon the world, and is as stingy in giving away his dislike as he is in giving away his likes.

"Are you still leaving?" Pu Yu asked Ning Song.

Ning Song nodded hurriedly.

Qiao Qiao said hurriedly: "You go back first, I will go to your dormitory to find you later."

Ning Song nodded, and said to Li You and the others with a smile, "I'll leave first."

After saying that, he walked towards the school with Pu Yu.

It was raining the heaviest at this moment, and it was windy and cold. The fine water vapor wet the tattoo on the back of Li You's hand.

Zheng Xiaobo said: "Master Pu is still so aloof."

I turned my head to look at Li You and found that Li You was still staring at the school gate.

His hair was shorter than before, probably because he had just shaved it this weekend. His scalp was exposed at his temples, making him look sharper and less gangster-like. His white scalp made him look a lot younger.

Zheng Xiaobo looked in the direction of his gaze and saw two figures, one tall and one short, with their shoulders rubbing against each other as they walked.

Of course he knew Pu Yu.

I don't know who the shorter one is, and his face is not very impressive. What impressed me most was his physique. It was almost impossible for him to hold up the Upper East School uniform. When the wind blew, his trousers stuck to his calves. It seemed that if Pu Yu hadn't blocked the wind for him, he would have been swallowed up by the storm.

"Your classmate?" he asked Qiao Qiao.

Before Qiao Qiao could answer, someone next to him said, "It's the bean sprouts from the harbor!"

Zheng Xiaobo was stunned for a moment, then immediately turned his head to look at Li You, then looked inside the school gate.

"He also...he is from the lower harbor?" he asked Li You hurriedly.

Li You curled his lips and asked Qiao Qiao: "Is he familiar with Master Pu?"

Qiao Qiao certainly would not betray Ning Song.

He has an average relationship with Li You, and they stand together purely because Zheng Xiaobo is here.

"We are in the same class, so of course we are familiar with each other," he said.

He knew that there was a lot of noise on the school forums right now, with everyone speculating about the relationship between Pu Yu and Ning Song.

But apart from finding out that it was a letter of recommendation written by Mrs. Pu to Ning Song, there was no more information.

"I'm leaving first. I have something to do with Aning." Qiao Qiao said as he quickly followed with an umbrella in his hand.

There were many white petals floating in the water on the ground, and the flowers of the white ash were destroyed beyond recognition by the rain. The rumbling spring thunder was dull and distant.

Qiao Qiao found that people were looking at Ning Song and Pu Yu along the way.

There was no way. Wherever Pu Yu went, he was the focus of the crowd. Even in such a dark and rainy day, his figure was easy to recognize.

It is tall and thin, and is unique in the entire Upper East School.

Because of Pu Yu, Ning Song is now more famous than the day he first arrived. He and Pu Yu have been discussing this on the forum since the afternoon. Now that everyone has arrived at school and has nothing to do, the discussion has reached a fever pitch.

Rainy days are perfect for gossiping in the dormitory.

Just now he saw someone taking secret photos of Pu Yu and Ning Song with a cell phone when they got off the car.

He followed behind, taking out his cell phone to check the latest forum developments as he walked.

Sure enough, the latest pictures have been updated to the forum, which is more timely than following the reports.

"Stop arguing, stop arguing. Look at what this is. It's nothing to take it away. We came back together!"

"Is this the rhythm of being together for the whole afternoon?"

"I was wondering, how could a poor kid from the slums get into our school? Turns out he has a backer."

"But how can this guy be related to the Pu family? There can't be a single poor relative in the Pu family for eighteen generations, right?"

"This is the first time I see Prince Pu walking with someone holding an umbrella in school."

"Look at the curve of the umbrella. It's tilted so much towards the poor boy. Even my boyfriend is not so considerate!"

"You used the word 'caring' to describe Pu Daxi? You really scared me!"

"Ning Song is finished. How many people who have a crush on Pu Daxi can tear him apart?!"

Bro, you scared me with what I said!

Qiao Qiao quickly put away his phone and quickened his pace.

Ning Song also noticed the gazes of others.

When he and Pu Yu had no relationship, Pu Yu gave him a strong sense of security. Now that they have a relationship, Pu Yu brings him great danger.

He is not an innocent little boy, and of course he knows the benefits of associating with Pu Yu. But can he become friends with Pu Yu?

He couldn't imagine that scene.

Putting aside the difference in status, there is also a huge difference in personality between him and Pu Yu.

He can flirt with [Sanma] who has the same personality as him, but he wouldn't dare to flirt with Pu Yu.

The two of them walked towards the dormitory building in silence. Ning Song touched the umbrella in his handbag and was thinking about how to find an excuse to hit his umbrella when he heard Pu Yu ask, "Are you familiar with Li You?"

"Ah?" Ning Song was stunned for a moment and said, "I'm not familiar with him."

Ning Song asked back, "Are you familiar with him?"

Pu Yu said: "No one spoke."

Just when Ning Song thought their conversation was about to end, Pu Yu suddenly said, "Stay away from him."

Ning Song was surprised that he would say this to her. She hummed and said, "We didn't have much in common."

Footsteps came from behind. Qiao Qiao chased after them, stepping through the puddles and shouting, "Aning!"

Ning Song and Pu Yu both looked back and stopped to wait for Qiao Qiao to catch up with them.

It was the first time he saw Qiao Qiao being so reserved. He waved at Pu Yu and said, "Hi."

Pu Yu didn't react either.

Ning Song seemed to come alive when he saw Qiao Qiao, and even his voice was full of intimacy: "You're home?"

"It's boring for me to stay in school alone. Deng Xun happened to invite Zheng Xiaobo and others to dinner, so I went over." Qiao Qiao walked forward first, saying to Ning Song as he walked, "I'm going to your dormitory."

"Okay, I also brought you some snacks that my mother made herself." Ning Song said.

Qiao Qiao smiled: "Then we really have the same mind. I also brought you some milk cookies!"

Then he took a step forward and said, "I'll get one for you."

Ning Song actually did not refuse him and immediately gave him the paper bag of nutritional supplements.

“So much food?”

"And some nutritional supplements."

Ning Song realized that the young master had not said anything, so he pulled him in obediently, "Brother Yu gave it to me."

Qiao Qiao looked at Pu Yu's face with a smile, but Pu Yu still had no expression, and Qiao Qiao felt a little at a loss.

Pu Yu added: "My mother gave it to you."

Pu Yu himself could sense the discomfort of Ning Song and Qiao Qiao. The two of them were usually very talkative and would hang out together during breaks in class.

Now you are so restrained, of course it's because of my presence.

So when they were almost at the overpass, he said to Ning Song, "I won't take you to the dormitory."

"No need to send me off, no need to send me off." Ning Song immediately reached for his umbrella, as if he had been impatient for a long time.

Pu Yu pursed his lips and watched Ning Song take a step to the side and fully open his umbrella. The umbrella exploded in the heavy rain, splashing water in all directions.

Pu Yu was walking towards the overpass alone, and Ning Song noticed that the hand that was not holding the umbrella was wet, and the color of his sleeve was obviously darker.

The rain was too heavy. Pu Yu should have tried to tilt the umbrella towards him.

Only after Pu Yu walked away did Qiao Qiao breathe a sigh of relief.

Ning Song glanced at him, and they both laughed knowingly.

"You stayed at Pu's house for the whole afternoon?" Qiao Qiao asked, "You're going to be famous again. I've been on the forum all day, and they're digging up you."

Ning Song said, "Haven't I been stripped yet?"

He thought he had been stripped of everything by those people.

"They are now digging into your relationship with the Pu family." Qiao Qiao said.

Ning Song feels that it doesn't matter.

Let them pick it up as they please.

Anyway, he is now the lowest class person in the entire Upper East School, and he can't get any worse.

The fact was just as he expected. After digging around, those people finally found out that his parents were suspected to be working for the Pu family. But he was originally from a slum, and his family background had already been ridiculed. Working for the Pu family and having a little connection with the Pu family was actually better than they thought!

"I told you, he came out of the harbor like a nobody, how could he be related to the Pu family? The Pu family has no poor relatives for 18 generations!"

"Some people even speculated about his relationship with Pu Yu, suggesting that they were having an affair. It's hilarious!"

"Hahahahaha, the most unlikely scenario is that there's something going on between the two of them. He said that on purpose just to step on Bean Sprouts."

"You made me worry for a long time. I thought Mr. Darcy was a skeleton lover! It turns out to be the eldest master and his servant!"

Ning Song yawned as he watched.

He is completely immune to such talk.

If you say he's bad at gaming, he'd probably get mad, but it's just something he doesn't care about.

He was too lazy to look at it any longer, so he drew the curtains and bed curtains, turned off the lights, and lay down heavily.

He has a poor physical condition. It was raining and a bit cold today, and he felt like he was catching a cold. He was very cautious and immediately made himself a cold medicine and drank it as soon as he felt something was wrong.

There was a sweet and bitter taste in his mouth. He listened to the sound of rain and thunder outside and closed his eyes. When he felt sleepy, his cell phone vibrated. He pried up his eyelids and took a look, and saw a text message.

It was a message from an unfamiliar number. The message contained only a few words, saying: "Eat less fruit at night, it will damage your spleen and stomach."

Soon another message came: "Eat less dairy products."

Ning Song was drowsy and replied, "Who are you?"

After a long while, the other party replied: "Pu Yu."

Ning Song's heart was moved.

I remembered that Pu Yu called him when I went to the swimming pool in the afternoon.

"Sorry, I forgot to save your number." He replied sleepily.

Pu Daxi replied: "Nothing."

"You should go to bed early."

He was surprised that Pu Yu was so taciturn that he would send him messages in the middle of the night to tell him these things. When he thought about the words he had just seen on the forum that said there was a world of difference between him and Pu Yu, he felt even more strange, as if his body had become lighter, as if he was floating in the clouds.

But my head became heavier and I felt sleepier.

For a moment, he saw a vision of [Sanma].

When I first got to know it, the word "Sanma" was actually quite cool. At that time, the word "Sanma" was concise and to the point.

Although my words are still brief and to the point now, they are much gentler. Last time, I asked him to take care of himself. Sometimes the environment around us is too hostile, and the kindness of strangers on the Internet can be more heartwarming.

He was groggy and confused for a moment, and replied to Pu Yu in the same tone as he was replying to [Sanma]: "Thank you for your concern, Xiaoyuer."

I clicked send with my finger and fell into a deep sleep.

【Author’s words】

Pu Yu: You actually fell asleep like this.
