Chapter 13
Wen Jiuze doesn't care about anyone and doesn't like to join in the boring bustle.
He accidentally ran into the scene where Xue Ling was confessed to. Because he found out that the protagonist of the farce was the girl that his annoying cousin liked, he stopped with a little interest and watched the fun for a while with his hands in his pockets lazily.
Embarrassment and difficulty were clearly written on Xue Ling's face. She looked like she wanted to interrupt and refuse, but she didn't say anything. She waited for the boy to finish his stupid speech with an awkward smile.
He has an extremely good temper.
Suddenly, she saw him in the crowd and her eyes flashed.
Wen Jiuze actually enjoyed seeing her being embarrassed and unable to save herself from the situation, and he even took pleasure in her misfortune.
He thought maliciously, it's what he deserves. If he doesn't stand up at this time, will anyone come to save him?
In Wen Jiuze's 19 years of life, the truth he understood best was: No one will save you, and no one can save you, you can only save yourself.
There was a subtle urge for help in her eyes and she looked around unconsciously, but it seemed that no one received her weak signal for help.
Finally, she and Wen Jiuze looked at each other.
Just think of it as a token of my gratitude for the bread I treated him to last time, Wen Jiuze thought, and stepped forward to kick away a cup of milk tea, forcibly ending this confession.
After watching the exciting scene, he originally wanted to disperse with the crowd, but when Xue Ling was cleaning the scene with tools, he looked up at him from time to time, again and again, as if he wanted to say something to him.
Wen Jiuze was also a little curious about what she wanted to say, so he sat there waiting idly.
After receiving a boring thank you, Wen Jiuze smiled but felt a little impatient.
He said the words "Be my girlfriend" with malicious intent. His original intention was to hate her, but she was stunned for a moment and actually nodded.
Wen Jiuze looked at her for a moment and thought she looked stupid, as if her brain wasn't working.
It was just a casual remark, and it seemed that it shouldn't be taken seriously. But when he looked at Xue Ling's face that showed she knew nothing, Wen Jiuze had a dark thought in his heart.
Doesn’t Wen Xuan like her?
If Wen Xuan knew that Xue Ling was with him, he would be so angry that he would go crazy.
So he smiled, looked at Xue Ling and thought: Who asked you to agree? It's your own bad luck.
Being my girlfriend will cause you trouble.
He was not serious about being her boyfriend. He just didn't like her temper at first and was just looking for trouble to annoy her.
Xue Ling is not someone who never gets angry as they say. She just doesn't dare to show it when she is angry. She pretends not to be angry and then holds it in.
Wen Jiuze looked at her, curious about what she would look like if she couldn't hold it in anymore and got really angry.
I think it will be interesting.
He had no interest in anything, but gradually he became very interested in making Xue Ling angry.
His perseverance was effective, but he didn't expect that the first time he saw Xue Ling lose her temper was because of him.
Wen Xuan was furious when he learned that Xue Ling was with him. He was so angry that he gave him a lecture.
The wound on his face was seen by Xue Ling. She didn't say anything at the time, but turned around and found their school and took the initiative to talk to Wen Xuan.
"You went to Wen Jiuze again, didn't you? If you beat him up because he's a bastard, I think your excuse is untenable."
"Shouldn't your uncle be blamed more? Why didn't you beat up your morally corrupt uncle? Is it because you didn't dare? And you are just his cousin, not his biological brother. What does it have to do with you?"
"Why should I be with Wen Jiuze?"
"I heard you talk about me with others. You think I'm virtuous and sensible, right? Your requirement for a woman is that she should be virtuous and sensible? Then my requirement for a man is that he should act like a man. Wen Jiuze meets my requirements better than you, so I chose him."
"You'd better stop bullying Wen Jiuze. I filmed the last time you beat him up in the woods."
"If I find you beating him again, I will post the video on the forums of several nearby schools and send it to your classmates and friends and people in the student union so that everyone can see how ugly you look when you hit someone."
“…”
They were talking while standing under a big tree next to the library. Coincidentally, Wen Jiuze was sitting in the corridor window above their heads, smoking, and listened to the whole thing.
He saw his cousin, whose ferocious and evil nature was exposed to him, had his face turned liver-colored after being blocked by Xue Ling, then red and black, and black and blue. It was extremely exciting.
He almost couldn't help laughing out loud, and at the same time he felt it was a bit ridiculous. He thought Xue Ling wouldn't dare to say a harsh word to others, but he didn't expect that she was quite good at sarcasm.
He stood at the window and saw Wen Xuan shaking with anger. He also saw Xue Ling walk a distance away and suddenly couldn't hold it anymore. She raised her hand and beat her chest with a look of lingering fear. She even looked back, as if she was afraid that Wen Xuan would catch up and beat her.
You're so scared, yet you dare to come over and say something harsh?
Xue Ling kept breaking his initial impression.
Not long after the two confirmed their relationship, Xue Ling took the initiative to propose living together.
Wen Jiuze didn't expect her to make such a request, because at that time, the two of them had never even held hands twice.
She seemed to be the reserved and conservative type who absolutely could not accept a relationship progressing too quickly.
But she found him and took the initiative to say, "I'm renting a house nearby and I have a vacant room. Can you stay there?"
"Why?" Wen Jiuze didn't understand why she suddenly made such a request.
"Because... I don't feel safe living there alone. Recently, strangers have been hanging around my door. I'm a little scared."
When Wen Jiuze returned to the dormitory, his roommate Fang Xianwen came over and took credit for the success, saying:
"A girl came to see you yesterday. She was the girl that my cousin Wen Xuan liked. She also asked about your situation. I guess she was here to find out about your situation for my cousin."
"So I told her, 'Brother Ze, you have a terrible life. You are ostracized by everyone in the dormitory. All your things in the dormitory are thrown away. They also don't let you go back to sleep, so you often sleep on the street.' This way, if she tells my cousin about it, we won't reveal it."
Wen Jiuzhe: "..."
Now I know why Xue Ling invited him to live with her.
"That's a good point. Don't say it next time. I'll just treat you as dumb."
Wen Jiuze patted Fang Xianwen on the shoulder and said, "Besides, she is my girlfriend now."
Fang Xianwen was stunned: "Ah? What?"
Although it was a misunderstanding, Wen Jiuze still moved in and lived with Xue Ling.
I didn't see the stranger she mentioned who was lingering at the door, but I did see a middle-aged man who always chatted with her in the elevator.
The people in Wen Jiuze's dormitory were very afraid of him. As long as he was in the dormitory, they dared not speak loudly. Especially when he came back injured, the others did not dare to stay in the school and would rather live outside and leave the dormitory for him.
Compared to these timid boys, Xue Ling was strange. She was not afraid of him, even though he was tall and did not have the temperament of a good person.
She seemed to feel that he was someone who needed to be cared for and protected.
Even though I am not even as tall as his shoulders, I have an inexplicable desire to protect him.
At the same time, she became more and more skilled at losing her temper with him.
The time she spoke the loudest and got angry at him was because he ate an eight-inch cake she brought back on his birthday and a rash broke out on his arm.
She couldn't stand it anymore and yelled at him: "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you were allergic to eggs? You knew you were allergic to eggs, but you still ate so much?!"
"Didn't you say that we must finish eating?" Wen Jiuze asked while sitting on the sofa.
"I didn't know you were allergic to eggs! Why didn't you tell me? Are you stupid?!"
"What's there to say? It's just an allergy and it will be gone soon." Wen Jiuze didn't know why she was angry. She was even angrier than being chased by a dog.
He has been allergic to eggs since he was a child. His family was poor at that time, so his mother would always save the eggs for him to eat.
When I was a child, this allergy was more serious. I would have difficulty breathing after eating eggs. But my mother didn't know what allergy was. Like many parents, she thought eggs were nutritious and good things, so why couldn't I eat them?
As I grew older, this allergy got better, except for a few rashes after eating products containing eggs.
For Wen Jiuze, who often suffers from injuries on his body, there is no need to pay attention to minor problems such as allergic rashes.
I never paid attention to him since I was little. He ate eggs as usual and he was fine. Others didn't care, and he didn't care either. He ate whatever he had, bread and eggs.
But the day she found out that he was allergic to eggs, Xue Ling scolded him, bought him some allergy medicine, and urged him to take it.
She grasped his arm, frowned, and touched his rash.
"Does it still itch now?"
I didn't feel it before, but when she poked me with her finger, that patch of skin suddenly started to itch.
Her fingers were cool, her fingertips were soft, and the touch was sharp, awakening some sensations that I had never noticed before.
That night, he kept scratching his arms unconsciously, leaving long red marks, which was the only way to suppress the itchiness.
Afterwards, Xue Ling never bought bread or cakes for her home again. She even had to check carefully whether it was egg noodles when buying noodles at the supermarket.
"…Is it necessary to be so careful?"
She looked over the ingredient list without looking up. "Of course it has."
He followed her silently, carrying the heavy shopping basket in one hand, with a strange feeling in his heart.
"Xue Ling."
"Um?"
"If you feel sorry for a man, your life will be unhappy." Just like his mother.
Xue Ling turned around and glared at him angrily: "You're at it again, aren't you? Do you feel uncomfortable if you don't see me angry for a day?"
"Xue Ling."
"What are you doing again?"
"You must never be someone's good wife and mother in the future."
Wen Jiuze thought, if she took care of someone like this in the future and turned that man into a childish waste, she would have a hard life.
He felt uncomfortable just thinking about it.
Xue Ling rolled her eyes at the condiments on the shelf and said numbly, "Okay, okay, I won't be a good wife and mother. I'll let you be one. You can be a good wife and mother in the future."
I don't know what the dog is barking at every day.
Wen Jiuze didn't know when his attitude towards Xue Ling changed from disliking her to liking her. When he noticed it, he found that he disliked Wen Xuan even more.
Because Wen Xuan liked Xue Ling for this reason, he found Wen Xuan's presence even more unbearable.
Why would a guy like Wen Xuan like Xue Ling?
On the first day of his relationship with Xue Ling, Wen Jiuze thought: I don't like her like this, she is weak and has no temper and allows herself to be bullied.
On the hundredth day of his relationship with Xue Ling, Wen Jiuze thought: I don't like her like this. It would be better if she became irritable and bad-tempered and didn't care about others. That way, no one would take advantage of her and she wouldn't attract trashy men anymore.
He himself is also in the category of trash men.
…………
The smoke died down and the sun began to emerge in outline, lighting up the field.
Wen Jiuze came back to his senses from his memories.
He finally got back on his bike and returned to the yard where he had parked his bike.
The gate was still locked. He unlocked it and as he approached the car, he felt his heartbeat quickening and weighing heavily on his chest.
It seemed as if at this moment he was truly reunited with someone he hadn't seen for a long time.
After stopping in front of the car door for a while, he opened the back seat door first.
Xue Ling curled up in the corner, motionless.
Wen Jiuze looked at her, not knowing how to start talking.
Suddenly his eyes swept over a small box on the seat, which was a box of anti-allergy medicine.
He remembered clearly that it was not in the car before.
