Chapter 15 Back to School
Just when everyone at school thought Xie Sheng might really drop out, he appeared on the playground on Monday morning with a leisurely pace.
What's even more surprising is that he was wearing a school uniform jacket.
"Quick, pinch me! Sheng-ge is here, and he's even wearing his school uniform!"
"Not bad, Mouse, you actually managed to persuade Brother Sheng."
Xie Sheng and his buddies were like Columbus discovering a new continent; they were so excited and thrilled. If it weren't for the morning meeting, they probably would have rushed over immediately.
Zhou Yuhao looked at the people around him with a complicated expression, unsure of what to say.
I thought to myself, I don't have that ability.
"Brother Sheng is wearing a school uniform, and my cousin is wearing a school uniform too. Will their whole class end up wearing school uniforms?"
"Speaking of which, I still want to ask Brother Sheng how he suddenly had a cousin. I've never heard of her before."
"Yeah, Mouse, is she really Sheng Ge's cousin?"
Zhou Haoyu: "..."
Why the hell are they asking me all these questions? Can I even answer them? Do I even dare to answer them?
"...I just shouted that out of the blue."
When these guys meet a beautiful woman, they often call her "little sister" or "older sister." When Zhou Haoyu said that, they just said "oh" and didn't ask any further questions.
Xie Sheng stood at the back of the class line, ignoring the uproar that was taking place.
Guan Yan, who was tall, also stood in the last row. She glanced at Xie Sheng several times, and finally couldn't help but ask, "What kind of new game is this?"
Xie Sheng glanced at Pu Xia standing not far ahead and said casually, "Turn over a new leaf and study hard."
Guan Yan scoffed at such an answer.
Nobody would believe that.
Following Xie Sheng's gaze, she found Pu Xia and gave him an "I see" look. "I heard Haozi and the others call Pu Xia their cousin."
Xie Sheng heard Pu Xia's name and then looked over. "When did you become so gossipy?"
"Just asking casually," Guan Yan smiled when she saw Xie Sheng's reaction. "Can't a legitimate girlfriend ask about her boyfriend?"
Hearing this made Xie Sheng angry. He stuck out his tongue and pressed it against his right cheek. "How long are you going to avoid him?"
"What, are you really falling for me?"
"Yes," Xie Sheng answered without hesitation.
Despite her arrogance, meanness, and bad temper, he was still irresistibly drawn to her; it was a primal impulse that could overwhelm any reason.
Just like now, not far ahead, Pu Xia, despite wearing a loose and baggy school uniform that covered her completely, could still easily arouse his desire. He knew how beautiful and sexy her body was under that school uniform, and he also knew how passionate her reactions could be under her cold exterior.
Xie Sheng swallowed hard, his gaze growing increasingly intense, revealing an undisguised determination and possessiveness.
Seeing Xie Shengru's expression as he stared at his prey, Guan Yan shrugged and couldn't help but feel a little sorry for Pu Xia.
"Okay, but how about next week?"
Xie Sheng chuckled softly, "You need to prepare yourself mentally?"
"After talking for so long, shouldn't you feel sad and upset at first?"
Xie Sheng twitched the corner of his mouth, revealing an expression that said, "Don't be annoying."
But he eventually agreed.
Guan Yan smiled brightly, "Thank you, Brother Sheng."
After saying that, she leaned closer to Xie Sheng's ear, revealing an ambiguous expression, "What's the situation between you and Pu Xia now?"
At this point, Xie Sheng perked up.
Oh, what's going on?
They made love in an incredibly pleasurable way, a pleasure you can't even imagine.
He had countless things he wanted to boast about, but after glancing at Pu Xia, he knew she wasn't as indifferent as he was, so he pursed his lips and said, "I think she likes me, but she just won't admit it."
Guan Yan: ......
But because she had received a lot of care from him in the past, she didn't dampen his enthusiasm. Instead, she asked, "Didn't you two make things clear?"
“I explained it clearly, but she still won’t admit that she’s one of my people. Just recently, she even had a fight with me about it.”
"What's all the fuss about?"
"You're saying I get all the good things by myself."
Guan Yan exclaimed "Ah!" and realized what she meant. "Right, you can't pursue her now."
Xie Sheng's eyebrows immediately rose upon hearing this; he couldn't stand any negative comments about them. But Guan Yan's next words calmed him down: "You have a girlfriend now, yet you're still flirting with other girls. How can you not cause trouble?"
"We're fake."
"She doesn't know. If she really likes you, she'll definitely make a scene. Who could stand that?"
For the first time ever, Xie Sheng tried to put himself in Xie Sheng's shoes.
Indeed, if Pu Xia had a boyfriend now, he would be furious and would do anything to ruin their relationship.
"But it's a good thing she's angry."
He lifted his eyelids, thinking that Guan Yan could indeed offer some constructive suggestions, and said, "Go on."
"Her anger means she cares."
She cares!
Xie Sheng's eyes flickered, his languidness vanished instantly, and he couldn't help but say in a low voice, "You're absolutely right."
This sound was somewhat abrupt at the morning meeting, and many people looked over.
Pu Xia also turned around and saw this scene—
The usually aloof and arrogant Xie Sheng chatted with the equally aloof Guan Yan with a smile. The two tall figures stood close together, the atmosphere relaxed and pleasant, a pleasing sight to behold.
Pu Xia felt a little depressed.
Many people around started gossiping quietly.
"Who said they don't look like a couple? Look how affectionate they are! Have you ever seen Brother Sheng smile at anyone like that? And when has Sister Yan ever spoken so much on her own initiative?"
"I guess it was Sister Yan who persuaded Xie Sheng to go back to school."
"A beautiful love story! She stayed with him for another year of study, and he turned back from his wrong path because of her."
Girls of this age love this kind of romance, especially when the two protagonists are so good-looking.
Pu Xia listened quietly, then turned his head away from them, his eyes dark and deep, as if giant waves were hidden at the bottom of the sea, waiting to surface.
