Chapter 224 I only want someone like you
"I understand." Ed nodded. "I need to contact Ley and find out the situation first."
For so many years, he had only seen Ley's name in some online reports and research reports.
I don’t know how Lei is doing.
He was poisoned by a strange poison and luckily survived. He must have had a tough time these years, right?
Ed felt depressed.
My own medical skills are not bad, right? Lei Yi would not come to discuss with him!
Ed really wanted to curse him, but he couldn't.
Lei is also pitiful enough.
Forget it, be magnanimous and forgive him!
If Lei could say a few nice words, I would help him find an antidote for the toxins in his body.
If he still has that sour face... then he will charge you!
After Ed got the contact information from Yu Manman, he looked at the short line of numbers.
Thinking back to when Lei was about to leave Kyushu University, he went to find Lei and told him that if he needed anything, he could come to him.
Even after he said that, Lei Yi just said "hmm" and left without even looking back! It really pissed him off!
Wasn't his implication obvious enough? He meant they could exchange contact information so they could get in touch easily! They could reconcile, sit down and talk, and become friends!
But Lei didn't understand what he meant at all!
If he hadn't heard it from Yu Manman, he would have thought Lei had forgotten him long ago!
"Manman...Is that what Lei told you about me?"
Ed raised his eyes and looked at Yu Manman.
Judging from his mouth, he probably can't say anything good, right?
Saying that you are inferior to him in every way?
Yu Manman opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Uh...Fourth Father actually considers you a friend..."
Ed couldn't help but want to curl his lips upwards, but he couldn't be too cocky, so he quickly pressed them down.
"Come on, how can you know what he's thinking?" Ed snorted. "Just tell the truth!"
"Ah..." Do you really want to say it?
Yu Manman looked at him quietly.
"Is there anything you can't say?" Ed looked at her, "You really said something bad about me!"
"No! Fourth Dad definitely didn't say anything bad about you!" Yu Manman promised.
I just told a little story, it’s not... considered bad words... right?
"So what did he say?"
Yu Manman whispered three words: "One hundred yuan..."
Ed was stunned for a moment, then he thought of something and his ears turned red.
One hundred dollars!!
What a great one hundred dollars!
Yu Manman knows all the details like this!
That guy Lei! He exposed all his past! How could he stand up straight in front of this young man from now on?
Damn it! I knew Lei wouldn't say anything nice! But... I insisted on getting to the bottom of it!
If he had known this earlier, he wouldn’t have asked!
"What one hundred dollars?" The person who came with Ed looked at Ed curiously.
What kind of charades are you talking about?
"Nothing!" Ed said immediately, "It's just that Ley cheated me out of a hundred dollars!"
Yu Manman blinked, "Yes..."
There's nothing wrong with what he said. It was indeed Fourth Dad who cheated Uncle Ed out of his money...
"Oh." I always feel that some stories have been omitted.
"Okay! I still have some things to finish in the lab, so I'll leave first!" Ed turned around and left, not wanting to stay any longer.
The people behind looked at each other.
Why does it feel like Professor Ed is embarrassed and angry? And the emphasis is on "embarrassed"!
It's strange. Professor Ed usually has a fierce face. When has he ever been embarrassed?
This made them even more curious about what happened between Ed King and Ley!
The more Ed thought about it, the more he blushed!
He looked at Lei's number on the computer and snorted!
No! He has to go and ask for justice!
Lei cheated me out of a hundred dollars back then, and now I must make him pay me back with interest!
Two hundred... No! One thousand will do!
Ed looked at Ley's number and reached out to dial it.
And at that moment, Ed suddenly regretted it! Oh, if he had known earlier, he should have given his number to Yu Manman and asked Yu Manman to pass it on to Lei Yi! Let Lei Yi contact him first!
Now when I contact him, I always feel like I’m at a disadvantage every time I fight him!
"Hello...who is this?"
While he was daydreaming, he had accidentally dialed the number!
Ed tensed.
He's not ready yet!
"Hello?"
"If you don't tell me, I'll hang up..."
"Wait!" Ed said quickly.
There was silence for a moment. "Ed King?"
"Oh, you still remember me!" Ed's tone immediately became sarcastic, without any need for pre-rehearsal...
"Manman came to see you?" Lei asked, "She gave you the contact information, right?"
"Oh, how else do you think I have your contact information?" Ed gritted his teeth. "You left so abruptly back then, without even leaving a phone number!"
“…You didn’t ask me for it.”
Depend on!
"If I don't ask you, can't you take the initiative?" Ed sneered. "Well, I'm your defeated opponent, so you have every right to look down on me!"
"I...I think you probably don't want to see me. After all, I've seen so many embarrassing things of yours..."
"If I didn't want to see you, why would I have gone to see you off when you left Kyushu University? What else would I do after eating?"
Lei was speechless for a moment.
"What do you mean?"
Lei had a vague guess, but didn't say anything.
"I wanted to be friends with you, don't you understand? Otherwise, I would have gone to see you?" Ed was almost furious. "Where has your brain gone to? I don't know how you found your wife!"
Lei was silent for a moment and then said, "I treated you so badly, why do you still want to be friends with me? I've seen you do a lot of embarrassing things..."
"Besides, you have so many friends around you, one more wouldn't make a difference."
Because I couldn't believe it, I pretended to know nothing and didn't think about it at all.
Ed's nose was almost crooked with anger. "I just want someone like you, okay? I'm a masochist, okay?"
"Really?" Lei asked in disbelief.
That doesn't seem to be completely unworkable...
"Ha, you're really good at climbing up the pole!" Ed's eyes blazed. "Back then, I just wanted to coax you into my arms. Once you thought we were friends, I'd teach you a lesson to avenge the hundred bucks!"
"Or you would think I'm a masochist!"
“…”
"Hey! Speak!" Ed frowned.
Was he too fierce? Did he scare Lei away?
"Oh, so that's how it is..." Lei said calmly.
So that's how it is?
Did Lei really believe it, or was he just trying to fool him?
Ed thought that sooner or later he would be pissed off to death by Lei!
Ed thought about it and thought, no, why did he make the call originally?
So suddenly, it seemed like she was trying to coax him? Shouldn't he be the one coaxing her?
