Chapter 8 Chapter 8
A University.
The early morning is bright and full of vitality.
Lu Yi was waiting on the roadside in front of the busy girls' dormitory building, carrying the breakfast he had bought early in the morning.
There were some men and women chatting and joking sweetly around, and some girls were preparing to go to eat or attend classes in groups.
Lu Yi was very envious of the young couples holding hands and talking and laughing.
He likes Bai Minmin, which is something many people know, but it is also well known that Bai Minmin doesn't like him.
But what could he do? Love came from nowhere, but it was deep and lasting. He really wanted to be Minmin's protector, to guard this girl who made him so distressed.
"Minmin! I'm here!" Seeing his sweetheart coming out of the dormitory building, Lu Yi hurriedly ran up to her, smiling like a big, honest dog.
Bai Minmin naturally saw him as well. After a barely perceptible frown, she gave him a surprised smile.
"Brother Lu Yi."
The boy's appearance is not bad, he can even be said to be a handsome guy. He is 1.9 meters tall, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a high nose bridge. He is a very outstanding athlete.
But Bai Minmin doesn't like it.
There are many reasons why I don't like this kind of thing. It's not mysterious at all. It's just that the appearance, family background, personality, etc. are not to my liking.
That's what Lu Yi is like.
Compared to many people, Lu Yi can be considered a very outstanding boy, but that depends on who he is compared with. Bai Minmin can recite Xia Peizhi's experience with her eyes closed. Compared with Xia Peizhi, Lu Yi is really nothing.
What's more, the most important thing is that Lu Yi likes her, and it has reached the level of a bootlicker. Bai Minmin feels that there is really no need for her to spend any more time on Lu Yi. After all, no matter what she does, Lu Yi will stand firmly by her side.
But she still enjoyed and was proud of Lu Yi's concern, but sometimes she felt it was noisy.
"Minmin, I heard... you cried yesterday? Did something happen again?" Lu Yi felt distressed when he saw Bai Minmin, whose eyes were still a little swollen but looked even more pitiful.
It would have been fine if he didn't ask, but as soon as he asked, Bai Minmin's eyes turned red again.
Lu Yi was extremely anxious. "What's going on? Tell me what's going on and I'll help you. Minmin, don't keep it to yourself!"
But the more he asked, the more Bai Minmin cried.
Bai Minmin really lives up to the saying that women are made of water. She can cry whenever she wants. This is probably a skill she has acquired since childhood.
After all, there was a patient at home who was as old as she was. Sometimes, people would always take extra care of the weaker ones, but she couldn't accept that at all. She just wanted her parents to pay all their attention to her. So, playing the good girl and acting pitiful became her specialty. She would get anxious if she didn't sing for three days. She felt wronged from the bottom of her heart, because she had resented Bai Ruoruo's existence more than once, and she didn't think she had done anything wrong.
"Minmin, tell me what's the matter!" Lu Yi was almost going crazy.
Bai Minmin said in a hoarse voice, "It's okay, it's really okay!" But the sadness on her face became more and more obvious. Her soft hair was blown by the wind, and strands of hair came out from behind her ears. She turned her face to the side, which was a good enough angle.
Bai Minmin cried bitterly while feeling disgusted with Lu Yi in her heart. This man had no other way to coax her except asking her questions without any tact. Fortunately, she looked down on him, otherwise she would be angry if she was with him.
But when she thought of Xia Peizhi again, her tears flowed even more freely. Shameful! So shameful! Having her disguised "confession" overheard was one thing, but to have her secret thoughts exposed in front of the person she loved, and to have her senior treat Bai Ruoruo differently, she had no idea how painful it was!
Women have very accurate intuition about whether their loved ones like them or like other women. The look in Xia Peizhi's eyes when he looked at Bai Ruoruo was the reason for Bai Minmin's panic.
Not to mention Bai Minmin's possessiveness and jealousy were extremely strong. Even if Xia Peizhi wasn't special to Bai Ruoruo, she couldn't stand it even if he said it.
Under Lu Yi's straight-man comfort, it took about half an hour before Bai Minmin stammered and told the whole story of her knitting version.
According to Bai Minmin's description, it was her sister who fell in love with Xia Peizhi at first sight and interfered when she was confessing her feelings, which made her feel a little overwhelmed and disappointed.
"Brother Lu Yi, you know, I've liked Senior Xia for a long time. I really like him. I finally had the opportunity to meet him and mustered up the courage to confess to him, but Ruo Ruo... And I know Senior Xia is excellent, but why is it like this... It was clearly me who met Senior Xia first."
"But Ruoruo is my sister... She is my sister! I know I should give in to her, and this time is no exception... I'm just really sad..."
Lu Yi did know before that Bai Minmin had a lover. He was sad and even a little angry about it, but when he remembered that Minmin had only regarded him as her best friend from the beginning, and that it was he who had put Minmin in an awkward position, he couldn't bear to say anything.
Seeing Bai Minmin crying like this, he felt even more distressed. He also had no good impression of the "sister" Bai Minmin mentioned. Of course, he had no good impression of the girl named Bai Ruoruo a long time ago, but now he only felt even more disgusted with her!
Lu Yi knew that Bai Ruoruo had liked bullying Minmin since she was a child. Relying on her heart disease, she would snatch everything from Minmin. But he didn't expect that she would even snatch the person Minmin liked.
Why didn't he suddenly die of his illness? Why keep such a scourge alive? The saying that scourges can last for a thousand years is true. He can still live to this day with a congenital heart disease.
"Don't be sad, Minmin, don't worry, you are such a good person, Xia..." He wanted to say that Senior Xia would not dislike Minmin unless he was blind.
But thinking of Senior Xia, whose name is Xia Peizhi and who is on the rich list, Lu Yi scratched his head and swallowed his words.
It's true that he likes Bai Minmin, but even though he likes her... there are some things he really can't say.
And to be honest, the reason why he knew that Bai Minmin liked Xia Peizhi and stayed by her side, taking care of her and helping her diligently, was because he felt that there was no possibility between Bai Minmin and Xia Peizhi.
"Minmin, believe me, you are really excellent! Don't be sad! Although she is your sister, you don't have to give in to her in everything."
"But she is my sister, and she is not in good health..."
"Minmin, you are just too kind!" Lu Yi was very disappointed with her.
Bai Minmin sobbed softly, then gradually calmed down. She couldn't help but murmur, "It would be great if Ruoruo fell in love with someone else. If she could find someone she truly loved, she wouldn't... Oh, how is this possible! How could she fall in love with someone else after meeting Senior Xia?"
Lu Yi fell into deep thought.
"Brother Lu Yi, Brother Lu Yi? What's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, I just think you're right." Lu Yi smiled cheerfully.
"Well, it's getting late. I'm going back to the dorm to wash my face. I have to go to class soon."
Lu Yi: "Breakfast, Nuo. I forgot to give it to you when you started crying."
"Thank you, Brother Lu Yi. I'll treat you to hotpot next time!"
Lu Yi: "No, no, I just..."
"Friends need give and take to maintain a long-lasting relationship! Brother Lu Yi, you are not allowed to shirk your responsibility!"
"Okay!" Lu Yi smiled happily.
