Chapter 27 Why are you holding me and the two of us sitting side by side, with our arms...
The two of them sat side by side, their arms lazily placed on the table. Xie Shi frowned, hesitated for a moment, and tentatively moved his arm half an inch, and their arms touched each other.
Almost at the same moment when the two people's bodies touched, those irritating voices in his heart disappeared, and his ears were filled with a long-lost and unprecedented moment of silence.
Perhaps it was to force him to accept those female gamblers. He had already discovered that physical contact could prevent him from hearing those voices.
It’s just that he had never used this setting in any previous world.
It was as if it was a kind of stubborn persistence. He would rather be tortured to death by headaches than sell his body or touch them against his will.
But at this moment, this action naturally made him stunned - he was slightly stunned, and then he could only tell himself that it was probably because this person was too noisy, noisier than anyone he had met before.
Xie Shi maintained that position, his chin resting on his arm, intending to catch up on some sleep. However, as soon as he closed his eyes, the arm he had touched moved half an inch away, gently avoiding contact between them.
As she moved her arm away, the dense voices in her heart filled her ears again. Xie Shi frowned slightly, then quietly moved half an inch closer, and their elbows touched again.
Xie Shi closed his eyes, and the long-lost clarity of voice came to his ears. A hazy feeling of sleepiness came over him, and his heart settled down.
He closed his eyes and was completely unaware of the strange look from the person beside him - Lin Xicai's gaze moved from his face to the place where their elbows met, and then from the place where their elbows met back to that handsome and cold face, with a strange expression.
After a moment's silence, as if to verify, Lin Xicai moved her elbow on the desk half an inch to the right again, breaking away from his touch.
As she moved her elbow away, her crazy deskmate, who was originally drowsy, suddenly frowned.
Then she saw Xie Shi's arm move under her nose, then slowly caught up with her arm and pressed against her again.
Lin Xicai: “…”
Ah, this...
What is this doing?
Lin Xicai felt a chill in her heart and moved to the side again - this time a long way.
As she expected, Xie Shi's arm moved and moved a little closer to her, but because she deliberately moved a little too far this time, he did not touch her as expected.
Seeing this, Lin Xicai couldn't help but smile softly, and couldn't help but complain in her heart: You almost take up three-quarters of the two tables. If I don't make trouble for you, don't think I'm easy to bully...
Lin Xicai was chattering in her heart, and the next moment, the man suddenly reached out and grabbed her left wrist with his right hand.
His hands were colder than hers, and the chill where their skin touched made her shiver slightly.
Lin Xicai was startled and subconsciously tried to pull her wrist away, but his strength was too great. No matter how she struggled, the bony hand still held her tightly.
Xie Shi closed his eyes and never opened them. His heroic brows were furrowed in displeasure, but he held her wrist tightly.
Lin Xicai didn't dare to struggle too hard, for fear of causing a loud noise and being laughed at by others. After failing to break free, she had to settle for the next best thing and put her hands under the table in a panic.
This time, Xie Shi didn't go crazy. He obediently followed her hand and dropped it under the table.
But even if their hands fell together, he still held her, always...
Lin Xicai didn't know what was wrong with him, but she could feel that there was no trace of ambiguity in this action, so she didn't feel much discomfort, but more puzzled.
The bell rang for the end of get out of class, and the person next to me finally opened his eyes lazily.
But he still didn't let go of her hand.
Lin Xicai couldn't stand it any longer. Unable to speak, she directly slapped a small note to him: [Why are you holding me?]
Xie Shi didn't say anything, just glanced at the small note lightly and gave her a look that said, "Does a bad person like me need a reason to do anything?"
Lin Xicai: “…”
Lin Xicai was in tears.
She felt that her life was a bit miserable.
In every sense.
She thought it was just a whim of his, but Lin Xicai sadly discovered that from that day on, he was like a rogue who had tasted the sweetness and would grab her hand whenever he had the chance.
I especially like to hold her hand while sleeping.
Lin Xicai felt very strange. She struggled repeatedly but failed repeatedly.
Fortunately, this person did not do anything excessive, and he only grabbed her left hand, which did not affect her turning pages and writing. Later, she let it go and regarded this behavior as a quirk of the male protagonist.
Angry, helpless, and finally numb.
In return, this person started to help her with some small things for the first time.
Of course, even if he wanted to help her, his attitude would be extremely strange and weird.
For example, during the break, Zhu Hongfei went to the water room to get some water. He took his own cup and Lu Zixin's cup. When he left, he saw Lin Xicai leaning over the table to do her homework. He kindly called out to Lin Xicai, "The desk in front of you, let me get you a cup too."
Lin Xicai straightened up, and upon hearing this, her fingers paused between the two cups on the table, picked up one of them and handed it over. Zhu Hongfei happily took it and was about to walk out.
However, before he could move, Lin Xicai suddenly spoke from the side: "He has a criminal record."
Zhu Hongfei's eyes widened and he stopped in his tracks. Lin Xicai turned to look at him, also confused. She blinked and gestured with her hands, questioning, "What criminal record?"
"Spitting into someone else's water cup." Xie Shi said in a flat tone.
Lin Xicai's body stiffened and her expression instantly turned bad.
She would never let anyone touch the cup she usually drank water from. This was just a cup she used to fetch water to clean the table and water the cactus. But think about it, even if it was her cactus drinking his saliva, it would be quite disgusting...
Lin Xicai grinned here, and Zhu Hongfei's old face turned red and he couldn't remain calm anymore.
Zhu Hongfei hadn't expected this evil spirit to suddenly bring up such trivial matters. He opened his mouth and mumbled in self-defense, "I was just joking with Lao Lu. He's vomited on me before, but how could I possibly do this to a little girl..."
Regardless of his excuses, Lin Xicai immediately took back her cup and typed a few words on her phone with a smile: [Dude, your criminal record is a bit scary. I appreciate your kindness.]
Zhu Hongfei: “…”
Xie Shi stood up expressionlessly, one hand in his uniform pocket and the other casually resting on the table. After a moment of silence, he stared at her and said solemnly, "I don't have any."
Lin Xicai was confused and looked at her deskmate hesitantly - nothing?
Xie Shi pursed his lips, seeming a little impatient, "I won't spit."
Lin Xicai still didn’t quite understand—so what?
She stared at him for a while, and noticed that his eyes fell on her water cup awkwardly. She was stunned for a moment, and tentatively handed the cup to her.
Xie Shi snorted, took the cup from her hand, and walked out of the classroom coldly.
The three people present looked at each other in shock.
Zhu Hongfei stared at Xie Shi's disappearing figure. After a while, he mumbled, "Was I blind just now?"
Lu Zixin was also a little dazed: "I seem to be blind too."
Zhu Hongfei came back to his senses, as if he had suddenly realized something. He gave Lin Xicai a sinister look and said, "So Brother Xie condescended to talk me down just to get you some water?"
Lu Zixin, who was standing by, couldn't help himself and laughed so hard that his body shook uncontrollably: "Hahahaha, I can't hold it anymore. I'm almost dying of laughter."
"You're quite good," Zhu Hongfei said with a gossipy look in his eyes. "I declare that I now have a new respect for you. You're truly remarkable. Others can't stand sitting next to him for three days, but you're so good that you're even ordering him around."
Did I order him around? Lin Xicai twitched the corners of her lips. Why did I feel like I was robbed just now?
Then, in front of everyone's shocked and surprised eyes, the tall and stern-looking man came back with her pink and white rabbit-shaped water cup, and placed the cup on her table with an expressionless face.
Her cold and aloof temperament didn't quite match that touch of pink, giving off a strange, out-of-place vibe. Not to mention others, even Lin Xicai herself found it incredibly strange...
For example, their class took turns cleaning the blackboard every day. When it was Lin Xicai's turn, the person would ask calmly, "Can you reach it?"
The first time he spoke like this, Lin Xicai thought he was making fun of her height and cursed him in her heart. It was not until he took the eraser from her hand with a stiff look on his face that she realized, oh, this person probably wanted to help her erase the blackboard.
After a while, Lin Xicai also mastered some rules, and gradually he was able to extract his original intention through his clumsy and rough expression.
Lin Xicai regarded his behavior as a return of favor - she compromised with his special fetish as a male protagonist and let him hold her wrist while sleeping, and in return, he helped her do these things.
Although the world labeled him as antisocial from the beginning, Lin Xicai felt that this label was not accurate. He was more like a wild beast that had been away from the human race for too long and had lost some of the social skills that others were accustomed to. He looked a bit fierce, but was actually not very dangerous.
In contrast...
Lin Xicai snorted coldly. She hated those scum in human skin even more.
Li Ci was a scumbag, and he was surrounded by a bunch of scumbags. Among his supporters, there was a girl who inexplicably set her sights on him.
Perhaps it was a girl's sensitivity and intuition. Even though the police did not suspect her, the girl was almost certain that Li Ci's disappearance was related to her.
The girl's name is Zeng Jinghuan, and she is one of Li Ci's ex-girlfriends. According to Xu Tian, this person was once a good student with excellent character and academic performance. She was in the same school and class as Li Ci and was pursued vigorously by Li Ci. She refused to escape at first, but after all, she was young and had a girlish heart, so she could not escape his careful trap.
The rest of the story is that her grades plummeted because of her relationship with Li Ci, and she could not go back to her original life because of eating, drinking and having fun with Li Ci. Then Li Ci got tired of her and broke up with her. The girl could not accept it and tried every means to win her back.
——Until one day Li Ci appeared in front of her with another girl, and she finally stopped crying.
But she seemed to be trapped deeper in this twisted relationship than any previous one. She found Li Ci and said that she wanted to be with him and they could continue to be friends.
Li Ci agreed for some reason, so after that, she became one of the questionable people around him.
She hung out with those little hooligans and became the kind of person she once hated the most.
Lin Xicai remembered that she seemed to have seen this beautiful face among those people in that damp alley.
Everyone has their own choices. Lin Xicai didn't want to say much, but this person was almost crazy about Li Ci's disappearance, and she was neurotically convinced that this matter was related to her.
This person came to the school to look for Lin Xicai twice, and later stopped her several times at the school gate. Although her attacks on her were still limited to verbal threats, Lin Xicai felt very annoyed and did not want to deal with it. So, after weighing the pros and cons, Lin Xicai got into the Fu family's car again.
For her own safety and to get some peace and quiet away from these people, Lin Xicai started going to and from school with Fu Xuefan again.
She had expected her to mock her even more fiercely, but unexpectedly, Fu Xuefan's mockery this time was much more restrained than before.
The two of them went to and from school together. When they got off the car, they met Fu Yanxiu who had just returned from outside in the garage. Fu Yanxiu seemed a little surprised to see that she came back with Fu Xuefan, and was slightly stunned.
The next day, Lin Xicai walked to the school gate on time to meet Fu Xuefan, and was surprised to find that the driver who usually picked them up was not there. A luxurious car was parked quietly by the roadside, and Fu Yanxiu was sitting in the driver's seat.
Their eyes met, and Lin Xicai stopped and stood at the school gate, hesitating whether to get in the car.
She could barely tolerate Fu Xuefan's unwelcome, but if Fu Yanxiu were to appear, she would have to re-evaluate.
Last time in the living room, she had almost offended him completely. He already hated her, and now he probably wanted to strangle her to death. In this situation...
After hesitating, the car honked impatiently.
Lin Xicai looked over and met Fu Yanxiu's calm eyes.
