Chapter 0 Extra 9 Yu Wei
"Ask me for help?" Yu Wei was a little surprised.
"Yes." An Shuyan said, taking out a gift bag from his backpack. The bag must have been in the schoolbag for a while, and there were some creases on it, making it look a little messy.
She recognized the brand on the packaging bag, Hongji Pastry, a very famous dessert shop in H City that specializes in old-fashioned pastries.
Hongji’s pastries are delicious. Yu Wei tried them once. Her aunt bought them for her, but her parents said they were too high in calories and would make her fat, so they only allowed her to have one piece. She never ate them again.
"This was given to me by someone. I don't like sweet things, and it would be a waste if I threw it away. Can you help me eat it?"
In the few times that Yu Wei had met An Shuyan, she rarely heard him say such a long sentence, especially one that seemed to be asking for help.
But with his expressionless face, flat tone, and usual arrogant demeanor, Yu Wei didn't feel at all that he was seeking help.
It was insulting her.
Did he see through her hypocritical mask? Did he know that she actually struggled with her appetite every day? Did he know that her mouth was actually drooling furiously when she refused food?
Yu Wei felt embarrassed and ashamed as if she had been seen through, and she held Yu Huan's hand a little tighter.
Reason made him maintain a smile on his face, and she did not take the bag. "I'm sorry, I may not be able to help you with this. I don't like sweets. If you don't want to eat it, you can give it to someone else."
After she finished saying this, An Shuyan looked at her again, and that look seemed to be saying.
Why are you pretending? You obviously want to eat it.
Yu Wei almost failed.
Fortunately, An Shuyan quickly retracted his gaze and turned to look at Yu Huan, "Then give it to your sister. I can't give it to anyone else."
Yu Huan didn't dare to answer. She felt that the atmosphere between her sister and this brother was not right, so she looked up at Yu Wei.
Yu Wei calmed down at this time, "Why can't it be given to others?"
An Shuyan raised his eyes and shifted his gaze from Yu Huan to Yu Wei again, "Because if you give it to others, people will misunderstand you."
After hearing this, Yu Wei just wanted to curse. What a bullshit excuse.
An Shuyan, perhaps seeing through her doubts, added, "Apart from studying and things at the student union, I don't interact much with girls. If I rashly gave this to someone, rumors would definitely start, which wouldn't be good for anyone."
Yu Wei still didn't answer, "Then send a boy."
An Shuyan didn't retract it, and the wrist that belonged to the young man was still stretched out in front of her. "I asked, and they don't like sweet food either."
If An Shuyan's expression hadn't been so normal, Yu Wei would have thought he was being disingenuous and looking for an excuse to give her a gift.
After all, she has encountered too many such things.
But An Shuyan's face did not show their shyness or blushing, and his eyes were calm and peaceful, as if he was not giving Yu Huan dessert, but handing her a test paper.
"If you give it to me, aren't you afraid that others will spread rumors about me?"
An Shuyan looked at her. His pupils were very dark. When he looked at people seriously, there was a strange and strong swallowing feeling in his eyes, which made Yu Wei's heart tremble involuntarily.
"You are very outstanding. I will give you a gift as a matter of course, and it will not become a rumor attacking you."
He said it frankly, but the effect coming out of his mouth was too strong.
Yu Wei certainly knew that she was very outstanding. She had always been ranked first in the grade. She was beautiful and very talented in art. She had won many awards in piano competitions.
It can be said that she is the "other people's child" that parents talk about.
She had heard countless compliments and had become numb to them. Now she could remain calm when receiving compliments from anyone.
But when An Shuyan said, "She is very good," her heart actually skipped a beat.
This was recognition from a strong person, recognition from a competitor, and such praise made her a little excited.
As a result, An Shuyan's face became more pleasing to the eye.
The persistence of the two attracted the attention of the surrounding classmates. Yu Wei could no longer find a reason to refuse him, and his previous words really benefited her.
Taking the bag, she smiled at An Shuyan and said, "Thank you, President. I'll be honored to accept it."
"Yeah." An Shuyan's face was still calm. He withdrew his hand and turned to face the road.
Yu Wei was a little curious about what kind of pastries were in the bag, but she couldn't show it now, so she lowered her head and stuffed the bag into Yu Huan's hand.
"Yes, I'll give it to you."
She didn't look at An Shuyan, and thus missed the opportunity to see into the boy's mind, the red skin under his collar and at the ends of his hair.
After that day, Yu Wei and An Shuyan were still the same as before. They would nod to each other when they met, but they would not chat. The pastry did not bring any change to their relationship.
Just as he said, there was no scandal between the two of them.
The next day, someone did ask out of curiosity, and Yu Wei told the truth, and others believed her without a doubt.
Because she is Yu Wei, the goddess of the public and the teacher's favorite. Even if the student union president likes her, it doesn't matter. It's not excessive for anyone to like her.
What bothered Yu Wei was another thing: Yi Chuanheng was still pestering her.
Every time she came home from school, he would come over, always with all kinds of food in his hands.
To be honest, Yu Wei almost accepted it several times. The aroma of the food was so fragrant that it made her drool every time.
She didn't even dare to speak, for fear that her saliva would flow out as soon as she opened her mouth.
She didn't dare swallow it, for fear that others would see through her greed. She could only walk around Yi Chuanheng with an expressionless face and go straight to the bus stop.
That night, Yi Chuanheng came again without a hitch, and this time he was holding a box of sour things in his hand.
Yu Wei has eaten this because it is not high in calories, but she actually doesn’t like it very much. She prefers to eat high-calorie junk food.
But the taste was too strong. The lemon scent whetted her appetite and her mouth began to drool like crazy.
She hadn't eaten enough for dinner, and after a whole evening study session, she was very hungry.
Now the smell was almost making her stomach turn sour.
She wanted to swallow her saliva so badly that she could hardly hold it back.
"Try this. It's low in calories and won't make you fat. Besides, you're not fat." Yi Chuanheng kept moving the box towards her.
Yu Wei's eyes fell on it and her saliva began to secrete wildly again.
Yes, this is not high in calories and you won’t gain weight by eating one bite.
Just as her willpower collapsed and she reached out her hand, for some reason, she suddenly withdrew her hand.
She had a premonition that this reaching out might ruin her life.
She didn't have time to trace the source of the premonition, and her mouth was still drooling crazily. In order to avoid being seen, she turned her head away and swallowed her saliva quietly.
Her mouth finally felt comfortable, but when she looked up, she saw An Shuyan standing not far away looking at her.
He saw her swallow.
As soon as this thought came to her mind, Yu Wei's face turned red.
