Lu Mingyu wondered if there was some misunderstanding between them. Why did Xu Rubao seem to avoid him every time she saw him?
Lu Mingyu chased after him on his bicycle. "Ru Bao, do you really hate me? I feel like a fly when I'm right in front of you."
Xu Rubao's lips twitched slightly when she heard Lu Mingyu's words, wondering why Lu Mingyu would have such a thought.
You know, at school, just based on his face, countless girls were infatuated with him.
Xu Rubao hesitated for a moment, "Lu, I don't actually dislike you. It's just that you're quite famous at school. If I stand next to you, we'll probably become the center of gossip among the girls. I just want to study hard at school and don't want to become the enemy of the girls. Do you understand?"
Lu Mingyu was stunned for a moment, showing that this was something he hadn't expected.
It turned out that she didn't dislike him after all. Knowing this made him feel a little better.
“Ru Bao, people can say whatever they want. We’re perfectly aboveboard. Besides, you’re my savior. Don’t worry, if anyone dares to cause you trouble, just tell me.”
Xu Rubao looked at this naive young master and couldn't help but smile. Did he even know that girls are very jealous?
That night she was locked in the school's anatomy lab, and she even suspected that someone had done it on purpose.
However, she didn't want to cause Lu Jingheng any more trouble at the time.
If he found out, she felt he wouldn't let it go easily, even though he was usually quite fierce towards her.
She didn't want to cause any more trouble, nor did she want to add to her grandfather's burden.
"Alright, Lu, we're not on the same path. I'll get in the car first. Goodbye."
Xu Rubao boarded the bus, and Lu Mingyu followed behind on his bicycle, pondering carefully what Xu Rubao had just said.
She wasn't particularly attractive, but for some reason he wanted to be friends with her; at least she was an interesting friend.
When they arrived at the school bus stop, Lu Mingyu watched her get off the bus and quickly chased after her.
"Ru Bao, I've thought about what you just said. I might be causing you trouble at school. I promise you, I won't be so blatant in front of you at school anymore, but after school, outside of school, I hope we can be friends, okay?"
Xu Rubao initially wanted to refuse, but looking into Lu Mingyu's eyes, she realized he was sincere.
She had no friends since she was a child because of a red mark on her face.
No one else would be so persistent in wanting to be friends with her.
She hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded, "Okay..."
"If you need anything in the future, you can contact me. I'll be going now and won't go in with you, so you won't be ostracized."
Lu Mingyu was satisfied that Xu Rubao had agreed to be friends. He whistled and walked happily toward the school gate.
Xu Ziqing happened to see this scene.
Xu Ziqing felt a pang of jealousy. Why was there such a big difference between them?
Lu Mingyu wouldn't even say a word to her; he never replied to any of her messages.
Xu Ziqing walked over and blocked Xu Rubao's path. "Xu Rubao, is it because you like Lu Mingyu that I asked you to help me make a date with him, but you refused?"
"You're overthinking it. Just because you like him doesn't mean the whole world has to like him."
She tried to turn to the side, but Xu Ziqing was like a leech stuck to her.
"I don't care, you have to help me arrange another date, he'll definitely change his opinion of me."
