Chapter 26 Domineering School Prince's Wet Love 26 [Rewrite] "We split...
The feeling of being touched by that pervert in the alley yesterday seemed to still stick to her skin, giving Ye Ling goose bumps from time to time.
But right now, he has more pressing matters to deal with—
Let's break up.
Those five words lay in his input field, weighing a thousand pounds. His finger hovered over the send button, hesitant to press it.
【Host! Send quickly!】
finally.
Ye Ling clicked send, his heart leaping into his throat. He quickly locked his phone and paced anxiously around his small rental apartment.
After sending the breakup message to Jiang Lian, within three seconds, his phone completely turned into a vibrating pump.
Buzz—buzz—buzz—
On the screen, the familiar number showed more than a dozen missed calls, and every vibration made his hands and feet numb.
[Host! Take it! If you're a man, confront him head-on! Show him your hand! Just say it's game over! I'm done serving you!] 778 danced wildly in his head, the electronic music distorted with excitement. [Short pain is better than long pain. Cut the Gordian knot! Block him now. When he calms down, he'll realize you two are two parallel lines, like cat and mouse, like Ultraman and Little Monster. You're not compatible at all! And then...]
[I know! Stop rushing me, stop rushing me, stop rushing me!] Ye Ling rubbed her hair frantically, and her already messy golden hair became a complete bird's nest.
Of course, it’s not that he doesn’t want to answer, but he doesn’t dare to answer.
Yelling directly into the phone, "I'm a player trying to cheat points, I'm going offline now, brother, take care of yourself"? He was afraid that Jiang Lian would crawl over to him right then and there through the network cable, or show up at his doorstep tomorrow and devour him without a trace!
Finally, when the phone vibrated stubbornly again, Ye Ling steeled herself, gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and poked at the screen with trembling fingers.
It’s not the answer button, but the block option!
WeChat, block! Phone number, block! All in one go!
The world suddenly became quiet.
The phone screen went dark and stopped vibrating. Even the noisy sound of traffic outside the window seemed to disappear.
A feeling of weakness and exhaustion washed over him, his legs giving way, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud. His heart was still pounding, but at the same time, he felt a strange sense of relief.
[Done! Host! We succeeded! Although he's only temporarily unreachable, this is already a historic achievement!] 778 cheered. [Once he calms down and realizes that a forced melon is not sweet, and a forcibly caught bird is not fragrant, then...]
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Before the 778 flag was even set, a series of rapid, heavy knocks on the door suddenly rang out! The force was so great that it seemed to smash through the door panel. Ye Ling was so frightened that she jumped up from the ground like a spring.
[Who…] He murmured in fear, the unpleasant memories in the alley suddenly coming back. [Could it be that…]
"Ye Ling! Open the door!" Jiang Lian's suppressed and distorted voice came from outside the door.
It’s not that pervert, it’s Jiang Lian!
Ye Ling's heart had just settled down when she was immediately gripped by deeper panic.
It was Jiang Lian, the one who had just broken up and been blocked, and must be very angry!
[Holy shit! Why is he here?! Shouldn't he be at home, angry or sad? Wait...how did he know my house is here?!]
778's cheers instantly turned into a screaming alarm: [Host! Danger!]
Ye Ling was so frightened that his first reaction was to destroy the evidence. He hurriedly stuffed his phone into the crack of the sofa, as if this could erase his crime of blackmailing someone.
Then he held his breath, pressed his whole body against the door panel, not daring to even breathe, and even wanted to turn off the lights and pretend to be dead.
"Ye Ling, I know you're in there." The voice outside the door grew colder. "I heard someone. I'll count to three. If you don't open the door, I'll come in myself."
"one--"
Ye Ling's mind went blank, wavering wildly between "jumping out the window to escape" and "opening the door to face it."
"two--"
It's over, it's over. He's in human form now. Jumping out the window is a sure way to death! Opening the door might also be a sure way to death...but a little later is better, right?
"three!"
Just before the terrifying aura outside the door was about to erupt completely, Ye pulled the door lock with trembling hands.
The door had just opened a crack when it was completely pushed open by a huge force from the outside!
Jiang Lian's tall figure was blocking the door like a demon, his face so gloomy that water could be squeezed out of it, and the low pressure emanating from his body almost made the narrow corridor enter an ice age.
He had obviously come running, his hair was a little messy, and his breathing was slightly rapid. Only those deep eyes stared at Ye Ling without blinking, a storm of extreme repression swirling in them.
"You...how do you know I live here..." Ye Ling was so scared that her voice was trembling. She subconsciously took a step back and almost tripped over her own slippers.
Jiang Lian subconsciously reached out and pulled him, then stepped into the door and slammed it shut with a bang.
He grabbed Ye Ling's arm and continued to approach, his eyes icy cold.
"This question," he sneered, the anger in his tone almost turning into substance, "shouldn't I be the one asking you this?"
"..." Ye Ling choked and lowered her head guiltily, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"You've been lying to me, saying you live on Jiangbei Road." Jiang Lian said word by word, "Actually, you live across the street from me... in this shabby building."
Ye Ling's scalp went numb. She knew she was in the wrong. Her underwear had been stripped off, and she couldn't even utter a word to defend herself.
He could only shrink his neck like a quail and whispered softly: "You, you come in first..."
We can't let this evil spirit block the door forever, right? Although letting him in seems even more dangerous...
Jiang Lian walked into the house without any hesitation and swept his sharp eyes over the small but tidy rental house.
His arrival was like a wild beast forcibly breaking into a bird's nest, instantly filling up all the space and making even the air thin and tense.
However, strangely, despite being afraid and guilty, when Ye Ling looked at Jiang Lian's strong figure, the shadow that remained in her heart due to the encounter in the alley was actually dispelled a lot.
Regardless of whether Jiang Lian is his boyfriend or not, this person's existence itself carries a powerful aura that makes people feel at ease.
"Why do you want to break up?" Jiang Lian went straight to the point.
"I..." Ye Ling swallowed and evaded the main point, "I was just... scared. Yes, I was scared... I met a pervert on my way home yesterday."
He hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the story and change the subject.
Sure enough, Jiang Lian's attention was immediately attracted.
His brows were furrowed, his eyes sharp and nervous: "Pervert? When? Where? What did he do to you?!"
He took a step forward, grabbed Ye Ling's shoulders with both hands, and asked a series of questions in a rapid tone, "Are you hurt? Did you lose anything?"
Seeing his reaction, the last trace of doubt in Ye Ling's heart was completely dispelled.
Yes, how could that pervert be Jiang Lian? Jiang Lian was really worried about him.
He shook his head and said with lingering fear: "It was in the alley downstairs... He covered my mouth from behind, pinched my waist, and even put his hand into my clothes to touch me..."
At this point, his cheeks flushed, and the following content was a little difficult to say. "But it's strange, he didn't seem to want money... I dropped my wallet on the ground, and he didn't even look at it."
Jiang Lian's breathing seemed to pause for a moment, his eyes becoming darker, and his grip on his shoulders tightened slightly: "Where did he touch you? Did he hurt you?"
"No. I'm not hurt..." Ye Ling subconsciously shook his head to deny it, not wanting to make a big deal out of it.
"I don't believe it." Jiang Lian's tone was firm and unyielding, "Let me check."
"Ah? No need! It's really okay!" Ye Ling panicked. And how can I check this? !
"Ye Ling." Jiang Lian's voice sank and carried a warning.
Ye Ling's scalp was tingling, and she couldn't resist him, so she had to blush and slowly and shamefully lift the hem of her sweatshirt, revealing a small part of her white waist.
There were several clear fingerprints left on the side of the waist - the marks left by the "pervert" who pinched and gripped her hard yesterday.
Jiang Lian's breathing suddenly became heavy, his eyes fixed on that piece of skin, his eyes dark and frightening.
Ye Ling thought he was angry, so she quickly put down her clothes and tried to comfort him: "It's okay, it just looks scary, but it doesn't hurt at all... really!"
Jiang Lian closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the emotions surging in his eyes were forcibly suppressed, but his voice was still a little hoarse: "...Next time you encounter something like this, tell me immediately."
"Oh..." Ye Ling nodded obediently.
The atmosphere was a little stagnant for a moment.
At this moment, Ye Ling's stomach growled very uncomfortably, and the sound was particularly loud in the quiet room.
Ye Ling: “…” Social death will come late.
However, the unhappiness caused by the "breakup" just now seemed to have completely disappeared.
"Are you hungry?" Jiang Lian glanced at him, then suddenly turned and walked towards the kitchen, his movements extremely natural. "I'll make you something to eat."
"Ah? You can cook?" Ye Ling was surprised and followed him subconsciously.
Then he was even more surprised.
Jiang Lian opened the refrigerator very naturally, took out eggs, ham and leftover rice, and then skillfully found the frying pan, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar in the cupboard. His movements were done in one go, as if this was his own home.
Ye Ling looked at his busy back in her small but clean kitchen, and the sense of disharmony in her heart became stronger and stronger.
"Jiang Lian..." He couldn't help but ask, his voice full of doubt, "How did you know my kitchen is here?"
Although the layout of this old house is simple, it will take some time for first-time visitors to find it, right?
Jiang Lian didn't pause in beating the eggs, nor did he turn his head. His tone was as natural as if he was discussing the weather: "How big is your house? You can see the end from the door. Aren't the houses in the old neighborhoods the same in layout?"
"Then..." Ye Ling still felt something was wrong. "How did you know there were eggs and ham in my refrigerator? And rice?"
Jiang Lian poured the egg liquid into the preheated oil pan, making a sizzling sound. He then turned his head and glanced at Ye Ling, his eyes showing a sense of self-assurance, "Is there even a need to ask this?"
"You're my boyfriend, so of course I know your taste." He remained calm and even turned the tables on her. "You like these, so I guess you have them in your refrigerator. What? I guessed wrong?"
Ye Ling: "..." He was completely speechless by these logically rigorous and self-righteous words.
And that "boyfriend" that he keeps calling me...
A huge sense of guilt instantly overwhelmed Ye Ling. Not only had she lied to him about her address, stalked him, and written a perverted diary, but now she was inexplicably trying to break up with him... And what about Jiang Lian? Not only did she not care, she was even concerned about his safety and even cooked for him herself...
I'm such a jerk! Pah! Trash!
"I'm sorry..." Ye Ling lowered her head, her voice as soft as a mosquito's hum, her heart filled with guilt.
Jiang Lian turned off the fire, put the fried rice into a bowl and handed it to him.
The aroma of steaming food filled the small kitchen. It was the taste of a warm home that Ye Ling had never experienced before.
"What are you saying sorry for?" Jiang Lian reached out and ruffled his soft blond hair. His tone seemed to soften a lot, but the content was still tough. "I didn't agree to break up."
Ye Ling: “…”
The two sat at the small dining table and ate simple but warm home-cooked egg fried rice.
Ye Ling, who was extremely hungry, ate voraciously, but his mind was in a state of confusion.
Jiang Lian held the spoon for a long time without moving. Suddenly, he raised his eyes and looked at Ye Ling seriously, saying in a serious tone, "Do you have any suspicions about the pervert who followed you yesterday?"
Ye Ling thought about it and shook his head.
Jiang Lian frowned, as if deep in thought. After a moment, he spoke again, "That incident might not have been an accident. What robber doesn't want money? That guy might have planned it all along, knew your movements, even your address, and knew you... lived alone."
Ye Ling shuddered at what he said, and a strong sense of fear suddenly surged up, and the fried rice in her mouth no longer tasted good.
Jiang Lian was silent for a few seconds, as if thinking about something. Then, he made a decision.
"Then I'll stay at your place tonight."
"Ah?!" Ye Ling almost choked on the rice grains.
Jiang Lian's expression was extremely serious, with just the right amount of worry and concern. "If that pervert could follow you once, he could follow you a second time, and even go so far as to break into your house... It's too dangerous for you to be alone."
He paused, looked into Ye Ling's eyes, and spoke word by word in a high-sounding manner:
"...I'll stay and protect you."
Ye Ling looked at the male protagonist of this small world, his handsome face full of "integrity" and "concern", and recalled the horrific experience last night, as well as the warmth he had shown when he personally cooked for her...
It seems... there is no reason to refuse?
So, he nodded for some unknown reason.
