Chapter 336 Brother, I need your help! [11]
Song Lin felt like he was probably sick!
Otherwise, why would they have chosen to come to Galaxy Bay and spend more than an hour in the underground parking lot?
Seeing couples holding hands on their way home now feels like seeing my cheating wife.
Song Lin cursed himself inwardly. How could he have acted as someone's boyfriend for just a few days and then actually started to see himself as her boyfriend?
Song Lin's face was dark, and it was unclear whether he was angry at others or at himself.
He started the car and drove off with a tap on the gas.
The sports car made a lot of noise, especially noticeable in the underground parking lot, which startled Ah Chu.
What Song Lin saw through the rearview mirror was exactly the scene where A Chu was so frightened that she leaned into Ye Wenyuan's arms.
His eyes grew even darker, and his lips pressed into a straight line.
It's such an eyesore!
His brother is such an eyesore!
Unfortunately, he had no right to tell people to get lost.
Nestled in Ye Wenyuan's arms, Achu heard the system notification: [Ding! Target's favorability +5, current favorability 85!]
From an angle where Ye Wenyuan couldn't see, A Chu's lips curled up slightly.
In the following days, Ye Wenyuan tried his best to spend time with Achu.
The two seemed to have returned to how they were before.
Previously, Su Xingyue didn't see Ye Wenyuan every day, but the two did chat via messages every day.
I just didn't let Ah Chu know.
Occasionally, A-Chu would mention some things that Ye Wenyuan had 'accompanied' her to do. Ye Wenyuan would agree on the surface, but he felt somewhat uncomfortable inside.
He only asked Song Lin to impersonate him, he never expected him to do so much with A Chu!
Fortunately, things are back to normal now, so let's not bother his brother anymore.
Ye Wenyuan thought to himself.
The very next day, he personally called Song Lin for help.
There were reports a couple of days ago that Typhoon Mangkhut (the tenth typhoon of the year) was about to make landfall.
Typhoon season means wind, thunder, and rain.
Such weather was a source of childhood trauma for Su Xingyao.
Su Xingyao's father is unknown; she has lived with her birth mother since birth.
When Su Xingyao was five years old, she witnessed her birth mother commit suicide on a stormy night.
From then on, she was terrified of thunderstorms.
As the male protagonist of the novel and Su Xingyao's boyfriend, Ye Wenyuan naturally still likes and cares about her.
When he suddenly heard thunder that night, his first thought was of Su Xingyao.
Ignoring the fact that it had started raining outside, Ye Wenyuan immediately drove out to find A Chu.
He had only been out for five minutes when Su Xingyue called him.
Ye Wenyuan answered: "Hello, Yueyue?"
From the other end came Su Xingyue's tearful voice: "A Yuan, help me!"
Ye Wenyuan's expression immediately changed, and he asked anxiously, "What's wrong, Yueyue? What happened? Where are you?"
Su Xingyue: "I'm at home... all alone. I slipped and fell while I was taking a shower, and now I can't get up..."
Without hesitation, Ye Wenyuan said, "Wait for me, I'm coming right now! Don't worry, I'll be there soon!"
After hanging up the phone, Ye Wenyuan immediately changed his destination.
He even tried to comfort himself, thinking that now that the thunder had stopped, maybe Chu wasn't so scared.
The next moment, Ye Wenyuan saw a flash of lightning in front of him, followed by a thunderous explosion.
A voice message from Achu popped up on the vehicle's central control screen, which was connected to the phone via Bluetooth.
Ye Wenyuan reached out and tapped the button.
The girl's voice, trembling with fear and tears, rang out: "Ah Yuan, it's thundering, I'm so scared, will you come and stay with me?"
Ye Wenyuan frowned deeply, caught in a dilemma.
Finally, he dialed Song Lin's number.
As soon as the call connected, Ye Wenyuan shouted, "Brother, I need your help! Xingyao is afraid of thunder, go and keep her company!"
Song Lin, who had finally managed to stop thinking about A Chu, laughed in anger upon hearing this:
"You're her boyfriend, and you want me to go be with her? What are you going there for?"
Ye Wenyuan explained, "Yueyue asked me to come over..."
It's Su Xingyue again!
Song Lin interrupted him impatiently: "I'm telling you, Ye Wenyuan, if you really can't handle it, just break up with Su Xingyao and don't waste her time."
Ye Wenyuan: "It's not that I don't want to break up, it's that Xingyao loves me too much and can't live without me!"
"Besides, she is blind because of me, and I have to take responsibility for her."
Song Lin: "Your sense of responsibility means knowing your girlfriend is afraid of thunder, yet you send your brother to keep her company while you go to be with another woman?"
Ye Wenyuan was speechless: "...Anyway! Xingyao is in your hands now!"
After saying that, fearing rejection, Ye Wenyuan hung up the phone immediately.
Song Lin's face darkened, and he let out a sneer.
He hung up the phone; he didn't want to go!
A light shone through the floor-to-ceiling window, where the curtains were not drawn, followed by a deafening rumble of thunder.
Involuntarily, the image of Ah Chu curled up in fear flashed into my mind.
Less than a minute after hanging up the phone, Song Lin muttered something under his breath, stood up, grabbed his car keys, and went out the door.
The rain was heavy, and even with the wipers on full blast, it was still difficult to see the road ahead.
Fortunately, there weren't many cars on the road, and because he was worried about Su Xingyue, Ye Wenyuan didn't slow down.
When he finally arrived at the Su family home, he found that there were servants on duty.
Ye Wenyuan frowned, his tone reproachful: "What's wrong with you all? Yueyue fell down in the bathroom and you didn't even care?!"
The young maid, who had been scolded, was stunned and said somewhat aggrievedly, "Miss and her friends are in the recreation room; they didn't go to take a bath!"
Ye Wenyuan was stunned: "What?!"
When he went to the recreation room, he found out that Su Xingyue was playing Truth or Dare with some friends.
Su Xingyue chose a dare: to call the first contact in her phone and, no matter what she said, ask him to come to her within half an hour.
Ye Wenyuan, however, only spent twenty minutes because he was worried about Su Xingyue.
Su Xingyue happily hugged Ye Wenyuan: "Ayuan, thank you for helping me succeed in the challenge!"
Ye Wenyuan pulled her away: "Since it's just a dare, I'm leaving."
He figured Song Lin probably hadn't arrived at Galaxy Bay yet, so he'd call him later and tell him he didn't need to go.
It's better for him to keep his girlfriend company himself!
Su Xingyue looked at Ye Wenyuan's expressionless face, as if she had done something wrong, and asked, "A-Yuan, are you angry with me?"
"I'm sorry, I was just joking..."
Ye Wenyuan: "I'm not angry, I should go."
Su Xingyue stopped him, saying, "It's raining so hard, it's too dangerous to drive. You shouldn't go."
Several mutual friends nearby also tried to persuade Ye Wenyuan: "Yeah, Brother Yuan, we didn't leave because of the heavy rain, why don't you stay and have some fun with us!"
"Let's play a ghost story relay game later, the weather is perfect for it!"
Before Ye Wenyuan could refuse, a young man leaned over and forced him to drink a sip of wine.
Then, laughing, he said, "Brother Yuan, you've been drinking, so you can't drive after drinking!"
Ye Wenyuan: "..."
