Chapter 10 The Noble Academy Substitute (10) And I'm especially...
Chapter Ten
Xia Zhi looked at Xu Yu, then suddenly asked with a hint of suspicion, "Are you really drunk?"
Xu Yu's eyelashes trembled slightly, but he kept his head down, feigning weakness. Although he didn't answer, he clearly appeared to be drunk.
Xie Ningyu leaned against the wall, looking at Xu Yu's appearance, and twitched the corner of his mouth. He thought to himself that he had never seen Xu Yu act before, let alone act so realistically.
Xia Zhi was already suspicious, but she remained calm on the surface. "Then I'll feed you."
Xu Yu gently raised his eyes and met Xia Zhi's suspicious gaze.
He gently took Xia Zhi's bowl and, playing along, said, "I'm more sober now, I can drink it myself."
Xia Zhi watched as he tilted his head back and finished the whole drink before saying, "Don't be so childish in the future. I won't show up again next time."
Xu Yu gripped the bowl tightly, the words of the men from earlier flashing through his mind. He liked Xia Zhi so much that he was willing to use any other means.
Xu Yu nodded calmly, then said softly, "I'm sorry."
Xia Zhi was taken aback by Xu Yu's words. She paused for a moment, then looked away. "Think it through yourself. I'm leaving now."
Xie Ningyu glanced at Xu Yu indifferently, then looked at Xia Zhi, "I'll take you back."
Just as Xia Zhi was about to agree, they suddenly heard Xu Yu speak at the same time, "Ning Yu, don't you have something to take care of? You should go first."
Xie Ningyu looked at Xu Yu, then chuckled softly, "Alright, alright, I do have something to take care of."
Xie Ningyu fiddled with the car keys in one hand, then looked at Xia Zhi and said, "I'll be going now. You can take a taxi later."
Natsumi: ...
Just as she was about to speak, Xie Ningyu innocently spoke up again, "I do have urgent business to attend to."
Xie Ningyu was about to leave when he took a few steps, then turned his head slightly as if he had thought of something. "Xu Yu, you owe me a favor today."
Xu Yu narrowed his eyes slightly. He had clearly seen Xie Ningyu and Xia Zhi's interaction just now, and the two of them were so ambiguous.
Isn't it too much for Xia Zhi to provoke those three?
Xu Yu hummed in agreement, "I understand."
Xie Ningyu left, and before Xia Zhi could react, she heard a car horn, signaling him to leave first.
Xia Zhi was a little helpless. She was about to look down and call a taxi when she suddenly heard Xu Yu speak up, "Zhizhi, are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"
Xia Zhi glanced at Xu Yu, who looked perfectly sober, as if he hadn't been the one who was drunk just moments before.
Xia Zhi's guard went up, so she subconsciously pointed to the door, "I'm not hungry, I'm leaving now..."
Xu Yu stared intently at Xia Zhi with his deep eyes, then suddenly licked his lips and chuckled softly, "Are you afraid of me?"
Being alone with a man and a woman, Xia Zhi was indeed a little afraid.
She seems to rarely spend time alone with Xu Yu; they usually spend time together as a group of four.
Xu Yu gradually approached Xia Zhi, and then walked to her side, his eyes filled with ambiguity and a hint of greed.
Xia Zhi noticed this and subconsciously took a step back.
Xu Yu noticed that Xia Zhi was looking at him with a wary gaze, which made him feel a pang of pain, accompanied by a sense of self-abandonment.
Since he can't win Xia Zhi's favor no matter what he does, he might as well...
Xu Yu cornered Xia Zhi again, and Xia Zhi panicked, accidentally breaking a vase next to her.
She looked at the shards scattered on the ground and felt a pang of regret.
Xu Yu, without changing his expression, said, "This vase is worth one million."
Xia Zhi's face turned deathly pale. She looked at Xu Yu and said, word by word, "You did this on purpose!"
Xu Yu cornered her, which is why she accidentally smashed it!
Xia Zhi stared at Xu Yu as if she were seeing him for the first time. She had known before that the three of them were the pride of heaven, but she never expected that they would resort to such despicable means.
Xu Yu simply admitted it directly, "Yes, I did it on purpose."
Xia Zhi discreetly observed the area behind the door. She had sensed danger after Xie Ningyu left. The only way out was to leave, but Xu Yu was blocking her way; she couldn't reach the door.
Xu Yu looked at her amusedly, "Trying to run away?"
Without saying a word, Xu Yu slowly walked over and closed the door, shutting it tightly.
Xia Zhi closed her eyes in despair, trying to distract him, "Why are you doing this? Aren't we friends?"
Xu Yu sneered, "Who the hell wants to be friends with you?"
Xia Zhi then realized that Xu Yu's love for her had become obsessive. This was completely different from the original plot, and Xia Zhi subconsciously asked the system, Xiao Qi.
【Zhizhi! I don't know either!】
Xia Zhi sighed silently in her heart, then asked, "Are you drunk or not today?"
Xu Yu said, "I'm drunk, but not really drunk."
Xia Zhi realized what was happening and said, "You were pretending for a while."
Xu Yu looked at her with the same pitying gaze, "Yes, have you forgotten? I often have to go to dinner parties, so it's hard for me to really get drunk and black out."
Xia Zhi lowered her head, preparing to take out her phone to ask someone for help.
Before she could even make the call, Xu Yu walked up to her and snatched her phone.
Xia Zhi was startled, while Xu Yu pursed his lips and began scrolling through the chat history. When he saw the nickname Xia Zhi had given them, he laughed in exasperation, "We've been 'friends' for so many years, and this is the nickname you gave me?"
Xia Zhi felt a little guilty upon hearing this. Her nicknames for the three of them were very simple: No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3.
Because in Xia Zhi's eyes, they were just three missions.
After all, he didn't belong to this world, so Xia Zhi thought it was perfectly normal. However, she never imagined that Xu Yu would be so bold as to snatch her phone.
She suddenly recalled that when she first met Xu Yu, he was very gentlemanly and restrained. At that time, everything was just right, and since she was convinced that she was her ideal woman, there was always a sense of distance between them.
What is changing?
Xia Zhi looked at Xu Yu thoughtfully, then realized that it was when she had been pushing Xu Yu to Lin Yue!
Xia Zhi sighed silently to herself, "Xiao Qi, what do you think is going on? It's completely different from the original plot!"
【Zhizhi! I don't know either!】
"What do we do now? The plot is all messed up."
【Zhizhi, just let things take their course! The storyline of this world must be complete, regardless of whether everything unfolds according to the original plot!】
Xia Zhi naturally understood this principle, and she never gave up halfway through a mission.
So she softened her voice, "Xu Yu, calm down first..."
Xu Yu stared at Xia Zhi, his eyes deep and intense. After a long while, he tilted his head and smiled, "I'm very calm right now, and I really want to kiss you. What should I do? Aren't you very good at interpersonal communication? Now, teach me what to do."
