Chapter 14
However, Lu Yang later let it slip. Xu Wang didn't come to school because he liked it, but because of Jiang Yi.
However, Jiang Yi did not believe him when she heard his words. After all, it was a little unbelievable that Xu Wang came to the school for her sake.
After Lu Yang let slip the secret, he told Xu Wang about it, then scratched his head and said to Xu Wang, "Brother Xu, I think I let it slip. I told Sister Yi that you came to school because of her."
Xu Wang didn't think of blaming him at this moment. Instead, she asked with some tension and urgency, "What was her reaction?"
For some reason, he felt a sense of anticipation.
Lu Yang thought for a moment, recalling Jiang Yi's reaction, and then said, "Sister Yi seems to have reacted quite calmly, as if she doesn't quite believe that you came to school for her sake."
Upon hearing his words, Xu Wang felt a pang of disappointment for no apparent reason. His expression turned cold, and he snorted and said with a sneer, "I didn't come to school for her."
Luo Yang immediately echoed him, saying, "Yes, yes, you didn't come to school for Sister Yi. You came to school because you want to study hard."
“Yes, I came to school because I wanted to learn,” Xu Wang muttered to himself.
It's as if saying this will convince myself.
But there's always a bit of unhappiness and unspeakable melancholy in my heart, and a sense of frustration at not being understood.
Upon seeing Xu Wang's reaction, Lu Yang immediately knew what he was thinking and fawned over him, saying, "Yes, yes, Brother Xu, you didn't come to school for Sister Yi. You came for me. You came to school because you like it."
Xu Wang glanced at him sideways, then looked away.
The ginkgo trees on campus were swaying gently in the wind. Outside the corridor, a girl in a school uniform was filling a water bottle. The sunlight was just right, and her face looked beautiful and clean.
It was a very nice afternoon.
Lu Yang originally thought that Xu Wang would stop coming to school because of this, but after a while, he still came to school rain or shine.
Over the weekend, the doctor came to examine the male protagonist's leg. Xu Wang tried to walk while holding onto the railing. Although his leg trembled slightly and seemed unsteady, he was able to walk a short distance. Seeing that Xu Wang's leg had recovered so well and so quickly, even Dr. Zhang Jingyi was very surprised and said with a smile, "I originally thought it would take some time, but I didn't expect it to recover so quickly. That's really good."
Xu Wang listened to the doctor's words and silently lowered his eyes.
Although the doctor said his leg had recovered quite well, he was not satisfied with the progress at all. He wished he could walk faster so that he wouldn't have to be alone when needed. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but recall the image of the female lead returning from the rain, soaking wet. He thought that if he could walk faster, perhaps she wouldn't have to be alone in the future.
The boy's thoughts were tinged with a mixture of secrets and joy. Although he was unwilling to admit it, he had to admit that he had developed feelings for Jiang Yi differently. These feelings made him want to become a better person and to be able to protect her at certain times.
When the good news of Xu Wang's greatly improved leg reached Jiang Yi's ears, she was sitting on the grass downstairs chatting with Anan. Anan, with a blade of grass in his mouth, said in a good mood, "Young Master can stand up now, it feels so good."
Jiang Yi glanced at Anan beside her and couldn't help but ask, "He's getting better, what about you?"
When Anan heard her words, he paused for a moment, then suddenly smiled and asked, "Why did you suddenly bring me up?"
His smile was somewhat pale and stiff.
Jiang Yi looked at him with a wistful expression and said, "I'm just a little curious why you're not going to school anymore. Actually, for a while, I saw you reading a book by yourself. It seems that you don't dislike reading."
Anan's expression softened slightly. He stood up, turned his back to her, and said, "No, I just don't like reading."
Then, she turned around, her back to Jiang Yi, and left.
Jiang Yi looked at his somewhat arrogant back and sighed helplessly.
She felt it was a pity that Anan wasn't studying at his age, but unfortunately he didn't intend to listen to her.
Just then, Xu Wang called to her from upstairs: "Jiang Yi, come up."
Jiang Yi didn't know why Xu Wang was calling her. Although she was a little confused, she still went upstairs. Everyone else had already left the room, leaving only Xu Wang. When she saw him, Jiang Yi looked a little strange and asked, "Young Master, why did you call me?"
Why are you calling her?
Xu Wang felt a little guilty, his eyes darting around, and said, "It's nothing..."
I just saw her down there and wanted to call out to her; I had no other purpose.
He would never admit that seeing her sitting comfortably with Anan made him feel a strange, indescribable sour feeling.
"I just wanted to tell you that my leg is much better now."
Jiang Yi didn't know why he was telling her this. Although she looked a little confused, she still smiled and said, "Congratulations."
That's so perfunctory.
Xu Wang was a little depressed, but... thinking that she had helped him find his doctor, he felt a little better and said, "It's all because of your help, thank you."
Jiang Yi touched her nose.
Actually, she just benefited from knowing the plot in advance.
