Chapter 1221 Lend Me Your Merit (4)
"Thank you for your hard work, Weirong." Cui Hongyu wiped Li Weirong's sweat with a tissue with a moved look on his face.
"For you, it's not hard." Li Weirong's face was pale, and she showed him a sincere smile, but the smile was fleeting. "I have too little merit, almost not enough to draw a talisman for you... How are you doing with Li Shichu?"
She had to mention her half-sister who made her jealous. She was jealous of Li Shichu's unique luck and great merits. She often wondered why it was Li Shichu who had all these merits and luck instead of herself? Wouldn't it be a waste for an ordinary person to have all these?
So with a dark mind, she proposed to Cui Hongyu a way to win Li Shichu's affection and make her willingly offer her merits and fortune for him. This would not only make her disliked sister end up tragically, but also allow her lover to completely solve his worries, killing two birds with one stone.
When Cui Hongyu heard her mention Li Shichu, his expression froze, but he finally confessed: "There is no progress. She doesn't seem to have much impression of me."
He still had some reservations. In fact, it was not that Li Shichu had no impression of him, but that he did not have a good impression of him.
"How is that possible?" Li Weirong didn't believe it. "You are so outstanding and a celebrity in the school. How could she not be impressed by you?" Li Weirong felt that the person she liked was the best, and she didn't believe that Li Shichu would look down on Cui Hongyu.
"People like her are very arrogant. Besides, she is good-looking and her family is rich. Many boys like her, so naturally they won't focus on me." Cui Hongyu refused to admit that she had no charm in front of Li Shichu.
"Hongyu, I know it's unfair to let you pursue her, but we have no other choice now... Only she has such great merits and can completely solve your problems. We can't wait too long now. If you can't obtain the merits and luck she voluntarily gives you before this amulet loses its effect, then you will face the crisis of death at all times... I don't want to lose you, we still have such a long future... So, even if it is for our future, we must overcome any difficulties, okay..." Li Weirong softly persuaded Cui Hongyu.
If people who didn't know that she was conspiring with Cui Hongyu to use Li Shichu heard her words, they would think she was such an upright, strong, brave and patient person.
Cui Hongyu hugged her: "I know, I will try my best to get close to Li Shichu, but don't worry, nothing will really happen between us. I will always belong to you." He said it so sincerely that Li Weirong was immediately moved.
Li Weirong used the amulet made from her own merits to temporarily cover up Cui Hongyu's evil spirit, allowing him to live a normal life.
Because the matter was urgent, he left the hospital and returned to school without caring about his injuries. So during his daily classes, Li Shichu suddenly found that he often ran into Cui Hongyu, and he would be looked at by him with an expression as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
"Shichu, do you know Senior Cui?" roommate Huang Ying asked Li Shichu curiously, gossiping with shining eyes.
Li Shichu shook his head without hesitation: "I don't know him."
"Then why does he look at you like this? As if you've let him down..." Huang Ying asked doubtfully, "Are you sure nothing happened between you and Senior Cui?"
"I'm very sure that he and I have no connection at all. He is about to graduate, and we are not in the same major. How could we know each other?" Li Shichu said expressionlessly. Ever since Cui Hongyu appeared in front of him frequently, she knew that this man was still not giving up on her.
As they were talking, Cui Hongyu came up, looked at Li Shichu gently, and said, "Xiaomei Li, I have something to tell you, are you free?"
"I don't seem to know you. What can you tell me? If you really have something to say, just say it here." Li Shichu wanted to know what means he would use to get close to him this time.
Cui Hongyu looked at Huang Ying awkwardly and said, "These are some things that are not convenient to talk about in front of outsiders..."
Huang Ying wanted to find an excuse to leave when she heard this, but Li Shichu grabbed her arm. Li Shichu said confidently, "Huang Ying is my best friend. I don't have anything to keep secret from her. She is not an outsider. What do you want to tell me? Telling it to me is the same as telling it to her."
Cui Hongyu opened his mouth. He was aloof and proud. For the sake of his own life, he had finally prepared himself mentally to confess his love to Li Shichu. But now that there were other people present, his self-esteem would not allow others to see his humble side: yes, he felt that his confession to Li Shichu was humble and condescending. It was conceivable that he actually looked down on Li Shichu, yet he shamelessly took advantage of him.
Li Shichu saw that he was just standing there in a daze without saying anything, and immediately became impatient. He walked around him and left with Huang Ying. Cui Hongyu hurriedly called her: "Xiaomei Li! I really have something important to tell you. Please give me a chance to say it, okay?"
When he said this, his face turned red. When had he ever been so humble to others? It was always others who tried to please him. Even in front of Li Weirong, he was the one who was treated with caution.
However, Li Shichu did not take his "grievance" to heart. Li Shichu was hard-hearted and said, "If you don't say it now, don't say it forever."
Cui Hongyu looked at his broken arm which was still aching and the bad luck he had had in the past two days. He didn't know when he would suffer an accident. He gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and shouted, "Xiaomei Li, I like you. Can you be my girlfriend?"
He was a school hunk who was known by many people. It was now the end of get out of class and many people passed by. They recognized him and heard what he said. They immediately stopped and looked at him with shining eyes, thinking that they were about to witness School hunk Cui getting out of being single.
There were even some classmates who were eager to watch the fun and cheer him on: "Promise him! Cui has always been a clean student. Junior sister, just promise him!"
Unfortunately, Li Shichu was not affected by outsiders at all. She just looked at Cui Hongyu in surprise and said, "Why would Senior Cui like me? Aren't you very close to my half-sister? When I went home that day, I heard my aunt say that Li Weirong personally made chicken soup for you to nourish your body. Are you trying to have two relationships at once?!"
When Cui Hongyu heard that Li Shichu actually knew that he and Li Weirong knew each other, his head suddenly buzzed and his mind became confused. They had been very careful not to let Li Shichu know that they knew each other, otherwise she would probably be wary of him, which would be disadvantageous for him to approach her. However, he didn't expect that he had only been in the hospital for two days and she happened to know that he knew Weirong...
