Chapter 200 The Little White Cat Will Meet the Big Tiger
Wu You had never been in a relationship, so of course he could only ask people who had been in relationships about things like that.
Min Le was writing with her head down. He didn't even look up and said coldly, "The fact that she's still willing to argue with him means she still cares."
Wu You suddenly remembered that when Min Le was dating, his girlfriend never argued with him; she simply left him without a second thought.
In Wu You's opinion, this is like the behavior of a scumbag woman who pulls up her pants and then forgets about the person, but Min Le is still deeply in love with her.
Wu You sat in the middle. He glanced at Lu Jin, who was reading a book on his left, and then at Min Le, who was writing on his right. He sighed. As someone who had never been in a relationship, he simply couldn't understand what people in love were thinking.
Mu Zhijing suddenly walked over and asked with a smile, "There's an empty seat here, may I sit down?"
He was referring to the empty seat next to Lu Jin.
Lu Jin didn't respond, assuming that Mu Zhijing wasn't trying to talk to him.
But clearly, the person Mu Zhijing was looking at was Lu Jin.
The others assumed Lu Jin would reply, so no one responded for a moment, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
At this moment, a boy sitting at the very end of the row said, "Sorry, this seat is for my roommate."
Mu Zhijing smiled warmly, "So there are already people here."
Wu You, the dormitory head, also felt embarrassed. "Um, Mu Zhijing, next time you go to class, just let me know in advance, and I promise I'll get you the best seat."
Mu Zhijing never sat with them before, so Wu You never thought of saving a seat for Mu Zhijing. Who would have thought that Mu Zhijing would suddenly want to sit with them today?
Mu Zhijing smiled and generously said, "Okay, thank you then."
Then, he looked at Lu Jin and asked curiously, "I heard that you and Xia Zhen had a fight. What happened? When I saw you two on Friday, you were fine."
Lu Jin turned a page of the book in his hand. "We didn't argue."
"Really?" Mu Zhijing asked doubtfully. "I heard that you made Xia Zhen angry and then you got scolded."
Lu Jin raised his eyes, "A little bit of fun in a relationship, you should understand that as someone with a girlfriend, right?"
"What!" Wu You exclaimed, "Mu Zhijing, you actually have a girlfriend too!"
Everyone in the classroom turned to look. Most of the boys were gossipy, while the girls looked nervous.
Mu Zhijing is considered a god-like figure by many girls! He's the dream lover of so many people, so how did he end up with a girlfriend?
Mu Zhijing smiled and said, "I don't have a girlfriend."
Lu Jin lowered his eyes to read, his tone indifferent, "On Friday, I saw you leaving school with a girl. I thought you were going on a date. Turns out she's not your girlfriend."
Wu You was shocked, "What! You took a girl out to play!"
Mu Zhijing's perfect smile finally changed a little, but it quickly returned to its usual warm and gentle appearance. He explained with a smile, "It's just that someone asked me for help. After all, we went to the same high school, although we were in different classes, so we can be considered old classmates. Besides, she was so enthusiastic in inviting me to dinner, and our families know each other, so I really felt embarrassed to refuse."
After saying all that, what he really meant was that the girl had approached her.
This girl, relying on her status as an old classmate and her relationship with her family elders, deliberately tried to curry favor with him. Mu Zhijing couldn't refuse her, not only because he didn't want to hurt her self-esteem, but also because he didn't want to strain the relationship between the two families.
What girlfriend?
Those are all baseless rumors.
The girls were finally relieved, but the boys were secretly resentful. Why was Mu Zhijing so popular with the girls?
Someone walked over and patted Mu Zhijing on the shoulder, jokingly saying, "I think it's time you found a girlfriend, so everyone won't keep speculating about you."
Mu Zhijing said good-naturedly, "Gu Feng, stop teasing me. Hasn't your family been wanting you to find a girl who is a good match for you? I think you're the one who should be looking for a girlfriend."
Gu Feng shrugged nonchalantly, "Let them worry about it, I don't care. I already have someone I like."
Gu Feng is rich and handsome, and he is never stingy with his money. He is quite popular among girls, but not many girls approach him as much as they approach Mu Zhijing, because Gu Feng is a well-known rich second-generation at school.
As a normal person, many girls from ordinary families wouldn't dream of rising to a high social status, after all, Gu Feng and they are from two different worlds.
Mu Zhijing and Gu Feng chatted and laughed as they found two empty seats in the back row. To be honest, the two handsome men sitting together were quite a sight to behold.
The awkward atmosphere caused by the previous misunderstanding about Mu Zhijing having a girlfriend has also dissipated.
Wu You muttered to himself, "Mu Zhijing really has a lot of friends."
Min Le said, "It's good that you're so innocent."
Wu You was full of questions. "Are you saying I'm stupid?"
Lu Jin flipped through the book, but couldn't absorb a single word of it.
He thought of the dream in which Zhenzhen visited a woman in the hospital, and that woman must have been Song Heng's mother.
However, Song Heng's mother mentioned Mu Zhijing's name.
Without needing to think too much, Lu Jin had already guessed the relationship between Song Sheng, Song Heng, and Mu Zhijing.
Everything in a dream shouldn't be real.
But why does everything in my dream seem to be hinting at this reality?
Lu Jin's phone vibrated; he had received a message.
The person who sent the message had a simple profile picture: a white background with a large "black" character on it.
Mu Zhijing is Song Sheng's illegitimate son. Song Sheng raised him in the Mu family, intending to bring him back as his heir. However, one day Song Sheng suddenly fell down the stairs, and the matter was dropped. As you can see, Song Heng is now the head of the Song family.
The day Miss Xia met you was also Song Heng's birthday party. Originally, the Song family and Xia Zhen had planned a marriage alliance, but Song Heng invited Tang Susu to be his dance partner on his birthday. This was tantamount to slapping Miss Xia in the face, so the marriage alliance naturally fell through.
It's really strange, Song Heng wasn't exactly enthusiastic towards Miss Xia before, but he certainly didn't dislike her either. It seems like from that day on, he developed a huge prejudice against her.
[I initially thought Song Heng utterly despised your girlfriend, but it doesn't seem that way anymore. Kid, considering I watched your girlfriend grow up, I'm giving you a heads-up: you'd better hold on tight and don't let her get away.]
Most importantly, don't tell your girlfriend that I told you these things!
The next second, all of those messages were withdrawn and destroyed one by one.
But half a minute later, another message came in.
[I've refunded your money. Consider this information a free gift, on the condition that you can deal with Song Heng in the future, but don't involve other members of the Song family.]
Ten seconds later, the message was also withdrawn, and no new messages were sent for several minutes.
It seems he really has finished speaking.
Wu You looked at Lu Jin, who suddenly stood up, and asked, "Class is about to start, where are you going?"
"Restroom." Lu Jin walked out of the classroom and stopped in the deserted stairwell.
He leaned against the wall, his eyes lowered, and dialed a number. The call was answered quickly, and he smiled slightly, "Zhenzhen."
She called his name sweetly, "Lu Jin!"
Lu Jin heard the sound of her chewing cookies and said with a hint of helplessness, "You're sneaking snacks again."
"I have class later, I'm just having a little something to eat!"
He chuckled.
She asked curiously, "Is there something you need from me?"
"It's nothing, I just missed you."
Xia Zhen smiled smugly, "I knew you loved me to death! You missed me after just one hour apart!"
"Yes, I really love you to death."
Xia Zhen was taken aback. "Lu Jin, what's wrong? Did something upset you?"
He looked up and could see the light streaming in from the window, but he could only stand in this dark corner to avoid being scorched by the sun.
Lu Jin whispered, "Zhenzhen, there's a big gray wolf and a little white cat in the forest..."
Xia Zhen smiled. "You want to tell me a story?"
He said, "Want to hear it?"
"I want to hear it! Please continue."
Lu Jin raised an eyebrow and continued, "The big bad wolf played with the little white cat every day, but one day he was walking on the road when he suddenly saw the little white cat playing with the weasel he hated the most, so he stopped playing with the little white cat and went to find the little white rabbit instead."
He added, "But the little white cat stayed with the weasel because the big bad wolf's mother was sick, and only the weasel had the medicine. The little white cat took the medicine back to the big bad wolf, but the big bad wolf chased her away."
Xia Zhen spoke up at the right moment, "The little white kitten is so pitiful."
Lu Jin's eyes dimmed slightly. "One day, the big bad wolf finally learned the truth. It came back to find the little white cat. Zhenzhen, do you think the little white cat will forgive it?"
"Won't."
Why not?
"Because by then, the little white kitten must have already made some much more powerful friends, like... a big tiger!" Xia Zhen exclaimed dramatically into the phone, "Awooo—"
Lu Jin could picture the girl baring her teeth and claws, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Xia Zhen said with a grin, "As the saying goes, two tigers cannot share one mountain. The big tiger will never agree to let the big bad wolf come and steal the little white cat from him!"
"Yes, you're right." Lu Jin closed his eyes briefly, and when he opened them again, the light streaming in from the window filled his eyes.
The hand, with its overly pale skin, slowly moved forward, as if grasping a ray of morning light.
Perhaps it was because the girl, who loved beauty, had given up on doing her own makeup and insisted on carefully applying the sunscreen to him before leaving the house that it worked, and he didn't even feel any pain.
This is probably what they call a psychological effect.
But he enjoyed it immensely.
He said, "Zhenzhen."
She replied, "What's wrong?"
In the interplay of light and shadow, the white-haired boy's cool profile seemed to soften slightly. He lowered his eyes and said with a smile, "I want you again."
She remained silent for a long time, then suddenly said seriously, "Lu Jin! Where is your self-control! What happened to your saying that excessive indulgence is harmful to health! Are you a Minion? Your mind is full of such things!"
Lu Jin listened to her lecture with amusement, not in a hurry to speak, knowing she definitely had more to say.
Sure enough, the girl said in a low voice, barely containing her excitement, "I don't have class tomorrow afternoon, what about you!"
He said, "I have classes."
She was disappointed. "Oh..."
"However, only the first period in the afternoon."
She cried out, "Lu Jin, I love you, mwah!"
Lu Jin smiled, and even his eyes held a hint of tenderness.
Wu You stood in the corridor, looking completely bewildered.
He just wanted to go to the restroom to call Lu Jin back to class, but he never expected to see Lu Jin smile so happily and gently.
Is this person really Lu Jin?!
