Chapter 423: Chapter 424 Chu Yuan, your boyfriend is looking for you
Translator: Doggotranslation
“Xiao Chu, Xiao Chu…”
“Huh?” I was a little confused after being gently woken up by Mother Shu. But soon, I realized that I had actually fallen asleep on Shu Tong’s desk while Mrs. Meng was chatting with Shu Tong’s family. I wiped off the saliva from the corner of my mouth and hurriedly said. “Oh, I’m sorry, auntie. I fell asleep…”
“You are tired. Work is important, but rest is also equally important. You are still young, so don’t ruin your health,” Mother Shu said a few caring words with a smile, “It’s almost noon. Let’s go to eat something.”
.
“Almost noon? Okay. Cousin, wake up.” I smiled embarrassedly and woke up Dong Xiaoye who was still sleeping. Then I asked Mother Shu, “Let’s go to Bei Titan food market. The local food there is really famous.”
“Next time,” Mother Shu turned her head and held Shu Tong’s hand. After looking at Grandma Shu, she turned back to me and said, “We are going back early tomorrow morning, but we still haven’t visited your house. This is very rude behavior. So why don’t we have a meal at your house…”
I tried to keep a smile on my face and said calmly, “Auntie, it’s not rude. My parents are not in Bei Tian city, there is only me and my little sister… and my cousin at home… So there is no point in visiting my house…”
I couldn’t tell whether I was trying to fool Shu Tong’s parents or her grandma, but I definitely couldn’t take them home. If I ran into my old man, being found out that I was lying to other people was not the worst thing that would happen.
After being found out by my old man that I was lying, at most, I would just be scolded by him. But what if he found out Min Rou and the Third Lady, and all the troubles I had gotten into because of them, they would definitely be worried. This was something that I didn’t want to see.
“How can there be no point?” Mother Shu showed a stern face and said, “I know that your parents are not in Bei Tian city. It is because of this that I have to go to visit your house. You and your cousin are busy with work, and Yuan Yuan is still young, so you must seldom cook and eat at home. Let auntie cook this meal for you at noon today.”
Just when I just wanted to refuse, I saw Mother Shu sigh and say with gratitude, “Xiao Chu, we have troubled you in the last few days, so please don’t treat us as outsiders and allow me to make a few home-cooked dishes to express our gratitude, okay?”
I really didn’t want to invite them to my house. Even if they wanted to conduct a ‘home visit’, they should’ve told me in advance, right? Now that I didn’t have any preparation, our lie would be easily exposed in front of Shu Tong’s grandma.
But I didn’t know how to dissuade them at this moment. Shu Tong’s gloating eyes told me that this was the biggest reason why she didn’t want me to meet her parents today…
Dong Xiaoye seemed to also feel that this absurd lie would be exposed by the ruthless reality. She looked at me sympathetically, but there was also a trace of gloating in the corner of her mouth…
Since Mother Shu insisted, I could only grit my teeth and forced myself to make a smile, “Okay, in that case, I will trouble auntie to cook for me. Hehe…”
“By the way, bring Yuan Yuan as well, isn’t it almost time the school is over?”
“Bring her? But she still has classes in the afternoon…” That bratty girl was still young and not so mindful. What if she made some mistakes and accidentally exposed our lie?
Mother Shu said, “It’s fine. After lunch, you can let Miss Min drive her back. I don’t think she will miss her class.”
Before I could say anything, Ms. Meng interrupted from the side, “She won’t miss her class. The class will only start at 2:30 in the afternoon. Xiao Shu, Chu Yuan’s last morning class is self-study. You can get her now..” This greedy woman actually began to side with Mother Shu after receiving a present from her.
“Oh.” Shu Tong replied, and walked out the door. She gave me an eye signal as she walked past me.
I immediately said, “Wait, I will go with you.”
As soon as I left the office, I couldn’t help asking, “Why didn’t you tell me your parents are going to my house in advance?”
Shu Tong rolled her eyes and said annoyingly, “I told you not to come, but did you listen? If they didn’t see you, do you think my parents would want to visit your house?”
“You could’ve told me in advance that they have this idea, then I definitely wouldn’t have come here,” I continued with a headache, “What should I do now? Do you really want me to bring them to my house?”
“Aren’t you afraid that my parents will run into your parents?” Shu Tong raised her hand in front of my eyes and shook the key in her hand. “Don’t worry, I’ve already prepared in advance.” She said proudly.
“Last time I told you that one of my colleagues married Liu Xiaosheng’s subordinates, do you still remember it? Her parents are now living together with her, so her old house is empty. It has four bedrooms and two living rooms. Hehe, it’s enough for us to fool them.”
I breathed a sigh of relief. I didn’t expect that this Natural Airhead could be so reliable sometimes.
The office building and the teaching building were opposite each other, and the distance between the two buildings wasn’t that far; we arrived at the teaching building before I even realized it. There was no one in the corridor, but it was not as quiet as I expected. Although it was the key high school in the city, the self-discipline of students in the self-study class was quite disappointing. When Shu Tong saw me frowning, she blushed embarrassedly.
She pushed open the classroom door angrily and said loudly, “What is all this noise! It is still class time, don’t you know!? Where’s the class representative? Where’s the class disciplinary committee member?”
The noise in the room disappeared instantly, but when the students saw that it was Shu Tong who was standing at the door, they started chattering again.
I couldn’t help but sympathize with her. She was born with a natural airhead look. Not a single student was scared of her…
A slightly chubby, quiet girl sitting in the front row replied, “Ms. Shu, the class rep is Dongfang Lianren, and she is also the class disciplinary committee member, but she hasn’t come to school for a long time. Did you forget that?”
“I…” Shu Tong was speechless. The students didn’t know the reason for Dongfang’s absence, but she knew everything clearly in her heart. She couldn’t help but feel guilty and glared at me with anger as if she was taking her anger out on me. Then she said fiercely to the students, “You can’t control yourself when Dongfang Lianren is not around?”
Chu Yuan’s seat was in the fourth row near the window. This asocial bratty girl was holding her chin, looking out the window in a daze, ignoring the noise in the classroom. Only until she heard Shu Tong mention “Dongfang Lianren” did she turn her head instinctively. It just happened that I also poked my head out from behind Shu Tong at this moment.
As soon as this bratty girl saw me, the coldness, calmness, indifference, and arrogance on her face immediately flew away, she actually let out a surprised cry as if she had seen a ghost, which upset me a little.
I didn’t know whether it was because of Shu Tong’s reprimand or Chu Yuan’s soft cry, but the classroom was silent again. Then Shu Tong said, “Chu Yuan, come out, your…”
Before Shu Tong’s voice fell, she heard a girl jokingly say, “Chu Yuan, your boyfriend is looking for you again, hehe.”
Boyfriend? Shu Tong and I were both dazed. Chu Yuan blushed instantly in everyone’s laughter, but she didn’t say a word to deny it. She rushed towards me with annoyance in her eyes. Only when I saw that all the boys were looking at me jealously, did I realize that the “boyfriend” in the girl’s mouth turned out to be me…
However, this kind of misunderstanding was understandable. After all, the last time I came to the school, Chu Yuan and Dongfang deliberately did not explain my relationship with them in order to get rid of the boys around them…
Without knowing the specific details, Shu Tong frowned and scolded, “Qi Xiaohan, don’t talk nonsense. This kind of joke is not funny at all, and all of you, be quiet. The self-study class is not for you to chat with each other. Do you want me to give you more homework?”
The thing that students didn’t like the most was ‘homework’. Students finally settled down again, but the smile on the corners of the girls’ mouths and the jealousy in the eyes of boys were still heavy.
“Are you serious, elder brother? Do you have to come to my school for such a trivial matter?” After Chu Yuan left the classroom, she pushed me to the stairs in one breath, questioning me with an annoyed expression on her face.
For a moment, I didn’t realize what she was talking about, “What trivial matter?”
“The thing about Dongfang using your computer to… Huh?” Chu Yuan finally realized that I wasn’t here for that. She hurriedly stopped and asked, “You didn’t come to the school to find me because of what Dongfang did last night?”
What did Dongfang do last night? I secretly felt a slight pity that I didn’t get the answer from Chu Yuan, but I didn’t show it on my face, “Of course, do you think that I’m as free as you?”
“Then why are you looking for me?” Chu Yuan’s face was still very red, “You’d better give me a reasonable explanation, otherwise I will not let it drop. You know that I will be made fun of by my classmates…”
“Is it my fault?” I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “You can just tell them that I am your elder brother…”
“No!” Chu Yuan refused quickly. Seeing that I was dazed, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes. She hurriedly said, “If they know that you are my elder brother, Lv Siqi and his friend will harass me again. Compared to being surrounded by them every day, I’d rather be laughed at by others.”
