Back then, there were many girls pursuing Su Qi. Rumor had it that he changed girlfriends every month and was well known for being a playboy.
It was also said that Su Qi often went to those foul entertainment places like pubs and KTVs. His parents didnât care what he did, and the teachers in school couldnât do anything to him.
That girl was one of his girlfriends.
Seeing that I had agreed so quickly, Dongyu calmed down and immediately added, âAlso, stop coming to school to wait for me.â
âWhy?â
âYou can take the public transport home by yourself. Although Iâm only in my first year, school finishes late for me. You donât have to wait for me and delay doing your homework.â
.
I wasnât happy to hear that.
âNo, I want to go home with you!â
âListen to me, Xiachun!â
âThe bus is too crowded!â
As I started complaining, my father knocked on the door. âDinner is ready. Come out and eat!â
That was the end of the conversation.
The next day, as usual, I went to wait for him to finish school and then we went home together.
And I didnât run into that pest Su Qi again.
Until one dayâ
Just as I walked out of the school gate with my school bag on my back, I ran into the girl who barged into the infirmary the other day.
She seemed to have been waiting for some time, to the extent that as soon as I had stepped out of the school gate, she came straight towards me. She stopped a few steps in front of me.
âYouâre Yin Xiachun, right?â
I stared at her questioningly. âWhat about it?â
There were two tall and menacing looking girls standing behind her.
âCome here!â
Dragging me by the strap of my school bag, she led me to the corner by the school gate. She pushed me against the wall and sneered.
âIâm warning you, stay away from Su Qi! Donât go fantasizing that just because he wants to woo you, he really likes you. Itâs just a whim for him and heâs only doing it for fun!â
âIâll keep my distance even without your warning.â
âDid you know that Su Qi and Yin Dongyu fought?â she suddenly questioned me.
Upon hearing this, I suddenly recalled there were bruises on Dongyuâs knuckles when he came back from school last night.
When I asked, he only said that it was the result of his own carelessness.
âWhat happened?â
âWhat else? Itâs all because of you! That guy Su Qi did not believe you were Yin Dongyuâs girlfriend. He looked him up and declared that he was going to woo you. I donât know what exactly the two of them said, but they got into a fight and almost got punished.â
The school thought highly of Yin Dongyu because of his excellent academic performance. Hence, they had only issued him with a verbal warning over this incident.
Since he had not been dealt any demerit points, Yin Dongyu, out of fairness, only gave Su Qi a verbal warning as well.
Meanwhile, I got increasingly confused. âWhat does that have to do with me?â
âYouâre Yin Dongyuâs sister, arenât you?! He said it himself when Su Qi went to look for him yesterday!â
I was stunned. I didnât know why, but Dong Yuâs quick clarification of our relationship made me feel⦠angry and unhappy.
Why was he so eager to clarify our relationship?
With these conflicted feelings in my heart, my tone grew angry. âSo youâre here to look for me over this matter?â
I studied her, and added skeptically, âYouâre not into Su Qi, are you?â
âIâm Su Qiâs girlfriend!â She raised her head and said this haughtily, as though she was some high and mighty nobility.
âOh, but I donât think he really likes you! Otherwise, he wouldnât have said that he wanted to woo me in front of you. I think itâs just your one-sided wishful thinking!â
