Chapter 2: The Mysterious Transfer Student 3
Xia Arthur and I discussed it secretly for a long time, but we still had no idea why he suddenly came out of the phone...Originally, it was already fantastic enough that such a thing happened, and now it seems impossible to find the reason.
We couldn't come to a conclusion, so we had to put the matter aside for now and just think of it as God playing a joke on us.
But the butler was really interesting. He was very worried that Xia Arthur's personality was too strange and would scare away me, a friend he had made with great difficulty. So when Xia Arthur was forced to have breakfast, he pulled me aside and told me a lot of his little problems and quirks - how he always fantasized about aliens in the world, how he didn't like crowded places, how he felt he could communicate with plants, and so on.
The more I listened, the funnier it became. How could there be such a weird guy?
Xia Arthur realized something was wrong and finally couldn't help but use the excuse of going to school to forcibly drag me out.
"Are you still going to class?! Who said you didn't want to be late again?"
"Cough cough... Let's go catch the bus!" I coughed twice, turned around and prepared to walk towards the bus stop.
But unexpectedly, Xi Yaser didn’t move at all, with a lazy look on his handsome face: “Bus? I won’t take the bus!”
At this time, the housekeeper happened to come out from behind the door and said, "Master, I have arranged for a driver to drive you to school!"
I jumped for joy and said, "That's great! Is the housekeeper coming too? I also want to hear about Xia Arthur's childhood."
"No problem, I..."
Before the butler finished speaking, I felt a flash before my eyes and my body did a 360-degree clockwise rotation out of thin air. When I came to my senses, Xia Arthur had already pulled my wrist and walked several meters away.
Without even turning his head, he shouted, "No need! I suddenly wanted to try taking the bus today..."
In the early morning, every bus is packed with people, like cans of sardines. As soon as the door opens, some unlucky person may be squeezed out.
After waiting for twenty minutes, Xia Arthur and I still couldn't get on the bus... Not because we couldn't squeeze in, but because Xia Arthur simply refused to squeeze in!
"This one won't work. Look, that old man is about to break the window! Let's wait for the next one."
Xia Arthur grabbed my collar with a dark face, making it impossible for me to move. I could only watch the bus drive away.
I'm furious!
"Xiasi, we can't wait any longer! There won't be an empty car at this time!" I clenched my fists. "No matter what, I must get on the next one!"
He curled his lips: "It's so crowded, how can we get in?"
"Stop talking nonsense and watch me!"
After a while, another crowded bus slowly stopped. I grabbed Xia Arthur's arm and burst out with my little universe called "I will never be late".
"Hey! Squeeze harder!"
I dragged Xia Arthur's arm and pushed him onto the bus. He was a big boy of about 1.8 meters tall, but he was at a loss like a child. He was hit by the crowd like a sandbag, and kept whispering sorry.
I suddenly remembered that the housekeeper said that he was not used to being in crowded places, and every time he walked into a crowd, he wanted to avoid being touched by others.
But now is not the time to worry about this!
"Xiase, don't just stand there, follow me and squeeze in!"
A little paleness appeared on Xia Arthur's handsome face. His slender and powerful hands tightly grasped my arm, but he just stood at the car door without moving.
I was stunned for a moment, and a trace of sympathy arose in my heart... Oh, forget it, this guy is also a disabled child.
I carefully pulled the hem of his clothes and pulled him to a corner where there were not many people around.
His butterfly-wing-like eyelashes fluttered slowly. The sunlight shone through the window glass onto his profile, making him look like a handsome boy from a comic book.
I asked anxiously, "Xia Arthur, are you okay?"
Before he answered, I was suddenly bumped by someone behind me and fell directly into his arms. In an instant, a fresh breath came into my nose.
My face felt slightly hot and I quickly said "sorry" and tried to step away.
But Xia Arthur was faster. He put his hand on my back and I felt a surge of force - he actually switched positions with me and held me tightly in his arms!
A warm feeling welled up in my heart. This guy doesn't have such a bad personality.
I moved my neck shyly and whispered, "Um...thank you..."
He looked away slightly, his expression a little unnatural: "Don't get me wrong, I'm just afraid that you won't be able to stand steadily and cause me to fall."
Humph... I won't be fooled by his cold appearance! Xia Arthur, this guy who says one thing and means another!
However, this is the first time a boy protected me on the bus, and it felt so strange... Although it was a little bit awkward, it was mostly sweet, like holding a piece of my favorite milk candy...
“Plop! Plop!”
Unconsciously, my heart beat faster.
No, now Xia Arthur and I are so close, it would be terrible if he heard us!
"Wow...it's so hot..." I pretended to fan myself while raising my head to look at the scenery outside the window.
Suddenly, my eyes caught sight of a girl in the crowd in front of me...Huh? She looks so familiar!
This girl had her back to me, and she was wearing a shining jewel hairpin on her gorgeous princess head… By the way, our campus goddess Ji Peipei also had one of those hairpins, and her back was also very beautiful, with her fair hands gently grasping the handle. The passengers around her were very compassionate and gave her some space, as if they were afraid of squeezing her.
Suddenly, the beautiful girl turned towards me.
"Ah!" I exclaimed in surprise.
Oh my God, isn’t that Ji Peipei herself?
Ji Peipei is a campus beauty... Rumor has it that her family is a wealthy family with a mansion and a private jet. How could such a proud and elegant girl appear on a crowded and stuffy bus?
"What's wrong with you?" Xia Arthur had his back to her and didn't see it.
Before I could answer, I saw a thin man approaching Ji Peipei stealthily. He looked around, and when he saw that no one was paying attention, he reached out and grabbed the zipper of her schoolbag .
I gasped and nervously grabbed Xi Yaser's sleeve: "What should I do, there is a thief!"
The bus was too noisy, and he didn't hear me clearly: "What did you say?"
"No, I have to stop him!" Without caring about anything else, I broke away from Xia Arthur and struggled to squeeze through the crowd towards Ji Peipei and the thief.
Humph, I'm already prepared. I'll take out my cell phone and take a photo of the thief to leave evidence!
There were too many people on the bus. I just managed to squeeze in behind Ji Peipei when the driver suddenly slammed on the brakes.
“Squeak!”
Amid the harsh friction sound, I staggered forward and lost my grip on the phone in my hand, which flew out with a whoosh.
"Bang!" My cell phone was spinning in the air and suddenly hit the head of the shifty thief.
"Ouch!" The thief screamed and retracted his hand that was about to steal something. "Who is it?"
The thief covered his head and turned around viciously, his eyes quickly locked on me who was still maintaining a strange posture.
My heart sank. Oh no! I was targeted by a thief!
I subconsciously turned around to ask Xi Yaser for help, but found that he had disappeared again without knowing when! The people who were originally standing around him did not notice this abnormal situation, as if they did not see it, and continued to stand there safely.
"Xia Arthur!" I no longer cared about the thief. I shouted and rushed to Ji Peipei and picked up the phone that had fallen to the ground.
Sure enough, Xia Arthur returned to the phone. He seemed to be knocked unconscious by the blow just now, and fell to the ground with his round belly. His eyes turned into circles of mosquito coils, and there were a few small stars around his head .
While I was looking down at my phone, the thief grabbed my collar and said, "Little devil! Where did you come from? Are you looking for death?"
He roared ferociously and his saliva almost splashed on my face, making me feel sick.
The passengers in the car were also startled and looked over here.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
"It seems like a fight is about to break out..."
…
I straightened my chest and shouted, "You are a thief! You just tried to steal my classmate's things, and now you want to hit him?"
Although I roared with great vigor, I actually had no confidence. Woohoo… This bad guy looked too fierce. I had hoped that Xi Yasser could help me, but…
"Really orange?"
At this moment, Ji Peipei saw my appearance clearly and couldn't help but scream. I don't know why, her face suddenly turned pale.
I quickly comforted her: "Ji Peipei, this person just tried to steal your things, but I found out, don't worry!"
The thief glanced at Ji Peipei guiltily, then glared at me fiercely: "Which eye of yours saw me stealing?"
Ji Peipei nodded gratefully at me, looking a little flustered. There was worry in her expression, but more of nervousness.
I mustered up my courage and said, "Don't deny it! I took pictures with my phone to prove it!"
The thief raised his hand in anger and said, "You are so young, yet you are lying! Do you deserve a beating?"
The people around gasped, and Ji Peipei even screamed "Ah".
It’s over, I’m going to be beaten!
I closed my eyes in despair, and seemed to feel a gust of cool wind in my ears...
One second...
Two seconds...
A "pop" sound finally occurred, but my face didn't hurt at all.
"stop!"
A deep and magnetic male voice sounded above my head, firmly stopping the thief who wanted to commit a crime, as if he was a god who descended from the sky just to save poor me.
The crowded crowd exclaimed in surprise and admiration.
"What a brave young man!"
"She looks so weak, but I didn't expect her to be so skilled!"
I opened one eye and peeked over...
Wow! A super beautiful boy! Tall and handsome, delicate face like an elf, skin like white jade under the moonlight, especially those beautiful amethyst eyes , shining with dazzling light... It's so beautiful!
Oh my God, how can there be such a beautiful elf prince in real life!
