Chapter 3 Contradictions 04
On the way to dinner with Li Wei, I happened to meet Cai Miao and others who were returning from dinner.
When they saw me, they were obviously stunned for a moment. Cai Miao's face was a little stiff, An Jia glanced at me with a cold look, and Chen Yisan stood aside awkwardly.
I vaguely felt that the attitude of these three people towards me suddenly became very strange. Is there any misunderstanding?
Is it because I didn't agree to go out I'm going out now? But didn't I tell them that I had friends coming? Now that Li Wei happens to be here, is there anything wrong with us going out for dinner?
Something must have gone wrong, but I had no idea what.
"Do you know him?" Li Wei leaned her head close to my ear and asked.
I nodded, pointed at Cai Miao and the others, introduced them to Li Wei, and then smiled at the three roommates who suddenly became weird as usual: "This is Li Wei, my friend!"
"I know he's your friend. Didn't you say that before? But I can't believe someone like you has friends." An Jia snorted coldly and said sarcastically.
I was a little stunned by her inexplicable sarcasm.
At this moment, Cai Miao was winking at An Jia vigorously, signaling her to stop talking, and Chen Yisan was also reaching out to pull An Jia.
I was able to hold it back because I didn't know why An Jia suddenly said this, but that doesn't mean Li Wei could hold it back either.
"Hey! Say what you just said again if you have the guts! What do you mean by 'people like you'? What do you know about the kind of person Ye Zi is?"
Seeing that Li Wei's fist was about to fly towards An Jia, I hurriedly stopped her.
"Let's go, stop causing trouble, and go eat quickly. I'm starving."
Li Wei was pulled away by me unwillingly, and An Jia and the others who were left behind were still talking.
"She's really good at pretending, so hypocritical!" An Jia sneered.
"We still don't know if that thing is true or not. Who knows if that girl is just talking nonsense? Even if it is true, you shouldn't say those things to Ai Ye!"
"Hey, Cai Miao, please don't talk about her. An Jia is a person who can't keep secrets. She is straightforward and says whatever she thinks. I asked a classmate in my department. She used to be from F High School. It's true."
"Is it true? You can't really tell from looking at people."
Yeah, you really can’t tell from looking at people.
Whatever they heard, if they had any intention of considering me as a friend, they shouldn't have said it.
Some people may seem nice to you on the surface, but they may not really want to be nice to you.
In one breath, I dragged Li Wei into the small restaurant on the street.
As soon as she sat down, Li Wei couldn't help yelling at me: "Ai Ye, why are you stopping me? You live in the same dormitory with these chatterboxes? They said this to you and you didn't say anything. Are you dead? How are you going to live your life in the future if you let others bully you?"
Li Wei's yell immediately attracted the attention of other people in the restaurant, and then I heard the gossip again.
"So she is Ai Ye? She looks pretty, but how could she do such dirty things!"
"You know what? I heard that Ai Ye's parents are divorced. It's possible that she has a dark mind, so it's not hard to understand why she would do something like that!"
"Yes! Last time when the department was recruiting new members, I saw that girl arguing with a boy. The tone of their conversation was so spicy! This girl is not as simple as she looks."
"In the end, I still feel pity for Mo Beibei. I heard that she got seriously ill because of the bullying. She was even rushed to the hospital yesterday because of severe bleeding in her lower abdomen!"
The key information is always in the keywords, such as "Mo Beibei".
I really thought that there was nothing left to talk about between Mo Beibei and I. It was all in the past, so why did they still like to bring it up?
Are you happy if you slander others and yourself at the same time?
Even if everyone believed the rumors and it was me, Ai Ye, who hurt Mo Beibei, but would it sound good if people told everyone that she was abandoned by someone and ended up with nothing?
"Who told you that Mo Beibei was hurt by Ai Ye? Ask the person who passed the message to you, who hurt whom! She was the one who stole Ai Ye's boyfriend, what do you know!"
Li Wei was so angry that she walked up to the table where the gossips were coming from, picked up the beer bottle on the table and smashed it, cursing with red eyes. Everyone present was frightened and stunned.
I vaguely felt my scalp tingling and I guess I couldn’t finish this meal.
"Yeah, who knows who is cheap! Who pretends to be noble all day long, saying that she has broken up with her ex-boyfriend? Who flirts with her ex-boyfriend in public? If she hadn't been entangled, would Lin Feng force Beibei to break up?" A person walked out from the table behind and retorted sarcastically. It was Leng Yuting again.
I was thinking, since the beginning of the school year, Mo Beibei seems to be less arrogant than before, and every time she sees me, she has a guilty expression. Seeing that she has no intention of bullying me anymore, who would have the time to bring up those old things? I forgot about the nosy Leng Yuting.
"Where did you come from? What benefits did Mo Beibei give you? Why are you speaking for her like this!" Li Wei didn't know Leng Yuting and yelled back on the spot.
As a result, the entire restaurant became a battlefield between Li Wei and Leng Yuting. The two fought fiercely and no one else could stop them.
I rubbed my arm that had hit the corner of the table after being pushed out by Li Wei, and looked at Li Wei and Leng Yuting who were wrestling with each other, feeling a little dazed.
This is clearly a matter between Mo Beibei and me, but why are we, the parties involved, one lying in the hospital recuperating while the other sits aside rubbing his arm, while two outsiders are fighting endlessly?
Li Wei and Leng Yuting were fighting and were finally separated by a group of people who came. When I saw Leng Zimo, I suddenly felt like I was hit hard on the head and I couldn't react for a long time.
"What are you doing? You are already a grown-up, but you are still fighting like a shrew! Leng Yuting, is this what your mother taught you?" Leng Zimo angrily pulled Leng Yuting, whose face was bruised, over and roared angrily.
Then, I heard Leng Yuting call Leng Zimo "brother" in a wronged tone.
What a dramatic thing! It just happened.
Li Wei wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, pushed away Ji Yusheng who came with Leng Zimo and was staring at her, and walked towards me .
"So you're in the same group! I'm so unlucky today. I've only met annoying people all night! Ai Ye, let's go and eat somewhere else!"
Leng Zimo was in a hurry when he first came in, so he didn't see clearly who was fighting with his sister. When he saw Li Wei, I clearly saw that Leng Zimo's body suddenly stiffened, and then he seemed to think of something, looked around, and saw me sitting in the corner, his deep eyes froze, and a trace of surprise flashed across his handsome face.
Leng Zimo certainly didn't expect that it was me and my friends who beat his sister into this state.
I also didn't expect that Leng Yuting is actually Leng Zimo's sister.
Leng Zimo didn't know Lin Feng, but Leng Yuting was Lin Feng's cousin. What a weird thing! They were obviously a family, but they didn't know each other.
I helped Li Wei leave, and when I went out, I glanced at Leng Zimo again. He still looked like he was frozen in place, staring at me blankly.
I smiled apologetically at Leng Zimo and never looked back.
That night I had a dream. I dreamt of that dark rainy alley, the young man , and myself lying on the ground calling for help...
Everyone has a smell, which is called body odor. For some people, you only meet them once, even if you don't see their appearance, you can still remember their body odor, which is so different from others, so clear and pure.
I never told anyone that Leng Zimo and I had met before.
From the first moment we met, I smelled his unique body fragrance and recognized the boy who left me begging for help...
If Li Wei hadn't found me, maybe I would have died in that damp and dark alley that day after being abandoned...
