Chapter 3: Fate Takes You by Surprise 05
Ever since Ju Chenxi told me to go home early after school, I have been waiting with all my heart for the "ding-ling-ling" ringing sound.
Fortunately, the bell for the end of get out of class rang on time. I quickly packed my schoolbag and ran out of the campus.
The driver of Ju Chenxi's family didn't come to the school to pick him up today, so I didn't have a car to take, so I had to take the bus by myself. The distance from school to Ju Chenxi's home is not very far, but there is only one bus that goes directly to the middle of the mountain.
After waiting for ten minutes, I finally got on the bus. After five or six stops, the bus arrived at the terminal. I got off the bus in a hurry and ran towards the villa area where Ju Chenxi lived.
Just as I was approaching the gate of the villa, I saw the car that took Ju Chenxi and I to school in the morning driving out of the gate of the villa.
When passing by me, the car slowly stopped, and Aunt Liu, who was sitting in the back seat, rolled down the window and greeted me: "Xiao Le, you're back!"
I went up to her and asked in surprise, "Auntie, where are you going? Didn't Ju Chenxi say there's a BBQ at home tonight? Aren't you going to join us?"
"Oh, we had originally arranged a BBQ to welcome you to our house, but Auntie had something urgent to do and needed to go out for a while. I guess she won't be back early, so the BBQ will have to be held another day." Aunt Liu said apologetically.
"Oh, it's okay, Auntie, just do your thing and don't worry about me." I waved my hands quickly to indicate that it was okay.
"Well, then you and Xiaoxi can have dinner together at home. The ingredients at home are ready, just let Xiaoxi cook for you, he is a good cook!" As she said that, the aunt winked at me, probably thinking of the way Ju Chenxi cooked.
"Okay, I understand." I responded to Aunt Liu with a smile.
I didn't expect that Ju Chenxi can cook! This is very different from his previous cold image ! I really want to see what Ju Chenxi looks like when he cooks.
After saying goodbye to Aunt Liu, I walked towards Ju Chenxi’s villa excitedly while thinking about these things.
"Chenxi, can you pour me a glass of water?" As soon as I walked to the door of the villa, I heard a pleasant female voice speaking inside.
After opening the door——
"Ah, who are you?"
"Uh, who is she?" The strange girl and I questioned at the same time, and we both turned our eyes to Ju Chenxi.
"Um, let me introduce you, Han Shengya, a distant relative." Ju Chenxi stretched out his slender fingers, pointed at the strange girl opposite and introduced her to me.
"Yan Zhile, who lives in my house, is the daughter of my mother's friend."
After saying a few simple words, Ju Chenxi walked through us as if nothing had happened and went straight to the tea room to get some water, leaving Han Shengya and I alone in embarrassment.
I carefully looked at the strange girl in front of me with the corner of my eye. She had neatly trimmed pointed eyebrows and a pair of phoenix eyes. Her gaze seemed very sharp, giving people a not very friendly feeling.
"Yan Zhile, can you cook?" When I was about to analyze Han Shengya more carefully, Ju Chenxi stopped me and successfully diverted my attention.
"Ah, what?" However, my mind was full of thoughts about Han Shengya, and I didn't hear clearly what Ju Chenxi asked me.
"I'll cook the dishes and you cook the rice, okay?" Ju Chenxi patted my head and asked.
"Oh, okay, okay, of course no problem." I nodded quickly in agreement.
"Oh, by the way, we haven't finished our homework yet. I'll do it later. You cook first."
Damn Ju Chenxi, he treated me like this in front of strangers, patting me and ordering me around.
But, I can’t seem to say no.
After agreeing to Ju Chenxi, I walked into the kitchen to wash my hands and wash the rice. Ju Chenxi handed the poured water to Han Shengya, and the two of them talked and laughed about something and walked into the room.
The topics they discussed were obviously things I couldn't understand.
In the evening, the sun quietly set behind the mountain, and some afterglow refracted into the kitchen, covering the entire kitchen with an orange halo.
I was washing rice and cooking in the kitchen, feeling lonely. I thought a delicious BBQ was waiting for me when I came back, but I didn't expect that besides Han Shengya's unfriendliness, Ju Chenxi was bossing me around. But is Ju Chenxi really good at cooking? What kind of specialties will he cook for us later?
When I thought of this, I couldn't help but become curious again.
"Ha ha……"
"Hehe..." At this moment, the laughter of Ju Chenxi and Han Shengya came from the study next door. I suddenly felt that the laughter was so harsh. Didn't they say they were tutoring? How could it be so funny? I didn't know what I was thinking. I immediately decided to take two cups of hot milk that I had just warmed up in the microwave to their room and see what they were talking about.
I tiptoed and moved gently to the study. The moment I opened the door, I saw Han Shengya hurriedly closing the drawer and with a panicked expression.
Oh my god! She was actually looking through Ju Chenxi's drawers and wallet! And who knows where Ju Chenxi went!
"Student Han, why are you rummaging through Ju Chenxi's things?" Seeing Han Shengya hurriedly closing Ju Chenxi's drawer, I quickly put the milk aside and confronted her with a little anger.
Han Shengya coughed twice, shook her shoulders, and then said to me with a very disapproving expression: "Did I? Do you have any evidence?"
"Hey, Han Shengya!" Hearing her attitude, I realized that she was not someone to be trifled with and was very good at disguising herself.
"Why are you shouting so loudly? I'm not deaf, I can hear you." She rolled her eyes at me and sneered.
"I just saw with my own eyes you rummaging through the wallet and notebook in Ju Chenxi's drawer. You closed the door after I pushed it open. Don't try to lie to me! Ju Chenxi doesn't like others touching his things!" If Ju Chenxi knew about this, who knows how angry he would be.
"How do you know that I touched his wallet and read his diary? You were at the door and I was at the desk. It was so far away, could you see clearly?" Han Shengya was indeed a powerful person. She continued to argue for herself.
"Hey, how can you lie like that? You shouldn't..."
Before I could finish my sentence, I impulsively walked forward, raised my finger and pointed at the evidence, ready to confront her, but accidentally knocked over a glass of water on the table.
What was even more unfortunate was that the glass of water actually spilled on Han Shengya's skirt.
The water instantly misted up, wetting a large area of her skirt.
"Ah..." Han Shengya screamed, and Ju Chenxi rushed over from the bathroom after hearing the sound.
He looked at the scene in front of him, stunned at first, then turned to me and questioned: "Hey, Yan Zhile, I just went to the bathroom, what's wrong with you?"
"Chenxi, this is what happened. I was trying to find an English vocabulary book just now, but Zhile came in and saw it. She scolded me without any reason and said I was rummaging through your things. I tried to explain to her but she didn't listen. She even deliberately knocked over the water you poured for me, getting my skirt wet." Han Shengya cried before me, aggrieved.
"You're lying! I just saw you rummaging through Ju Chenxi's drawer and touching the wallet and notebook inside. Don't think I didn't see it because you were quick." I was very angry at Han Shengya's distortion of the facts. "Besides, I didn't knock over the glass of water on purpose. It was just an accident."
"Did you really touch my wallet and diary?" Ju Chenxi looked at me, then at Han Shengya, and asked expressionlessly .
It turns out that notebook is his diary! I didn’t expect that a cool guy like him would have the habit of keeping a diary! However, at this time, I think I shouldn’t pay attention to this!
"No, no. Here, I'm just looking for the English vocabulary book you told me about before. You said this vocabulary book is very good and will be of great help in improving my English grades, so I wanted to take a look at it." Han Shengya explained while raising the vocabulary book in her hand.
Ju Chenxi seemed to believe her explanation, and his expression immediately eased a lot.
Seeing this, Han Shengya pouted again, shook off the wet part of her clothes, looked at me and said, "But, Zhile, this water was poured for me by Chenxi, and you knocked it over before I could drink it. Now, what should I do with my clothes?"
"I said I didn't mean it! Besides, your clothes were only a little wet..." I tried to smooth over the matter, but before I could finish, Ju Chenxi's voice exploded in my ears.
"Yan Zhile! Last time in the cinema you splashed me all over for no apparent reason, and now you're splashing me at my house?"
I was completely infuriated by the fact that Ju Chenxi completely believed the lying Han Shengya and didn't believe me, and even yelled at me!
"I told you I didn't mean it, why don't you believe me?" I tried to hold back the tears that were about to burst out and shouted at him in a low voice, "You don't know anything, so don't get mad at me!"
In order to avoid further embarrassment, I pushed away Ju Chenxi who was blocking the door and rushed out.
My emotions completely collapsed the moment I walked out the door, and my tears flowed down like a dam bursting.
Ju Chenxi, you shouldn't be the kind of person who bites people without knowing right or wrong, because the other person is Han Shengya?
You have let me down too much!
