Chapter 3 The Big Secret of Nonsense Conjecture 1
The more difficult the times, the slower time seems to pass, making people feel as if each day is a year long or even anxious and irritable.
The hustle and bustle of the street was still far away and sometimes near, but the quiet alley seemed to be really isolated from the world. Apart from the two people who were both very embarrassed at the moment, no other figures could be seen.
Ye Xiaoling looked at the pale-faced man in front of her with some confusion. His eyes were not as bright as usual. His straight legs were stretched out weakly but casually, making him look even taller and slenderer. A few strands of his clean black hair were scattered in front of his forehead, fluttering in the breeze from time to time.
Seeing that he finally finished reporting the location and hung up the phone, Ye Xiaoling hurriedly sat down opposite him, nervously wrapped her arms around her knees, her pants were torn into deep wrinkles by her hands, as if they would be torn in the next second by her strange strength.
Because her movements were too eye-catching, Yuan Ye couldn't help but raise his sleepy eyes and look at her quietly again.
Is she...feeling guilty?
What is this strange girl like? She has the strength of Hercules, the appearance of a doll, and such an unpredictable multiple personality...
Tsk!
Yuan Ye, who always adhered to the concept of "handling things calmly" when encountering things, began to become confused and bewildered, as if there were countless secrets hidden behind Ye Xiaoling waiting for his approach and exploration, but... he had no reason to want to understand her at all!
For a moment, Yuan Ye fell into a difficult state of contemplation again, and his eyelids gradually closed uncontrollably again, but suddenly he heard Ye Xiaoling's trembling voice coming softly: "Is it... painful?"
Yuan Ye looked at Ye Xiaoling's still red eyes. He suddenly felt a little at a loss and even ignored the pain in his body.
It seems like I should let her calm down first?
"It doesn't hurt that much, actually." In order to make this lie more real, Yuan Ye deliberately relaxed his brows and even his voice became a little more relaxed, "I just feel a little tired."
"Tired...?" Ye Xiaoling's eyes widened like two ripe grapes. "But I was the one who did it just now?"
And when he appeared, he was pressed to the ground by himself...
Yuan Ye's expression suddenly turned very ugly. He coughed a few times, but before he could find a more appropriate reason, he heard a gloating voice coming from not far away, accompanied by a sharp whistle: "It seems that today... I almost missed a good show?"
Ye Xiaoling, who had always been on "alert", jumped up flexibly from the ground, while Yuan Ye let out a long breath, as if he saw a ray of hope from heaven...
Reinforcements...finally arrived!
At the junction of the alley and the street, a young boy walked quickly with a brisk pace, whistling a pleasant whistle. His golden hair was extremely dazzling in the sun, and the almost transparent hair tips swept across his black eyes that were full of vitality and unrestrainedness. In the depths of his eyes, a childish mischievous atmosphere was looming, as if there were two naughty demons living there.
On the slender index finger, an exquisite key ring was swung back and forth with flexible and skillful movements. The collision of the ornament and the key made a crisp sound, adding a bit of joy to this quiet alley.
This boy...
Ye Xiaoling's guard gradually relaxed under his contagious smile, and her tense nerves began to soften.
He seems to be Yuan Ye's friend? I saw them fighting side by side at Qiancheng Mall this morning...
"My beauty, I know how powerful you are, so I surrender first! I have no ill intentions!" He approached Ye Xiaoling with a smile, "I'm a friend of this guy. I heard that he was injured, so I came to... take care of him?"
But he heard Yuan Ye next to him sneer and retort: "Actually, you are here to watch the show, right, Gu Nan?"
Gu Nan just raised his eyes more ostentatiously, but his gaze fell on Ye Xiaoling again.
"Are you... Yuan Ye's friend?" Finally figuring out the situation, Ye Xiaoling stood up obediently and nodded to him a little awkwardly, "Originally I wanted to carry him... No, carry him to the hospital, but he insisted on waiting for you to come..."
Puff!
Before Ye Xiaoling could finish, Gu Nan couldn't help but let out a shrill laugh, then pointed at Yuan Ye without hesitation and asked a series of questions, which sounded mocking: "Carry him? Carry him to the hospital? You have come to this day too!"
There was a flash of extremely unhappy light in Yuan Ye's eyes, but he suppressed it forcefully. He just raised his hand calmly and slowly, and gently hooked his bony fingers. His voice was low and elegant: "Do you want to continue to laugh at me?"
Gu Nan wiped away the tears of laughter and ran to Yuan Ye's side: "Okay! My respected young master! I will help you up now! But... what on earth happened?"
Yuan Ye's movements froze again and he lowered his head slightly, obviously not wanting to answer.
Ye Xiaoling carefully observed the way Gu Nan and Yuan Ye got along with each other, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the two of them... are really good friends!
As the instigator who injured Yuan Ye for no reason, Ye Xiaoling felt that she had the responsibility to explain what happened, so she took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to walk in front of Gu Nan, and explained the "oolong incident" that happened an hour ago with a guilty look on her face...
"So it's all my fault! I misunderstood Yuan Ye!" As soon as she finished speaking, she bowed deeply, her cheeks burning hot, "I'm really sorry!"
When will she be able to change her impulsive personality?
I really can’t imagine who will be hurt next time…
"No... rather than saying sorry... hahaha..." Gu Nan had already covered his stomach and laughed exaggeratedly, "You did a great job!" But when he heard Yuan Ye cough a few times in displeasure, he immediately put away his smile seriously, but still couldn't help but extend his hand enthusiastically, his voice as warm as the sun, "Anyway, it's nice to meet you! It was you who helped us in the mall this morning, right? My name is Gu Nan, what's yours?"
Thinking of what happened before, Ye Xiaoling waved her hands in panic and stammered, "My name is Ye Xiaoling..."
This young man named Gu Nan is a completely different person from Yuan Ye!
"This is my business card." Gu Nan blinked, took it out of his pocket fluently, and stuffed it into Ye Xiaoling's hand without saying anything. "We'll contact each other if we have the chance in the future, right?"
"Ah?" Ye Xiaoling held the business card in her hand blankly, "What contact?"
They are not familiar with each other, right? Will there be a chance for them to meet again?
Yuan Ye glanced at Gu Nan, who was still smiling, thoughtfully, and suddenly raised the corners of his mouth in understanding, and agreed faintly: "There will be a chance."
Looking at the meaningful smiles of the two people in front of her, Ye Xiaoling suddenly had an extremely uneasy premonition. A trace of vigilance flashed across her bright eyes again. She wanted to continue asking, but was interrupted by Gu Nan with a smile: "I mean... thank you for not leaving him here. I will contact you again to express my gratitude! Now I'm taking him to the hospital, wait for my call!"
After saying that, he raised his hand and made a playful phone call gesture, then without saying anything, he helped the dusty Yuan Ye up, and quickly disappeared from Ye Xiaoling's sight.
Is this... the end?
She was left alone again in the empty alley, with only the black mask forgotten in the corner telling of the "brutal" battle that had just taken place.
Ye Xiaoling couldn't help but raise her hand and gently press on the place where her heart was beating.
Plop, plop.
Why is there still no sign of slowing down?
Could it be that the blow this time was really too severe, and she still can't let it go?
After wandering aimlessly in the alley for a long time , Ye Xiaoling felt more and more uneasy. Suddenly, her fingers accidentally touched the furry monster pendant in her pocket!
wallet……
Ye Xiaoling jumped up in shock and angrily pulled out her wallet. She raised her head and looked around, but she could not see Lu Yan and Ling Zheng anywhere.
Seeing that it was almost time for class at the dojo, Ye Xiaoling felt angry and helpless. She simply gritted her teeth and stuffed the wallet back into her pocket!
I'm sorry, Lu Yan! Compared to your wallet, the children in the gym are more important!
