Chapter 4: Mars hits the Earth 3
Well?
Me, what’s the point of my efforts?
The key is, it was Luo Zihan himself...
Huh? Wait! Sister Shang Mei, what does she mean by this! Isn't she asking me to untie Luo Zihan's knot?
"Sister Shang Mei, you misunderstood!"
"Misunderstanding?" Sister Shang Mei pretended not to understand and asked with blinking eyes, "Qianqian, what did I misunderstand?"
“That’s right, that’s right…” I tried to explain myself anxiously, but the more I panicked, the more confused I became. “Sister Shang Mei, Luo Zihan and I are just ordinary friends. It’s not what you think!”
Sister Shang Mei looked at me quietly without , but her gaze made me feel uneasy and my cheeks gradually became hot.
"Well, actually... I already regard Luo Zihan as a good friend, a very important good friend."
However, this is probably just my wishful thinking. In Luo Zihan's eyes, I am probably still that stupid girl with a poor brain.
"Oh, good friends." Sister Shang Mei nodded as if she had suddenly understood something, and looked at me and said, "Qianqian, what do you think I think? I asked you to keep working hard because I hope you and Zihan can become good friends! Well, now it seems that you two are getting along very well."
"Sister Shang Mei, you...you are teasing me!"
I finally realized that I had fallen into Sister Shang Mei's trap. I felt so embarrassed and shy that I almost found a hole to crawl into.
"Haha! Qianqian, you're so cute!"
"Sister Shang Mei, you bully me!"
"Qianqian, Zihan likes girls like you, silly but cute."
"Sister Shang Mei, you are talking nonsense! Luo Zihan hates stupid girls the most."
"You're not stupid? You're cute, cute!"
…
I admitted defeat, surrendered, frowned, and stared at Sister Shang Mei in silence, but my cheeks were getting hot. I never thought that I would be a cute girl in Luo Zihan's eyes.
My meeting and acquaintance with Luo Zihan did not have a pleasant start, but after repeated quarrels and confrontations, the two of us got to know each other better and got along more and more harmoniously.
CAfter the weekend, I brought Min Hyuk's autographed photo to school and gave it to the three young masters in Platinum Hall.
At first, I was a little angry and hated them for not keeping a secret. But in the end, I didn't have the heart to do it and still handed them the autographed photo as promised.
"Qianqian, thank you!"
The gentle and elegant Master Ke looked at me with a smile, stood about two meters away from me, and bowed deeply to me like a gentleman to express his gratitude.
"You're welcome. It's just a small favor."
I really like Master Ke’s smile, which is as warm as the spring breeze and as pure as spring water, but... unfortunately, that master has mysophobia. So far, I have been a frequent visitor to the Platinum Hall, but I have never been within two meters of Master Ke.
The other young master, the playboy Xia Chengxi, was passionate and dazzlingly beautiful. When I looked at Mr. Xia for a long time, I always felt that he was too dazzling and lacked a sense of reality and security.
"Qianqian, thank you so much!"
Mr. Xia put away the autographed photo, a smile filled his enchanting and beautiful eyes, and he opened his arms to give me a grateful hug.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t adapt and couldn’t bear it, so I could only quickly dodge and run away.
"Mr. Xia, you're welcome, really!"
I smiled awkwardly and waved to him from a distance.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Along with an evil and unruly laughter, the last young master, the devilish young master Ou Qi Yao appeared.
"Qianqian, to thank you, I will tell you a secret."
secret?
What secret?
My curiosity suddenly surged, and I opened my eyes wide and stared at him motionlessly.
"Want to know?"
"Yeah." I nodded vigorously.
Ou Qiyao raised his thin lips and said with a smile: "Qianqian, you are a very special girl to Zihan. So, go to the squash room upstairs to find Zihan. He is playing squash."
"Okay, thank you. But..." I looked up at Ou Qiyao and asked, "Then, what is the secret you want to tell me?"
Young Master Ou looked at me, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"Qianqian, you...you should go find Zihan as soon as possible."
"But……"
A few black lines appeared on Young Master Ou's forehead, and he smiled in an extremely helpless manner.
"Qianqian, I am really defeated by you."
I looked at him in confusion and sighed softly.
Ou Qiyao lowered his eyes and said helplessly: "Qianqian, Zihan's whereabouts is the secret I want to tell you!"
"What?" I frowned in surprise and glared at Ou Qiyao angrily, "Master Ou, you want to play tricks on me again, right? Even without your hint, I can find Luo Zihan in the Platinum Hall!"
At this moment, the omnipotent Young Master Ou immediately turned pale and begged for mercy from me in a helpless manner.
"Haha! Yao, it's rare to see you like this."
"Yao, you underestimate Qianqian! Qianqian is the one who made Zihan admit defeat."
Young Master Xia and Young Master Ke came over and deliberately made sarcastic remarks in front of Young Master Ou. The three of them smiled at each other and then set their eyes on me.
Eh? It has nothing to do with me. I didn't provoke you.
"Qianqian, I'll leave Zihan in your care."
The three young masters actually said the same thing in unison, which made me run away instantly and head straight for the spiral staircase. I forgot to ask them which floor the squash room was on, so I had to go around looking for it for a long time.
"Ah, I finally found it!"
Looking at the glittering gold-plated doorplate, I suddenly felt dizzy. This is too much. Can't we just put a label on it? Is it necessary to waste resources like this?
I raised my hand and pushed the door gently, and it opened.
C The sunlight falls quietly, and the mottled and interlaced light and shadow divide the ground into layers of grids, shining brightly with a luster like broken gold.
When I walked in, Luo Zihan was concentrating on playing tennis and didn't notice me. Looking at his tall and straight back and his agile and vigorous movements, I just felt like I couldn't take my eyes off him.
Luo Zihan is really handsome!
Just as I was gazing at him in ecstasy, Luo Zihan's handsome face suddenly magnified and came into my sight.
Uh? He, when did he come to me?
"You don't have to do remedial lessons today, so why are you here?"
Luo Zihan asked softly with a faint smile on his lips, his dark brown hair was soaked with sweat, and without the glasses covering his eyes, his deep black eyes looked even purer and brighter.
I was slightly startled, pouted and said, "Luo Zihan, today is not the day for tutoring, so you forbid me to enter the Platinum Hall? How stingy! Not only are you stingy with your smile, but you also..."
"Yao Qianqian, why do you always have some weird ideas in your head?" Luo Zihan frowned, his beautiful and arrogant face full of helplessness, "Since you are allowed to enter and leave the Platinum Hall, I will not take back the order. Is it possible that the huge Platinum Hall can't accommodate you? What's the matter? What's the matter?"
"Come and give presents to your three best friends."
He stared at her for a moment and asked, "What gift?"
"Min Hyuk's autographed photo!"
As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I saw Luo Zihan pursed his thin lips, his eyes became a little colder, and the shiny beads of sweat on his forehead slowly slid down his face, wetting his hair even more.
I quickly turned around and walked quickly to the row of neatly arranged shelves by the window. I reached out and grabbed a large white towel and handed it to Luo Zihan.
"Wipe the sweat first."
He didn't move, but just looked at me calmly, my appearance reflected in his dark pupils.
"Luo Zihan..." I held the big towel, carefully approached his face, and asked tentatively, "Well, can I help you wipe the sweat off?"
He still didn't react, but his expression became even more gloomy and cold.
I took a deep breath, slowly moved the towel towards his face, and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead.
After a few seconds, he suddenly raised his hand, held my wrist tightly, and looked straight into my eyes with his deep, dark eyes.
"Luo Zihan?"
"So, you went home on the weekends to be with Choi Min Hyuk?" Luo Zihan stared at me, frowning, his eyes cold as frost, with obvious anger, "What on earth is that guy doing! He came to school to find you without permission a few days ago, wasn't he worried that he wouldn't be able to see you on the weekend? Lies! Complete lies! Yao Qianqian, how could a guy like that protect you? How could he be worthy of your love? How..."
"Because he is my only cousin." I looked at Luo Zihan, pursed my lips and smiled, gently broke free from his hand, and continued to wipe the sweat off his face. "You are right, I like Brother Minhe very much. No matter whether he can protect me or stay by my side, he will always be my favorite cousin, the one and only cousin! Luo Zihan, would you abandon your relatives? I believe in Brother Minhe, he would never lie to me. We haven't seen each other for a few months, of course we will miss each other, this is an irreplaceable bond between relatives! Also, a genius like you can make mistakes. Brother Minhe did not lie, he was not at home on the weekend, he went out of town to shoot a commercial, but there is an autographed photo of him at home, I brought it to your three best friends by the way."
"Is this true?" A hint of surprise flashed in Luo Zihan's eyes, and his beautiful face also showed signs of "thawing".
I blinked my eyes briskly, smiled and nodded, "It's absolutely true! But you looked a little scary just now, as if two horns suddenly grew on your head, and you were furious..."
"Yao Qianqian, put away your wild imagination and stop it."
I pouted in dissatisfaction, glared at him angrily, and did not forget to stuff the big towel in my hand into his hand.
Humph! My arms are sore and I am not in the mood to serve Master Luo anymore, so I declare a "strike"!
"Yao Qianqian, you..."
Luo Zihan took the big towel, his pupils shrank, and he stared at me motionlessly. The sunlight like broken gold sprinkled around him, as if it was rippling with beautiful crystal flowers, gradually confusing my vision.
He and I stared at each other silently for a long time, neither of us saying anything. It was not until he suddenly came forward, put his warm palm on my head, and gently rubbed my hair that the stalemate between the two of us came to an end.
"Qianqian, you make me feel helpless."
I looked up at him, pulled down his arm, and said with an apologetic smile: "I'm sorry , I was willful. In fact, I have a gift for you."
After saying that, I took out a piece of printed photo paper from my pocket.
On the snow-white cardboard was not a beautiful color photo, but a black-and-white cartoon portrait, a very cute and realistic portrait!
"I know you have some misunderstandings about Min Hyuk and may not accept his autographed photo, but your three best friends all have autographed photos as gifts, so..." I slowly handed the black and white portrait in my hand to Luo Zihan, feeling a little nervous and more uneasy, afraid that he would shake my hand off. "This is not a photo, I drew it from memory. Luo Zihan, I hope you can accept it, because... this is the smiling face that I want to see the most, and it belongs only to you!"
Luo Zihan took the photo paper from my hand and stared at the painting expressionlessly. He looked at it very seriously and carefully. His long curled eyelashes covered his eyelids neatly and blinked gently like the beautiful wings of a butterfly.
"Is this how you see me?"
He raised his eyebrows and looked at me, his black eyes shining like stars, and his half-smile expression made me a little unpredictable.
I was slightly startled and nodded woodenly: "Well, doesn't it look like it?"
"What do you think?"
"Well... I think they are at least 80% similar." I am confident in my drawing style and comic skills. Besides, I often observe him closely and have already imprinted him in my mind. "Luo Zihan, are you dissatisfied? Yes, I admit that you are more handsome and charming than yourself in the comics... But this is a comic, not a real photo! Look, your smile in the comics is so cute and bright!"
He slowly raised his thin lips and asked helplessly, "So, do you like me like this?"
"of course!"
"But..." Luo Zihan lowered his voice and looked at me deeply, "Qianqian, I will never be able to become myself in the comics."
I didn't quite understand what he meant, so I blinked and stared at him for a long time.
"Luo Zihan, you... I, when did I ask you to look like in the comics? Besides, how can real people and comics be the same? You are even more handsome than the handsome guy in the comics! From now on, I will get angry with anyone who dares to say bad things about you!"
"Qianqian, you are indeed an interesting girl."
Luo Zihan looked at me and smiled softly. The curve of his lips was elegant and perfect, and there was a gentle smile in his beautiful black eyes. It was the most brilliant smile I had ever seen, like the radiance of the sun , which could melt everything in an instant.
Awesome!
I stared at him blankly, feeling a sense of illusory intoxication. My brain seemed to suddenly stop functioning, empty and unable to think. My cheeks became increasingly hot, and my heartbeat accelerated as if out of control.
Me, what’s wrong with me? As if under a spell, she was gradually bewitched by Luo Zihan, her eyes stayed on him, unable to move away.
In the end, Luo Zihan recovered first.
He raised his hand and ruffled my hair, and reminded me lightly: "Qianqian, it's time to come back to your senses."
“Ahem…”
I coughed twice in embarrassment, grabbed his hand and shook it vigorously: "Luo Zihan, have you ever seen your smiling face in the mirror?"
He raised his eyebrows slightly and asked instead of answering, "What's the matter?"
“Well…” I stared at him intently, my heartbeat becoming abnormal again. “It’s too powerful, like a bottomless whirlpool that can suck you in in an instant!”
Luo Zihan remained silent and shook his head awkwardly, but the smile in his eyes continued to deepen.
I don’t know why, but every time I see him smile, I am unconsciously infected, as if bathed in the spring breeze, and my heart is filled with sweet joy.
what to do?
Luo Zihan, he seems to be becoming more and more important to me.
