Chapter 4: The Temptation of Blood and My Loss of Control 1
The school's infirmary was very quiet.
In fact, most of the time, the medical room is quiet. The difference is that this time, after such a large group of people squeezed into the medical room at once, it still remained strangely quiet.
I lowered my head and looked at the wrinkled corner of my clothes. There, he had been holding my hand tightly, and even when he was unconscious, he never let go.
A strange feeling welled up in my heart.
Could it be that this unconscious guy in front of me, with all his inexplicable confessions and feelings towards me, is this true? No, no, no, how could this be possible?
Even if it was love at first sight, it's impossible for us to be so deeply attached to each other all of a sudden, right? Moreover, the time I spent with this guy was less than a whole day!
I reached out and was about to try to take Lagude's hand away from me again, but I heard Kawakami Feng Baozhu's voice sounded faintly at this time.
"How long is this guy going to sleep? Does we, the entire Human Research Institute, have to wait for him silently?" There was a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone, but it was more of a complaint with a hint of coquettishness. It didn't make people angry, but rather feel distressed.
Even I, who am not particularly fond of beauty, couldn't help but turn my attention from Lagoude's hand to Kawakami.
"I'm sorry, it's all because of me that you're in so much trouble." I said guiltily. After Lagude fell into a coma, Akashi called and asked the members of the Human Research Institute to come here as quickly as possible. Although I don't know why Akashi did this, I know that they came here most likely because of me.
"Qiqi, this is not your fault." Teacher Akashi patted my shoulder. "Now I just hope this guy wakes up soon. You and Lagude, you..."
Teacher Akashi looked at me with a complicated expression, then at Lagood, and wanted to say something, but in the end he held back, and the atmosphere fell into silence again.
However, after he said this, I suddenly remembered something very important.
"Teacher, does the forgetfulness water you gave me work differently on different people? I tried it on my parents and it really works, but it has no effect on this guy."
"Teacher, if the Forgetfulness Water doesn't work on this guy, do you have any other way to erase his memory?"
"If his memory can't be erased, what should I do?"
I spoke a lot in one breath, and Akashi-sensei smiled and listened to me calmly. Then, before he could say anything, Kawakami Fuuhotake interrupted and shouted, "Wow wow wow... How could the Forgetfulness Water be ineffective? If the Forgetfulness Water didn't work, there are only two reasons."
"Which two reasons?" I turned to look at Kawakami Feng Baozhu and asked humbly.
"One possibility is that this guy is not human!" said Kawakami Fuu Baozhu.
Uh - my expression froze. Not human? How is that possible! I don't think that after all the adventures I've experienced, anyone I meet might not be a normal human. What's more, this guy is so weak and faints easily. He has nothing in common with the powerful non-humans in front of him.
"What about the second reason?" Thinking of this, I directly rejected the first reason.
"In the second case, this guy's feelings for you are so deep that no matter what happens, he is unwilling to forget you. Because the feelings are so deep and the thoughts are so persistent, the obstruction of the Forget-Me-Not Water, which is an external force, will naturally have no effect." Kawakami Feng Baozhu said.
Uh - the expression on my face continued to freeze: tears, I don’t seem to be willing to accept this second reason!
"Excuse me, is it possible that there is a third reason?" I asked unwillingly.
Kawakami Feng Baozhu shrugged at me, his handsome sword-like eyebrows slightly raised, and he gave me an expression that said "How is that possible".
"But, these two reasons are obviously unrealistic for this guy." I retorted, "He he he...how could he be so deeply in love with me..."
I felt the temperature on my face rising little by little.
I don’t know how Lagoud could speak those corny words so naturally and fluently. Obviously, it is difficult for me to even repeat them.
"If not, then it's the first type, this guy is not human." Kawakami Feng Baozhu looked at me and said.
"Impossible." I rejected it without even thinking. Subconsciously, I thought of the panic I felt when I first learned that I might become a half-blood. I didn't want the unconscious guy in front of me to experience that kind of feeling at all.
After all, he looked so weak. If he experienced the same pain as me, he would not be able to bear it! I silently explained my worries in my heart.
"If it's not the first one, then this guy really likes you very much." Kawakami Feng Baozhu smiled at me ambiguously. I pulled the corners of my mouth, looking at this guy's stunning appearance, but I had the urge to punch him.
"That's not--" I just opened my mouth to retort when my hand was suddenly grabbed forcefully by someone.
"Qiqi, you heard it all, didn't you? Even these outsiders know exactly how I feel about you. It makes no sense for you not to believe it!" A voice that was faint but excited and totally out of place for someone who had just woken up suddenly rang out. I looked down and saw Lagude holding my hand, looking at me with bright eyes.
"Qiqi——" The call was drawn out, and because she had just woken up, it was still a little hoarse, but it made my heart skip a beat.
"La, Lagude, let me go." I lowered my head and growled at him with a red face, "So many people are watching, what are you doing?"
"What's the big deal?" Lagude said nonchalantly, "Who in the whole school hasn't heard about our relationship? Qiqi, you don't have to be so shy. As long as you nod, our relationship will be settled."
Name, status...
I stared at Lagood with wide eyes, and after staring at him for a long time, he still gave me an expression that said "Don't be shy". Only then did I reluctantly admit it again: Well, didn't I already know how shameless this guy was?
"Lagude, I'm already annoyed enough. Please don't say such inexplicable things to me anymore, okay?" I gritted my teeth and shook off Lagude's hand. "I don't know why you did these things, but no matter what they are, I ask you not to get close to me now. Since I can't erase your memory, then you should know that I am now... In short, I don't have the extra mood to deal with you, so please, don't bother me in the future."
"I've already sent you to the infirmary. The teacher should be here soon. You should have some good rest by yourself. My friend and I will be leaving first." I said, saying hello to Teacher Akashi and preparing to leave.
"Are you avoiding me? Or are you really speaking from the heart?" Lagude got up from the bed and shouted at me , "Qiqi, I know we have only known each other for a short time, but I believe that I understand you, even better than you do. Those words just now are not what you would normally say, so——"
"So what?" My heart suddenly panicked, realizing that what Lagude was going to say next might be more difficult for me to handle than any of his previous nonsensical confessions, so I shouted, "What I just said is what I really think, Lagude, you are really annoying and I hate you, so please don't come to me again."
After the roar, the entire medical room fell into silence.
Akashi and the others stood aside silently, looking at Lagude and me, with gloomy expressions on their faces.
And Lagude, after being silent for a long time, suddenly smiled. That smile, although not as flourishing and gorgeous as a hundred flowers in full bloom, was as clear and elegant as bamboo after rain. He looked at me and smiled so lightly, the smile spread from the corners of his mouth to the bottom of his eyes, full and almost overflowing.
But the smile was not intense, just so faint, so faint that it didn’t dazzle me, but I couldn’t look away.
I could hear my own heartbeat, which was gradually speeding up as he laughed.
A very bad premonition welled up in my heart.
I knew I had to leave quickly.
"Qiqi, you can hear your heartbeat." Lagude raised his eyes slightly, looked at me with such a happy expression, and said, "Your heart is in turmoil because of me!"
He said the last sentence with such confidence, as if as soon as he said it, it would be the truth.
How is that possible! I opened my mouth, wanting to refute firmly, but found that I couldn't say a word.
I looked at him smiling at me smugly and happily like a child, but found that I was powerless to stop him from saying more terrible words.
"I knew it. Qiqi must like me too, because I like Qiqi so much." He spoke, returning to his nonsensical tone as before. The difference was that this time, all his words were filled with a slightly upturned feeling of happiness. "Don't people say that love should be mutual? It doesn't make sense that I love you so much but you have no feelings for me at all. What's more, the girls in school all said that I look no worse than that Kawakami Fuuhotake, so naturally I should be a popular guy."
"But I'm not as greedy as Kawakami Fuuhozhu. I'll be happy as long as Qiqi is the only one who is obsessed with me. Qiqi, are you obsessed with me now?"
All the inexplicable ambiguity and powerlessness that I had felt before suddenly disappeared in the midst of this guy's rambling words.
I looked at the guy in front of me who was getting a little carried away with pride, and was about to stop him, but I saw that Mr. Akashi was covering Kawakami Fuuhotake's mouth tightly to stop him from speaking, and he approached with a gossipy look on his face: "Since you are so affectionate, why don't you just be together?"
“Together!”
“Together!”
“Together!”
Then, the members of the Human Research Institute began to join in the booing, with the exception of Kawakami Fuuhotake, who was unable to express his opinion in time because his mouth was covered. This guy was busy using his beautiful eyes to constantly scan Lagude.
I looked helplessly at the group of excited guys around me: Excuse me, are they really here to help me?
"Qiqi, look, us being together is what everyone wants, there is no reason for you to reject me again!" said Lagood.
"Lagude, there's no way we can do it." I really had no choice but to shout to drown out the noise of everyone else.
The surroundings fell into silence again.
"Ragoud, we can't be together." I told him again in a firm tone.
"Why? If it's because of your health, then I don't mind-- "
"No, no." I shook my head, interrupting Lagood's subsequent confession, realizing that if I didn't firmly and clearly reject this guy, the ambiguous misunderstanding between him and me would probably become deeper and deeper, which would not be a good thing for either of us.
"Lagude, I can't accept you because I don't like you. I like someone else, and I have liked him for a long time before you appeared, and I plan to like him forever now and in the future."
"So Lagood, stop making trouble. There is no way I can accept you. Please - don't bother me again in the future. Your appearance has caused me a lot of trouble and trouble, and I really hate it." I gritted my teeth and said the last few words.
Although it's a bit cruel, if I don't do this, this guy may not give up, but at that time, it will only cause him more embarrassment and harm.
If he really liked me, I couldn't treat him like this.
Being cruel is also a way to be good to him, right?
