Chapter 5: Angels and Demons, Just a Thought Away 2
Although I was confused, I didn't think much about it and walked in. There was nothing inside except a coffee table, sofa, bookcase, desk, and chairs, but I didn't see the principal.
At this moment, a black chair turned around cleverly, and the principal was sitting on it.
"Do you know what a red four-leaf clover represents?"
Although I had my own understanding of the meaning, I had no idea what he meant, so I just looked at him in confusion and didn't say anything.
"Bloody blessing."
What? I was a little surprised to hear the principal say that, but I quickly regained my composure.
"You originally had less than a year to live, but you actually became an angel. I never thought that!"
"What do you mean?" I looked at him and frowned.
My hunch was indeed correct, this principal is not simple at all.
"Living in hell, you can clearly see the death date of other people. But now, not only do you not have a death date, but you also have a halo that everyone envies." The principal's words surprised me even more. Is he a person from hell, and also a devil? Or...
I took a step back and looked at him warily.
"You are just alert now, isn't it too late?" Just as the principal finished speaking, something like an ancient vine stretched out from all directions. Although I could avoid one, I couldn't avoid dozens. Finally, they entangled my hands and feet and lifted me into the air.
I frowned and looked at him hostilely.
"Don't worry, I don't want your angel heart, I just want you to leave An Lengxi."
"What? Do you have a grudge against An Lengxi?" I suddenly felt as if my solid barriers had been broken, and I felt helpless and panicked.
At this time, the principal actually showed a very evil smile and said, "It seems that you care more about An Lengxi than your own safety."
"Who are you? What is your purpose?" I looked at him with disgust, frowning, and my heart was full of worry.
"None of this is important. As for the relationship between An Lengxi and I, you don't need to know for the time being." The principal avoided answering, which made me feel that things were not that simple.
"You..." I looked at him steadily, with an unprecedented ferocity in my eyes.
"Can you have eyes like this if you have an angel's heart?" The principal looked at me with a teasing tone in his voice.
"I'm not vicious, but I won't let my kindness run rampant." I moved my bound hands vigorously, trying to break free.
But these ancient vines seemed to have life. As soon as I moved, they wrapped around me tighter. After a while, I felt severe pain in my arms.
I looked at the person opposite me angrily.
"Don't look at me like that, it's useless. When I was young, I also liked a human girl, but unfortunately she betrayed me later, so I will never let An Lengxi make the same mistake again!" When the principal said this, a look of resentment appeared on his face.
I find it a little confusing. Just because he was betrayed before, does it mean that I will definitely betray An Lengxi?
"Humans are really hard to understand." He became more and more agitated, and suddenly reached out and grabbed my neck. "They are so innocent, but they can become cold and heartless!"
I felt it was difficult to breathe and I was almost suffocating. I could only close my eyes helplessly with a painful expression on my face.
After a while, the restraint around his neck seemed to loosen.
"Why did it change?" I don't know if he was asking me or asking himself.
"Sometimes, it is very easy for a person to change." Some people are forced to change, some are forced by life, many situations can make people change, in fact, I have changed too.
"Really? Humans are so hard to understand..." My heart was touched when I heard him say that.
Is it hard to understand? Aren’t you the same? I don’t know what An Lengxi is thinking.
"Why do you treat me like this? Tell me, why?" I asked slowly.
"Because I don't want to see An Lengxi suffer the same harm." His tone left no room for doubt.
"I will never hurt An Lengxi. Maybe I don't fully understand the meaning of love. However, as long as it is for An Lengxi, I am willing to give up everything, even giving up my identity as an angel." After saying this, I suddenly felt hot in my chest and my arms as well. The vines wrapped around my body instantly turned into ashes.
The principal didn't say anything, just stared at me blankly.
"If you dare to stop me, angels and demons are just a thought away." I said with a faint smile, but my tone was very firm.
"in a moment?"
"Even though everything didn't end as expected in the end, I am willing to bear it." After I said that, I turned and walked towards the door. In fact, for me, whether I can go to heaven is not a very important matter at all.
"Bei Yingning..." The principal called me, and he didn't speak until I turned around and looked at him, "Do you think you can be happy in the end? Tell me, what are your feelings for An Lengxi?"
"When I'm with him, I'll feel happy no matter where I am. On the contrary, even if I could become an angel and live in heaven, I wouldn't be happy." When I said this, my heart felt like it was pricked by a needle and it hurt a little.
I can't imagine, nor do I want to face the outcome after these one hundred days.
"I don't care what your relationship with An Lengxi is. I just want to tell you that my feelings for him will never change." After saying this, I left without looking back.
I was walking aimlessly on the campus until a running figure appeared in front of me.
That figure seems familiar, An Lengxi?
By the way, the basketball game was still going on and I left in the middle.
I walked towards him quickly, but he slowed down. He looked very tired, sweating profusely, holding his waist and breathing heavily. His eyes told me that I would not feel good when he caught his breath.
Sure enough, he looked at me for a while and asked angrily, "Are you kidding me? You can't find your people in the middle of the field."
"I'm sorry..." I looked at his expression and the sweat on his face, feeling apologetic. "How was the game?"
"Because you were not here, I was distracted and didn't win." An Lengxi turned his head and seemed a little angry, but that was right. He should feel embarrassed for losing to Shang Yi. Was it all my fault? In fact, I didn't want this to happen.
At this time, An Lengxi turned around again, and seeing that I looked like I was about to cry, she immediately said, "Well, although I didn't win, I didn't lose either."
"Really?" I raised my head in confusion and asked timidly.
An Lengxi looked at me, and for some reason he was distracted. I couldn't wait for an answer, so I could only continue to look at him in confusion. He finally came back to his senses, but he seemed to be hiding something, and his eyes looked away.
"Really, really..." An Lengxi's repeated words always sounded a bit perfunctory, but I didn't mind.
He turned and left quickly, and I hurried to follow him, but looking at his back, I couldn't help but feel a little worried. I'm not sure what I should do in the future, and I'm not sure what the principal thinks, but I think, at least I have to cheer up a little and do my best to protect An Lengxi.
"Yingning, you look depressed. What happened? Where did you go just now? If you cheer for me, I will definitely win." As soon as I returned to the classroom, I saw Shang Yi standing at the door.
"ah--"
As always, wherever Shang Yi is, there will always be crowds of people and such screams can always be heard.
Seeing Shang Yi putting his arm around my shoulders, An Lengxi's face didn't look very good. I wondered if he was jealous, so I felt a little secretly happy in my heart.
"Although I didn't win, I will never give up on you!" Then, Shang Yi kissed me on the cheek. I didn't react for a moment and only felt that the surroundings were strangely quiet.
An Lengxi exudes cold air all over her body, as if she wants to freeze me, it's so cold...
I subconsciously wanted to avoid Shang Yi's overly intimate behavior, but Shang Yi didn't seem to have any intention of letting go. He didn't care about An Lengxi at all. He still put his arm around my waist and said, "Yingning, do you know? An Lengxi will never like you, and will never be with you, so you should choose me."
"Shang Yi, I don't need him to like me, I don't need him to be with me, I just hope to have memories worth cherishing."
I thought Shang Yi would be sad after hearing what I said, but he didn't have any obvious change in expression. Instead, he said to me very seriously, "Really?" There was a faint smile on his face, and there was an elusive feeling.
I don’t know how to answer. If An Lengxi could like me, I would definitely be happier and more blessed.
"None of your business! If you do anything clumsy again, I will really kill you!" An Lengxi walked forward a few steps, grabbed Shang Yi's collar, looked at him very coldly, and then glanced at me with an extremely cold gaze.
Is it because I didn’t answer firmly at the end? But I really don’t know if I have the courage to say it a second time.
"Is this possessiveness, jealousy, or do you really like her?" Shang Yi's words became sharper and sharper, as if he was forcing An Lengxi step by step, and these words seemed to have hit An Lengxi's wounds, and he lowered his head for a moment.
"You should understand..." An Lengxi said to Shang Yi. Although I didn't understand what he meant, I didn't feel a glimmer of hope.
What kind of existence am I to An Lengxi? This answer would scare me no matter when I hear it, so I would rather not ask.
"I don't understand!" Shang Yi seemed unwilling to cooperate and denied it firmly.
"You..." An Lengxi was choked.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, Yingning, let's go out and play some other day!" Shang Yi turned his head and looked at me. Because of the height difference, he leaned down to my ear and whispered, "I can tell you a lot of secrets about An Lengxi."
"This..." Although this is really a big temptation for me, but...
"Don't think too much. I just want to give you some different memories. It's very simple. I don't think the young master should be so selfish." Shang Yi said with a sinister smile and glanced at An Lengxi.
An Lengxi said to Shang Yi, "Of course I won't argue with you. Let's go play together. You can also bring your friends along."
"Young Master, you should run far away when you see a woman. Aren't you afraid that they will pester you?"
"You should pay more attention to yourself. If you go to a crowded place, can you get away safely?"
The two of them exchanged sharp words, and the situation was explosive.
"Your worries are unnecessary." Shang Yi continued with a sinister smile. When he turned and left, he looked back at me again, "Yingning, I am looking forward to that day."
I rolled my eyes at him in response.
After school, Luo Yun, Bai Shanshan and I gathered together at the school gate.
"Ah?" The two people's screams broke through the sky, attracting the attention of everyone around them.
I pulled them and asked them to stay calm, but they had no intention of calming down and continued to jump and dance around me.
"I didn't expect to be able to go out and play with Shang Yi, An Lengxi and others. Can I bring a camera?" Bai Shanshan said with an intoxicated look on her face, completely ignoring the gazes of the people around her.
Alas, An Lengxi said that I could bring friends, but I only have these two friends around me, which always makes me feel a little headache. But there is no way, almost all the girls in the school will go crazy when they hear this, I should learn to be considerate.
"Then let's meet at my house tomorrow, okay?"
"Okay." Luo Yun responded, then looked at Bai Shanshan, and then the two of them turned around tacitly, secretly, and no one knew what they were discussing.
After a while, the two finally turned around to face me again, and Bai Shanshan said, "Yingning, to thank you, we decided to give you a gift."
"What?" I narrowed my eyes. Although I knew they meant no harm, the expressions on their faces made my hair stand on end.
"See you tomorrow!" They didn't answer my question, but just waved at me and turned away.
What? You whet people's appetite without giving them an answer. You are really unfriendly.
