Chapter 6: Being "exposed" 4
At this moment, I have automatically blocked out the noise and sharp gazes around me, and the only thing in my sight is Zeng Chen standing on the stage.
It turns out that the "big devil" that has always made me curious is right next to me.
No wonder the note of encouragement written by the "big devil" when he sent me a piano last time looked familiar. It turned out to be written by Zeng Chen. How could it not look familiar to me?
In fact, looking back, Zeng Chen had many flaws, but I just didn't find them carefully. At this moment, I feel that I am both happy and unfortunate.
Fortunately, the person who has always encouraged, supported and helped me is someone I see every day; unfortunately, I only bring one problem after another to the people around me.
"You are all Yuan Wan's friends. How do you prove that you didn't collude to deceive us?" Mi Lu's sharp question made Zeng Chen frown, and he looked at her coldly.
"There is no need to prove what has not been done."
His response really didn't mean anything, but the helpers that Mi Lu found were very powerful. They deliberately made loud noises in the crowd, as if they were talking to me.
"Mi Lu is so pitiful. Her biggest supporter suddenly went to support Yuan Wan, and she even lost to Yuan Wan in the competition a few days ago. Sigh..."
"Although it may seem a bit mean for Mi Lu to expose Yuan Wan in front of so many people, I think she was forced into a desperate situation by Yuan Wan, so she chose to use self-destructive methods to retaliate against others."
"Anyway, I stand on Mi Lu's side this time. Yuan Wan, don't think we can trust her just because she casually explains 'the innocent are innocent' like last time!"
…
Facing everyone's accusatory gazes, my heart suddenly became confused. From the beginning of the live broadcast to now, I had never thought that things would come to this point. What should I do now?
"Mi Lu is so shameless! Not only did she make trouble in school, she also live-broadcasted the entire process of so-called exposing you on 'Lime TV'. You are on the headlines of the forum again!"
Guan Qiao anxiously handed the phone to me. I just glanced at it and all I saw were insults directed at me .
"Mi Lu has received a lot of sympathy votes, and now everyone in the forum is scolding the four of us." Lin Tong sighed.
"I'm sorry for getting you into trouble." When I heard the news that they were affected, my mood instantly fell to the bottom.
If Mi Lu had only slandered me today, I think I might be angry but not sad. However, I didn't expect that my friends also had to endure bad words because of me.
"What are you talking about!" Guan Qiao pouted and said unhappily, "Since we are friends, we should face any difficulties together!"
"I don't want to listen to Mi Lu anymore." I covered my ears and turned around to leave the crowd.
My heart is really confused right now, but my mind is blank, as if an invisible hand is strangling my throat and I can't breathe.
"We'll accompany you..." Lin Tong pulled my wrist.
I gently pushed his hand away: "No, let me be alone for a while."
Mi Lu, is this the ending you wanted? I was like a rat crossing the street, bearing countless curses and leaving sadly.
The moment I left school, I felt that the hands that had been strangling my throat finally loosened a little, at least giving me a chance to catch my breath.
"Where are you going?" Just as I lowered my head, staring at my toes and walking forward, Zeng Chen's voice came from behind me.
I stopped but didn't look back: "Go home."
"Since you've chosen to escape, why not escape to an interesting place?" Zeng Chen took my hand, and a warm force came from his palm, "Come with me."
I didn't even have the mood to resist. I just got into a taxi with him. After going around in circles, the taxi finally stopped.
"Playground?" I widened my eyes.
Ever since Xiao Nuo fell ill, I have never been to such a place again. I don’t have the time and I don’t have the mood.
After Zeng Chen bought the tickets, he took me to the waiting area for the roller coaster.
"Do you dare to come with me to play?" Zeng Chen pointed to the roller coaster that was speeding around the track. The screams of tourists could be heard from time to time on the silver track, with ups and downs that made people's hearts hang in the air.
I shook my head. Although this is my favorite project, I have no desire to play it at all now.
The roller coaster returned to the starting point, and it was our turn. Zeng Chen didn't care whether I was willing or not, and just pulled me up.
"Just think of it as playing with me!" Zeng Chen said, considerately fastening my seat belt for me.
I had no choice but to compromise and hold on to the safety bar in front of me and said, "Okay."
The car started slowly. I didn't close my eyes. It slowly climbed onto the track. The scenery of the entire city was in full view, and my mood was .
" Are you scared?" Zeng Chen turned his head and asked loudly.
I saw that he was holding the safety bar tighter than I was. His lips were pale and his face was not looking good.
I shook my head and gave him a faint smile.
But at this moment, the car reached the top, and in an instant, a powerful force pulled me down, and I couldn't help screaming.
A strong sense of weightlessness enveloped me. Several times I felt like I was about to be thrown out, but the safety belt around my waist was tightening. The wind blew past my ears, and my skin felt like it was being cut by ice blades. I screamed without reservation . Compared to fear, I felt that the sound at this moment was more like a catharsis of my heart.
“Ahhhh!”
The louder I screamed, the more relaxed I felt.
"Let's play it again, do you dare?" After one round, Zeng Chen's face turned pale, but he still looked at me provocatively.
"Who's afraid of who?"
I readily agreed and repeated the rapid slope rush and 360-degree rotation experience again.
I closed my eyes and stopped screaming, enjoying the thrill brought by speed and weightlessness. My mood cleared up after the gloomy clouds.
"I don't want to play anymore. I'm tired." When I returned to the starting point for the fifth time, I waved my hand and got off the car panting.
"Are you feeling better?" Zeng Chen followed me, his voice a little hoarse.
"Yeah, much better."
He breathed a sigh of relief and sat beside me, like a wilted grass.
"What's wrong with you?" I looked at him worriedly.
Zeng Chen leaned back in his chair and waved his hand weakly at me: "I'm actually afraid of heights."
"Ah?" I widened my eyes in surprise, but seeing his dying appearance, I couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Finally smiled." Zeng Chen pursed his lips and forced a smile with great effort.
He was obviously afraid of heights, but in order to help me vent my emotions, he insisted on accompanying me to ride the roller coaster. Looking at his pale face, I felt a little distressed, but at the same time, my heart was warmed by him.
"Zeng Chen, thank you." I turned my head to face him, just in time to meet his star-like bright eyes, "You have helped me so much all along."
"Nothing to thank me for." Zeng Chen avoided my gaze a little embarrassedly, and turned his side face to me, "I noticed Guan Qiao's voice last time, but I didn't expect Mi Lu to do the same... If I was more cautious and told you my identity in advance, maybe we could avoid Mi Lu's false accusation."
I shook my head and said, "What does this have to do with you? It's obviously Mi Lu who is too despicable!"
"Even though we all support you so much, you should support yourself even more." Zeng Chen looked at me deeply and said, "No matter what, we will get through this difficult time with you."
At this moment, our eyes met, and under the warm sunshine, his brown pupils shone with beautiful luster like gems.
