Chapter 6 I Just Want to Be with You 1
The night is like water and the stars are shining.
The blazing white light illuminated the entire room.
I was busy in the kitchen wearing a pink "Cartoon Minnie" apron, waving a spatula and having a lot of fun.
The only obstacle was the beautiful boy who was leaning against the cupboard and gazing at me with a smile.
After Min Hyuk and I came back from the orphanage, I immediately called Sang Mi and told her the good news that Min Hyuk had accepted her as his assistant manager. Sang Mi was very happy and sincerely thanked Min Hyuk over the phone. Min Hyuk took the opportunity to ask me to cook dinner for him as an extra reward for helping Sang Mi.
"Brother Min Hyuk, can you please go out and wait for your aunt to stay with you?"
I turned my head to look at Brother Minhe and pleaded with him in a helpless tone, hoping that he would leave the kitchen as soon as possible.
It’s so annoying!
What on earth was Min Hyuk thinking? Was there something wrong with his brain? The kitchen was filled with heavy fumes and water stains. Many people would try to hide and dodge, but he stood here leisurely, willing to be "polluted" by the fumes.
"Girl, I just like to see you busy, isn't that okay?"
"Okay! But..." I put down the spatula, walked to Min Hyuk, raised my eyebrows and said, "Please remember that you are a popular star. You are a very beautiful scenery wherever you stand! Even though you don't say anything or do anything, I still feel awkward and my back is chilled. Min Hyuk, please, get out quickly."
He still looked free and casual, as if he didn't hear what I said at all, but the smile in his eyes and at the corners of his lips became softer and more charming.
"Min Hyuk, what do you want to..."
"Girl, don't chase me away, I'll be sad." He suddenly raised his hand and pulled me into his arms, almost putting all his weight on my thin shoulders, and said softly, "Qianqian, we have been apart for so long, it's rare for us to get together, I will cherish every minute and every second I spend with you, understand?"
Understand? I don’t understand!
I sighed, feeling a desire to beat up Brother Bian Minhe. Haven't I been with him all day? Besides, I just asked him to leave temporarily and not disturb me while I was cooking, okay? What's more, I had no intention of leaving at all, so did he have to hold me tightly as if we were parting forever?
"Brother Min Hyuk, I am thinking about you. I am worried that your stunning appearance will be tarnished by the fumes."
He shook his head slightly, smiled and said, "It's okay, I don't care."
" Okay, whatever you want."
I had no choice but to raise the white flag and surrender, just pretending that there was a stunningly beautiful puppet standing behind me. I ignored him, ignored him, didn't look at him, didn't glance at him, as if he was transparent.
result……
A handsome guy saw through my thoughts and walked around the kitchen on purpose, touching the plates and chopsticks and stealing a few bites of food. This made me so furious that I threw a string of "sanitary balls" at him and almost stepped on him twice.
"Min Hyuk hyung!"
"Yes!" He smiled disapprovingly, his enchanting and beautiful eyes gleaming with glass-like light, "Miss Qianqian, what can I do for you?"
Me, I might as well just bang my head against the wall and die!
I was so angry at first, but when I saw Min Hyuk's beautiful eyes, I couldn't be angry with him anymore. Look, this is the unique charm of the popular idol Choi Min Hyuk!
I knew I couldn't defeat him, so I had to ask my aunt for help.
"Aunt! Brother Min Hyuk is always causing trouble, please drag him away quickly."
Hehe, as soon as these words were spoken, they took effect immediately.
Min Hyuk's smile froze instantly. He shook his head helplessly. His stunningly handsome face looked a little bitter. He raised his eyes and looked at me meaningfully.
For some reason, my heart tightened and I felt an indescribable sense of guilt.
I know Min Hyuk. The person he respects and loves the most is his adoptive mother, Aunt. Since he was a child, Min Hyuk has always been a good and obedient son, and has never disobeyed Aunt's orders.
At this time, my aunt walked into the kitchen, looked at the two of us, and said with a scolding smile: "You two brothers and sisters are so old, but you are still making noise in the kitchen like children. It's really... Minhe, come out, your mother has something to talk to you."
"good."
Min Hyuk smiled and nodded, without even looking at me, he followed my aunt out of the kitchen.
I worked hard to cook a lot of dishes, all of which were Minhe's favorite dishes. Of course, this was also my aunt's instruction.
Every time Minhe went out to work, he would not be able to come home for at least one or two months. After my aunt joined the Yao Jewelry Group, she rarely had free time and was always working overtime... As for me, I was forced to study at Dijing College on the island, where I lived as a boarder and spent most of my time at school.
Thinking about it this way, the days when our family of three get together are too few and far between. In the past, we could see each other almost every day, but now seeing each other has become an unattainable luxury. No wonder Min Hyuk has an opinion.
After dinner, my aunt agreed to play "card game" with me and Minhe for the first time. This was the most popular and interesting puzzle game when we were young.
"No! Min Hyuk is cheating!" I pouted and glared at Min Hyuk angrily. "Once the cards are out of your hands, you can't regret taking them back. Min Hyuk did it on purpose. He knew I had that card, so..."
"Haha!" Brother Minhe suddenly laughed triumphantly, "As your mother can attest, Qianqian said it herself. Since the card I want is with Qianqian, hehe... well, I will wait patiently, not afraid that you won't play that card."
Ah! Damn it! I was fooled!
"Brother Min Hyuk! Humph, I will never let you succeed, you just..."
C I was just about to adjust my "tactics" and consider how to deal with Brother Minhe, when the crisp ringing of a cell phone rang in the living room, interrupting my thoughts.
"Wait a moment! I'm going to answer a phone call first and continue the 'battle' when I come back!"
I put down the cards in my hand, ran to the windowsill, and grabbed my ringing cell phone.
"Hello!"
A deep and familiar voice came from the other end of the line: "Yao Qianqian, it's me."
Huh? Luo Zihan!
The call was actually from Luo Zihan!
My body stiffened slightly, and my heartbeat quickened. "What's wrong? What happened?"
"Come back to Dijing College with me tonight for tutoring. I'll be outside your house and will be out in ten minutes."
Wha…what?
Did I hear correctly? He, he asked me to go to school tonight for tutoring? How is that possible? Today is Saturday, a statutory holiday, not the day we agreed to tutor.
"Well, that..." I frowned slightly and asked tentatively, "Can I not go?"
Luo Zihan seemed to have expected me to say this. After a brief silence, he said calmly, "If you refuse, don't come to Platinum Hall to let me tutor you in the future."
Huh? Isn't this a naked threat?
"Why? Why do you have to go back to school?"
I held the phone tightly and couldn't help but scream. A warm hand patted my shoulder, giving me comfort and support. I turned my head and saw Minhe's gentle and smiling face.
Luo Zihan did not tell me the reason. He remained indifferent and distant as usual, and said word by word: "From now on, I will wait for you for ten minutes. After ten minutes, I will leave. It's up to you to make your own choice."
Then, he resolutely hung up the phone. I couldn't hear anything, as if a thick dark cloud suddenly pressed down from above my head, making it difficult for me to breathe.
"Qianqian, what happened?"
My aunt heard my shouting and gave me a concerned and worried look. Especially Brother Minhe, who was standing beside me and could sense my depression and helplessness, raised his hand to rub my hair and hugged me lovingly.
"Oh, no, nothing..."
I leaned in Minheuk's arms, my brain working rapidly.
what to do?
If I tell him the truth, Brother Minhe will definitely stop me from going back to school. Most importantly, I don't understand why Luo Zihan does this! Why does he force me to go to Platinum Hall for tutoring on my day off?
"Qianqian, I heard you say on the phone that you seemed to be going back to school, right..." My aunt also stood up and walked over, looking at me with a little confusion, and said earnestly, "Qianqian, you may still be rejecting Dijing College, but it is indeed a very good school. If you have an emergency, just go back and don't worry about your family."
I looked at my aunt and Brother Minhe pitifully. I really wished I could stay with them a little longer, but... Luo Zihan's orders were absolute. I could even hear from the phone that Luo Zihan was not in a good mood.
If I continue to fight against Luo Zihan, he will definitely not help me with my homework according to his decisive style of "keeping his word". In one month, I will take the re-examination test of Dijing College. Now is the most critical period, I can't fail!
There is no other choice but to do this.
"Aunt, Min Hyuk, I'm sorry... Actually, I joined the school comics club, and everyone was rushing to draw the manuscript. Originally, I didn't have to intervene, but the situation changed. A senior suddenly fell ill, and I had to go back to help."
"Oh, I see..." My aunt smiled and nodded, encouraging me, "Qianqian, creating comics is your dream. Go do what you like. I support you!"
"Well, thank you, auntie!"
I looked at my aunt gratefully and breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Min Hyuk's reaction made me feel a little distressed and sad. He didn't speak, but just looked at me silently, his handsome face covered with a layer of pale and bleak color.
After a long time, he asked softly, "Do we have to go back to school?"
"Yes, it is."
I didn't dare look into Min Hyuk's eyes, for fear that he would find out that I was lying, and I was even more afraid to face his almost resentful gaze.
Min Hyuk sighed quietly, raised his hand to hold my shoulders, and said calmly: "Ah, that can't be helped... Grab your things, I'll take you to school."
"No, no need!" I waved my hands and tried desperately to find an excuse. "Well, there are many students in our school who don't go home on weekends. If they see a big star like you, Min Hyuk, there might be chaos again. Don't worry, there happens to be a bus to Dijing College near our house. I always take the bus there."
Brother Minhe frowned slightly, looked at me and said, "It's too late now. How can you, a girl, ..."
"It's okay! It's only a little after seven, it's not late."
I walked away from Brother Minhe and ran to my room, packing my things in a hurry. Of course, there were still many buses, and I could go back to school at any time. The problem was that the overbearing Master Luo... He was still waiting for me outside, and he only gave me ten minutes to prepare!
"Aunt, Min Hyuk, I'm leaving now."
My aunt held my hand and said kindly, "Be careful on the road. Call home when you get to school."
"Okay, sure!"
I ran to the entrance, and as soon as I put my hand on the door handle, my body suddenly fell into a warm and familiar embrace.
"Min, Min Hyuk..."
I turned my head blankly and looked at the handsome boy who was hugging me tightly from behind. My heart suddenly felt sour and my eyes slowly turned red.
"Silly girl, I have to leave again tomorrow night, and it may be a long time before I can see you again."
I sniffed, smiled through my tears and said, "Don't worry, I will call you every day."
"You just know how to put me off!" Min Hyuk untied his hands, tapped my forehead lovingly, and said with a scolding smile, "Come on, I'll take you to the bus stop."
"no!"
I immediately made an "opposition" gesture. I don't need to explain the reason, Min Hyuk should also understand. He sent me to the bus stop? Oh my god, there were people coming and going on the street, and the big screen was continuously playing the advertisements endorsed by Min Hyuk. If he appeared on the street in person, it would be even more terrifying than the sensation caused by him sending me to Dijing College!
Finally, after my aunt's persuasion, Min Hyuk had to give up the idea of sending me off.
I ran out of the house in a slightly embarrassed manner and saw the luxurious silver car at a glance. At this time, the driver pushed open the door, walked slowly in front of me, and saluted me respectfully.
"Miss Qianqian, please get in the car. My young master is waiting for you."
Under the cover of night, the silver car sped away.
I was sitting in the car, blinking my eyes, and turned my head to look at Luo Zihan who was resting with his eyes closed.
He was so weird! He was the one who forced me to leave home and go back to school with him, but after I got in the car, he didn't say a word and didn't even look at me. He completely treated me as a invisible person!
what is this!
I glared at him angrily, cleared my throat and said, "Um, Luo Zihan, you..."
"Qianqian!" Luo Zihan interrupted me calmly and said in a deep voice, "Let's go back to the Platinum Hall and talk in detail, okay?"
Of course I felt reluctant, but all the questions in my heart had to be answered by Luo Zihan. If he refused to speak, what could I do? I could only nod angrily and helplessly.
The car was driving on the road, mottled light and shadows passed through the window, faintly reflecting Luo Zihan's expression.
He looked a little tired and a little indifferent, his eyebrows were quietly furrowed, his eyes were slightly closed, and his long, curled eyelashes were neatly covering his eyelids. His dark brown hair fell from his forehead, casting a series of dim silhouettes on his cold and beautiful face.
I secretly glanced at Luo ZiHan again and again, and always felt that the atmosphere in the car was very depressing and uncomfortable, as if there was a huge cyclone of cold air surrounding us, cold and bleak.
The car drove into Dijing College and stopped in front of the Platinum Hall.
Luo Zihan stood up, slowly opened his eyes, grabbed my hand without saying a word, pulled me out of the car, and ran straight to the sixth floor of the Platinum Hall.
Sixth floor?
Something is wrong. The study is not on this floor, and... if I remember correctly, the sixth floor of Platinum Hall should be the bedrooms of the young masters, their most private place.
Although I often go in and out of the Platinum Hall, the place I am most familiar with is always the study, and I have never been to the sixth floor.
Luo Zihan remained silent, holding my hand tightly, and walked all the way to his door. Then, he gently let me go, pushed the door open, and walked in first.
I was a little puzzled, frowned and looked at him, and asked puzzledly: "Luo Zihan, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing, come in."
Luo Zihan took off his glasses, looked up at me, his thin lips were tightly bound, with a hint of coldness visible.
"But... Qianqian, we need to talk."
Talk? About what?
I sat next to Luo Zihan, staring at his pair of bright eyes like obsidian, and couldn't help feeling a little dazed. Luo Zihan, wearing glasses, always gave people a sense of wisdom, tranquility and alienation. After taking off his glasses, he seemed to have added a bit of softness, but the arrogance and domineering in his bones were still clearly visible.
