Chapter 6: Love Shining Like a Gem 01
Due to the whole day's overload, and I didn't know what was wrong with me, I actually refused Duanmu Jichu's request to let me go home early, and took the initiative to stay and work overtime with him until 3 am. As a result, when I sat up from the bed the next day, I still felt dizzy and yawned from sleepiness.
"Rice cake girl, is your head made of rice cake? Do you want to stay and work overtime with me?"
"That's right. The boss hasn't left work yet. As a secretary, how can I leave work?"
"It will take me until the early morning to finish reading these documents, Nian Gao Pig. You will only cause me trouble if you stay. Get out now!"
"I do not go."
"Nian Gao girl, how dare you disobey my orders?"
"I won't leave. I won't listen. Anyway, I don't care. I want to stay here."
"Forget it, just stay there, but don't make any noise, or I'll make you pay..."
Finally, Duanmu Jichu said this in a fierce tone and never paid any attention to me again. But I saw again that the moment he lowered his head, a look as gentle as moonlight flashed in his eyes.
I was so immersed in the moonlight that I fell asleep sitting on the sofa in his office without feeling tired at all. Oh, now it seems that my head is made of rice cakes. Woohoo, staying up late is so tiring. I am not a monster with super physical strength like him, why should I show off? Woohoo...
"You silly girl, are you still not up? There are people waiting for you outside, hurry up and get up!"
Perhaps because I hadn't gotten up for a long time, my mother started knocking on the door and yelling. After yelling at me fiercely, her voice immediately turned into a baby voice, and she spoke to someone in a flattering manner: "Master, please wait a moment. If that damn girl doesn't get up, I will go in and kill her. It's damnable that you made a master like you wait so long. Also, I'm really sorry, our sofa has been sent out for repairs, and the teacups are all broken, otherwise I really should invite you to come in and sit down and have a cup of tea..."
Uh, mom, I'm not your biological child, am I? Even if I'm not your biological child, there's no need for you to be so different before and after, right? It's so embarrassing!
Moreover, what does it mean that the sofa was sent out for repair, and the teacup was broken? Have we ever had a sofa and a teacup in our home? I don’t know who said before that the sofa is just a decoration, it’s a waste of money, and the teacup will break one day after buying it, so it’s better not to buy it?
I put on my clothes with a frown on my face, washed up simply, and just as I walked out of the door, Le Ou hugged me tightly: "Xiao Ye, it's been so long since we met, I miss you so much. Xiao Ye, do you miss me?"
Well, we haven't seen each other for just one night...
"Le'ou, why are you here?" I was a little breathless in Le'ou's embrace, and hurriedly pushed him away to avoid being left dead on the street so early in the morning. "How did you know my home is here?"
"It's clearly written on Xiaoye's enrollment information." Leo was pushed away by me, but he wasn't angry. He stood beside me with his lips raised and smiled happily. His beautiful blue eyes were like two shining gems emitting charming light. "And I'm not the only one here to pick you up. Everyone is here."
Sure enough, when I looked up, I saw the dazzling twins and the stunningly beautiful Ximen standing on the street corner, as well as the small figure who was "kidnapped" by Duanmu Jimo and was desperately hiding behind him...
Bai Yuanyuan?
When I thought of this name, my heart sank suddenly and the smile on my face froze instantly, turning into a strange expression that seemed like I was neither crying nor laughing.
Then I couldn't help but think of that day in Duanmu Jichu's office, when she nodded heavily to me and admitted that she had betrayed me...
Actually, I asked her to do that. She was innocent. Even if she betrayed me, it was reasonable. I had nothing to be angry about. But I just couldn't convince myself. I thought, I really regarded her as my best friend...
"Nian Gao girl, what are you doing standing there?" Duanmu Jichu glared at me unhappily when he saw me taking so long to walk over. When he saw the dark circles under my eyes, he curled his lips and sneered sarcastically, "Oh? Are you afraid that others will see your dark circles? But you're overthinking it. You wouldn't be that beautiful even if you didn't have dark circles under your eyes."
Hey, what do you mean? Aren't my dark circles caused by staying up late with you? You have no conscience.
I glared back at him angrily. I don't know why, but my mood actually improved after he laughed at me.
Uh, do I really like being abused as Duanmu Jimo said?
Wuuuu, no!
"Now that you have paid the price for your stupid actions, there is one thing I thought I'd better tell you, so that I don't have to see your ugly face when I look at the documents in the future."
Duanmu Jichu raised his eyebrows arrogantly, and then said to Duanmu Jimo: "Jimo, don't you have something to say? About Bai Yuanyuan."
About Bai Yuanyuan? Is it about her betraying me and confessing me? I glanced at Duanmu Jichu, his expression was cold and indifferent. But he actually noticed the painful expression on my face when I occasionally mentioned Bai Yuanyuan last night.
He actually noticed me, when he was so busy...
Also, was it because of Duanmu Jimo that Bai Yuanyuan confessed me? Thinking carefully, Duanmu Jimo was indeed always by Bai Yuanyuan's side at that time. Was she threatened by Duanmu Jimo?
I remember that she seemed to be threatened by Duanmu Jimo frequently, and the reasons given each time were speechless. For example, "Master Jimo said that if I don't obey, he will kill Youyou." "If I don't go, Master Jimo will not give Youyou food."
"You can't blame me for this. These two girls are just too funny. Haha, I couldn't help but want to tease them."
Duanmu Jimo glanced at me, then looked down at Bai Yuanyuan who was huddled behind him, and suddenly burst into laughter. I don't know why, although he has the same face as Duanmu Jichu, with the same perfect and handsome features, his temperament in his gestures is completely different from Duanmu Jichu. Duanmu Jichu is like a high and mighty king, but he is like a fox butler who is afraid of chaos in the world.
Duanmu Jimu laughed for a while, dragged Bai Yuanyuan out from behind, and pushed her in front of me: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. In fact, it wasn't Yuangungun who confessed voluntarily. I picked up a stray cat from the roadside and forced her to say it. If you don't confess, I will throw the stray cat out from the roof. I just did such a small thing, but she was more funny and immediately cried and told everything. Haha, classmate Nian Gao, you are not even as good as a cat."
Yes, I am not even as good as a cat...
Although I was speechless , I was no longer angry. Knowing that Bai Yuanyuan did not confess me on purpose, I felt better for some reason, even though I was not even as good as a cat, hehe...
“Ye…Ye… ” Bai Yuanyuan stood in front of me, lowered her head and sniffed hard, tears dripping onto the ground, like a puppy that had made a mistake, so cute and pitiful, “Ye Ye, I’m… I’m sorry, I betrayed you, you can scold me, wuwuwu… You can scold me, wuwuwu… But don’t ignore me, I’m timid and have no sense of existence, from childhood to adulthood I only knew how to play with computers and small animals, I’ve never made friends, you are my first friend, I’m very happy… wuwuwu, I want to be friends with you for life, please don’t ignore me…”
"Silly girl, how could I ignore you?" Seeing her pitiful appearance, my heart softened completely, and I walked over and hugged her tightly, "I also want to be your friend for life. This is not your fault. It's the people who threatened you who are more despicable."
While I was comforting Bai Yuanyuan, I rolled my eyes at Duanmu Jimo: "Also, Yuanyuan, don't always believe what that bastard Duanmu Jimo says. You are always threatened by him."
Every time it’s either because of kittens or because of puppies, it really makes people speechless.
“But…but Master Ji Mo will really throw the cat downstairs…” Bai Yuanyuan raised her head and accused with tears in her eyes.
"Hey, am I just a bad guy who only does bad things in your mind?" Duanmu Jimu pulled Bai Yuanyuan away from my arms unhappily and hit her head hard.
"But, because I didn't go to chat with you, you were really hungry for several days." Bai Yuanyuan clenched her little fists, tears in her eyes.
"Idiot, I secretly fed it, otherwise how could it survive until today?" Duanmu Jimu curved his eyes proudly, put his honey-colored lips close to Bai Yuanyuan's ear, and blew a puff of air naughtily, "No matter what I say, you will believe it, classmate Yuanyuangun, you are actually obsessed with me, right?"
“Wuwuwu, Master Ji Mo, don’t always…always bully me!” Bai Yuanyuan jumped up immediately like a little mouse that had been electrocuted, and hid behind me with her hands covering her red face.
Duanmu Jimu didn't allow her to hide, and immediately chased after her and dragged her out from behind me: "Who made you so easy to bully? If I don't bully you for a day, my mouth and hands will itch. No, my whole body will itch! Hahaha!"
"Wuwuwu, Ye Ye, save me..."
Watching Duanmu Jimo and Bai Yuanyuan fighting, I don't know why, the scene is unusually harmonious and beautiful. Although Bai Yuanyuan always looks pitiful and is bullied by the fox-like Duanmu Jimo, I don't want to stop it at all, because, maybe, it's possible... these two people actually like each other, but they haven't realized it yet.
I laughed foolishly twice, raised my head, and saw Simon, who had been expressionless and silent, looking at me with a strange look. He moved his bright red lips and whispered three words to me:
"Peach Blossom Tribulation."
Eh? A love affair? Has the legendary Ximen Young Master's prophecy come true again?
Are you talking about me? Or Bai Yuanyuan and Duanmu Jimo?
I looked at him in confusion, but he turned his gaze away quietly as if nothing had happened, and gave me an unfathomable look, which made my heart race.
Peach blossom disaster?
Is he talking about the relationship between me, Duanmu Jichu and Le Ou?
What will happen?
