Chapter 13.2 - Green Plums and Hobby-horse {childhood sweethearts} (2/2)

“No, I’m angry at myself.” Ruan Wen Yu, because of his age, didn’t play with Lou Yao Yao and their group, but had a different circle of friends. However, because his temper was good, Lou Yao Yao often visited his bar and she especially liked chatting with him.

Ruan Wen Yu started to give her a glass of wine with very low alcohol content. Suddenly he stopped, thought for a moment, then changed the glass of wine and pushed the new glass in front of her. “Try it. It’s a new blend.”

Lou Yao Yao obeyed his words and sipped. The wine was light and didn’t taste of alcohol. She drank the rest before pushing the glass towards him for a refill.

“Why are you angry at yourself?” Ruan Wen Yu poured her another glass.

“I’m just thinking that I’m so foolish.”

“You really are a little foolish.” Defying Lou Yao Yao’s angry glower, Ruan Wen Yu smiled, and peacefully said, “A girl’s tears and her anger have the same effect.”

Lou Yao Yao rolled her eyes at him.

“For a guy who cares about the girl, both emotions will cause him to feel sad. So an intelligent girl knows when to be angry and when not to be.”

After saying his piece, Ruan Wen Yu turned around, and continued mixing cocktails.

(Editor Note: For whom? Me, I hope! Not that I can drink it T-T)

As expected from the brother of that gossipy guy, Lou Yao Yao thought to herself. She pondered over his words; however, she just didn’t understand. The advice seemed to be very reasonable, but she couldn’t explain why.

For a period of time, Lou Yao Yao sank into her own thoughts, when suddenly, that side became very lively. She turned her body to have a look. She saw that Ruan Si Nan had arrived when she hadn’t noticed and he had brought along a petite female student. Lou Yao Yao thought the girl seemed familiar.

The group was causing a ruckus. Ruan Si Nan was protecting that female student and saying something.

Lou Yao Yao couldn’t help but think of when she had first started to hang out with this group of friends. Qin Zhi had also protected her like that. She was the only female student among them, and her position had been relatively unusual. To be able to make a group of male students accept an intruder, especially since she was very troublesome, Qin Zhi naturally had to have put in a lot of effort.

She hadn’t thought of it before, but now she was at a loss. Seeing them, she kept on thinking of how Qin Zhi had always taken the blame for her. How that group of male students would always indulge her, or scold her with anxious eyes.

However, not a single one of them forced her to turn herself in. They clearly knew what had actually happened, but they still chose to protect her.

They were her childhood friends. Despite however many wrongs she might commit, they were always willing to be her support.

But……..in her heart, they had been unimportant to her. Because of a single Chen Hao, she had gradually become alienated from them. Until subsequently, there was almost no contact. Now she was………….ashamed.

The more she thought about it, the worse she felt. Tears fell down, pitter-patter.

Dong Dong, who had just come out of the bathroom, saw this scene. He got scared and hurriedly rushed over to her, “Jie, how are you? Did Qin Zhi bully you?”

“Dong Dong, am I really annoying?”

Dong Dong tilted his head and thought a while. He solemnly nodded his head, “You really are very annoying.”

“Scram!” What she thought was one matter. What other people said was another matter. Lou Yao Yao used her foot to kick him. (Looked up Chinese insults and the closest would have been about mothers… so not appropriate. The one I have put in is the next closest. Don’t have to use it but I think it flows better and makes more sense)

“Hey, stop! Jie, you’re the one who asked. Can’t people speak the truth? Then why ask? Brothers, do you think Lou Yao Yao is very annoying?”

“Do you even need to ask this?”

“I haven’t seen a girl more annoying than her!”

“A girl? Saying that she’s a girl is too insulting towards females!”

Other than Qin Zhi, everyone stated similar opinions.

Okay, why did she even bother feeling ashamed? Get the hell out! Lou Yao Yao’s temper ignited. This group of scoundrels, would it hurt them if they didn’t speak the truth? Would they die?!

Quickly, the bar was in chaos. However, it was basically just Lou Yao Yao hitting while the others were hiding.

An intelligent female would know when to be angry. An intelligent male would know when to enrage a female.

FirePegasus: Maybe I should just change my posting time to Tuesday. Although I said I was going to post on Monday, I seem to never actually do so ???? Sorry.
