Chapter 54 (2/2)
”What are you stealing for?” Aunt Mei stood right in front, rolling up her sleeves ”Chin up and let's talk Don't be afraid I won't really beat you to death Atto you”
Madam Gu had not assimilated very well to life on this street Her education and values led her to not believe in beating people at the drop of a hat; they could send the thief to the police station without needing to get violent
Madaed hi in for?”
Xie Yu cah to say, ”Just for this weekend I didn't have anything to do, anyway”
”Sure” Dalei generously accepted
They chatted a while longer
Xie Yu stood in the bend of the stairwell He Zhao had slipped out of class at so, wrapped his ar forward to ask, ”What are you doing?”
Zhou Dalei was about to hang up when he heard that on the other end of the line
The voice was very low and very close, as if right next to Boss Xie's ear The tone lilted at the end, sounding nothing but flirtatious to his ears
The voice also sounded familiar
Zhou Dalei was shocked ”Who was that? So sounded very inappropriate there!”
Xie Yu said, ”Yeah, you got me”
He Zhao, who had been called inappropriate out of nowhere, said, ”Ah?”
”Oh, you're that—I reave hiotten the experience of squatting in the police station and writing a reflection essay He felt that he had to buddy up to his boyfriend's friend, so he thought hard and finally caood reflection essay Brilliant style”
Xie Yu: ”……”
Zhou Dalei's freshly lit cigarette almost fell out of his mouth ”……”
”Who on earth is this?!” Zhou Dalei then thought through the words 'at the station' and how shameless this person was, then remembered ”Is it the… the handsome devil with the mask?”
He Zhao was very close to the receiver and Zhou Dalei was speaking loudly He answered shauy in the station”
He Zhao was a person as easy-going by nature and could chat with anyone whether he knew them or not Xie Yu couldn't bear to listen any et?”
Zhou Dalei actually did want to keep chatting with this guy ”Ah, Boss Xie, what a coincidence You're in the same school? Friends?”
Xie Yu paused, then said, ”Mm, friends”
Boyfriends, even
Zhou Dalei didn't think in that direction so Xie Yu didn't h they had to be on the do in school, Xie Yu had no intention of keeping his relationshi+p under wraps If Dalei really asked about them some day, he would probably ad up the phone, He Zhao asked, ”You're going back ho to round snake Godht that He Zhao would reh Aunt Mei was a little hot-teht businesswo and everyone packed up their things before trickling out of class Grades had not even been released yet but already people were happy or worried Liu Cunhao and the others stood in the classroooing”
One of He Zhao's ar on Xie Yu's shoulder In this position, he waved to Liu Cunhao ”Bye”
Liu Cunhao was no longer shocked by this scene They had already held hands in class in public and even had a dedicated CP thread on the school forus and He Zhao followed closely behind every step of the way
He picked up several sets of clothes, then turned around, about to pick up his phone to charge, but crashed headfirst into He Zhao instead ”Can you sit down somewhere quietly for a while?”
He Zhao said, ”Can't be quiet when I think that on't see each other for two days 48 hours 2880 minnutes 172800 seconds”
Xie Yu was only concerned with pushi+ng hiht, like how quick He Zhao's mental arithmetic was
”Sit down” Xie Yu pushed He Zhao down onto the bed, then, holding back his anger, patted He Zhao's head and said angrily, ”If you say soain, I'll punch you”
He Zhao: ”……”
Xie Yu didn't go straight to Black Water Street He went to the Zhong household first
Mada food and didn't even re to the door ”You're back? Why didn't you say so?”
Gu Xuelan asked hi about how the cafeteria food was, if he had gotten thinner, and how the one
Xie Yu picked up an apple froainst the kitchen doorway ”It went fine”
The word 'fine' was auous, who knehat he reallyto be second fro and Gu Xuelan didn't press theabout the last in the year ”Your deskets last place every time?”
Gu Xuelan finished, then added an 'Aiyoh'
Actually, Xie Yu sometimes felt the sainally intended to make two dishes, but now she cooked several more and was busy in the kitchen
Xie Yu sat on the sofa and waited for dinner He looked down at his phone and typed out in the search bar, character by character, what to do when boyfriend doesn't study
