Chapter 59: Peculiar combination, Of circumstances (2/2)
”Wait, wait a moment, Xue Qing, what did you wanted to say? I didn't hear clearly!”
Just when I was about to walk out of the alleyway, my back was being forcibly shoved, with my footsteps unsteadily tripping forward, and just at that instance, I exerted out my best efforts onto turning around to look backwards!
I saw onto a snowy-white colored hair, coupled along with bloody red pupils.
Plus the status on the top of her head had turned blue-blackish in comparison with that set of red-whiteness, it turning indistinct to be gleaned due to it almost about to blend within the darkness at the background.
Saying that she liked me, but from her status, there wasn't any sort of pinkish color mixings at all, so that feelings of like wasn't referring to any sort of special feelings then.
But that deep bluish color that was so close to it being black, what sort of feelings was it exactly as well?
I haggardly fell back a couple of steps, and after knocking upon some sort of thing I then found back my balance, as I steadied myself while gazing intently towards inside of the alleyway, but the figure of Xue Qing wasn't around already.
Next time we see each other...........what will happen then?
What are you trying to tell me exactly..........Xue Qing..........
”Uuu, it hurts..........”
A sound resounded from behind me, which made me regain back to my senses as I shifted my attention back to right in front of me.
I've accidentally knocked onto a person just awhile ago, which was why I was able to retract onto my footsteps and not fall, but that person who was being bumped by me seemed to have been knocked down quite badly as well.
”Ah, my bad, I'm really sorry for bumping onto you..........”
I spun around, unveiling an apologetic smile as I stretched out my hands, about to pull the other party up from the ground.
Afterwards, my smile stiffened.
The other party upon lifting their head up and seeing my face thereafter, too had their entire body shuddering, as they became dumbstruck with their eyes largely gaping
Out of all the people that I could have bumped into, the person who was being knocked down by me was the kind that I'm most unable to deal with.......... the [Stalker (intermediary)] Lan Hua!
Eeeeeeehhh, I really want to run away...........
If you want me to explain on why I would be so disbarring onto Lan Hua-tongxue, it's without a doubt due to her gaze which was simply too appalling already...........that sort of gaze, which was just like wanting to see the entirety of myself from the outside to the inside, made my whole body raise up goosebumps...........
Mm? Gaze?
Wait, it can't be...........that Lan Hua was the person who had always been stalking me?
Coincidentally bumping upon Lan Hua-tongxue whose true personality was that of a stalker, near the entrance of Black Street? How could there be such a coincidental thing happening!
I dare to be certain, confirmed, as well as be definite! It's an absolute fact that this fella would be the person that was stalking me!
(TL: ”I dare to be...” A pun based on the rhyming of three words: 我敢确定，一定以及肯定！)
But then again, why would she be stalking me? Even if she had wanted to stalk, it would be better for her to go stalk Lian Bing..........unless it's that she wanted to get ahold of evidences or weaknesses regarding me?
After my thoughts had been sparked, the one who recovered first was me. I feigned an appearance of just only recognizing her, while using a brisk tone to speak.
”Mm? Lan Hua-tongxue? It's such a coincidence, I didn't expect that I will actually be meeting you here.”
”Kya! Kyaa! Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
She suddenly started screaming loudly.
One by one, passerbys started to shoot confused, perplexed and curious gazes over at our side, with me and Lan Hua-tongxue instantaneously becoming the center of attraction nearby.
”Eeehh........”
I'd say, was there a need to be that shocked? Since you had always been stalking me, you should have made mental preparations onto being discovered by me, right.
(TL: the 'you' term here he's using is rather impolite, 你这家伙 (you this fella) )
If it's to be said, I'm then the real victim here, but it's you instead who first played that card, causing me to fall into an inferior state already! Those people that didn't know would really thought that I had done something terrible towards you!
Although the matter about Lan Hua-tongxue was really very troublesome, what I should handle first as a priority wasn't her however, but the surrounding passerbys!
I hastily spun around, and while waving my hands, I loudly cried out.
”Umm, everyone, stop rubbernecking already! It's merely just my girlfriend pouting against me!”
With that sentence being exclaimed, Lan Hua-tongxue instantly stopped screaming, and afterwards, a huge portion of the passerbys had an expression of disinterest as they said 'Under such public conditions, what lack of upbringing', 'If you two young couple are going to argue then just go home to argue', 'What an embarrassment', 'Then again, that brat's girlfriend looks to be rather on point' and so on, starting to traverse their own paths once more, with only a select few who still wanted to rubberneck nevertheless placing their gazes upon us.
Phew..........I finally managed to avoid vengenance...........
However, I just had the distinct feeling, that an extremely lousy excuse was seemingly used............
Lan Hua-tongxue looked at me blankly, with a shocked expression etched on her face, as she half opened her mouth to blankly gaze at me.
”Um? Lan Hua-tongxue?”
I bent my knees downwards to a half squatting posture, and waved my hands in front of her eyes.
And afterwards, she regained back to her senses.
What followed closely next was that her face turned bright red reminiscent to that of a cooked octopus, as she clutched her mouth, releasing a mysterious-like voice.
”Uuummuuuuuuuuuuu!”
”Eeeh..........are you alright..........”
Um, speaking of which, this should be my first time that I struck a conversation with her............
Although the time that she was sitting diagonally behind me was way longer than the time where Lian Bing was sitting just behind me, but I equally didn't speak to her previously.
Hence, I don't really understand onto her personality.
But through her title as well as her status's color, I understood that she's a stalker that had tendencies leaning towards yuri regardless...........
Uuu...........in any case, I don't want to be acquainted with her.
After enduring it in for a while, Lan Hua-tongxue then let go of her hands, and right after deeply inhaling three times, she asked me with a trembling voice.
”Um, just now, g-, g-, girlfriend, are you saying about me? !”
”Ah, sorry, you must feel rather troubled by me saying out those kinds of words, huh. I merely don't want passerbys to misunderstand and blow the matter up...........”
While saying, I stretched my right hand over to her, wanting to pull her up.
She unhesitatingly grabbed my hand, but didn't stand up, placing her left hand covering mine instead. My hand had been being tightly grabbed by her using her both hands.
It's a little damp, her palm seemed to have dripped out lots of sweat.
”Um, um, ummm, ttttttttttttttttttttthhhhhankkkkk yyyyyouuu.........”
Just like a recorder which had been stuck, she trembled as she said out words of gratitude.
While I was just like a CD player instead which hanged, with my entirety being solidified in stone.
(TL: two famous neta, one is a recorder being often repetitive, another is a cd/dvd player which often hangs)
The sweat in her palms became even more and more, and I felt that it was even like using a wet cloth to wipe my hands already. Just like where one had finally obtained onto their favorite toy, she fondly played around with my hands addictingly.
(TL: the word 'addictingly' was used to replace '爱不释手', which describes an act of being fondly addicted to something so much that they cannot put it down with their hands. A neta metaphor in this case describing a handful situation)
Her hand movements were a little ambiguous, as she intersected and entangled her fingers with mine, plus she even massaged the sides of my fingers.
What's leaking from her mouth...........it can't be saliva, right..........
”........”
Um, why would it become like this............
Why, when Lan Hua was facing me............
Would her status be pink-coloreddddddd
