The Sickly Villain Only Wants to Survive

33

During the ten-minute break, apart from those rushing to the bathroom, very few people left the classroom.

Zhou Sui had been at this school for over two years and was somewhat famous in Class 7 due to his basketball skills. Thus, when someone came looking for him in the classroom, many curious eyes inevitably turned to him.

Zhou Sui anticipated that Zhu Tong would return the medicine he sent, wanting to clarify that he was simply being caring, but he didn't expect such a reaction.

To toss his gift directly into the trash?

And to say it so bluntly?

It was not just a rejection but a blatant display of disdain and humiliation!

The other students in the classroom were also taken aback.

They knew Zhou Sui fairly well as a typically gentle person, albeit a bit of a flirt, having dated countless girls at school and employing various methods to pursue them.

However, Zhou Sui had mainly pursued girls before and had never faced rejection like this.

Now, he was... hitting a wall?

Moreover, who was that boy who just tossed the bag into the trash?

Zhu Tong?

Was it the same Zhu Tong they were thinking of—the sickly beauty who had recently made a splash at school?

Zhou Sui had his eyes set on that sickly beauty?

Laughter and teasing erupted in the classroom. "Whoa, Sui-ge, you're quite bold! Are you deliberately picking the hardest nut to crack?"

"That little junior is fierce! How much disdain does he have to feel to reject you so thoroughly?"

"Impressive, really efficient!"

"Zhou Sui, you finally have a day like this, haha!"

The banter from around him made Zhou Sui feel as though he couldn't breathe.

He barely maintained his composure and looked at the boy who had come to deliver the items. "Um... Did Zhu Tong misunderstand something? I sent him the medicine because his brother asked me to take care of him at school. I meant no harm."

The boy remained unfazed by Zhou Sui's words. "Oh," he replied, "I'm just here to deliver the message; if you want to explain yourself, you'll have to talk to him..."

Pausing for a moment, he added, "But he did say to stay away, so I don't see any need for an explanation."

"..."

That boy was truly a master at delivering cutting remarks.

Zhou Sui maintained a smile, biting his teeth in frustration. Before he could respond, the boy had already turned and exited the classroom.

The other students in Class 7 quickly gathered around him, curious.

"What does this mean, Zhou Sui? You actually know Zhu Tong's brother?"

"Is it true? I heard Zhu Tong's family is quite something. How do you know his brother?"

Zhou Sui straightened himself out, smiling as he replied, "I met him while playing basketball in the city."

While he casually referenced his relationship with Qin Junhong, he internally berated him.

Zhu Tong clearly trusted him a lot.

Trusted him, my foot!

If he truly trusted him, how could he have that attitude toward someone he called a "friend"?
