The Miao Boy Who Journeyed Through the Pages and Became Everyone's Beloved

Chapter 55: Sweet heat

Chapter 55

As night fell, Lu Huaiyu stood under a lush locust tree with his back to the bonfire in the distance. The mottled shadows of the moonlight fell on his face, making his handsome face more unpredictable and profound.

The corners of his lips were slightly curved, and his every move showed calmness and gentleness, but there was no trace of waves related to smile in the depths of his eyes.

As a former classmate, Jian Yi knew very well that Lu Huaiyu's character was definitely not as gentle and harmless as he looked on the surface. As early as high school, he knew that Lu Huaiyu was good at calculating and good at using things or people around him to achieve his goals.

Wearing a mask of being approachable, in fact, the indifference in his bones is even worse than him.

Jian Yi would not easily judge whether Lu Huaiyu's way of doing things was right or wrong. After all, everyone has their own set of social concepts and individual values ​​in dealing with people.

Strictly speaking, he and Lu Huaiyu were not familiar with each other. Even when they were in Chenglin High School, they were considered "colleagues", but in fact, except for some necessary activities, he and Lu Huaiyu maintained a state of non-interference most of the time.

Non-interference.

This was the case in high school, and now, Jian Yi naturally did not want this balance to be broken.

So at this moment, even if he heard some deep meanings implied in Lu Huaiyu's tone, Jian Yi did not intend to pay attention, let alone waste time on a person who was insignificant to him.

At the moment, the only person he cared about most was Xie Jinling.

If he was not sure at the beginning whether Xie Jinling was simply sleepy or drunk, now he was almost certain that Xie Jinling's situation belonged to the latter.

In this case, whether out of selfishness or out of a basic moral value, he could not let Xie Jinling go down the mountain alone.

Of course, the idea of ​​choosing Lin Ye to escort Xie Jinling was never within Jian Yi's consideration. In front of the person he liked, he could not be so frank.

Jian Yi thought a lot, but in fact only two seconds had passed.

He had his own plans, but it was obvious that Lu Huaiyu didn't want his existence to be ignored.

His eyes still stayed on the wrist that Jian Yi held Xie Jinling, and his dark pupils were deep and difficult to discern.

"Maybe... you should let go?"

Lu Huaiyu said calmly, and his unhurried tone seemed to be simply expressing his opinion, but if you listen carefully, it is not difficult to find that his voice was mixed with a bit of commanding coldness.

Jian Yi replied coldly and distantly: "I don't need you to tell me what to do." Lin Ye was fine, he knew that his position in Xie Jinling's heart was not as good as Lin Ye, but what position did Lu Huaiyu have to tell him this.

Lu Huaiyu was at best just a task for Xie Jinling.

At least there was still a little bit of friendship between him and Xie Jinling.

"... Um... I said... Can you let go..."

Xie Jinling now felt a little dizzy and didn't want to see these two people confronting each other there. Moreover, Jian Yi's grip on him made him feel uncomfortable, as if he was restrained. He

didn't like it...

He wanted to go back to sleep...

Xie Jinling shook his hand, but didn't get rid of it.
