The Protagonist Just Wants to Fall in Love [MTL]

Chapter 67-68

Chapter 67 Hug

The thin earlobe was a bright red and a little swollen. There was a pink cartoon band-aid underneath it, which gave it a girlish feel and was inexplicably harmonious with Lu Wenfei's listless face.

　　"Okay." Jian Sui took her hand away and gently rubbed it between her index finger and thumb, still feeling the warmth.

　　"Thank you." Lu Wenfei raised his hand and touched his earlobe. In fact, just now, he thought Jian Sui was angry, angry that he avoided him. This guess came out of nowhere and was ridiculous.

　　He put down his hand and tore off the paper covering the instant noodle box. He lowered his head to eat the instant noodles and felt Jian Sui's gaze lingering on his ear.

　　Jian Sui had a lollipop in his mouth, and he pushed the candy ball in and out of his mouth with the tip of his tongue. Sometimes his right cheek bulged, sometimes his left cheek bulged. He raised his hand and rested his elbow on the table, then tilted his head and looked at Lu Wenfei with his chin in his hand.

　　Lu Wenfei was defeated by such a gaze, "Ask if you want to."

　　"I want to ask." Jian Sui said, "I'm afraid you won't be willing to tell me."

　　"I'm not unhappy about it." Lu Wenfei said, "I had a fight with someone."

　　"With Xiao Chengyu?"

　　"Um."

　　The two fell silent again, and Lu Wenfei lowered his head to eat instant noodles.

　　At this time, there was a sound of a door being pushed open at the convenience store. Two girls came in hand in hand intimately, chatting in a light-hearted tone, and the quiet environment in the convenience store was suddenly broken.

　　They walked a few steps inside and immediately saw the figures of Jian Sui and Lu Wenfei. The two of them lowered their voices and nudged each other.

　　"Is that the guy who gave the freshman representative speech?"

　　"It seems so. What's that on his ear?"

　　"Band-Aid? You look so girly, did your girlfriend give it to you?"

　　"You have a girlfriend? That's impossible?"

　　...

　　Lu Wenfei vaguely sensed their gazes, and when he turned his head to glance over, he met the two girls' furtive gazes. The other party smiled embarrassedly, and hurriedly took the things with his companions to pay the bill.

　　Jian Sui: "Lu Wenfei."

　　Lu Wenfei turned around.

　　Jian Sui asked: "Can I ask one more question?"

　　Lu Wenfei: "What?"

　　Jian Sui: "Can I ask why the fight started?"

The boundary between the two of them was actually very vague. They were in a delicate relationship that seemed very familiar and intimate, but also seemed to be separated by a layer. Jian Sui didn't know if asking some questions would be considered crossing the line, but he asked tentatively, and Lu Wenfei didn't show much resistance.

　　He didn't say anything and lowered his head to eat instant noodles. Jian Sui didn't ask any further questions. A few minutes later, Lu Wenfei finished the instant noodles and wiped his mouth with a tissue.

　　Jian Sui stood up and said, "Let's go."

　　The two of them carried their things out of the convenience store and did not go directly to the dormitory. Jian Sui went to the infirmary and bought a bottle of iodine and cotton swabs.
