Chapter 125 – Quickly Leave! Your Life is at Stake… (2)
In the warm and sunny living room, Chen Yu and Xing Biqi sat staring at each other.
After some time had passed, Chen Yu finally caved and asked, “Why are you here?”
“T-To learn.”
“Why don’t you hurry it up, then?”
“Oh! Okay!” Xing Biqi hurriedly flipped through her physics textbook and pointed at a question, asking, “I-I don’t understand this question. Can you teach it to me, Chen Yu?”
When Chen Yu looked at the area Xing Biqi pointed at, he immediately revealed an angry smile and said, “Introduction to Newton’s scientific career? Is this even a damned question?”
Xing Biqi immediately grew flustered at Chen Yu’s statement. Hurriedly, she turned two pages forward and corrected herself, “I-It’s this one.”
“Rated power and actual power?” Standing up, Chen Yu walked around the coffee table and sat down beside Xing Biqi. He then grabbed one of Chen Erke’s crayons lying on the table and drew two lines on the textbook. “Isn’t the book’s explanation clear enough? Power generators such as electric motors and internal combustion engines are marked with rated power, which is the maximum power that these machines can operate under normal conditions…”
While Chen Yu was immersed in explaining, Xing Biqi silently turned to stare at the side of his face. Simultaneously, she gradually spread out her right leg, carefully touching Chen Yu’s left leg. Upon making skin contact, her cheeks immediately flushed red.
“Mm…”
Chen Yu frowned at this situation and promptly distanced himself from the girl.
Xing Biqi’s breathing quickened. Lowering her head shyly, she promptly stuck to Chen Yu once more.
Chen Yu then shifted away again.
Xing Biqi then stuck to him again.
Shifted again.
Stuck again…
After this cycle repeated several times, Xing Biqi had basically squeezed Chen Yu off the sofa.
“W-Why are you constantly avoiding me?” Xing Biqi asked in a very soft tone.
Hesitantly, Chen Yu said, “…Don’t you think this scenario is somewhat familiar?”
“I-Is that so?”
“Is this retribution?”
“Maybe it’s f-fate…” The blush on the girl’s face spread all the way to the tip of her ears.
“You…”
Buzz!
Before Chen Yu could speak out his mind, the familiar sound of electric current flowing suddenly came from above.
Looking up, he quickly noticed the Golden Middle Finger primed and ready to flick at Xing Biqi’s head!
“Little Peach!”
Chen Yu’s pupils shrank, and he immediately sprang up from his seat. He snatched over the Golden Middle Finger and tightly grabbed onto the invisible Little Peach in the nick of time.
“Huh?” Xing Biqi turned around in surprise. Looking at Chen Yu’s stiff figure, she asked, “What did you say?”
“Nothing! Nothing! Hahaha…”
“???”
“Hahahaha…”
Chen Yu calmly stored the Golden Middle Finger away while laughing loudly. He then grabbed Little Peach with both hands and dragged her back to his bedroom.
“Chen Yu, w-where are you going?”
“Give me a minute. I’m going to change into another set of clothes.”
After pushing Little Peach back into his bedroom, Chen Yu locked the door and angrily demanded, “What are you trying to do?!”
Exiting her invisibility mode, Little Peach angrily pouted, “All who dares to touch my man must die!”
Chen Yu: “…”
“I’m going to show her who’s boss!”
“Big Sis! Can you behave normally?!”
Rubbing his temples, Chen Yu pointed at the table and said, “Go back to coding! You’re not allowed to leave the room!”
“Mr. Chen, are you going to cheat?!”
“Cheat my ass! Little Peach, just you wait. I’m going to give you a proper education afterward.”
After walking out of his room and shutting the door, Chen Yu returned to the living room and sat down on the sofa.
“C-Chen Yu, weren’t you going to change your clothes?”
“Forget it. Let’s not talk about this.” Pointing at Xing Biqi’s down jacket, Chen Yu said, “Hurry up and put on your clothes.”
“A-Are you worried that I’ll catch a cold?”
“I’m worried you’ll die.”
“?”
“Hurry up. Get dressed and leave.”
“I still have a lot of questions.” Lowering her head, Xing Biqi pitifully expressed her request, “I want you to teach me.”
“That’s enough.” Waving the girl off in annoyance, Chen Yu suddenly put on a sharp look as he asked, “Out with it. What’s your goal?”
“Huh?”
“Get to the point. Let’s stop playing sneaky tricks.” Sneering, Chen Yu said, “It’s been almost two months now since you’ve started approaching me. What’s your aim?”
Xing Biqi shuddered at Chen Yu’s words, her head lowering even further.
“Since you don’t want to say it, then don’t.” Chen Yu grabbed Xing Biqi’s jacket and tossed it onto the girl’s shoulder. “Put it on and go.”
“I…”
“Go.”
“Actually…”
“Leave.”
Xing Biqi opened her mouth, but her reservation still prevented her from speaking out her heart.
In the end, she quietly put on her jacket, picked up her textbook, and walked toward the door under Chen Yu’s urging (protection).
Creak.
Pushing open the security door, Chen Yu pointed outside and said, “Go on. I won’t see you off. Stay safe on the road.”
“I…” Her grip on her textbook tightening and her breathing quickening, Xing Biqi suddenly raised her head and stared at Chen Yu with widened eyes. After summoning up her courage, she asked, “Do y-you like me?”
Chen Yu was stunned.
“I asked, do you like me?”
The boy and girl stared at each other for a whole 10 seconds.
After returning to his senses, Chen Yu indifferently said, “No.”
The girl’s eyes instantly reddened. Nodding, she turned around and muttered, “I understand.”
Gazing at the girl’s lonely back moving away, a light of inspiration flashed across Chen Yu’s eyes. Just as the girl was about to enter the elevator, he shouted, “Fool! Loving someone is different from liking someone!”
Xing Biqi’s body shook at Chen Yu’s words. Her head snapping back toward Chen Yu, and her eyes overflowing with tears, she asked, “Do y-you love me?”
“No.”
“…” The girl’s body stiffened.
“But, I can lie to you, dummy.”
Chen Yu revealed a smile as dazzling as the sun.
Bursting into tears and laughter, the girl asked, “Are you lying to me, then?”
“No. Everything I’ve said is true.” Chen Yu instantly wiped away the smile on his face.
“…”
“Hurry up and leave.”
“…”
Her breathing hastening, Xing Biqi stared at Chen Yu with teary eyes for a long time before she turned around and left.
“Hah…”
Chen Yu breathed out a sigh of satisfaction.
It didn’t matter how old a trick was. It was fine so long it was useful.
Although heroes of old usually fell at the hands of beauty, he was on a different level compared to these heroes. He wouldn’t fall for such schemes.
Just as Chen Yu had shut the security door and was about to lock it, the door suddenly got pulled open.
In the next moment, Xing Biqi leaped through the door and hugged Chen Yu. With a firm and crying voice, she declared, “You’re a bad guy! I’m going to date you! I’m definitely dating you!”
After saying so, the girl turned around and fled without looking back.
“Uh…”
Chen Yu stared at the girl’s departing figure in a daze, his brain falling into complete chaos… Only after noticing the murderous Little Peach chasing after the girl with a 40-meter-long lightsaber did he snap out of his daze…
“Crap? C-Come back!”
