"Brother Jing Ran, good afternoon~" Lu Yiyue poked her head in from the door, and waved enthusiastically at Jing Ran, "How can you not tell me such an important birthday?"
"It's a good thing I prepared a gift for you, otherwise Brother Yue Xing would think I'm bullying you again." Lu Yiyue pouted, "We're good friends, how could I bully you."
"Would you like to open it and have a look?" Lu Yiyue held out a small, delicately packaged box.
"Thank you." But Jing Ran rejected the gift.
"Brother Jing Ran doesn't regard me as a friend?" Lu Yiyue was taken aback, "Everyone knows that you accepted presents from the entire class on your birthday, why... Brother Jing Ran doesn't regard me as a friend?"
Lu Yiyue's petite face was full of sadness.
Jing Ran's eyes fell on Lu Yiyue's face, and a sarcasm flashed across the corner of his eyes.
Lu Yiyue unrepentantly opened the gift box, "As soon as I saw it, I thought it was very suitable for Brother Jing Ran. It would be a shame if you don't give it a try!"
Inside the gift box was a brooch of broken diamonds that was shining brightly. Lu Yiyue picked it up and gestured in front of Jing Ran, "The family will hold a banquet for the coming-of-age ceremony. Brother Jing Ran will definitely overwhelm the audience with it!"
Lu Yiyue spoke nicely, but she could barely hide the disdain on her face.He knew very well that Jing Ran was kicked out of the family and now lives in a slum. When she becomes an adult, she won't even have alimony. Maybe one day she will have no money to study and enter society early. There will be no banquets.
Pretend to be a noble person every day, and now his self-esteem has been frustrated.
But I don’t know anything, I have good intentions, so I must not be angry~
Lu Yiyue smiled even more prettily.
How could Jing Ran fail to see Lu Yiyue's hint, his eyes swept over the brooch, the cheap diamonds looked bright at first glance, but upon closer inspection they were full of cheapness.
Even teasing is not willing to come up with something good.Jing Ran thought, is he so easy to fool in Lu Yiyue's eyes?
Jing Ran has never seen anything good, these are leftovers from his play, if Lu Yiyue wants to use money to draw out his inferiority complex, then he really chose the wrong direction.
Jing Ran told the truth, "This thing has no right to appear on me."
Regarding Lu Yiyue, Jing Ran had complicated senses, but under Lu Yiyue's repeated provocations, all of them turned into boredom.
The provocations are coming, and Jing Ran will not let them go easily.
"Brother Jing Ran depends on the price when receiving gifts? I'm sorry, I didn't think too much about it." Being fooled, Lu Yiyue quickly grabbed Jing Ran's pigtails, "Did that classmate give you something expensive? But you are still students, so it’s not good to spend your family’s money to buy you expensive gifts..."
"My gift may not be expensive, but it's also my heart... If Brother Jing Ran doesn't like it, that's fine, I won't blame you..." Lu Yiyue's eyes overflowed with tears, as if she wanted to cry or not .
"Their things are indeed more valuable than yours." Jing Ran rejected his leapfrog touch, sincerity is beyond the reach of hypocrisy, "It's the first time I've met a person who treasures two or three yuan worth of gadgets on the street." arrive."
"Ah?" Lu Yiyue covered her mouth in surprise, and the hypocritical tears disappeared in the blink of an eye, "Brother Jing Ran, what are you talking about? You can look down on my things, I even said that I won't blame you, you Why are you still humiliating him?"
Lu Yiyue looked aggrieved, "You can't violate my will!"
"Your intentions are indeed cheap." Jing Ran raised her eyes, "Do you know that you're ugly just pretending? Life is not a stage, you'd better have less drama."
Jing Ran stopped giving him any extra glances, and he sorted out the last notes.
Lu Yiyue felt that the dark side deep in her heart had been seen through, and he who wanted to tease others with cheap packaging and gifts turned into a clown instead.
Why is it that Jing Ran is always superior, with a natural good looks and a superior family background, he doesn't need to study hard to be sought after by everyone... Lu Yiyue's eyes flashed fiercely, such a proud son of heaven should rot in the mud , Struggling in the dark, let him experience the pain of ordinary people.
Let's see how superior he dares to be!
At lunch time, the class was already half empty, and the scattered people bid farewell to Jing Ran one by one. When Lu Yiyue heard footsteps, he calmed down, and a pretentious voice came, "Brother Jing Ran, feel good. Welcome, so many Alphas greet you, I envy you so much."
Who doesn't like green tea?If Ren Yuexing likes this kind of thing, then he can do better, he is better than Jing Ran, kind and sensible!
"Does Brother Jing Ran know Alpha very well? Can you teach me, I..." Lu Yiyue looked shy, "I have someone I like... I want to know him better."
"Why are you sexist?" Jing Ran narrowed her eyes slightly, looking unhappy.
"Ah?" Strange accusation, Lu Yiyue quickly explained, "I don't, everyone is equal here, don't just label me!"
"I will be angry if you behave like this again, I will really be angry!" Lu Yiyue puffed up her cheeks.
"Oh." Jing Ran smiled, "Then why did you only see Alpha? I understand everyone."
Lu Yiyue: "...then you are awesome?"
Jing Ran nodded happily, "En."
Lu Yiyue: "..."
I'm so angry, I'm so angry again!
Ren Yuexing could hear Jing Ran's steady tone from a distance, and Lu Yiyue's delicate voice which was much louder in comparison.
With Jing Ran's temperament, she is taciturn, and when she is wronged, she will only hold back to herself, so she won't quarrel with others.Lu Yiyue looks like a good kid next door, but in fact she has a set of tricks, relying on her appearance to deceive her trust.
Jing Ran is not his opponent.
Jing Ran sat alone on the seat, Lu Yiyue looked down at him, holding a bunch of things in his hand.
Ren Yuexing's eyes darkened, and he stepped forward quickly, "Are you injured?"
Lu Yiyue's joy at seeing Ren Yuexing quickly turned into shock, "Brother Yuexing, what are you talking about? How could you get hurt if you are doing well at school?"
"Don't you think I did something to Brother Jing Ran?" Lu Yiyue looked hurt, "I just came to give Brother Jing Ran a gift... Although Brother Jing Ran doesn't like my gift..."
Lu Yiyue lowered her eyes, with an aggrieved look on her face.
Wait for a consolation.Lu Yiyue waited eagerly.
"I'm fine." The words that came to my mouth were changed in the system's notification tone, "It has nothing to do with Lu Yiyue, don't blame him."
Daily green tea quotes get.
Concealing the facts with vague words is Lu Yiyue's best method, but at this moment Lu Yiyue is the first time to empathize with the person he has hurt.
If you have something to say, just say it well, what is such a half-talk?
You should explain what "don't blame him" is!I was suffocated just after being hated by you, are you ashamed to be wronged first?
Lu Yiyue bit her lip and looked at Ren Yuexing, aggrieved, "Brother Yuexing, I didn't..."
"It's fine." Ren Yuexing taught Jing Ran, "From now on, you don't need to be polite with people you hate."
The smile on Lu Yiyue's face could hardly hold back, "Brother Yue Xing..."
"I'm waiting for you." Jing Ran raised his eyes, and a person who started to preach out of concern was reflected in his amber eyes.
Ren Yuexing chewed on these words, feeling his heart was full.
"I'll come sooner next time." Ren Yuexing said, eagerly waiting.
"Where's my candy?" Seeing that Jing Ran didn't respond, Ren Yuexing urged, the candy in the toffee jar is unpalatable.
Ren Yuexing obviously saved himself by picking one up and trying it when he thought of Jing Ran, but in the end he said it was gone and it was gone.
Jing Ran was worried when he saw the amount of sugar he ate, so he could only control it from the source. Ren Yuexing could get a toffee from Jing Ran every day.
"Oops." Jing Ran yelled softly, "I don't know where Xiaobai hid Candy, I can't find it."
Lu Yiyue, who had no way to intervene, felt that Jing Ran's acting skills were unsightly, and she didn't feel angry with her realism at all.
"Little Bai!" Ren Yuexing snorted coldly, "It must be hidden under the sofa."
No wonder he saw the spirit body digging the sofa last night when he couldn't wait for Jing Ran, and the spirit body dared to take the initiative to cut off the connection between the two. It seemed that his courage had inflated a lot.
"You know it very well." Jing Ran's eyes were bright, and the corners of her pursed mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
Ren Yuexing broke into a cold sweat secretly, "Don't dogs like to hide in these corners?"
"Yes." Jing Ran seemed to believe it.
Humph.
Ren Yuexing let go of his heart, it seems that he has been fooled.You must be vigilant in front of Jing Ran!Ren Yuexing warned himself.
Lu Yiyue finally waited for a break, and quickly interrupted, "Brother Yue Xing, I'm already hungry, don't you want to eat?"
"Why are you still here?" Ren Yuexing asked strangely.
Lu Yiyue endured it, "Brother, I'm always here."
"Then it's okay, you can go." Ren Yuexing was relieved that what Lu Yiyue was holding was not a murder weapon, but a pile of used wrapping paper, "What is this garbage?"
"...This is a gift from Brother Jing Ran." Lu Yiyue took out the brooch with difficulty, and one of the diamonds had fallen off, making the workmanship even more rough.
Originally, I wanted to find an opportunity to bully Jing Ran’s dislike of the poor and love of the rich, but now it’s fine, there’s no need:(
Ren Yuexing frowned, he couldn't imagine Jing Ran wearing it.
"Your vision..." Ren Yuexing said, "Forget it, Jing Ran doesn't lack these things."
"But it's all on my mind." Lu Yiyue held her mouth, as if she was about to cry or not.
Ren Yuexing commented mercilessly, "That's still not hard enough."
Jing Ran took out Xiaobai's contribution, "You've worked hard enough, you can keep all your money here with me."
When did you lose it?Ren Yuexing was a little puzzled.
"You can keep it if you want." Ren Yuexing pointed out two fingers, "I apply for one more candy every day."
"No." Jing Ran threw the bank card over.
Even the bank card can be lost to another person, what did the two of them do?Lu Yiyue's thoughts were spinning all over again, and she didn't bother to pretend to be around the bush anymore, so she directly stated her purpose, "Can I go to dinner with you? I have a bad appetite recently. I heard that Brother Yue Xing will bring Jing Ran Brother Kai Xiaozao, can I be with you?"
Nonsense, if he doesn't talk anymore, he suspects that he will be forgotten by these two people!
maybe not suspicious...
Ren Yuexing said sincerely: "The appetite will be worse."
Lu Yiyue didn't believe it, "How could it be, I'm not picky eaters, I just want a change of taste."
Ren Yuexing smiled, "I mean, we will lose our appetite seeing you."
Jing Ran rolled her eyes.
Leaving Lu Yiyue where she was, Jing Ran asked, "Why did you treat him like this?" Lu Yiyue's EQ was so low that she was about to cry.
"Did you see it?" Ren Yuexing said aggressively, "He is hostile to you."
Jing Ran was taken aback, for him?
The eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes, and Jing Ran whispered, "Aren't you and Lu Yiyue childhood friends?" Ruining this friendship for a person whom you have not known for a long time, and even the future will be... fairy couples... Is it worth it?
"What kind of childhood friend, I don't remember it anymore." Ren Yuexing frowned, even if Lu Yiyue vowed again, he didn't remember him.
Ren Yuexing's memory has always been good, and those who can't remember either really never met, or simply met a few times, without even bothering to remember, how close the relationship can be.Chatting about my brother and brother all day long, and even pushing and trampling on Jing Ran, Ren Yuexing was so annoying.
But Jing Ran, Ren Yuexing was always worried that his soft temper would be bullied, what would Jing Ran do if he wasn't around?
Ren Yuexing: "You are soft and soft. If you are fierce, no one will dare to bully you, you know?"
"Are you fierce?" Jing Ran's face turned cold, her brows and eyes were piercing.
Ren Yuexing seemed to see Jing Ran whom he met for the first time, with spikes all over his body.
"How timid." Jing Ran poked Ren Yuexing's cheek with her fingertips, "If you're worried about me, just keep looking at me."
When Ren Yuexing came back to his senses, his mind was in a mess.
"It's a good thing I prepared a gift for you, otherwise Brother Yue Xing would think I'm bullying you again." Lu Yiyue pouted, "We're good friends, how could I bully you."
"Would you like to open it and have a look?" Lu Yiyue held out a small, delicately packaged box.
"Thank you." But Jing Ran rejected the gift.
"Brother Jing Ran doesn't regard me as a friend?" Lu Yiyue was taken aback, "Everyone knows that you accepted presents from the entire class on your birthday, why... Brother Jing Ran doesn't regard me as a friend?"
