The atmosphere dropped directly to freezing point.
Even Tiantian didn't expect that Lu Yueyi would say these words.
First of all, she didn't expect that she would be so direct.
Secondly, what does it mean...I know you like me?
A normal confession would be that I like you, right?
The fool was completely stunned. He stood there stunned for a few seconds, then blinked and felt that he had heard wrongly.
"Xu Zishan?" Lu Qieyi was not satisfied with the fool's reaction, "Did you hear that?"
"I...ah?" The fool tilted his head, "Huh?"
"I said, I know you like me," Lu Qieyi's tone became more serious this time, "So you don't have to pretend to be so strong in front of me. I know your vulnerability, I understand."
"Oh my god." Qin Yin didn't understand the fool's fragility, but she understood the fool's confusion at the moment.
"I...I..." The fool was speechless and choked.
"Xu Zishan," Lu Jieyi walked towards the fool, "you..."
"Wait! Don't come over here!" The fool took half a step back, breathing heavily, his eyes widening. "You...don't come over here..."
"Xu Zishan..."
"I have to go." The fool turned around half a circle in a daze, and then strode towards the door.
"Xu Zishan!" Lu Jieyi chased after him.
The idiot heard the footsteps behind him and actually started running. Under everyone's shocked gaze, the idiot opened the bedroom door and jumped out while crawling on the ground.
Qin Yin and Wen Ling also came to the door to take a look. The fool simply transformed into a black lightning and flew out of the living room. Lu Shoucai, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, was so shocked that he stood up. It took him a long time.
He asked towards the door where the fool was no longer visible, "A fellow...classmate?"
By this time, the classmate should have run to the road outside the building.
"Yiyi," Lu Shoucai turned his head and looked at Lu Yueyi and Tiantian standing at the door of the bedroom, "What's wrong with that classmate?"
Seeing that Lu Jieyi's face was red with embarrassment, Tian Tian hurriedly came over to smooth things over, "It's okay, uncle, that classmate's mental endurance is too poor."
"Ability to bear?" Lu Shoucai wondered how he could supplement his mental endurance by taking extra classes.
"It's just...he just knew that the police found the head in Yui's bathroom," Tada said, "and then he ran away in fear."
"It's not my bathroom, it's the ventilation duct above." Lu Yueyi corrected in a loud voice.
"This...sigh," Lu Shoucai shook his head, "There's nothing we can do...at least we should wait for his family to pick him up. It's dark outside."
Lu Jieyi and Tiantian looked at each other.
"Dad, he has no family," Lu Yueyi said softly, "he is an orphan."
"Ah? Like this..." Lu Shoucai's eyes widened slightly, and then he sighed, "You can't tell, he is a poor child... Oh, then you should tell me so that I can send him off.
.”
"We didn't know he would be scared away." Tiantian looked at Lu Qieyi with a thoughtful smile.
Lu Jieyi's mouth curled up, "Dad, let's go back to the house to study."
After the door closed, Lu Jieyi sat back on the chair depressedly.
Tian Tian looked at Lu Yuiyi's appearance and burst out laughing, "Hahaha, Yui, you should really see what you look like now, you look like a sulking hamster."
"Stop making trouble," Lu Qieyi was not amused, but became even more depressed, "Come here, what do you think is going on?"
"What's going on?"
"Why is Xu Zishan running away?" Lu Yueyi seemed to really not understand, "I didn't say anything I shouldn't have said."
"Miss, what else do you want to say?" Tian Tian spread his hands, "Where can anyone express love like you? I know you like me... Are you too confident?"
"Why am I confident? Didn't you say the same thing?" Lu Jieyi stood up angrily, "It was you who encouraged me to confess... No, I had no intention of confessing in the first place. Why should I confess at this time? Now it's
When he studies hard, I say those words to him just to let him study."
"Wait a minute, I don't understand your logic a little bit," Tian Tian made a pause gesture, "Do those words of yours have anything to do with studying?"
"I want to tell him that I know he likes me, so he doesn't need to pretend to be strong in front of me. I know those people have been bullying him..."
"Here we go again," Tian Tian shrugged, "How can you be so sure that those people are bullying him? They are not in our class, and didn't Xu Zishan say they are friends?"
Lu Jieyi's breathing became heavy. She stared at Tiantian with wide eyes. It took a long time to calm down.
"Forget it, I won't explain it to you anymore," Lu Yueyi waved her hands impatiently, "You don't understand at all."
"What don't I understand? I don't understand you, or do I understand him?"
"You don't understand us," Lu Jieyi glanced at her sideways, "you won't understand."
The smile on Tiantian's face disappeared, replaced by a slightly sad expression of disappointment.
"Do you always think I don't understand you?"
"I...I'm not saying you don't understand me," Lu Yueyi's facial features were as tangled as her brain, "Tiantian, I don't mean that, I mean, you...you have a father and a mother, you
Family happiness, you won’t understand what we people think..."
It turns out this is what she was referring to.
Single parent.
Qin Yin and Wen Ling also suddenly realized.
"No wonder she is so obsessed with being a fool," Qin Yin nodded and said, "No wonder she is so obsessed with her own ideas."
Because she believed from the bottom of her heart that the idiot who was an orphan and herself who lost her mother were the same kind of people.
They share a common loneliness, a common inferiority complex, and a common disguise.
"You...do you understand?" Lu Yueyi lowered her head, "I know what Xu Zishan is thinking, because I think so myself, but I want to save him, just like saving myself."
Lu Jieyi desperately projected her sensitivity and vulnerability onto the fool. She wanted to pull the fool back, and she wanted to pull back the self who had walked into the abyss.
But the problem is, the fool...is not that kind of person.
Tiantian was stunned on the spot. She opened her mouth slightly, but couldn't say a word.
Lu Jieyi looked up at her tiredly, "Did it scare you?"
"You never told me this," Tiantian's voice seemed to be squeezed out, "I thought you were very happy."
"I'm very happy," Lu Qieyi said with a smile, "At least I have my father who loves me."
"But……"
"But Xu Zishan is different," Lu Qieyi slowly moved back to the desk, "He has nothing, so I have to save him."
