Chapter 24 Let’s make a bet

"Lu Mingfei, are you okay?" Chen Wenwen squatted down and handed the mineral water in her hand to Lu Mingfei, preparing to let him clean the wound first.

"It's okay, just a minor injury..." Lu Mingfei took the mineral water with a smile on his face and spoke in a nonchalant manner.

"You haven't explained what happened just now, why are you slandering our boss?!" Xu Yanyan spoke again, his fat body filled with oppression.

"I... I didn't... he just stretched out his foot." Lu Mingfei said weakly.

There is no doubt that Zhao Menghua did stretch out his foot and trip him when he started just now. No matter how stupid he is, he is not blind.

"You have to provide evidence when you speak. What good will it be for me to trip you?" Zhao Menghua sneered disdainfully.

"Our boss just came in first place. With such strength, would he embarrass you who are running last?" As soon as Xu Yanyan said this, the students around him burst into laughter.

Yes, Zhao Menghua just ran ahead of everyone, so why bother to trip up Lu Mingfei? He couldn't even get a whiff of Zhao Menghua's tail gas.

"Who knows, maybe he is jealous of me..." Lu Mingfei muttered.

"Jealous? Tell me, why am I jealous of you? Am I jealous that you always rank at the bottom in your studies, or am I jealous that you are such a poor guy that you even need others to pay for the internet?" Zhao Menghua's words were full of sarcasm.

Lu Mingfei listened to these heartbreaking words and felt the gazes of his classmates. His face suddenly felt hot and he wished he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

What I said just now that Zhao Menghua was jealous of me was not without basis, because before the start, Chen Wenwen even cheered me on and told me not to embarrass the literature club, and her smile was as gentle as ever.

Lu Mingfei was naturally full of confidence. After all, the goddess had cheered him on, so how could he not perform well? So the moment he started running, Zhao Menghua stretched out his foot.

Lu Mingfei was very sure that Zhao Menghua did this because Chen Wenwen encouraged him just now. After all, he was the one who spent the most time observing Chen Wenwen in the class. Besides himself, there was another person who often watched Chen Wenwen, and that was Zhao Menghua.

Lu Mingfei really wanted to say that you were just jealous of Chen Wenwen cheering me on and that’s why you did that on purpose, but he looked at Chen Wenwen’s concerned look and didn’t say anything for a long time.

If I tell it out loud, it will probably have a bad impact on this girl, right?
I still remember that when I was in elementary school, there was a girl who cared about me a lot. But after a while, someone spread the rumor that she was interested in me, and then this girl never contacted me again.

Lu Mingfei didn't want Chen Wenwen to become like this. He finally had the opportunity to get in touch with her. If she distanced herself from him because of this, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

"You can't tell? It turns out that you are framing the boss, right?" Xu Yanyan was very proud and began to pursue Lu Mingfei.

“If you say so, then so be it…” Lu Mingfei turned around in despair and was about to leave, but Xu Yanyan quickly stepped in front of him, with no intention of letting him go.

"Apologize to my boss! Hurry up!" Xu Yanyan raised her hand high and was about to grab Lu Mingfei's shoulder, but she felt a resistance. Someone grabbed her hand...

"Who is it? Nm..." Before he could finish his words, Xu Yanyan felt as if his hand was hung on a truck and turned around completely out of control.

"What did you want to say about my mother?" Gu Ye's eyes were so cold that Xu Yanyan didn't dare to look him in the face. What he hated most in his life was when people started talking about their mother with dirty words.

"Nothing... nothing, Brother Gu... I didn't mean it! I meant Lu Mingfei! Yes... Lu Mingfei!" Xu Yanyan explained in a panic.

"You can scold Lu Mingfei? We are all classmates, so you can bully us like this?" Gu Ye let go of her hand, and Xu Yanyan couldn't help but sit on the ground.

"No matter what, it was Lu Mingfei who slandered me first. What's the point of bullying Xu Yanyan?" Zhao Menghua stood in front of Xu Yanyan. Although he didn't want to come out, he had no choice but to ignore it since his younger brother stood up for him.

"Stupid..." Gu Ye glanced at Zhao Menghua, ignored him and came to Lu Mingfei.

"Is the wound okay?"

"It's just a minor injury. It will heal in a few days." Lu Mingfei smiled.

"Be more careful next time..."

"You he..." Seeing that Gu Ye ignored him, Zhao Menghua felt a surge of anger in his heart. Just as he was about to blurt out the word, he saw Gu Ye staring at him, so he could only swallow the words halfway through.

"Hmph! You should be very clear about what you just did..." With a cold snort, Gu Ye was ready to have a good argument with Zhao Menghua. He saw everything clearly just now.

"Forget it. We are all members of the literature club. It's just a small matter. Why make a big deal out of it?" Chen Wenwen finally spoke again when she saw that the situation was not good, but the first thing she said was to persuade everyone to stop.

"That's you, I'm not from the literature club..." Gu Ye would not give face to Chen Wenwen, but he was stopped by Lu Mingfei.

"Forget it, Brother Gu...it's just a small matter..." Lu Mingfei said.

"It's up to you..." Gu Ye was irritated by this guy. He glared at Zhao Menghua and turned away. Lu Mingfei gave Chen Wenwen an apologetic look and quickly caught up with Gu Ye.

"Are you angry? Brother Gu?"

"No... I thought Zhao Menghua was an idiot, but I didn't expect you to be even more stupid." Gu Ye said unhappily.

"Isn't this just giving Chen Wenwen a favor?" Lu Mingfei said embarrassedly. "Mingfei, you gave Chen Wenwen a favor, but did she give you a favor?" Xia Mi, who hadn't spoken for a long time, asked.

"what?"

"I think she should know everything, right? After all, you are not far away, and she can figure out what happened with just a little thought. If she wanted to be fair, she wouldn't have been watching."

Xia Mi was a bystander and could see things clearly. It was obvious that Chen Wenwen had a tacit attitude towards Zhao Menghua, otherwise she would have stopped him long ago.

"How is that possible? She even gave me mineral water to clean my wound... Please don't slander Chen Wenwen!" Lu Mingfei quickly retorted. Even though Xia Mi had given him a lot of benefits, it was not okay to say bad things about Chen Wenwen.

"She just feels sorry for you... After all, it was Zhao Menghua who made the mistake first, so she can only compensate you this way. Otherwise, why would she just give you mineral water and watch you being bullied by Xu Yanyan without saying anything?"

"She...she just doesn't know how to start..." Lu Mingfei still didn't want to believe it.

"Wake up, Mingfei..." Gu Ye couldn't bear it anymore.

"The whole school knows that you have a crush on Chen Wenwen. Do you think she doesn't know? She's just keeping you company to enjoy the feeling of being popular!"

“Stop talking nonsense, I hid it so well…” Lu Mingfei hadn’t finished speaking when he suddenly stopped talking when he saw the serious eyes of Xia Mi and Gu Ye.

Did the whole school really know about this? Lu Mingfei suddenly had the urge to run away.

"I like her, but it has nothing to do with me..." After holding it in for a long time, Lu Mingfei said this stubbornly.

"How about this, can we make a bet?" Xia Mi suggested.

"what?"

"If you confess your feelings to Chen Wenwen today, I'm sure she will neither refuse nor agree. She will also tell you that you are a good person and she only sees you as a friend."

"Do you believe that what she said is absolutely exactly the same as what I said?" Xia Mi said confidently.

"Let's bet!" After watching Chen Wenwen being denied by the two men, Lu Mingfei finally wanted to fight back. He suddenly wanted to prove to them that Chen Wenwen was not as bad as they said.

"Then Gu Ye and I will go buy you flowers! We'll be waiting for your good news in a while~" Xia Mi grabbed Gu Ye and ran out of the school.

"Wait! Aren't we still in class now?" Lu Mingfei panicked when he saw Xia Mi was so active. He was just impulsive.

"What's the big deal? It's the fourth class anyway. No one will care even if you go home for dinner..." Xia Mi didn't mind at all and continued to pull Gu Ye forward.

“How about we do it another day…” The more Lu Mingfei thought about it, the more he hesitated. He was totally unprepared.

"Some other day, what the hell! If you like someone, just confess! What's the point of having a crush on someone all the time? Do you understand girls? No girl would really hate a boy who is honest and bold enough to confess his love to her. Even if she doesn't accept it, she will definitely not look down on you."

"But secret love is different. No matter which girl she is, she will not remember the person who has a secret crush on her." Xia Mi said while blinking at Gu Ye.

"I understand..." Lu Mingfei took a deep breath. Xia Mi had set an example for him with her actions these past few days. He suddenly felt that maybe it was time to get an answer.

"I'm glad to know." Xia Mi looked like a teachable child, and disappeared from Lu Mingfei's sight with Gu Ye.

"I say...is this your love creed?" Gu Ye and Xia Mi were walking side by side, and he suddenly asked her.

"Of course, I, Xia Mi, hate procrastination the most. Straightforward is the way to go!"

"Suddenly it felt like we had something in common."

"Hey, are you attracted to me? My idol~"

"I didn't! And... when will you let go of your hand?" Gu Ye retorted while looking at Xia Mi's hand that was tightly clenched around his.

"Oh... you found me again... you are really on guard, my idol~" Xia Mi made an expression as if she was seen through, and reluctantly let go of Gu Ye's hand.

"Man, you succeeded in arousing my interest~"

"Be normal!"

"Don't like it? Then I'll change to another style..."

"Let's discuss what flowers to buy for Lu Mingfei..." The two of them walked slowly forward while arguing.

 I have written 3000 words without realizing it. I was originally planning to break it up, but after thinking about it, I decided not to as it would affect the viewing experience.

  In the next chapter, while cultivating the relationship with Xia Mi, Lu Mingfei will transform a little bit, and then the battle plot will be introduced. I guess everyone is getting tired of watching the daily life, and the protagonist will soon face the next battle (*ω`*)
  Once again, I shamelessly beg for monthly tickets and recommendation tickets. By the way, please stop supporting the book, otherwise the author won’t even get recommendations... It’s easy to directly support the poor author to death QAQ
