for Advance Chapter
I can certainly come up with 600,000 yuan. With the money Zhang Yiyu gave me, even 6 million yuan wouldn't be a big deal. But of course I wouldn't be so stupid as to give it to Diao Si. So how can I deal with this fat man in front of me?
Just as I was thinking about a countermeasure, Diao Si suddenly said loudly: "It's you, kid. I remember now."
Diao Si actually knew me? I've never dealt with him. He and Bai Yishan have had many conflicts, and he was always severely punished by Bai Yishan, but I never participated.
"Do you think I can't recognize you? Your name is Chen Xiao, the roommate of that bastard Guan Yishan. I have already investigated everyone in your dormitory thoroughly." Diao Si said angrily.
Diao Si mentioned Bai Yishan and immediately turned his head carefully to look around. After confirming that Bai Yishan was not nearby, he continued loudly, "Where's that bastard Bai Yishan? Call him over here. Is he afraid of me? I'm telling you, if you call him now, I'll beat the shit out of him today."
I took out my cell phone and pretended to actually make a call.
"No...no no no, let's talk it out." Diao Si quickly stopped me when he saw that I was really calling.
Looking at Diao Si's timid appearance in front of me, I just felt funny in my heart. He was obviously extremely afraid of Bai Yishan, but he pretended to be irreconcilable with Bai Yishan.
Diao Si usually only bullied ordinary students and didn't dare to attack anyone with a little status. At the beginning of the school year, he saw Qi Mengni was dressed shabbily, so he brought his group of lackeys to tease her, and was eventually taught a lesson by Bai Yishan.
"Do you still want the 600,000? Why don't I call Bai Yishan over? This amount of money is not a small amount. Can we pool it together?" I said coldly.
"No, no, this is just a misunderstanding." Diao Si shook his head like a rattle. Without my urging, he hurriedly got into his sports car and drove away.
I was also a little surprised. I thought it would take some effort to solve the problem, but I didn't expect that Diao Si would be scared away just by relying on Bai Yishan's name.
…
When I got to Lin Luoyan, this beautiful girl looked at me with sparkling eyes and asked curiously, "How did you deal with him? I saw that gangster seemed very scared at the end."
Of course I know why Diao Si is afraid. He has been beaten up by Bai Yishan so many times that he has already had a psychological trauma.
Lin Luoyan probably couldn't hear the conversation between Diao Si and I just now. She only saw that I solved her problem in just a few words, but she didn't know that I was actually taking advantage of the power of others.
I made up a story, "Can't you see that this scoundrel was trying to intimidate you? After I exposed him with my righteous words, he naturally ran away in fear."
Lin Luoyan didn't doubt it and said gratefully, "Wow, you're amazing. You dealt with that gangster so easily. I knew he was trying to intimidate me, but I was scared at the time and panicked. Thank you so much for today."
Lin Luoyan's flattery made my old face blush slightly. It was not easy for me to deal with Diao Si on my own. I was just borrowing Bai Yishan's reputation. Thinking about how I had been humiliating Bai Yishan's girlfriend in recent days, I felt even more guilty towards this roommate.
"It's a simple matter." I was worried that Lin Luoyan would keep asking for details, so I changed the subject and asked, "Where are you going? It's so hot, and you're going on a long journey with a parasol?"
"Yes, I was planning to go shopping, but I was unlucky and ran into this gangster. Fortunately, I met you, otherwise I don't know what to do." Lin Luoyan said to me with her eyes wide open.
"Oh, why not call a few sisters to go together?" I said casually.
I immediately felt a little regretful after saying that. Although Lin Luoyan was beautiful, she had a bit of a princess syndrome. Not only was she not very popular with boys, but even girls didn't like to play with her. When Lin Luoyan went shopping, she often went to some luxury stores, and ordinary girls would never accompany her.
If the beautiful woman in front of me gets unhappy after hearing what I said and starts to act like a spoiled brat, then I will feel uncomfortable again.
Sure enough, Lin Luoyan's face darkened. After all, most girls like to go shopping in groups, but she has to go alone. Not only does she not have a protector around her, she doesn't even have a little sister to keep her company.
"Well, I'm going back to the dormitory first. We can talk later when we have time."
After I finished speaking, I turned and left. After a few steps, I heard Lin Luoyan's voice with a slight trembling sound from behind.
"Um... Chen Xiao... can you go shopping with me?"
I turned around in surprise and looked at Lin Luoyan in front of me. I was a little flustered for a moment. This was the first time in my life that a girl asked me to go shopping together.
"Well... if you don't agree, forget it. I'll leave first." Lin Luoyan was stunned when she saw me, and suddenly tears fell.
I still remember the last time I ran into Lin Luoyan's soy milk in the classroom. She was so arrogant that day, and yet she looked so pitiful today. Looking at the salty tears rolling down her cheeks, a strange ripple arose in my heart.
This is only the second girl who cried in front of me in my life.
Some memories occupy my mind. In the distant past, when I was a child, there was a little girl crying like this in front of me. I didn't even know her. Under the same piercing sunlight as today, just looking at those crystal tears, I had an inexplicable sense of guilt, as if it was because of my rejection that she became an abandoned and homeless little wanderer.
I know that these two girls who cried in front of me have absolutely no connection, but that small figure overlaps with the tall figure in front of me because of the same tears.
If she were still alive, she would be a young girl like Lin Luoyan. However, with her small appearance, she would definitely not be as pretty as this, let alone as tall as this.
You know, I really want to see you again!
Looking at the girl crying like a pear blossom in front of me, although I don't have much affection for Lin Luoyan, I feel inexplicably throbbing in my heart, and I say inexplicably: "Okay."
