Chapter 19

But Shen Luoluo did not get into his car.

In the novel, her grades were so poor that she could not keep up in class, and a teacher called her into the office for a talk. By the time she came out, Shen Xiche's car was long gone! Worse, her phone and schoolbag were locked in the classroom, so she could only take the bus home with the few coins left in her pocket.

When it rained, it poured. By the time her bus reached home, rain was coming down. The bus stop was still some distance from the Shen Family Villa, and she ran the rest of the way through it.

That night, she caught a cold and developed a fever of 39°C, but no one knew.

Because the whole family was at the hospital with Shen Anya that night.

It was all one big coincidence. Shen Xiche had finally found time to pick them up, only for Shen Anya's appendicitis to flare up. He took her to the hospital first and forgot all about Shen Luoluo.

The whole family went to the hospital to look after Shen Anya and forgot about her too.

She burned with fever all night. No one discovered it until the nanny went upstairs to wake her the next morning!

When Shen Luoluo had read that part, she could not help complaining about how powerful Koi Luck was. It might as well have been trying to kill her!

Now, though, she was curious. She was not in the same class as Shen Anya, and no teacher had asked her to stay after school. With the plot changed this much, would Shen Anya's Koi Luck still be as powerful?

Shen Anya received the same message as Shen Luoluo.

The corners of her mouth rose before she could stop them. Her second brother was actually coming to pick them up!

The girl beside her noticed her expression at once and teased, "What's got you so happy? A message from your boyfriend?"

Shen Anya put away her phone and said with a playful pout, "What boyfriend? I'm single. My second brother's coming to pick me up!"

"Your second brother?!" The girl grew excited. "Shen Xiche?"

"He's my second brother. Who else would it be?" Shen Anya replied.

"Ahhh!" the girl squealed. "Anya, when are you leaving? I'll go out with you!"

"Me too, me too!" Another girl came over when she heard Shen Xiche's name. "Anya, could you get your second brother's autograph for me? My friend is a huge fan!"

"I want one too! Your brother's finally back!"

"Don't worry, we won't bother you. We just want to look at him from afar! Please, please—we really like your second brother!"

"Exactly, Anya. Just help us this once! Your second brother hardly ever comes back. Who knows when we'll get another chance to see him?"

Shen Anya tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. With a bright smile and a sweet voice, she said, "Sure. Let's leave together after school."

The final bell rang that afternoon. Everyone packed up and filed out of the classroom.

Duan Yixing and Lu Yanze had packed their books and were about to leave when they noticed Shen Jiayan was still sitting at his desk, with no sign of getting up.

"Brother Yan, why aren't you leaving? Don't want to go home?"

"Yeah, Brother Yan, that's not like you. Aren't you going to wait for your sister?"

Shen Jiayan did not want to go out yet. He could already picture the scene at the school gate with Shen Xiche there to pick them up. He could not stand the sight of Shen Xiche looking so pleased with himself!

Lu Yanze went out, then came back in. "You sure you're not leaving? Your sister's waiting downstairs."

Ever since he had gone to find Shen Luoluo last time, the two had fallen into an unspoken habit of waiting for each other. If he finished first, he waited outside her classroom building; if she finished first, she waited downstairs for him. Most of the time, though, he was the one waiting.

She was in her second year of high school, while he was in his first. It could not be helped. Of course, if either of them had something to do, they let the other know beforehand.

Shen Jiayan promptly packed his books, grabbed his schoolbag, and headed downstairs.

They met without needing to say much and naturally walked toward the school gate together. Along the way, they could hear girls whispering nearby.

"I heard Shen Xiche came to pick up his sister. He's right outside our school!"

"Seriously?"

"Seriously! Someone took a picture. His hair's dyed blue today, and he's even hotter in person!"

"Holy crap! What are we waiting for? Hurry!"

The moment they stepped through the school gate, they spotted Shen Xiche. His short, tousled hair was pale blue, sunglasses rested on his nose, and he leaned lazily against the door of his Lamborghini. His legs seemed impossibly long, and a crowd of fangirls surrounded him.

Every one of them held a notebook and waited for his autograph. Anyone who did not know better would have thought he was holding a fan signing.

Shen Xiche seemed to spot them too. He took off his sunglasses and waved. "Over here." He even ran a hand through his pale blue hair from front to back and flashed a smile.

The fangirls around him burst into screams. "Ahhh! Shen Xiche is so handsome!"

Shen Jiayan: ...

Shen Luoluo: ...

He's such a show-off.

How does he manage to be so greasy?

What a waste of such a handsome face!

Three blows in a row. Shen Xiche's foot slipped, and he nearly fell to his knees again!

Is It the Kind of Intimate Contact He's Thinking Of?

◎Is it the kind of intimate contact he's thinking of?◎

He's such a show-off.

How does he manage to be so greasy?

What a waste of such a handsome face!

Standing beside her, Shen Jiayan heard Shen Luoluo's complaints loud and clear. When Shen Xiche suddenly slipped, Shen Jiayan became absolutely certain he had heard them too.

His sister had said exactly what he was thinking! That's what you get for showing off!

Shen Jiayan silently gave Shen Luoluo a point and put her on his side. Good. She disliked Shen Xiche just as much as he did. From now on, his sister was his ally!

Duan Yixing and Lu Yanze, who had come out with them, were laughing so hard they could barely stand!

They knew they should not laugh, but they really could not help it. Shen Luoluo's complaints were too good, and every word was true. Shen Xiche thought running a hand through his hair made him look cool. Little did he know that overdoing it just made him look greasy.
