Chapter 87

Especially when Han Yu saw He Xue's constant worry for him, he felt nauseous.

He Xue's hypocritical mask is disgusting. Does she really think she's the Virgin Mary?

"It's good that you're alright, because I heard this morning that you were involved in a fight."

"Although you said you weren't hurt, I'm afraid you were frightened by what happened."

Seeing that Han Yu was still the same innocent and lively girl she always was, He Xue held Han Yu's small hand and smiled slightly.

It's good that nothing happened. After all, what happened yesterday caused quite a stir, and all the students and teachers in the school heard about it.

Xiao Yu had been captured by Di Yue's men, but thankfully nothing bad happened.

"He Xue, are you really worried about me?"

Han Yu suddenly asked this question.

He Xue really worried about me? What good would it do her to worry about me?

Even if I am injured, even if I am disfigured by those thugs, what does it have to do with He Xue?

Is it simply because the word "friend" has only 12 strokes?

"Huh? Of course! We're friends, aren't we?"

He Xue was stunned; she didn't know why Xiao Yu would ask such a strange question.

Xiao Yu is her best friend. Is there anything wrong with caring about your friend?

Or is Xiao Yu trying to express something through this? I feel like Xiao Yu's attitude is a bit different today.

"Ah, yes, I'm He Xue's best friend."

Han Yu lowered her head and chuckled softly.

This might be the second reason why she likes He Xue.

The first reason is Wu Liang, and the second reason is that He Xue herself is too interesting.

"He Xue, do you think those two people are friends?"

Han Yu pointed to Nan Zhu and the Rat, who were playing around.

Are those two people friends? Are those two people Wu Liang's friends?

For Wu Liang, what kind of people were those two? Were they trustworthy?

"I think so."

He Xue looked in the direction Han Yu pointed.

She did not come to school yesterday afternoon, but a serious and vicious fight occurred that same afternoon.

It is said that the Imperial Moon Academy took the initiative to provoke them, and in the end, Wu Liang stepped in to resolve the matter.

Although it's unclear whether the exaggerated news about Wu Liang fighting ten people at once is true or false, it is true that Wu Liang saved Xiao Yu at that time.

"Is that so, a friend?"

Han Yu smiled; friends were something dispensable and utterly useless to her.

Those are just tools that can be discarded at any time; the deeper you get involved, the more you will be hurt.

She understood this principle better than anyone else; the pain she had personally experienced was etched deep in her heart like a branding iron, unforgettable.

"Yes, I'm He Xue, your best friend."

Han Yu gently hugged He Xue and whispered something in her ear.

I almost threw up. People who keep talking about friends are just disgusting.

What is my place in He Xue's heart? I'm starting to wonder.

These kinds of games with my girlfriends are about to end; I'm getting a little tired of them.

Moreover, He Xue and Wu Liang seem to be getting closer and closer... even though she used to dislike Wu Liang so much...

"Yes, Xiao Yu is my best friend."

He Xue didn't know why Xiao Yu was suddenly acting so coquettishly towards her.

In the past, whenever she tried to hug Xiao Yu, Xiaoyu would always nimbly dodge her.

Xiao Yu felt different today than usual, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong.

"Wow, your bracelet is so pretty!!"

"Yes, yes, it's really beautiful."

"Wow, this thing must be very expensive!"

One of the girls exclaimed in surprise when she saw the sparkling bracelet on her friend's wrist.

This must be very expensive. It's so nice, it's sparkly.

"Haha, this is a birthday present my father gave me, isn't it beautiful?"

The girl being praised had beautiful blonde hair, and her exquisite makeup made her look extra mature.

She puffed out her chest and said confidently, "This was bought for me by my father at a very high price."

"Those guys are so noisy."

Han Yu glanced at the group of girls around her who were chattering incessantly.

However, his gaze remained fixed on the golden pendant on the other person's wrist.

"It's alright. That bracelet is really pretty. It would look great on you, Xiao Yu."

He Xue followed Han Yu's gaze to the gold bracelet.

That thing was clearly an expensive treasure; for someone like her, just looking at it was enough.

"Maybe."

Han Yu smiled sweetly...

P. S.: Requesting some monthly votes at the end of the month!

Chapter Twenty-Six: The Ice Queen on the Pedestrian Street

On the bustling pedestrian street, you can often see young couples walking intimately together.

Although the weather was a bit hot in the afternoon, it was not an obstacle for these young people.

Under the ancient tree in the center of the pedestrian street, many couples were enjoying the cool shade and discussing their later plans.

Even on this day that wasn't a day off, there were still quite a few people walking around in the entertainment plaza of the pedestrian street.

Especially some couples who wanted to show their affection were leaning together, chatting with smiles on their faces.

"How about we go see a movie later? It'll be a treat for you tonight. Let's stay out tonight."

She took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from her boyfriend's forehead.

My boyfriend worked hard today, so I'll reward him by spending some time with him outside.

"Eeeeeeeeeeeee!!!"

The young man, who had been somewhat listless, became as excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood after hearing his girlfriend's words.

Oh my God, you've finally opened your eyes! Looks like my hard work today wasn't for nothing!

"Look how happy you are! Among the clothes I bought today, there's a really sexy lingerie set—lace, you know~"

The woman leaned close to the man's ear and whispered something in a voice only the two of them could hear.

Her slightly flushed cheeks showed that she was very shy, after all, this was the first time she had bought such stimulating lingerie.

However, everyone says that buying sexy lingerie can make your boyfriend more excited, so she tried buying a set.

"Oh, oh, oh, oh!! Then I will definitely listen carefully to Your Majesty's instructions this afternoon! I will do my best! I will definitely not let you down!!"

The man suddenly stood up from his seat, raised his arms, and snorted, looking full of energy.

Especially when a man hears that his girlfriend has bought a sexy set of lingerie, he suddenly feels full of energy.

His previously depleted energy was instantly replenished, and if it were him now, he wouldn't feel tired even if he walked around for another afternoon.

"Haha, then I'll leave the afternoon to you. But I won't make you too tired; we can just watch a movie and have some snacks this afternoon~"

The girl was secretly delighted to see her boyfriend so excited.

I didn't expect men to like this kind of thing. Maybe I should try some new tricks with my boyfriend in the future.

But then again, she really didn't expect her boyfriend to spend so much time with her.

"No, no, no, I will follow Lady's arrangements."

"This afternoon I will be your most loyal servant..."

Just as the man was about to try and please his girlfriend, a beautiful figure suddenly appeared in his line of sight.

When he saw that fairy-like figure, he swallowed back the words that were about to come out.

"So... so beautiful..."

The man stared blankly at the two women in front of him, momentarily dazed.

"Oh dear, don't be so mushy in front of so many people."

The girl blushed upon hearing her boyfriend's praise and twisted her body shyly.

But soon, the girl realized that her boyfriend's gaze was not on her, but on something behind him.

"That bastard, has he fallen for another woman again?"

Upon seeing her boyfriend's infatuated expression, the girl's previously blissful expression instantly crumbled.

Seeing the lecherous look on this guy's face, you can tell he's seen some hot woman.

The girl, thinking about this, was also furious and quickly turned around to look behind her.

This guy was just saying sweet nothings to her a moment ago, but good heavens, he was bewitched by another woman in less than two minutes.

She wanted to see just how anyone could bewitch her boyfriend like that; she simply refused to believe it.

"Which vixen is it... eh..."

Following her boyfriend's gaze, the girl looked behind her and froze. The noisy sounds around her quieted down considerably.

Huh? A model? A top model? Or some celebrity from somewhere?

Staring blankly at the man who had suddenly appeared on the pedestrian street, the girl felt her face flush.

To encounter such a handsome man in a place like this is incredibly lucky...

It wasn't just this couple; passersby around them also stopped and took a closer look when they saw the two of them.

Regardless of gender, everyone's eyes were focused on the two people not far away.

Especially the woman in the black gauze dress, whose beautiful eyes were captivating and whose cold gaze gave people a chill.

A light gray belted dress hugged her delicate body, and her fair and alluring legs were outlined perfectly by over-the-knee boots.

A thin veil, like a waterfall, draped around her slender waist and hung horizontally beside her thighs. With each step she took forward, the veil danced gracefully.

Her light and elegant attire, yet not aloof, drew admiring glances from the men and women around her.

"So beautiful..."

The men around her stared blankly at the black-haired woman who looked like an ice queen.

Both her looks and her temperament are top-notch; even celebrities and models would find it difficult to compare.

However, they could only look from there; the biting cold around them made them hesitate to go any further.

They could only admire each other's beauty from afar; no one dared to approach and strike up a conversation.

It was as if there was an impenetrable wall surrounding her, isolating her from the world and keeping her away from worldly disturbances.

"Hey, look at that guy next to her, wow! He's so handsome!!"
