Liu Erlong Became a Complete Clown

"Xiao Gang, where are you going?"

Seeing Yu Xiaogang leave the bed and stagger away, Liu Erlong hurried after him and asked.

But something she had never expected happened.

Yu Xiaogang shoved Liu Erlong away and snapped, "Liu Erlong, let go of me."

"Don't touch me."

"I'm afraid Dong'er will misunderstand."

"The person I've loved has always been Dong'er. There's never been a place for you in my heart."

"You should go to Flender instead. He loves you too."

"Let's have nothing more to do with each other."

"I'm afraid Dong'er will misunderstand!"

With that, Yu Xiaogang turned and left the room without a trace of reluctance, heading out of Shrek Academy.

He was going to find Bibi Dong now.

He wanted to tell Bibi Dong how much he had missed her all these years.

Liu Erlong stared blankly at Yu Xiaogang's retreating figure, left in disarray in the wind. She felt like the very picture of a clown.

Xiao Gang never loved me.

I was just a substitute for Bibi Dong.

No, none of this is real!

It's fake. It has to be fake!

Xiao Gang, how could you do this?

Flender saw Yu Xiaogang's heartlessness and Liu Erlong's utter devastation.

He immediately flew into a rage.

"Yu Xiaogang, you bastard! Stop right there!" Flender roared, chasing after Yu Xiaogang, grabbing his shoulder, and pulling him back.

"Flender, what are you doing?"

"Let go of me! Don't delay me from finding Bibi Dong!" Yu Xiaogang shouted as he struggled.

"Yu Xiaogang, you heartless beast! Have you forgotten how well Liu Erlong treated you?" Flender dragged Yu Xiaogang in front of Liu Erlong and demanded.

"Flender, let go of me!"

Yu Xiaogang pushed Flender away and continued:

"You don't understand at all. Some things can't be forced, especially matters of the heart."

"Besides, Liu Erlong and I are paternal cousins. We can't be together."

"Flender, I know you like Liu Erlong, so stop pretending. I'm giving you your chance now. You should be thanking me."

"Yu Xiaogang, you're a bastard!"

"And to think Liu Erlong trusted you and treated you so well!" Furious beyond measure, Flender punched Yu Xiaogang in the face, caving in the bridge of his nose.

"Ow! Flender, what are you doing? Don't you know you're not supposed to hit people in the face?" Yu Xiaogang fell to the floor, clutching his nose in pain.

"Yu Xiaogang, don't even think about finding Bibi Dong. You're staying with Liu Erlong." Flender blocked the doorway outright, refusing to let Yu Xiaogang leave.

"Flender, you're completely unreasonable!" Yu Xiaogang climbed to his feet and pointed at Flender's nose, trembling all over with anger.

"Yu Xiaogang, just answer one question. Have you really never loved me at all?" Liu Erlong demanded, looking at Yu Xiaogang's back.

Yu Xiaogang turned around, knowing that if he wanted to leave Shrek Academy to find Bibi Dong today, he had to get past Liu Erlong first.

"Liu Erlong, that's right. I've never loved you."

"You were nothing more than a substitute for Bibi Dong."

"I only approached you back then because you had decent talent, and I happened to need someone to keep me company. Don't think too highly of yourself."

"All right, Liu Erlong. I've said what I needed to say. Tell Flender to move aside."

"Don't stop me from finding Bibi Dong."

"Bibi Dong is my true love."

"She's suffered so much all these years, yet I misunderstood her."

"Now is when she needs me by her side to comfort her."

With that, Yu Xiaogang turned without a trace of reluctance, walked toward Flender, and snapped:

"Flender, move aside. Blocking me like this does none of us any good-not you, not me, and not Liu Erlong."

"Don't you like Liu Erlong?"

"I've already given you your chance. What more do you want?"

Yu Xiaogang knew that Bibi Dong would absolutely not tolerate any other woman by his side now.

Besides, he and Liu Erlong were paternal cousins and could never be together. He might as well break things off sooner.

Staring at Yu Xiaogang's heartless retreating figure, Liu Erlong roared furiously:

"Flender, let him go!"

"Yu Xiaogang, once you leave Shrek Academy, never come back!"

"Get out! Get out!"

"Go find your Bibi Dong!"

"Liu Erlong, Flender, rest assured. Once I find Bibi Dong, I naturally won't return to Shrek Academy." Yu Xiaogang shoved Flender aside and headed out the door, quickly leaving Shrek Academy.

"Waaah..."

"Yu Xiaogang, you're so heartless!"

"You abandoned me for Bibi Dong."

"Who saved you when Tang San wanted to kill you? Who brought you back to Shrek Academy when you were injured?"

"Who comforted you when you were sad? Who stayed by your side and kept encouraging you when others questioned you?"

"It was me. It was all me!"

"Bibi Dong did nothing. Why does she get to steal my credit?"

"Yu Xiaogang, you're so heartless."

"Now that you've left, don't come back for the rest of your life. I'll never forgive you."

Flender couldn't bear to see Liu Erlong so utterly heartbroken.

He came up to Liu Erlong, took her in his arms, and gently patted her back as he said:

"Erlong, cry if you want to."

"Even without that faithless man Yu Xiaogang, you still have me!"

"Let it out, and you'll be all right, Erlong."

"Waaah, Flender, tell me, how could Yu Xiaogang be so heartless?"

"Haven't I treated him well enough?"

"Why did he leave me?"

"In what way am I inferior to Bibi Dong?"

"Erlong, it's not that you aren't good enough. Yu Xiaogang is simply a faithless man."

"Like disciple, like master. Tang San is an ungrateful wolf, and Yu Xiaogang is no good either!"

"A faithless man like that isn't worth your love, nor is he worth giving your heart to."

"Waaah, Flender." Under Flender's continued words of comfort, Liu Erlong finally let down her strong front and sobbed aloud in his arms.

About three to five minutes later.

Liu Erlong's sobbing gradually faded.

She looked into Flender's eyes, the flames of anger and revenge against Yu Xiaogang rising in her gaze.

Yu Xiaogang, didn't you want me to be with Flender?

Fine. I'll grant your wish!

Liu Erlong had always had a fiery temper and had always dared to act on her thoughts.

Now that she had decided to take revenge on Yu Xiaogang, not even ten oxen could pull her back.

Liu Erlong pressed her lips straight against Flender's and pushed him to the floor.

Flender's mind went blank.

This happiness came far too suddenly!

Ah, no, I can't take advantage of her vulnerability!

If anything happens between Erlong and me now, won't she hate me to death once she regains her senses?

"Erlong, get a hold of yourself."
