"Scum?" Xu Yi was stunned, and his face quickly darkened. "Steele, tell me, what happened? If someone bullies you, just tell me and I will find a way to avenge you!"
"You?" Steele smiled and shook his head slightly. "You can't do it. His family is very powerful and there's no way you can defeat him."
"Are you very powerful?" Xu Yi raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "If that's the case, then we need to study it carefully. Come on, tell me, who is the guy who bullied you? The most important thing is, you... Was there any damage?"
Seeing Xu Yi's eyes roaming around his body, Steele's pale face showed a trace of blush, and he rolled his eyes at Xu Yi angrily: "What are you thinking about? Nothing happened to me! Don't forget, my grandfather But the great magician doesn’t have the guts to do anything to me.”
"That's true." Xu Yi nodded. "According to what you said, you just realized his scumbag nature, so... you fell out of love?"
"Bah! I've never been in love with him at all, okay? How can there be any lovelorn feeling?" Steele scolded.
Xu Yi laughed: "Failure of unrequited love can be regarded as lovelorn."
Seeing that Steele's expression had regained some vitality, Xu Yi felt relieved.
It seems that Steele simply discovered that his favorite target was a scumbag, which caused the beautiful image in his heart to be disillusioned and his spirit was hit.
This is a very common thing. It is not uncommon for young girls to encounter this kind of thing. As long as she herself is not harmed, she will naturally return to normal after a while.
"Hmph! You can still laugh!" Steele snorted and glared at Xu Yi fiercely.
Although he was a little angry, Steele found that after chatting with Xu Yi for a while, he surprisingly no longer felt as empty as before, as if the whole world had collapsed, and he seemed to come to life all of a sudden.
After a pause, Steele said sternly to Xu Yi: "Xu Yi, you are absolutely not allowed to tell my grandpa what I'm going to say next, do you understand?"
Xu Yi knew that Steele urgently needed someone to listen to her and relieve her worries, so he nodded solemnly and stared at Steele, waiting for her to speak.
"That gift... I didn't give it away..."
Under the darkness of night, there was only a weak light from a candle in Xu Yi's cabin.
With this light, Steele slowly told Xu Yi what he had experienced during this period.
This is actually a story that is not too surprising in Xu Yi's opinion.
The object of Steele's crush was her male classmate at Lampali Royal Academy. This male classmate was from a noble family in Anvilmar. Naturally, he had a good family background. In addition, he was handsome, handsome in manners, and possessed magic skills. He is extremely talented and is recognized as the "god man" in Lampali Royal Academy, and is secretly admired by many female students.
Steele is one of them.
It stands to reason that this is just an ordinary story about unrequited love, but Steele is a very persistent girl. Even though she has graduated from Lampali Royal College and returned to Bangta City, she has been far away from the male classmate ever since. , but still miss him all the time.
This time, taking advantage of the male classmate's birthday and holding a birthday party, Steele asked Xu Yi to help make an exquisite piano model, and then went directly to Anvilmar City with this thoughtful gift. Prepare to hand over the gift to the male classmate at the birthday party and take the opportunity to confess your love to him.
Who would have thought that after Steele went to Anvilmar City, he immediately heard bad news—the man in his heart was actually engaged!
Steele was naturally sad, but she still planned to give the gift away, but she was prepared to hide her feelings and sincerely wish the man in her heart a happy future.
If this matter ends here, it can be regarded as a somewhat sad story with a pretty good ending.
But what happened next was really unexpected.
Steele found the male god at the banquet and was going to hand him the gift, say a few words of blessing, and leave.
Unexpectedly, after meeting Steele, the male idol secretly expressed to Steele that he had always liked Steele.
Steele was surprised and happy, but still remembered that her boyfriend was engaged, and reminded her tactfully.
However, after the male god's sweet talk, Steele believed him inexplicably, and even secretly went on two dates with him in the next two days.
"Then why is that guy a scumbag?" Hearing this, Xu Yi looked at Steele with a strange expression. "Did he use force on you...?"
Steele's face turned red: "He doesn't dare to force me. But he...he...in short, he is a scumbag! He is obviously already engaged and has a fiancée, but he still keeps asking me for that kind of request. I rejected him , he actually said that I didn’t like him at all! Who said that if you like someone, you have to give your body to him? This scumbag, I overheard the conversation between some classmates. This guy had already played with many female classmates when he was in college, but no one admitted it afterward. He is already a complete scumbag!"
"Pah, pah, pah—"
Xu Yi suddenly applauded.
"Steele, congratulations."
Steele stared at Xu Yi with wide eyes: "I'm so miserable, and you still want to congratulate me? Are you here to comfort me or to ridicule me?"
"No, no, no, I sincerely congratulate you." Xu Yi smiled. "Steele, is it worthy of congratulations for being able to recognize the true face of a scumbag before causing greater losses? In addition, I admire your persistence and clear mind. Since that guy can deceive so many people As a female student, he must be very good at dealing with girls. It’s really rare for you to be able to stay clean under his influence.”
Steele's face turned slightly red and he snorted softly: "I won't be so contemptuous of myself."
Xu Yi chuckled and said: "That's good. But Steele, since you already know that he is a scumbag, why do you still have to torment yourself so much and make yourself look so miserable? It's totally not worth it. Well."
"I just... just can't think about it for a while." Steele muttered.
"What about now? Have you thought about it?"
Steele looked at Xu Yi, then at the night outside the window. After thinking for a while, he took out a delicate box from his backpack.
Opening the box, there was naturally the piano model she had made by herself.
Steele stared at the piano model blankly for a while, then suddenly took a deep breath and punched it down.
"boom-"
This piano model is extremely delicate, and naturally it is also extremely fragile. In addition, Steele's punch also contained a low-level fire magic. As a result, with one punch, the piano model immediately became shattered, and even the remains were burned to pieces. It instantly turned into a ball of fly ash.
"Okay, now I have nothing to do with this guy." Steele raised his head, and his beautiful blond hair flowed.
In just an instant, she seemed to have returned to the youthful, energetic and pretty girl she had been before.
Xu Yi couldn't help but laugh happily.
This Steele is indeed a girl with a strong character, and she recovered so easily.
However, this also shows that she is not really passionate about the so-called "male god". At best, it is just the natural admiration of a teenage girl for beautiful things.
This is fine, most girls will go through this, and Steele's ability to go through it like this can be regarded as enriching her life experience and making her more mature.
"Xu Yi, I won't go back tonight."
Just as Xu Yi was admiring in his heart, Steele's sudden words almost made him burst into laughter.
"Huh? You're not going back? You don't want to spend the night at my place, right?" Xu Yi widened his eyes and looked at Steele in disbelief. "Are you mistaken? I am a single man. You, a little girl, spend the night at my place. Aren't you afraid of something bad being said? If the great magician Camilla finds out, he will blow me away without using magic. It’s weird to fly!”
"Tch, I'm not worried. What are you worried about?" Steele glanced at Xu Yi disdainfully. "You keep saying that I'm a child, so what's the use of me as a child spending the night at your uncle's house? Besides, you have a little girl named Vivian at home, who is a single man? Don't worry, I'll be with you later Go sleep with Vivian, I won't disturb you, uncle." At this point, Steele stretched and walked straight to the bathroom. "I haven't showered in several days, and I'm very dirty. Hey, uncle, can you lend me a set of clothes first? I haven't even bothered to wash my clothes these days, and I have nothing to change."
Seeing Steele walking into the bathroom unceremoniously, Xu Yi could only blink helplessly, turned his head and saw that Vivian had opened the bedroom a crack, peeked over, and rushed to her Wave.
"Come on, Vivian, go greet Steele and tell her how to use our bathroom. By the way, are there any of the sets of clothes I bought for you last time that you haven't worn yet? Take one out and give it to her first. She puts it on, and I’ll buy you some more sets in a few days.”
Vivian nodded obediently, returned to the room, turned over a set of clothes and sent them to the bathroom.
After a while, the sound of water flowing and Steele's lilting singing sounded in the bathroom.
Xu Yi couldn't help but shook his head.
"This guy, how does he look like he just fell in love? Humph, you call me an uncle? I'm only twenty-seven years old this year! How does he look like an uncle? Hey, Vivian, do you think I look like an uncle?"
Poor Vivian looked at Xu Yi blankly, not knowing whether to nod or shake her head.
