What Xue Xue didn't expect was that Long Defei would ask him out.
To be more precise, he should have come to the door on his own initiative.
It was an unremarkable afternoon.
In late spring and March, when the grass grows and the warbler flies, Xue Xuegang and his roommate Luo Fei, who are bathed in the sun and look lazy, are ready to go back to the dormitory after buying drinks, when two men in black suddenly appear on the way to block the way.
The university campus is a semi-open environment, with people coming and going, and getting in and out is complicated.
Facing the unfriendly man, before Xue Xue could react, Luo Fei stood up one step earlier, eyes full of vigilance.
"who are you?"
Luo Fei was less than 1.6 meters tall, and her petite body stood in front of her without hesitation, which made Xue Xue feel very moved.
At the same time, tense nerves are instantly relaxed.
She intuitively felt that the other party was looking for her.
Entrusted by others, it is a matter of loyalty.
"It's okay, Feifei." Putting her hand on Luo Fei's wrist, Xue Xue looked at the person coming. "Who sent you here?"
When learning that these two people were sent by Long Defei, Xue Xue's first thought was: run.
But she soon realized that she couldn't escape.
Even if I run away this time, there will be another time.
As long as Long Defei wants to see himself, he must see himself.
So she has to face it actively rather than passively choose.
Having figured it out, Xue Xue held his temper, suppressed the irritability in his heart, and said to Luo Fei who was confused: "It's someone I know, let me catch up with you, go back to the dormitory first, don't wait for me."
Hearing this, Luo Fei's expression was still solemn.
From Xue Xue's reaction, she knew that these words were half-truths and half-false, most likely it was just a lie made up to make her feel at ease.
Luo Fei who opened his mouth to speak fell silent after Xue Xue shook his head at her.
I can feel Xue Xue's helplessness, and because of this, I am more suspicious of the identities of the two and the master they say.
But there is nothing you can do.
Xue Xue made it clear that she was going to go with them.
"Sure, then I'll go back to the dormitory first." Knowing that it's pointless and just a waste of time to continue in a stalemate, Luo Fei turned his head. "No, don't make me wait too long. If I don't come back too late and can't find anyone, I will call the police."
Her tone seemed to be joking, but her expression was serious.
Knowing that Luo Fei is using this hint to protect herself, Xue Xue's heart warms up.
"Yeah." She replied warmly, "I'll be back soon."
"Are you escorting prisoners?"
Xue Xue said abruptly and stopped at the same time.
The two men following her on the left and the right were all stunned.
"Didn't you realize how many people were looking at us at that 100-meter distance just now?" Xue Xuepi twitched the corner of his mouth with a non-smiling expression, with a cold expression. "Not to mention anything else, it feels suspicious to be dressed next to me, a female college student."
Hearing these words, the tall and thin man on the right frowned and wrinkled several times.
The chunky man on the left asked in a rough voice, "What do you mean?"
"Literally." Xue Xue shrugged. "Listen to my advice, be natural, otherwise the police may find you when you reach the school gate."
She paused.
"Also, you really don't need to look at me like the guardians, I can't run away, right? To make you so vigilant, tsk, I feel a bit overestimated."
Hearing this, the two looked at each other.
"Stop talking nonsense, let's go."
"Be gentle with beautiful women." The tall and thin man glared at his companion, and said kindly. "What you said makes sense, but the time is a bit urgent, so hurry up."
Although there was no positive response, they were no longer locked on their sides like copper and iron walls, but pulled out a distance, and their posture was more casual.
Xue Xue breathed a sigh of relief.
Before following the two into the car, she found an excuse to go to the bathroom, where she used the timer software to edit the text messages and save them in the draft box.
Although he didn't think there would be any danger to his life, Xue Xue still made two preparations. After all, Long Defei was a man with treacherous and changeable minds, and it was hard to guarantee that he would act irrationally if he was accidentally stimulated. There's nowhere to escape.
Caution is the boat.
For the risks that can be imagined, Xue Xue would not hesitate to pay more attention to them.
"It's been a while since you went."
After flushing, Xue Xue washed her hands carefully with hand sanitizer before walking out of the public restroom.
The two people who were waiting outside to smoke saw her come out, one stubbed out the cigarette, and the other walked away with a cigarette in its mouth.
Facing the suspected probing question, Xue Xue responded calmly.
"Physical period, I have to change something."
"Hmm." She didn't expect her to be so frank, the tall and thin man was taken aback, and then recovered from his companion's impatient urging. "You are quite interesting."
For descriptions with unclear meanings, Xue Xue always regarded them as compliments.
She smiled politely.
"Thanks, I think so too."
