Huo Jinyu returned to his seat with brisk steps, as if the words that shocked the whole audience were not said by him, and as if he did not see the pairs of "Fuck", "How is this possible", "Is this true" and other looks in the classroom that were begging for advice.
As the instigator and troublemaker of this incident, Huo Jinyu had no other psychological burden at all and sat down calmly.
After sitting down, he threw a tube of ointment on the desk in front of Jiang Qingzhou: "Apply it once in the morning and once in the evening, the swelling should be gone by tomorrow."
Jiang Qingzhou blinked twice quickly to confirm, then realized belatedly that Huo Jinyu had gone out to buy him some ointment. Was that too thoughtful? Is there any villain like this
She is pretty, rich, generous, and listens to advice. She tells him not to mess with the male lead, and she sits quietly playing games during breaks, not going anywhere.
"Thank you, classmate Huo." Jiang Qingzhou picked up the ointment, his eyebrows curved and a smile bloomed on his lips.
Huo Jinyu stared at it intently, and in an instant, he felt that his vision became much brighter.
A few minutes passed, and Huo Jinyu poked Jiang Qingzhou's arm with his finger, frowned and asked, "Why don't you apply it?"
"I'll apply it after school." Jiang Qingzhou whispered. He didn't want to do any unnecessary movements during class, and he didn't have a mirror with him, so he couldn't see himself and ended up with ointment all over his face.
"Bring the ointment."
Jiang Qingzhou had just taken out the ointment when Huo Jinyu came over, twisted it open, squeezed a little ointment on her fingertips, and said to Jiang Qingzhou, "Come closer to me."
Jiang Qingzhou hesitated for only a second, held the book upright to cover as much as possible, and then moved his face towards Huo Jinyu.
It was done secretly, just like an underground party meeting.
Huo Jinyu applied the ointment on the obvious red spot on Jiang Qingzhou's face, and rubbed the ointment with her fingers in circles: "I don't think I used much strength, why is your face so red?"
Jiang Qingzhou pursed his lips and explained to the young master: "It has nothing to do with you. My skin is more... sensitive. The skin around me will be bruised, red and swollen if I stumble a little bit."
After hearing this, Huo Jinyu commented, "She's too delicate." Although she said that, the strength of the hand applying the ointment became a little lighter.
The cool mint scent fills the nose.
While Huo Jinyu was applying ointment to him, Jiang Qingzhou asked curiously, "Did you just call Professor Xu...brother-in-law?"
Huo Jinyu corrected: "To be precise, it's my cousin's brother-in-law."
Your circle is so chaotic.
Jiang Qingzhou exclaimed, never expecting that Professor Xu was actually Huo Jinyu's brother-in-law: "So, according to seniority, Professor Xu should call you... Uncle, Uncle?"
Huo Jinyu raised an eyebrow: "My mother was pregnant with a pearl from an old clam, you should know this."
Jiang Qingzhou nodded hesitantly: "... I know a little."
As the male villain who loves the heroine but cannot win her heart, Huo Jinyu's family background is described several times in the novel.
The Huo family is a large family, one of the wealthy and old-established families in Kyoto. Some of the Huo family's descendants hold important positions in politics, while others are influential in the business world.
Huo Jinyu was born when the old lady of the Huo family was nearly fifty years old. As the youngest child in the family, it is conceivable that Huo Jinyu was almost destined to be the darling of the Huo family from the moment he was born.
He has three older brothers and two older sisters who have already started their own families, and a bunch of nephews and nieces who are older than him but one generation younger than him.
"Just know it, Xu Zhiqing is my eldest brother's second son-in-law." Huo Jinyu rolled his eyes and said, "If you insist on finding fault in public, let his uncle knock on the door and report it, and then go back to reason with my second niece."
Jiang Qingzhou listened to Huo Jinyu's rogue tone of looking for trouble, and got a headache as usual: "Mr. Huo, at home, you are Professor Xu's uncle. But at school, Professor Xu is your teacher. It's your fault for being late for class. Professor Xu..."
Huo Jinyu interrupted Jiang Qingzhou and retorted angrily: "Why am I late for class? Don't you know what's going on?"
Jiang Qingzhou: "..."
"You little ungrateful bastard." Huo Jinyu pinched Jiang Qingzhou's flawless white face again, firstly to wipe his hands, and secondly to vent his anger.
However, the force of the exhalation was very light, almost no effort was used.
After doing that, he leaned back in the chair, took out his phone and opened the game interface in one go.
Jiang Qingzhou touched his cheek and felt no ointment, it was very dry.
"—Welcome back to the Age of Navigation, my master, let us set out to conquer the sea of stars—"
The official announcement of the system game successfully made Huo Jinyu the focus of the classroom again. The air was silent for a few seconds, and multiple coughs were heard one after another.
The classmates looked towards Huo Jinyu one by one.
Professor Xu, because of Huo Jinyu's previous rather explosive call of "brother-in-law", pretended not to hear it this time and continued with his class.
He didn't want that devil to blow up his classroom again.
Jiang Qingzhou held his forehead and sighed: "Where are your headphones?"
"You must have fallen into the classroom." Huo Jinyu said, "I'll turn down the volume so as not to disturb you in class."
How could it not be noisy? Even with the volume turned down to the minimum, Jiang Qingzhou could still hear the background noise of the game. His head hurt even more: "You will affect Professor Xu's class." It will also affect other students who are attending the class.
"He does his thing, I do mine, they have nothing to do with each other."
Just as Jiang Qingzhou was about to take the phone from Huo Jinyu's hand, a pair of Bluetooth headphones was handed to him by a female classmate at the table next to him. The female classmate said, "New, never used before."
Jiang Qingzhou was sitting outside. He took it with his hand and said with a gentle smile, "Thank you."
The female classmate blushed slightly and replied, "No, you're welcome."
Jiang Qingzhou handed over the headphones, but Huo Jinyu refused: "I don't need other people's headphones."
"This is new." Jiang Qingzhou emphasized the last two words.
"Even new ones won't work."
"Student Huo, can you please be reasonable? This is a classroom."
"No!" Huo Jinyu looked away from the phone, and his voice suddenly rose, "You are so brave that you dare to yell at me."
Jiang Qingzhou looked at Huo Jinyu steadily, first returned the Bluetooth headset to the female student, then suddenly raised his hand and stood up and said, "Professor, I suddenly feel a headache. Can I ask the student next to me to take me to the infirmary?"
Professor Xu was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
Huo Jinyu refused outright: "I won't go."
Jiang Qingzhou directly grabbed one of Huo Jinyu's arms and held him tightly, half dragging and half pulling him out of the classroom.
As soon as they left the classroom, Huo Jinyu pushed Jiang Qingzhou roughly against the wall with his backhand. His tone was extremely violent and flammable, like a string of lit firecrackers that could explode at any time and anywhere.
"Jiang Qingzhou! I didn't agree to go to the infirmary with you."
I've used all of them. Needless to say, Huo Jinyu was already on the verge of a rage.
His back hit the wall hard, and the intense and spreading pain made Jiang Qingzhou groan, but his expression did not change at all. He said calmly: "I know you don't want to go to class."
“…Which eye of yours saw that I didn’t want to go to class anymore.”
Jiang Qingzhou cooperated and blinked at Huo Jinyu: "I saw it with both eyes."
Huo Jinyu was speechless for a moment, looking at the pair of big eyes that blinked at him, round and watery, with thick and curled eyelashes like two small electric feather brushes, which brushed and aroused a slight numbing electric resonance along the spine of his back.
The anger in my chest was extinguished without a trace in an instant with a "puff". My beating heart suddenly tightened, and I had an inexplicable feeling.
Jiang Qingzhou took advantage of the situation and pulled down Huo Jinyu's hand that was leaning against the wall near his neck, and smiled gently: "I'll go with you to relax, classmate Huo."
So good! So soft! So cute... A little white rabbit. These thoughts quickly flashed through Huo Jinyu's mind, and he let the little white rabbit pull him to a quiet grove.
After calming down, Huo Jinyu looked at the rows of flowers, grass, and trees around him, and pulled Jiang Qingzhou's hand that was holding his wrist: "Didn't you say you wanted to go to the infirmary for your headache?"
Jiang Qingzhou paused, tilted his head slightly, and chuckled, "Student Huo, you can't fail to hear that that's an excuse, right?"
Although she understood what Jiang Qingzhou said, she didn't expect him to be so frank and honest. Huo Jinyu seemed to sense Jiang Qingzhou's joy and said, "A top student like you would lie and skip classes?"
"Who am I doing this for?" Jiang Qingzhou returned the question, his eyes behind the lenses fixed firmly on Huo Jinyu, and the who was who was self-evident.
For the first time in her life, Huo Jinyu remained silent.
Jiang Qingzhou paused and said seriously, "Your behavior has affected other students' normal classes, Mr. Huo."
Huo Jinyu suddenly approached Jiang Qingzhou, and asked in a deep voice: "Then why didn't you bring my headphones with you? My... deskmate. - Hmm?"
Jiang Qingzhou: “.”
Jiang Qingzhou was choked by Huo Jinyu's words. He wanted to say, "Can't you bring your own things?" But then he thought of his own identity and thought carefully. There was nothing wrong with what Huo Jinyu said. In theory, it should be his responsibility.
"It's my fault. I'll remember it next time." He definitely wouldn't forget his headphones. If this didn't happen every day, who could stand it
Huo Jinyu shrugged, with that romantic and unruly face, and said seriously: "It's your fault in the first place."
Jiang Qingzhou rolled his eyes at Huo Jinyu.
Dare you stare at me? Yo... The little white rabbit stretched out its claws. Huo Jinyu poked Jiang Qingzhou's right cheek with her finger, showing a very bad taste.
Jiang Qingzhou loosened his grip on Huo Jinyu's wrist and patted the back of Huo Jinyu's hand: "What are you doing?"
"I applied the ointment, but you don't allow me to use it anymore." Huo Jinyu spoke first, and his words were justified.
What are you wiping? It's obviously poking. Jiang Qingzhou rolled his eyes to the sky. He had never seen such a childish person. At the same time, he stepped back to distance himself from Huo Jinyu.
The little white rabbit was furious. Huo Jinyu clicked his tongue, put his hands in his trouser pockets, bent one of his long legs and kicked a crooked grass under his feet out of boredom. He said lazily, "Didn't you say you would accompany me to relax? Why don't you go?"
Jiang Qingzhou thought for a moment and said, "Would you like to eat? I'll treat you."
As a courtesy, Jiang Qingzhou felt that he should also invite Huo Jinyu to dinner.
"Okay. But I'll decide the location." Huo Jinyu curled his lips and smiled, and there was an indescribable evil in that smile.
Jiang Qingzhou felt something was wrong.
