Chapter 132

"William, come on again!"

"No... I can't... I'm gonna puke!"

William Wei covered his mouth, his face turning red.

"Don't stop, we haven't finished this round yet!"

"Don't play dead, get up!!"

The boys took turns to toast him, each with a bottle.

"I... I need to go to the bathroom..."

"We'll wait for you!"

"Two of you go with him, don't let him run away!"

"..."

He stood up with a slightly exhausted body and swayed towards the bathroom.

Even if he had a good tolerance for alcohol, he couldn't withstand the relentless attack of over twenty energetic high school boys...

It would be really embarrassing if he ended up unconscious and had to be taken to the hospital.

Now I think about it,

Is being a homeroom teacher really such a high-risk profession...

...

"This is too dangerous..."

Bell Tong sat at the dining table, propping her chin and looking at William Wei, whispering.

"I hope Teacher Wei is okay... Should we go and check on him?"

Roxie Lin said anxiously, standing up.

"Lin... Roxie Lin mei zi~"

"Huh?!"

At this time, a boy suddenly sat down next to her.

He reached out and placed his hand on her shoulder.

"Come on! Have a drink~"

The boy said with a flushed face, filling her cup with alcohol.

"I... I'm not really good at drinking..."

"No, it's no~~ problem! I... I'll teach you!"

This boy looked quite drunk, slurring his words...

"But..."

"Just drink~ After today, our class will disperse, who knows when we'll see each other again!"

Another boy joined the persuasion.

So close...

The pungent smell of alcohol emanated from them.

"Well, we've spent three years as classmates, don't be so disheartened~~"

"..."

If she didn't drink after they had said so much, it would seem like she was heartless towards her classmates...

"Um..."

She hesitated for a moment.

Closed her eyes and poured a cup of alcohol down her throat.

"Cough, cough!"

She almost choked and nearly had beer coming out of her nose...

"Haha, that's right~"

"You can drink well!"

"Another one!"

"Huh?!"

"Hehehe~"

The boys became even more enthusiastic, sticking out their tongues and crowding around her.

"Xiao Ling..."

While she stepped back, she looked towards Bell Tong, who was standing by her side, with despair.

"Ah..."

Bell Tong propped her chin and let out a soft sigh, shaking her head.

"I'm telling you~"

She spoke softly.

The boys immediately froze in place, as if they were petrified.

"Don't you guys understand the rules?"

"..."

Intimidated by Bell Tong's authority, several boys suddenly fell silent.

"Ha ha, we were just..."

"Please, this person is quite expensive, you know~"

"Sorry... Huh?"

The boys were momentarily stunned, thinking they heard wrong, and stood there staring at each other.

"Accompanying drinks~ costs about this much~"

Bell Tong said, extending five fingers.

"You still need money?"

"50?"

"500"

"Huh? That's too expensive!"

"Make it cheaper!"

"That's right!!"

"But wait..."

Roxie Lin felt that something was off, but couldn't find a way to intervene...

...

"Do you guys even understand? This is the going rate for high school girls nowadays~ And also..."

Bell Tong said, smirking and lowering her voice.

"Let me tell you~ If you pay enough, there will be all kinds of special services~"

"All kinds of..."

"Yes, all kinds of~"

"..."

All the boys turned their heads and looked at Roxie Lin, who was hiding on the side.Swallowing saliva.

...

A brief pause.

"Wait... what did you say, Xiaoling!"

Roxie Lin panicked.

"Well, if you don't mind..."

At this moment, a boy took out several bills from his pocket.

Sure enough...

"Wait... those are all Xiaoling's nonsense!"

She blushed instantly, gesturing frantically, trying to explain.

"Not enough? Then..."

Another boy even took out a bank card from his bag.

"..."

She was speechless.

Stood up silently.

"Xiaoling, you idiot!!!"

Covering her face, she ran outside.

"Wait... it was just a joke~"

"Big idiot!!!"

...

...

"Raina Nan, have you decided which school to apply to?"

"Me? Not yet..."

"So jealous~ with your grades, you can choose any school..."

A girl leaned on the railing outside the store, sighing weakly.

"It's not that easy..."

She looked up, gazing at the faint moon in the night sky, murmuring softly.

"If only I could go to the same university as you..."

"Why...?"

"Why? Well..."

The girl thought for a moment, then smiled.

"I also want to perform a stage play with you again. I'll play Zhu Yingtai, and you'll play Liang Shanbo. How about it?"

"Please don't mention it..."

Now all the embarrassing memories came flooding back...

I had almost forgotten about them...

...

"Raina Nan, you're still here."

At this moment, a voice came from behind.

"..."

She turned around.

It was Gu Zihang...

His face was slightly reddened, as if he had been drinking.

"Do you need something?"

"Ah? Yeah, kind of..."

He scratched his cheek and glanced to the side.

After speaking, the three of them just stood there dumbfounded...

...

"Um... I'm going inside to get a glass of juice."

The girl seemed to understand something, glanced at him, and then turned and walked towards the store.

"..."

Now only the two of them were left.

The terrace outside the shop was already quiet at this time.

There were a few coffee tables scattered around, but not many people.

On such a hot day, not many people would want to sit outside and drink coffee.

...

"Raina Nan."

Gu Zihang spoke first.

As he spoke, he walked up to her.

"There's something I want to tell you."

"..."

Raina Nan didn't look at him, she remained silent, not speaking.

"To be honest, I wanted to say it to you last year at Lanhe Temple, but it seemed like someone messed it up midway..."

He shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"..."

"But... I still couldn't let it go..."

"Well..."

"Raina Nan."

He interrupted her.

"Can you look at me?"

"..."

She hesitated for a moment, then raised her head and looked at him.

"Hehe~"

He smiled foolishly.

"Do you know? Every time I looked at you like this before, you always looked away... honestly, it hurt me a lot~"

"..."

She remained silent, glancing to the side slightly.

"Is there something?"

"Oh, here you go again."

"..."

Being reminded like that, she realized something, hesitated, and looked at him again.

"Sorry, I didn't mean it like that..."

She said softly.

It wasn't intentional to ignore or anything... maybe it was just a habit of hers.

But in the end, only she was completely oblivious to it...

...

"Haha, I don't mind~"

He laughed and then quickly restrained his smile.

"And then... it's about what I wanted to say to you just now...""……"

The air seemed to have quieted down.

Unexplainably, she also became nervous...

...

...

"Don't be mad, it was just a joke~"

"Shh!"

Bell Tong chased after Roxie Lin as they ran out, only to find her hiding sneakily by the wall.

"...What's wrong?"

"..."

Bell Tong followed her gaze and noticed Raina Nan and Gu Zihang standing there, having a conversation.

"I like you!"

"..."

...

"Wow, that's direct!... Did that guy really say that?"

Bell Tong looked at the awkward two people across from her with surprise.

"..."

Roxie Lin opened her mouth slightly, then took out her phone after a moment.

"What are you doing?"

Bell Tong looked at her curiously.

"Quickly, tell Nan-gege!"

"Huh?!"

Bell Tong snatched her phone right away.

"Are you crazy?"

"Give it back!"

She tried to lower her voice as much as possible, not wanting others to hear. While at it, she reached out to snatch her phone back.

"This is Rain Rain's business, why are you meddling?"

"Rain Rain's business is my business too!"

She couldn't help but shout out.

"Quiet down! Idiot!"

"Give it back to me!"

"Alright, alright, I'll give it back!"

"What are you... doing?"

At this moment, a voice came from beside them.

The two of them looked up abruptly.

Only to find Raina Nan standing right in front of them.

Oh no...

"We, we're...doing nothing..."

Bell Tong quickly squinted her eyes, pretended to be calm, and gave a faint smile.

"We... were wrestling~ Yeah, wrestling~"

"Wrestling?"

She looked at the tangled two of them skeptically.

"Rain Rain, sorry! We didn't mean to eavesdrop!"

"Hey...are you an idiot..."

Bell Tong facepalmed. How did this person confess without even getting hit...

"..."

Raina Nan was stunned for a moment, probably realizing something, and slightly turned her face to the side.

She didn't say anything.

"Where... is he?"

Roxie Lin stretched her neck, looking around, only then did she notice Gu Zihang had already left.

"He's already gone..."

"Did you agree to him?!"

She asked excitedly, grabbing Raina Nan's hand.

"..."

Raina Nan remained silent for a while, then gently shook her head.

"Great..."

She seemed relieved, patting her chest.

"Great?"

Raina Nan tilted her head and looked at her.

"Yeah, I said that on behalf of Nan-gege. Now he can finally be at ease."

"..."

She paused for a moment.

"What are you talking about..."

Saying that, she covered her slightly warm cheeks with her wrist and turned around.

"..."

Bell Tong silently looked at them from behind, not saying a word.

...

"I, I'm going in first..."

After Raina Nan finished speaking, she looked somewhat flustered and hurriedly walked towards the front.

...

...

"Let's go get something to eat too~ They have the pineapple pie that Little Ling likes over there."

"Is it really okay to do that?"

Bell Tong's voice interrupted her thoughts.

Roxie Lin took a couple of steps, then stopped in her tracks.

"What are you talking about, Little Ling? If we don't hurry..."

"Did you call him last Christmas too?"

She interrupted her words, asking in a low voice.

"..."

"Do you think doing this really helps Rain Rain?"

"...What does that have to do with Little Ling?"She still smiled with her eyes squinted.

"......"

Bell Tong stood in place, not saying anything.

The hot air swirled around her cheeks, refusing to leave for a while.

Long silence.

Quiet, unsettling...

......

"Xiao Ling."

She finally couldn't hold it in and spoke up.

Half a second pause.

"You're siding with Xiao Yu, aren't you?"

She turned her back to Bell Tong.

Her voice trembled weakly, as if eager to confirm something.

......

The clamor of people in the distance amplified the silence infinitely.

Even the sound of breathing was clearly audible.

......

......

"Yu Yu, she..."

Bell Tong stood behind her, silent for a moment before speaking softly.

"She has no idea how dangerous the game she's playing is."

As she said this, she walked past Roxie Lin.

......

"Are you the same?"

......
