Chapter 226 : Don't Steal My Sister Rou!
Chapter 226 : Don't Steal My Sister Rou!
It was noon, the mealtime rush. Combined with most people hurrying through exams, the street at the north gate was very crowded, with constant noise and a strong aroma of food.
Along the way, Qin Xue led Su Yun around groups of people. The two little ones behind them followed closely, then they found an open-air seat adjacent to the street and sat down.
Qin Xue went inside alone to order food, while Su Yun sat blankly in her seat as if remembering something.
She didn't hesitate and tossed the white small bag on the seat beside her to the neighboring table.
That was Qin Xue's bag.
"Xia Rou, come sit here."
"Huh?"
Xia Rou blinked at Su Yun dazedly, forced to let go of the hand tightly clasped in hers, and obediently sat beside Su Yun.
"You actually want to steal my Sister Rou from me!"
Behind Su Yun, a petite girl jumped in place angrily, standing on her tiptoes to pounce on Su Yun's back. The way her hands wrapped around the neck looked like she wanted to bite her to death.
"Oops, potato."
Su Yun, preoccupied with thoughts about Xia Rou's brother, reached out and gently tapped the little head that came close.
"Hng..."
Who knew that just one light tap would instantly cause Qin Yuanyuan's eyes to well up with tears. "Sister Rou, she's bullying me."
This startled Su Yun.
No... it had been so long. She had forgotten that this little potato loved to cry.
"Wah wah wah!"
Qin Yuanyuan, dressed in fluffy clothing like a little lamb, stood behind Su Yun rubbing her eyes and started crying.
Wah wah, this Su Xiaoyun not only stole Sister Xue from her before, now she wants to steal Sister Rou too! And she even hit her!!
Wah wah wah!
The restaurant was full of people. They had barely managed to relax while eating when they heard this noisy crying. They all looked out to the open-air area outside with bad moods.
They originally thought it was a child, but seeing the cute-faced girl who just looked young—a female college student—they couldn't help but bring out their gossip-watching eyes.
Though it wasn't some bloody drama about being abandoned by a boyfriend. The junior was surrounded by girls.
"You... stop crying, okay? I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Su Yun quickly grabbed Qin Yuanyuan's hand that was wiping her eyes. As she pulled it down, she found the other's eyes were red, and her eye sockets were covered with transparent liquid, looking pitiful.
"Don't steal my Sister Rou!"
"?"
Qin Yuanyuan gave Su Yun a punch to the chest, then quickly pulled Xia Rou's hand and sat down. She pressed her head tightly against Xia Rou's soft, fluffy chest and buried herself in crying.
"Sister Rou, don't play with her. She's a bad person."
The way she was crying made Xia Rou, who was being tightly hugged, confused.
She lowered her voice and gently stroked Qin Yuanyuan's head: "Okay okay, I won't play with her. Yuanyuan, stop crying, okay? Pat pat~"
"..."
Su Yun stood to the side with a helpless expression. She could feel all the burning gazes from people in the restaurant, making it seem like she was bullying a child.
Now, the other people in the restaurant's gazes were indeed all on Su Yun, but their thoughts weren't that she was bullying anyone. Rather, they felt a warm sense of an older sister taking care of a younger sister, but not doing well enough, so the younger sister went to find another sister.
And they were quite envious of this younger sister, because the girl that younger sister was nestled against didn't have an overly full figure, but at least had nice curves. Combined with the girl's delicate features and gentle smile, she was already prettier than the class flowers of most computer science classes.
They wanted to nestle in too.
As they watched, the food on their tables somehow seemed to smell better. They ate frantically.
"What's wrong with you guys?"
"Uh, nothing..."
Su Yun was forced to sit on the other side. When Qin Xue came back, she indeed had a puzzled expression.
When Qin Xue was ordering inside the restaurant, she had heard her younger sister's cries, but when she turned to look, there was only Xia Rou and Su Xiaoyun beside Qin Yuanyuan.
She figured her sister must have been fussing and crying on her own, so she didn't pay attention.
"Hmph."
Qin Yuanyuan's big eyes stared round and wide. She glared resentfully at Su Yun while tightly hugging Xia Rou's arm with her hand.
"..."
This stinky potato.
Because of Qin Yuanyuan, afterward Su Yun could only catch up with Xia Rou when she went to the teaching building to pick flowers to ask for her WeChat. The awkwardness of being blocked at the bathroom door was indescribable.
(PS: Picking flowers means going to the bathroom)
The school's afternoon exam was at 1:30 PM, and math was a two-hour exam from 1:30 to 3:30.
Since Su Yun's home was far from the exam location, it would take half an hour round trip. Not to mention Qin Yuanyuan who lived near the city center. So they all decided not to go home and rested or reviewed in the small garden in the middle of the teaching district.
Later, everyone was lying on stone tables preparing for a short nap, while Su Yun quietly gazed at Qin Xue's peaceful, beautiful profile.
She reached out her hand and gently poked the other's soft cheek.
Because a young girl's cheek was tender and elastic, Su Yun's finger sank right in, then bounced back out, just like how she secretly touched the cotton candy at night.
Of course, at school, that kind of thing was out of the question.
Su Yun rested her cheeks on her hands, smiling as she looked at Qin Xue: "Pig."
......
The math exam ended at 3:30 PM in the afternoon. Su Yun also turned in her paper an hour early.
But when she came to the air raid shelter clearing again, she was surprised to discover that it had become an empty space. Besides the gray dust covering the ground, there was nothing else.
"Huh? Where are the cars?"
Su Yun, relying on her memory of the location, came to a certain spot in the center.
Looking down, she found tire marks still remaining on the ground.
This was definitely the place.
Then Su Yun followed those marks until she exited the air raid shelter. Outside it became a gravel road, and the marks disappeared.
It was obvious the car had driven away.
What a guy, so those broken cars could still run. So given the current situation, they were discovered?
"..."
Su Yun instantly imagined the scene. Those people discovered the guns hidden in the car were gone, and immediately panicked, flying around frantically, urgently driving the car away. They were definitely cursing her as they left.
Though the image should be pretty funny, it also meant the clues were gone. Those people would be even more cautious now.
They probably wouldn't give up on this easily.
Su Yun silently returned to the small garden where she had stayed at noon. She took out her phone and dialed a string of numbers. This was what Xia Rou had given her.
"Beep... beep..."
Then she made a total of six calls, but the other didn't answer any of them. WeChat was even worse—still pending approval.
Was this person that busy?
Su Yun lowered her head and sighed. With her information and energy, it was basically impossible to solve this situation alone. And Xia Rou's brother seemed to already know something. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said they were in danger.
When the afternoon math exam ended, crowds surged. The school instantly filled with the voices of young people.
But this time compared to the morning, most people's tones were much more depressed. Because this math exam was too difficult. It was as if the teachers had conspired together to pull off something big.
Su Yun still stood to the left of the Erudition Building, craning her neck to look for Qin Xue in the crowd pouring out of the entrance.
She didn't see her at first. She thought maybe Qin Xue didn't want to squeeze through people, but after the entrance had fewer people and she still didn't see her figure, it seemed strange.
Where is Sister Xue?
Looking at the sparse crowd at the entrance, it felt like everyone inside had almost left.
Su Yun was worried and walked into the Erudition Building. When she was about to go up the stairs, she happened to see a pair of long legs coming down from above.
Hey, it's Sister Xue... but why does her complexion look so bad?
