When we passed by a supermarket, the class leader suggested that we should buy some fruits for Xiao Qin as a visitation gift.
The class leader filled two large plastic bags with lychees, peaches, bananas, and dates.
I wanted to pay but the class leader handed the two bags to me and said:
“As the younger brother, you’re only responsible for carrying the bags.”
The auntie at the counter happily received the money and said to the class leader:
“Miss, your younger brother’s really tall!”
The class leader bluntly grunted, “Yeah, he usually eats a lot.”
So you came here to take advantage of me! You’re not my keeper, how much I eat has nothing to do with you!
I left the supermarket with a stomach full of anger. I wanted to think of a way to get back at the class leader.
“Hey class leader, the stuff you bought is pretty strange!”
“How is it strange?”
The class leader walked in front of me like a shepherd.
“Lychees are red, peaches are yellow, dates are red, bananas are yellow… Did you just pick them based on color?”
“It’s a coincidence. All of these are foods that would warm you up and replenish energy. It’s good for Xiao Qin’s body.”
I found an opportunity to counterattack!
“Eh? You have experience with this! Does this mean that you get menstrual cram–”
I stopped halfway because I felt it was inappropriate. After all, it’s a pretty private matter for girls. Xiao Qin must have ruined my senses as she always messes around with me.
The class leader responded naturally: “I don’t get cramps, I just get a bit irritated and sometimes feel like hitting someone.”
I’ve learned from personal experience. Last time, you threw a blackboard eraser at me.
The class leader walked for a bit more before getting lost. It’s not surprising since red building north street was pretty hard to find. I also took a long time to find it the last time I came here.
I cockily walked forward to lead the way.
After I saw the four floored apartments, I looked at the class leader smugly.
The class leader said after a moment of realization: “Oh yeah, you’re her childhood friend, I should have let you lead the way…”
She then reached over and patted my head, “Good work, big sis will feed you some lychees later.”
Who wants your damn lychees! Don’t touch my head! What if I won’t grow taller anymore after you touched me?
I’m starting to hate my mother even more now. Other than the fact she abandoned her husband and son without a word, if she could have given birth to me a day earlier I wouldn’t be younger than Shu Sha!
We quickly reached the forth floor on the elevator. Xiao Qin opened the door immediately when she heard footsteps outside.
“Come in, come in! I’ve been waiting for you guys since I woke up!”
She didn’t greet me first, rather she pulled the class leader inside without further explanation.
On the outside, they looked like a pair of good sisters. Let’s just hope Xiao Qin wouldn’t secretly play tricks on the class leader.
Or is she still implementing the “I’m foolish and pure” plan and waiting until the class leader messes with her first?
What brainless logic nurtured through reading shoujo manga. Will she keep following the weird rule of “The one who harms others first will always lose”?
I guess it’s fine this way since I can never imagine the class leader scheming against others. On the contrary, Xiao Qin has a recalcitrant personality, she’s also ruthless. If she decided to conspire against the class leader, the class leader would probably vanish off the face of this earth.
Excluding Monday, it was already Xiao Qin’s fifth day of rest at home, so she looked very energetic. When we were removing our shoes, she stared at us the entire time searching for traces and clues.
There aren’t any suspicious points, but if you do misunderstand, I would be pretty happy since I’ve been worrying that I still haven’t initiated my womanizer plan!
The class leader placed her shoes neatly on the shoe rack. I noticed that although the shoe was kept in good condition, if you looked at the soles, the shoes was definitely worn out. There were multiple scratches and there was even a small crack on the bottom of the left shoe. It felt like it would fall off if you used too much strength to wear it.
Class leader, aren’t you being a bit too stingy for yourself! Ever if you don’t buy a new pair, you should at least fix your current pair of shoes! Why are you so generous when buying fruits for Xiao Qin? Didn’t you treat everyone to a drink when our class won the mountain climbing competition? I heard you didn’t use the class budget and spent your own savings instead.. No wonder Shu Zhe treats you as someone to not learn from! Even I think that you don’t know how to enjoy life!
Compared to the class leader’s sweater and jeans, Xiao Qin’s attire was a bit odd.
She wore a short-sleeved T-shirt (On the T-shirt was a cartoon alligator), a checkered pattern long skirt (The skirt was really long, it almost reached the ankles), and she tied a scarf around her waist to use as a belt. It kind of had a similar feel to native Indians or vagabonds.
Xiao Qin, who’s afraid of the cold, obviously wouldn’t be barefoot. She wore a pair of purple long socks under her skirt; it looked very warm.
I can’t really call her attire ugly, it had its own charms. But compared to the class leader, it felt childish.
The class leader’s attire was suitable for both indoors and outdoors, but Xiao Qin was dressed like an otaku, she was just missing a pair of glasses.
Was this a part of her “I’m foolish and pure” plan?
“Xiao Qin, aren’t you wearing a bit too less clothes?”
The class leader realized the high room temperature after her statement and she unconsciously rolled up the sleeves of her sweater.
Since we entered, Xiao Qin has only been taking care of the class leader.The two girls were sitting on the sofa, laughing and chatting, while I was pushed to a corner as if I was just a regular male representative.
I felt a bit odd, I wasn’t sure what plans Xiao Qin had up her sleeves.
“Ah, I forgot to make tea for you guys!”
Xiao Qin said as she stood up to head towards the kitchen.
The class leader stopped her, “I’ll go make it, you just rest.”
She left to prepare the tea after asking where the teapot and tea was kept.
Only Xiao Qin and I were left in the living room. I sat a bit far away form her and nervously looked at her.
“Ye Lin classmate is really perverted!”
Xiao Qin hugged her knees while talking out loud to herself.
“What are you saying!”
“You clearly already have me, yet you’re still planning something with the class leader…”
“Don’t speak so loudly!”
“But the class leader is partially to blame. She knows that Ye Lin classmate is a sexual deviant, but she still uses her body to seduce you….”
“You’re the only one who’s ever tried to seduce me with your body! What do you want!”
I was so mad that I didn’t deny the fact that I was a sexual deviant.
Xiao Qin stared at the ceiling while thinking, “The class leader definitely doesn’t have any good intentions by visiting me! Today, I’ll unmask her true identity!”
“She definitely poisoned those fruits! Gelsemium, white arsenic, the ones that draw blood… but if I pretend I didn’t notice and eat some fruits, once I start twitching and foaming, Ye Lin classmate will have to take responsibility and bring me to the hospital!”
Not necessary. If it was the poisons you just listed, there wouldn’t even be enough time to bring you to a hospital.
Xiao Qin clenched her fists and the more she talked the more spirited she became.
“Other than poison, the class leader will use various methods to plot against me. The most common method is spreading rumors about me behind my back… That’s why I’ll purposely give you two the chance to be alone…”
“Then the foolish Ye Lin classmate is incited by the class leader’s words. I’ll run away crying after you scold and distance away from me. This is an important plot turn, I would definitely be featured in an article!”
Do you think you’re the protagonist of a shoujo manga? Why would an article benefit you in any way whatsoever?
“Hmph humph humph.” A triumphant expression arose on Xiao Qin’s face, “I’ve read many manga, although the female protagonist will have a difficult period of time, once the misunderstanding is solved, the circumstances would change! The evil class leader will suffer the consequences of her actions. She would be crying alone outside the chapel while listening to our marriage music!”
At this moment, the class leader stuck out half her body from behind the kitchen’s glass sliding door, “Ye Lin, come here for a second, I have something to ask you.”
Xiao Qin sent me a meaningful glance, covered her mouth and laughed wickedly, she spoke in a quiet voice:
“How about it? As expected, she’s going to badmouth me.”
I glared at Xiao Qin and walked towards the kitchen to check out the situation.
