Chapter 356: Xu Yue’s Changed? Something Must Be Wrong!
“Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you.”
Xu Yue didn’t look back. Her voice was hoarse and her tone was somber.
It made the listener uncomfortable.
Tang Xinrou furrowed her brows and followed Song Yaoyao closely.
As Xu Yue led them to the entrance of the school, she found the guard’s room and knocked on the window.
“Huh? Miss Xu, do you need to go out again?”
Xu Yue smiled as she pulled out two red banknotes from her pocket and handed them over. “Uncle, my two friends are going out to buy something. I’m sure you can accommodate~”
The old man inside didn’t even look at Song Yaoyao and Tang Xinrou who were standing outside as he reached out his hand to touch the banknotes. Nodding quickly, he replied, “Sure, go early and return early, pay attention to your safety!”
“Oh, yes!”
Tang Xinrou: “...”
She and Song Yaoyao had struggled with the wall all morning, who knew there was such an easy and straightforward method to skip class...
Bribery...
One look and it was clear that Xu Yue did this often. Even the guard knew her well.
Xu Yue leaned against the wall as the wind swept past. She squinted and shrunk back her neck as she looked at Song Yaoyao. “It’s done. You can go out.”
The door beside the guard’s room was already open.
Tang Xinrou was surprised. “Xu Yue, you’re not planning to report us after we leave, right? If you do that, then that would be really cheap.”
“You’re making me sound really cheap.” Xu Yue spread her palms helplessly. “I’m not that bored. It’s cold. I’m heading back.”
She pulled on her hood and turned to return to the school building.
Song Yaoyao narrowed her eyes and looked at Xu Yue.
“Thanks.”
Without looking back, the girl waved her hand amidst the cold.
Even after they caught a taxi and left the school, Tang Xinrou still couldn’t understand why Xu Yue did what she did.
“Has she really been attracted by your unique charm? So she’s jumped camp?”
Song Yaoyao continued reading her book without looking up. “Imagine a traveler getting lost in the desert and someone giving them water just before they die, saving their life. What would you do if you were in their position?”
“I would definitely show my gratitude!” Tang Xinrou replied without thinking. After saying this, she paused for a moment. “But... How is this related to Xu Yue’s change?”
“What if the person who saved her was her enemy?”
“Then it depends on how deep their grudge was... Wait a minute!” Tang Xinrou finally realized what was happening. “Did you save her? Is she showing her gratitude right now?”
“Yes...”
Although Tang Xinrou wasn’t completely right, it was close enough.
Xu Yue ended up the way that she was because she asked for it. Even though she detested Song Yaoyao at first and wanted to get revenge when she got out, the passing days made her feel hopeless like she was waiting for her death, so when Song Yaoyao showed up, it was a natural psychological response.
If she could take her out of that frightening place, she would instinctively feel safe whenever she saw her.
It felt as though she would never return to that place as long as Song Yaoyao was around.
“Okay, Precious, you’re becoming more and more mysterious. I guess this is the difference between a genius and an average person!”
After Tang Xinrou sighed, she asked, “May I ask where we are going now?”
“To the hospital.”
...
“Hey, it’s Christmas already. How much longer are you planning to lie here?”
It had already been two months since Song Wenchuan’s accident. Thanks to Song Yaoyao’s regular treatment, the blood clot in his brain had dispersed.
