Qiu Zhenyang’s aura was too strong. Wang Shuo opened his mouth and could only stammer out: “It’s clearly him…”
Ling Mu was so angry at this moment, he grabbed Qiu Zhenyang’s arm and tried to pull him away. “You get out of the way. I’ll do it myself, I’m going to beat this idiot to death!”
Qiu Zhenyang, who was enraged a moment ago, immediately softened his stance when Ling Mu pulled him. Turning his head helplessly, he looked at the angry Ling Mu who hadn’t managed to pull him away after a long time. “Calm down, this kind of idiot is not worth you making a move. Let me do it.”
His doting tone was completely different from the one earlier. Let alone Ling Mu, even Wang Shuo was astonished. The others at the table looked at each other in dismay.
“Damn, what the hell…”
Wang Shuo felt he lost all face. Not only was he scolded by Ling Mu, but he couldn’t do anything to Qiu Zhenyang either.
The beta Xia Wen, who had complained about Cheng An’an earlier, stood up and looked at Qiu Zhenyang anxiously. “Okay, okay, let go. When the teacher sees us fighting, no one will walk away scot free.”
The other beta who didn’t dare speak yet also spoke a few words of persuasion. After all, it was a group cooperation, and fighting like this was really unbecoming.
Cheng An’an hurriedly apologized: “It’s all my fault. I won’t touch the mecha, and will stand by and watch you guys. Is that alright?”
Qiu Zhenyang didn’t bother looking at Cheng An’an, and simply ignored him. Cheng An’an, who didn’t get a response, froze, and bit his lips in embarrassment.
The atmosphere was at a stalemate for a long while because Qiu Zhenyang didn’t want to let Wang Shuo go. In the end, Ling Mu was the first to step down and patted Qiu Zhenyang on the shoulder. “It’s okay, let go.”
Mecha is his favorite course topic, and he doesn’t want to make the teacher have a bad impression of him because of these bastards. But if these idiots continue making trouble, he will never let them go.
After Ling Mu spoke, Qiu Zhenyang immediately let go and gave Wang Shuo a warning look. The latter didn’t dare to provoke him either, and returned to his seat in despair.
When the teacher passed their desk to check the situation, everything seemed calm.
After the teacher left, Cheng An’an struggled for a while before getting closer to Qiu Zhenyang and asking affectionately, “Qiu Zhenyang, I remember you didn’t like mechas before. Why did you choose this class?”
Qiu Zhenyang gave him a sideways glance: “I like it now, can’t I?”
“Of course it is,” Cheng An’an smiled, but his eyes were a little lonely. “I understand that people can change, whether it is likes or feelings, after all, there are too many uncertain factors.”
Everyone’s expressions became a little subtle. The meaning in his words was too obvious.
Not fearing death, Wang Shuo butted in once more: “No uncertain factor can compare to a shameless person! There are always some people who act aggressive and are willing to do anything for money!”
Ling Mu didn’t respond; he had a clear conscience. There is no need to pay attention to such low-level people.
Qiu Zhenyang sneered. The moment his eyes swept over, Wang Shuo lowered his head cowardly.
“You’re right, to be a human being, one needs to have a little face. When I was young, I thought that face was everything, but now I know that it’s still best to look at one’s heart when picking a partner. Some people look good on the surface, but in fact, stinks all over, and uses others to achieve his own means; these people are the most shameless.”
After that, Qiu Zhenyang gave Cheng An’an a meaningful look.
The latter was so stiff that he couldn’t squeeze out a smile. He took a deep breath and met Qiu Zhenyang’s gaze: “I didn’t expect you to look at me like this.”
The people in the group didn’t dare to move. They could only look at Qiu Zhenyang and Cheng An’an awkwardly.
Ling Mu’s hand movements studying the mecha also stopped. He never knew why Qiu Zhenyang suddenly changed his target and became more attentive towards him. He always thought he was playing tricks on him, but what happened now made Ling Mu look at Qiu Zhenyang once more.
This man really doesn’t seem to have lied to him.
“It doesn’t matter what I think of you. What matters is what you’ve done, and whether you have a clear conscience.”
There was no smile on his face as Qiu Zhenyang looked at Cheng An’an with alienation and disgust. Ling Mu had once experienced this look when he broke off the engagement in person – it was extremely cold and chilling.
But since the school entrance exam, Qiu Zhenyang never looked at him with this look again. All that was left were playful, caring eyes.
Utterly different from the one Qiu Zhenyang gave to Cheng An’an now.
Cheng An’an did not speak anymore, but just looked at Qiu Zhenyang. Tears gradually welled in his eyes, but he stubbornly refused to let them fall, and his red eyes were full of disappointment.
The class bell rang, breaking the silence.
“Let’s go, Ling Mu.” Ignoring Cheng An’an, Qiu Zhenyang picked up his backpack, threw it on his shoulder, and grabbed Ling Mu’s hand.
“F*ck, Qiu Zhenyang, let me go!” Ling Mu struggled as he walked, but unfortunately he couldn’t break free and was dragged away.
There were too many people in the teaching building. Because of Qiu Zhenyang’s move, Ling Mu felt all kinds of eyes watching him, and was about to lose his temper.
“I’ll hit you here if you don’t f*cking let go!”
Knowing that Ling Mu was thin-skinned, Qiu Zhenyang could only let go first. But he took advantage of his physique to stick tightly to Ling Mu’s side, and even stretched his arms around him. He didn’t let others approach and squeeze Ling Mu.
“What would you like to eat at noon?”
Now that there is no need to go to the cafeteria to eat, Qiu Zhenyang and Ling Mu went back to the dormitory.
“Whatever.”
Ling Mu has very low requirements for food; after all, he used to take nutritional supplements.
However, Qiu Zhenyang had some ideas. When Ling Mu was in his arms before, he felt that Ling Mu was so thin that he was almost all bones. Because of this, nutrition is the most important thing – he must fatten up Ling Mu first!
Qiu Zhenyang protected Ling Mu as they followed the crowd downstairs. Not long after they left the teaching building, two people stood in front of Qiu Zhenyang.
“Class- classmate Qiu, I have something to tell you!”
Two omegas blocked Qiu Zhenyang. The one who spoke was a girl with neat bangs, and looked a little cute with her gentle and well-behaved appearance.
Ling Mu glanced at Qiu Zhenyang, then freed the hand wrapped around his waist and left.
“Hey Ling Mu, wait…” Qiu Zhenyang was about to chase after him, and gasped when his hand was hit.
It hurts! He’s definitely not happy! Ah!
“Classmate Qiu!” The companion of the girl with bangs stepped out and blocked Qiu Zhenyang’s path, with a gesture of pleading. “Wait, can you listen to Xiaoxiang first?”
Qiu Zhenyang reached out and wanted to pull Ling Mu, but he could only clench his empty hands. He looked down at the girl named Xiaoxiang: “Tell me.”
“Classmate Qiu, my name is Lin Xiang, I’m a student in the O2 class. I… fell in love with you during the military training. Although I don’t expect to be with you, can we exchange contact information, and can I invite you out for a meal occasionally?”
Qiu Zhenyang looked at the man in front of him. The girl is obviously a very shy person, and probably only had the courage to confess because of her companion’s encouragement.
Thinking that a second person had already confessed to him not long after school started, Qiu Zhenyang felt deeply powerless.
He pulled the shoulder bag on his shoulders and shook his head apologetically. “I’m sorry, I already have someone I like. I don’t want my sweetheart to get further away from me due to ambiguous acts with other people.”
Qiu Zhenyang had nothing more to add, so he simply staggered away.
He has already said everything clearly, to the point where a fool can understand it. There is no need to say anything else.
Now that he’s identified Ling Mu, he will never allow himself to be stopped by anyone.
When he returned to the dormitory, Ling Mu was cutting something in the kitchen.
Qiu Zhenyang walked in and took a look. Wow, he can actually cook!
“You can cook?” Qiu Zhenyang leaned over from behind Ling Mu. Warm breath tickled his earlobe, his deep voice stirring his ears, making them itch.
“Are you a ghost, walking so silently?” Ling Mu was so focused that he didn’t hear anything, and was taken aback by the sudden voice against his ears.
Qiu Zhenyang chuckled lightly and nudged Ling Mu’s waist.
“Okay, you go out, I’ll do it.” Qiu Zhenyang was very worried seeing Ling Mu’s way of cutting vegetables!
But Ling Mu obviously didn’t let go. Frowning, he kicked Qiu Zhenyang, and turned around to cut the vegetables on his own.
Seeing him like this, Qiu Zhenyang didn’t continue pestering him. He went to the fridge to take out the other ingredients.
But just as he took out the meat, Ling Mu who was chopping vegetables suddenly let out a low cry, and the knife fell on the chopping board.
“What’s wrong?” Qiu Zhenyang’s heart skipped a beat. The package in his hands fell to the ground, and he quickly turned to look at Ling Mu.
Qiu Zhenyang’s face turned black at the sight, and he immediately took Ling Mu’s cut finger and stuffed it into his mouth.
“F*ck, what are you doing, Pervert Qiu!” Ling Mu’s whole body exploded at the soft touch on his fingers. He wanted to pull his fingers out of Qiu Zhenyang’s lips, but as long as Qiu Zhenyang didn’t want to let go, it was the same as not being able to break free.
Ling Mu glanced at his kidnapped hand, and then glanced at Qiu Zhenyang’s inky black pupils staring at him. He was unwilling… but can only grit his teeth and endure!
It wasn’t until Qiu Zhenyang felt it was okay that he finally let go of Ling Mu’s hand.
Licking the corner of his lower lip, Qiu Zhenyang reminisced on the rusty taste in his mouth with satisfaction. Although this method is not scientific, it is quite useful for promoting feelings!
“Come here, I’ll sterilize and bandage it.” Qiu Zhenyang took Ling Mu’s hand and sat down on the sofa in the living room, then looked for the medicine box in the living room cabinet.
Ling Mu twisted his face and stared at Qiu Zhenyang’s back. “Since it still needs to be sterilized and bandaged, what about just now? Suddenly sucking blood like a vampire?”
Qiu Zhenyang snorted twice without turning his head. “If I were really a vampire, I would absolutely suck all your blood, and then let you drink my blood, so that every blood cell in your body belongs to me only.”
After finally finding the medicine box, Qiu Zhenyang closed the drawer wondering why Ling Mu didn’t refute him. When he turned his head, he saw that the young man sitting on the sofa was blushing, biting his lip and clenching his hands, wearing an ashamed expression.
“You…” Heartbeat rising, Qiu Zhenyang’s hands softened and his hands holding the medicine box almost loosened.
“Ah, you really…” He rubbed his face helplessly, took a deep breath and walked to Ling Mu and sat down. The teenager bounced away as if stung by a bee, but failed when he was wrapped around the waist by Qiu Zhenyang again.
“Are you shy?”
Qiu Zhenyang’s voice was very soft, and he couldn’t help laughing next to Ling Mu’s ear: “I didn’t expect our Xiao Mumu to have such a thin skin.”
“F*ck, roll away for me.”
“Okay, okay, I won’t tease you anymore. Don’t move, I’ll disinfect you.”
Qiu Zhenyang pulled his hand back and took the disinfectant and cotton balls from the medicine box, and pulled Ling Mu’s injured finger over. After disinfecting, he took out the healing agent, applied it to Ling Mu with a cotton swab, and finally carefully pasted a bandage on.
After packing everything up, Qiu Zhenyang reminded: “This healing agent is very useful. The wound should heal and disappear the day after tomorrow, but the pain will be more obvious in the past two days.”
Many things in interstellar are high-tech, medicinal effects included. The effect is also very significant, but there are also some disadvantages.
Ling Mu looked at his finger in disgust. The bandage was very annoying. “It’s ugly.”
Qiu Zhenyang kissed the finger standing in front of him before he could react.
“Mua~ what’s so ugly? Our Xiao Mumu’s fingers are the best~”
“F*ck, Qiu Zhenyang, you want to f*cking die so much? Come here, I promise not to kill you!”
Sometimes I wonder who is more sensible between QZY and LM…
