Li Yang hurriedly stood up, sweating profusely. "You guys are looking up information? Stock trading information, right?"
Li Yang had no choice but to walk away. He saw Zhao Ran peeking around in the kitchen, so he went over and whispered, "I'm going back to school now. I'll come back to see you when I have time."
"Then you must come back often, I'll miss you." Zhao Ran was still a little hesitant, probably still thinking about what had just happened.
"Definitely." Li Yang smiled slightly. He also enjoyed the feeling just now. Coming back and flirting with the girl every now and then was a very enjoyable thing. Why not do it?
"Mmm." The little girl agreed, glanced at her mother and Aunt Qiu, then suddenly rushed out and kissed Li Yang before shyly running back.
Li Yang chuckled, touched his cheek, and walked away.
Back at school, during class time, he didn't go to the classroom, not wanting to cause a commotion or attract attention. Instead, he went into the woods on the hill.
The afternoon sun was warm and pleasant, making me feel lazy and unwilling to move, so I lay down on the grassy slope and dozed off.
In his dazed state, he felt that someone had also gone up the hill, but he didn't pay any attention.
"Now that there's no one here, you can tell me, right? Do you like him?" a girl asked in a low voice.
“Yes, the policy of ‘resistance is punished severely, and confession is treated leniently’ is very lenient.” Another girl chimed in with further questioning.
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could I possibly like him? I was just playing around with him. Besides, I run the school newspaper, and he's a good writer, so that's why we got a little closer," another girl anxiously defended herself.
Hearing the voices of the other two women already made him feel they were somewhat familiar, but when he heard the third woman's voice, he snapped back to reality. Damn, isn't that Zhao Lihua?
"Are you really just using her?" Jiao Hua asked incredulously.
"Just admit it already, and we'll keep it a secret for you," Liang Chunyun said with a smile.
"There's really nothing between us, we're just ordinary friends. Besides, my dad said he might be involved in organized crime and doesn't want me to associate with him. How could I possibly be close to him?" Zhao Lihua said arrogantly and disdainfully.
"Then what's the explanation for this?" Jiao Hua asked, pulling out Zhao Lihua's phone.
"Yeah, we saw the messages you exchanged with him yesterday, they were so ambiguous. But I really have to admire that guy's flirting skills. Don't tell me you didn't understand them," Liang Chunyun said with a mischievous smile.
"What?! You dare to peek at my information? How shameless!" Zhao Lihua exclaimed anxiously.
Chapter 134: Don't Mess Around in the Office
"Don't blame us, it's your own fault for leaving your phone on your desk. I happened to notice that you looked strange when you were texting, so I took a look out of curiosity, hehe... I was really shocked when I saw it!"
“You are shameless! I have nothing to do with him. I was just being polite to him yesterday. Besides, he is involved with other women. How could I have anything to do with someone like that?” Zhao Lihua said with great contempt.
...
Li Yang, listening from the side, felt incredibly frustrated. Fine, since you dislike me so much and don't want anything to do with me, and I'm also quite annoyed by being a celebrity lately, being constantly pointed at and gossiped about, as associating with you is absolutely pointless. Let everything from the past just fade away.
Li Yang suddenly stood up, walked up to the three of them, looked at them quietly, snorted coldly, and strode away.
Jiao Hua and Liang Chunyun wrinkled their noses disdainfully and spat, "What's so arrogant about that? Who cares! Isn't it Lihua!"
Turning around, he noticed Zhao Lihua's expression was somewhat strange, her face slightly pale, but he didn't pay much attention. Zhao Lihua immediately reverted to her icy school beauty persona, coldly scoffing, "What's with the arrogance? Who cares!"
"Exactly, he really thinks he's something! Who does he think he is? No money, no skills, and his grades aren't even as good as ours. I heard he's been skipping classes and talking back to teachers lately, what a piece of trash!"
"Let's go, it's time for class," Zhao Lihua urged impatiently.
"Yes, let's go quickly."
...
When Li Yang returned to the classroom, he felt a bit bored. To be honest, he wasn't a boy who used to enjoy messing around with girls, but since gaining his superpower, he suddenly felt like he was floating on air.
Judging from what he's been doing lately, it seems like you can understand something. He seriously reflected on himself and realized, "Hmm, I still need to be careful, keep a low profile."
After school at noon, Li Yang was still reading in the classroom. He had bought some books before, but he hadn't finished reading them all, so he continued reading. Suddenly, a message arrived.
"Li Yang, are you angry with me?" Zhao Lihua asked.
"What do you mean? I don't understand." Li Yang quickly replied. Since I'm involved in organized crime, have no ability or money, and you're just using me, why should we continue to associate with each other?
"Are you really angry? Everything I said was a lie!!!"
"How could I dare, Miss Zhao?" Since she already knew that she was involved in organized crime, it must have been Zhao Yunlong who told her.
Zhao Lihua didn't reply to the message for a while, so Li Yang got tired of looking at it and continued reading.
In the following days, Zhao Lihua stopped calling Li Yang, and Li Yang also stopped paying attention to her. The two were like strangers. As for who wrote the articles for her school newspaper, he didn't care.
He has now returned to a peaceful and ordinary student life, and no one pays attention to his whereabouts anymore. After all, he is no longer with Zhao Lihua, so there is no need to follow him.
It's worth mentioning that Gao Yan dropped out of school. He had no choice but to drop out; his father had fallen from grace and gone to jail, and he had almost been turned into mincemeat by those women. It would be strange if he didn't drop out.
If that's the case, about a week will pass, and it will soon be the weekend. Everyone will be discussing going out to have fun, and the campus will probably be deserted very quickly.
The cold war between Li Yang and Zhao Lihua lasted for a week.
"Li Yang, I'll be waiting for you in the grove on the playground this afternoon," Zhao Lihua suddenly sent a message.
Li Yang glanced at it, then tossed it aside and ignored it.
My phone suddenly rang; it was Sister Xin.
"Hey, Sister Xin," Li Yang said happily.
"Okay. School's almost over. Come to my office after school." Sister Xin's voice was as gentle and pleasant as ever.
"Okay, no problem," Li Yang replied excitedly.
