This nonchalant attitude reminded Rossi of the days when she was practicing fencing and Cheng Qing would stand up for her in a fit of rage after she was bullied.
At that time, I had only known Cheng Qing for two days, yet she taught an acquaintance a lesson on my behalf.
Now, she and Cheng Qing have known each other for a month or so, and their feelings for each other are anything but clear.
How could Luo Xi possibly swallow this insult? Seeing that Cheng Qing wouldn't give it to her, she simply pounced on him to snatch the phone.
Cheng Qing immediately raised her phone, and Luo Xi missed, but she was furious. Although she failed to grab it the first time, she immediately wanted to stand up and suppress her opponent.
Cheng Qing held the phone in his left hand and wrapped his right arm around her waist, pulling her into his embrace.
Losi: "...What are you doing?!" Little Losi struggled in Cheng Qing's arms, but was held even tighter.
"Stop fighting over it," Cheng Qing sighed helplessly.
Lossie: "No, give me your phone, I'll call back for you." Since she couldn't break free, Lossie simply lifted herself up from her embrace, her round, dark eyes filled with anger.
Although she couldn't move, she was still clinging to Cheng Qing, trying to reach out and grab the phone from his hand.
But no matter what she did, she couldn't hook it, and Rossi looked both angry and anxious.
Cheng Qing, who was holding her, did not back down. His height advantage and the raised arm made it difficult for Luo Xi to move. Although he was restraining her, the expression on his face when he looked down at Luo Xi was gentle and tolerant.
"I'm not angry anymore."
"Give me!!!"
【Aaaaaaaahhhhhh, kill me to liven things up for them!!!】
【Aaaaaaaah, I'm dead! I'm dead! I'm dead!!!】
[Calm down, everyone!!! It was just a hug!!!]
[This tension...when can we finally kiss? I'd die happy, truly.]
[Force my head to kiss you.]
"Teacher Cheng, trust me, she'll calm down if you kiss her."
Even though it wasn't the first time they'd hugged, the comments section was as lively as ever.
No matter what she did, Losi couldn't get it, and in her frustration and exasperation, she yelled, "Are you really that soft-hearted? That soft?!"
Cheng Qing chuckled, her eyes crinkling as she said, "Why bother? Just live your own life well."
Luo Xi pushed Cheng Qing away, knelt down in front of her, and said loudly, "No!!! We can't let people say that."
The viewers in the chat then realized that the two were arguing. Because the live stream had switched to a distant view, they still didn't know why the two had started arguing.
[Who said what?]
[Suddenly, I realized the princess is quite angry.]
Did you two have a fight?
【Even arguing is this sweet? _(:з」∠)_】
Cheng Qing tilted her head slightly, looked at Luo Xi, and said softly, "I'm really fine, I don't feel injured."
"Impossible!" Losi felt injured after just one glance. How could the person involved… Cheng Qing, the person involved, not be injured!
Lossie: "Do they think you're dead?"
“They dare to say that, probably because it’s been like this before.” Cheng Qing chuckled and looked at the camera not far away. “I believe they are watching the live stream too, so there’s even less reason for me to get angry according to their ideas or show them my emotions.”
Upon hearing this, Losi paused, her eyes widening as she eagerly asked, "Was it like this before?"
Why are they bullying you?
Cheng Qing lowered her head and whispered in Luo Xi's ear, "Although I have amnesia, I only have amnesia, not stupidity. You can tell from the chat history that I was probably... not very popular before."
After speaking, she sat up straight, looked at the camera, and said, "Human nature is complex. I guess no one wants to see someone who was once less fortunate than themselves suddenly rise to prominence! So..."
At this point, Cheng Qing stared sharply at the classmates on the other side of the screen and smiled coldly: "I just need to be better than them."
Wow!
I didn't hear very clearly, but from those one or two sentences, it seemed like they were talking about a high school classmate?
[Professor Cheng's expression at the end was so cool!!! My legs went weak in respect! (#^.^#)]
Luo Xi finally calmed down, looking ahead with Cheng Qing, her calm expression no longer agitated. Cheng Qing breathed a sigh of relief, but just as she adjusted her posture, Luo Xi suddenly turned around and pounced on her, snatching the phone from Cheng Qing's hand.
At the same time, he shouted, "If that's the case, then we can't just let it go like this!!!"
As a result, she had just finished making the boast when she found that her phone wouldn't turn on. Luo Xi was stunned and exclaimed, "Huh?" before looking at Cheng Qing with a blank expression.
Cheng Qing was stunned when her phone was snatched, but then she saw Luo Xi trying so hard to stand up for her.
At that moment, she, who hadn't cared before, softened and had no strength left to resist.
She took the phone, turned it on, and handed it back.
Luo Xi froze, staring at the phone handed to her, then looked up at Cheng Qing in confusion. Her face seemed to ask, "Why did you give this to me again?"
Cheng Qing raised an eyebrow: "I'm waiting for you to avenge me."
Upon hearing this, Lossie smiled smugly, immediately opened the WeChat group chat, and directly selected to send a voice message: "Losers, you do nothing all day, and all you can do is talk nonsense, right? Teacher Cheng has a good temper, but I don't. If you dare to say another word, see if I don't sue you."
After sending the voice message, Losi exited WeChat and returned the phone.
Cheng Qing was filled with tenderness. She took the phone, didn't even look at it, and put it away directly.
The viewers in the live chat naturally heard Losi's powerful voice and immediately realized what was happening.
Who upset Teacher Cheng?
[This is unacceptable! Teacher Cheng is such a good person, who gave her such an upset?]
[Who is this person? I've liked Teacher Cheng from the very beginning. She's polite, gentle, tolerant, always smiling, has a wonderful temper, is mature, can cook, plays games, and can sing. With so many good qualities, who can compare?]
Those who speak ill of Teacher Cheng, please open your eyes wide and look at yourselves in the mirror first!
The intense reactions in the live chat caused the messages in the high school group chat to suddenly come to a halt.
The insults and abuse in the live chat made them shrink into a corner, making them afraid to speak again.
Seeing such a scene for the first time, those people were so frightened that they immediately turned off their phones.
This was also the first time they personally experienced how different Cheng Qing was from what she used to be.
Author's Note:
I'm sleepy, goodnight everyone.
Chapter 95
The picnic ended in such a lively atmosphere.
Everyone packed up and went back, completely exhausted and unable to move. They all lay down on their seats and drifted off to sleep as soon as they got on the bus, including Losi.
When we got back, the sky was ablaze with the colors of sunset.
She leaned against the car window, her eyes tightly closed, her raven-white eyelashes casting shadows on her eyelids. As the car moved, her head bobbed up and down, her forehead occasionally brushing against the window with a soft sound.
But Luo Xi still didn't wake up. Cheng Qing sat beside her, looking at her with amusement, and reached out to help her lean against his shoulder.
Losi, fast asleep, nestled into Cheng Qing's arms with a gentle pull. Cheng Qing held Losi close, a pleased smile playing on her lips, and whispered, "Thank you."
Lossie was asleep and naturally wouldn't respond. Cheng Qing wasn't expecting an answer anyway; she simply leaned against Lossie's head and slowly closed her eyes to sleep.
Everyone was exhausted that night. We ate the leftovers from our picnic for dinner and then packed up early to rest.
***
The next day, after waking up, Cheng Qing and Luo Xi went downstairs for a simple breakfast, as usual.
A group of fans who were waiting patiently in the live stream started chatting excitedly as soon as the stream started.
After Cheng Qing and Luo Xi had breakfast, they received a notification that the new guest would arrive in the evening.
Of course, the tasks were also distributed to each group in the form of task cards in front of the camera.
The task was delivered by the assistant director, who explained that the new guests were friends visiting. As the host of the house, it was natural to provide a good welcome to the guests who had come from afar.
Although, in reality, it was the first time everyone had met.
As Kong Mingyan said, the guest in Cheng Qing's group was changed from Mingyue to Muxue.
The reason was that Mingyue wanted to learn to sing, while Muxue wanted to learn to cook. Coincidentally, Zhao Baibing could sing, and Cheng Qing could cook. Thus, with a perfectly valid reason, the new guests in Cheng Qing's group and Baibing's group were switched.
In order to welcome guests, dinner naturally cannot be a simple affair.
After lunch and the live stream with netizens, Cheng Qing and Luo Xi went to the supermarket to buy groceries.
The refrigerator was full of frozen products. The two went to the supermarket and first bought some fresh fish, meat and fruit, then browsed for some snacks and other items before rushing back.
The only thing that worried them was that they didn't have many points left, so they didn't dare to spend lavishly when entertaining guests.
Cheng Qing naturally took charge of preparing dinner for the new guests. Luo Xi didn't have much talent for cooking, so she could only follow behind Cheng Qing and help out.
After returning from the supermarket, the two busied themselves preparing, and Cheng Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief after all the vegetables were ready.
Preparing ingredients often takes more time and effort than cooking them.
After Cheng Qing let down her long hair and went to the living room to rest, Luo Xi sat down next to her and then secretly peeked at Cheng Qing.
Ever since that incident in the high school group chat yesterday, Luo Xi even went to Cheng Qing's place late last night to check his phone.
Only after confirming that those guys who knew nothing but talking had stopped saying those annoying things in the group chat did I feel relieved enough to go back to my room to sleep.
Cheng Qing was resting on the sofa when she suddenly sensed Luo Xi's gaze peeking at her. Amused, she opened her eyes and looked at her, asking softly, "What are you looking at?"
Losi paused, then immediately turned her head away: "No."
Cheng Qing squinted, clearly disbelieving, and leaned closer to her ear to ask, "Are you worried about what's going on in the group chat?"
Losi rubbed her ear and frowned, saying, "They wouldn't dare to say anything like that."
"That's not necessarily true." Cheng Qing chuckled, sat back on the sofa, brushed her bangs behind her head, and said sleepily, "They might have created a small group to continue insulting me, but I just don't know it."
Losi choked: "...No way?"
Cheng Qing: "Why can't you do it?"
