Chapter 37 Curiosity Killed the Cat!
As soon as Chu Xichi said this, everyone present fell silent.
But he didn't care, he raised the corner of his lips and raised the unknown powder that he had just collected from Song Xuyao's body, waved it in front of people and said, "You don't need to say what it is, I can identify it myself."
"What's wrong with you?!"
Song Xuyao's face was ferocious, and he started to get hysterical. He completely broke his face with everyone, and wanted to grab the things back regardless.
He knew better than anyone else that as soon as the appraisal result came out, he would be completely finished. It would be better to tear his face and snatch it back now to say that he might still have a chance.
However, just as Song Xuyao rushed towards the young man, before he took two steps, someone pinched his wrist and stopped him forcefully. He looked at the man with tearing eyes, and it turned out to be what he had originally planned. This time The target discipline is thin.
"You put... ah!!"
The other party didn't know how hard they tried, but Song Xuyao's threatening words turned into a shrill scream: "Let go, it's about to break!"
Inadvertently bumped into the youth's eyes full of darkness, the gaze was so sharp that he forgot to struggle for a moment, his back felt cold, and his whole body was nailed in place by this sinister gaze.
Seeing that the situation was not right, the stunned students around came back to their senses, and hurried forward to try to pull the two apart: "Ji Yubo, let go of him first."
The shackles between his wrists were as strong as cast iron, no matter how hard Song Xuyao tried, he still couldn't move at all, and his wrists even completely lost consciousness.
The chaos here has attracted the attention of other tables. Chu Xichi didn't want to make a big deal, so he put the powder into his pocket casually, and said softly to Ji Yubo, "It's fine."
Song Xuyao had already given up hope, but he never thought that the young man let go of his hand obediently just as the young man said something light and fluffy.
He took two steps back in some doubts, trying to keep the distance from the boy as far as possible.
Ji Yubo's performance terrified him from the bottom of his heart.
Was he blind before?To think that Ji Yubo is a good stubble who is easy to bully.
Here, seeing that the situation was under control, Chu Xichi didn't plan to stay longer.
Although the male lead didn't say it, but according to the other party's previous performance, he knew in his heart that the other party didn't want to have too much involvement with him in school.
Thinking of this, Chu Xichi lowered his eyes and looked away, deliberately pretending to be unfamiliar, ignoring Ji Yubo, and preparing to leave directly.
Hiding merit and fame deeply, completely confirming Lei Feng's behavior.
I'm such a good person, he thought silently.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he took two steps, Chu Xichi heard someone following behind him, turned his head to look, and saw that it was Ji Yubo who had gone and returned.
He hesitated and said, "You...?"
"what happened?"
However, the boy's face was uncharacteristically calm, and he seemed completely unaware of the chattering noises of his classmates behind him.
Something is wrong, Ji Yubo is really not right today.
But he couldn't tell what was wrong with the other party.
After a moment of silence, seeing more and more eyes on their side, Chu Xichi didn't want to stay here any longer, shook his head and said, "It's nothing."
University A does not allow social vehicles to enter. Chu Xichi came in a hurry and parked the car at the main entrance. It is still a short walk from where the two are now.
At this time, the night had just fallen, and the surrounding high-rise buildings were shining with stars, and the remote paths in the campus were only left with a gentle breeze and dim yellow street lights.
Most of the people who came out for a walk at this time were young couples in the period of passionate love, and the two of them were a bit out of place.
Because of yesterday's incident, Chu Xichi was already a little embarrassed towards Ji Yubo, and in this atmosphere, his face was sullen, and he quickened his pace silently.
Seeing the young man who was walking faster and faster, gradually pulling away from him, Ji Yubo sighed helplessly, and when he was about to take two quick steps to catch up with him, his phone rang suddenly.
"Buzzing—"
He frowned slightly, and paused for a moment before taking out his phone. As expected, the caller ID was Ji Geng.
Today is Monday, the day when the Ji family holds a press conference.
He directly ignored Ji Geng's request to invite Chu Xichi to attend, and he didn't even mention this matter to the young man at all.
Ji Yubo stared at the screen for a long time, and with a swipe of his fingertip, the number was added to the blacklist.
It's okay to say that he is stubborn, but no matter how many times, he doesn't want to beg the other party because of these things.
He stubbornly used his own way to maintain this hopeless relationship.
"Aren't you going to answer?"
The movement of the mobile phone caught Chu Xichi's attention, and he looked at the boy suspiciously.
"It's just harassing calls."
"Oh."
The male protagonist didn't want to say more, and he didn't intend to pursue further, so the two fell into silence again.
"Ding--"
Just when Ji Yubo was about to put away the phone, the phone rang again, it was a text message from a stranger.
【Ji Yubo, don't forget your grandma, this time I just taught you a little lesson, it won't be so next time. 】
There was no signature, no cause and effect, only a simple threat, but just one glance made Ji Yubo's back start to break out in cold sweat.
Grandma is in danger!
This must be Ji Geng's handwriting. According to the character of the other party who is bullying and afraid of being tough, he will only attack grandma who is helpless.
"Mr. Chu, I suddenly remembered that there is something wrong with the school..." Ji Yubo stopped walking and his whole body tensed up, trying to keep his complexion normal so that the other party would not notice any clues.
Hearing this, Chu Xichi didn't think much about it. He was worried that he would go home and face the young man alone, so the other party spoke.
When he fell asleep, someone handed him a pillow, and he immediately agreed without hesitation, "Oh, then you should be careful."
"Ok."
Seeing the back of the young man leaving, Chu Xichi was completely relieved. At this time, the police | and the testing agency are off work, so he can only go tomorrow, so he simply drove back home leisurely.
The night was completely shrouded, and the empty room seemed a little lonely at this moment, as if something was missing.
Chu Xichi shook his head, forgetting the weird thoughts in his head.
How can I think so, it must be too tired recently!
He turned on the chandelier, and the warm soft light quickly covered the entire room, and the temperature quickly rose, making it warm again.
Seeing this, Chu Xichi nodded in satisfaction. After changing into pajamas, he hugged the mini pig, collapsed on the sofa and began to study the white powder just received from Song Xuyao.
He set aside part of the medicine powder that he was going to send for testing, and poured the rest in the palm of his hand to start researching.
The medicines that can appear in the flower market can only be aphrodisiacs in all likelihood. He has only heard of its name before, but has never seen the real thing. He was a little curious when he saw it for the first time.
The powder is white and tasteless, as if it is really a bag of common cold medicine.
Just when he was about to put away the medicine in a lack of interest, the mini pig in his arms suddenly became restless, thinking it was something delicious, and bent over to taste it.
"What are you doing, this is not something you can eat."
Chu Xichi held the mini pig away with one hand, and was about to put the powder away, but unexpectedly, the mini pig sneezed at him because of choking, and the already light powder immediately smeared his face.
Chu Xichi: "......"
I am stupid! ! ! !
He threw the mini pig on the sofa, rushed into the bathroom like crazy and began to wash his face, but some powder still choked down the nasal cavity and entered the throat, and he began to drink water uncomfortably.
What's the matter! ! ! !
After doing all this, Chu Xichi collapsed back on the sofa wanting to cry but without tears.
Looking at the culprit who was gnawing on an apple, he couldn't help but get angry, but he couldn't beat the mini pig with those cute peas eyes.
Fortunately, the amount of medicine that came in was not much, and even if he took care of it, it shouldn't be a big problem... right?
However, as the overlord, this medicine is exclusive to Huashishou, so there must be no problem!
the other side.
After saying goodbye to Chu Xichi, Ji Yubo took a taxi and rushed to his grandmother's house as fast as possible.
Fortunately, it's not the rush hour now, and my grandmother's house is relatively remote and there are no passing vehicles. Within a few minutes, he arrived at the gate of the community.
The neighborhood was still as quiet as usual, occasionally a few elderly people walking by, other than that there was nothing unusual, Ji Yubo was reluctantly heaved a sigh of relief, but just to be on the safe side, he went upstairs and knocked on his grandmother. door, just in case.
"Xiao Bo, why are you here today?"
Not long after, grandma heard the noise and came to open the door, and saw the boy's eyes light up, "I didn't say it earlier, I didn't have time to prepare anything delicious for you."
"No grandma, I just came to see you."
After entering the room, Ji Yubo looked around the room calmly and found nothing wrong.
Could it be that he was thinking too much?
"Hey, you're still obedient. Neither your mother nor uncle are fuel-efficient lamps."
Grandma looked at him lovingly, seemed to think of something, and sighed wearily: "Fortunately, you are not like them at all. Grandma will be satisfied with you as a good grandson."
Hearing this, Ji Yubo was a little surprised, he hadn't heard the names of his mother and uncle from his grandmother for a long time.
His mother left him completely missing when he was very young.
But the uncle ignored his grandmother's obstruction and insisted on going out into the society. For this reason, he almost sent his grandmother into the hospital. After repeated attempts to stop him to no avail, my grandmother unilaterally refused to see him, and gradually cut off contact.
The last time Ji Yubo saw his uncle seemed to be seven or eight years ago.
His thoughts came back, he paused, and softly comforted: "Don't worry, grandma, I won't become like that."
"By the way, Xiaobo, the person who came with you last time..."
Grandma didn't want to talk about those uneasy children, so she changed the subject and asked about the boy's private life with a gossipy face.
Hearing this, Ji Yubo reluctantly raised the corners of his lips, and shook his head: "It's nothing, grandma, don't make wild guesses."
After staying for a while, nothing happened here with grandma. Although Ji Yubo was a little strange, he felt normal.
According to Ji Geng's character of bullying and shyness, he didn't dare to do black hands unless he had to. He probably just tried to scare him.
Over the years, this is not the first time that grandma has threatened him.
After clearing his mind, Ji Yubo heaved a sigh of relief. After such a delay, it was getting late. He helped his grandmother tidy up the room and got up to go home.
After going out, he remembered that Chu Xichi might not have had dinner yet, so he stopped by the wonton shop where the two had eaten together before and packed two wontons.
Afraid that the wontons would be cold when he returned home, Ji Yubo took another taxi on rare occasions.
After arriving home, he rang the doorbell first, but no one came to open the door for a long time, thinking that the other party hadn't heard him, and didn't think much, so he opened the door with his key.
"Mr. Chu, I'm back."
However, after Ji Yubo entered the door, he realized that something seemed wrong.
The young man was curled up on the sofa in a ball, his pajamas were messy, revealing a section of his white but thin waistline, Ji Yubo only dared to look at it after a glance.
He put the wontons on the table, and approached Chu Xichi lightly, "Mr. Chu, do you have a fever?"
It was only after he walked in that he could see that the young man's cheeks were flushed abnormally, the ends of his eyes were also stained with an ambiguous color, his breathing was heavy, the broken hair on his forehead was completely wet with sweat, and he had an abusive look. beauty.
The corners of Ji Yu's thin lips tightly pressed his fingertips into his palms before he calmed down. He lowered his eyes and gently placed his hand on the other's forehead. The temperature was so hot that his fingertips seemed to generate a strange electric current, which went straight to the heart.
Hearing the movement, the young man seemed to have regained some of his sanity, barely raised his eyelids, but after seeing the person clearly, he swept his hand away in shock, his voice hoarse.
"Go away, don't touch me!"
