Chapter 160: Chapter 160: The Deep Love Between Desk Mates
Duan Feihan patiently repeated his earlier words, “Come down.”
Bai Chuwei corrected, “You left out a ‘be careful’.”
Duan Feihan: “…Come down, be careful.”
Bai Chuwei suddenly stood up from the hood of that car, looked down at Duan Feihan, and then hurled herself at him.
Caught off guard, the man staggered backward two steps when Bai Chuwei’s sudden embrace hit him, then he quickly wrapped his arms around her waist to steady himself. A faint scent of medicine swirled around his nostrils, causing a jolt of emotion to shake the depths of his eyes.
Bai Chuwei buried her head against his chest and took in a couple of deep breaths, feeling that today was worth it, so she could skip going back for her pills.
Bai Chuwei stole a glance at the Sandalwood Buddhist Beads on his left wrist, struggling to resist the urge to take them off him.
Duan Feihan coughed and pulled Bai Chuwei out, “Your action just now was too dangerous.”
Bai Chuwei responded with an indifferent “Oh.”
Duan Feihan’s dark eyes fixed on Bai Chuwei, saying, “Xingye told me you’re meeting with the entire Bai Family tonight, so you didn’t take their car back, but instead said it was raining and asked me to pick you up.”
Duan Feihan’s voice paused, “Next time, you don’t need to find an excuse, I will come to pick you up directly.”
Bai Chuwei looked at him and shook her head, “Hanhan, you’re overthinking it, I called you because I really had something, I didn’t make up an excuse.”
Bai Chuwei patted the revision materials standing beside them almost as tall as Duan Feihan’s waist, taking malicious pleasure, “Could you help me deliver these to Duan Xingye? He loves studying so much, I’m gifting it all to him.”
See, how profound was her camaraderie for her sweet and naïve desk-mate! ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel✦fire.net
Duan Feihan looked at the tall stack of revision materials, a vein throbbing on his temple, “…”
He probably hadn’t written this much homework in his entire three years of high school.
Normally, why hadn’t he seen Bai Chuwei this generous?
Bai Chuwei then egged him on, “Come on, get your car over here, and I’ll move these materials into the trunk!”
Duan Feihan glanced at her slender arms and legs, his voice deep, “You stand there, I’ll take care of it.”
Duan Feihan quickly moved the pile of homework into the car, and the trunk was nearly unable to fit everything in.
Bai Chuwei reveled in schadenfreude, “Duan Xingye will definitely feel my profound affection as a desk-mate!”
Duan Feihan: “…Indeed, very profound.”
Bai Chuwei looked at the transparent umbrella, “Mine?”
Duan Feihan nodded, “Yes, yours. I brought it over for you.”
Not long after Duan Feihan’s car left Juxian Pavilion, the rain stopped.
Bai Chuwei took out her cell phone, leaned against the car door, her fingers flying over the virtual keyboard, and dialed a phone number.
“Hello?” The other side was very puzzled.
Bai Chuwei’s tone was languid, “Did you get any useful dirt?”
The man was stunned for a good while, finding the voice familiar and then suddenly realizing, “Oh, are you the lady who brought me into Juxian Pavilion today and also told me the room number of Duan Xiuqi’s booth?”
Bai Chuwei hummed in affirmation, causing the paparazzo to be shocked; how did she know his phone number?
Bai Chuwei repeated, “Did you get it?”
The paparazzi man slapped his thigh, extremely excited, “I didn’t get a shot! But I owe it all to you, miss. Since Juxian Pavilion thought I was with you, I went back to their surveillance room afterward and saw that the acting emperor Duan was getting intimate with a girl in a school uniform!” It’s just a pity he didn’t see the girl’s face.
Bai Chuwei took a deep breath, “Do you want your press credentials revoked for being more trouble than you’re worth?”
