Xie Li did not want to take advantage of Yu Rui’s carelessness, he even approached slowly, allowing him enough time to react.
Yu Rui hesitated. In the end, he did not push the person away, but frowned slightly and turned his face to the side to avoid the kiss that was about to land on his lips.
But after all, space was limited and he had no place to hide. If Xie Li kept coming closer, the kiss would only be a matter of a second or two’s delay.
But Xie Li stopped.
When he was only inches away from the corner of the young man’s lips, he stopped, looked down, and slowly rubbed Yu Rui’s beautiful lips, then Xie Li’s eyes curved. His laughter sounded a little hoarse.
Yu Rui frowned even more.
The man’s scorching breath was at his fingertips, and his laughter and voice sounded as good as his classmates had said, and the eyes seemed to hide hooks that took away his reason bit by bit… This non-kiss unsettled him even more than a kiss.
“The Class President has been a little too kind tonight.” Xie Li finally spoke, still smiling, “I thought he would grab my wrist and press me against the board.”
Yu Rui came back to his senses, lifted his eyelids slightly after hearing this, and tried his best to keep the indifference in his eyes, “Guessing such an outcome and still moving forward, do you have masochistic tendencies?”
“Not before I met you.” Xie Li laughed hoarsely, ” Now… I don’t know.”
Yu Rui frowned.
Xie Li laughed again, “Since the Class President is the one who advised me to go to the doctor, then you should go with me; after all, you are the ‘source’ of the ‘disease’, and also the ‘medicine’ against such a ‘disease’.”
“…I don’t think you need to consult anything, go directly to neurosurgery.” Yu Rui looked at him coldly.
Xie Li opened his mouth and was about to say something, but for some reason, his eyes narrowed slightly. He smiled as he stepped back, “Maybe you’re right.”
“…”
Yu Rui was a little surprised that Xie Li was being so reasonable today. After a few seconds of silence he straightened up and picked up his backpack, “You go out first, I’ll be closing up.”
Xie Li bowed and took the key from Yu Rui, “I’ll do it.”
“??”
Yu Rui looked up and stared at Xie Li, but finally said nothing. He turned around and walked out of the classroom, walking down the stairs right in front of the front door of the classroom.
The classroom was silent again.

Xie Li looked at the key in his palm, which still seemed to have the warmth of Yu Rui’s body.

His expression was too ghastly for words to describe.
Xie Li seemed to be unsurprised that the person hiding behind the door was Qiao Shengyu, or rather, he probably wasn’t surprised who it was.
Xie Li put away the key and stepped down from the podium.
“Did you see something?”
Qiao Shengyu’s face turned even paler.
He glanced at Xie Li in a complex manner, feeling that his mind was really confused, even wondering if he had just hallucinated from thinking and listening too much in the past two days; how else could this person still look like his usual lazy and apathetic self after doing something like this and being seen by someone?
Getting a response from Qiao Shengyu’s silence, Xie Li finally stopped a few meters away from him, “I’m afraid you might think nonsense or talk too much, so I’ll give you a formal notice.”
He leaned over to sit on the desk next to him, fiddling with the key as he looked down, and spoke nonchalantly, “What you just saw, in a nutshell, is that there is a psycho person in Class 10 named Xie Li, who harasses and annoys Master Yu, always trying to force something on him. Master Yu resists daily, but since Xie Li is too sick, he didn’t dare to tell the teachers… Well, that’s all.”
Xie Li lazily finished and finally looked up.
That was the same lazy and disinterested attitude he showed in front of everyone, except when facing Yu Rui.
“Anything else you want to know, I’ll tell you.”
Qiao Shengyu took some time to let his stiff throat find his voice as he spoke with difficulty, “Are you… really… forcing Brother Rui?”
Xie Li was silent for a moment upon hearing this question, and suddenly lowered his gaze and chuckled hoarsely.
He chuckled to himself for a while before stopping and also turned away from the desk.
“Well, of course, I forced it, what else?”
Xie Li shoved his hands into his pants pockets and sluggishly said, “Weren’t you in the same class as him last year? You should know him well, when have you ever seen him get close to anyone?”
Qiao Shengyu clenched his fists, his expression turned even uglier, “Then why do you have to drag Brother Rui into this kind of th-”
Before Qiao Shengyu could finish, a cold voice suddenly rang out.
“If you are going to fight, I suggest you do it outside the school.”
Qiao Shengyu turned in surprise, and even Xie Li was a little surprised. He didn’t really need to turn around to know who it was though…
“You haven’t left yet?” Xie Li looked towards the main door of the classroom and raised his eyebrows slightly, “Class President.”
Yu Rui looked at him coolly, “How can it be normal that you’ve been with me until this late and didn’t insist on me leaving with you?”
Xie Li was taken aback. After a moment, he smiled, “Ah, my mistake.”
Seeing these two talking in front of him in a more normal manner, Qiao Shengyu felt that his head was about to explode. He turned to Yu Rui with a very angry expression, “Brother Rui, what is it that he is threatening you with? You… how can you give in to him on something like that?”
Yu Rui had long since lost his usual kind smile towards Qiao Shengyu, his temper was cold, and he looked at him as if he was foolish upon hearing Qiao Shengyu’s words, “Do you believe everything he says?”
“??”
Qiao Shengyu was again confused.
Yu Rui lost his patience, it was already troublesome to be bothered by someone, and the fact that he still hadn’t managed to avoid things after hiding, made him a little more depressed.
He frowned and looked at his watch, “It’s about time for lights out, hurry up and close the door…. if you have something to say, do it outside the school.”
Xie Li didn’t need Yu Rui to repeat it to him, he had already taken the initiative to “sniff” his way to Yu Rui.
His demeanor was light and slow, but the emotions in his eyes were deep. When he reached Yu Rui’s side, Xie Li stopped and smiled as if sighing, “Class President, this is not the deal.”
“What was the deal?”
Xie Li, “Last time at the assembly hall’s back door, did you forget what I said?”
Yu Rui shuddered.
[No matter what happens in the future. If one day they say something to you, just tell them that I’m the one who’s sick, and the one who’s also bothering you].
[Don’t worry. No matter what you ask me to do in the future, I will definitely do what you say.]
Yu Rui’s eyes trembled as he turned around with his backpack.
“Forget it.”
Xie Li’s eyes deepened.
A few seconds later, he lowered his gaze and sighed softly before following Yu Rui toward the door.
The key to the door was casually left by Xie Li, “Last one out locks the door.”
He walked out without looking back.
It took Qiao Shengyu time to regain his senses, and he hurried to grab his backpack and close the door. He ran in a hurry to catch up with the two.
It was silent all the way until they reached the school gate.
There was a large pine tree next to the school gate that was several years old, and whose top must have been several meters high. The three of them stopped under the tree side by side.
Xie Li was the most sullen and apathetic, but his eyes never took his eyes off Yu Rui.
Qiao Shengyu watched everything along the way, resenting the fact that this man had completely stopped hiding his greed for Yu Rui after being exposed, but then he thought; before being exposed, Xie Li didn’t seem to have hidden it much either.
It was just that at that time he was stupid and blind. He laughed and thought that the two of them had similar interests.
Come to think of it…
Qiao Shengyu’s expression became even stranger.
After this silence lasted for a long time, Yu Rui was the first to look up, and looked at Qiao Shengyu, ”If there’s something you want to ask, ask.
Qiao Shengyu held his breath and looked at Yu Rui, then at Xie Li. In the end, he gritted his teeth and asked hurriedly, “Brother Rui, I just want to know one thing. You… do you do it willingly or are you being forced to?”
Xie Li’s eyes narrowed slightly.
A few seconds later, the corners of his mouth curved up, and the emotions under his eyes deepened as he looked at Yu Rui.
“What a coincidence, I also want to know ah, Class President.”
Haha forced to do what – give Xie Li dirty looks and tell him to go straight to neurosurgery? 😆
