Chapter 241: Chapter 241: Don't Leave After School (2)
 

“Why isn't Xu Chuzheng back yet?”

“Could she have run away?”

Yu Yue sat upon the steps, her hair faintly glowing with a wine-red sheen in the sunlight, complementing her delicate, beautiful face.

As the acknowledged school beauty, Yu Yue was naturally very pretty.

“She wouldn't dare,” Yu Yue scoffed with disdain. “Does she have the guts?”

“True,” someone beside her chimed in. “But she's been gone a bit too long today…”

“Then she's not coming back.”

Yu Yue lifted her eyes and saw Chuzheng stepping up the stairs, dressed in an oversized but clean school uniform jacket.

The edge of the uniform was purple, a jacket for seniors, long enough to cover her hips.

“Lele, it looks like she didn't buy the milk tea…”

Yu Yue also saw that Chuzheng had both hands in the pockets of the oversized jacket, perhaps because she had hurt her knee, she was walking slowly.

It was now afternoon, with the sun high and blazing.

All at once, the girl seemed to be touched by an aura of light, shedding her usual timidity and commanding respect not to be taken lightly.

Yu Yue stood up from the steps, a trace of confusion crossing her lovely face.

“Lele, there's something off about Xu Chuzheng.”

“The uniform she's wearing is for seniors.”

“What was she up to just now?”

“Xu Chuzheng, where's the milk tea you bought?!” someone yelled at Chuzheng.

Chuzheng walked up without saying a word.

“Speak up!”

“Have you gone mute!”

“I think she's asking for a beating, coming back empty-handed like that. Do you have a problem with us, Xu Chuzheng?”

Chuzheng had already reached their platform.

“Hmm.”

Chuzheng's hum caused a few seconds of eerie silence at the scene.

“Huh?” laughed the girl beside Yu Yue with her big red nail polish. “We sent you to buy milk tea, and you bought back some guts instead?”

Chuzheng lifted her gaze and looked at the girl with the big red nail polish.

“You selling?”

Her voice, cool as frost, echoed in their ears.

The girl standing before them, even in ill-fitting school clothes, exuded an untouchable air of nobility.

Gone was her previous cringing, cautious, and timid demeanor.

The girl with the big red nail polish involuntarily stepped back when she met Chuzheng's eyes, realizing what she'd done only after bumping into a companion behind her.

What was she afraid of?

Just bringing back some milk tea, and she dares to stand up to me?

“Xu Chuzheng, where the fuck is the milk tea you bought?”

The girl with the big red nail polish raised her voice, straightening her back, and decided in her heart that if Chuzheng dared to say she didn't buy it, she would see how to straighten her out!

Chuzheng shifted her body slightly, looking down the steps.

Yu Yue and the others followed her gaze.

Over there, a group of boys were carrying several large bags, laughing and joking as they headed their way.

“Lele, those are seniors…” someone whispered to Yu Yue with a wary expression. “What are they doing here?”

As the boys ascended the steps, the girls could see the school milk tea shop's logo on the bags they were carrying.

Yu Yue's gaze swept from Chuzheng, a vague unease settling within her.

The seniors were already striding up.

“Zhu Zian, what are you doing here?”

Yu Yue frowned at the tall figure standing over one meter ninety at the front.

Though Yu Yue had her own entourage, she wasn't considered much of a formidable figure at Dingyang Middle School.

For instance, Zhu Zian standing before her was said to have been formidable too, but he had become much more subdued since starting his senior year, not causing much trouble except for skipping classes.

Zhu Zian didn't say anything provocative but simply placed the bags on the ground. “Here's your milk tea.”

The people behind Zhu Zian set down their bags one after another.

Several bags piled up to a certain height on the ground.

“…”

The scene was quite eerie.

They had asked Xu Chuzheng to buy milk tea.

Why were seniors delivering the milk tea?

And Chuzheng was even wearing the senior's uniform.

In such a short time, how had Xu Chuzheng become involved with the seniors?

Yu Yue glanced at the bags—large cups of milk tea, the most expensive kind from the school's milk tea shop.

So many of them, at least several dozen cups…

Chuzheng kicked a bag with her foot, her tone ice-cold with no trace of warmth: “Pick whatever flavor you like, take your fill.”

“Xu Chuzheng?” Yu Yue frowned, “What are you playing at?”

How much Xu Chuzheng was worth, she knew all too well.

Where did she get the money to buy so much milk tea?

“I'm treating you,” the girl said, her beautifully contoured chin tilting up slightly: “If you can't finish it, no one is leaving today.”

“Xu Chuzheng, what the hell are you talking about? Who do you think you are!”

The girl with the bright red nail polish exploded and charged towards Chuzheng.

Zhu Zian stepped forward, taking advantage of his height, he pressed down the girl with bright red nail polish as if she were a small chicken.

“Zhu Zian, what's this got to do with you, standing up for her?”

“My dear junior, someone's treating you to milk tea and you're not happy?” Zhu Zian sneered coldly: “Don't be ungrateful.”

When Zhu Zian got tough, the girl with the bright red nail polish immediately backed down.

After all, she was just a girl.

She could show off all she wanted in front of other girls, but under the absolute advantage of a boy's strength, where would she dare make a scene? She could only glare hatefully at Chuzheng.

She didn't understand how she had become entangled with Zhu Zian.

Surely they hadn't fallen in love at first sight on the way to buy milk tea, causing Zhu Zian to become her knight in shining armor, right?

She had heard that Zhu Zian liked someone…

Yu Yue pulled the girl with the bright red nail polish back.

“Zhu Zian, we mind our own business, there's no need for you to stand up for her.”

“I didn't do anything,” Zhu Zian exchanged glances with his brothers: “The junior girl here invited you to drink milk tea, I just helped her bring it up.”

And incidentally, I'm blocking your way out too.

Zhu Zian found this task quite easy.

Chuzheng withdrew her hand, which had some scars and didn't look very nice, but her fingers were slender and beautiful.

She bent over to pick up a milk tea, and the color of the drink complemented her hand, not looking bad at all.

In fact, it added a sort of decadent beauty.

Chuzheng handed the milk tea to Yu Yue: “Drink.”

With so many milk teas, it would be a waste not to.

Yu Yue pushed Chuzheng's hand away, and the milk tea fell to the ground, its aroma spilling out.

“Xu Chuzheng, get out of the way,” Yu Yue said irritably.

What's with this Xu Chuzheng!

Although she was still the same person, and her voice hadn't changed, her actions, mannerisms, and tone were clearly different, as if she had become another person.

Feeling a bit panicked inside, Yu Yue just wanted to leave this place.

Chuzheng took her hand back: “Didn't you want to drink milk tea?”

Buying you all this milk tea and you're yelling at me.

Do you deserve the milk tea I bought for you?

“Move!” Yu Yue held back her doubts and snapped.

“Finish it and you can go,” Chuzheng said in an even voice, leaving no room for negotiation.

You guys asked me to treat you to milk tea, a promise is a promise, you have to accept the treat!! I've arranged everything for you!

Yu Yue's expression was terrible: “Are you sick or something?”

She turned to leave by another path.

Zhu Zian and his friends quickly cut off the retreat for Yu Yue and her group.
