I really want to be unremarkable

Chapter 228 227. Little Cold War (thanks to Sakura Yuji's helmsman)
【the second week】

After being absent for almost a week, Xia Zhu finally returned to school.

It's just that when Ma Xiaolan saw her, before she could say hello to her, she was taken aback.

"Oh my god, Xiao Zhu, are you alright?"

Haggard.

In front of Ma Xiaolan, Xia Zhu's expression was no longer as vigorous as before.

Although her appearance is still pretty and pleasant, it is obvious to the naked eye that compared to her previous appearance, her current complexion is obviously a lot haggard.

There was no trace of joy in the charming eyes of the past, and the innocence and romance that a girl should have.

Some are only indifferent and dazed, as well as the loss and frustration hidden deep in the eyes.

Seeing Xia Zhu's dejected expression, Ma Xiaolan felt distressed and annoyed.

What is distressing is that my friend's temperament has changed drastically because of a huge emotional injury.

The annoyance is twofold.

On the one hand, he felt that Huang Xing was really not a good person, and he dared to dump his good friend anyway.

On the other hand, he felt annoyed towards Xia Zhu that he hated iron but could not make steel.

Ma Xiaolan thinks her friend's reaction to this breakup is too big, right?Isn't it just breaking up and losing a boyfriend?
Wouldn't it be okay to find a better one later?Is it necessary to make such a fuss?

For this reason, he was absent from school for a week? ?This is too much to put the cart before the horse!

Depend on!What a silly girl!

However, although Ma Xiaolan was quite critical of Xia Zhu's performance, she still cared about him very much.

Seeing that Xia Zhu's condition is not good right now, she held the other's hand worriedly and asked:
"Xiaozhu, you seem to be in a bad state. I heard that you were sick before. Have you recovered yet?"

"..."

Xia Zhu's eyes moved, and after seeing the worried expression on the face of her close friend in front of her, she stretched out her hand to caress Ma Xiaolan's face slowly, and said softly:
"...It's okay, Lan Lan. I'm fine."

Her voice was very soft when she spoke, and it sounded light and fluffy, as if she didn't use much effort.

"Damn, what a fart you are!"

Listening to her limp tone, Ma Xiaolan couldn't help feeling angry.

She took Xia Zhu's hand and walked aside, and asked cautiously: "Xiao Zhu, tell me, what happened between you two? Why did you break up?"

"Eh... Lan Lan, do you know?"

"You're not talking nonsense. If you don't come to school for a week, of course I have to ask about the situation." Ma Xiaolan said excitedly.

But in order not to continue to stimulate Xia Zhu's emotions, she still wanted to avoid mentioning Huang Xing's name as much as possible.

"what……"

Xia Zhu opened her mouth in surprise, and the expression on her face changed slightly.

"...Yes, did he tell you?" She asked softly.

"Well, I was so angry that I was dying! That guy really didn't know what to do! I just slapped him right then."

"……what!"

Xia Zhu's eyes widened in surprise, "You, did you hit him?"

"Yeah, what's the matter? Do you still feel sorry for that scumbag?"

"..."

Hearing this, Xia Zhu was silent, and there were some complex emotions in his eyes.

Seeing this, Ma Xiaolan sighed, and asked tentatively: "Xiaozhu, what happened between you two? Why did you break up so suddenly?"

"I..." Xia Zhu's tone hesitated.

After all, the experience that night was too painful and uncomfortable.

It was a terrible nightmare at all, and I didn't want to think about it at all.

However, facing her friend's concerns and questions, after thinking about it for a while, she still shook her head and sighed, "I...actually don't know either."

"Ah?" Ma Xiaolan was confused.

"That's right, I was dumped by him all of a sudden..."

With a sudden pain in his heart, Xia Zhu pursed his lips slightly and said: "He abandoned him mercilessly..."

"Damn, let's leave that scumbag alone. It's good to recognize him earlier."

After saying this angrily, Ma Xiaolan pulled Xia Zhu up and was about to walk towards the classroom.

"Lan Lan, but I..."

Xia Zhu suddenly choked up in the middle of her sentence, and after a few seconds of hesitation, she finally said nothing.

Seeing that she seemed to have something to say, Ma Xiaolan couldn't help but frowned in doubt: "?"

Regarding this, Xia Zhu just shook his head and denied it: "No, it's nothing. Let's go back to class."

……

……

However, back to the classroom.

Xia Zhu felt that her nightmare had just begun.

There is no other reason, but because I am still at the same table with Huang Xing.

Because the art students hadn't come back before, Tan Jianbin did not reorganize the class in advance out of consideration for later coordination, but planned to wait until all the staff arrived before starting.

As a result, Xia Zhu's previous position with Huang Xing became an obstacle.

It was too embarrassing to be at the same table with my ex-boyfriend.

But it's always impossible for Xia Zhu to change seats with her, right?
And no matter how you say it, although the two have broken up now, they are not lovers anymore.

But the breakup was not caused by Xia Zhu's subjective will after all, she was the one who got dumped for no reason.

As for her true opinion of Huang Xing...

"..."

Just like what Xia Zhu said when he talked with his mother.

There is no way to let him go.

In my heart, I still like him very much.

Even though Huang Xing had abandoned himself without explanation before.

but……

"Well……"

Clenching his fist slightly, Xia Zhu gritted his teeth lightly and walked towards the direction of his seat.

But then, something even more embarrassing happened——

"pat"

Just when Xia Zhu finished drinking the water with the cup and was about to return to his seat.

As soon as she turned around, she bumped into Huang Xing head-on.

"!!"

For a moment, the movements of both of them stopped at the same time.

"..."

Facing her former lover, Xia Zhu remained silent.

"..." Huang Xing was also silent.

The eyes of the two did not meet, they just stood there tacitly, as if they were waiting for the other to take the next step.

"..."

However, seeing that Xia Zhu didn't seem to want to get out of the way first, Huang Xing lowered his eyes a little.

So in order to avoid the embarrassment of continuing to be so embarrassing, he turned his foot in the wrong direction, walked around Xia Zhu, and walked past her.

Turn a blind eye, as if this person has never appeared in front of you.

"...!"

With a sudden pain in his heart, Xia Zhu clenched his palms slightly.

Using the corner of her eyes to glance at his back, Xia Zhu no longer turned her head to look at him like before.

Also no longer sticking to him and greeting him proactively like before.

"Well……"

Standing there for a few seconds, Xia Zhu finally gritted his teeth lightly, and quickly walked back to his seat.

However, such a meeting is only a small scene.

Afterwards, the process during class is the most tormented and embarrassing.

……

……

"click click"

The sound of the pen nib being swiped on the book kept coming.

Huang Xing carefully took notes in the book and did exercises, and the steps were methodical.

With that calm look, it seemed that he didn't care about the fact that his ex-girlfriend was sitting next to him.

"..."

However, Xia Zhu next to him was very uncomfortable.

Not to mention that because of the close distance at the same table, it is easy for the two to make eye contact.

Moreover, Xia Zhu would subconsciously look at him from time to time because of his nostalgia.

However, because Huang Xing has always been a person who doesn't show his emotions or anger.

So she couldn't figure out exactly what Huang Xing was thinking at the moment.

then--

"……Well."

Rubbing some swollen eyelids, Xia Zhu's heart moved, and he wrote a sentence in the draft pad in a "squeaky" manner.

【Lu Xing, why on earth did you want to break up with me? 】

This is a question that she hasn't figured out until now, and it has always been a hurdle in her heart.

There must be some reason for breaking up, right?
But Huang Xing dumped himself for no reason without saying anything. What does this mean?
For this reason, he also caused himself a serious illness, and cried for several days, excruciatingly painful.

And until now, Xia Zhu is still unable to get out of the shadow of broken love.

The culprit of all this is Huang Xing's fault.

... He is really hateful, annoying!
Secretly complaining in his heart, just as Xia Zhu finished writing the words on the draft paper, he was about to tear it off, fold it into a small note, and throw it to him—

"... No, I have to have a bit more backbone this time."

Just as she was about to throw out this note to "break the ice", Xia Zhu suddenly stopped what she was doing.

"Obviously he dumped me for no reason, how can I stick my face to his cold ass?"

Thinking of this, Xia Zhu secretly gritted his teeth, and quietly tore the note in his hand into several pieces.

"...As long as he doesn't take the initiative to find me, I will definitely not find him first! Hmph!"

……

……

"Students, it's time for the end of get out of class. Teacher, you have worked hard."

There was a cheerful bell for the end of get out of class on the radio.

The students in the class started to get up one after another when they heard the bell, ready to go to the cafeteria to eat.

"..."

When it was time for lunch, Huang Xing also stood up and began to pack books and other things.

However, as expected, this time, Xia Zhu did not join the two of them again, but instead stayed with Ma Xiaolan and the others.

Because Xia Zhu has already become a "big Internet celebrity", and also has contact with Ayi Xia.

That's why the girls in the class are very enthusiastic about her now, they will come to establish a relationship with her to please her, wishing to stay with her.

And in another corner of the cafeteria.

At a certain inconspicuous table, there were only two people sitting, Huang Chen and Wen Ruyu.

"You...do you feel uncomfortable?"

Taking a few mouthfuls of food with chopsticks, Huang Xing asked suddenly.

"..."

Wen Ruyu naturally knew what he was referring to.

Although she always quarreled with Xia Zhu before.

But in the past, it was always a team of three people, and suddenly one person was missing, so naturally there would be some discomfort.

but--

"No, she's gone, I don't even have time to be happy, so how can I feel unaccustomed?"

Wen Ruyu raised her chin with her hands disapprovingly, then poked the dinner plate with her chopsticks and said:
"Finally no annoying spirits will come to bother us again. I have been waiting for such a peaceful day for a long time."

"Ah... Is that so?" Huang Xing raised his eyebrows slightly.

"But……"

Suddenly, Wen Ruyu put down his chopsticks, looked at Huang Xing seriously and asked, "Ah Chen, do you feel happy?"

……

　Thank you "Sakura Yuji" for the reward!Thanks to "Two-dimensional Loyalty", "Avalon's Crown Magician", "した子", "Xiao Yang" and "Chu Chenxi" for their rewards!
