Chapter 926: LAUGHING OUT LOUD
Chapter 926: LAUGHING OUT LOUD
"CAN you go ahead? I want to be alone for a while," Huang Wen said, looking up at the sky.
Luo Yan didn't say anything and just nodded. It's natural for Huang Wen to want to be alone at this moment. Since he's the one who rejected the other, it would be weird to continue to stay here. So, he walked towards the door.
But the moment he opened it, he was suddenly firmly stuck on the spot. His heart even jumped up to the point that it almost felt like he would have a sudden heart attack. Because standing in front of him was Ying Chen.
The other was standing there like a block of ice. No, like a shaking block of ice, if there was even a phrase like that. Because Ying Chen was standing still like a rock while both his hands were trembling uncontrollably. But more than that, there were obvious tears flowing down his cheeks.
Just how much did he hear? Should he have heard it all?
"You—"
Ying Chen raised his head sharply. He glared at Luo Yan before wiping his tears and running away.
Luo Yan instinctively ran towards the other. "Wait!"
But Ying Chen didn't stop and didn't even look back. He ran towards the elevator. And before Luo Yan could even catch up, the elevator door had already closed.
Seeing the close elevator door, Luo Yan let out a long and frustrated sigh. But he didn't let himself think further and just simply ran down the stairs.
If Ying Chen had heard his conversation with Huang Wen in its entirety, and he believed that he did, then the other must be feeling like shit right now. As evidence of the tears.
Really, he had no obligations to comfort Ying Chen nor was he even close to the other to do that. In the first place, he's probably the last person Ying Chen would want to comfort him. But Luo Yan just couldn't leave the other alone like this.
He ran as if he was being chased by a serial killer. Seriously, this was probably the first time he ran like this in this body. It's a good thing that his health was all better now. If not, he wouldn't be able to run like this.
He didn't know which class Ying Chen belonged to. But he knew that the other wouldn't definitely go there. He would probably go somewhere to be alone. And that wouldn't be here in this teaching building. So, Luo Yan didn't hesitate to go straight to the first floor. And facts had proven that he was right.
Because just as he stood in front of the elevator, it opened, revealing Ying Chen.
The other who just finished wiping his tears was completely dumbfounded when he saw him. Luo Yan didn't give the other time to react. Who knew if this guy would just close the elevator again? He simply no longer have the energy for another chase.
So, he pulled Ying Chen out of the elevator and dragged the other out of the teaching building.
Ying Chen barely woke up from his dazedness. By the time his brain registered what was happening, the two of them were already out of the building.
"Hey--! What are you doing? Let go of me right now!"
"I won't. So, stop struggling."
"You--!"
"We'll be the center of attention if you continue to make a ruckus right now. Do you want that? Because I don't care. I will continue to pull you like this even if other students point fingers at us."
That shut Ying Chen up. He resentfully glared at Luo Yan's back.
There were already students arriving, so if the two of them made a scene right now, many people would surely flock. Under normal circumstance, Ying Chen also wouldn't mind.
But after that last time where he purposely pushed the other in the hopes that he would be embarrassed, he didn't think it would be good to be seen as a 'villain' again. That small action completely smack him on the face that he was not only embarrassed, the school even gave him a warning.
After a brief deliberation that almost felt like forever, Ying Chen decided to just let the other pull him. But even though he conceded, his anger still continued to ferment.
Luo Yan stopped walking when they reached the side of the teaching building where there were few students passing by. And since it's morning and class hadn't started yet, there were literally no students around. He let go of Ying Chen and turned to face the other.
And he almost stepped back because of how venomous the other's glare was.
He sighed in helplessness. "Hey, I'm not your enemy here."
Ying Chen only scoffed at that. "What do you want?"
"You heard our conversation, right?" Ying Chen looked like he would growl at him the moment he said that. So, Luo Yan quickly added, "That meant that you've heard how I rejected Huang Wen quite thoroughly."
The anger fermenting inside Ying Chen finally reached a boiling point. "Hah! And so? Are you saying that I shouldn't be angry at you because it's not your fault that Ah Wen likes you?"
"Basically," Luo Yan shrugged. "Being angry at me won't do you any good. You would just waste your time and feelings, when you could have used that thinking of, I don't know, thinking of ways on how to make Huang Wen regret that he didn't realize your feelings for him sooner?"
Ying Chen could only look at the other in disbelief when he heard what he said. Even his anger popped up like a balloon because of how taken aback he was. "What are you getting at?"
"Can't you see? As a senior in the love department, I'm giving you love advice," Luo Yan said in a very confident manner. Even tapping his chest proudly.
Ying Chen now only felt helplessly annoyed. "Can I punch you right now?"
Luo Yan held both cheeks as if he was petrified by the thought. "Of course not! How can you even think of doing that to my pretty face?"
Seeing the other's expression, Ying Chen actually found himself laughing out loud.
