Chapter 704 - 702: Unfortunate Xu Fei
So, at this very moment he made a decision to slip away when he got the chance. Leaving through the front door was not an option, as it was class break time and running into other students would be a disaster, akin to a rat crossing the street with everyone shouting to hit it.
In the end, Xu Fei decided to retrace his original path.
So he first stuck his head out to check, but as soon as Xu Fei peeked out, he saw a bucket flying towards him, landing squarely on his head.
"Wushuang, let’s beat him up, he’s definitely a thief."
Lu Xiaoyu, that mischievous elf, had already calculated that the thief would be hiding behind the door, so she took a bucket and a broom from the nearby restroom. As soon as Xu Fei peeked out again, she slapped the bucket on him and started hitting him hard.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch."
Xu Fei shouted in a string of cries but didn’t dare to speak because speaking would give him away.
So Xu Fei endured the pain of being hit with the broom and finally managed to remove the bucket in a fluster. Without caring much, he pushed forward with all his strength, hitting Lu Xiaoyu right in the chest.
"Ah?"
Lu Xiaoyu was caught off guard and ended up being groped, which surprised her. She instinctively stepped back, bumping into Lin Wushuang and both of them fell to the ground.
At this moment, only Lu Xiaoyu’s voice could be heard: "Ow, my butt, it hurts so much."
"Xiaoyu, what happened, are you alright?" Lin Wushuang, seeing Lu Xiaoyu lying there on all fours, quickly helped her up and asked with concern.
"It hurts, my butt."
Lu Xiaoyu had really fallen hard this time. She thought she could give that person a good beating, only to be unexpectedly pushed down.
The doorway was already a bit slippery, so she fell precisely and painfully.
"Ah?... Xiaoyu, let me help you up."
Seeing Lu Xiaoyu almost in tears from the fall, Lin Wushuang felt a pain in her heart and rushed to help her up. It was then that they noticed the person who had pushed Xiaoyu was escaping quickly through a gap in the security net.
After helping Lu Xiaoyu to the side, Lin Wushuang was furious. She looked around, picked up the bucket that had been on the person’s head, and quickly ran into the bathroom. In no time, she filled it halfway with water.
She ran to the balcony, glanced down, and immediately saw a person with a black veil over their face about to land and make their escape. Without a word, she dumped the half-bucket of cold water down.
Xu Fei had just thought he’d escaped, gloating to himself, when suddenly a splash of cold water came pouring down on him, drenching him like a drowned rat, and he sneezed several times. But given the urgency, he couldn’t afford to linger, so he jumped over the side wall and made a quick retreat.
This wretched appearance was as embarrassing as it was ugly.
So Xu Fei hid by the ruins, then pulled his phone out of his pocket and dialed someone’s number.
"Hello! Is this Xiaomin? Hurry to the side road by South Sea No.1 Middle School and wait for me. I’ve been royally messed up by these two stinking girls, Lin Wushuang and Lu Xiaoyu." Xu Fei started complaining as soon as the call connected, speaking to the person he called a little punk, Fang Xiaomin.
Despite appearing like a punk, Fang Xiaomin was actually a decent person. She was also a sophomore at South Sea No.1, just uninterested in studying.
"Brother Fei, you got messed up by those two girls, hahaha." Fang Xiaomin burst into laughter when she heard Xu Fei’s grumbling, rather than consoling him.
"Oh, stop laughing, hurry up and drive over here and pick me up, I’m freezing to death, and you’re still making fun of me." Xu Fei said irritably.
But he knew Xiaomin was just being contrary in her words. They’d known each other for so long, she’d definitely help him out and wouldn’t revel in his misfortune.
"Okay, okay, wait for ten minutes. I’m just playing billiards at the arcade nearby, let me finish this game first." Fang Xiaomin replied unhurriedly.
"Playing billiards, playing billiards my ass, hurry up, you little ancestor, or I’ll catch a cold." Xu Fei was exasperated, wondering how Xiaomin could still be so leisurely playing around. Didn’t they agree to handle an important matter today? How could she forget it all?
However, Xu Fei knew that Fang Xiaomin’s character was always carefree and quite indulgent given her whims.
Had he not found her drunk on the sports field that day and taken advantage of her when she was discovered, they might not have ended up hanging out together, eventually developing feelings over time.
Having learned about her experiences, Xu Fei felt some sympathy, so he decided to help her.
"Alright, alright, relax, I’m coming over, okay?" Fang Xiaomin originally intended to tease him, but seeing him so anxious, decided not to.
"Mm, hurry up and get here. Remember to bring my clothes, I’m soaked to the bone." Xu Fei knew she’d been at his rented place, so she’d have his clothes. They often spent intimate time together, leaving plenty of clothes at Xiaomin’s.
"Got it."
Fang Xiaomin didn’t want to bring up those matters again, as Xu Fei had not sought her out alone for a while. Except this time when he suddenly asked for help, out of friendship, she agreed, though she wasn’t inclined to meddle in whatever he was dealing with or why he needed to take photos.
After they ended the call, it took about fifteen minutes for a FAW Volkswagen car to arrive. It was a car Xiaomin bought herself, though she didn’t have much savings, and she was on bad terms with her family now, living expenses included some help from Xu Fei.
Of course, Xu Fei paid for the car. After all, her body was his; he had to offer a grand gesture in return.
However, gifting was one thing, but Xu Fei knew he couldn’t spend too much on one woman, as he was still studying. If Elder Xu found out, he’d be in deep trouble for being out there squandering money supporting a woman.
Thus, he reluctantly spent that hundred thousand yuan to buy Fang Xiaomin a FAW Volkswagen, which would have to do.
When the Volkswagen stopped, a slim woman got out. Xu Fei, who was shivering in his wet clothes and hiding on one side, instantly felt warmth just looking at Fang Xiaomin’s sizzling figure.
So, when Xiaomin handed him the clothes, Xu Fei couldn’t hold back anymore and tried to embrace her, but she immediately stopped him by a stern kick to Xu Fei’s front end, sneering, "Get dressed quickly, or you’ll catch a cold. Don’t blame me if that happens."
"Hehe, if I don’t blame you for catching a cold, how would I get warmed up?" Xu Fei chuckled slyly, implying more than his words said.
"Oh..."
Fang Xiaomin, being clever, obviously caught the hidden meaning in Xu Fei’s words and teased back, "Cold as you are, can you even get up? Didn’t they say heat expands and cold contracts?"
