Becoming The White Lotus Queen Of The Noble Academy Chapter 28
byChapter 28 28[VIP]
Apples taste very sweet.
Tan Quelu ate two in a row on the way back.
Wei Guan bought these at short notice. There was an old man setting up a fruit stall on the street opposite the commercial vehicle. He got out of the car and picked out a few of the most beautiful ones, washed them, packed them in bags, and sent them over.
Because they had to catch a flight, the two had to separate without saying a few words.
Wei Guan sent Qie Lu to the back door of the dormitory and looked at his old short-sleeved shirt: “The color of the clothes suits you very well.”
“Is there any color that doesn’t suit me?” Tan Quelu asked and answered herself immodestly: “Sorry, the answer is: no.”
Wei Guan wanted to laugh again.
He had wanted to laugh more recently than he had in the past twenty-seven years.
“Have you finished chasing “Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf”?”
“Not yet, but it’s too long and I want to watch something else.”
Weiguan nodded: “Remember to watch popular science films too. Especially emotional logic explanations for ages five to ten, and adolescent sex/education for ages fifteen to eighteen.”
His expression didn’t waver at all when he said this, and his tone was very businesslike.Tan Quelu said nothing and suddenly asked him: “Wei Guan, have you ever been married?”
Wei Guan looked at him: “I am unmarried, have no children, and have no love history.”
“Ah…” Tan Quelu looked at him subtly, and took a bite of the apple: “My boyfriend is going to get married after he graduates at the age of eighteen. Why are you twenty-seven and you haven’t gotten married yet?”
He feels that Wei Guan is much better than F3, and he is also very handsome.
Wei Guan stared at him for a moment and repeated quietly: “Your boyfriend is going to get married.”
“Yes, Zhong Wan will get married after graduation.” Quelu blinked: “This is his grandfather’s decision and cannot be changed. His mother gave me one million today and said she would give me money every month in the future.”
Wei Guan was sure that there was no negative emotion in Quelu’s tone.
But this is not the reason why the Zhong family despises him so much.
“Take as much as I can give you.”
The young man looked calmly: “What else did they say to you.”
Tan Quelu swallowed the apple and waved her hand: “Who remembers this? I forgot everything except making money.”
It doesn’t sound like there’s any intention of breaking up.
According to Tan Quelu’s own logic, no one else can persuade him to do anything.To some extent, he is more stubborn and persistent than AI.
Wei Dian nodded and said nothing more.I glanced at my watch and saw that I didn’t have time to stay any longer.
“I’m really leaving. Tell the kitchen what you want to eat tomorrow, and remember to take pictures for me.”
“Okay.” Tan Quelu nodded, took out a green apple and gave it to him, with a pure smile: “Eat an apple, and have a safe journey.”
The man pushed back gently, pinched his soft palm with his fingertips, his expression unchanged.
“Don’t eat your own kind.”
…
It was only after Tan Quelu returned to the dormitory that she understood what Wei Guan meant.
He stood in front of the mirror, looked at his clothes, and asked the system: “Am I dressed like Green Apple today?”
[It’s a little bit, but the host looks good in anything he wears!】
That goes without saying.
Quelu nodded in approval, put the remaining apples in the refrigerator, and went to take elective courses as usual the next day.
Aunt Chen stood beside him silently.
When Qinglu was practicing the piano, she looked at him in amazement. After finishing, she couldn’t help but praise him: “Qinglu, you are really good. You will definitely be admitted to Capital University.”
——The young man’s expression when playing the piano is rare and alienated. His spine and the back of his neck are thin, and his pure eyebrows are hidden between his porcelain white face. Looking from a distance, it looks like a piece of cold moonlight.
Extremely unattainable.
When Tan Quelu heard this, she smiled cutely and said thank you like a baby.
The words fell.
A female voice came in gently, with a light smile: “Your name is Quelu?”
Aunt Chen paused.
Tanquelu turned around and saw a thin, tall and beautiful woman standing at the door of the villa. She had long black hair and an apricot-colored dress. She looked over like a flower branch with a gentle attitude.
“Green-backed chickadee?”
Tan Quelu hummed and looked at her curiously.
Aunt Chen introduced him: “Qinglu, this is Mr. Wei’s mother——”
“Aunt Chen, go and do your work.” Wei Xuanyun walked in and said casually: “I’m taking him to dinner. Is it to the place where Xiaoguan always lives?”
Aunt Chen took half a step forward, stood in front of Tan Quelu, and said respectfully and insistently: “Madam, Mr. Wei asked me to accompany you the whole time.”
“…Dare to stop me.” Wei Xuanyun looked at her with a smile but not a smile: “How much money did Xiaoguan give you, why are you so dedicated?”
Aunt Chen’s expression was as hard as iron: “One hundred thousand a day.”
She will protect the bird green today even to the death!
“…”
That’s a lot indeed.
Wei Xuanyun was silent for a moment and nodded: “Okay… Then I’ll eat with him. No one in such a big family has time to accompany me. It’s too boring.”
Aunt Chen turned her head and asked with her eyes what Tan Quelu meant.
Tan Quelu blinked, showed a pure and kind smile, nodded and agreed: “I can do it, sister, let’s eat together.”
The three people went to the previous place as usual.
Today’s recipes are butter-fried steak, sand tea shrimp and bamboo shoots pot, mango and green papaya salad, and freshly squeezed pineapple and apple juice.
Tan Quelu took a picture and sent it to Weiguan to check in.Wei Guan responded to him instantly with several live photos of the welfare home.
In fact, Weiguan just asked the staff to add Qinglu WeChat, but neither of them seemed to have thought of this, and they still communicated three times a day.
Wei Xuanyun forked a piece of fresh mango and looked at the bird on the other side of the dining table: “Are you chatting with Xiaoguan?”
Que Lu hummed, with a simple expression: “Yes. Mr. Wei is a very nice person and is very concerned about my life.”
“…You don’t even have to report to him what you eat, do you?”
“Yes.” Quelu blinked, looking very trusting to Wei Guan: “Mr. Wei is afraid that I only eat in the cafeteria every day, and I have to give him three meals a day for inspection. Mr. Wei is also worried that I can’t wear it well, so he even customized the school uniform for me. The size is just right.”
“My boyfriend can’t do this. Mr. Wei is such a good person.”
“…” Wei Xuanyun’s expression cracked: “Do you have a boyfriend?”
“Yes.” Tan Quelu looked at her innocently: “Mr. Wei also knows that he is always worried that my relationship with my boyfriend is not good. Sister, Mr. Wei is really cold-faced and hot-hearted.”
She must have a cold face and a hot face.
Wei Xuanyun fell into a long silence.
The psychopath is suspected of wanting to take bullets. He is very controlling and reports three meals a day. He knows the boy’s size very well. He knows that he has a boyfriend and is still looking at him to try to gain some leverage…
In the past, Wei Guan only focused on work, and there were no cats or dogs around him. He was calm and distant, as if he could be a frigid virgin for the rest of his life.
But Wei Xuanyun never expected that his heart would be so twisted that he could have such dirty thoughts towards a poor and innocent eighteen-year-old child…
She turned her head and looked at Aunt Chen.
The other party had obviously known about it for a long time. He lowered his head and pretended to be stupid while eating, feeling very guilty.
hehe.
After the three of them finished eating, Wei Xuanyun sent Tan Quelu to the door.
The woman reached out, gently touched his hair, and handed over a business card.
Tan Quelu lowered his head and saw a line of cold and hard fonts: [Close Combat Coach: XX/Telephone: XXXXX.]
“This is a professional friend of mine.”
Wei Xuanyun looked at him softly and sighed with pity: “If you have time, you can go and learn.”
What if one day Wei Guanshou becomes lustful and tries to force a relationship with him.
Wei Xuanyun hoped that Tan Quelu could beat Wei Guan into an elderly eunuch with one punch.
…
When Tan Quelu returned to her dormitory, she happened to receive a call from Zhongjia Hospital.
The nurse asked softly on the other end: “Are you Mr. Tan Quelu Tan?”
“It’s me, who are you?”
The other party said cautiously: “This is the Zhong Family Hospital. That’s it. The young master has been calling your name since he was unconscious yesterday. He has been calling your name when he was unconscious. Do you have time to come to the hospital?”
Tan Quelu then remembered that F1 was still in a coma.
He groaned, frowned, and his tone was worried, but he couldn’t hide his low tone: “I also want to see him, but school is still in session…and Mrs. Zhong told me something that day, and I may need some time to buffer.”
The nurse immediately understood and nodded in understanding: “Okay, then I won’t disturb you. Goodbye.”
“Goodbye.”
Tan Quelu hung up the phone, thought for a moment, and asked the system: [How many times will positive emotions fluctuate before F1 fully awakens its memory?】
The system weakly explained: [Host, emotions fluctuate and cannot be quantified.】
[Just like the world cannot really be like a strategy game, where 100 points of favorability are displayed above the head of each character, the emotional fluctuations of F3 people cannot be quantified.】
[I can only give a rough range: when F1’s feelings for you reach the peak of his own understanding and no longer have any doubts, wavers, or give up, he will think of everything in the second week.】
Tan Quelu: “So, when he is willing to die for me, that is when he awakens his memory.”
Just like those devout believers in the temple in the past, even though they watched so many people collapse, defraud all their wealth, and call the police, they still believed in them unswervingly and were willing to die for them.
The mind is manipulated, the soul is dedicated to God, fanatically and fearlessly.
At this point, it doesn’t matter whether the other party has memory or not.
The system stammered: [Well, you can put it this way… Host, what are you going to do?】
Why does it feel that talking about sparrow green is wrong?
[Our mission is to ensure the safety of the protagonist, to avoid getting perfect scores, being bullied, and committing suicide by jumping off the building.】
[As long as these are completed, the bonus and money will belong to the host, and the host can be reborn in the original world.】
[Or the host can stay here if he wants. I will protect the host’s body after jumping off the building. In a few years, the host will quietly enter college and leave Weiss City, and he can have a new life of glory and wealth.】
Tan Quelu nodded indifferently and said, “Let’s talk about it then.”
The system felt relieved and said: [Okay host, then I will step down!】
There were footsteps outside the door.
When Tan Quelu opened the door, she saw several clerks from luxury stores. They were working together to push out a row of clothes hangers from Xia Xing’s room. On the hangers hung a brand new suit with fine glitter.
The suit looks like a high-end custom-made one, at least six figures.
Xia Xing stood behind with no expression on his face, watching them take their suits downstairs, carefully load into the car and leave.
Tan Quelu blinked: “Xiaoxing, what are you doing?”
Xia Xing turned around and looked at him with a smile: “It’s nothing. I just sold some clothes that I can’t wear.”
“Selling clothes?” Tan Quelu was surprised, frowned and stepped forward, staring at him seriously: “This should be what you want to wear at the welcome banquet, right? Just sell it anyway. If you are in trouble, come to me, I have money.”
“How can I ask for yours?” Xia Xing shook his head and said indifferently: “I don’t wear these clothes on any occasion, so I might as well sell them.”
This dress was tailor-made by him at the handicraft shop last time. The purpose was to shine at the welcome banquet and amaze everyone. It was best to successfully approach Zhong Wan and strike up a conversation or leave an impression with him.
But plans can’t keep up with changes.
Xia Xing did not expect that Qie Lu would become Zhong Wan’s boyfriend, nor did she expect that she would be so unhappy.
Maybe he shouldn’t have stopped Zhong Wan at the school gate from the beginning, because then he wouldn’t have lied for his sake. He was actually the source of their acquaintance indirectly.
Fate really plays tricks on people.
Quelu looked at him worriedly: “But you sold your clothes, what will you wear at the welcome party?”
“Whatever you wear, I will wear.”
Xia Xing saw that he was so worried about her, and the resentment in her heart disappeared. Instead, she smiled and said, “Qinglu, you are wearing your old T-shirt again, right?”
Tan Quelu pursed her lips in embarrassment: “Yes. I’m used to these, and I can’t get used to wearing expensive things.”
Xia Xing looked at him and suddenly sighed, looking at him as if he were looking at a good, simple and kind boy who would never grow up.
He took two steps forward, put a card into Qinglu’s hand, and said in a relaxed and melancholy tone: “There are three hundred thousand here, take it and buy some clothes.”
“Those young men have been unhappy recently, and they are just waiting for the welcome party to tease the special admissions students. You are already Zhong Wan’s boyfriend, so no matter how you dress, you must be presentable.”
“Otherwise, others will think that Zhong Wan has lost interest in you, and they might want to punish you.”
Quelu held the card and was not happy. Instead, she stared at him worriedly: “Xiao Xing, what’s wrong with you?”
This money is obviously the money Xia Xing paid for selling clothes. He gave Tan Quelu so much last time, and he gave it again this time. Could it be that he really became Tan Quelu’s ATM slave?
Xia Xing shook his head and just asked him: “The forum said that Zhong Wan was in a coma, so will he still attend the welcome banquet?”
Although Xia Xing hopes that Zhong Wan will die soon, it is best to die by his own hands and become a flesh-and-blood ladder for him to go higher.
“Probably so.”
Tan Quelu was not sure: “He is actually fine. He will wake up in about two days. The welcome banquet is an important social place in St. Weston, and the Zhong family will not allow him to be absent.”
Xia Xing nodded thoughtfully.
Tan Quelu’s prediction was correct.
Zhong Wan woke up on the third day after coma.
It was early in the morning when I woke up, the bedside lights were soft, and the instruments gave off a glimmer of light.
The central air conditioner adjusts the humidity purity to the optimal level, and the spacious ward is silent and empty.
The blond boy opened his eyes, with glucose hanging on the back of his hand, and the pain in his neck filled the air like a tide.
He seemed to have had a very long dream, but when he woke up, his mind was blank and he couldn’t remember anything.
He just instinctively thought of Tan Quelu’s face.
Pure, full of smiles, anxious and crying because of herself.
Zhong Wan took a deep breath and turned her head with difficulty, trying to find Tan Quelu’s figure around her.It was his fault that he fainted in front of Quelu in public. Quelu loved and cared about him so much. He must have been so worried that he couldn’t sleep these days, right?
Are you staying up all night watching over him?
Are you unable to eat and are you starving and losing weight?
Do you cry every day, hold his hand and beg him to wake up?
He must comfort him and tell him not to be afraid.
He will not die, and he will live with Quelu for the rest of his life.
Zhong Wan glanced around the ward hopefully.
But there was nothing in the spacious room, just like in those painful years, no one came.
no one ising.
His slight movement woke up the nurse who was keeping watch at the door.The door opened, the lights were on, and several nurses hurriedly stepped forward to support the person carefully: “Master, please slow down, the doctor will come over soon to check-”
“Bird…green…”
The boy’s eyes were bloodshot, and he looked at the nurse with a frightening look. His voice was hoarse and stubborn: “Where is the green bird…”
The nurse met his eyes, breathed softly, and said cautiously: “Master, it’s already early in the morning… Mr. Tan has to go to school, and he’s not here.”
He’s not here.
It’s early morning.
Yes.
Bird greens want to sleep.
And it’s hard to take time off in St. Weston.
Quelu is a special admissions student, so she must have been stuck by the security guards and couldn’t get out at night.
Zhong Wan quickly and automatically found all the reasons for talking about love, rationalizing the rapid sinking of his heart at that moment. He told himself not to look like a poor dog in front of outsiders.
Zhong Wan only acted like a dog in front of Tan Quelu.
Seeing that he stopped talking, the nurse quickly asked the doctor who came in to check his body.However, the young man turned his head, his eyes were indifferent, and his voice was cold: “Get out.”
He seemed to have turned back into the young Master Zhong in an instant.
“Master…”
“Don’t make me repeat it a second time.”
Everyone knows Zhong Wan’s temper, and no one can control him when he gets into trouble.The nurse and doctor did not dare to persuade her any more, so they quickly closed the door and silently exited the ward.
The air conditioner is blowing overhead.
Zhong Wan half leaned on the hospital bed, regained some strength, stretched out her hand, and pulled off the infusion needle on the back of her hand.
The force was too rough, and blood instantly splashed from the needle hole, causing sudden and sharp pain.
The pain was sobering.
Zhong Wan felt that his mind was finally no longer as if it were falling into mist, and it was so hazy.
That pure porcelain white face is also clearer.
Want to see him.
Want to hold him.
I want to tell him that he misses him so much.
This desire is so clear and urgent, rushing through reason and roaring with turbulent emotions.
Zhong Wan got up and slowly opened the door to the ward.
The nurse at the door was stunned and stood up: “Master, why are you up?”
“Prepare the car.” Zhong Wan interrupted him, expressionless: “Go back to St. Weston.”
The nurses looked at each other and did not dare to move: “Master, Director Zhong has told you that you must stay in the ward when you wake up, keep your spirits up, and then leave after the physical examination is fine.”
It’s the same thing again.
He was locked up in the ward, never visited, surrounded by cold machines, and ignored his crying and beatings.
Treat it like a domestic dog.
“I said, go back to St. Weston.”
The nurse had no choice but to cleverly inform Mr. Zhong directly.In less than five minutes, a call came into Zhong Wan’s mobile phone.
The boy picked up.
“What are you going to do?”
Zhong Wan smiled and said in a light voice, “Grandpa, I just want to go back to school.”
“Have you lost your head in love?” Zhong Lin pinched his brows tiredly and was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore. He just said: “Okay, but don’t play with the Zhong family’s prestige.”
After saying that, he hung up the phone and ordered everyone not to listen to Zhong Wan’s orders.
These years have really given Zhong Wan too much room for arrogance, making him mistakenly believe that he can really be lawless.
He wanted to see how the pampered and aloof Young Master Zhong could act arbitrarily after losing all his privileges.
Privilege is an addiction. If he takes it back for one night, even the toughest bones can be subdued.
The phone was hung up.
In less than a moment, the nurses in front of them seemed to have suddenly received some kind of pardon. Their expressions relaxed and they were no longer tense and afraid.
The doctor who arrived also took a breath, put away his cell phone, turned his head, looked at Zhong Wan with a smile, and said respectfully: “Master, please go back to the ward quickly. I will check your body right away.”
“By the way, the old man asked you to hand in your phone.”
Zhong Wan looked at him with cold eyes: “If I don’t pay, can you kill me?”
“…Young master is joking.”
The doctor was startled by the anger in his eyes and quickly lowered his head, with a flash of embarrassment on his face: “For your health, I suggest you rest first.”
Zhong Wan looked around.
According to his past temper, he would definitely smash this place to pieces for his so-called self-esteem.His father is a useless young man who makes jokes every year. He doesn’t want anyone to look down on him and his mother, so his temper has become more twisted and cold over the years.
Contempt is a very subtle malice, and only those who have experienced it can be sensitive to it.
Zhong Wan has experienced too much such malice since childhood, and hates being ignored, scorned, and teased.He will crush them directly with the simplest violence.
But at this moment, he had no time to care about this.
The self-esteem that used to be as heavy as a mountain can actually become as light as a mist.It was as if something else had settled in his heart, giving him a strong and surging pride.
The pride of being loved.
The pride of having someone shoulder to shoulder.
Zhong Wan stopped talking, nodded, threw away the phone, and returned to the ward.
The smile on the doctor’s face has not yet fully appeared.
The blond boy had already opened the door, holding the bottle of water on the bedside with one hand, turned around, and walked into the corridor elevator without looking back.
He was wearing a hospital gown and had not changed his shoes. There were scarlet blood stains on the back of his pale hands. He had nothing but pride.
The elevator door slowly closed.
The nurses were stunned and hurried to see a doctor.
“Ignore him!” The doctor said with an ugly face: “We only listen to the old man’s words. Besides, he doesn’t have a car key or a servant, so how can he make trouble?”
“It’s just the temper of a young master who is putting on airs!”
Zhong Wan took the elevator all the way downstairs and walked out of the hospital.
It’s almost October, and the air in the early morning is slightly cooler and extremely humid.The night wind blew away the golden hair, revealing the boy’s young and unruly eyebrows.
He suddenly remembered the birthday night he spent with Quelu.
Also late at night, he took him riding across the sea-crossing bridge and heard hearty laughter in the back seat. They passed by a crowd of strangers and came to the lonely other side, looking at each other quietly.
Maybe he was destined to fall in love with him from the beginning.
It’s all doomed.
Zhong Wan walked forward in silence, walking faster and faster.Stepping over gravel and weeds, over uninhabited paths, and onto asphalt roads.
The blisters are worn out and the water is finished.The horizon is slowly illuminated, and the morning sun rises like red magma and falls gently on the face, so warm.
Half past six in the morning.
After Tan Quelu washed up and changed clothes, she went to the cafeteria to eat with her backpack.
As soon as I walked downstairs, I heard a very soft and familiar call from behind.
“Sparrow green.”
Talk about being green and look back.
The blond boy stood under the tree a few steps away, his face pale and his forehead covered with sweat, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing him looking over in surprise.
Zhong Wan finally bent his eyes, and after a few seconds, showed an extremely cheerful smile.
“I miss you so much.”
he said with a smile.
The author has something to say:
Yeah, six weeks to the day.
Yes, give me the nutrient solution (open your mouth domineeringly) (Ah—)
