Chapter 162. Luo Ruoqing
Arc 6 : Sci-fi Rom-com Movie Nightmare
The rumor that Du Yan was possessed by an evil spirit made him an outcast on campus.
After all, Tang Liang and his gang were considered school bullies, spreading such words means that they were somewhat afraid of Du Yan.
Regardless of whether other people in the school thought that Tang Liang made up this rumor about being possessed by an evil spirit just to save face or for some other reason, the existence of Du Yan became something that people avoided.
After the bell rang, Du Yan tidied up his desk, stood up, and walked out of the classroom.
The group of people blocking the classroom door saw Du Yan coming, and all took a few steps back to make way for him.
Du Yan saw those people stealing glances at him with a trembling look on their faces, and he thought it looked quite interesting.
These past few days, the situation has made Du Yan feel extremely comfortable. Thinking back to the time since he entered school, he was in a state of mental confusion. His homework was often torn up, his books were scribbled all over, and even if he was just walking quietly in the corridor, he would often trip over something.
In comparison, this feeling of being avoided by everyone was actually better.
Du Yan bought some milk bread for dinner at the canteen and walked to a quiet little garden in a remote corner of the campus to sit down.
This garden was the place where he communicated with the mysterious Sagoru man two days ago. The virtual meteor shower left Du Yan with a very fond memory.
From that time on, whenever he wanted to rest quietly, he would come to this place.
Du Yan tore open the bread bag and turn on his phone, ready to casually browse to kill time. He took a bite of the bread and then stopped.
Du Yan’s eyes fell on the screen, and he was a little surprised that the app he had deleted was once again back.
Seeing the app on his phone again, Du Yan no longer felt the annoyance he had the previous times when he thought it was malware. He just felt a little funny and a little apologetic.
The Sagoru people are quite persistent. After he deleted the software without any mercy, the other party actually installed it again
Thinking about the quiet time he had gained these days because of Zeus, Du Yan felt that he should express his gratitude instead of directly and ruthlessly deleting him again.
Du Yan raised his hand and opened the app, and soon he saw again that face, which he had only seen a few times but felt very familiar to him.
Before Du Yan could speak, he saw that the expressionless Zeus became anxious.
He said: “I’m sorry, I was too reckless before. I’m not a rogue, nor am I malware.”
“I helped you remove the Trojan on your phone, and I also upgraded your phone. No malware would do these things, right? And as for the matter of compatible partner, it doesn’t matter if you don’t accept it. Let’s be friends first…”
Du Yan couldn’t help smiling when he saw Zeus’s expressionless face but his anxious explanation with a very fast speed.
Zeus was stunned. This was the first time he saw Du Yan smile.
Zeus is a person who never shows his emotions, he rarely expresses himself and speaks a few words.
When he first met Du Yan, he thought his ideal partner had a similar personality to him, a cold person with few expressions and few words.
However, when he saw Du Yan smile for the first time, Zeus thought that this person looked really good when he smiled, so good that it made his heart beat faster.
Du Yan was smiling, but then he felt something was wrong.
He saw the strange lines on Zeus’s face on the screen, gradually brightening. That color was really too girlish, and paired with this manly face, it was a bit hard to look at.
Du Yan asked with a smile: “Actually, I have always been curious about why the strange lines on your face light up in certain situations?”
The Sagoru people can not lie, and they can avoid answering questions they don’t want to talk about, but this is a critical moment to establish a friendship, and Zeus can’t avoid answering Du Yan’s questions.
He had no choice but to tell him frankly: “I told you before that the Sagoru people can not tell lies. In fact, the most fundamental reason is these veined patterns on our faces. The lines light up in different colors to fully represent our mood at the moment.”
“Oh?” Du Yan became more and more curious as he listened. He was already a little mature for his age, but after meeting the mysterious alien, he regained some of his youthful mentality.
Du Yan asked: “What does the pink color on your face mean?”
Zeus felt a little embarrassed. He thought that if the other party knew that he felt shy when he saw him smile, the other party might think he was a rogue or a malware.
He really didn’t want to be forcibly disconnected anymore, that feeling would be very frustrating.
Just when Zeus was in a dilemma, Du Yan’s phone was suddenly taken away from him.
Du Yan frowned slightly, raised his head, and saw a young and beautiful face.
He was slightly stunned, and it took him some time to find the corresponding name from his memory: “Luo Ruoqing?”
Luo Ruoqing raised her eyebrows with a look of disdain: “I heard them say that you, Du Yan, are crazy, but I didn’t believe it. I didn’t expect it to be true. From a distance I saw you holding a mobile phone and smiling foolishly, it’s really interesting.”
Du Yan was too lazy to respond to her and just said: “Give me back my phone.”
Luo Ruoqing shook the phone in her hand and said: “Hah, It’s such a crappy phone and I don’t even want to get my hands dirty, but I am actually interested in what you are looking at.”
She lowered her head to check his phone, but Du Yan grabbed her wrist.
Luo Ruoqing only felt that her wrist was pinched, and it hurt a little. Seeing Du Yan’s expressionless face and thinking about the recent rumors, she couldn’t help but panic.
However, Luo Ruoqing was always arrogant in front of Du Yan, so how could she show weakness? She said loudly: “Du Yan, you are really uneducated. You are so rude to a girl.”
Du Yan just stared into her eyes and repeated word by word: “Give me back my phone.”
Luo Ruoqing was so frightened that she let go of his phone, and it almost fell to the ground.
Du Yan was quick to let go of Luo Ruoqing and grabbed the phone in mid-air that was almost touching the ground. He put the phone back into his pocket and took a few steps back to distance himself from Luo Ruoqing.
After doing all this, he glanced at Luo Ruoqing nonchalantly and asked: “Need something?”
These two words, without any tone fluctuations in his voice, inexplicably made Luo Ruoqing feel as if she was here to annoy others. She was furious, but she remembered the strength with which Du Yan had pinched her wrist just now, and she did not dare to get close to him again.
“I just came to see how you play tricks.”
Du Yan did not deny it and said: “If you hadn’t been targeting me, I wouldn’t have done this.”
Luo Ruoqing sneered and said: “Don’t you know why I’m targeting you?”
Du Yan said: “I really don’t understand. After entering high school, my tuition was fully exempted, and my living expenses came from scholarships. I don’t understand what you are dissatisfied with?”
Luo Ruoqing: “Your presence is very annoying. I feel upset when I see you. I think of your haunting mother!”
Du Yan suddenly raised his eyes and looked over. His sinister look made Luo Ruoqing take a step back unconsciously.
“Can you say it again?”
Her voice was trembling, but she still managed to say: “The truth is, you guys have been spending my family’s money, so why can’t I be dissatisfied with you?”
Du Yan frowned and said: “Although I don’t want to admit it, your father and I are related by blood. Legally speaking, he has an obligation to support me, so it’s not that I spend your family’s money.”
Luo Ruoqing still argued: “Your father married into my family, and everything he has is under the Luo surname.”
Du Yan continued lightly: “If you are dissatisfied, I can even take you to court and let the law decide. Your father also has to make up for the child support over the years and raise me until I was 18. Of course, when he gets old, I will fulfill my obligation to support him, and I will pay whatever the court orders.”
Luo Ruoqing was choked by his words. She even began to wonder if what Tang Liang said about him being possessed by an evil spirit was true.
Du Yan in front of her was so different, like a completely different person. Before, when she was in a bad mood and wanted to trouble Du Yan, he would just lower his head and dare not say a word.
Du Yan had never refuted her so eloquently before. Luo Ruoqing also knew that her reason was somewhat untenable, but she had more reasons.
Enough to smash the reason for the existence of this irksome presence.
Luo Ruoqing sneered and said: “I don’t have to target you. Just pay off the money you owe my family over the years, and I will treat it as if you and I have nothing to do with each other. If you can’t pay it back, you can just take the initiative to disappear from my sight and leave this city. How about that?”
Du Yan felt something was wrong and asked: “Pay back the money? What do you mean?”
Luo Ruoqing finally felt a sense of satisfaction that she had gained the upper hand. She smiled proudly and said: “You will know after you take a look.”
After saying that, Luo Ruoqing took out her cell phone and tapped a few times.
The phone in Du Yan’s pocket vibrated. He took it out and opened it. He found a picture on WeChat. The handwriting on it was very familiar to him.
Luo Ruoqing said: “How is it? You can recognize your mother’s handwriting, right? It is clearly written in black and white on the IOU that she owes my family one million. Now that your mother is dead, of course, you have to pay off this debt.”
Du Yan stared at the picture in silence. Luo Ruoqing was right. This was indeed his mother’s handwriting, and the loan date was the year he fell seriously ill.
Luo Ruoqing continued aggressively: “Of course you can also act dumb and say that the debts of parents should not fall on the children. After all, your mother didn’t leave you much money. But if that’s the case, just get out of school outrightly, and I will take it as using a million dollars to buy peace of mind.
“I see.”
Luo Ruoqing finally felt proud. She smiled and said: “Think about it carefully. Pay me back or get out of here. I’ll wait for your answer.”
