Chapter 12
Seeing the nervousness in Su Li's eyes, Gu Anze's lips curled up slightly, then he quickly stood up and let Su Li pull him towards the canteen pool.
After they walked away, Cheng Luoluo turned to look at Gu Moran, his eyes full of hatred, and his fists were clenched tightly, as if he was about to release his anger in the next second.
Gu Moran didn't care about Cheng Luoluo next to her. She knew that Pei Chengyuan didn't dare to do anything when Cheng Luoluo was there, otherwise he would be targeted by Pei Chengyuan and there would be even more trouble with Gu Anze in the future.
Gu Mo Ran sat down, picked up his chopsticks and started to slurp the noodles.
Pei Chengyuan was almost full. He looked up at Gu Moran who was diagonally opposite, and realized that she looked a little bad today, especially the bags under her eyes.
Pei Chengyuan asked: "Why are the dark circles under your eyes so heavy?"
Gu Moran raised his hand to hold the frame of the mirror without raising his head to look at him: "I couldn't sleep well last night due to insomnia."
Cheng Luoluo was already angry. After hearing their ambiguous chat, Cheng Luoluo inexplicably thought of the handsome guy who had protected Gu Moran before, so she responded angrily: "Some people are ugly but can be pretty, I don't know.
Comes the charm.”
Of course Gu Moran knew that this was about herself, but in order to prevent the protagonists from knowing about her relationship with Lu Lin, and because she was afraid that speaking too much would expose her, she could only choose to remain silent.
Cheng Luo continued to taunt: "But it seems that they just treat you as a friend. No one likes ugly people."
The two words Cheng Luo said were so quiet that Pei Chengyuan couldn't hear them at all from where he was sitting.
Gu Moran bit off the powder that had just entered her mouth. She clenched the chopsticks in her hands, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down the discomfort in her heart.
Although Pei Chengyuan didn't know what Cheng Luoluo was talking about specifically, he knew clearly that Cheng Luoluo was saying that Gu Moran was not good-looking and unattractive.
Pei Chengyuan also noticed Gu Moran's little movements, and felt that she seemed unhappy, so he started to curse: "Cheng Luoluo, shut up if you can't speak. I have long disliked you. You are good-looking but useless. My brother still doesn't want to
Look at you one more time."
Cheng Luo was so angry that her face turned red. She didn't expect that Brother Gu Anze would see her this way.
Gu Moran was also stunned for a moment, then raised his head and looked at Pei Chengyuan diagonally across from him. It could be seen that he was really angry.
For some reason, Gu Moran had a sudden thought, thinking about the way his relatives and friends around him treated him, as if he felt like he was being pampered by the group...
Su Li took Gu Anze away and never came back. Cheng Luoluo left before he had eaten enough, and they were the only two people left at the table.
After finishing his powder, Gu Moran took out a piece of paper from his pocket and wiped the oil stains on the corners of his mouth. Feeling the hot gaze, he turned his head to look and met Pei Chengyuan's eyes.
Pei Chengyuan was just looking at him, but he didn't expect Gu Moran to actually raise his head. He quickly looked away and said jokingly: "If they can be together, you will have done a lot of credit."
Just as Gu Mo Ran was about to respond to him, a boy's voice suddenly came from beside him: "Hey, didn't you say you were having dinner with Gu Anze? Why are you with a female friend?"
Gu Moran turned his head and saw several boys with similar heights. One of them had a basketball between his arms. They were classmates who often skipped class and played basketball with Pei Chengyuan.
Pei Chengyuan was afraid of being misunderstood, so he explained in a panic: "Gu Anze left beforehand. He hasn't finished his meal yet."
A boy stared at her since she stopped, which made Gu Moran feel a little uncomfortable. She picked up the bowl and told Pei Chengyuan that she had something to do and left.
The boy who was staring at Gu Moran looked away and curled his lips in disgust: "This little girl doesn't give you face. She's so draggy and not good-looking. No boy will dare to marry her in the future."
Although Pei Chengyuan didn't want to admit that she liked Gu Moran, she couldn't accept it when her friend said this.
Pei Chengyuan took two steps forward and grabbed the boy's collar. He didn't care about the friendship of playing basketball in the past, and said, "Can you be more qualified, talking about my friend behind his back like this?"
The boy's neck felt a little uncomfortable, his eyes widened angrily and he said, "Pei Chengyuan, are you sick?"
Several other boys who were watching hurriedly came over to break up the fight. Pei Chengyuan's out-of-control emotions were slowly brought back. He suddenly realized that he was angry with Gu Moran twice today, and it was within a short period of time.
–
After school in the afternoon, after saying goodbye to Su Li at the school gate, Gu Moran noticed that her shoe strings were untied. She walked through the crowd to the edge of the school fence, facing the direction where the school gate could not be seen.
Gu Moran tied up her shoe strings and stood up. Her eyes caught the sight of Lu Lin's back not far away. Lu Lin was standing at the entrance of the alley, leaning against the wall with his schoolbag slung across his body, as if he was waiting for someone.
Gu Moran walked towards Lu Lin without thinking.
Hearing footsteps stopping nearby, Lu Lin opened his eyes, but saw nothing. So he lowered his head and saw clearly that the person standing in front of him was Gu Moran.
The distance between them was so close that if Gu Moran didn't raise her head, Lu Lin could only see the top of her head.
Gu Moran raised his head, tried hard to look at Lu Lin's handsome face, and asked, "Who are you waiting for here?"
Lu Lin responded: "I beat a few dogs this morning. They were not convinced and asked me to wait here after school."
Gu Moran was stunned for a moment. Looking at the wound on his forehead that was almost healed, he was a little worried that if he continued to hit him, his face would be disfigured...
Lu Lin's Adam's apple rolled a few times, and he breathed a little quickly and asked her: "Are you a little too close to me?"
Gu Moran's face became hot, and she hurriedly took two steps back. Then her eyes fell on Lu Lin's hand with the schoolbag slung across his body. There were several scars on the back of the white hand.
It seems that I really had a fight with someone this morning.
Two minutes later, Lu Lin frowned slightly, looked at her impatiently and said, "It's none of your business, just go home."
Gu Moran didn't speak, but he could tell from Lu Lin's tone that he was suddenly so anxious to drive him away, so the people he had arranged to fight with must have arrived.
Gu Moran not only didn't listen to Lu Lin's words, she also turned around and looked at the dozen gangsters approaching menacingly not far away.
Some of them had dyed hair or tattoos on their arms, and some had cigarettes in their mouths. When some students passed by them, they were so scared that they walked to the edge of the sidewalk.
Lu Lin remembered clearly that except for the red-haired leader, the others were not the same ones as in the morning.
Gu Moran looked back at the security guard at the school gate. She said to Lu Lin without confidence, "Are you going to run with me?"
Lu Lin was stunned by her words and didn't know how to respond.
Seeing the gangster getting closer and closer, Gu Moran took off her glasses and stuffed them into the pocket of her school uniform. She continued: "If you don't run away, I will accompany you to get beaten. Anyway, I am thick-skinned and thick-skinned."
Lu Lin was almost amused. He walked up to Gu Moran and told her seriously: "Actually, I don't want to fight, but I have offended too many gangsters in the past."
Gu Moran froze slightly, looked up at Lu Lin's peach blossom eyes, and didn't understand why he wanted to explain this to him.
Then Lu Lin said again: "I'll run with you."
Gu Moran's heart beat violently several times, this time not because he thought of the Lu Lin from seven years ago, but because he was aroused by the sight of him in front of him, which made his heart beat faster.
In order to cover up his panic, Gu Moran turned his head and looked in the direction of the gangster. There was still a little distance, so it was probably too late to run now.
Gu Moran grabbed Lu Lin's arm and ran towards the school gate. When the red-haired gangster saw it, he also started running, but was stopped by his friend behind him: "There are security guards and dean of teachers there, forget it.
."
Hongmao was so angry that he cursed in a low voice. There were still bruises on his face from being beaten by Lu Lin in the morning, and even on the corners of his mouth. As a result, Hongmao didn't dare to open his mouth and speak loudly.
The friend continued: "It's nothing to do with a high school career. Don't get into trouble anymore."
Hong Mao had previously blackmailed high school students for money and injured them. He was taken to the police station to pay for medical expenses and spent another two months in jail. He had only been released for two days.
Hongmao was successfully persuaded by his friend to turn around. He turned around and opened his mouth very carefully to speak: "It's not because I care about it, it's because I feel embarrassed. I didn't win the fight with him half a year ago."
Gu Moran pulled Lu Lin and ran to the school gate to stop. She panted slightly, released her hand on Lu Lin's arm, and then looked back in the direction of the gangsters.
After seeing the gangsters leave, Gu Moran breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly she thought of the man who came to school to block her later, and she was worried that these people would do the same thing.
After arriving at the bus stop, Gu Moran took out his glasses from his pocket and put them on. He began to pretend to be the same person and asked him submissively: "Will they come to cause trouble again?"
Lu Lin lowered his head and looked at her, the corners of his mouth raised inadvertently: "Are you worried about me?"
Gu Mo Ran didn't dare to look directly into his eyes, so he looked straight ahead and responded stiffly: "No, I was just asking casually."
A few minutes later, Gu Moran suddenly remembered something. He pulled down the schoolbag he was carrying, unzipped it, took out twenty yuan, and handed it over: "I forgot it yesterday. This is the money to pay back your band-aid."
Lu Lin raised his hand to take the twenty yuan and stuffed it into his trouser pocket.
Gu Moran glanced at the wound on the back of his hand, took out a band-aid from his schoolbag, and handed it over again: "Take it, use it next time you are injured."
Lu Lin couldn't help but jokingly told her: "You said you weren't worried about me, but you started thinking about me getting hurt next time."
Gu Moran's face suddenly turned red, and the hand holding the band-aid became a little stiff. Just as she was about to take it back, Lu Lin took the band-aid first.
Not long after, the bus stopped at the stop. The two of them got on. Lu Lin put in the coins first and walked back. He stood next to the only empty seat on the bus, then looked up at the slow Gu Mo Ran, urging him.
He paused: "Come quickly, sit here."
Several passengers nearby looked at her following the voice, which made Gu Moran a little embarrassed. She quickly walked over and sat down, putting her schoolbag on her lap.
As the bus started moving, there was a female student standing next to them. She was a little pretty. She started staring at Lu Lin from the moment she got on the bus. Her eyes were a little stringy, and they almost reached Lu Lin's face.
Gu Mo Ran felt a little unhappy for no apparent reason. She turned around and glanced at the girl several times.
