Chapter 60: That would be strange

Lu Jingyao was full of justice and wanted Xia Yue to call Watching Wen Leyu, but Xia Yue refused timidly.

"I... I don't dare to go. I'm afraid of Li Ye."

"Why?"

Lu Jingyao found Xia Yue's appearance very strange.

Her best friend had been a young general and had been a class monitor for three years. In the past, she had much more momentum than Lu Jingyao, and there was never anything she "didn't dare" to do.

Xia Yue lowered her head and said aggrievedly: "I had a conflict with Li Ye because of my studies...

I don't know how he talked to the teacher, but the teacher forced me to call my parents before he let me go... I just hope I can successfully complete the college entrance exam..."

It had to be said that Xia Yue, who had rich experience, had quite a bit of skill in speaking. Just a few words established Li Ye's image as a "big bully."

"This... how is that possible?"

Lu Jingyao simply couldn't believe it. Although Li Ye also had a bit of a temper in the past and occasionally fought with people, how could he do such a thing of bullying others by relying on his power?

But immediately after, Zhou Chenggong from the first class leaned over and began to cry and complain.

"Everything Xia Yue said is true. I just accidentally called out his nickname, and he dragged me out in front of the whole class. After my family came, they almost knelt down to him..."

"That's right, Lu Jingyao," the study committee member Jin Shengli also squeezed over, filled with righteous indignation: "Ever since you left, Li Ye has changed into a different person.

He is cold and heartless toward his classmates. Everyone just wanted to ask him for advice on a few test questions... It made the class a mess..."

"That's right, that's right. Lu Jingyao, you should manage Li Ye! He relies on his status as a writer and looks down on everyone..."

"Fart of a writer, clearly he is..."

".........."

Several classmates came over to complain to Lu Jingyao one after another, letting her see the scene of "public indignation" and also feel a strange sense of responsibility.

She didn't want to see Li Ye, but now, looking at the meaning of the people around her, everyone had "suffered from Li Ye for a long time" and was just waiting for her to uphold justice!

"Alright, Xia Yue, take me there. I'll talk to Li Ye." Lu Jingyao finally made a decision.

But Xia Yue shook her head vigorously.

She was bad, but not stupid.

After several confrontations, she had deeply realized that in the face of absolute strength, her little face as a class monitor didn't work at all. A grandfather who was a bureau director could make Li Ye invincible.

But Xia Yue was unwilling to give up. For more than a month, the class seemed calm, but Xia Yue's heart of revenge had never been extinguished.

Once a woman goes crazy, she is completely unreasonable. Xia Yue was like a wasp with a stinger, waiting for the best opportunity to stick out her butt and shoot her stinger.

Now that Lu Jingyao had suddenly returned, it was truly an excellent opportunity delivered to her door.

Xia Yue knew Lu Jingyao extremely well. She was Li Ye's natural enemy.

And Lu Jingyao was extremely self-reliant and conceited in her heart. Even if she had a conflict with Li Ye, she would definitely bear all the consequences herself and would never involve Xia Yue.

Watching Wen Leyu's relationship with Lu Jingyao was special, and she had played an important role in Li Ye's novel.

If Lu Jingyao was reckless enough, she might be able to confirm Li Ye's reputation for "plagiarism," making him fall into an abyss from which he could never recover, and even implicate his grandfather.

"Xia Yue, don't be afraid. You take me there, and I will take responsibility for everything." Lu Jingyao really made a guarantee.

But Xia Yue still wouldn't go. Lu Jingyao looked at Jin Shengli and Zhou Chenggong again.

As a result, both of them retreated timidly, making Lu Jingyao feel incredible.

However, someone finally stood up.

"I'll take you there. I know where Li Ye is."

Lu Jingyao took a look and found it was He Weiguo.

He Weiguo had pursued her when she was in the first year of high school, so Lu Jingyao had a bad impression of him, but now that no one dared to take Lu Jingyao there, she had no choice but to agree.

Li Ye's off-campus self-study room was in the backyard of the Second Grain Store. This wasn't a secret, and the two arrived quickly.

But after arriving, He Weiguo said in surprise: "It wasn't like this before!"

At this time, the backyard wall of the Second Grain Store had just been renovated, and a guard room had actually been built at the entrance.

A man with a scarred face in his forties or fifties in the guard room asked Lu Jingyao and He Weiguo who were walking over with a fierce tone: "Who are you looking for?"

Lu Jingyao said calmly: "I'm looking for Watching Wen Leyu."

The scarred man said: "There is no Watching Wen Leyu here. Hurry up and leave!"

"........."

Lu Jingyao was finally angry.

What kind of place was this? A small grain and oil store actually had a guard?

Was this a prison?

Lu Jingyao had come to find Li Ye, and she was originally a bit uneasy, but now, she felt she had sufficient confidence.

"I'm looking for Li Ye!"

The scarred man threw out a registration book.

"Li Ye is not here. Write your name, work unit, home address, and contact information on this. After Li Ye comes back, we will notify him."

Lu Jingyao suppressed her anger and said indignantly: "My name is Lu Jingyao. I know Li Ye is inside. Notify him right now."

".........."

When the scarred man notified Li Ye, he and Hu Man and the others were preparing to eat.

Li Ye's expression was strange: "Lu Jingyao, what is she doing here?"

The scarred man said: "I don't know, but I feel like... she came with bad intentions."

"Heh~"

Li Ye smiled and shook his head: "Gu, you've listened to too many storytelling sessions. Where would there be any bad intentions?"

The scarred man shook his head: "Li Ye, don't believe it. That woman came eating firecrackers. Let me drive her away!"

"No need, let her in!"

Li Ye refused the scarred man's kindness without caring.

A few days ago, after Li Dayong told Li Zhongfa about the final exam situation, Director Li took action overnight, designated the Second Grain Store as a key protection unit, built a guard room, and sent Gu Jinqiang over.

Gu Jinqiang was a retired firefighter who had been injured while fighting a fire and had a strong sense of organization and discipline. As long as he didn't let people in, no one could get in.

But now Li Ye didn't care, and he had no other way.

Lu Jingyao finally entered the small backyard of the Second Grain Store, but He Weiguo was blocked outside.

A big yellow dog barked wildly at Lu Jingyao, giving her a gloomy feeling of "Number 72."

But when Lu Jingyao lifted the curtain and entered the small warehouse, the feeling took a 180-degree turn.

Inside the warm room, there was the fragrance of rice, as well as the vegetable fragrance that Lu Jingyao couldn't name.

Jiang Xiao stood near the stove, holding a spatula tightly, staring fixedly at Lu Jingyao who had just entered the door, as if she were ready to swing it at her at any time.

And Hu Man, Han Xia, Fu Yingjie, and others who had been "abducted" by Li Ye, all scanned her with their eyes. The scrutiny and vigilance made it seem as if she, Lu Jingyao, was the "criminal."

A figure 1.8 meters tall with a straight waist stood in front of Lu Jingyao.

"Long time no see~~"

The familiar voice fell into Lu Jingyao's ears, but it felt so unfamiliar.

Because Li Ye's tone was cold and his voice was indifferent, which couldn't overlap with the voice in Lu Jingyao's memory.

If it weren't for the fact that this face was still so good-looking... Lu Jingyao might have felt that she had recognized the wrong person.

【No, he seems... even better looking.】

Lu Jingyao felt a trance in her heart. The full confidence that had been boiling and rolling just a moment ago suddenly wasn't so sufficient.

And the next moment, the words Li Ye said made her completely sober up.

"What do you want with me?"

【What do you mean what do I want with you? Wasn't it you who always pestered me for no reason in the past?】

In the past, when Li Ye saw Lu Jingyao, he was always full of joy. How could he question her "what do you want with me"?

But now, the cold words drifted over, as if to reject people thousands of miles away.

"I do have something to find you for,"

Lu Jingyao tried hard to adjust her emotions, silently reciting in her heart, "I am a college student, I am a college student."

"I heard people say that you used your family's wealthy conditions to attract some classmates to study outside the school, causing their grades to decline..."

"What does this have to do with you?"

"........."

Lu Jingyao's words had just started, but were pressed back by a single sentence.

And the person who spoke wasn't Li Ye, but Hu Man.

Lu Jingyao looked at Hu Man in shock, not understanding why she had become so "depraved."

She knew Hu Man's grades. She failed to get into college last year because of a poor performance, and this time her final exam grades had regressed even more. Now she was actually saying "What does this have to do with you?"

So she said sternly: "Hu Man, although Chinese cabbage stewed with meat is delicious, compared to your grades, it is insignificant."

"Sigh, sigh, sigh, Lu Jingyao, don't talk nonsense!"

Li Dayong pulled Hu Man, who was about to get angry, to the side and said with a grin: "We actually don't eat much Chinese cabbage stewed with meat because it doesn't taste very good. We usually eat braised soybeans with pork knuckles, pickled fish, twice-cooked pork..."

".........."

Lu Jingyao was stunned. She was familiar with these classmates in front of her. Look at what they had become now?

Jiang Xiao, holding the spatula, lifted the lid and said: "We are eating beef stewed with radishes today. Li Ye said that this dish is nutritious and tastes good, and it's best with rice... Do you want a bowl?"

Lu Jingyao: "........."

Jiang Xiao "slapped" the lid back on and said coldly: "Sorry, I forgot there were no extra bowls."

【He is still like this, still likes to use material things to corrupt people's hearts.】

Lu Jingyao's body swayed twice, and the past she didn't want to mention flashed back in her memory.

At that time, Lu Jingyao felt Li Ye was too honest, but Li Ye's family's material conditions were too good.

He would honestly use various scarce materials to buy over her family, making them recognize this good son-in-law, without caring about Lu Jingyao's feelings at all.

【Fortunately, I have broken free from fate and mastered my own fate.】

Lu Jingyao felt she was strong again. She said to Li Ye with a blank face: "Li Ye, I can't manage your affairs, and I don't want to manage them anymore, but Watching Wen Leyu, I'm taking her away."

"........."

After Lu Jingyao's words fell, not only Li Ye, but also Hu Man, Li Dayong, and others felt it was incredible.

【Who the hell are you?】

Li Ye's expression was even colder, and he asked Lu Jingyao in a deep voice: "What is the reason that makes you feel you have the qualifications to say such things?"

Lu Jingyao raised her chin and said seriously: "I met Teacher Ke in the capital. Teacher Ke entrusted me to take good care of Watching Wen Leyu. I can't let her follow you and not learn well."

"Sigh, who are you saying is not learning well?"

"That's right, make it clear, otherwise I'll tear your mouth today."

Hu Man and Han Xia immediately flared up. If it weren't for Li Dayong and the others blocking them, they would have really come up to deal with Lu Jingyao.

People in the eighties still valued the chastity of marriage. Regarding Lu Jingyao's behavior, some people would say it was self-improvement, but many people also felt she was shameless.

Hu Man was the kind of person behind.

"Alright, quiet."

Li Ye lightly stopped the irritable Hu Man and the others, looked at Lu Jingyao coldly, and asked: "Are you sure Teacher Ke entrusted you to take care of Watching Wen Leyu?"

Lu Jingyao nodded heavily and said: "I am very sure. In the capital, I personally sent Teacher Ke to the inn."

"That would be strange."

Li Ye smiled faintly, turned around, took a telegram paper from his schoolbag, and handed it to Lu Jingyao.

Lu Jingyao looked at Li Ye in surprise and looked down at the telegram.

【I have arrived in the capital, don't miss me, please take care of Xiao Yu, thank you!】

There were only a few words on the telegram paper, after all, it was calculated by the number of words.

But these few words made Lu Jingyao's head buzz with thoughts.

She saw very clearly that the recipient of this telegram was Li Ye.

Then, what Teacher Ke said in the capital, "I have entrusted someone else to take care of Xiao Yu,"

that "someone else," was actually Li Ye?

【No wonder I always felt Teacher Ke was a bit wrong at the time. So, Teacher Ke also disliked me?】

The small warehouse became completely quiet.

Hu Man and the others were originally furious, but seeing Lu Jingyao suddenly turn pale and her hands holding the telegram paper trembling, they were also suspicious, looking at each other, not knowing whether they should drive Lu Jingyao out.

Watching Wen Leyu walked out from behind and walked to Lu Jingyao's side.

"Go, come out with me, I want to talk to you!" ===== CHAPTER 61 =====
