After Marrying the Cold and Elegant Beauty, I Fell in Love (GL) - Chapter 10
It was over. It was completely over.
Han Shuangshuang cried for her father and mother in her heart.
Shen Yuru had still misunderstood.
It was all that damned system’s fault.
She was not a doctor, so how could she possibly cure Shen Yuru’s heart disease?
This was not even remotely within her professional field.
[System: Warm reminder to Host. Shen Yuru’s heart healing progress has increased to 10%. Please keep up the good work!]
Seeing the faint anger on Shen Yuru’s face, Han Shuangshuang rubbed her hands together like a doggo who had done something wrong.
But after hearing the system notification, Han Shuangshuang’s puppy eyes instantly lit up.
“Doesn’t Sister Shen feel that your body has warmed up quite a bit now? That’s all thanks to my hard work last night. Sister Shen’s constitution is too poor. It’s clearly the middle of summer, yet there wasn’t even a bit of warmth on your body. Fortunately, I’m young and full of vigor, so I absorbed all that cold air into my own body. But not only does Sister Shen not thank me, you even turn around and accuse me, blame me, and say I have bad intentions. Then I’m truly suffering a great injustice.”
Han Shuangshuang pouted and accused her with vivid emotion.
Shen Yuru’s heart healing progress had already increased.
The system had said that the healing progress would only increase if ripples rose in Shen Yuru’s heart. That meant Shen Yuru was actually grateful to her in her heart. She was just being stubborn.
The more Han Shuangshuang spoke, the more energized she became. She clapped her hands together and gave Shen Yuru a look that said she understood everything.
“What is this kind of behavior called? The farmer and the snake? Lü Dongbin and the dog…”
Shen Yuru’s cool voice sounded, carrying a faint note of questioning. “Is Student Han saying I’m a snake that bites people and a dog that doesn’t remember kindness?”
“Of course not. How could I possibly think that? Sister Shen is the kind of person who repays kindness the most. Otherwise, why would you help me review my lessons? I was only giving Sister Shen a few examples.”
As Han Shuangshuang spoke, she heard her stomach let out a loud rumble. “I haven’t eaten much since noon yesterday. Never mind Sister Shen being weak—even I’m about to starve to death. Let’s hurry out and go to the cafeteria to eat something.”
Since Shen Yuru’s heart healing progress had increased, it meant her work for the day was already complete.
A worker had to have self-awareness. Once she had finished her corporate-slave work, she should no longer face the oppression of her superior.
Right now, Han Shuangshuang only wanted to eat her fill, drink enough, slip back to the dorm, lie in bed, and scroll through her phone.
She opened her phone, intending to ask Yan Huan for help.
Shen Yuru rubbed the hem of her clothing with her index finger.
It was as though part of the warmth Han Shuangshuang had brought her body still remained.
At this moment, movement suddenly came from the doorway.
“Senior, Shen Yuru is inside. I saw it with my own eyes last night. Han Shuangshuang was with Shen Yuru too. The two of them were behaving intimately. Who knows what they were doing?
“Isn’t it a bit bad for us to go in now? What if the two of them still haven’t woken up, or we walk in on them doing something? Wouldn’t that be awkward?”
Wu Huimin fanned the flames from the side.
Long Aodi held the key in his hand and prepared to open the door.
Because Han Shuangshuang and Shen Yuru were sitting in the very back row of the classroom, they were in a blind spot. When the two of them looked in from the front and back doors, they did not see anyone.
Long Aodi had obtained the key to the teaching building from the building manager. Because he was the student council president, the building manager trusted him very much.
So he had simply made up an excuse, and the building manager had handed him the key.
Long Aodi knew what kind of person Han Shuangshuang was. She indulged in pleasure, wasted her days, and was not a good person at all. Shen Yuru must have been coerced. If he rushed in now and rescued Shen Yuru, Shen Yuru would definitely be grateful to him.
Hearing the movement by the door, Shen Yuru also frowned.
She did not like getting entangled with others.
So she grabbed Han Shuangshuang’s wrist and pulled her up. The two of them hid behind the curtain at the last window.
The classroom curtains were all very long, reaching the floor. And in order to block the sunlight, their color was quite dark, just enough to hide both of them completely.
Han Shuangshuang widened her innocent puppy eyes in a daze as she watched Shen Yuru suddenly pounce toward her, press her against the wall, and then stick tightly against her with not even the slightest distance between them.
Shen Yuru leaned against Han Shuangshuang’s body, but turned her head slightly, listening carefully to the voices of Long Aodi and Wu Huimin.
Shen Yuru did not know why Long Aodi kept coming near her again and again.
They were in the same year, but they were not in the same major.
Han Shuangshuang sucked in a cold breath, because she felt Shen Yuru stepping on her foot.
Shen Yuru gripped Han Shuangshuang’s wrists with both hands, afraid Han Shuangshuang would not cooperate and run out.
She had always been cautious in her actions. Before she figured out what Han Shuangshuang’s intentions were, she would not completely trust Han Shuangshuang.
Han Shuangshuang really wanted to quietly remind Shen Yuru that her foot was being stepped on.
But when she saw Shen Yuru’s brows slightly furrowed and those phoenix eyes staring coldly and unblinkingly outside the curtain, she stopped.
Shen Yuru’s lashes were so long, and her skin was so nice. Forget that she was fair; her skin was as tender as a peeled egg, without even the slightest flaw.
And she had the typical small face framed by a full head of hair. Their heights were clearly about the same, yet Shen Yuru’s face was a whole circle smaller than hers.
So perfect it made one envious.
“That can’t be. I saw the two of them here with my own eyes last night,” Wu Huimin said quietly.
“Could they have climbed out the window?” Long Aodi looked at the windows on the side wall. If they stood on the desks and climbed out, it was possible.
“Then I don’t know. Senior, let’s hurry and go eat. Don’t keep looking for them.”
Shen Yuru was wearing heeled leather shoes, and being stepped on by them truly hurt. Han Shuangshuang’s toes were about to go numb.
Han Shuangshuang felt that her patience had reached its limit. She really wanted to quietly remind Shen Yuru.
Unexpectedly, the thoughts in her heart actually slipped out.
“Shen…”
Han Shuangshuang herself was startled by the murmured sound she made.
She had not expected that in the very next second, Shen Yuru would directly raise her head and block her mouth.
That was right. Block.
And she blocked it with her mouth.
Without any emotion.
Han Shuangshuang’s puppy eyes instantly widened like copper bells.
Shen Yuru’s lips were just like her as a person, clean and cool, without even the slightest trace of warmth.
But they were very soft and tender, like pudding with two grams of gelatin added.
Han Shuangshuang felt as though even her breathing was about to stop.
Because Shen Yuru’s cool, clean scent kept rushing into her nose, like gurgling water atop a high mountain, suddenly flowing straight into her heart.
At this moment, Han Shuangshuang’s brain belatedly reacted.
If she wanted to lower Shen Yuru’s blackening value, then she had to step forward whenever Shen Yuru was being bullied and support Shen Yuru.
Or if something similar to what had happened to Shen Yuru happened to Han Shuangshuang, and she handled it well while Shen Yuru saw it, that would also lower Shen Yuru’s blackening value.
In that case, she could not stop Shen Yuru and Long Aodi from meeting.
Long Aodi walked around the classroom twice, but still did not find anyone. He was somewhat discouraged.
Shen Yuru was in poor health, and her personality was also very soft. She did not have much of a temper. She was in the same year as him, and her studies were excellent.
Her intelligence was worthy of him, and she could also be controlled by him very well.
Shen Yuru was also the daughter of a wealthy family. As long as he successfully got together with Shen Yuru, he could borrow the resources and background of the Shen family, rise step by step, and realize the dream he had pursued for years: crossing social classes.
Even so, Long Aodi still felt that with conditions like these, Shen Yuru was only barely worthy of him.
As for those other fangirls with poor grades and no brains, who only knew how to play games and do skincare all day, they had no right to be with him at all. They were simply unworthy.
Long Aodi and Wu Huimin left.
Only then did Shen Yuru release her hold on Han Shuangshuang.
Han Shuangshuang had held her breath for a long while. Only now could she finally let out a long breath.
She knew now. The dog thing who had locked her and Shen Yuru inside the classroom was Wu Huimin.
For a simp to go this far, Han Shuangshuang really admired her.
Wu Huimin was the kind of petty person extremely common in life. On the surface, she seemed to have no temper and did not speak much, but she would always secretly stab you in the back.
If you noticed and questioned her, she would pretend to be wronged and pitiful, insisting she had done nothing. If you did not notice, she would become increasingly bold.
Han Shuangshuang subconsciously touched her own mouth.
Shen Yuru turned her eyes away, ignoring Han Shuangshuang’s actions.
[System: Congratulations, Host. Shen Yuru’s heart healing progress has increased by 5%. Shen Yuru’s current heart healing progress is 15%.]
There was actually such a good thing?
The moment Han Shuangshuang heard the system notification, she immediately tossed everything else to the back of her mind.
The two of them each had their own thoughts, and they separated without even saying goodbye.
……
After Han Shuangshuang finished breakfast, she was so full that she yawned when she returned to the dorm.
She had slept sitting up last night, so now there was not a single part of her body that did not hurt. Her waist was sore, and her back ached.
Yan Huan, however, sat opposite her and wiggled her brows. “Not bad. Our Han Shuangshuang actually studied so hard that she studied all night.”
No matter how Han Shuangshuang listened, those words sounded wrong.
“Don’t think nonsense. I really was studying. I don’t want to repeat the year.”
As Han Shuangshuang spoke, she rolled her stiff shoulders.
“Look at how weak you look. Those dark circles are about to fall all the way to your chin. You usually fall asleep within three minutes of opening a book. What could possibly keep you energetic for an entire night?”
Yan Huan clicked her tongue twice. “Come on. Big Sis will take you to a bar to let loose. Don’t let studying turn your brain stupid.”
Hearing Yan Huan say that, Han Shuangshuang’s eyes lit up.
In her original world, because she had been poor, she had never been to a bar before.
She had always wanted to know what 857 was really like.
Of course, if Han Shuangshuang had known she would run into the original owner’s ex-girlfriend here, even if someone beat her to death, she would not have come.
When Yan Huan saw the battlefield of a romance-drama showdown unfold, she immediately slipped away.
Han Shuangshuang had only just arrived at the bar and had not even warmed the seat beneath her butt when a hot-bodied beauty dressed in cool, revealing clothes walked straight up to her with a glass of strong liquor. Her eyes looked at Han Shuangshuang with resentment.
In that instant, Han Shuangshuang even suspected that she really had done something to wrong this woman.
She would not shoulder the original owner’s blame.
[System: Host, don’t be so cowardly. Match the character setting a little.]
Not far away, Shen Yuru sat in the darkest corner, those phoenix eyes silently watching Han Shuangshuang.
