Chapter 24: Chapter 024 Copying Howork_1
“Student Jiang Nanfei, how co you don’t recognize ? I’m Lu Qingtian!”
Nan Fei blinked her shiny eyes, a hint of confusion flickering through them. Her thick, fan-like eyelashes looked particularly beautiful. “Are you… Lu Zhishen?”
She finally rembered – her classmate from high school. Her mory was still fresh because he had such a ferocious reputation at school back then.
Embarrassed, Lu Qingtian waved his butcher’s knife in his hand, frightening Nan Fei into taking a step back. Could it be that he was upset because she had ntioned his nickna?
Was he going to commit violence right here on the street?
However, as soon as she stepped back, she bumped unknowingly into a broad embrace. The man’s scorching body heat seeped through the thin clothes, causing her to want to dodge, but she ended up being held tighter.
...
“Are you alright?” Huo Beijiang’s voice was deep; he easily picked her up with one arm and moved her to a safe distance.
His eyes, black as ink, scrutinized Lu Qingtian.
Lu Qingtian’s knife dropped onto the chopping board with a clatter, and his eyes stared straight behind Jiang Nanfei.
Jiang Nanfei stepped back in embarrassnt to put so distance between her and Huo Beijiang. For her, being with Huo Beijiang was the real danger. “Why are you here?”
Could he have followed her out all the way?
“To take you ho.” Huo Beijiang stood tall among the crowd in the farrs’ market, his presence standing out like a sore thumb. The air around him seed to thin as he stared straight at Jiang Nanfei.
“I don’t need you to…” Not even finishing the word “send”, she was already cut off.
“That’s not for you to decide.” Huo Beijiang’s smile played at the corner of his mouth. He started to speak but decided that this was not the place to talk.
Seeing that she indeed seed a little scared of him, he had to say: “You go shopping first. I will wait for you outside.” After finishing speaking, he signaled to the at-selling Uncle Lu.
“All right!” Big and burly Uncle Lu exclaid with a smile.
Jiang Nanfei watched Huo Beijiang’s retreating figure and quietly sighed with relief: “Student Qing Tian, please weigh three kilograms of at.”
Jiang Nanfei pointed to the big bone on the stall. “I’ll take this bone as well.”
“All right!” Lu Qingtian’s eyes were smiling as he looked at her – an even creepier gaze than Huo Beijiang’s, “I’ll give you the bone for free! No charge.”
With that, he skillfully cut the at and chopped the bone, his knife flying. Uncle Lu by his side nodded with satisfaction from ti to ti.
“No, that’s not right! You must charge .” She could not feel good about taking other people’s things for no reason. Besides, although Lu Qingtian was her classmate, they had never interacted or even spoken to each other.
In her previous life, she was silly, spending all her ti playing with Huo Jinlan, which made her miss the chance to make friends with others.
“Just lend your howork to copy.”
“…” Nan Fei was stunned. Did she hear that wrong? Wasn’t it supposed to be borrowing notes to copy? She wondered if it was okay to blatantly ask to copy howork in front of one’s own father.
“Hahaha… Student Jiang Nanfei, we will be relying on you to help our Qing Tian from now on. Thank you.”
Uncle Lu’s laughter mirrored Lu Qingtian’s – both of them squinted, which made them look a bit silly.
“… uh… there’s… no need for thanks… uh…” Nan Fei was truly perplexed. She wanted to ask Uncle Lu if he understands what it ant by copying howork?
