Capítulo 926: Chapter 926: Saving the Country by a Detour
Huo Zijin’s mind blanked for a mont, and she scratched her head, “Uh… this…”
She stretched out her hand, but hesitated about whether to take the love letter.
The boy observed her expression and felt a bit nervous too.
“Is this… a love letter?” Huo Zijin nervously confird again.
The boy imdiately nodded, giving her a puppy-like look, “Yeah…”
Huo Zijin asked, “Why didn’t you just give it directly to my brother?”
Now it was the boy’s turn to scratch his head, “But… I don’t know which classroom your brother is in, and I’m too shy to ask around. Plus, I’m a freshman. Among the freshn, Senior Zijin is more well-known…”
Huo Zijin internally ca up with dozens of retorts: You’re giving a love letter, yet you’re too shy to inquire!
Huo Zijin said, “Perhaps my brother is always in the research lab; he’s busy with academic discussions lately… But, for this love letter…”
She furrowed her brows, pulling her hand back, “I can’t deliver it for you.”
The boy looked disappointed, “Why not?”
Huo Zijin responded tactfully, “Uh… Is it possible that my brother might probably maybe perhaps like girls!”
After speaking, she looked at the boy with an embarrassed yet polite smile.
The boy suddenly understood, his eyes widened, and he quickly explained, “Oh! Classmate Zijin, you misunderstood. I’m straight; the love letter is not from to your brother.”
Huo Zijin laughed, “Really? I thought you wrote the love letter!”
The boy felt a bit awkward too, “I like girls; my orientation is quite normal, hehe.”
She extended her hand and took the letter, flipping it back and forth, but there was no signature.
“But… if it’s not yours, whose is it? Why didn’t the person who wrote the love letter deliver it themselves?”
The boy pondered for a mont, “Maybe he felt shy!”
Huo Zijin: “Ha… alright! I understand.”
She was about to put the love letter away, “Then I’ll pass it on for you! Can you tell who wrote it? If there’s a response from my brother, I can relay it directly to her.”
The boy said, “You’d better contact directly; he’s quite shy.”
Huo Zijin: “Oh! Is that so, alright then! Which departnt and class are you in?”
The boy replied, “I’m from the Water Engineering Departnt, Cheng Qiuye.”
“Oh, okay.”
Huo Zijin nodded.
…
Noon, cafeteria.
Huo Zijin made a call to Huo Linzhou, “Hey, brother, do you want to buy lunch? I have sothing to give you.”
Huo Linzhou: “I just finished; maybe it’ll take another fifteen minutes to tidy up a bit.”
Huo Zijin: “No worries, I’ll wait for you in the cafeteria.”
Twenty minutes later.
As soon as Huo Linzhou arrived at the cafeteria, Huo Zijin stood up and waved at him, “Brother! I’m here!”
Huo Linzhou walked towards her seat and realized this thoughtful sister had already gotten food for him.
He sat down across from her, “Yinyin is so thoughtful, she even knows what dishes I like.”
Huo Zijin retorted, “If I waited until you arrived to get the food, there would be nothing left.”
As she spoke, she rummaged through her small backpack.
Huo Linzhou gave her a confused look, “You said you had sothing to pass on to , what is it?”
Huo Zijin had already found that love letter and handed it to him, “Here!”
As soon as Huo Linzhou saw the pink love letter, his eye twitched violently, and his lips twitched slightly, “What’s this?”
Huo Zijin pronounced each word clearly, “Love—Letter…”
She didn’t lower her voice.
Huo Linzhou quickly reached out to cover her mouth, “Why don’t you just use a loudspeaker and announce it?”
Huo Zijin: “I didn’t bring one, should I go to the music room to get one?”
Huo Linzhou awkwardly replied, “No need, you really are… so considerate of your brother.”
Without saying a word, Huo Zijin directly handed the love letter to him, “Read it! Soone asked to give it to you.”
Huo Linzhou said, “Can’t I not read it?”
Huo Zijin: “Read it! I felt it; it’s a thick pile, which ans they’re sincere.”
After speaking, she rested her chin in her hands, “Brother, have you never been in a relationship?”
Huo Linzhou: “Why do you worry more than mom?”
Huo Zijin: “Because… I’m curious about the kind of sister-in-law you’ll find for !”
Three brothers, and not a single sister-in-law yet.
She was starting to doubt life!
Huo Linzhou chuckled, rolling his eyes at her pridefully, as he opened the letter and pulled out five pages of stationery.
“Oh wow…”
These days, who still takes love letters so seriously, they’re all about confessing directly now.
I wonder which innocent junior wrote this.
Huo Linzhou took a deep breath, took a bite of his food, and, just when he started to read, seed to choke on so rice after seeing a certain line, almost coughing it out.
Huo Zijin was startled, “What’s wrong?”
Huo Linzhou skimd through hastily, even forgetting to chew the rice in his mouth.
Huo Zijin anxiously watched his expression.
Huo Linzhou barely finished reading a page of the letter and looked at her, speaking with his mouth full, “Why do you accept every letter for ?”
Huo Zijin: “What do you an… isn’t this a love letter?”
If it’s not a love letter, what could it be?
A challenge letter for a duel?
Or… a threat?
Huo Linzhou closed his eyes, took a sip of soup, swallowed all the rice, and then clearly said, “Do you think your brother’s sexual orientation is abnormal?”
Huo Zijin opened her mouth, “Not at all… Wasn’t this love letter written to you by a girl?”
Huo Linzhou directly turned to the page with the signature, showing it to her—
[Water Engineering Departnt, Cheng Qiuye.]
Huo Zijin couldn’t hold back, nearly dropping her jaw in surprise, stunned.
“That’s impossible…”
Huo Zijin said, “This na, isn’t it him…”
She recalled the boy who gave her the letter at the classroom door; if she rembered correctly, his na was Cheng Qiuye.
Huo Linzhou asked, “Who gave you this love letter?”
Huo Zijin pointed to the na on the paper, “It’s him… it’s this na, I’m not mistaken.”
After speaking, she righteously said, “At first, I thought he was going to give you a love letter, so I declined. Then, he told he likes girls and has a normal orientation, that he was delivering it for soone else in the class.”
Oh my! Could it be, he tricked her, knowing that if he said he sent it, the letter might not reach Huo Linzhou, so he took a roundabout route to achieve his goal?
Huo Linzhou pursed his lips.
Huo Zijin suddenly laughed, “Brother, does the entire school have more guys who like you than girls?”
Huo Linzhou: “Don’t say things like that.”
