I Like Your Pheromones - Chap 64
His tone was flat, and there was a coolness in his words.
He didn’t look particularly angry, but if his cold and indifferent tone was to be compared with the paralyzed Huo Heng again, the effect of his words on the current scene was really quite shocking.
The boys from the No. 3 High School unconsciously paused for a while, suddenly realizing that this was not just a one-on-one duel.
They were all gathered here to fight.
Although the original targets were Hei Pi and the others, and Duan Jiayan rushed out for no reason at this moment, but Duan Jiayan was still a student of the No. 1 high school, and then he took Huo Heng down like this. According to this calculation, he was the enemy.
The boys who were good bros with Huo Heng couldn’t wait after the first time, and after a random person yelled out, they all rushed out in Duan Jiayan’s direction.
After Duan Jiayan had beat Huo Heng to a pulp just now, the anger that had been bubbling was almost fully vented. He directly ducked away, not planning to fight with them alone.
But the idea on the other side was different from his own. Taking advantage of the chaos, Huo Heng got up from the ground, and a trace of fury glimmered in his eyes. Hei Pi noticed a flash of metal from Huo Heng’s body, but he didn’t have time to rush over, so he could only warn loudly: “Knife! He has a knife!”
But it was still too late.
The back of Duan Jiayan’s left hand was sharply slashed by the tip of the knife, and large drops of blood flowed down his fair skin.
Duan Jiayan hadn’t expected that Huo Heng would still have the strength to stand up.
Duan Jiayan was slightly startled when he saw Huo Heng who was still pouncing in his direction like a mad dog. Not only him, but everyone around him couldn’t help but fail to react.
The atmosphere surrounding the fight before and after real blood was drawn was as different as heaven and earth. Seeing blood and merely expecting to see it are completely different. Usually high school students fight with fists, and no one will deliberately pull out a knife. With a knife, it is easy to cause a major accident, and if it was serious, it may even involve loss of human life.
Besides, the size of the wound on Duan Jiayan’s hand was scary at first glance.
Huo Heng held the knife and sneered: “Are you still going to pretend? Can’t talk? Aren’t you dizzy from seeing blood?”
Duan Jiayan lifted his gaze, and punched him in the face with his bleeding hand.
Huo Heng’s nose was burning furiously, and his vision went blurry. When he lowered his head, he saw blood trickling on the ground.
He was stunned for a moment, before realizing it was his own nose bleeding.
Huo Heng covered his nose in pain. Seeing this, Duan Jiayan swung his injured left hand, seemingly deciding between laughing or not: “Didn’t you say I should be dizzy?”
Despite the fresh blood stains on the ground, he started a new wave of ridicule.
His behavior completely provoked the anger of Huo Heng. Seeing that the No.3 high school’s students were going to pounce on Duan Jiayan, Hei Pi rushed out, shouting: “Fen Mao, move! Are you watching a play out here?”
Seeing Hei Pi charging, the brothers behind him also joined the battle.
“Dare to attack our school bully, do you think we agree?”
“You still bring a knife to a group fight, do you not the rules of the of a conflict?” He kicked the knife that Huo Heng had dropped, and rushed into the crowd of boys fighting: “Huo Heng! How dare you make a fool of yourself! I’ll kill you!!
” What’s the matter with you, Guo Zirui! Who are you helping?”
Guo Zirui roared back confidently: “I’ll help my brother, of course! To be honest, don’t you think Huo Heng is a specially dumb high schooler?”
“Do you support him or not? Me? I don’t know…”
No. 3 High School was originally the leader of the fight, but at this moment there was a direct internal conflict:
“Fuck, I actually don’t want to fight.”
“I’m just here to watch a lively battle and record a video, who knew it’s going to be an actual fight.”
“Your brother is too fierce. He can fight two or three together, even if there is an injury.”
“Let’s just go”
” … Brothers, can you stop fighting?”
Hei Pi led a group of younger brothers to charge into the battle, and their morale was extremely high: Fighting!
No, what.
Duan Jiayan: “…”
Duan Jiayan suddenly didn’t particularly want to take part in this situation.
It turned out that during the small period of his self-reflection, these people had already turned the group fight into a group drama. Duan Jiayan watched them scuffle for a while, swimming in troubled waters, and then slowly retreated from the center of the battlefield.
Among this group of fighters, Huo Heng and his right-hand brothers were the most embarrassed. After the fight, Guo Zirui and Hei Pi reached a consensus to join forces, causing Huo Heng and others to endure attacks from both the enemy and the enemy’s enemy.
After all, they are all students, and there is no deep seated hatred between them. When fighting, both sides have a weak sense of motivation.
Duan Jiayan decided to dissuade them properly this time: “Don’t beat your brothers, the evening self-study is about to start. You should go to class, don’t use the Internet, and don’t waste your youth in meaningless fights.”
Duan Jiayan continued speaking, He also gave a name to the battle: “It’s really unnecessary to fight again, let’s put an end to this nonsense. Except for Huo Heng, who is a dumb idiot, everyone is a good brother.”
Huo Heng scolded: “Duan Jiayan! Your uncle–“
Hei Pi and Guo Zirui punched him together.
Duan Jiayan’s remarks sounded like a child’s words at first, but it actually made sense. It really didn’t make any sense to fight again.
Slowly, both sides really stopped.
Except for Duan Jiayan and Huo Heng, who were in the limelight, everyone else only suffered some physical injuries. No matter how unwilling he is, Huo Heng could only be held up by a few friends of his own and he left the backstreet, since there were so many people on the other side.
When Huo Heng and the others left, Duan Jiayan looked down at his arm.
Because the wound area is not small, and he himself punched Huo Heng at that time, the blood has not completely stopped flowing.
“Brother Duan, are you going to deal with it? At least bandage it.” Hei Pi looked at the cut on the back of Duan Jiayan’s hand, and couldn’t help but say, “Do you need another shot of tetanus?
Since he was quite familiar with this type of situation, he said: “I know there is a clinic nearby. The boss is very skilled. Let’s deal with it?”
Duan Jiayan nodded.
The clinic mentioned by Hei pi was also in the backstreet, and it takes only a few steps to get there.
The boss of the clinic was a young man who was familiar with Hei Pi. When he saw him, the boss greeted him casually: “Yo, where is the injury?”
“It’s not me.”
The boss’s gaze glanced at Duan Jiayan and his eyes landed on the back of his hand.
“Little handsome guy, this injury is not shallow, you need to sew seven or eight stitches.” The boss took a general look at Duan Jiayan’s wound: “Sit there, I’ll disinfect you, do you need anesthesia?”
Duan Jiayan responded with a nod.
When the cut was being stitched, Guo Zirui saw that the curved needle pierce the back of Duan Jiayan’s hand, and the pointed tip was shuttled through the skin, he couldn’t help but shiver and cover his eyes with a hiss.
Hei Pi wondered: “What are you doing?”
Cherry Blossom: “I have Hemophobia! I can’t see this scene!”
HeimPi: “…”
Guo Zirui: “Brother Duan! You are suffering!”
Because of the anesthesia , Duan Jiayan doesn’t feel particularly pained. He was about to laugh at Guo Zirui when he suddenly remembered something.
He completely forgot about the meal.
There was also the milk tea, which seems to have been left in the place where he just fought.
The milk tea was not the point, the point was Lu Xingci…
Duan Jiayan moved to touch the phone without even thinking about it. The boss, who was lazy, raised his eyebrows and stopped him: “Don’t move!”
Duan Jiayan stopped.
When the boss finished sewing, he hurriedly went to get his mobile phone. Unsurprisingly, he saw several missed calls on it.
Duan Jiayan quickly swiped on the screen, and as expected there were several calls from Lu Xingci. Duan Jiayan fell silent when he saw his left hand that he had just dealt with.
He was silent when Zhou Xingchen’s WeChat messages popped up one by one:
[Duan Duan, where are you? ]
[Are you still eating? Brother Lu is looking for you. ]
[Where’s my porridge? ]
Duan Jiayan said in his heart, so you also know that you are drinking porridge. Just after the thought flashed in his mind, the screen of his mobile phone suddenly jumped.
Seeing the caller ID, a sudden thought flashed in Duan Jiayan’s mind.
Intimidating.
Seeing him staring at the phone in a daze, Hei Pi reminded him:
“Duan Jiayan, are you stupid? Answer the phone?”
Guo Zirui took a look at the screen: “Whose phone is it?”Your father?!”
Duan Jiayan came back to his senses, hesitated for a while, and was about to pick up the call when a cool and indifferent voice came from the door of the small clinic.
“Duan Jiayan.” The speaker’s tone was indescribable, and his voice was slow: “You’re good at it.”
The boy stood outside the door, tall and slender. His dark eyes scanned the room, and finally landed on Duan Jiayan’s injured left hand. Several layers of white bandages were wrapped around it. This kind of large-scale bandaging, it made one want to know what the wound under it probably looked like.
Noticing what Lu Xingci was looking at, Duan Jiayan went a little stiff. Guo Zirui was immediately upset by the cooldness in Lu Xingci’s voice:
“Who is this man? Sounds a little familiar. Who is he coming to provoke?”
Hei Pi hurriedly kicked him: “Shut up.”
Guo Zirui continued tirelessly: “Who is this person?”
Hei Pi couldn’t help it, and whispered: “Your brother Duan’s person.”
Guo Zirui covered his mouth in horror, speaking from between his five fingers: “Fuck, sister-in-law?”
Hei Pi: “????”
Duan Jiayan didn’t expect him to come to him directly. After reacting, he stood up and trotted to the door.
Seeing him coming, Lu Xing sighed, and lightly clasped Duan Jiayan’s wrist in his hand.
He took a closer look and determined that Duan Jiayan only had the injury on his left hand, so he asked, “Does it hurt a lot?”
Duan Jiayan originally wanted to say that it didn’t hurt, since he took the anesthetic, the effect of the drug had not passed, and the pain in his hand was not a big deal.
But seeing that Lu Xingci’s face was not looking very good, Duan Jiayan had an idea, and the desire to survive made him nod: “It hurts.”
Lu Xingci smelled the medicine on his hand, and asked in a low voice: “How many stiches?”
Duan Jiayan felt a little guilty: “Seven.”
“…” Lu Xingci frowned.
Guo Zirui saw the subtle atmosphere between them and started:
“Well, ask, my sister-in-law—”
Hei Pi couldn’t help it: “Who is your sister-in-law? You call him Dad.”
Guo Zirui: “My dad? Bah. This, this handsome guy, how long have you been with my brother Duan? ”
Hei Piglanced at him: “Have you never surfed the Internet?”
Guo Zirui: “Huh?”
Hei Pi: “Ning City ABO forum, post number 10024, click to harvest your brother Duan’s love story.”
Hei Pi said with emotion: “I still remember the post number…?”
The underlying atmosphere did not change, Duan Jiayan’s hand was suddenly grabbed by Lu Xingci, and his heart rate went up.
He saw that Lu Xingci was silent, and he took the initiative to say: “I went to buy milk tea just now, and came back to meet Hei Pi and my junior high school classmates in the back street. They brought a group of brothers together-“
Seeing Lu Xingci’s brows rise slightly, Duan Jiayan swallowed the word “fight” back just in time.
Duan Jiayan turned his head suddenly, and was about to let the culprits Hei Pi and Guo Zirui roll over to explain.
Seeing that his expression was somewhat wrong, Hei Pi immediately said: “Dad, we’ll go first.”
Guo Zirui also agreed readily: “Dad, we won’t disturb you. If you have something to say, say it later”
Duan Jiayan: “… …”
Duan Jiayan couldn’t wait to smash these two people to the ground.
It’s wasn’t appropriate to block the door of the clinic all the time. When Hei Pi and the others left, Lu Xingci pulled him and walked towards the school gate.
Seeing that Duan Jiayan was obediently being led out by him, it was like a child who’d made a mistake and was going to face his parents. Lu Xingci suddenly asked: “What are they doing with a crowd gathered?”
“…Do, what should be done, and then I also participated.”
Lu Xingci helped him add: “And then you hurt your hand.”
Duan Jiayan was about to say that he wasn’t hurt too badly, but Lu Xingci put his fingertips on the bandage on the back of his hand and slowly stroked: “How did you get hurt?”
Feeling the strength of the other’s light touch on the back of his hand, Duan Jiayan hesitated slightly: “…Knife.”
Lu Xingci’s fingers paused, and the emotion in his eyes darkened slightly.
Seeing him like this, Duan Jiayan hurriedly explained: “I really didn’t want to fight at first. At that time, I was in the back street, and there were people I knew on both sides. I went over and said a few words, but there was someone among the three…”
When he was about to mention Huo Heng , Duan Jiayan paused.
He didn’t want to repeat the words they exchanged in front of Lu Xingci, it was too ugly. Duan Jiayan said vaguely: “There was a man from the third school with a knife. I wasn’t expecting him to bring it, and he accidentally slashed me with it.”
“How is he? Was he also slashed?”
“No, we didn’t have a knife with us.” Duan Jiayan recalled: “But I beat him up, and he seemed to have a nosebleed?”
“But you were scratched, and he wasn’t.” Lu Xingci thought of the incident at that time.
Imagining the sight, he pulled Duan Jiayan’s hand with a little force: “What did he say, that made you so angry?”
“He just… said something stupid.” Duan Jiayan wanted to change the topic: “I only talked to him for a bit before I injured my hand. Later, when they fought, I went out.”
After he finished speaking, he felt that his description was unclear, so for a while he subconsciously looked at Lu Xingci.
Lu Xingci didn’t ask any further questions, but he didn’t speak, just took his hand and walked all the way to class.
Most of the people in No. 1 High School knew him and Lu Xingci, and along the way, they received countless stares. Duan Jiayan was also a cheeky guy himself, and being dragged all the way like this, he couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable: “Brother Lu, we’re about to reach the school gate, are we still going to be holding hands?”
Lu Xingci glanced at him, but didn’t let go, and continued to walk to the teaching building of the third year’s. Duan Jiayan knew that he was in the wrong, and honestly let him lead.
When they approached the door of Class 10, a student from the school committee came out of the classroom with a thick stack of workbooks.
Duan Jiayan subconsciously wanted to reach out to help, but Lu Xingci pulled him back, and stepped forward to give him a hand.
“Thank you, monitor.” The student thanked him repeatedly, and his eyes couldn’t help but fall on Duan Jiayan’s left hand wrapped in gauze: “Hey, Duan Jiayan, what’s wrong with your hand?”
“Scratched it.”
“Is it serious? Be careful, fortunately it is not the right hand, otherwise you will not be able to write.”
Duan Jiayan responded with a nod.
With so many things going on, Duan Jiayan didn’t have time to eat dinner. After returning to the classroom, he took out the snacks from the drawer and ate slowly with his head down.
In the evening self-study, the classroom was quiet, Lu Xingci listened to his sparse movements when he was eating, and closed his eyes, suddenly feeling a little irritable when he thought that Duan Jiayan didn’t eat dinner, had to sit through seven stitches when he was hungry, and that he might also have shed a lot of blood.
He could hardly control the urge to gather the other party in his arms. Fighting with people all the time, he felt that Duan Jiayan was really too impulsive.
While he was still pondering, Chen Yue suddenly turned around and knocked on his desk, Lu Xingci raised his eyebrows to ask him what he was doing, and the latter shook his phone silently at him.
He glanced at his phone, and Chen Yue sent him a message: [Look at this. ]
Lu Xingci didn’t have the patience to read the title, so he directly clicked on it.
[This evening, when most of the high school seniors were burying their heads in dinner, a scuffle broke out in the backstreet of a middle school.
As a middle school student, I feel compelled to speak out about what I have witnessed. This melee originated from our No. 1 school bully and a No. 3 school bully, let’s call him Huo Zai. In the end, the solo became a group fight between No. 1 and No. 3, which is called the turning of tides, in history.
At first, it was just a simple spat. Before we could react, we saw the school tyrant, using the shadow flash skill dart in front of Huo Zai with the f key, another e skill to lock onto Huo Zai, and the last r key to open and apply the final technique. Then repeat.
Ningcheng’s No. 1 Bully, suddenly beating people doesn’t makes sense.
So, why did the school bully suddenly run wild?
Because Huo Zai said bad things about the school grass.
The school tyrant rushed into the battle with a blue face. Except for nice, kill, 66666, I can’t say anything else. ]
[“I can, I can say that my partner will die tonight.”,]
[Wuwuwu mother is crying again for the love between cubs. ]
[Under normal circumstances, A fights for O, but in their family O fights for A.]
[I don’t know who to envy for a while. By the way, who is Huo Zi? ]
…
…
When Lu Xingci saw this, he finally knew why Duan Jiayan was vague about the reason for the fight.
At the same time, his heart softened, but he was still angry that he acted too impulsively and didn’t protect himself first.
“You’re looking at this too?” Duan Jiayan didn’t know when he came to him: “This brother’s statement is a little exaggerated, my skills really haven’t shown that much, but Huo Heng really needs to level up, He may need a fighting buff.”
It was obvious that Duan Jiayan just wanted to talk to him.
Lu Xingci glanced at the snacks at his hand: “Are potato chips delicious?”
“It’s okay.” Duan Jiayan said honestly, “It’s a bit boring to eat too much.”
“Then don’t eat it,” he turned off the phone and faced Duan Jiayan: “I’ll take you to eat after school.”
Duan Jiayan was about to continue unpacking potato chips, but when he heard that, he shoved the entire thing into the drawer, his eyes lit up and he nodded hurriedly.
A little farther from No. 1 High School, there is a Cantonese restaurant that has been open for many years.
In addition to students, there were many office workers who had just finished night work. The warm yellow light illuminated the interior transparently and brightly. The kitchen was surrounded by translucent glass, and you could see the hot air floating above the rows of steamers at a glance.
“Zhou Xingchen said he came here for a late night snack last time.” Lu Xingci pushed the menu in front of him: “What do you want to eat?”
Duan Jiayan ordered some fried rice noodle and a few more snacks.
When the dishes arrived, Duan Jiayan asked, “Do you want to eat? I ordered too much, and I can’t finish it all by myself.”
Lu Xingci was not very hungry, but he still ate some with him.
“I shouldn’t have fought.” Duan Jiayan saw that the atmosphere was good, and took the initiative to confess: “But Huo Heng mentioned you, he didn’t speak very nicely, I couldn’t help it.”
Lu Xingci looked at him for a few seconds, and suddenly sighed.
Duan Jiayan hurriedly said: “I will try my best to bear it in the future. If I can’t bear it, I will first see if the other party has a knife.”
“You are almost an adult. You can’t always be so impulsive. I may have been attracted to you in this way at first.” Lu Xingci looked at him, speaking very slowly, as if wanting him to understand his meaning as much as possible: “But it’s different now, I’m very scared.”
Duan Jiayan was stunned.
“I’m afraid you’ll get hurt, and I’m afraid I won’t be able to protect you. Your fight with Du Xuchen, Qiao Nan, and today’s conflict with the boy in the third high school did not end too badly. But I’m afraid, It will become a big deal in the future. It’s impossible for you to not get badly injured someday.”
“…” Duan Jiayan wanted to joke, ‘Don’t I have you as my biggest backer?’. But thinking of the emotion behind those words, he fell silent again.
“I’m also very afraid that even if I can somehow find you, it will be too late.” Remembering that no matter how much he called Duan Jiayan in the evening, he couldn’t get through, Lu Xingci’s voice stopped. After a while, he continued: “What you want to do next time, can you tell me first?”
Duan Jiayan was being watched intently by him, and before he knew it, his heart beat grew faster and faster.
Confused, Duan Jiayan nodded.
After a while,
“Then, I will report to you when I do something with others?” Duan Jiayan reacted and imagined the scene: “It seems to be a bit of a catch.”
Lu Xingci glanced at him: “Didn’t you say just now that there will be no fights in the future? “
Duan Jiayan touched his nose, embarrassed.
“What I’m saying is try not to fight.”
Duan Jiayan turned to look at him: “The main reason is, that Huo Heng dog pushes on my weaknesses. I really can’t bear it. If he pushes me, I won’t get that angry, but then he talked about you. At first I really didn’t beat him, he really thought I was easily bullied…”
“Speaking of which,” Lu Xingci looked at his eloquent appearance: “There is something that I haven’t said yet. You should know.”
Duan Jiayan thought he was going to say something serious, so he stopped talking and straightened his face.
Lu Xingci smiled: “Thank you for fighting for me.”
The boy frowned at him, his face clean and clear under the light.
His eyes were a clear black, with the ends curved upwards. When he wasn’t smiling, he looked very relaxed, but when he was laughing, he seemed gentle and slender.
At that moment, Duan Jiayan suddenly had an idea for no reason.
These were probably the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen in his life.
Duan Jiayan couldn’t help saying, “Lu Xingci.”
The person whose name he called responded and looked at him quietly.
He wanted to say a lot of things, but those chaotic thoughts flowed into his brain, and exploded like fireworks, till only the ashes remained.
Even in the end, he could only say a simple confession.
“I shouldn’t be as powerful as you in the future, but I will give you all the money I make. I will accompany you through your susceptible period.”
Duan Jiayan said, grabbing his hand:
“I will also protect you.”
