Qin Xiaoyu asked weakly over the phone.
She felt quite uncertain.
Even though she and Chen Kai were good friends, she was still a girl. Was it really appropriate to stay at a boy's house for a night? What if his parents misunderstood?
But the problem was!
She couldn't buy a train ticket. The last bus back to Fengtian today was already missed, and the school was locked down, so she couldn't return to the dorm.
Staying in a hotel was an option, but she was too scared.
She felt a bit afraid, what if she encountered a bad person? Her small physique wouldn't even be enough for them to chew on.
So, after thinking about it, she decided to call Chen Kai!
"Chen Kai, I promise, I'll just stay at your place for one night. Of course, if it's inconvenient, it's fine; then I'll just have to stay in a hotel! Or sleep on the streets. If you don't want to see your best friend catch a cold out there, then hurry to the station!"
Qin Xiaoyu pretended to be very wronged on the phone, whimpering as she spoke.
She was trying to play for sympathy.
Maybe Chen Kai would soften his heart?
After Chen Kai received Qin Xiaoyu's call, he looked out the car window and saw that it was raining heavily.
He felt quite nervous.
Chen Kai immediately replied, "Alright, Xiaoyu, find a place to shelter from the rain there and wait. I'll be right over!"
"Okay, big brother, I knew you wouldn't abandon your best friend, you wouldn't stand by and do nothing! Chen Kai, you're truly a good person!"
"Hurry, hurry!"
Qin Xiaoyu chuckled foolishly on the phone. Now it was fine; she wouldn't have to sleep on the streets.
But she had to report to her mom.
Otherwise, her family would worry, after all, today was graduation day, and all the students had gone home, only she hadn't.
Her parents would definitely worry!
Moreover, Qin Xiaoyu's mother was a traditional parent with a very strong personality!
Otherwise, Qin Xiaoyu wouldn't have developed such a personality.
How to put it...
Even if you bullied Qin Xiaoyu every day, she wouldn't know how to get angry, she was incredibly naive!
She was the type to be a punching bag, but she wasn't wronged, still smiling happily every day, the carefree type, and her personality was really fun.
But what should she say?
She couldn't possibly tell her mom that she was staying overnight at a boy's house, could she? If she did, after returning to Fengtian, her mom would surely string her up and beat her!
Just thinking about that terrifying scene, especially her mom's angry face, like Hu Tu Tu's mom, with her head practically on fire.
It was too terrifying.
Qin Xiaoyu organized her thoughts, then called her mom.
"Xiaoyu, have you gotten on the bus?"
"Mom! I'm going back to Fengtian tomorrow. Something unexpected happened today; I bought the wrong ticket, it was for yesterday! I'm staying at a friend's house tonight and will be back in Fengtian tomorrow. You and Dad don't worry at home! I'm just calling to let you know."
Qin Xiaoyu's mother on the other end of the phone.
Immediately replied.
She wasn't concerned about when she was coming home.
But about whose house she was staying at overnight.
A boy's or a girl's?
Of course, it's a boy's! Qin Xiaoyu almost blurted it out.
"A girl's!"
"What are you thinking, Mom?"
"You're so stupid!" Qin Xiaoyu's mother complained over the phone, "You can even buy the wrong ticket, I'm really speechless with you. How did I raise such a foolish daughter? You even bought yesterday's ticket. Why don't you eat yesterday's meal today? You could save some money."
"Wuwu, Mom, don't scold me anymore! I was wrong, I'll be back tomorrow."
"Alright, alright, do you have enough money? Are you bothering your friend by staying overnight?"
"It's fine! My friend and I are very close."
After Qin Xiaoyu finished reporting to her mom, she stood there waiting for Chen Kai.
When will Chen Kai arrive?
It was raining heavily, and it was so cold! Qin Xiaoyu shivered and even sneezed. Oh no, oh no, she was going to catch a cold now.
Chen Kai was sitting in that red van.
After just finishing the call with Qin Xiaoyu, Wang Shuai, who was sitting next to him, and Zhang Ming, who was in the front passenger seat chatting animatedly with the driver, like a social butterfly.
Both of them looked at Chen Kai and asked.
"Chen Kai, what's wrong? You don't look so good. Did something happen?"
Chen Kai explained the situation.
Zhang Ming and Wang Shuai both asked, "What? Qin Xiaoyu didn't get a ticket home? And she's standing in the rain at the station right now?"
"Then you should go quickly, Chen Kai!"
"Anyway, Shuai Zi's and my homes are just a couple more steps away. How about we two brothers get off here?" Zhang Ming and Wang Shuai told the driver, who pulled over and stopped the car.
Then they took their luggage out of the trunk.
The two brothers were also very perceptive.
It was better to let Chen Kai go to the station to pick up Qin Xiaoyu earlier.
They wouldn't get involved because they weren't very familiar with Qin Xiaoyu.
Over the past three years, Qin Xiaoyu seemed to only get along well with Chen Kai and didn't really hang out with the girls in their class.
This was mainly because they were deskmates.
"Alright then!" Seeing how understanding these two brothers were, Chen Kai didn't bother with pleasantries and immediately told the driver to turn around and head back to the train station.
Then Zhang Ming and Wang Shuai, these two brothers, ran wildly through the rain.
Suddenly, a flash of lightning streaked across.
It scared the two brothers badly.
"Good heavens, I thought it was going to strike me! Scared me to death."
Zhang Ming said to Wang Shuai as he ran through the rain.
"Shuai Zi, what do you think is the relationship between Chen Kai and Qin Xiaoyu?"
"What else could it be? Aren't they just friends?"
Zhang Ming had an expression of someone who saw through everything, "You actually believe that? That's why I say you're stupid!"
"Besides, how can there be a pure relationship between a man and a woman in this world?"
"For example, when we guys want to chase a girl, don't we all start by calling them little sisters or something?"
"This way, it can make the girl lower her guard."
"Then slowly, the little sister turns into a little darling."
"Chen Kai and Qin Xiaoyu acting like male and female friends, don't you think it's very similar to this meaning?"
Wang Shuai heard this and exclaimed, "Damn, Ming Ge, you really understand! Listening to you, it seems to make some sense. According to what you're saying, Chen Kai has those kinds of thoughts about Qin Xiaoyu?"
"What about Qin Xiaoyu's feelings for Chen Kai? Help me analyze it, brother!"
"I'm not too sure about that. I'm not very familiar with Qin Xiaoyu, and we haven't talked much in the past three years. But if Chen Kai really does have those kinds of thoughts about Qin Xiaoyu, we brothers have to help Chen Kai!"
Wang Shuai patted his chest.
"Don't worry about it, brother."
"As a brother, whatever Chen Kai needs, we'll do it without hesitation!"
"Alright then, let's arrange to have a drink with Chen Kai later."
"It's settled!"
The two brothers ran wildly through the rain and were soaking wet when they got home.
Chen Kai sat in the red van.
He turned around and went back to the station.
Then he saw Qin Xiaoyu standing there, shivering, her hair all wet.
"Chen Kai, you're finally here!"
"How is it, Xiaoyu? Don't you think I'm pretty reliable at critical moments? Am I good to you? Coming to the station to pick you up in the rain."
Qin Xiaoyu nodded, "Yes, yes, yes, Chen Kai, you're so good! You're so thoughtful, truly righteous! You came to the station to pick me up in the rain, I'm so touched. If it weren't for the difference between men and women, if I were a man, I would definitely kiss you to death! To express my gratitude to you!"
The system's electronic voice sounded.
