The Female Lead is a Black Lotus - Chapter 13
Lin Siyi looked at the buildings in front of her and was stupidly flabbergasted, “These… are all medical buildings?”
Nan Xueqing looked at her, “Never been here?”
Lin Siyi shook her head.
Where is this still some kind of medical room, it’s not even an exaggeration to say that it’s a central city hospital.
Lin Siyi followed Nan Xueqing as she walked until she stopped at a hospital room.
Looking at her, “I still have some things to do, I’ll come back for you later.”
“Okay, I’ll wait,”
Before the words “I will wait for you” had even been said, the female lead had already turned away very coldly.
Lin Siyi sighed, why are all the young people so impatient nowadays.
“Who’s out there, is it Nan Xueqing?”
“It’s not Nan Xueqing, it’s me.” Lin Siyi pushed the door open, “Xiao Rui, I’m here to see you.”
The smile on Xiao Rui’s face instantly disappeared, “What are you doing here?”
There was a moment of embarrassment at the other’s unabashed attitude, and she placed the basket of fruit she was carrying on the table beside her.
“I came to apologize to you, Xiao Rui.”
“Don’t say anything,” Rui looked at her, “I know you better than you think, so you don’t have to hide anything from me.”
It was a little more difficult than she thought it would be.
Lin Siyi immediately jumped on the side of the bed and tried to close the distance, “I wasn’t trying to hide anything. I just wanted to come and apologize to you.”
“So you’re admitting that you did it on purpose?”
Lin Siyi hesitated, then nodded her head.
Nan Xueqing, who was standing in the doorway, narrowed her eyes and a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth, then left.
“But I especially regretted it afterwards.”
“I shouldn’t have hurt my best friend for my own selfish desires, I’m simply worse than an animal!”
Xiao Rui was stunned. The previous Lin Siyi would never admit her mistakes.
Lin Siyi held her hand smoothly, “Xiao Rui, I figured it out. You were right in the past, Nan Xueqing’s actually quite good. I was really blinded by lard in the past, I actually went against her in every way.”
“Now that I think about it, people as kind as Xueqing are really rare. I should go and learn her kindness instead of being jealous of her, so I’ve decided, from today onwards, I will never go against her again. She, Nan Xueqing, is my role model, I want to learn from her!”
Lin Siyi finished in one breath, a little out of breath, took a deep breath and looked at the other with open eyes, “Xiao Rui, it’s my fault for letting you get hurt. I wouldn’t even be able to die 10,000 times over.”
“As long as you’re willing to forgive me, I’m willing to be a cow and a horse!”
Xiao Rui looked into the other’s sincere eyes, but for a moment she didn’t know if what she said was true or not.
“You’re my friend, there’s no need to be a cow or a horse, but I hope that what you said today is true.”
“I will monitor you, and if I find out that you are targeting Nan Xueqing again, I will never forgive you again.”
I can’t believe that it’s only been a day or two, but the original owner’s best friend is so nice to the owner.
Lin Siyi nodded her head seriously.
“As long as you’ll forgive me, I’ll suffer no matter how much I’m wronged.”
Xiao Rui: “…..”
How does that sound like she’s bullying her.
———-
The abandoned school building was filled with dust, when Nan Xueqing entered, her brows furrowed together.
The long corridor was dark and gloomy, and she suddenly stopped in her tracks to look at a classroom, where the lights flickered on and off.
A pair of eyes met hers, and Nan Xueqing pushed open the door.
“Meow,” the gray cat called weakly.
“Nan Xueqing.” Yang held the grey cat in his arms and got up and walked over to her.
“I brought something I wanted to give to Aversion to eat, but I never expected to see it like this.”
Yang gently touched the cat’s head, “It must have eaten something unclean.”
Nan Xueqing looked towards the grey cat that was weakly nestled in Yang’s arms.
Feeling the sight of his master, Aversion wanted to paw out of Yang’s embrace and jump into the other’s arms.
But it was so weak that it lost its sturdy grace and actually fell in mid-air.
Nan Xueqing reached out her hand to easily catch it and brought it directly into her arms.
Feeling the warmth of its master, it rubbed against her in a disgusted manner, then narrowed its eyes.
Nan Xueqing saw the blood mark on its neck disappear and stroked it, “Looks like it really ate something unclean.”
Yang approached and touched the grey cat as well, “Poor Aversion, I don’t know how long it will be miserable this time.”
Nan Xueqing looked at Yang in front of her. Her eyes were cold, “You put something out.”
Yang, “Nan Xueqing, are you doubting me?”
She walked to the corner of the classroom where there was a small nest and she placed the grey cat on it.
“Meow” the grey cat’s eyes were pitiful, not wanting to leave its master’s embrace at all.
Yang stood in the same place a little nervous.
Nan Xueqing, however, didn’t even give him a glance.
Passing by his side and walking towards the door.
“Xueqing, it’s not me. Please believe me, I would never hurt you.”
However, the other party didn’t even stop in her steps.
Yang walked to the doorway and watched the other party’s back as it drifted away, a pained look appearing on his handsome face.
“You’ll believe me.”
————
Lin Siyi talked a lot in the hospital room, and was relieved to see that the other party almost believed her.
She took a glance at the time, “Strange, why hasn’t Xueqing come over yet?”
Xiao Rui picked up her phone, dialed out and hmmmed a few times, looking at Lin Siyi, “Xueqing went home first, and asked me to tell you not to wait for her.”
“She went home first, did she encounter something?”
Xiao Rui shook her head, “I don’t know.”
She looked a little surprised at the other’s worried face, “You, the relationship between you and Nan Xueqing looks good now?”
When the other party said that, Lin Siyi was momentarily embarrassed and waved her hand, ” Well, it’s just so-so. We just slept together for two nights.”
Xiao Rui always felt that something wasn’t quite right, but she couldn’t say what exactly.
“It’s getting late, you’d better go back to rest early.”
In fact, Lin Siyi wanted to slip away a long time ago, after all, she couldn’t make up any more words on the spot.
But didn’t dare to actively mention it, just in case all the previous efforts were lost, so she kept waiting for her female lead to return.
Although she didn’t want to wait, but since the other party had asked, she…
Xiao Rui looked at the other party’s face as if she was reluctant to leave and smiled, “Well, since you know you’re wrong, I won’t directly give you a death sentence. As for now, it is the observation stage. Go back to rest soon, you still have classes tomorrow.”
“Then… I’ll head out first?” Lin Siyi was full of reluctance, “If I didn’t have class early tomorrow morning, I would have wanted to sleep with you tonight.”
Xaio Rui smiled, “There will be opportunities later, now go.”
It was already a bit late outside when Lin Siyi left the medical room.
She looked towards the lights on in the dormitory and hesitated with her grip on the handle.
Zhang Hua’s ghost shouldn’t still be in her room!
Just as she was about to step back to find the female lead for another night of bonding, the door was opened.
Chen Xing was wiping her hair with a towel and looked at Lin Siyi in front of her with a strange look, “What are you standing here for?”
Lin Siyi hadn’t expected her roommate to return.
So would that mean that there was no reason to go to the female lead?
Somehow she was a little sad.
But on the surface Lin Siyi still gave a very silly smile, “Hehe, when did you come back?”
Chen Xing looked at the other party smiling at her, a little surprised, she accused her of taking Zhang Hua’s money during the day, shouldn’t she be angry?
Noticing her expression, Lin Siyi walked into the dorm and quickly looked around, only to relax when she saw that nothing was out of place.
She looked towards the bathroom where the heat was bubbling, “Have you washed up, if you’re done, I’ll go wash myself.”
Chen Xing was about to say something when she saw the other party slipping into the bathroom with a lump of clothes humming a tune.
“Is this some weird trick?”
Chen Xing muttered to herself, “I haven’t been back a few times before…”
After taking a shower, Lin Siyi was blowing her hair.
Chen Xing held it in for a long time but still couldn’t help but ask, “Does Zhang Hua’s death have anything to do with you or not?”
“Ah, I’ve eaten, you don’t have to worry.”
Afraid that the other party wouldn’t hear, Lin Siyi even shouted especially loudly.
Chen Xing felt that her ears were going deaf.
Compared to her voice, the sound of the hairdryer suddenly became all gentle.
It took almost ten minutes of blowing before Lin Siyi felt that her hair was almost dry.
Just after turning off the hairdryer, Chen Xing’s voice popped up, “Does Zhang Hua’s death have anything to do with you or not!”
“Pah” Lin Siyi was so scared that the hairdryer in her hand fell right to the floor.
“Okay okay, it’s not broken.”
Seeing Lin Siyi squatting on the ground touching her hairdryer, Chen Xing couldn’t help but get up and walk closer, “I’m asking you, does Zhang Hua’s death have anything to do with you or not!”
Lin Siyi looked up at her, an unprecedented amount of anger appeared on her face.
Chen Xing couldn’t help but take a few steps back, had she finally managed to reveal her original face?
However, “I was just blow-drying my hair and you asked me that question, right? I answered it all, why did you even come closer and ask me to tell you. How embarrassing for me to have you ask me so many more questions!”
Honestly, she didn’t see the slightest bit of embarrassment on the other’s face at all.
Lin Siyi put the hairdryer away.
“However, Zhang Hua’s death really has nothing to do with me.”
“Then how did she die?”
“I’m curious too, but I should be able to find out tomorrow.”
Chen Xing, “How do you know?”
Rubbish, all the gossip was sure to be all over the place the next day.
However, she definitely wouldn’t say it like that, “Guessed.”
Looking at the other party’s smiling face, Chen Xing suddenly didn’t bother talking to the her anymore.
“I’m turning off the lights.”
“Hey”
Before Lin Siyi finished, the lights were turned off.
Did you turn off the lights this early without even a simple late-night emotional exchange between roommates?
As soon as Lin Siyi put the blanket over her head, life was meaningless for a moment.
The air was quiet for a long time, and just as Lin Siyi was about to fall asleep, Chen Xing’s voice suddenly sounded.
“Why did Zhang Hua give you the money, do you dare to say that you didn’t extort it?”
After not hearing the other party’s reply for a long time, Chen Xing felt that she must be feeling guilty.
As a result, one word slowly floated out.
“Dare.”
As the word fell, Lin Siyi dozed off.
In her muddleness, Chen Xing seemed to have said something else, but she didn’t hear it clearly.
Zhou Gong, who was patronizing her, went to play chess1.
1 “Dreaming of Zhou Gong” or “playing/fishing with Zhou Gong” is an expression to say someone is sleeping. Zhou Gong is also known as “The God of Dreams” and have written the book Duke of Zhou Interprets Dreams, similar to Sigmund Freud’s “Interpretation of Dreams”. The only difference between the two is that Zhou Gong is deeply integrated into Chinese culture. It is somewhat true now that I think about it.
