Strawberry Kiss Mark (草莓印)🍓 by Bu Zhi Shi Ke Cai (不知是颗菜) ~Chapter 21

This time everyone is attending the class so it’s very quiet.

There are only two of them, both of them could hear each other breath.

In the air, there’re a mixed scent of strawberry and orange.

Lu Xing Yan is startled.

What is she doing?

Doesn’t she know that man and woman shouldn’t be this close?

Doesn’t she know that man’s lips are very sensitive part?

How could she look so calm like she is smearing her own lips?!

Wow it’s too close, leave a bit far away from me!!!

Before Lu Xing Yan says anything, Chen Xing Ruo has retrieved her hand.

“Okay.”

She releases her breath and takes steps back.

Lu Xing Yan stands there and doesn’t move, he says nothing. He just takes a look at Chen Xing Ruo’s lips.

Till the time Chen Xing Ruo drags her inside the classroom’s door, he is still in a daze.

Chen Xing Ruo knocks on the door lightly and yells “Report”.

Wang You Fu feels a bit astonished to see them appear together.

Before when the class just started, Wang You Fu had noticed his two students, with most pleasing appearance, are not coming.

He asked casually to the other students but no one knows about it. It’s just the class leader, He Si Yue, said that they both also didn’t attend the morning ceremony.

Wang You Fu didn’t really mind about it, he planned to find them after the class.

Actually he had found a hundred eight thousand reasons for Chen Xing Ruo. As for Lu Xing Yan, he just determined that he should be skipping the class.

“What happened to you guys, why are you just coming now?”

Chen Xing Ruo says calmly and looks at Wang You Fu: “Wang Lao Shi, this morning when I came to school. I bumped into Lu Xing Yan, he was sitting on the road side and couldn’t walk. I asked him of what happened to him. He wasn’t willing to say anything. Yet his face is very pale so I asked him whether he wants to go to the hospital, he said that he doesn’t want. He said that it’s an old illness so he doesn’t need to go to the hospital.”

She turns her head and looks at Lu Xing Yan: “Lu Xing Yan’s lower back is not very good. He frequently feels aching and numbing on his waist during the recess. I went to the pharmacy to buy medicine for him. After taking the medicine, he took another thirty minutes of rest then he could walk again.”

Wang You Fu wants to ask something more, but Chen Xing Ruo just continues: “Wang Lao Shi, I don’t bring my phone today. Lu Xing Yan’s phone is off too. So we couldn’t inform you earlier. I’m sorry.”

Wang You Fu is slow, he opens his mouth then closes it again.

Em……….her story is quite complete.

He looks at Lu Xing Yan’s pale face and expression, he seems that he is really ill.

Now he is imagining that could it be that Lu Xing Yan frequently be late because of his waist is in pain.

Lu Xing Yan is still young and underage, how could he have pain in his back.

Wang You Fu is rather feeling sorry toward Lu Xing Yan, he comforts him for a while and lets him to be positive that this illness would be cured. Then he also praises Chen Xing Ruo to be a great helper for her friend. Then Wang You Fu just let them to return to their seat.

After a while, the bell rings, the first subject is done.

Chen Xing Ruo helps Ruan Wen moves a stack of exercise booklets and follows behind Wang You Fu to leave the classroom.

The time Wang You Fu is gone, a gang of scoundrels of Lu Xing Yan’s friends come and surround him.

“Wow Yan Ge, what is your condition? Your back is in pain????”

“Da Shao Ye, could you do it or not? If you are unwell just go home.”

“Since when do you have this kind of illness? how could I not know about it?”

“You should cure it earlier!”

Lu Xing Yan is playing with his pen.

Hearing how everyone starts to mention about his back, he suddenly regains himself.

He just realizes that he has missed something.

He just be furious: “Could you guys shut up? Who did say that I have back pin?”

Everyone looks back and looks at Chen Xing Ruo, who is coming back to the class.

———

The bell, which signs the second subject would start soon, rings. The crowd just disperses. Chen Xing Ruo returns to her seat and takes her book. She says to Lu Xing Yan says: “Oh right, you should know a female student, who could do make up right. You could find someone for a make up remover.”

He has been licking her lips for more than twenty eight times.

Lu Xing Yan just asks: “did you say that I have a back pain before?”

“…….”

“Didn’t you hear me, why?”

She is really good at acting, she is good at pretending that she is innocent.

“if you want to feign illness, why didn’t you say that I had a stomachache and you were taking me to the infirmary?”

Chen Xing Ruo thinks about it: “In Ming Li, you have prestige. If I said that you were having stomachache and taken by me to the infirmary, you would lose your face. Don’t you think so…”

“Moreover according to the real situation, if you were having stomachache and couldn’t move, I definitely wouldn’t have way to take you to the infirmary as you are so heavy, I wouldn’t be able ot take you.”

“Moreover, infirmary is a place that has loopholes. Wang Lao Shi might wants to ask further about your condition, the we would be exposed.”

“…….”

She has a real good logic.

Lu Xing Yan watches her for a while: “You said that I had a back pain and couldn’t walk, a female student accompanied me to sit down on the road side, I was acting like I dragged down by having a family to feed. Do you think it somehow saves my face?”

“Do you know what is the essence of man’s back? How could you make a careless rumor?”

Chen Xing Ruo is silent: “You are really too overly sensitive.”

?

Who is she humiliating?

Chen Xing Ruo adds: “Don’t keep on looking at me, perhaps you want me to clarify it. Lu Xing Yan’s back is in very good condition. In a night he could do seven times and still be alive? —— Impossible.”

Lu Xing Yan is a bit at loss and then he just laughs: “What nonsense are you talking about? You are a female…”

“Shut up, the teacher is here.”

———

Thanks to Chen Xing Ruo, for the whole morning and afternoon, Lu Xing Yan is tangled with so-called back pain rumor.

This news spreads so quickly around the Grade 11 students. Even those who have a secret crush with him also knows about it.

Nowadays female students are much more realistic.

He is handsome and could ‘feed them rice’ but there should an addition ‘meat and veggies’. Eating a rice for a while, the development would be bad.

So most of them are pitying Lu Xing yan

In the mid afternoon when it’s time to return to the dorm to rest, Shi Qin also talks about this matter. She asks Chen Xing Ruo: “Ay Xing Ruo, last night why didn’t you come back to the dorm?”

“I have a bit trouble, I was too late to come back.”

Chen Xing Ruo is too tired, she sits down on her bed and lifts up her blanket. She is about to lay down.

Di Jia Jing is sitting on her bed and reading books, she glances at Chen Xing ruo and asks: “Oh right, Xing Ruo. Where do you live in Xing City? It seems you never mention about this.”

“Now I am living near the Luo Xing Hu”

Chen Xing Ruo lays down and gets inside the blanket, she then takes her blindfold.

Shi Qin: “Luo Xing Hu? The house there is so expensive. Last year my family looked around there, it’s too expensive!”

Even the silence Li Ting speaks up too: “I hear that Lu Xing Yan’s house also at Luo Xing Hu, but his house is on the lakeside.

Shi Qin: “How could we compare it, Lu Xing Huo is developed by his family……”

Di Jia Jing stops flipping her book.

She listens the discussion between Shi Qin and Li Ting about Luo Xing Hu for a while, then she suddenly says: “Then next time, when we go to city library, we could go to Xing Ruo’s house to visit.”

She waits for Chen Xing Ruo’s response.

“Xing Ruo, Xing Ruo?”

Shi Qin looks closer and says “Sssttt”, she says: “Lower your voice, Xing Ruo is sleeping!”

———

After the afternoon nap, Chen Xing Ruo feels a bit better. Shi Qin and Di Jia Jing are talking about the school’s anniversary this year. She drinks milk and narrows her eyes.

“Chen Xing Ruo!”

There’s a male voice calling after her.

Three of them turn their head to see him.

He Si Yue smiles and comes forward to greet them. Then he just walks beside Chen Xing Ruo and says: “Chen Xing Ruo, this year for Ming Li’s anniversary, every class should have two candidates to go through performer selection. Wang Lao Shi (Teacher Wang) let me ask around about students’ abilities. I heard that you could play piano so I want to ask you whether you want to perform.”

Chen Xing Ruo: “It’ been a long time since I practiced.”

He Si Yue smiles gently: “It’s okay. You also know that we are from experimental class, we have art student. So we only have limited students with those skills. We don’t need to pass the selection, we only need to join.”

Chen Xing Ruo isn’t an embarrassed and shy person, so she doesn’t refuse He Si Yue any further.

———

They just chat while and go to the sport field.

There are several male students are playing balls on the sport field, they are Lu Xing Yan and friends.

This time it’s a break time between game, Lu Xing Yan and Li Cheng Fan are drinking waters on the sport field’s side area.

This time it’s not time yet to go to the class, a lot of female students are peeking and watching the male students, who are playing ball.

Those male students are used to it. Li Cheng Fan always says: “Playing ball without any female student’s praise, what would be fun with it.”

In ordinary days those friends of Lu Xing Yan would use the female students to mock Lu Xing Yan. Today is no exception, it’s just the wind is blowing in different direction.

Zhao Lang Ming: “Ay Lu Shao Ye (Master Lu), do you know that today you have made a great sensation today? Now everyone in the school has known about this rumor.”

“What?”

Lu Xing Yan hasn’t responded.

Li Cheng Fan is happy and speaks up: “It’s about your backache, a lot of students are discussing about it.”

Lu Xing Yan feels so furious about it and just kicks Li Cheng Fan and sounds sick of it: “D*mm*t, I’m okay.”

Those friends just think that he is just embarrassed so he gets angry, they are so happy.

Zhao Lang Ming also adds vivid details about it, he says: “Ay, Lu Xing Yan is handsome, indeed he is handsome, but it’s too pity that his back couldn’t hold it.”

Lu Xing Yan picks up the water bottle and throws it to Zhao Lang Ming. His gaze turns cold: “D*mmit, why don’t you feel pity to not be able to see first moon twice in 2262?”

He is repeating what Chen Xing Ruo said that time.

Though he doesn’t understand but he feels that it’s seem cool to resent other with that kind of words.

Hearing a familiar voice and words, Chen Xing Ruo stops.

Lu Xing Yan seems to notice Chen Xing Ruo, he looks back.

Their gazes are separated with the net.

Then Lu Xing Yan hears his friends start to yell——-

“What? Why there would be twice first moon in 2262?”
