By now, Ling Jiwei’s pretty face was completely pale.

“Pei Yunge, you dare to do this in school?!”

It was only when Pei Yunge’s eyes moved onto her that Ling Jiwei couldn’t help but shriek.

“My dad is the Vice-President of a listed company. Pei Yunge, you can’t touch me!”

Right at that moment, Pei Yunge had just looked up and had yet to turn around when she heard a weak hiss from pain beside her.

The spark in her eyes darkened slightly. Looking away, she saw that Chu Zhixing’s breathing was messy while his face was unusually pale. He looked as if an illness was acting up.

“What’s wrong with you?”

Pei Yunge turned around and walked towards Chu Zhixing. Seeing so, Ling Jiwei and the rest instantly escaped as quickly as their legs could take them.

However, Pei Yunge didn’t have time to care about them at this moment.

“I…”

Chu Zhixing’s eyes sparkled as his pale lips moved, wanting to say something but did not. He didn’t want Pei Yunge to think that he was a monster too.

“Do you need your medication? An injection syringe?”

Hearing this, Chu Zhixing froze up completely.

Actually, Pei Yunge noticed from her very first glance that there were several injection marks on the inside of Chu Zhixing’s arm.

“I’ll send you to the infirmary first.”

“No!”

Chu Zhixing’s voice was hoarse as he hurriedly looked down, not daring to see what type of eyes Pei Yunge was looking at him with. Even his own biological mother stayed far away from fear when his illness acted up.

So he held on with gritted teeth, yet his eyes were filled with redness. His voice was so suppressed that it was trembling. “I… I just need to rest for a while.”

Suddenly, Pei Yunge’s lazy voice rang. “Do you want me to kick you a few times to wake yourself up?”

Chu Zhixing was speechless.

“Take treatment if you’re ill, got it? Who doesn’t have some kind of illness or pain?”

Chu Zhixing froze for a second before he turned to look at Pei Yunge on instinct.

However, the teenage girl in front of him only had the usual indolent lack of care on her expression. If there was one additional thing, it would be the slight annoyance she had.

She didn’t wear the fear and judgement he saw from others and didn’t treat him as a monster.

However, her annoyance was real. She intended to have a teleconference with the people in the computing institute.

Now, she had stood them up.

“Your temper is really good.” Chu Zhixing muttered as he looked down.

“…”

Pei Yunge’s eyelids twitched. “Can you get up?”

“I-I can!”

Chu Zhixing nodded like a bird pecking as he forced himself up, only to almost collapse again.

Ignoring his silent protest, Pei Yunge moved to help him a little. As she did this, she fell into contemplation. She would have had to be stupid if she didn’t know that she was the cause for all of this.

“I’m sorry.”

Chu Zhixing’s expression wasn’t too good. However, when he regained his senses, he hurriedly shook his head.

“I lent the book to you willingly. You didn’t force me to.”

Pei Yunge glanced at him.

After a while, just as Chu Zhixing thought that Pei Yunge didn’t want to speak anymore, he heard her say, “If there’s anything next time, you can look for me.”

Hearing this, Chu Zhixing’s eyes watered immediately. He gritted his teeth as he glanced towards her with careful but hopeful eyes.

“In the future, can I follow you?”

…

In the infirmary.

Pei Yunge had just sent a message to the computing institute when she arrived at the door.

“Student, did you bring Student Chu here?”

The infirmary teacher was a young woman with a neat fringe. She looked gentle and cute and wore spectacles that didn’t look imposing at all.

“Mm,” Pei Yunge then asked, “Teacher, how’s Chu Zhixing?”

“His condition is very serious. It’s a good thing you sent him here in time.”

The infirmary teacher was helpless. “This child is actually quite pitiful too. He gets bullied every other day.”

“Does he always have to inject his medication?”

“Yes, I believe that’s the case. He rarely comes to the infirmary, he’s too afraid of being seen.”

Hmm… Pei Yunge fell into deep thought.

Meanwhile, Chu Zhixing, who was sitting on the medical bed, looked down as he recalled how Pei Yunge had rejected him earlier.
