Chapter 84
Lin Xuyi said indignantly, “That guy went for the kill? Damn it, I can’t tolerate this. I’m going to find the people from Puce Planet and reason with them!”
Lin Xuyi was furious; this time, it was truly a settling of both new and old grudges.
Shen Shuyu sucked in a breath. “Come on, let’s go back first. I haven’t even said anything yet.”
After speaking, he turned and started walking back toward the dorms. Anyway, neither he nor Bai Wei came out looking good, but Bai Wei would still have to apologize to him later. Thinking about it this way, he still won.
Shen Shuyu grinned and grimaced in pain, but as he thought about it, he couldn’t help humming an unknown little tune.
He Mingyue looked worried. “This is bad. The Little Young Master must have been beaten silly.”
Shen Shuyu rolled his eyes at him and said, “I’m not deaf, I can hear you. Is winning not something worth being happy about?”
“Where did you win? If Xili hadn’t run fast, that punch would have sent you straight to the hospital,” Lin Xuyi complained.
Shen Shuyu said, “Wasn’t that because Ye Yang shouted? If I hadn’t been distracted, Bai Wei wouldn’t have been able to hit me at all.”
Saying this, he looked at Shen Xili, who was walking beside him with a faint smile that didn’t reach his eyes. After thinking about it, he still said, “Hey, Shen Xili.”
Shen Xili turned to look at him, his smile a bit more genuine this time. “What is it, Little Young Master?”
Shen Shuyu said awkwardly, “Thanks for what happened just now.”
He meant it sincerely, but saying thanks felt quite awkward. Counting it up, the Protagonist Shou had saved him countless times, but since he had to follow the plot, he still couldn’t be good friends with him.
Shen Xili smiled and said, “You’re welcome.”
Shen Shuyu took a breath and didn’t make another sound.
When they returned to the dorm, they found Chi Yanxun already there, and the lunch Lin Xuyi ordered had also been delivered by the AI robot.
He had already showered and changed into fresh clothes. Sitting on the sofa, he held his optical computer as if about to message someone. Seeing them return, he put the device aside and asked, “Where did you guys go?”
Chi Yanxun’s gaze landed on Shen Shuyu, who was surrounded by the others and looked miserable. He frowned. “What trouble did you cause again?”
Shen Shuyu opened his mouth, just about to explain, but the person beside him was faster.
Shen Xili crossed his arms, his expression somewhat cold. He said, “He was ambushed by Bai Wei from Puce Planet. It wasn’t him causing trouble again.”
Looking at Shen Shuyu’s state, Chi Yanxun had subconsciously assumed Shen Shuyu had provoked someone he shouldn’t have and gotten beaten up for it. He didn’t expect this to be the reason.
For a moment, it was a bit awkward; he indeed had quite a strong bias against Shen Shuyu.
Seeing the atmosphere was awkward, Lin Xuyi wanted to smooth things over, but unexpectedly, Chi Yanxun spoke again: “Why did you provoke Bai Wei again out of nowhere? Shen Shuyu, can you just stop causing trouble?”
Even if Shen Shuyu wanted to give Chi Yanxun face, he couldn’t keep his expression pleasant now.
This idiot. Right now, he wanted to treat Chi Yanxun like Bai Wei and beat him up again.
Endure, endure.
Shen Shuyu took a deep breath, clutched his shoulder, and said weakly, “Sorry, it won’t happen next time.”
“What are you apologizing for?” This time it was Wen Jiafei who spoke. He glanced indifferently at Chi Yanxun and said, “Come to my room. I’ll apply medicine for you.”
“…Okay.” Shen Shuyu looked very hurt, hung his head obediently, and left with Wen Jiafei.
A gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late.
Shen Shuyu was truly baffled. How could someone like Chi Yanxun become the Protagonist Gong!
He was simply like the ultimate villain among villains!
Lin Xuyi also felt that Chi Yanxun seemed to have an exceptionally large prejudice against Shen Shuyu. He thought for a moment and said, “I have medicine somewhere, I’ll go get some.”
After saying that, he didn’t forget to drag away the equally awkward but clearly slow-reacting He Mingyue.
Now only Shen Xili and Chi Yanxun remained in the living room.
What was supposed to be a nice welcoming gathering was left hanging in an awkward state by Chi Yanxun’s few sentences. Chi Yanxun also felt some regret, but inwardly noted another mark against Shen Shuyu—whenever he was around, nothing good ever happened.
Finally, Shen Xili offered an out. He said, “We watched your PK match with Yan Qing. You fought brilliantly, Captain Chi.”
Chi Yanxun’s expression softened a bit. He said, “It was alright. Yan Qing is indeed a very respectable opponent…”
Inside Wen Jiafei’s room.
The bedrooms prepared by the organizers for the contestants were quite nice. Although a bit small, they had everything necessary.
Except for a chair.
Shen Shuyu simply sat on the foot of the bed, watching Wen Jiafei take out a small medical kit.
Shen Shuyu had already taken off his jacket. He thought for a moment and asked, “Wen Jiafei, do I take everything off on my upper body?”
In his past life, he wouldn’t have asked, but here there were three genders: Alpha, Beta, and Omega. Although he had a male body, he had heard others say they only recognized gender (ABO).
Wen Jiafei paused, clearly not having considered this issue either.
He coughed lightly, a flush creeping up his ears for some reason. He rummaged in the wardrobe again, threw a sleeveless tank top to Shen Shuyu, and turned his back. “Call me when you’ve changed.”
Shen Shuyu looked at the tank top thrown over. Fine, better than nothing.
He changed quickly. After taking off the inner clothes, he realized the shoulder attacked by Bai Wei had already turned purple. He touched it with his finger and hissed in pain.
But Wen Jiafei remained motionless with his back turned.
Shen Shuyu said, “I’m done changing.”
Only after he spoke did Wen Jiafei turn around carrying the medical kit. His gaze fell on Shen Shuyu’s shoulder; his skin was very fair, making Shen Shuyu look even more miserable.
Wen Jiafei lowered his head, pursed his lips, and when he looked up again, he was back to his expressionless face.
He placed the medical kit on the bed, knelt on one knee on the floor, opened it, and took out the medicine for dispersing bruises. “Bear with it.”
Shen Shuyu took a deep breath, looking like he was ready. “Okay.”
But when Wen Jiafei’s fingers actually touched him, he couldn’t help shrinking back. Wen Jiafei looked up at him slightly. “Hurts?”
Shen Shuyu grimaced. “Isn’t that obvious?”
Wen Jiafei said, “I told you to bear with it.”
“If I bear it any longer, I’ll become a Ninja Turtle,” Shen Shuyu complained, but still signaled Wen Jiafei to continue.
Wen Jiafei had medicinal liquid on his fingers, and his touch unconsciously became lighter.
Shen Shuyu kept sucking in breaths, not crying out in pain anymore, but the fine sweat beading on his forehead betrayed his true feelings at this moment.
It hurt so damn much!
He was going to kill these idiot Alphas!
Wen Jiafei glanced at him and spoke, “Meeting Bai Wei, didn’t you know to run?”
Shen Shuyu didn’t expect Wen Jiafei to ask him. He said, “Couldn’t run. Tried to reason too, but he wouldn’t listen at all.”
Wen Jiafei added, “Then couldn’t you send a message on your terminal to call for help?”
Usually, he looked clever and loved to boss people around, directing them to do this and that, but when it came to a critical moment, he did nothing.
He didn’t know if Shen Shuyu was truly smart or fake smart.
“Didn’t think that much at the time,” Shen Shuyu mumbled. “Besides, Bai Wei was looking for me. Without fighting him once, he wouldn’t have been satisfied.”
Resolving this matter privately was better than burying a landmine for later.
Shen Shuyu looked down at his shoulder. Wen Jiafei was carefully lifting the tank top strap with one hand, looking rather strange.
Shen Shuyu felt awkward. In his past life, after getting injured, he either applied medicine himself or ignored it until it healed naturally. This was the first time someone treated him so meticulously.
After applying medicine to the shoulder, Shen Shuyu said, “I got kicked in the waist. Check if it’s bruised too.”
He turned sideways. Before Wen Jiafei could speak, he very efficiently lifted the clothes on his back, revealing his smooth, fair back. Indeed, a large bruise covered the left side of his waist.
Wen Jiafei’s Adam’s apple bobbed. Just as he was about to pour more medicine onto his fingers, he heard Shen Shuyu muttering, “Wen Jiafei, why are your fingers so cold? Are you cold?”
Wen Jiafei’s movements paused, his gaze falling on his fingers. Regardless of spring, summer, autumn, or winter, his hands were always icy. He didn’t think much of it, but being mentioned by Shen Shuyu, he unconsciously retracted his fingers.
Seeing Wen Jiafei taking a long time to apply the medicine, Shen Shuyu was about to turn back to look when warm fingertips touched the side of his waist.
He couldn’t help trembling. “Pain, pain, pain! Wen Jiafei, can you make a sound before applying the medicine?”
Wen Jiafei didn’t make a sound. He poured some more medicine into his hand, but instead of rushing to apply it to Shen Shuyu, he rubbed his hands together slowly. Only after feeling some warmth in his hands did he reach out. Just before touching that patch of skin…
Wen Jiafei pursed his lips.
“Squeak.”
