You all chase after the innocent school beauty, then I'll choose the rebellious female school b

Seeing Ye Yixian so remorseful, Lu Yuan quickly reached out and pulled her into his arms, whispering softly in her ear, "I didn't mean it that way, don't be sad."

"Really?"

Ye Yixian looked up at Lu Yuan, her eyes filled with tears and grievances that would soften anyone's heart.

If a stranger happened to witness this scene, it would be very difficult to connect the soft-looking girl in front of him with Ye Yixian, who had fought so fiercely just now.

Perhaps it's not just the little girl Wang Qingyu who has a sense of contrast; Ye Yixian does too, though she herself doesn't even know it.

Because she only ever showed her most vulnerable side to Lu Yuan.

"Of course." Lu Yuan said seriously, "Actually... I know you didn't fight Xiao Zhuo on a whim. Perhaps you had other motives, right?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Yixian was slightly taken aback and looked at Lu Yuan with surprise.

Lu Yuan smiled and said, "Did I guess wrong?"

"No, you guessed right." Ye Yixian's brows relaxed a little. "I attacked Xiao Zhuo not only because she drugged me, but also because..."

At this point, she hesitated, secretly observing Lu Yuan's expression, as if trying to confirm whether he was showing any unusual emotions.

Lu Yuan remained calm and smiled as he said, "Go on, I'm listening."

As if summoned, Ye Yixian took a deep breath and said firmly, "And it's also for you."

"Oh? For me?"

Lu Yuan became even more interested and gestured for her to continue.

Ye Yixian sniffed and said, "You and Pineapple Bro are good friends, everyone can see that. Pineapple Bro always looks down on you and Zhe Bro. Pineapple Bro has a deep friendship with you, and he certainly doesn't mind these things, but Xiao Zhuo might not think so."

"Perhaps in her mind, Pineapple Bro is a cut above you and Zhe Bro. So when Xiao Zhu took it upon herself to drug us, it wasn't a prank, but a show of force. She wanted to tell us that they were stronger and more resourceful than us. Of course, it was also a slap in your face. After all, she tricked your girlfriend, and you couldn't do anything about it."

"If we swallow our anger this time, perhaps Brother Pineapple will still respect you and Brother Zhe, but Xiao Zhuo and his gang won't. They might think you're a boss without any authority."

After Ye Yixian analyzed so much in one go, Lu Yuan's expression gradually darkened.

"Am I... right?" Ye Yixian was a little unsure, afraid that she was overthinking things, so she never dared to tell Lu Yuan her true thoughts from beginning to end.

In fact, when Ye Yixian learned that Xiao Zhu had drugged them, she had already decided to teach Xiao Zhu a lesson.

Lu Yuan suddenly smiled broadly and reached out to stroke Ye Yixian's head: "You're right."

"So you don't blame me for fighting with Xiao Zhuo, right?"

"I've never blamed you," Lu Yuan shrugged. "I was just worried about you. After all, Xiao Zhuo is trained and not easy to deal with."

"I'm not afraid at all." Ye Yixian was very happy, with a smug look on his face. "Your girlfriend is not a pushover, she won't let anyone bully her."

Lu Yuan gave Ye Yixian a thumbs up and said, "Actually, I've thought about all of what you said. But Xiao Zhuo is, after all, one of Brother Pineapple's people. Brother Pineapple and I have a relationship, so if I want to do something to Xiao Zhuo or teach her a lesson, I'll definitely have to be more subtle."

"I know," Ye Yixian nodded. "You don't want to embarrass Pineapple Bro, so you can't touch Xiao Zhuo. But I don't need to consider Pineapple Bro's feelings. Since Xiao Zhuo can bypass Pineapple Bro and make his own decisions, I can of course bypass you and make my own decisions too. This is called giving them a taste of their own medicine."

"It was because I couldn't swallow my anger that I insisted on fighting with Xiao Zhuo. No matter the outcome, it won't affect your friendship with Pineapple Bro, right?"

"Yes. And Pineapple Bro must really admire you now."

Lu Yuan nodded and gave Ye Yixian a thumbs up again.

On the surface, Ye Yixian is a girl with a bad temper and impulsive actions, but in reality, she is a person who is rough but meticulous and steady but mischievous.

Most importantly, she has a ruthless streak.

Even if she's not a ferocious lion, she's still a prickly hedgehog. Anyone who considers themselves a predator should think twice before facing her: even if you manage to kill her, you might end up with a mouthful of thorns.

However, Lu Yuan still gently rubbed Ye Yixian's head and said earnestly, "I'm very touched that you're so considerate of me. But if you have any ideas in the future, you should tell me. Don't take risks on your own. If anything happens to you, I will never forgive myself."

Ye Yixian nodded heavily, raised his hand and swore: "This is the only time! From now on, I will tell you everything I'm thinking, and I promise I will never make you worry about me again."

"Good girl."

Lu Yuan patted Ye Yixian's head again and joked, "Looks like I've been a bit negligent as a boyfriend, actually letting my girlfriend solve the problem."

"How could that be?" Ye Yixian said happily. "You're human too, and you have your own difficulties. Sometimes, as your girlfriend, I have to help you solve your problems."

When Ye Yixian said those words, Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh self-deprecatingly.

Ye Yixian, puzzled, asked, "What are you laughing at?"

"Laugh... Of course I laugh when I'm happy."

"Oh? What's making you so happy all of a sudden?"

"Of course it's you." Lu Yuan scratched Ye Yixian's nose. "I have to admit, all this time, I have indeed been a bit arrogant."

"Why do you say that?" Ye Yixian tilted her head, looking puzzled.

"I always thought it was me protecting you, but today I realized that you can also protect me in return."

Lu Yuan knew perfectly well that Ye Yixian was not a weak, pretty face. She had her own ideas, her own way of handling things, and of course, her own way of loving.

Xiao Zhuo really wanted to embarrass Lu Yuan this time.

If Xu Lingjing were in the same situation, would she be able to think as clearly as Ye Yixian?

Even if she could think so clearly, could she handle it with the same decisiveness as Ye Yixian?

the answer is negative.

This is Ye Yixian. She is different from most girls; even the outstanding Xu Lingjing cannot compare to her.

The hardships of her childhood did not destroy her; instead, they made her incredibly resilient.

A myriad of emotions were hard to express, but only a hug could convey Lu Yuan's love for Ye Yixian.

Lu Yuan pulled Ye Yixian into his arms.

Without needing to say anything, Ye Yixian knew what Lu Yuan was thinking at that moment, so she smiled sweetly.

Suddenly, Ye Yixian remembered something, ended the hug, and said with a worried look, "I'm injured, my brother will definitely worry. I don't dare to go home and face him, what should I do?"

"Haha, don't worry. You can stay at my house for a couple of days," Lu Yuan said.

"Oh, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

Ye Yixian hesitated for a moment.

Of course, it's just hesitation, not necessarily a refusal.

"What's wrong with that? My parents love you so much, they wish you could come to our house every day. Besides, we're going to visit relatives and friends for the New Year, so it would be great if you could come with me."

"This..." Ye Yixian murmured, "Okay, then I'll message my brother and tell him, hehe!"

"Good girl!"

Lu Yuan smiled indulgently.

The two looked at each other, couldn't help but lean closer, and kissed without thinking.

"Hiss~"

The moment their lips touched, Ye Yixian gasped again, "Ouch, that hurts!"
