Meng Xiaozhi Sugar Core

"Li Xiaomeng, take off your mask when you enter the house. It's so uncomfortable to wear it." She looked at me with her head tilted.

"It's better not to do that. What if I'm in the incubation period of a cold? It would be a big deal if I infect you with the cold!" I was indeed worried about this. After all, the resistance of albinos is weaker than that of ordinary people, and this flu poses a huge threat to her.

I just got home from get off work. I won't be working tomorrow. I've asked for leave because something unexpected happened at home. But I don't think I'll update soon.

Chapter 63: The Secret of Dawn

"That's about it. And these are the homework assigned by the teacher and the content that needs to be prepared."

Chenxi explained very carefully, like a little teacher, repeating all the progress of the class and the homework. I asked her for some manuscript paper and started to write down some of the class content and key questions of the homework in preparation for tutoring Tang Xin. Chenxi saw that I sat down and wrote something seriously, so she didn't bother me and started reading a book by herself.

Half an hour later, Chenxi came to my side, looked at the manuscripts I had written, and asked me, "Why did you copy down the homework questions? Can't you just write them here?"

"Ah, actually I just want to write one for Tang Xin."

"Huh? Is that so?" She picked up the manuscript with interest and began to read it.

After looking at it for a while, she continued.

"You wrote it so thoughtfully. It's almost as good as a teacher's lesson plan!" Chenxi was a little surprised. "Actually, there is one more question I've always wanted to ask."

"Well, you ask." I was writing my lecture notes and didn't pay much attention to Chenxi's words.

"Do you like Tang Xin?"

Swish! The pen scratched the fragile manuscript paper.

"I...no, no..." The sudden question left me at a loss as to how to answer.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you're still trying to quibble." Chenxi took a stool and sat next to me, "Actually, I'm pretty good at observing people."

"No." My face started burning as if my inner secret had been revealed, but I kept on making excuses.

"The way you look at her is different from the way you look at others."

"We are good friends."

"Then you, Zhang Xueyan and Bai Xilu are not good friends?" she asked back.

"..."

"It's okay, don't be afraid. I will keep this secret for you. Can I tell you a secret too? Actually, I like girls too~" Chenxi calmly told his secret.

"Eh?"

"Then answer me first, do you like Tang Xin?" She looked at me with a smile, without any emotion.

"Well, I guess I like it." In the end, I admitted my inner thoughts.

"Sure enough. I once liked a girl, but she was just playing with me." Chenxi's face revealed a little sadness, "Have you ever kissed her?"

"No...no, why is it so sudden?" When she asked me this, I imagined the scene of Tang Xin kissing me. My face turned even redder and my back felt like it was burning.

"Eh hey hey? You haven't confessed to her yet?"

"No."

"Fear?"

"Ah."

"That's right. I was also deceived at first. He said he liked me and kissed me out of the blue."

Chenxi fell into memories and slowly told the story of the past -

"Chenxi, do you know what it feels like to kiss?" Xiao Xiao stared at Chenxi with big eyes.

Chenxi felt itchy when she was stared at by her. She was not clear about her own feelings at the moment, but she just felt that Xiao Xiao was very cute, beautiful, caring, and especially good to her.

"I don't know?" Chenxi said ignorantly. She had only seen male and female protagonists kissing in movies and she just felt a little shy.

"Do you want to try it?" Xiao Xiao looked at her cunningly.

"Eh? With whom?" Chenxi was a little shy.

"With me~"

"If it's Xiao Xiao, then it's okay~" Although Chenxi was ignorant, she still understood the meaning of a kiss, although she didn't know what it meant for such a thing to happen between two girls.

"Hmm~"

Xiao Xiao pecked at her gently, and Chen Xi felt soft and tender, like cotton candy, sweet. At this moment, Chen Xi finally realized that she actually liked Xiao Xiao. She hated boys. She hated boys laughing at her, bullying her, isolating her, and calling her names. Only Xiao Xiao stayed by her side to accompany her and encourage her.

This memory is sweet, a brand engraved in my heart.

But she didn't know that Xiao Xiao just treated her as a friend, and the so-called kiss was just a practice she wanted. She was gay, but Xiao Xiao was just bisexual, and Xiao Xiao liked the class flower more. They were together, and Chenxi was just a poor third party.

The night when Xiao Xiao rejected her, Chenxi cried so hard that she became seriously ill due to her weak immune system. Chenxi's parents didn't know what was going on and were heartbroken for their daughter.

After recovering, Chenxi changed. She became a good girl in her parents' eyes and Lin Daiyu in the eyes of her neighbors. She became more obedient, less smart and less lively.

……

"Until later, I met you." Chenxi said with a smile, "I saw my former self in you."

"I?"

"Well, I envy Tang Xin so much. She has such a good person who likes her..."

"You will find your other half, there will always be that someone!" I didn't know how to comfort her.

"Let it be. If there is someone who really likes me, I would be scared too." She smiled bitterly.

"Why?"

"Because people with albinism don't live long. What will happen to her if I die? She has already endured enough worldly looks. I can't rest assured about her."

I don’t know how Chenxi said these words so calmly, nor do I know how long it took her to see her reality clearly. I felt like there was something stuck in my throat and I was speechless.

"Chenxi, please don't say that. Maybe your illness can be cured soon?"

"Don't comfort me, this is a genetic disease. Long-term illness makes a good doctor..." She shook her head, "By the way, you don't have to worry about me. You should think about how to face Tang Xin. Now that you dare to face yourself, you should find time to confess, right?"

"Well...how about taking another look?"

"Li Xiaomeng! You are the one who can reject those who pursue you. You can throw away their love letters and refuse their dates. But can you guarantee that Tang Xin will do that? Do you know why Tang Xin caught a cold?"

My heart skipped a beat. I really didn’t know this. I was going to be with Tang Xin tomorrow, so how come I wasn’t infected?

"...Please don't be unhappy when I tell you this?" Chenxi looked at me cautiously.

"You said..." I bit my lip, feeling a little complicated.

"I saw her walking in the playground with the school hunk Chen Dinan the other day... Chen Dinan was from Class 15, and there was a flu outbreak in their class."

My mind went blank with a bang, and the pen in my hand fell to the ground with a clatter. No, Tang Xin wouldn't like someone so superficial, right? How could Tang Xin like a boy? The scenes with Tang Xin reappeared in front of my eyes. She was so close to me, how could it be! Even if I liked someone else, how could it be him...

Two hot tears flowed down her cheeks.

It could be anyone, how could it be him?

"Ahhh! Xiaomeng, don't cry!" Chenxi panicked, "Maybe they just happened to meet, they don't necessarily mean they are together!!"

Chapter 64: Lost Soul

"Thank you~ I originally wanted to comfort you, but ended up causing you trouble." After calming down, I felt a little embarrassed.

"Don't say that. I think you're having a hard time, just like I was before." Chenxi sighed, "I think you should think about the next countermeasures, right?"

I stood up and tried to go home, but sat back down.

"Ok?"

"I'll finish copying the stuff first."

"..."

-

Before noon, I finished copying most of the exercises, asked Chenxi for some of her homework, and left her house. When I got home, I found that Xiaoling had gone out at some point. I looked at the masks in the hallway and found that two were missing. It seemed that she listened to me, but I was the only one left at home.

I was a little hungry, and I was a little worried about whether Xiaoling had eaten lunch, but then I thought that she was already in junior high school, and it was not necessary for adults to worry about her meals. After making some porridge for myself, I continued to prepare handouts for Tang Xin. However, when I was preparing handouts, my mind was full of Tang Xin's affairs, and I couldn't concentrate at all. What I cared about most was Chen Dinan.

In my previous life, I did have a lot of interactions with Chen Dinan, because he was one of the few boys in the liberal arts class who could play football. He was quite familiar with the boys in our class and often played games with them in the activity class. Because of his strong physique and good endurance, he was very powerful as a striker. As for why I cared so much, it was because this guy was a complete playboy! When we were playing football in the activity class before, he would often brag to me about how many girlfriends he had and how many virgins he had harvested.

"Li Xiao, pass the ball quickly!"

I pushed the ball lightly and passed it to Chen Dinan. This guy's one-on-one technique was amazing. With just a few simple dribbles, he knocked down the two opposing midfielders and shot the ball directly into the goal.

"Good shot!" His teammates rushed up and high-fived him to celebrate.

"Good pass." He came over and patted my shoulder. "It's so easy to play with a midfielder like you."

I laughed and said, "No, you are really good. You run fast. Their guards can't catch up with you."

In fact, high school football games are more exciting than college games. At that time, the students' physical strength is at its peak, and playing a 60-minute big game is easy. In college, it's good to play a small game for half an hour.

Because Chen Dinan is a winger, he has to return to the midfield to meet me from time to time.

"Dude, you're a good football player, why don't you play as a striker?" At this time, the ball was kicked out of the field and flew far away. Someone ran over to pick it up and took a break from his busy schedule to chat with me.

"The forward is too tired and his physical strength is not very good. He may not have the energy to study during the evening self-study session." Chen Dinan leaned very close to me, which made me a little uncomfortable.

"Oh, you're still a good student. Ha, unlike me, who doesn't study all day and just likes women." Chen Dinan laughed, "Have you found a girlfriend?"

He put his arms around my neck and put his hands on my shoulders. To be honest, I don’t really like this kind of person who is so familiar with others, and I feel uncomfortable with physical contact.

"No...no." I pushed his hand away.

"I'll introduce one to you next time?" He smiled maliciously, "Tell me and I'll take you flying. Which one do you like?"

"The ball is coming, let's talk after the kick." As soon as I saw the ball was already on the field, I quickly pushed him forward...

-

Thinking back to this guy, he was simply the worst. He relied on his pretty face to sneak into the liberal arts class. He must have some bad intentions. He often talked to me, such as "Do you know XXX girl? She's so flirty, etc." He made dirty jokes in public, which caused laughter that I didn't know whether it was envy or ridicule. He was shameless and proud of it.

"How to do!"
