323 Meeting the Pretty Lute Player
The next day.
During the new year, the number of students at Kyokushin was halved, but it was not completely empty.
This was because many did not have the ability to rent their own apartments, and they had to attend commercial performances during the new year, so it was very convenient to live in school.
Su Ji basically didn’t stay in the dormitory anymore. Not only her, but Meng Na and Pan Lian also rarely returned to the dormitory. If everything went well next year, they would be able to graduate, so they came to pack their things.
The moving company’s car was owned by the Pei Corporation, and because it was a female dormitory, they were looking for female employees.
While they were cleaning up upstairs, Su Ji was walking with Pei Xingxing downstairs.
Pei Xingxing was walking the cat, and Su Ji was walking him.
In a short while, he was surrounded by a group of beautiful girls.
Su Ji was wearing a pair of sunglasses, a mask, and a hat. She was covered up very well, so no one recognized her.
“Whose little brother is this? So cute!”
“I wish I’m in kindergarten!”
Pei Xingxing crossed his arms and blinked at them.
After a short while, he received his first lollipop from a young woman.
After the group of young ladies left, Pei Xingxing held up the lollipop and looked at Su Ji. “They’re not as pretty as that young lady!”
Su Ji had one hand in her pocket, looking disinterested, “indeed.”
Pei Xingxing’s fingers tugged at Su Ji’s sleeve. “I want to see that young lady.”
“I know,” Su Ji replied.
Pei Xingxing asked, “will she like me? ”
He was not very confident.
Even his biological mother didn’t like him, so would other younger and more beautiful girls like him?
Su Ji could not bear to see him like this. She furrowed her brows. “If she doesn’t, she must be blind. We don’t make friends with blind people.”
Pei Xingxing nodded calmly.
As expected, even her words were so pleasant!
A few boxes of luggage were moved down from upstairs, and Su Ji listened to the staff explain the box markings.
At this moment, a fast-walking figure came from the distance towards the dormitory building.
She had her hands in her pockets and walked with a swish. She wore a big white scarf around her neck and half of her face was hidden in the scarf.
Pei Xingxing was focused on unwrapping the big lollipop.
The girl’s footsteps gradually slowed down. Then, she walked past him and stopped after taking two steps.
Her eyes were fixed on him, on the big lollipop in his hand.
Two seconds later, she suddenly moved closer to Pei Xingxing and took the big lollipop from his hand.
The moment she got close, Pei Xingxing saw her face and recognized her as the young lady.
He had a very good memory, especially when it came to the faces of pretty girls.
He thought that she was going to help him unwrap the lollipop, but the next second, Cao Zhuzhu snatched his lollipop and ran into the dormitory.
“…”
Su Ji turned around and saw this.
“Where is your lollipop?” Su Ji asked.
Pei Xingxing pursed his trembling lips and pointed into the dormitory, “that young lady snatched my lollipop!”
His face was full of bitterness and hatred.
Su Ji said, “that young lady?”
Pei Xingxing replied, “it’s that extremely fair and beautiful lute-playing young lady!”
Su Ji: “…”
In just three minutes, Cao Zhuzhu’s figure appeared in front of the dormitory building.
This time, there were no lollipops in her hand. Instead, she had a few small items.
She did not pay attention to Su Ji and squatted down in front of Pei Xingxing. The earrings on her helix were shining brightly. She held the small items in her hands and showed them to him. “How about I exchange these for that lollipop?”
Pei Xingxing stared at her with his big eyes.
She was holding a few small figurines in her hands.
They were Buzz Lightyear, Alien, and a lute. It was obvious that the lute was a souvenir given out by the Lute Association yesterday.
Pei Xingxing might not like these things, but Bill loved them.
Pei Xingxing was a little hesitant. He did not lack toys.
Cao Zhuzhu stuffed all the toys into his coat pocket. “Are you stupid? You don’t even know that you’ve struck it rich!”
She stood up and was about to leave when she noticed Su Ji standing at the side. She was wearing sunglasses and Cao Zhuzhu did not recognize her. She only saw Pei Xingxing’s fingers tugging at the hem of her clothes. “Your brother?”
She asked emotionlessly while sizing up Su Ji. She had a good figure, and she was quite stylish.
“Kind of,” Su Ji replied.
Cao Zhuzhu didn’t give her a good look and said quickly, ” you bought the lollipop from the school’s snack shop, right? It’s a cheap product made of food coloring and a lot of sugar. I have a toothache after eating it. You don’t look like someone who lacks money. What kind of sister are you?”
She seemed quite aggressive.
Pei Xingxing opened his arms and stood in front of Su Ji, looking very brave. “She didn’t buy it for me. Don’t talk bad about her!”
“…” Upon hearing this, Cao Zhuzhu stopped talking.
She looked at Su Ji for a while and found her familiar. “Oh, I’m sorry for the misunderstanding.”
Su Ji replied, “it’s okay. Thank you for taking his lollipop away.”
Cao Zhuzhu pulled up the sleeve of her down jacket to look at the time, revealing a pink plastic flip watch.
Cao Zhuzhu seemed to be quite busy, so she did not stay for long. She glanced at them again and went upstairs.
Pei Xingxing was still a little confused. He asked Su Ji, “did she eat the lollipop?”
Su Ji touched his head, “no.”
Pei Xingxing said, “then why won’t she let me?”
Su Ji replied, “she’s worried that you’ll have a toothache.”
Pei Xingxing nodded, not fully understanding, but it seemed like she didn’t dislike him.
“She’s so pretty,” he said after a while.
**
After leaving the dormitory, the moving company’s car went straight to Su Ji’s house while Su Ji went to the Huichun Hall to return Pei Xingxing to his father. She then bought some medicine and a few sets of medical equipment.
When she was settling the bill, Pei Song happened to come out after treating a patient. He touched his son’s head and raised his chin at the pharmacist at the counter, “why are you charging my sister-in-law?”
“Let me check your wrist.”
He went to the counter. The pharmacist looked at the girl who had her face covered, and then at his boss.
Sister-in-law…
The pharmacist retreated.
Pei Song examined her and said, “I can see that Pei Huai has been applying the medicine for you quite frequently. It’s recovering well. At this rate, there won’t be any scars.”
Su Ji thanked him and packed up her things to leave.
Pei Song glanced at the few sets of equipment she had bought besides the medicine, and his eyes suddenly widened.
“You know how to use these?”
