Hui You Tian Shi Ti Wo Ai Ni - Chapter 1.3

Dont sit there anymore.
Wei Guo Guo pulled Xiao Mi out of the classroom, and whispered to her. Since she had said that she would be her friend, she has the duty of informing her of the important stuff.
Why?
Yi Tang Yao is the most incorrigible person in this school!
Why do you say so? Xiao Mis eyes grew wide.
He always skips class, and has already failed three subjects. The calculus, accountancy and statistics teachers have marked his name five times this semester, and he ceased to show up time and again. Those teachers then made a bold remark towards him before the exam, Yi Tang Yao, you dont have to take the exams, youll definitely fail anyway!
Then, did he really fail?
Yeah! All three subjects scored 59 marks. Wei Guo Guo giggled. I seriously hate his guts the most. Even if he doesnt show up, he could at least be quiet about it. There had been frequent cases where he would come in late like today, and disrupt the class.
59 marks Xiao Mi was stunned. That means, if he hadnt been missing classes, he should be able to pass
Who knows? It could be that the teachers did it out of pique on purpose.
Oh, I see. Xiao Mi shot a faraway glance at Yi Tang Yao, who was still asleep on his desk. A feeling of dejection slowly glided across her heart.
He also loves fighting! There have been at least two incidents in which he had landed someone in hospital! Wei Guo Guo pouted. But, his family is rich. No matter how serious the incident, it seems like his mother can always settle it. That is why he could remain this contumelious, going about his ways like a tyrant in school compounds.
A tyrant? In the morning when she sent him to hospital, it was true that he was fierce; when he was late for class, it isnt wrong to say he wasnt haughty either. But, the Yi Tang Yao as of now was sleeping like a child. Xiao Mi completely couldnt pin the image of a tyrant on him.
Wei Guo Guo scrutinized Xiao Mi, whose head was lost in the clouds. Hey, Xiao Mi!
Hm?
Do you enjoy reading shoujo manhua?
I dont read much.
Wei Guo Guo clutched her chest, and breathed out. Huu, thats good, thats good. You mustnt be like those girls, rambling about how a man gets more attractive the meaner he is. Each of them twirls around Yi Tang Yao, putting up their innocent girl facades as they infatuate about him. They cant even be shaken away, how shameless. All of them had been shot with the venom of shoujo manhua.
Xiao Mi broke into a laugh. Wei Guo Guo, thanks.
Why are you thanking me?
You do take good care of me. She smiled at Wei Guo Guo, her eyes clear and transparent. I am very lucky, arent I? To have been able to know you.
Wei Guo Guo was moved by her words, and clasped Xiao Mis hands in hers. I like you a lot as well! I guess this should be fate, well definitely become bosom friends. As she said this, she abruptly widened her eyes. Haha, come quickly and see this! A good show is about to unfold!
Xiao Mi followed her gaze to the direction she spoke of
Waa, what a virtuous, beautiful girl.
A sparkling, delicate face, big hazy eyes that garnered sympathy. Long, ebony hair flowed and dispersed at her waist, as it swayed around a slim, emaciated figure.
That girl strode into the classroom, and every mans eyes were fixated on her. Pink bubbles floated up; their gaping mouths forgotten to close. Xiao Mi had always thought such a beautiful girl would only exist in Grandmother Liang Yaos novels. How delicate. Her entire disposition gives people the overwhelming urge to want to protect her.
Shes Na Lu, belle of the literary department.
Her surname is rather strange.
Yeah, Ive heard that she is of Manchurian bloodline, the descendant of some long gone dynasty. Wei Guo Guo snickered. She has always proclaimed herself to be Yi Tang Yaos guardian angel. God knows how many infatuated hearts she has shattered.
Na Lu walked to the front of Yi Tang Yaos desk, and gazed at him silently. Her gentle, considerate expression made her look like a pure angel, with wings sprouted from her back.
Youve come, havent you?
She spoke to him, her voice wispy and dream-like, as if afraid that her voice would disturb him.
What utter crap! If he hadnt come, was what youve seen a ghost? Yang Ke Wei snorted coldly, as she rose from her seat. She took large strides towards Yi Tang Tao, and segregated him, pushing Na Lu out of the way. She spoke, the ends of her lips curled into a superficial smile. Idiot, cant you see that hes sleeping? Shove off, dont badger him!
Na Lu ignored Yang Ke Wei, and continued to stare at Yi Tang Yao, smitten.
Are you still well? Why are you this exhausted?
Yang Ke Wei shook off goosebumps, a shiver running through her body. Dont you find yourself sickening?
Na Lu versus Yang Ke Wei, battle 301. Wei Guo Guo shook her head. This is a classic show of battle. Basically, once Yi Tang Yao appears, well hear the drums playing as the performance begins.
Theyre both his girlfriends? They seem to belong to completely different types.
Both? Ha ha, youre underestimating Yi Tang Yao. His girlfriends can fill a truck. Its just that these two are more dramatic, and have made their affairs known to all.
The rays of sunlight that come after rain scattered into the classroom.
A gentle delicate girl, a cold gorgeous lady; amidst these two, Yi Tang Yao was having a sweet sleep sprawled across the table, snoring lightly.
Sunlight akin to glass.
Shone vibrant and transparent on Yi Tang Yaos body.
Xiao Mi had a sudden thought. In his dream, there must lie a peaceful world.
Shut up!
Yi Tang Yao growled furiously, his whole face spelling drowsiness having been deprived of sleep. He glared at Yang Ke Wei and Na Lu, both of which were buzzing incessantly like houseflies.
Im sorry Na Lus eyes instantly filled with tears, as she peeked at him guiltily. Ive bothered you, havent I? Its all my fault
You know its wrong, yet youre always here pestering him, what the hells with you? Yang Ke Wei rolled her eyes at her.
Scram.
Yang Ke Wei was taken aback, and stared at him disbelievingly.
I said scram! Didnt you hear me?! Yi Tang Yaos eyes glowed with rage, as he hollered at Yang Ke Wei. Scram–! I remembered telling you last week, that I have absolutely no interest in you!
The class dipped into silence.
Dead silence.
Everyone in class were dumfounded by the spectacle unfolded before them!
His voice was deafening. Even Xiao Mi, who was standing outside the classroom, could hear him crisp and clear. Yang Ke Weis face flashed red then white. Finally, her face crumpled and she ran out of class in tears.
I havent seen you in such a long time. Is it because something bad happened recently?
Yi Tang Yao pushed her aside, and muttered with irritation.
You leave as well, I want to sleep.
Na Lu froze awkwardly on the spot. Seconds passed, and she eventually let out a cough, plastering a forced smile on her face. Okay, then Ill leave first. Rest well.
Yi Tang Yao fell back onto his desk to resume his sleep.
And just like that, Yi Tang Yao slept in the classroom for an entire afternoon.
When the rumbles of hunger seized his stomach for the 13th time, Yi Tang Yao cursed and groaned in his sleep, as he shifted his body about.
What the hell! His arm ached, while his back and waist had stiffened to the extent of getting numb.
He furrowed his brows, groaning as he collapsed back on his desk.
With an incorrect sleeping posture, its normal for the body to hurt. And youll get sick easily. A vivacious voice rang beside him.
Yi Tang Yaos eyes flew open in shock!
Sunlight scattered in through the window, as it bounced off the girls face in a candescent glow. It was as if she was enveloped in brightness. Only a pair of playful eyes that arched like crescents, as well as dimples the size of grains can be seen. The girls hair was short, thinly cropped. It was soft, making it seem wildly disobedient, waving about in its tiny strands amidst golden sunlight.
He squinted his eyes and surveyed her.
You again? Why do you seem to hound me like a ghost?
My name is Mi Ai, you can just call me Xiao Mi. A huge smile revealed on Xiao Mis face. I am the new student who has just transferred here today!
Everyone else had left the class since long ago; only Yi Tang Yao and Xiao Mi remained.
Yi Tang Yao rose, his brows knit together, as he reached out an arm to grab Xiao MI.
Shove off!
Are you hungry?
Xiao Mi seemed to not mind his nasty tone, and questioned him cheerily.
Yi Tang Yao was annoyed. What do you want?!
Xiao Mi blinked, and materialized a packet of milk and bread from her back as if by magic. She waved them about in front of him.
You must be hungry, Ill treat you!
Yi Tang Yao folded his arms in a commanding pose as he stared down at her from the corners of his eyes. Earlier in the morning, she had pushed him out of the rental taxi onto the ground; his arms still hurt even now. He was already at his tolerance limit not calculating with her for it, yet what is she playing up now.
Xiao Mi poked the straw into the milk packet, and placed it in his hands, smiling.
Drink up.
Initially, she should have made use of the time after the class to finalise the school transfer procedures. But, she heard his stomach rumble, and thus rushed out to buy food back for him.
Gu
The noise of hunger pangs resounded from his body once again.
Xiao Mi raised her right hand, and grinned. I swear, the food isnt poisoned!
His eyes ran through her, as he pulled out the straw and tossed it away. He then ripped open the milk packet, raised his head, and downed it in huge gulps. A large part of the packet of milk nestling in his stomach, his urgent voracity was eased. He sat back on the desk in a suave pose, his eyebrows raised.
What do you want from me?
What a mysterious girl. One moment, she poked her nose into his business and sent him to hospital; the other moment she pushed him off the car. And now, she offered him milk and bread. She must be trying to get his attention in order to be his girlfriend. He has seen way too many of her kind.
What do I want? Xiao Mi was befuddled, her eyes opened wide.
Yi Tang Yao smiled devilishly.
My dates have been packed all the way till next month, youre welcome to wait if you have the patience. But Irritation flashed through his eyes. It would be embarrassing if youre still this hideous during the date.
Oh
Xiao Mi broke into a smile. She scratched her head, and held up a stack of papers from his desk. This, when do you intend to write it?
Yi Tang Yao glanced over.
It was the Human Resource thesis Professor Bo had flung towards him.
Why should I write this?
You cant pass if you dont do it! Xiao Mi was on tenterhooks. I have looked through other classmates theses after class, and actually it doesnt have to be written very professionally or complexly. You just have to have your own opinion, it doesnt need to be long.
Yi Tang Yao laughed scornfully. How can he fail? If he was unable to graduate successfully, the fund for the schools new library would be unable to culminate huge donations. Professor Bo isnt a moron who doesnt understand the situation.
What has it go to do with you?
His cold gaze scrutinized her face full of concern.
Xiao Mi was stunned, and she pondered for a while, before regaining her smile. I want to be your guardian angel!
Pfft
Yi Tang Yao choked on his milk, and spluttered out, laughing in his surprise as he felt her forehead with the back of his hand. If youre sick, go to the hospital to see a doctor. And, dont read too much manhua, youll get poisoned!
As he finished, he bent forward and strode out of the classroom.
Xiao Mi hugged onto the thesis, as she sat on her seat in a daze. After a while, she scratched her head and laughed bitterly. She must have been too impatient.
But
She had been searching for him for so long.
