I Chose to Fake My Death - Chapter 53

If you enjoy this novel I would appreciate you rating it on NU.

“Lan Hao Yu, please concentrate on class. If your attention keeps wandering like that, I’ll ask you to go to the hallway to listen.”

Most of the thirty or forty students in the class turned to look at him with a puzzled expression. Lan Hao Yu had always been one of the top students and had a good relationship with most people. This is pretty much the campus wide consensus of him. That doesn’t mean he is timid, just that he wouldn’t do something and be so easily caught. It’s because of that that everyone is so puzzled. Is it now ’Springtime’ for Lan Hao Yu?

This is happening in English class. Lan Hao Yu was named and criticized by the substitute teacher for being so distracted in class. In fact, the reason it happened is his expression as he’s showing off a picture of his ‘cute new pet’ to his desk mate. Regardless, in the eyes of his desk mate, he is a winner in life.

After he was reprimanded, he pulled himself together and sat up straight in his seat.

“Why are you pretending like you were struck by lightning?”

Yu’s deskmate asked quietly with a sullen and guilty expression. So quietly, that Yu almost couldn’t hear him clearly. Yu didn’t pay attention to his friend, but instead laid his head down on the desk, thinking of the day he met Hitomi at the park and how lucky he felt that day.

He said it’s his lucky day, that fact is clear in his mind. Her black gothic Lolita dress is not the kind of cheap item you will find in the mall (although those so-called cheap items are not so cheap for him). Hitomi’s age, temperament, and the way she talks are still a little shocking for Yu. In his own mind, Yu is quite sure that Hitomi and he don’t live to the same circles. He fully expects that soon he will wake one day to find Hitomi gone and never see her again. He’s willing to fight for her. He wants Hitomi, who is so import to him, to stay with him. He wants her to give him her affection.

Although, just how is he supposed to accomplish that?

While pondering all of this, the English class ended, but Yu is still confused and bewildered.

“Hitomi, what made you think of doing live broadcasts on B channel? Normally, a girl your age would never think of it, much less do it.”

Ling said as she leaned on the couch and then moved a little. To tell the truth, Hitomi being on her has made produced some physical discomfort, that being fatigue, lower back pain, and producing a fast heart rate.

Ling really isn’t a girl, even though he looks very cute and sexy, but he is a boy. From the beginning, he didn’t want to lie to Hitomi so she would be more affectionate, but him telling her he really was a boy was counter-productive. Hitomi refused to believe he was a boy and seemed even more adamant that he was, in fact, a girl.

“Well, it’s just that my allowance isn’t enough, so I wanted to make some money myself.”

Hitomi said hugging Ling’s waist, her eyes narrowed in pleasure. She then wrinkled her eyebrows slightly. Hmm… this stomach is so firm. After hugging Ling for a while, Hitomi finally spoke.

“Ling, are you really a boy?”

Hitomi asked, her voice quavering slightly. Thinking Ling’s hands were bigger, had more strength, and body was more firm.

“Well, I said as much from the start. I’m a boy, is that a problem?”

Ling replied. He was still reclining on the couch, yet her question obviously has shaken him up, possibly even a little afraid. He was completely passive, as if Hitomi were a knife and he were a fish waiting be filleted.

“Oh…”

Hitomi said softly, while taking her arms from around his waist, wrapping them around his neck, and leaning her head against his shoulder. While she did this, Ling was frightened, afraid Hitomi was going to do something drastic. Truth told, his thoughts meant nothing to Hitomi.

Resting her head against his shoulder, she said nothing. Did you think I would run way? How could that be? My ultimate goal is to have someone pay attention to me, to be loved and finally, to be intimate with a someone who will be gentle with me. If you were a girl, I was taking advantage of you. If you are a boy, I’m still taking advantage of you. I don’t believe you are going to force me to do something perverted anyway.

Speaking of perverts, that weird Lolicon should be returning soon. It’s been quite a while after all. Could he have ran into a problem?
