Chapter 212: Biting instead

Chapter 212: Biting instead

Wearing the hospital gown made it hard for Ye Meixiu to look at him with a calm expression. She assures him, "Don't worry, brother Chen. I will stay by your side forever now. I won't let you out of my sight."

Staying by his side would be the best thing in two ways; protecting him and because she always wanted to. After what happened, not being by his side would be a death wish.

Even though she has somewhat good intentions, Lu Chen's brows knitted as he says, "What could you do against people like those?" It would definitely cause more harm than good. If Ye Meixiu stays around him a lot, Lu Chen knows she would definitely be caught up in things that she doesn't need to be in.

Ergo, the case with Feng Meifeng.

"I can bite them to death!" When Lu Chen heard that, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

'Bite them? Are your teeth even strong enough to break their skin? And would those people even let you take a bite at them?'

Well, some people are like that, but let's not talk about those. Thinking about Ye Meixiu's idea, Lu Chen thought it was a joke at first.

But from her serious expression, Lu Chen realizes the girl is serious.

Lu Chen pinches her cheeks, "Dummy, you don't need to bite them. What are you? A dog?" Going into full parent mode, Lu Chen continues to nag at her,

"And don't even think about fighting them. I don't want you to get into my problems. You should be focusing on class, not picking fights.

And if Ye Meixiu gets into fights, chances are, she's going to be taken advantage of.

Ye Meixiu thought about it and changed her answer, "Then I will scratch them to death." If she can't bite them, the next best thing is to scratch them to death.

Before Lu Chen could retort to that, he just had an epiphany. His brows raise higher as he asks, "Wait, shouldn't you be at school? Why are you here?" Right now, the time at school would be in the middle of second period.

"I came here straight away the moment I heard you were sent to the hospital!" Ye Meixiu said it proudly like there was nothing wrong with that.

She had gone to check up on Lu Chen, trying to invite him to lunch again. And when he wasn't there, Zhang Jian told her that he was in the hospital.

Contrary to expecting to be praised, Lu Chen starts to nag at her, leading to an argument. It lasted for a whole hour.

..

'Thank goodness I got her to agree to what I said.' The two came to a consensus; Ye Meixiu will only be able to go to the hospital after school. And Lu Chen will text here about what occurred for him today.

"Hey! Are you listening to what I'm saying?" Feng Meifeng looks up to see Lu Chen zoning out, and she could help but glare.

"Oh, my bad." Lu Chen apologizes instinctively.

'Wait a minute.' His expression changes as he asks, "What are we talking about again?" The man zoned out so hard that he forgot what Feng Meifeng was teaching him.

"..." 'Are you serious?' Feng Meifeng got a little angry as she said, "Why did I come here to teach you if you aren't going to listen?"

"Yeah, why did you come here?" Taking it literally, Lu Chen had that question on his mind for a while now. He didn't understand why Feng Meifeng would come here at lunch.

'Shouldn't she be eating lunch with her friends or something?'

Hearing his sudden question, Feng Meifeng became flustered as she said quickly, "I'm your class monitor. I must make sure all the students are up to date with the class materials."

But Lu Chen wasn't buying. "You use that excuse too many times." The number of times Feng Meifeng has used this excuse was more than he could remember.

'Shouldn't there be boundaries to how much a class monitor could go?' It takes a good while to get to the hospital by walking. And just teaching him about it was a little too much. He was the only one that got special treatment from her.

Before Lu Chen could call her out about this, Elder Wu walks into the room.
