180: We’re All Bros

We’re All Bros

The international class is as lively as ever. 2

Shen Xi arrived at the door. 

Song Wenye greeted her with concern. "Xixi, are you alright? Are you feeling well?" 

Xixi took time off yesterday and was absent from class. They were worried sick to find out from the teacher that she was ill.

Song Wenye was thinking of buying some supplements and visiting her place if Shen Xi had not shown up today. 

"I'm alright. All's good." Shen Xi looked at her. "I heard that yesterday, you went to Yu…" 

At that moment, Song Wenye was extending her hand to Shen Xi's forehead but immediately covered Shen Xi's mouth instead as she could guess what Shen Xi was about to say. Song Wenye swiftly put her arm on Shen Xi's shoulders and walked to her seat while shouting, "It's great that you're feeling okay now. Xixi's all better now, so just carry on your business as usual."

The classmates who gathered around were easily diverted. Since Shen Xi seemed fine at a closer look, they returned to their seats. 

Song Wenye was on her way to a bar last night when she ran into an elderly who was mugged by a motorcyclist. The old lady's belongings were intact but she was bruised.

As a responsible young citizen from a reputable family, she felt obligated to play her part in society by taking the elderly to a clinic for treatment. Sympathizing with the poor old lady as she was alone, Song Wenye then sent her home. 

It never crossed her mind that the old lady was Yu Yuanxi's grandmother, who also insisted that she stayed for dinner. 

Song Wenye was too polite to refuse an old lady's request, so she stayed for the meal.

"Oh!" Shen Xi faintly responded. "I only meant to ask if Granny Yu was okay." 

"She's fine." Song Wenye cleared her throat while ruminating why she acted as if she had something to hide. It was after all a good deed!

The conversation trailed off.

Pei Xu walked in and let the cats out of the bag. "Song Wenye, did you go to Yu Yuanxi's place yesterday?" 

Song Wenye was taken by surprise and he furiously pointed at him, "Do I have to report to you my whereabouts? Pei Xu, you're such a nag!"

Those words escaped her before she knew it. 

The onlookers in the classroom were waiting with popcorn at the ready. 

Song Wenye went to Yu Yuanxi's house? What was the story? Something must have happened!

"I'm just asking how Granny Yu is doing now. Why are you getting so worked up for?" Pei Xu was startled by Song Wenye. This girl needed to take a chill pill. "I want to visit her if it's bad." 

Song Wenye realized that she overreacted. Yet, she managed to question Pei Xu confidently. "When did you become close to Yu Yuanxi?" 

"Yu Yuanxi and I are bros." Pei Xu walked over with a smile. "Thanks for your help with Granny Yu yesterday." 

Song Wenye raised her voice. "You don't have to thank me. We're all bros. Yu Yuanxi and I are bros too. A bro's problem is my problem. A bro's grandmother is my grandmother." 

Shen Xi glanced at Song Wenye and had the feeling that Song Wenye was trying to cover up something. The latter would get fired up again at the mention of Yu Yuanxi. 

Pei Xu declared that anyone against Su Mushi was his bro too. 

Shen Xi narrowed his eyes and looked at Pei Xu, "Yu Qiubai too?" 

Pei Xu threw away the half-eaten bread in his hands. "Why do you have to bring up that b*stard?" 

F*ck!

He lost his appetite! 

Pei Xu could not hold back.

"Shen Xi, Pei Xu." Standing by the classroom door, Yu Qiubai looked at them with his smiling eyes. "Ms. Xu wants to see you both" 

Pei Xu spat in annoyance. With one hand as support, he leaped over the table and blasély turned to look at Shen Xi as he landed. "I have something to do. You go and meet the teacher!" 

Shen Xi was speechless.

Yu Qiubai stopped Pei Xu in his tracks and raised his eyebrows slightly. "Skipping class?" 

Pei Xu replied, "Get lost!" 

It was none of his business!
