Chapter 112 Xiao Lan firmly protects Lu Qingxi
The two classes in the morning finally ended. Lu Qingxi's mind was like a fertile soil irrigated by new knowledge, full of vitality and energy. She sat quietly in her seat, holding the book tightly in her hands, staring at the knowledge she had just absorbed, as if she was savoring the sweetness of it.
The bell for the end of get out of class rang melodiously, like the early summer breeze gently blowing through the heart, bringing a moment of tranquility and relaxation. However, Lu Qingxi seemed to be still immersed in the ocean of knowledge and did not get up immediately. She gently flipped the pages of the book in her hand, as if looking for some missing knowledge point, or wanting to understand a concept more deeply.
Jimo Zhuo sat next to her. He noticed that Lu Qingxi was still concentrating on reading a book, and thought that she was waiting for Xiao Lan to come and have lunch with her. So he quietly got up and left the classroom without disturbing Lu Qingxi.
Not long after, a familiar figure appeared at the door of the classroom - Xiao Lan. She was smiling, but there was a hint of chill in her eyes. She walked to Lu Qingxi's seat and said softly, "Qingqing, let's go eat."
Lu Qingxi finally came back to her senses. She looked up at Xiao Lan and responded calmly, "Okay." Then she closed the book in her hand and pulled her thoughts back to reality from the ocean of knowledge.
Xiao Lan's ears flushed slightly when she heard Lu Qingxi's indifferent response. She blinked quickly, trying to calm down the strange emotions in her heart. Her body instinctively drove her to reach out and gently hold Lu Qingxi's arm. The two walked side by side towards the cafeteria.
When they got closer, the faint orchid fragrance emanating from Lu Qingxi entered Xiao Lan's nose. The elegant and fresh fragrance made Xiao Lan move closer. They walked through the sparse crowds on campus and came to a seven-story building. This building was majestic, like a towering castle, standing in a corner of the campus.
There are two silver-white elevators in front of the building, standing there quietly, as if waiting for people to arrive. Next to them is a winding staircase, each step looks so solid and powerful.
Xiao Lan pulled Lu Qingxi towards the first elevator on the right. In front of the elevator stood a waiter in black uniform. When he saw Xiao Lan, he immediately bowed respectfully and greeted her, "Hello, Miss Xiao." His voice was low and powerful, revealing an unquestionable respect. Then, he turned to Lu Qingxi and Xiao Lan and asked, "Which floor do you want to go to for dinner today?"
Xiao Lan turned to look at Lu Qingxi, with a hint of complexity in her eyes: "Qingqing should choose." Lu Qingxi was slightly stunned. She really didn't know anything about the characteristics of each floor of this building. She just followed her usual thinking and thought that the higher she went, the more noble and privileged she would be. So, after a brief thought, she answered softly: "Seventh floor." Upon hearing this, the attendant immediately reached out and pressed the seventh floor button on the elevator.
Xiao Lan couldn't help but feel a little puzzled when she heard Lu Qingxi's choice. She remembered that Lu Qingxi mentioned that she had an allergy on her face in the morning, so why did she choose Japanese food, which is very likely to contain allergens. She instinctively wanted to ask, but when her eyes met Lu Qingxi's clear and bright eyes, she suddenly lost her words. Her sight seemed to be deeply attracted by those eyes, and she completely forgot what she wanted to ask just now.
She turned her head, and Lu Qingxi's eyes were still echoing in her mind. Those eyes seemed to have magic, making her completely immersed in them. She held Lu Qingxi's hand tightly and walked into the elevator together.
The elevator continued to climb upwards, and Lu Qingxi could feel Xiao Lan's arms tightening around hers. She turned her arms uncomfortably, and Xiao Lan loosened her grip a little as if she had just woken up from a dream. When the elevator door finally opened, the moment Lu Qingxi stepped out of the elevator, a faint regret surged into her heart.
In order to avoid showing her face, she lied that she had facial allergies in the morning. However, at this moment, she was standing in front of the Japanese restaurant on the seventh floor. The scene in front of her made her both surprised and disappointed. The interior decoration of the restaurant was exquisite, and every detail revealed elegance and taste. The dazzling array of fresh ingredients - king crab, sweet shrimp, salmon, bluefin tuna... shone with an attractive luster under the light.
Although Lu Qingxi was a little disappointed that she couldn't eat her favorite fresh food, she still ordered Kobe Wagyu rice, grilled silver cod, matsutake soup, matcha milk jelly and other small desserts. When these delicacies appeared in front of her one by one, she temporarily forgot her previous disappointment, took off her mask, and began to savor them carefully. It must be said that the deliciousness presented by the top-grade ingredients was really intoxicating, and every bite seemed to stimulate her taste buds.
Xiao Lan, who was sitting opposite her, had already fallen deeply into a fascination with Lu Qingxi's beauty. She stared at Lu Qingxi's appearance after she took off her mask. Her straight nose, bright red lips, and snow-white and delicate skin all made Xiao Lan feel amazed.
She couldn't hold back the impulse in her heart, and she gently reached out and touched Lu Qingxi's cheek twice. Then, she saw Lu Qingxi looked up at her in surprise, and the eyes hidden behind the thick bangs and black-framed glasses were flashing with doubt.
Xiao Lan was filled with excitement. She held Lu Qingxi's face in her hands and said firmly, "Qingqing, I will definitely protect you!" She swore silently in her heart that she would never let Lu Qingxi come to any harm, especially from that scumbag Qin Fangkai and that bastard Zhai Xingchen.
However, when she came back to her senses and saw the puzzled expression on Lu Qingxi's face, she suddenly realized that she might have said something a little abrupt. She didn't want this beautiful woman to worry about her affairs, so she took a deep breath and took back what she was about to say.
Xiao Lan's heart was filled with mixed emotions. She thought that Lu Qingxi seemed to like her current boyfriend very much, but she was not sure when Lu Qingxi was deceived by that scumbag. She could only adapt to the situation and keep an eye on Lu Qingxi's movements to ensure that she would not be hurt.
Lu Qingxi looked at the strange behavior of the girl opposite her, feeling somewhat puzzled. She remembered that she had just taken off her mask, so she gave her a sincere smile, trying to ease the atmosphere.
"Then let's protect each other." Lu Qingxi said softly, his tone full of sincerity and warmth.
When Xiao Lan heard this, her heart skipped a beat, as if a warm current had flowed through her. She felt that every word the woman opposite her said came from her heart, not just perfunctory words. This made her feel inexplicably moved and relieved.
Tears welled up unconsciously in the corners of her eyes, but Xiao Lan quickly looked up and blinked them away. She didn't want Lu Qingxi to see her vulnerability, nor did she want to think about why the girl had changed so much, and she didn't want this beautiful moment to be broken. She only knew that she would protect her from now on!
