Dragon's Raja Chapter 5

“Suspicious, isn't it? Your parents did not go home for 6 years, recommend you to go to an American college suddenly, your GPA is just average… No, it was terrible, but the college awarded you a big scholars.h.i.+p. You talked nonsense during the interview, but the interviewer said you answered it too well. Compared with these, I know who you secretly love is really nothing."

“Yeah, only Aunt and Uncle don't doubt it. They think my parents can do anything. They've been asking me all the way how to get my brother there.”

“Please me! Please me then I'll tell you, like… What was Chen Wenwen thinking…" Again the evil nature of the little witch stirred.

“You know?"

“Women's intuition tells me…”

“What?"

“She doesn't like you.”

"p.i.s.s off!"

Lu Mingfei didn't believe it. He remembered that afternoon, there were only two people in the cla.s.sroom, Chen Wenwen and him. He was cleaning the blackboard. Chen Wenwen was wearing a white cotton dress, sneakers and white socks. Outside the window, the Boston ivy hanging down. It was an evening between the spring and summer, especially quiet. Chen Wenwen suddenly turned her head and asked Lu Mingfei, do you want to join our literary club?

Lu Mingfei feels as if he had petrified, his heart is bouncing. The flowers and plants outside the window grow madly, the setting sun falls. As if cicadas' chirp accelerates a hundred times, time slips away from his fingers, and the gaze between them is eternal.

“Just kidding. Here, I'll give you some advice. Have you sent any flowers?” Nuo Nuo asked.

“Does foxtail gra.s.s count?” Lu Mingfei turned excited and began to talk nonsense.

“Have you ever seen a movie?

"Sparking Red Star. I was sitting next to her at the school's revolutionary education show.”

“Her birthday?

“October 10th.”

“Any birthday present?

“She took my pen and wrote back to the boy who sent her the card. She didn't give it back to me. The next day she said it was a gift… “

“Can you be any less promising?

“I don't think so either.”

“You're a disgrace to Ca.s.sel College!” Nuo Nuo yelled in an angry tone, “Come on, sister will educate you. First of all, all girls are to be chased! You do not take the initiative, but think about the initiative of girls? Secondly, for girls, the most important thing is nothing but happiness. Have you tried to give Chen Wenwen happiness?"

“Happiness?" Lu Mingfei stunned.

“For example, suppose, just suppose, Chen Wenwen likes you very much, but you have no feelings for her. But one day you failed the exam, depressed. Suddenly you see Chen Wenwen driving a Ferrari to pick you up in public. She touches your hair said, don't worry, you can handle this next time. Do you feel like you're bursting with happiness? Even if you don't have feelings for her, will you immediately follow her?”

“Right now! Never hesitate! Give me a dog rope and ran with her!” Lu Mingfei answered firmly.

“Worthless! This seems too cheap, you need to twist a few more to show your position!”

“Senior sister… What shall I do?" Lu Mingfei had great sincerity on his senior.

“Just do it! Tell everyone you like her. Say it out loud. You bet your man's dignity and his future, can you understand girls? No girl will really hate a boy who is honest and bold enough to express his feelings to her. Even if she doesn't accept it, she will remember you.

“What if she doesn't?"

“Fly to America with your splendid memories of lost love.”

“Sounds so sad… “

“It's not easy to love someone, you have to kill a blood road from ten thousand armies! Be the last Zergling, ran through the fire of countless dragoons with the last point of health left to wield a game-changing claw! It could happen if you die on the way, but a dog that doesn't come under fire isn't a good dog!” Nuo Nuo said.

Lu Mingfei was stunned and felt the murderous feeling in her words. He suddenly saw her cold pretty face. The girl likes a steel knife… Now she brandished her knife, a cut in the middle of his heart, blood splattering. At this moment, Lu Mingfei made the boldest decision in 18 years of life, to be the dog rushed to the gunfire. In the last three months before graduation, he will tell Chen Wenwen that he liked her for three years. No matter how weak this last claw, no matter if it can break through the girl's defence line, but he was determined to be a good dog!

“Understood!" He said.

“Remember to give flowers. Oh, if you don't know what she likes, just dark red roses that every girl will like; having background music; the most important thing is to say it in front of everyone, this is your courage!" Nuo Nuo said, “Good luck, young brother!"

"Yes, Ma'am!" Lu Mingfei imagined that a commanding lady is giving orders to him as a p.a.w.n.

“But… When you succeed, the path of Ca.s.sel College will be closed to you forever!”

After this sentence, Nuo Nuo directly went offline and left no chance for Lu Mingfei to answer.

Lu Mingfei looked up and breathed a long sigh of relief. He was eager to have a try, thinking that if this bold declaration succeeds, it is nothing for not going to the United States. It's just he shall never see Nuo Nuo again, a little regret. Lu Mingfei felt that he would miss Nuo Nuo. Before her, there had never been a girl entering his world so fiercely, not even Chen Wenwen.

He looked at the gray and motionless cat face icon on the screen and suddenly felt that it was magic. At the moment of his successful confession, Ca.s.sel college, Professor Guderian and Nuo Nuo would disappear from the world like bubbles.

In a suite of the Regent Hotel, Nuo Nuo was sipping coffee lightly.

Her QQ was not turned off on her apple laptop screen but just turned to stealth mode. Lu Mingfei's last message came, which was simply “Thank you”.

In another dialogue window, the person whose ID is "Sonic" said, “What are you doing? Teach him how to show his love to a girl? If the ‘S' level gave up the gate of Ca.s.sel for love, the principle would go mad!"

“Are you funny? I was only teasing him." Nuo Nuo wrinkled her delicate nose and smiled coldly. “How could such an expression be successful? Chen Wenwen is the kind of girl who is very artistic. If she likes something, she will accept it. If she doesn't like it, no matter how much you give her, she won't pay attention to it. Music, roses and saying I love you loudly? Just kidding!”

“Can you be more immoral?"

“No,” she shrugged. “I have to admit this is the most immoral thing I've ever done.”

“Why bully a freshman?"

“Freshman? He's an "S" level! You and I are only ‘A' level. If we do not take the opportunity to bully him, there'll be no chance when he enters the college." Nuo Nuo said.

“Hope nothing's wrong. What if Chen Wenwen was as stuffy Lu Mingfei and liked Lu Mingfei for three years but do not want to say to him, you'll just mess up everything.”

Nuo Nuo sticking her tongue out. “Won't it be so bad?”

“The Student Union needs people like this, the only ‘S' level, who must never fall into the hands of the Lionheart!” Said "Sonic".

“Nuo Nuo." Ye Sheng pushed the door from outside to poke his head in. “Professor Guderian asked you to come and discuss something together.”

“Oh.” Nuo Nuo put on her cotton slippers and trotted out with her coffee cup.

Outside, Professor Guderian, Ye Sheng and Aki sat around a coffee table with dignified expressions. There was a printed doc.u.ment freshly.

“Nuo Nuo, I have a mission. The thing here could only depend on you,” Professor Guderian said, picking up the doc.u.ment. “the college has just faxed a resume of a Russian candidate who seems to have a fairly good lineage. I have to fly to Russia right now, and Lu Mingfei is in your hand."

“Me?” Nuo Nuo stunned, "What about Ye Sheng and Aki?”

“The 'Kui Men Project' is running ahead of schedule. The princ.i.p.al is about to visit China and Professor Maans told us to sign up to Sichuan Province immediately.” Ye Sheng said, “Aki and I need a little more time to do cooperative training.”

“Are you in such a hurry? Nuo Nuo puckered up her mouth. At this time, she was still like a child.

“When you're about to perform a task, you will realize that you can't wait for an hour or a minute,” Ye said and patted Nuo Nuo's shoulder. “Sometimes missing a point of time is like missing a lifetime.”

“You should say this to Aki and say that's why I asked you to marry me.” Nuo Nuo said.

Aki blushed with shame.

“Well, how to deal with Lu Mingfei then?” Nuo Nuo looked at Professor Guderian.

Professor Guderian scratched his head. "My personal idea is… Even if you kidnap him, you have to bring him to America!”

Lu Mingfei thought that Nuo Nuo is an angel who can bring good luck. Shortly after Nuo Nuo was taken offline, Chen Wenwen suddenly spoke in the group, and those invisible guys have jumped out around the Muse to beep, one by one with their flying literary talent, not like suffering the nightmare of the final exam at all.

"What about having a party before graduation?” Chen Wenwen proposed.

A group of people cheered, and Lu Mingfei was mixed in the middle. Chen Wenwen's proposal won't be opposed to the literature club. Zhao Menghua joked that Chen Wenwen is like Liu Bei 1) of the literature club, because she is absolutely attractive to men.

“Party? Not interested, I'm losing weight recently.” Su Xiaoqiang said coldly.

n.o.body expected Su Xiaoqiang to condescend to join the literary club. The President of the tennis club and billiards club were both admirers of Su Xiaoqiang and invited her, but Su Xiaoqiang didn't pay attention to any of them and joined the rival literary club. The object of Su Xiaoqiang was not Chen Wenwen but Zhao Menghua. The “Little Fairy” was explicit and blatant. When she paid for every girls' pizza, she suddenly stood up, holding a gla.s.s of beer said, I paid everyone's bill is to say that I like Zhao Menghua. If you like him too just come, no matter how many people!

Commanding!

“If you don't like the party, we can book a cinema hall to see a movie.” Chen Wenwen said.

Lu Mingfei suddenly moved, Nuo Nuo's words emerged beside his ear. A small cinema hall? Oh, G.o.d, isn't that for me? That sounds like a great place for his confession!

“What movie?" Someone asked.

“General Mobilization of Robot 2).” Chen Wenwen said.

“Wall-E? Good! Let's bring some food in." Zhao Menghua, the English fanatic, never watches Chinese movies and speaks only English names for blockbusters.

“I'll get popcorn and c.o.ke, and I don't care about the rest!” “Little Fairy” exclaimed proudly.

“Then we are a perfect match. I'll get to eat popcorn and drink c.o.ke.” Lu Mingfei can't help to say garbage words again.

“Puff! Who is matchable for you?" “Little Fairy” expressed two hundred percent of disdain.

Everyone was full of gossip and high spirits. Before graduation, the club arranged to watch a love cartoon. It sounds like a great memory.

It's a love cartoon! The key is to have love! There seem to be flowers grow out of Lu Mingfei's heart.

Like somehow allusion, Chen Wenwen chose Wall-E. The main character of that movie is a little dusty robot Wall-E. He is a garbage collector and falls in love with EVE, a robot girl as white as a little princess. Lu Mingfei was embarra.s.sed to say that he was actually moved to tears when he saw the last scene, in which Wall-E was crushed into a pile of sc.r.a.p iron by the evil captain robot. EVE rushed to find parts to save him and broke through the sound barrier with Wall-E in her arms.

That is probably loving, even the small robot picking up garbage deserve to have love! Lu Mingfei felt super touching.

“Lu Mingfei will go to buy a ticket with me, everyone else shall give the money to Lu Mingfei.” Chen Wenwen said.

People agreed, Lu Mingfei's main task in the club is to go to collect money and running errands, which's quite familiar for him.

But this time Chen Wenwen said she would go with him.

It's the same road. But if you walk with some people, it will be too short to take steps. For the other, it will be too long to walk.

Lu Mingfei and Chen Wenwen walked along the cobblestone road along the river. Every day after school he will walk the road, but he suddenly found that this road is really short and abhorrent. Why the government doesn't spend more money and make the pedestrian street fifty kilometres long?

“Which school do you want to apply to?” Chen Wenwen asked.

They had just gone to the cinema to book a room, and then he accompanied Chen Wenwen to buy a bag of bluebells. Lu Mingfei looked at the price of roses by the way, it seems that it is not expensive, and he can buy ninety-nine roses with his pocket money. Now Chen Wenwen carrying a bag of bluebells and walking home with him, and Lu Mingfei knew for the first time that Chen Wenwen's home is not far from his home. Chen Wenwen was wearing the white cotton dress she had worn when she was in school. It smells good.

“Whatever, as long as I can pa.s.s.” Said Lu Mingfei. He was embarra.s.sed to say that the Ca.s.sel College said he had pa.s.sed the interview.

“Will you report local school?"

Lu Mingfei t.i.ttered, thinking that Chen Wenwen was quietly asking him where he would go after the exam. Hum!

“Anywhere, as long as the school has many cla.s.smates right now.”

Chen Wenwen smiled silently and said “yep” in a low voice.

Two people were walking quietly heads down. Lu Mingfei was counting steps happily, he felt between him and Chen Wenwen there's subtle tacit understanding.

“Well, why do you look so shy?” Someone asked darkly.

Lu Mingfei was startled to look up, the girl opposite him pulled down the huge sungla.s.ses on her face and rolled over eyes. She put her hands to make a megaceros' style and yelled to Lu Mingfei loudly, “Hey! Hey!”

Lu Mingfei knew why Nuo Nuo has the feeling of intimacy like an acquaintance. She purely wanted to show to Chen Wenwen. He had learned the rules of the little witch.

“Your friend?" Chen Wenwen is embarra.s.sed slightly, felt pressure under the atmosphere of the little princess Nuo Nuo.

“Uh-huh.” Lu Mingfei muttered.

“Hey! What a coincidence!” Nuo Nuo jumped in front of Chen Wenwen,” This is Chen Wenwen, right?

“How do you know my name?" Chen Wenwen was surprised.

“He said it… “Nuo Nuo suddenly stopped and stared at Lu Mingfei.” By the way, do you still owe me an ice cream?”

Blackmail! This is plain blackmail!

But as long as Nuo Nuo doesn't talk nonsense at the moment, he could do anything.

Lu Mingfei quickly paid, “What flavour do you want?”

“Vanilla with strawberry jam.” Nuo Nuo took off her baseball cap and combed her long dark red hair.

Lu Mingfei could only pay for them. The three of them were walking along the river with ice cream. Flos Sephora flowers fell on Chen Wenwen's white skirt and Nuo Nuo's baseball cap. Lu Mingfei quietly followed behind the two girls, because Nuo Nuo appeared to steal his thunder, now he has nothing to do.

“Did Lu Mingfei say a lot of bad things about me?” Chen Wenwen asked.

“No, he said he liked literature very much, so he joined the literature club.”

“Oh, you are his junior high school cla.s.smate?”

“Elementary school, I have been studying in the United States and came back recently.” Nuo Nuo turned to Lu Mingfei. “Do you remember the cirrus on the wall of our school? That day I go back to see and it had climbed to the roof!”

Lu Mingfei nodded his head, thinking that the ice cream was worth it. Nuo Nuo is an honest businessman, she described the scene comes to life.

“Are you an immigrant? “Chen Wenwen asked.

“No, I have a Chinese pa.s.sport. I'm just going to school. I'm a soph.o.m.ore this year.”

“Did you skip the cla.s.s? Lu Mingfei is only in grade 12.”

“Oh, we are at different grade, I am his senior sister.” Nuo Nuo made her lie fast. She seems to be a professional liar, “Right, Lu Mingfei?”

“Yes! Senior sister!” Lu Mingfei said seriously.

Nuo Nuo laughed like a flower.

They finally got separate at the fork in the road. Lu Mingfei and Chen Wenwen continued to walk, and Nuo Nuo went to the other side. Lu Mingfei looked at the figure of Nuo Nuo skipping away, felt that the girl is a little unreal and left him feeling that will disappear at any time.

In these two days, Lu Mingze was very unhappy because the “Sunset Mark” is not always online, which let him became extremely anxious. So he occupied the notebook more time, let Lu Mingfei had no chance to use it. Lu Mingfei knew that he admired his lucky dog cousin and he wanted to talk to someone. Lu Mingfei also wanted to listen to him… He just doesn't have time to sneak into the internet bar.

Aunt was chanting that Lu Mingze cannot play computer instead to study and let Lu Mingfei buy tomorrow's milk as usual. Lu Mingfei went out and heard Lu Mingze suddenly got impatient somehow and fought with Aunt.

He did not go upstairs but walked up to the top floor. On top of it is the roof with purring air conditioning. The stairway to the roof feels like a horror movie, there are cardboard boxes, two broken motors and discarded sofas and wooden tea tables, all dusty and the s.p.a.ce between them are too small to let people stand. An iron gate at the end of it that said: “Roof closed.” Lu Mingfei stepped on the garbage skillfully like a light kangaroo, and he saw after the inch shadow of the iron gate, there were thousands of stars.

Lu Mingfei went out through the gap between the iron gate and stood in the starlight. He took a deep breath and looked at the city under the night sky.

This is his secret manor. Here, he is free to enjoy the different smells of wind, sky, spring and autumn coming to the city. Sometimes it is flos sophorae, sometimes it is leaves, sometimes it is the sweet smell of pineapple selling in the street below.

He sat on the edge of the roof as if facing a precipice. He felt dangerous and light, like a bird that flies very high depends on the wind.

The city lights kept on and hard skyline had sunk down in the lamplight. Skysc.r.a.pers in the business district looked like square cages made by light. Far from the roof, there was a wide lake. Beside it, the surge of cars was on the highway and lights merged into a stream of light. Lu Mingfei felt like each point in the flow of light is a live firefly. They are trapped in the curved, slender in the highway so they can only run hard forward to look for export.
