Chapter 321, About Getting Angry
"Wow! Our winter vacation is finally here!!!"
"Then we can officially enter the academic year of preparing for exams."
On December 12, after the closing ceremony and class meeting to notify matters of importance, the students of the central university finally welcomed the last holiday before the third year of high school. In the classroom, when He Jian left, they were happily chatting about the arrangements for the winter vacation.
The moment the class meeting ended, Ren's expression became one of 'finally relieved', and Zhuo looked at him like that and just lightly reminded him of what would happen after the holiday.
"Eh——Don't you think it's abominable to say those things at this time? You, this hellish class should be followed by heaven, but you told everyone that there is an even crueler hell waiting behind..."
"If you don't think about the future, you will have immediate worries. Anyway, it's only a matter of time."
"Nani, Nani? Is this what you should say? According to the past - oh, it's vacation again - it's normal to be so listless!"
“People always have to make progress.”
"If you have a girlfriend, shut up. Zhuo, don't forget that you will have more time to be affectionate with that girl."
"You actually said we were being affectionate... I mean, we're not being affectionate 24 hours a day."
It would be more accurate to say that they just don't talk to each other, and spend most of their time just doing their own things or being in a daze.
When they spent time together in the same space, they often studied together and shared housework (well, although he was only responsible for washing the dishes), but they didn't always spend all their time being affectionate.
For Zero, housework is a big deal. He also has to work part-time to support the Utsunomiya family and often goes out. Even when they are at home, the two of them often stare at the commercials on TV. It would be a big mistake to think that they are always together.
"...Do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand? It's just that the level of love in your mind is too high. In fact, you have been unconsciously emitting aura all the time."
"nonsense."
"I guess you guys make eye contact a lot when you're at home, you hold each other's arms all the time, you hold hands when you walk, and that kind of thing."
Can't deny.
Although Zhuo was restraining himself from being too close to Ling and always wanted to maintain a distance, this distance was actually 0. Trivial physical contact like this did happen frequently. But it was better to say that since the two of them talked it out, Ling became particularly fond of sticking to him. Although nothing could be seen from her face, it was still possible to see from her actions that Ling wanted to stick to him.
Saying this may also be an attempt to shirk responsibility.
Besides, it is difficult to define the so-called lovey-dovey thing. Zhuo does not regard these as lovey-dovey things, but when he is walking or sitting, Ling comes close to him, but it seems that in the eyes of others, he does not think so.
“You see, even you don’t realize it, but in our eyes, just looking at it makes us feel itchy. Right, Kanda?”
"Ahahaha, yeah. I feel shy just looking at it."
"Well, that's a bit too much."
"It is also thanks to that person that those who wanted to hinder you were deterred, so I didn't tell you about this."
Indeed, at least during this period of time, not many boys harassed him, picked on him, or tried to snatch Ling as expected. This was not just talk, whether it was malicious or benign, competition really existed. It was just that Zhuo had no chance to meet them in the past, and now it seemed that he was blocked from meeting them.
The reason for this was largely due to Ling's undisguised love for her, and her completely opposite attitude towards Zhuo and others, which could be said to be heaven and hell. Her eyes were always on Zhuo, so those people seemed to retreat.
Even so, Zhuo was prepared to be complained about, or to be secretly taken away when Ling was not around, but this did not happen. The classmates in the school spontaneously made a watchful atmosphere. To be honest, Zhuo was really surprised and confused.
"Honestly, you should thank that person for the pressure you have for having a good life."
"How to say?"
"You won't forget, right? There was a time when a senior student confessed his love to that girl and was rejected. He couldn't accept it and tried to make a move on her, but was sent to the hospital by Zero. That senior's family was quite powerful, but he later transferred to another school in disgrace. Since then, the school has recognized the fact that the "Queen" is the "True Queen."
"Oh~ this incident~" Zhuo suddenly recalled that incident. It was when he entered high school. At that time, Zhuo was not very familiar with Ling, or even had never spoken to him. But it was not surprising that the cute and beautiful Ling was targeted. To be honest, Zhuo also had some dishonest looks at him at that time, but he just lacked the courage.
Of course, even if he had the courage, he would not do such a thing.
"So, with that precedent in mind, what else can others do? If Zhuo Bei did something, that person would definitely get angry..."
"That's right~~"
In fact, it's more than that. Zhuo thinks that even being sent to the hospital is already a leniency. If it was Ling who was bullied, Zhuo would definitely be furious.
"Come to think of it, you've been together for so long, have you ever seen that guy when he gets angry? I can't imagine it at all."
"Zero gets angry... I haven't seen that either."
——It’s a lie.
Actually, I have seen it before.
But it can't be said that she was angry, but she was upset. When Ling was angry, she didn't make a noise or make a fuss, and she wouldn't make any moves. Instead, she would live in her own world without saying a word and digest it by herself... Zhuo knew that this was related to her past experiences, but now Zhuo hoped that she could share with him, and they could bear any emotion together.
Having said that, Zhuo probably wouldn't deliberately make her angry. Zhuo also knew that making her angry would definitely be very bad.
In other words, if you do something that makes Zero unhappy, he will feel sad before he gets angry.
Zhuo made up his mind to try his best not to make her angry and let her always maintain inner peace.
"…Why did you make me angry?"
"Zhuozhuozhuozhuo, why do you keep saying what's on your mind?!"
"Well--"
When Zhuo was swearing in his heart, Ling had somehow come to his side.
"Romanov, we were discussing what we could do to make you angry and avoid this from happening..."
stare--
(Zero stared at Kiritani Jin quietly for two seconds, then turned his gaze to the stunned Zhuo.)
By the way, looking at Zero's calm expression, Ren's body trembled slightly.
"Zhuo, you can't make Romanov angry~"
"Ah? Oh! That's for sure. Why don't you just tell me what I can do to make her angry?"
"...Flirtatious?"
"How is that possible!"
"That's right. With Zhuo's personality, this is totally impossible. Zhuo is the kind of person who will give himself completely once he opens his heart."
"…Am I a virgin?" (dead fish eyes)
"Isn't it?"
"no!!!"
"So where have we gotten to now... Ah, Mr. Romanov, can I ask this?"
Zero nodded calmly. Then, feeling betrayed, Zhuo turned around and complained loudly to her, "Zero!" Even Kanda, who was watching from the side, laughed out loud.
