Chapter 34 Are you really stupid or just pretending?

"Li...Li Xuemei!"

Li Xuemei looked at Ma Junjie with a smile in her eyes, then instantly turned angry and scolded him.

"Brother Jie, how could you be so silly!"

"With the sun so bright, why didn't you try to hide from it? Ugh, I really don't know what to say to you!"

Ma Junjie laughed,

"Li Xuemei, I'm afraid if I hide, you won't be able to see me anymore."

"Brother Jie, you, you... sigh!"

Ma Junjie grinned and said...

"Li Xuemei, what brings you here? I thought you were already taking your lunch break and weren't coming."

Li Xuemei snorted, pulled Ma Junjie to a tree, and said,

"I took a lunch break..."

"I overheard people in the dorm talking about some idiot outside, holding a piece of clothing, standing motionless in the scorching sun!"

"I thought to myself, 'Oh no, it can't be you, can it?'"

"Out of curiosity, I went out to take a look, and sure enough... sigh!"

"Hehehe!" Ma Junjie burst into laughter.

"Oh, I see. No wonder so many people were pointing fingers at me, but I didn't take it seriously."

Li Xuemei watched as Ma Junjie kept shaking his head.

"Brother Jie, are you really that naive or just pretending? You're way too honest!"

Ma Junjie smiled and said,

"Li Xuemei, I apologize. I forgot about something yesterday and broke our promise. I was determined to see you today."

"Li Xuemei, here, my clothes!"

Li Xuemei glanced at Ma Junjie.

Then he took his clothes and said playfully.

"Brother Jie, actually, I had something to do yesterday and forgot I couldn't come!"

"Huh?!" Ma Junjie's eyes widened upon hearing this.

Li Xuemei quickly stepped aside and said...

"Hehe, you're not going to hit me, are you?"

Ma Junjie laughed and waved his hand.

"Fine, whether you come or not, it's my fault for breaking our promise. It's my fault, it's my fault."

Li Xuemei stared wide-eyed at Ma Junjie, her expression a mixture of amusement and anger.

Finally, he shook his head.

He shoved the umbrella from his hand into Ma Junjie's hand.

"Hmph, I'm not talking to you anymore! Talking to you just makes me so angry!"

"Here you go, I'm leaving!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Ma Junjie shouted from behind.

"Li Xuemei, when are we going to meet again?"

Li Xuemei turned around, looked at the clothes in her hand, thought for a moment, and said...

"Tomorrow, tomorrow night at 8 pm!"

"It's too hot during the day, I'm afraid you'll get heatstroke!"

"Okay!" Ma Junjie replied, then saw Li Xuemei turn around and run into the girls' dormitory building like a rabbit.

Ma Junjie also turned around and went back to his dormitory.

When I got back to the dorm, my roommates were still playing on their phones and listening to music.

Ma Junjie was surprised.

He had never seen them sleep in all this time.

Whenever they have free time, I see them playing on their phones.

He returned to his bed and sat down.

His clothes were soaked with sweat, so he took them off and went to the bathroom to take a cold shower.

Walking out again felt much better.

After getting dressed, I sat on the bed.

At this moment, Wang Hu walked over.

Contrary to his usual behavior, he handed Ma Junjie a piece of watermelon.

"Ah Jie, I just bought some chilled watermelon, here's a slice!"

Ma Junjie glanced at it but didn't take it.

He knew Wang Hu's character well: "Those who offer unsolicited favors are either up to no good or are thieves!"

He said, "Wang Hu, you eat it yourself, I don't want it!"

"Just tell me, what is it?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Hu burst into laughter.

"Ah Jie, what kind of person do you think I am?"

"I just saw you were hot, so I bought an extra slice of watermelon. Here, have a slice! Don't overthink it!"

Ma Junjie stared at Wang Hu, hesitated for a few seconds, and then took the watermelon.

"Fine, you took my apple last time, so it's only right that I eat your watermelon this time."

Upon hearing this, Wang Hu's face darkened instantly, and he gave a bitter smile.

After a while, Wang Hu said with a grin,

"Hey Jie, can I ask you something?"

Ma Junjie was eating watermelon when he heard Wang Hu's words and immediately stopped.

Looking at Wang Hu, he asked,

"Wang Hu, let me make this clear first: I won't lend you money, and I won't invite you to meals. If that's the case, then don't say anything more."

"Ouch!" Wang Hu exclaimed again.

"Ah Jie, when have I ever been that kind of person?"

"Ah Jie, I'm just curious, I wanted to ask you, how do you know Assistant Liu? What's your relationship with her?"

As soon as the question was asked,

Ma Junjie probably understood something.

At the same time, the other people in the dormitory also stopped what they were doing and stared at Ma Junjie.

The chubby boy in the next bed also tossed aside the magazine he was holding, his round eyes fixed on Ma Junjie.

Said,

"Brother Jie, word has already spread throughout the workshop about what happened to you!"

"You're amazing! Assistant Liu actually invited you to dinner, and what's even more amazing is that you actually refused his invitation in front of everyone!"

"Holy crap, don't you know how many people have a crush on Assistant Liu? So many of them think about her all night!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Hu glared at the chubby boy and cursed.

"Fat Tiger, you better confess, do you also fantasize about her masturbating at night? You son of a bitch, the bed creaks every night, keeping everyone awake. Do you think nobody knows?"

Gian grinned.

"As the ancients said, a small Lu state brings joy, but a large Lu state is reduced to ashes. I'm just occasionally happy, cultivating my temperament!"

Wang Hu cursed.

"Damn it, the day you turn to ashes, no one will help you sweep up the dust."

Fat Tiger chuckled foolishly, looking at Ma Junjie.

"Brother Jie, tell me quickly, what's your relationship with my goddess? When will she talk to me? I'd gladly turn to ashes on the spot!"

Ma Junjie rolled his eyes at Pang Hu.

"Gian, I advise you to take care of your health!"

"What goddess? She's just an ordinary person. I don't know her well. I just helped her catch a mouse once, and she probably treated me to dinner out of politeness or gratitude!"

Wang Hu's eyes lit up.

"Bro, are you serious?"

"You only caught one mouse?"

Ma Junjie glanced at Wang Hu and said

Believe it or not!

"I believe you, I believe you!" Wang Hu immediately greeted him with a smile. "Brother Jie, I have to believe you!"

Ma Junjie glanced at Wang Hu again.

Wang Hu called me Ah Jie one minute, then a country bumpkin the next, and now he's even calling me Brother Jie!

It's hilarious.

He waved to Wang Hu and said,

"Wang Hu, go to sleep, I need to rest."

"I have to go to work at 1:30 PM, let me lie down for a bit!"

Wang Hu nodded respectfully.

"Okay, go to sleep, I won't bother you anymore!"

He added with a grin,

"Brother Jie, next time you go catching mice, take me with you. I'll carry the cage for you!"

Ma Junjie shook his head helplessly, lay down on the bed, and ignored him.
