Fei Bai had heard that there was someone in Sea City High that he could not afford to offend, and that was Lord Chen.
However, no one could say for sure why they shouldn't provoke him. Even the leader of the nearby gangsters couldn't say for sure.
Ten minutes later, Fei Bai finally understood how powerful "Lord Chen" was.
He crawled on the ground and could not get up.
He had always been steady, accurate, and fast. He had never lost a fight before, but today, he had finally met his match.
However, Huo Beichen did not end up well either. His arm was injured and was bleeding. He calmly took out a tissue and wiped his wound before throwing it aside. He looked down at Fei Bai and said, "You are indeed a ruthless person, but you have never received professional training. Help me protect someone, and I can make you the most powerful person in the world."
Fei Bai's eyes lit up when he heard this. He nodded. "Okay."
Huo Beichen ignored him and sent his location to Su Ye before heading home.
When he left, the meat was still stewing in the pot. After a while, it should be even more delicious, right?
A smile appeared on his face as he thought about this.
Huo Beichen went out again. Ning Meng sat in the living room, waiting for him.
After a while, there was a commotion at the door. Soon, the smell of a young man mixed with the smell of blood hit her. Ning Meng stood up and walked over to check on Huo Beichen. He did not seem to be injured.
She immediately moved her head over and sniffed his body, making Huo Beichen uncomfortable. He could not help but think that he had not showered today and was sweating from the fight. Could it be that he smelled?
Just as he was thinking about this, Ning Meng pulled up his sleeve, revealing the wound on his arm.
The wound was not deep, but it was still bleeding.
Ning Meng panicked. "Why didn't you tell me that you were injured?"
She ran upstairs and took the first aid kit down. Then, she disinfected and bandaged his wound. Her movements were very gentle, as if she was afraid of hurting him. While treating the wound, she asked, "Does it hurt?"
This kind of pain was bearable.
However, Huo Beichen paused and said, "Yes."
"Ah? It hurts? "
Ning Meng was even more careful now. After disinfecting his wound, she took the gauze and tied a bow.
Huo Beichen was confused.
He stared at the bow with an indescribable expression.
Ning Meng, on the other hand, was admiring the fruits of her labor and exclaimed, "Look, it's so beautiful!"
"…"
He stretched out his hand, wanting to untie the bowtie. However, before he could do so, Ning Meng anxiously held onto his hand. "Don't mess around. This is just right. If you untie it and tie it again, what if the wound split open?"
It was only after she said this that she realized that she was holding his hand.
His palms were very hot and dry, but his fingers were very beautiful.
It had been a long time since Ning Meng had such intimate contact with him. Holding hands like this made her feel nostalgic.
While she was in a daze, Huo Beichen sensed something. He wanted to retract his hand, but he realized that the girl was still holding onto his hand in a daze.
Huo Beichen's ears turned red. When he looked at the girl again, he saw that she was not embarrassed at all. She was really … thick-skinned!
Huo Beichen wanted to pull his hand back, but the girl's fingers were so soft and delicate that he felt as if they would break if he used too much force. He did not dare to move.
Women were really different from men. They looked very delicate and fragile. It seemed that they would break if he touched them.
This thought made Huo Beichen's hands become soft. He did not argue with her anymore. He stood up with the bowtie bandage and went upstairs.
When he left, Ning Meng's hand was empty. She asked, "What are you doing?"
"I'm changing." Huo Beichen glanced at her. "Are you wearing this bloody shirt for dinner?"
"…"
During dinner, Huo Beichen acted as if nothing had happened. He did not say much during dinner. After dinner, he did not rush to go upstairs either. Instead, he stared at Xiao Tiantian.
A Tibetan Mastiff that had its head smashed. How useless.
Just as he was thinking about this, Ning Meng put down her bowl. "Anyway, I'm not going to school anymore. From tomorrow onwards, I'll train Xiao Tiantian!"
Huo Beichen glanced at her but did not say anything.
After Ning Meng had fed Xiao Tiantian, Ning Ke and Huo Beichen had more or less digested their food. Both of them went upstairs to continue their studies.
Ning Meng asked, "Lord Chen, did you understand today's lesson?"
Huo Beichen paused for a while and then looked up. "I don't really understand."
"Then, I'll explain it to you."
Ning Meng followed Huo Beichen to the study room to tutor him.
The next day, after Ning Ke and Huo Beichen had gone to school, Ning Meng went to the market to buy groceries.
She held Xiao Tiantian's hand and walked for two steps. Suddenly, she heard Xiao Tiantian's cry. She looked down and saw Xiao Tiantian hiding behind her in a panic.
Following Xiao Tiantian's fearful gaze, she saw Fei Bai.
Fei Bai looked the same as he would a few years later. He still had a buzz cut and looked slightly immature. He was still a teenager.
Thinking about what Boss Fei Bai would do eight years later, Ning Meng was a little afraid. She took a step back and asked, "Boss, what are you doing?"
Fei Bai put both his hands into his pockets. Wearing a baseball cap, he lowered his head and casually replied, "To protect you."
Ning Meng was speechless.
When she heard this, she remembered that Huo Beichen had gone out last night and fought again. Looking at Fei Bai's current appearance, she had a guess.
She coughed and asked, "Boss, why are you wearing a mask?"
"… Because my face is swollen."
He did not reply, so Ning Meng continued to ask, "Why are you wearing a hat? You look like a celebrity ~"
Fei Bai was speechless.
Fei Bai did not say anything and just followed beside her.
Ning Meng continued to smile. "Boss, who is your language teacher?"
Fei Bai glanced at her.
Ning Meng chuckled. "I think I should go and give her a gift. Otherwise, I would have been the one whose head was broken yesterday!"
Fei Bai was speechless.
At school.
Ning Ke went to school a little early.
She was very afraid of Huo Beichen. So, without Ning Meng, although both of them went to school together, she would always leave five minutes earlier.
When she reached the school gate, a few girls in front of her stopped her. "Zhang Ke Ke, oh, no, you're called Ning Ke now. Um, Ning Ke, can you do us a favor?"
Ning Ke was confused.
When Huo Beichen arrived at school, he saw Ning Ke standing in front of his desk the moment he entered the classroom. Ning Ke had stuffed a letter into his desk pocket.
Huo Beichen furrowed his brows.
After Ning Ke Ke Ke had put the letter in, she hurriedly walked to the front and lowered her head as if she had done something wrong.
Huo Beichen snorted and walked to the front of his desk.
He rummaged through his pocket and took out the letter. There were a few words written on the envelope.
To Huo Beichen.
There was also a heart drawn on the back with a red pen.
This was to make up for yesterday's ~
