When Will My Childhood Sweetheart Marry Me?-Chapter 28 - 0: I Want to Eat Egg Fried Rice

The confrontation ended with the defeat of the vocational high school next door. After the opposition’s people left, Pei Yan tilted his head to signal three buddies to clear the scene, and their main target was Principal Lu’s son.

At this moment, only Chen Jin and a few others were left in the alley. They didn’t want to stick around like third wheels, but before leaving, they had to help Brother Yan get rid of the unrelated people.

After negotiating for a while, the others remained indifferent, treating their words as if they were unheard.

Hey! Kid’s asking for it.

Chen Jin rolled up his sleeves and mimicked the boss’s earlier gesture, reaching out to grab Lu Chen’s shoulder. That weak bookworm would surely pee his pants from fright.

But before his hand even touched the person’s shoulder, it just...

"Ah, fuck! My bones are gonna break, surname Lu, let go of me!"

Lu Chen grabbed Chen Jin’s fingers and tightened his grip mercilessly, causing the other to yell out in pain.

He Qingzhou and Xu Kanfeng’s expressions changed, preparing to step forward to stop him, but a cold voice from behind halted them.

"If Captain Lu feels itchy fists, he can practice with me," Pei Yan said with a cold smile, carrying a lingering fierceness as he lazily walked over with his jacket in hand.

Jiang Shuyao felt a headache developing and quickly stepped forward to stand between the two, saying helplessly to Pei Yan, "He didn’t mean any harm; don’t bring the innocent into this."

Fighting had become an addiction; they’d start brawling at the drop of a hat, turning a good student into a depiction of the underworld.

The girl’s face was taut with nervousness, her hands slightly spread, ready to protect the person behind her even if it meant stepping over her dead body.

Very good.

The young lady dares to stand up to him now for others.

Pei Yan slowly dropped his smile, his eyes darkening as he stared at her, "Tonight I want to eat egg fried rice, you cook."

"..." Fuck.

Chen Jin and the others looked at each other, all stunned. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

What the boss said was really...

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen’s gaze on the girl noticeably changed, a fleeting shift crossing his features before his expression gradually returned to normal after a moment of silence.

Unaware of everyone’s reactions, Jiang Shuyao just wanted to quickly get him home, ignoring the others present, and immediately softened her voice, "Okay, I’ll call Auntie later and ask her to save some rice."

She added after a pause, "Eat as much as you want."

Her soft and obedient demeanor made Pei Yan feel an itch in his heart, making him feel somewhat lightheaded, his lips unconsciously curving into a smirk.

Heh, she’s giving a nice face.

He raised his hand to beckon Chen Jin over.

"Eh, what’s up, Brother Yan?"

Chen Jin, like a lackey, hurried over and then heard their leader casually say, "We’re all schoolmates; we should love each other and use words instead of fists, got it?"

Uh.

Three black lines slid down Chen Jin’s forehead.

Bro, a face is a good thing, let’s keep some.

However, because of the boss’s imposing manner, Chen reluctantly nodded, damn it, all that pain earlier had been for nothing.

It was getting late, and Pei Yan suddenly felt a bit hungry. He threw his jacket over his shoulder, walked over, and casually picked up the girl’s backpack, smiling nonchalantly, "Let’s go, time to go home."

As he said this, he’d already passed her and headed toward the alley mouth. Jiang Shuyao silently despised him for a while, then turned to apologize to Lu Chen, "Don’t mind what happened just now, he’s been a law unto himself since childhood."

The girl’s somewhat guilty expression seemed especially irritating to Lu Chen. He slowly conjured a faint smile, his tone neither light nor heavy, "Pei Yan is Pei Yan, you are you. Jiang Shuyao, you needn’t blame yourself."

In that moment, she faintly sensed the displeasure in the squad leader’s tone, but looking at his expression, he didn’t seem angry.

Boys nowadays, increasingly enigmatic to understand.

Both the little devil and Lu Chen were just so.

For the first time, Jiang Shuyao felt bewildered.
