Reborn in the Apocalypse: A Seductive Beauty Captivates a Pure-hearted Roughneck

42: Chapter 42 The school beauty actually has a boyfriend?Xu Wanning shook her finger. ”No, I think Firefighters are amazing, truly amazing. And you were right to become a Firefighter, because you have saved countless lives. Whether they are Firefighters or soldiers, they deserve respect.”

A thin mist covered Lu Chengyue’s eyes. When he first applied to become a Firefighter, his parents had disapproved, and Xu Wanning was the first person to tell him that he had made the right choice.

The noodles arrived.

Xu Wanning picked the beef from her bowl and placed it into Lu Chengyue’s, taking the opportunity to sneak in a few noodles as well. ”Brother Chengyue, eat more, you need to build up your strength.”

Lu Chengyue looked down at the beef in the bowl. ”Eat it yourself.” There weren’t many pieces of beef to begin with; if she gave them to him, what would she eat?

Xu Wanning covered her bowl. ”I can’t finish it.” She had already eaten a little at the cafeteria; if she ate this whole bowl of noodles, she would definitely burst.

Lu Chengyue sighed. ”Eat first. If you can’t finish, give it to me.”

”Okay.” Xu Wanning smiled. It was like this in her past life; Lu Chengyue would always finish whatever she couldn’t, so she wouldn’t be wasting food.

Lu Chengyue ate quickly, and he ate noodles even faster, as if he swallowed them without even chewing. She had only eaten a little bit, and his bowl was already empty.

After he finished, he didn’t rush her or play on his phone; he just sat there, watching Xu Wanning eat.

Xu Wanning felt so self-conscious under his gaze that her hands became clumsy, and she couldn’t even pick up the noodles. ”Why are you looking at me like that?”

After eating, her lips were stained with grease, shiny and glistening, looking very kissable. Lu Chengyue rubbed his fingers together. ”You look good.”

Being so direct, Xu Wanning didn’t react for a moment, and her face turned red. ”Th-thank you.”

Lu Chengyue also felt a bit awkward. ”Y-you’re welcome.”

Xu Wanning took two more bites but truly couldn’t eat any more. She pushed the bowl toward Lu Chengyue. ”I can’t eat any more.”

Lu Chengyue picked up his chopsticks and ate directly, not even thinking about switching to a new pair.

Xu Wanning’s face grew even hotter. Although they had done many intimate things in her past life, this was the first time in this life.

Lu Chengyue finished the noodles in a few bites. ”Let’s go.”

The two of them left the noodle shop and returned to the school gate.

Xu Wanning reached out to take off the jacket, but Lu Chengyue pressed her hand down. ”Keep it on for the walk back; it’s windy outside.”

”What about you?” Lu Chengyue’s clothes were very large; draped over her, it made her face look even smaller, making her look like someone one would want to tease yet protect.

Lu Chengyue buttoned it up for her. ”I drove here; it’s not cold in the car.” After saying this, he turned and left, walking quickly as if something were chasing him.

Xu Wanning turned and walked into the school with a smile. Hehe, she had another excuse to see him again.

She hurried to the classroom just as the bell for class rang. As soon as she walked in, still wearing the man’s jacket, it caused the classmates in the room to whisper.

”The School Beauty is wearing a man’s jacket!”

”The School Beauty actually has a boyfriend?!”

”My heart is broken!”

”Post it on the campus network quickly!”

Bearing everyone’s strange gazes, she finally made it to where Lu Zhiyu and the others were, her breath nearly stopping.

Wen Shuyang tugged at Lu Chengyue’s jacket. ”Oh my god, Ningning, you just came back like this?!”

Xu Wanning was shy. ”It was too cold outside.”

Wen Shuyang started being sarcastic. ”Yeah, it’s too cold outside, and someone deliberately left their coat behind and went to see someone dressed so sexily. Yo yo yo~~~”

Xu Wanning hit her. ”Alright, stop talking, the teacher is here.”

Lu Zhiyu was messaging her brother, [Brother, did you confess yet? I’m dying of anxiety.]

Lu Chengyue didn’t reply. He was on the road driving back, so it wasn’t convenient, and by the time he replied, class had already started.

She didn’t know what was up with the teacher today; they were standing right next to them while lecturing, making her so anxious her soul was about to fly away.

She finally made it to the end of class and opened her phone to see: [No.] Instantly, all her energy dissipated, including her fighting spirit, and she slumped onto the desk, playing dead.

”What’s wrong?” Song Yunqing patted her.

Lu Zhiyu showed them the chat history. ”My brother is way too cowardly, right?!”

Xu Wanning smiled. ”He isn’t ready yet, I’m not in a rush.”

There was actually no difference between them now and being in a relationship; they just didn’t kiss or hug, and it felt pretty good.

”School Beauty, School Beauty, you have a boyfriend, is it Lin Ci from the medical school? Someone posted about it on the campus network before.”

”Yeah, yeah, are you going to announce it?!”

Xu Wanning shook her head. ”It’s not him, don’t guess blindly.”

”School Beauty, you must be shy. Lin Ci is so great and matches you well; we will definitely bless you.”

”Exactly, that guy Lin Ci has such good luck.”

Lu Zhiyu stood up angrily. ”I said it’s not him, it’s my brother!”

Her brother was too cowardly, so she, the younger sister, had to secure his status first.

”What?!” Everyone was stunned. They all knew Lu Zhiyu had a brother who was a Firefighter, but they couldn’t connect the School Beauty to him in any way.

No wonder the School Beauty never accepted any of the boys’ pursuits in school; she was into someone with a stable job!

”Sister Ning!” Zhou Ke rushed into the classroom with a wail. ”Are you really together with Lu Chengyue?”

Heaven knows how miserable he felt when he saw the news posted on the campus network. He had been thinking that he had the advantage of proximity to win her over first.

How had the moon been snatched away by that big lug Lu Chengyue before he could even get close to the water? Ahhh, he was going crazy!

Xu Wanning didn’t deny it. ”Mm, you’ll bless me, right, little brother?” After acknowledging their grandfather, this was the first time she had called Zhou Ke that.

Zhou Ke opened his mouth, looking completely devastated. ”My, my Taoist heart is shattered.”

He stumbled out of the classroom and then turned back. ”Sister, I wish you happiness.” After saying that, he disappeared into the hallway.

The classmates looked curiously in the direction where he disappeared. ”School Beauty, you have a younger brother in our school? We didn’t know that before.”

Xu Wanning wore a standard smile. ”Mm, he’s a freshman. Please help me look after him if you see him later.”

”Don’t worry, leave it to us. We definitely won’t let your little brother get bullied in school.”

”Exactly, the School Beauty’s little brother is our little brother.”

The students patted their chests to guarantee it, one by one, until the bell rang for class, at which point they returned to their seats.

After finishing a day of classes and returning to the dorm, Xu Wanning washed Lu Chengyue’s jacket and hung it on the balcony to dry.

She took a photo and sent it to Lu Chengyue, [The jacket is washed. I’ll return it to you once it’s dry.]

Lu Chengyue had just finished showering and was drying his hair. Seeing the washed jacket, he felt a warmth radiating from within. [No need to wash it next time, I’ll wash it myself. The clothes are so heavy, it’s too tiring for you to wash them.]

Jiang Yishen leaned over to look and sat on the bed sourly. ”Oh my, it’s great to be in a relationship. You even have someone to wash your clothes. I’m so envious.”

Lu Chengyue whipped him with a towel. ”I didn’t find a partner to have her wash my clothes, don’t talk nonsense.” If anyone was going to wash them, it would be him.

A message from Xu Wanning arrived, [Okay, I won’t wash it next time. I’ll bring it to you once it’s dry.]

[Okay.] Lu Chengyue lay on the bed with the corners of his mouth turned up. He couldn’t sleep; he absolutely couldn’t sleep.
