Chapter 276: Chapter 276 Boar And Tiger

When the green light was on, Dong Xiaoye shifted gear and stepped on the gas. The car was like an arrow shooting out from the string, swished through the intersection, and arrived at the gate of my community in a moment. I felt like she was deliberately driving that fast.

After I thanked her and bade farewell to her, I pushed the door open and got out of the car. It was at this moment, she suddenly called me, “Little Chu!”

“Hmm?”

Dong Xiaoye also got out of the car and stood on the other side of the car. Seeing me looking back at her, her little face flushed from alcohol seemed to be even redder. Her eyes flashed with strange light and she quickly avoided my gaze, “It… it might be difficult for you to get upstairs because of your injury. I think it is better for me to help you.”

“No need.” I declined her kindness hurriedly. Probably I had declined it too quickly, Sister Tiger’s expression froze for a moment, and then a faint of anger gradually appeared on her face. “My mom is also at my flat. If she saw that I came back with a woman, what do you think she would think? My leg is fine, it doesn’t hurt that much anymore, let alone climbing to the fourth floor, I think I can even play football now.” I could only explain with a bitter smile.

“Oh…” Dong Xiaoye felt embarrassed and said vaguely, “Then take care. Bye.”

“So do you. You’ve drunk quite a lot of alcohol just now, you must pay more attention when driving on the road,” After thinking about it, I added, “drive slowly, and don’t drive absentmindedly like you were driving just now, it can cause an accident easily.”

Dong Xiaoye was about to get into the car. After she heard the words, she straightened up her body abruptly, and groaned at me in an embarrassed manner, “Who was absent minded? E, even if I was, it’s none of your business!”

There were a lot of things good about Dong Xiaoye, but she always liked to show that she was a tough woman. I didn’t want to argue with her, lest it would cause her to drive even faster just to prove to me that she was fine. I simply waved my hand at her and said with a smile, “okay then, see you tomorrow.”

“Hmph!” Dong Xiaoye snorted, turned her head in a huff, and deliberately ignored me.

Why would she get mad at me for this? I was speechless. Maybe it was because she had drunk too much today. I shook my head and thought helplessly. But after walking away a few steps, I heard her call out to me again, “Little Chu, wait!”

I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “What is it this time?” I asked helplessly.

Sister Tiger looked around. Although it was nearly ten o’clock at night, there were still many people coming and going at the gate of the community. She was dressed in casual clothes, but her police car was very eye-catching. Even if a normal beautiful woman with a car would attract many people’s attention, let alone a beautiful woman with a police car. So people passing by would inevitably look at us a few more times, wondering why we were standing at the gate. Under the attention of others, anyone would feel uncomfortable, let alone Dong Xiaoye. So she walked around the car and trotted toward me. Staring at me with her big, single-eyelid watery eyes, she deliberately lowered her slightly trembling voice, “you…are really not angry at me for lying to you? It seems that… I haven’t apologized to you…”

No wonder she was acting weird earlier. It turned out that she was thinking about this. I couldn’t help but smile. I didn’t expect that the fierce Tiger Sister would be troubled by such a trivial matter. Actually, it was quite understandable. With her temperament, asking him to apologize to other people was a very embarrassing thing. But if she didn’t apologize to other people, she would feel very uncomfortable…

Sister Tiger was both embarrassed and angry. “What are you laughing at?” !” She asked in a sulky mood.

“Nothing, nothing.” I hurriedly assumed a serious expression and carried on with a stern tone, “You didn’t do anything wrong. In a sense, you have done a good thing for more than two hundred children. Why do you need to apologize?”

“In a sense…” Sister Tiger murmured, “But in a sense, I did deceive you…”

“You didn’t deceive me, at most you are just concealing the difficulties of school from me,” I figured out that if I didn’t dispel Sister Tiger’s worry, she probably wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight, so I comforted her and said, “but as you said, I am an outsider, and I am not close to principal Zhu, so if she and the school have any difficulties, it has nothing to do with me. Therefore it’s normal that you didn’t tell me. It would only be not normal if you did tell me.”

Dong Xiaoye stared at me blankly for a long time, before saying, “what you said made some sense…”

I smiled and said, “Of course. Anyway, now that you have figured it out, you should go home and have a good rest. See you tomorrow.”

“Stop!” Dong Xiaoye grabbed my wrist and stopped me. She frowned and said, “You think I am a fool? Little Chu, you said this deliberately because you were afraid that I would feel guilty, right? You don’t need to do this. I knew what I was doing, and I was being dishonest, so I have to apologize to you. But I also meant what I said. You are still young, making money using that kind of method is not right. People, especially men, need to earn money using honest methods.”

“You are really long-winded…” I sighed with a smile, “even more long-winded than my mother…”

“What did you say? ! I was saying it for your own good, you…” All of sudden, Dong Xiaoye stopped talking, and as if she thought of something embarrassing, her face immediately blushed. She coughed and quickly turned her face away. “Anyway, you will not spend this money for nothing.” Although she still said it with a sulky tone, it was much better than before.

Just when I was confused about what Dong Xiaoye was saying, she had already turned around completely with her back to me. Then I heard her vaguely asked in a low voice, “Little Chu, I know that you have just lost your job, and probably you also need some money, so I didn’t want you to donate all of them. But I didn’t expect you… You need to tell me the truth. The reason why you donated all the money, is it, is it… because of me?”

“Of course.” Was there even a question about it? Without her, how would I know who Zhu Danchen was?

Dong Xiaoye’s shoulders trembled a little, and she was silent for a short while. When she opened her mouth again, she suddenly scolded, “You can even admit this kind of thing that quickly! You shameless!”

Huh? I was speechless.

For those children, I had spent all the money I earned from Zhang Mingjie, but not only did I not hear any praises from her, but she even said that I was shameless? How was I shameless? Even if I had a good temper, I also couldn’t help but feel a little bit angry. However, just when I wanted to ask, I saw Dong Xiaoye turned around to face me again. The indifference of her expression contradicted the complicated emotions in her watery eyes. Although I didn’t know why she was acting weird, I could feel that she seemed to be deliberately concealing her true self, so I was dazed for a while. Then I heard her continue with an indifferent tone. No, it should be said that she was trying to pretend to be indifferent. “Although we have not known each other for long, I believed that as long as I tricked you a little, you would donate some money to the school, but I didn’t expect you would… Little Chu, am I too smart, or are you too dumb?”

“What’s the difference? Doesn’t saying that you are too smart mean that I am too dumb?” I chuckled, “probably I am too dumb…”

“If…” Dong Xiaoye lowered her head, her voice was so low now that it sounded like the sound of a mosquito. “If you know a person has bad intentions for you, and you know you should distance yourself from this person, would you continue to allow this person to approach you, or would you be more foolish and approach her?” She asked timidly. There seemed to be a faint of guilt in her tone.

Was Sister Tiger too concerned about tricking me into donating money? I didn’t expect that she would blame herself so much that she was worried that I would alienate her in the future… It was absolutely a lie to say that I didn’t feel distressed for donating all the money, but Sister Tiger’s reaction like this gave me great comfort. At the moment, all I felt was that it was really worth it to help such a loyal and kind-hearted friend. So I pretended that I really wasn’t angry and said with a smile, “since you said if, it means that it is hypothetical, and it is not real. Since it is not real, there is no reason to distance yourself from that person, right? If I have this kind of suspicious mind, then I don’t need to distance myself from other people, because no one would want to become my friend.”

Dong Xiaoye clearly didn’t want to stop talking about this topic, “What if it is real? What if she has lied to you?”

Women were really the most stubborn creature in the world. I could only bite the bullet and said, “then I also won’t alienate her. I will try to change her, be tolerant, and be a good guide. After all, this is what friends are for.”

“Even if she would hurt you in the end?”

I didn’t believe that Dong Xiaoye was that kind of person, so I firmly nodded, “Mhm, life is very short, how many friends can you have in your lifetime? If I just abandoned my friends because of some small mistakes they made, then I would regret it all my life. Xiaoye, you are thinking too much…”

Yes, I was afraid that Dong Xiaoye would think too much, and would not be able to face her true self because of self-blame.

Dong Xiaoye sighed quietly and murmured, “Yes, I am thinking too much, because I’m afraid I will act foolishly if I don’t think too much…”

“Huh?” I was confused, “What did you say?”

After our eyes met again, Dong Xiaoye suddenly changed her tone and said coldly, “I said, you are really stupid!” When the voice fell, she added another sentence in a low voice, “But I seem to be stupider than you…”

I didn’t understand what this woman was thinking at all. “Xiaoye, what are you talking about? What do you mean I am stupid, and you are stupider than me? What exactly are you trying to say?” I asked with a bewildered face.

“I…” Sister Tiger’s blushing face seemed to be emitting steam. She glared at me fiercely, “I mean, you are a stupid boar!”

After that, she kicked me in my shin, causing me to let out a painful cry, turned around, and ran away.

“Hey! Little Chu!”

Opening the door of her car, Dong Xiaoye looked at me, who was squatting on the ground and holding my shin in pain, and said loudly to me, “I admit that I am stupid. I know that a certain boar is dangerous and he is trying to use all kinds of tricks to get my attention, but I still can’t help but want to get near him and learn more about him….. but don’t you dare think that I will fall for his trick easily, I just have a little interest in that boar! Do you understand! Just a little bit!”

Under the street lamps, I didn’t know why I would suddenly remember how I met Dong Xiaoye the first time. She was still that tough, arrogant, and unreasonable policewoman. But compared to the first time I met her, tonight, she appeared to be more feminine…

The police car shot out of my community like a leopard whose butt was on fire. It rushed to the main road savagely and quickly went away, while I was still squatting on the ground in a daze. However, all the passers-by were covering their mouths, chuckling after hearing what Dong Xiaoye shouted.

What did Sister Tiger mean?

Boar? Was she talking about me? It sounded like she was talking about me? But why was she calling me a boar?

After thinking for a while, the result shocked me.

Sister Tiger was interested in me?

Oh no…

A tiger was interested in a boar, what kind of joke was this…
