Chapter 1210: You’re Hiding Something
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Buddhism has always paid attention to karma.
If the baby’s parents were alive, the temple would not accept them.
Unless they were orphans.
Or if they were really Buddhas.
Compared to the latter, Bai Zhun naturally felt that the former was the real reason.
So up until now, the invitation letter from the foreign university was still kept by Chief Bai in his study.
Bai Zhun was destined to go to the army, but before he went to the army, the only person he could not bear to leave was Ajiu.
He believed that he had thought it through thoroughly, but he did not expect that someone would approach Ajiu without him knowing.
Ajiu’s head was also feeling stuffy.
Looking at the hamburger that Gu Cheng handed over, she shook her head. “Thank you. I don’t eat meat; I only eat vegetables. I have to go back to the school. Otherwise, my little brother will be worried if he can’t find me later.”
“He’s shopping with my cousin right now. He probably won’t be able to spare time to pick you up in the afternoon.” Gu Cheng wiped his hands and continued, “To be honest, if I had a sister like you, I would definitely feel guilty like Bai Zhun. So, please believe me: Don’t be too attached to your brother. He must be in a difficult position now. Otherwise, how could he not tell you that he knows my cousin? He must be afraid that if you would be unhappy once you know about it.”
Ajiu tilted her head and pursed her lips. In the end, she still insisted on going back to school.
Gu Cheng couldn’t even catch up with her and bumped into many people along the way. With his unfinished hamburger in his hands, he was a little unhappy.
Why did Ajiu not listen to anyone when it came to her brother?
In fact, what happened today had a certain impact on Ajiu.
When she was young, she thought that her little brother was a Buddhist disciple like her and could not break the precepts, so he could not fall in love.
Now she understood that her little brother was actually different from her. He could fall in love, get married, and have children.
She had to ask if her little brother really had a girl he liked.
If he did.
She didn’t want to bother her little brother.
But for some reason, she felt very uncomfortable in her heart.
Ajiu’s awkwardness was reflected in the snacks that Bai Zhun stuffed into her school bag. She didn’t eat a single one of them. Even when the little white cat nudged her with its soft head, she didn’t want to talk to the cat like she usually did.
It was still snowing outside.
Bai Zhun was still waiting for Ajiu to finish class at the same place. He carried his school bag on one shoulder and wore a pure white down jacket on top. His black and white eyes were even more distinct.
The students who were coming and going were all looking at Bai Zhun.
“It’s the Bai Zhun!”
“He’s definitely here to pick up his sister.”
“Do you guys feel that he is getting more and more handsome every day?”
“He’s simply a Prince Charming. Not only is he famous in No. 1 High School, the students of No. 3 High School and No. 2 High School have all come to see him. There are students of No. 2 High School who are chasing after him. I don’t know if it’s true, but according to reliable sources, the two of them have already started a conversation.”
“It can’t be true. As a sister-lover, Bai Zhun doesn’t have time to date. Other than picking up Ajiu, I haven’t seen senior high school Belle with anyone else.”
“I’m afraid it’s true this time. My Best Friend is from No. 2 High School. She even saw her female senior bought takeaway coffee with Bai Zhun at Starbucks.”
With Xiao Bai on her head, Ajiu listened to the discussions around her. For some reason, her footsteps felt a little heavy.
She tilted her head to take a look before she realized that she had not eaten the snacks in her backpack that day.
When Bai Zhun saw her, his eyes softened completely. He reached out to take her backpack off. Then, he frowned. “Why is it so heavy?”
“Yes.” Ajiu was beautiful. She reached out to hold her backpack and reported honestly, “I didn’t eat snacks this afternoon.”
Bai Zhun paused for a moment and thought of her going out today. “Weren’t you hungry if you didn’t have snacks in the classroom?”
“I was not hungry today.”Ajiu was still very obedient. She answered all the questions asked. “I went out to eat French fries.”
Bai Zhun smiled. As he spoke, he inserted the straw into the yogurt which was passed to her. “Why did you think of going out today?”
Ajiu felt terrible. If her little brother knew that she was going to buy him a present, there would be no surprise if he knew about it in advance.
How did she accidentally let her little brother ask so many questions?
She could not help but reach out to knock on her little head. Unfortunately, her left hand was already in Bai Zhun’s embrace, and her other hand could only hold the yogurt.
“It’s nothing. I was just taking a stroll.” Ajiu lowered her head, her long eyelashes drooping. She sucked the straw one after another, looking a little guilty.
Seeing this, Bai Zhun’s heart felt like it had been punched by someone.
Ajiu’s reaction was not within his expectations at all.
He knew better than anyone how obedient Ajiu was. Usually, she would say whatever she asked, but this time, it was obvious that she wanted to hide it from him.
Just because of that little brat who was in the same class as her?
Bai Zhun’s Adam’s apple moved with difficulty. His hand that was hanging on the other side also clenched tightly.
It was clearly snowing heavily outside, but he did not feel the slightest bit of cold. Instead, there seemed to be something burning in the middle of his chest.
It was very uncomfortable indeed.
That kind of discomfort even made him want to crush something.
But the person standing in front of him was Ajiu. A long time ago, on the day Ajiu wanted to return to the temple, he had sworn that no matter what happened, he would never lose his temper in front of her again.
If it was possible, he would never want Ajiu to see his dirtiest and most unscrupulous side.
That way, at the very least, he could still be her little brother.
Once everything was exposed, Bai Zhun could not imagine how she would perceive him.
He remembered the truth of a saying: One has nothing when one is in darkness alone.
After all, this world was so big. There would not be significant changes with one’s appearance or disappearance.
But when someone brought you light, so that you could hold another person in your arms every day and look at her smiling at you, you would not want to return to darkness no matter what happened in the future. You would definitely be fond of the little person who want to feed you eggs with her chopsticks.
The only thing Bai Zhun didn’t want to let go of was this small, soft hand in his palm.
Ajiu walked beside Bai Zhun. She was really obedient and beautiful beyond belief.
“This is the real princess and prince!”
“To be honest, I like my little Princess Ajiu more than Bai Zhun. Really, can I bring her home for a period of time?”
“I want a little princess too. That day, Ajiu helped me carry the suitcases. The boys didn’t help carry the two big suitcases. When Ajiu saw it, she immediately helped me carry the heavy stuff to the dormitory with an ice-cream in her mouth. She looked so adorable!”
As if she heard someone saying her name, Ajiu raised her little head and looked over. Her tiger-like little face was very good-looking, but also silly and cute.
