100% Love from the Boss

Chapter 49



Chapter 49 Who’s the Follower?

This day, though Xia Xiaoluo did not have any class, she went to Dwichen’s College early in the morning.

She had failed to keep the appointment with Ouyang Ziqian because of Ling Tianyi yesterday. So, she needed to explain that to him, for she could not let the president of FLY Dance Club lose face.

Xia Xiaoluo found nobody in the dancing room when she arrived there. It seemed that all members of the club had classes to attend. Xia Xiaoluo did not tend to practice dancing so that she had a rest in the rest area.

Xia Xiaoluo wanted to wait for Ouyang Ziqian or other club members. Unluckily, however, instead of those who she really waited for, the one who she had the leas expectation to meet appeared.

Still in a basketball jersey and carrying a big backpack, Fang Ruichen walked in and came over to Xia Xiaoluo in a casual manner.

“Why are you here?” asked Xia Xiaoluo threw him a disgusted-looking stare.

“Why can’t I be here?” Fang Ruichen asked Xia Xiaoluo in reply and took a seat next to her while dropping his backpack on the floor.

“Ugh!” Xia Xiaoluo showed him a scornful look. Fang Ruichen then had no choice but to play his trump card, saying, “If you don’ want to make headlines of the college BBS, go to buy breakfast for me. What I only take is the sandwich of the restaurant across the road. You’d better not buy those junk foods from the entrance of the college.”

Xia Xiaoluo glared at Fang Ruichen with rage when he took out CNY 100 yuan that had been prepared before. He then said to Xia Xiaoluo, “It should be enough. The rest is the tips for your errands.”

“Humph!” Grabbing the banknote, Xia Xiaoluo stormed out of the dancing room.

She soon arrived at the restaurant and bought a sandwich. On the way returning back, she sighed to herself, “It’s sheer robbery! For such a sandwich, it should cost 88 yuan. How do common people scratch a living?”

“Xia Xiaoluo, stop!”

Hearing the voice, Xia Xiaoluo quickly frowned. It was Xia Jingru, her stepsister who was born of the same father but a different mother. Least of all would she tend to meet Xia Jingru.

“You’re really a marvel to afford a sandwich.” Xia Jingru would do her utmost to dig at Xia Xiaoluo as long as there a chance to do so. She did not have any sisterly affection for Xia Xiaoluo.

“What’s up?” asked Xia Xiaoluo. Pausing for three seconds, she did not get Xia Jingru’s reply, so she told her simply, “Then I have to go if you don’t have anything else.”

“Stay!” Xia Jingru blocked Xia Xiaoluo.

“What on earth do you want?” Xia Xiaoluo asked without any patience.

“Xia Xiaoluo, you’ve already married Ling Tianyi, so you’re no longer a girl of innocent love. You are a married woman. Don’t carry on with other men in case President Ling would dump you as soon as he knew it. what’s more, he would wreak vengeance on you.” Xia Jingru said so, for she really felt unhappy about the fact that Xia Xiaoluo should be in the same class with Fang Ruichen. Besides, the two together bent over the desk, asleep.

In addition, what annoyed her most was that Fang Ruichen grabbed her smartphone. She guessed that he did so most probably to protect Xia Xiaoluo, the idiot.

“Xia Xiaoluo, to be frank, have you carried on with Fang Ruichen?” asked Xia Jingru. Hearing her vulgar remarks, Xia Xiaoluo just wanted to ignore her and shook off her, who was trying to pick a quarrel.

However, Xia Jingru insisted on not letting Xia Xiaoluo go. She obstructed in front of Xia Xiaoluo and insisted on knowing what actually happened. While they were pushing, the 88-yuan sandwich, being sold at an exorbitant price in Xia Xiaoluo’s view, fell on the ground.

Xia Xiaoluo was about to pick it up when Xia Jingru forestalled her and crushed the sandwich into pieces.

“How is it? if you still want to take it, then just pick it up. But, I suppose, even a dog shall never eat such a sandwich.” Xia Jingru laughed with a look of smug satisfaction.

“You should pay for it!” Xia Xiaoluo clenched her fists tightly. It cost 88 yuan, which should be wasted in this way.

“You psycho!” Xia Jingru gazed at her impoverished her stepsister with a scornful look.

“Let me repeat it again. You should pay for it!” shouted Xia Xiaoluo with great rage. Her shouts aroused crowds of onlookers, who were talking about them.

Xia Xiaoluo would settle all accounts with her recklessly if she was mad, but Xia Jingru liked to keep up appearances. Founding more and more onlookers, Xia Jingru did not want to continue the argument with Xia Xiaoluo.

“I just accidentally ruined your sandwich. How can you be so mad? I’ll compensate twice for your loss.” Xia Jingru spelled these words out in a loud voice, thus making the witnessing crowd clear that it turned out so petty of Xia Xiaoluo to ask for compensation instead.

Finishing these words, Xia Jingru took three pieces of 100-yuan banknotes out of her brand handbag, saying, “I pay for the sandwich. It can afford a few sandwiches.”

Grabbing the money, however, Xia Xiaoluo slammed it on to the ground. She continued to be in a great rage, saying, “I’ll repeat it again. You must pay a sandwich for me. I don’t need money. All I need is only a sandwich and send it to me here. Or, I will not let you off.”

Xia Jingru glared at Xia Xiaoluo. Tough she was afraid of Ling Tianyi, she would never compromise, for she used to play the bully on Xia Xaoluo from childhood. Her bad temper could not be controlled even under Ling Tianyi’s power.

“Xia Xiaoluo, don’t you have a careful look in the mirror? I have already paid the money back to you. You want me to go to the second floor to buy a sandwich for you, don’t you? You’re really foolish enough to reject a face-saving offer. Like mother, like daughter.”

Xia Xiaoluo punched Xia Jingru immediately as soon as she finished these words.

“Ouch! It hurts… Oooh…” Xia Jingru wept noisily, covering her nose in her hands. How could she know Xia Xiaoluo dared to really beat her with so much might?

“Xia Jingru, I don’t mind that you’ve abused me, beaten me and bullied me. But you dare to abuse my mother. Then I will not let you off.” Finishing these words, Xia Xiaoluo went out of the restaurant, leaving Xia Jingru behind, who was crying and kneel down with her hands covering her nose.

Xia Xiaoluo returned to the dancing room, finding Fang Ruichen’s big backpack remaining in place. But the guy himself was not there. So, Xia Xiaoluo did not want to worry about where the nasty guy went. Instead, she sat on the floorboard of the dancing room, continue her sulk.

“Piggy Xia Xiaoluo, you are really stupid.” Fang Ruichen walked in slowly with a bag of food in his hand. He took a seat next to her.

Only when she saw Fang Ruichen did Xia Xiaoluo remember that she did not have any sandwich to him. For the 100 yuan he gave to her, there only left 12 yuan. Although she was stingy with money, she did not want to profit at Fang Ruichen’s expense. Taking out her wallet, a Hello Kitty one that was bought by Ling Tianyi in the US, Xia Xiaoluo simply took a red banknote, 100 yuan.

“The sandwich was sold out.” Xia Xiaoluo handed the money to Fang Ruichen.

“Piggy Xia Xiaoluo, are you an idiot? Or, do you think other people are as stupid as you?” Fang Ruichen said. He took the food he bought in the restaurant out of the plastic bag and put them in front of Xia Xiaoluo.

Seeing all the food, Xia Xiaoluo became greedy.

“I went to the restaurant just now. You’re really so stupid. How could you beat that unreasonable woman in front of so many students? If you really wanted to do that, you could beat her up a place where nobody was there. What’s more, you punched her on her cheek, where everyone could see the bruise. In this way, even if you were a lot of sense, you would be unjustly accused in the end.”

Seeing Fang Ruichen rattling on her, Xia Xiaoluo could not help but burst into laughter. Her rage had been completely lifted.

“What are you laughing at?” asked Fang Ruichen with doubts.

“Fang Ruichen, do you usually fight with people? You’re so experienced.” Asked Xia Xiaoluo while grinning at him. Staring at her smile, Fang Ruichen could not help feeling at a loss.

“I’m asking you the question. Do you usually fight with other people?” continued Xia Xiaoluo. Fang Ruichen realized what she said to him. Then he scratched his head, saying, “Absolutely! I am not boasting, but I really have extraordinary talent. When I was in the middle-high school in the US, I was unmatched in the whole school.”

“I think you are really boasting about that” Xia Xiaoluo said showing him a skeptical look.

“Hey! Trust me, I got a black belt in taekwondo.” Fang Ruichen rattled on about his heroic deeds he did when he was in the US once he started talking.

Xia Xiaoluo was very interested in his story. Of course, Xia Xiaoluo also ate all the food that he bought before she realized it.

“Xia Xiaoluo, that is my breakfast. Why did you take it?” Fang Ruichen found all the food had disappeared after he talked for a while.

“What a lively scene! I didn’t expect that there should be someone in the dancing room in the morning.” Xiao Man’s voice came in.

Xia Xiaoluo had a glance at the sound of her voice only to find Xiao Man and Ouyang Ziqian walked into the room one by one.

“Senior Ouyang and Senior Xiao Man, how are you!” Xia Xiaoluo stood up and greeted them warmly.

“Xiaoluo, you came to practice dancing so early, having your footman together with you.” Xiao Man poked fun at Xia Xiaoluo when she found Fang Ruichen.

But, at this moment, Fang Ruichen felt unhappy. Quickly stood up, he was in a commanding position and spoke to the senior schoolmate who was much shorter than him, “You’re wrong. I am not her footman. On the contrary, she is my follower?”

“Anyway, as far as I know, it is you who followed Xiaoluo to the dancing room when I met you for the first time. Today, it’s the second time for me to find you here again together with Xiaoluo.” smiled Xiao Man.

“Humph!” Fang Ruichen said with a cold face, turning to Xia Xiaoluo and asking, “Piggy Xia Xiaoluo, to be frank, who is the follower?”

Xia Xiaoluo really hated Fang Ruichen, for he dared to call her “Piggy Xia Xiaoluo” in front of her senior schoolmates who she admired the most. “Who is the follower? What a boring question! This question is very boring! It depends on you!”

“You!” Fang Ruichen pointed to Xia Xiaoluo.

Fang Ruichen and Xia Xiaoluo quarreled with each other again. Xiao Man then said to Ouyang Ziqian with a smile, “Ziqian, you see, they are really a quarrelsome and loving couple, aren’t they?”

“Yeah!” replied Ouyang Ziqian with a perfunctory attitude while his eyes were fixed on Xia Xiaoluo.

“Senior Ouyang, this is the dancing room of FLY Dance Club. Are strangers allowed to come in?” asked Xia Xiaoluo all of a sudden.

Ouyang Ziqian was stupefied suddenly, and he did not expect that he should be involved in their dispute. “Junior Ruichen, if you are also interested in dancing, you’re warmly welcomed.”

“I’m not interested at all!” Fang Ruichen said proudly, for what he hated most was that he was named as “junior”.

“Yeah, you are the outstanding sportsperson for basketball in the future!” Xiao Man said. Fang Ruichen looked at her and then he remembered he was humiliated in front of this woman yesterday. He did not want to say anything else and he left the dancing room carrying his backpack.

“Xiaoluo, your little boyfriend really has his temperament. It seems that he is still mad at me.” Xiao Man said with her arm in Xia Xiaoluo’s.

“Senior Xiao Man, you misunderstood me. I have nothing to do with him! It’s true!” Xia Xiaoluo explained immediately. Xiao Man pondered and smiled to her, saying, “Okay, nothing! I didn’t say anything.”

“By the way, Senior Ouyang, what did you contact me for yesterday?” Xia Xiaoluo wanted to change the topic at this moment, for she did not want to be misunderstood.

Xiao Man replied her before Ouyang Ziqian had the time to say a word, “The president wanted to find a dancing partner. As I had no time, he called you then. But now, I am free again, so, Xiaoluo, you have to make the best use of your time if you tend to have a dancing partner.”

Xia Xiaoluo looked at Ouyang Ziqian and then she looked at Xiao Man again, saying, “If Senior Ouyang tends to have a dancing partner, nobody will have the qualification to match him but you, Senior Xiao Man. I am so clumsy that I can only do a solo dance. But I am very looking forward to the performance given by you two. I will cheer you up.”

Xia Xiaoluo offered her blessing. But in her heart, she supposed that she would be very lucky if she could dance with Senior Ouyang!
