233: Chapter 233 Madness! This world has gone mad!
Lu Xingye took a deep breath and, facing the sleeping Jiang You, said word by word, with utmost solemnity:
"Actually... every time I look into those deep blue eyes of yours, I get this urge to..."
"The urge to acknowledge you as my foster father!"
"Jiang You, teach me how to maintain that natural, effortless sense of relaxation after showing off!"
"..."
Gou Fugui, inside the wardrobe, almost choked on his breath, and Xiang Batian slapped his own face.
Behind the curtains, Xie Fuyao closed his eyes in despair.
The four women in the bathroom rolled their eyes in unison, simultaneously feeling a sense of self-loathing: "I actually expected an edgelord to say something normal."
Principal Pang Ban, under the bed, let out a long sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "Thankfully, my emergency Heart medicine was saved. This kid's thought process is truly beyond ordinary people."
However, at this moment of extreme awkwardness, one capable of being recorded in the annals of social death at Magic City Martial Arts University!
"Thump, thump, thump!!!"
A sudden, forceful pounding on the door exploded in the silent corridor like a thunderclap out of the blue!
"Holy crap!"
Lu Xingye, who was deeply immersed in self-moved emotion, was jolted by the sudden pounding on the door, and the epic emotions he had just brewed instantly shattered into pieces.
"Who is it?! Can't a guy pour his Heart out in the middle of the night in peace!"
Lu Xingye was annoyed, but he glanced at Jiang You, who was still sound asleep on the bed, and the persona of the "cold blade-wielder" in his mind made him instantly sober up.
"No! This weak appearance of me pouring my Heart out must never be seen by outsiders!"
"I need to hide first, then make a cool entrance later!"
Because of the sudden event, Lu Xingye's brain heated up, completely forgetting his grand words just now, and his body very honestly made the most instinctive avoidance reaction.
He looked around and the first thing he saw was the large floor-to-ceiling window and the thick velvet curtains.
"That's it! The perfect hiding spot!"
Lu Xingye moved with extreme agility, sliding over to the curtains. To show off his nimbleness, he reached out and pulled the curtains open with great force!
"Swishβ!"
The curtains were ripped open roughly.
Moonlight spilled down, illuminating the handsome face behind the curtains, which was completely distorted by extreme embarrassment and despair.
Xie Fuyao was holding an extremely stifled standing posture, clutching the thirty-page "Review Report" tightly with both hands, looking at Lu Xingye, who had suddenly appeared before him, with a look of looking at an idiot, completely lifeless.
Their eyes met.
The expression on Lu Xingye's face froze instantly, and his eyes, the only part exposed, nearly popped out of their sockets:
"Xie... Xie Fuyao? Why are you here?!"
"Could it be... you also want to acknowledge him as..."
"Shut up!!!"
Xie Fuyao's psychological defenses completely collapsed.
He had never been this embarrassed in his life, and he couldn't stand being squeezed behind the same curtain with a lunatic in the middle of the night!
He mercilessly reached out, pressed his hand on Lu Xingye's face, pushed him out extremely roughly, and backhanded the curtain shut, sealing himself back in the darkness.
"Get lost! I didn't see anything! You didn't see anything either!"
Lu Xingye, pushed out, stumbled two steps, completely stunned.
"What the hell is this situation? The senior chief of Magic City Martial Arts University, hiding behind Jiang You's curtains in the middle of the night?"
"Could this be the secret to him getting stronger? Is he secretly absorbing Jiang You's Qi and blood?"
"Despicable!"
"Thump, thump, thump!!!"
The knocking on the door outside became increasingly urgent.
Lu Xingye didn't have time to think, his Heart pounding wildly.
"The curtains won't work, then the wardrobe!"
He turned and rushed toward the massive mahogany wardrobe in the corner, grabbed the handles with both hands, and yanked them open!
"Creak!"
The wardrobe doors swung wide open.
An extremely thick stench of sweat rushed towards him.
In the cramped space of the wardrobe.
Gou Fugui and Xiang Batian were hugging each other tightly in an extremely twisted and ambiguous position.
Gou Fugui's glasses were crooked up to his forehead, and Xiang Batian's biceps were engorged and shining due to extreme tension.
Three people, six eyes, in the dim light of the wardrobe, fell into a deathly silence.
Lu Xingye's hand shook like he had Parkinson's, and he pointed at the two in the wardrobe, his voice cracking:
"You... you two... in Jiang You's wardrobe... what are you doing?"
Gou Fugui awkwardly pulled out a smile that was uglier than crying, and waved his hand very stiffly:
"Hi... Old Lu, what a coincidence. We are... testing the weight limit of this wardrobe. Do you want to come in and squeeze in too?"
"Squeeze your grandpa!"
Before Lu Xingye could react, Xiang Batian's rugged face flushed red with extreme shame and anger. He directly extended a thick leg, ruthlessly kicked Lu Xingye out of the wardrobe, and then with a "bang," slammed the cabinet door shut.
From inside the cabinet came Xiang Batian's desperate roar: "Fugui! I have no face to see anyone! Let's drop out of school tomorrow!"
Two consecutive "blind box openings" had produced shocking effects comparable to a horror movie, and Lu Xingye's mental state was already on the verge of collapse.
"Crazy! This world is crazy!"
"Just how many people are hidden in this room?"
"Thump, thump, thump!!!"
The knocking on the door outside had turned into violent kicking, as if it would burst in the next second.
Lu Xingye completely panicked, spinning around the room like a headless fly, and finally locked his gaze on the luxurious large bathroom that looked the safest.
"The bathroom! As long as I can hide in the bathroom..."
He rushed to the bathroom door in two or three steps, fumbling to turn the doorknob, and suddenly pushed it open a crack.
However, before he could see the situation inside.
"Get lost!!!"
Four synchronized, furious female voices exploded in the bathroom simultaneously like four nuclear bombs!
Immediately after.
A long, beautiful leg wearing a red high heel, with a speed invisible to the naked eye, kicked out from the door crack with extreme precision, landing solidly on Lu Xingye's face!
"Bang!!!"
Lu Xingye, along with his blade, was like a baseball hit for a home run, kicked flying five meters away, rolling several times on the ground before stopping.
With a "click," the bathroom door was once again firmly locked.
"What the hell..."
Lu Xingye lay on the carpet, covering the bright red high-heel print on his face, tears almost falling.
"What kind of hellish place is this, anyway?"
He struggled to get up, but his head was spinning, the force of that kick just now was too great, leaving him dazed and confused.
He shook his dizzy head, trying to figure out the situation. He just came to pour his Heart out to Jiang You and maybe learn from him, so why was it like poking a hornet's nest, with people hidden everywhere?
Lu Xingye couldn't care about the sharp pain on his face, scrambling away from that dangerous bathroom.
"Nowhere left to hide! Only one place left!"
He looked at Jiang You's huge double bed, gritted his teeth, and with a super smooth sliding tackle, dashed into the shadows under the bed!
"Whoosh!"
Lu Xingye's body had just slid under the bed.
"Hmm?"
He suddenly felt his foot kick something.
