Chereads / Death For Life / Chapter 18 - First Encounter With Female Lead

Chapter 18 - First Encounter With Female Lead

Xu Lei shuddered under his gloomy gaze. It has been a long time since he has seen such a dreadful expression on his boss face.

"That woman hasn't given up yet!" Han Ying harsh voice ended in anger. He was leaking murderous intention.

How dare she try to harm his son!

He spent so many years coaxing his son and his son finally opened his heart to him. What would he do if all that would go to naught because of that woman's stupidity?

Who gave her the rights to harm him!?

Xu Lei gulped and kept quiet knowing that he didn't need to reply. His boss undoubtedly knew what was happening to his son, how could he not when he loved his son so much.

Han Ying slammed his hands on the table feeling ridiculous. He wanted to skin alive that woman. Who did she think she was, she was seeking death.

"Prepare the car" Han Ying cold gaze rested upon his clenched fist preparing himself to teach a good lesson to that meddlesome woman.

Xu Lei nodded his head and scurried out of the office. He cheered inside his head for thinking such an awesome idea.

He wanted to laugh just thinking about the expression the woman was going to have, confronting such a dangerous boss.

He should have reported it way earlier if he knew that something like this would have happened.

Li slumped in his seats thinking that his life was very monotonous and there was no fun.

He didn't know what medicine his dear mother consumed, she was no longer attempting to take his life.

No poison, No killers and no feuds

He felt that life was too bland.

He nudged the top student beside him who was attentively listening to the teacher.

"Qi Cheng, I'm bored~" Li lazily drawled out with an expressionless face.

Qi Cheng's mouth twitched looking at his seatmate. He never knew that Li could talk so much. He had already listened to the same sentence more than five times in the same period.

He didn't know why he thought that Li was a serious person before.

"You can sleep" Qi Cheng advised him still not understanding how Li could stay at the top and score so high with such a lazy personality.

Li knocked his hand on his seatmate's head softly and made a barren expression.

"I know what you're thinking, don't think about it."

"I'm just so smart that I don't need to study" Li answered as if he had heard his seatmate's thoughts.

Qi Cheng covered his mouth with his hand hoping to suppress the laughter that was bubbling out threateningly.

"Ah, You smiled" Li looked at his seatmate in interest. He was starting to notice that Qi Cheng laughed more often in front of him.

Qi Cheng straightened his lips and the slight curve disappeared in an instant.

"What, you don't want to smile in front of me anymore?" Li teased the youth who was trying to maintain his usual expressionless face.

Qi Cheng looked at Li's playful expression and made a face "It costs money"

"Woah" Li acted as if he was stunned

"This young master has nothing but looks and money" Li circled his finger in the air and pointed at himself at the end "Say the price"

Qu Cheng looked at his friend and rolled his eyes never knowing that Li could be so narcissistic.

"You rolled your eyes"

Qi Cheng coughed and looked at Li weirdly "You don't have to say everything I do"

"But It so rare for you to show so much emotion on your face."

"I want to take your picture"

Qi Cheng snickered at him. He realized that having Li around was quite fun. He quietly bowed his head down when the teacher's gaze swept toward him.

The teacher looked at the two students whispering to each other with scrutiny. He dismissed it when he saw that they were both top students.

Li leaned on his hand and suddenly shifted forward reducing the distance between them.

"I truly want to take your picture when you are smiling"

Qi Cheng stared at the handsome face which was abruptly shoved right before his face. He took in a short trembling breath.

Qi Cheng had a strange feeling but it disappeared as soon as it appeared.

Qi Cheng placed his hand on the large face and pushed it away with some irritation.

"You can take it if you want"

Li widened his eyes feeling surprised. He didn't think that Qi Cheng would allow him to take pictures of him. He felt quite pleased when he realized that his seatmate treated him differently from others.

"But I want yours in return"

Li nodded his head understanding after all that it would be fair.

He took out his cellphone in anticipation but it was a bit late as the bell rang.

"Go together?" Li asked as soon as the bell rang signalling the end of the boring period.

Qi Cheng hesitated to go with him. He was short on money and he didn't want to waste them on food.

He thought it was alright to remain hungry for an afternoon, it would be of no harm to him.

"Li Come on, the line is going to be lengthy if we delay any more time" Feiqun jumped out of his seat and hurriedly made his way toward his friend.

Li got up and pulled his stubborn seatmate along with him. "My treat"

Qi Cheng didn't have a chance to refuse, he was already dragged out of the classroom.

The cafeteria grew silent when the student noticed that the top two students were coming together.

The students were surprised to see that Qi Cheng also came to the cafeteria, it was no secret that the top student didn't like to go to the cafeteria.

Xu Feiqun combed his hair with his fingers and upheld his best posture and smugly walked beside the top students enjoying the limelight placed on them.

"What's with you?" Li eyed his busy friend who was maintaining his looks.

"Showing off my good looks" Feiqun stated dramatically.

"Ah, is it?" Li replied indifferently.

Xu Feiqun flared up when he saw his friend lacked interest in his good looks.

"I am too handsome to care about your indifference."

"Hmph."

Qi Cheng suddenly stopped and seriously looked at the youngster who was flaunting his looks.

"Your perception of handsome is different from ours"

Xu Feiqun froze stunned and cried out after a while. "Qi Cheng, You have changed"

"It's not promising to sit with Li"

"You are starting to become just like him"

Li laughed out loud finding his reaction hilarious while Qi Cheng shrugged it off.

Xu Feiqun huffed and got ahead on line. He was starving after disputing with two top students who suited each other.

Li pulled Feiqun out and got in instead along with Qi Cheng.

Feiqun cried out on his heart and cursed thousand times at his merciless boss. He didn't want to serve him any longer. He was so miserable.

The three of them found a quiet corner and settled down.

"Wow, I didn't expect to see the school flower here" Feiqun whistled lowly looking at a delicate girl who was entering the cafeteria with her friends.

Li looked up and saw the girl who his idiotic friend was looking at.

She had long brown hair with slight curls at the end. She had a small face and delicate features. Her body was petite awakening others desire to protect her. She was worthy of having the title of school beauty.

Li cast away his gaze nonchalantly. He instantly knew that she was the female lead of this trashy novel world.

Li ate his lunch in a fast pace but it still looked elegant from others view.

Xu Feiqun looked at Li jealously but didn't dare to say anything knowing that he would only suffer in the end while Qi Cheng was solely focused on his food.

"Classmate, Can I talk to you for a moment?" A melodious sound disturbed their easy-going atmosphere.

Qi Cheng and Xu Feiqun stopped altogether and looked at her but the girl's eyes were glued to Li. However, Li was still eating calmly as if he hadn't heard her.

The girl cleared her throat and repeated "Han Zhuoli, Can I talk to you for a moment?"

Li suspected that he was hearing wrong but he stopped his moving hands and looked at the shy girl in front of him.

What the hell was the female lead doing when the male lead was just right beside him!?
