The sudden appearance of Arthur shocked Wu Daojun.
His face turned bright red, and his long eyelashes kept fluttering under the tension.
Upon seeing this, Arthur smiled slightly and sat beside him and handed over a bottle of iced black tea, and said, "Thank you for the watermelon drink. I don't know what you like to drink, so I just took a bottle."
"I… I… It's okay!"
After receiving the iced black tea and finished speaking, Wu Daojun looked quite exhausted.
Arthur raised his eyebrows and wondered if he was nervous or stuttering, so he asked, "Are you nervous?"
"A…a…little!"
It was not until this time that Arthur was sure that he really stutters and it seems very serious and makes it extremely difficult for him to communicate normally.
Sure enough, you cannot have it all.
Wu Daojun has an outstanding appearance, but he has some serious flaws.
Thinking of this, Arthur asked softly: "Is it serious?"
Wu Daojun knew what Arthur was thinking and so he nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
"It's okay. Now the medical technology is very advanced. As long as you actively undergo treatment, you should be healed completely."
Arthur comforted.
Hearing this, Wu Daojun shook his head and said: "No…No…No…"
After speaking, Daojun took out his mobile phone in a hurry.
It seems that because of his frequent typing, he is very fast. In just a few seconds, he was able to type a long line of words.
After typing, Wu Daojun handed him the phone.
Arthur looked at Daojun's response which read as: "It's useless. I have congenital stuttering. The doctor said that my brain, language, and nervous system are dysfunctional at birth, and there is no way to cure my condition."
After reading this, Arthur didn't know what to say. It seems that whatever he says might not make any difference.
'Comfort him?'
'Encourage him?'
'Come on. He may not need it.'
'Moreover, he has the courage to approach me and give me some drinks even if others will see. It only goes to show that he is a brave person in his own right.'
So, Arthur changed the subject: "Why did you think of giving me drinks?"
Daojun's handsome face blushed again. After taking his phone, he typed shyly which read as: "Because you look good when you smile!"
Seeing such a big boy acting so shy as such, Arthur felt a critical blow of Cupid arrow had pierced his little heart.
He had to resist the strong urge to pinch those blushing cheeks.
"Thank you!" That's all Arthur could mutter at this moment.
Arthur can fully understand Wu Daojun's condition.
He has congenital stuttering, after all, which makes it difficult for him to communicate normally with other people. This also makes him inevitably sensitive and introverted.
Arthur looked around at the small groups of people around and said, "In fact, they don't hate you. It's just that it is just the beginning of the school year and it is not easy to be familiar with each other. After some time, they can understand you and will accept you."
Wu Daojun nodded and typed his reply once more: "It's because of me. I always shook my head and nodded, so they are a bit reluctant to even approach me."
Arthur understood immediately.
Wu Daojun stutters too severely. So in order to express himself properly, he would always just nod or shake his head instead of talking.
And so this kind of behavior was misunderstood by everyone who tried to talk to him. They are not aware of his condition and so they thought that he was very cold and disdainful.
But when they come to learn about the truth, plus the help of Arthur, Wu Daojun can surely get along with the other classmates and find his own circle of friends.
"Thank you for the watermelon drink. I will go back now!"
Arthur then stood up and left with some thoughts.
Seeing Arthur leaving, Wu Daojun rubbed his hair again in annoyance.
He forgot to ask his name again!
Little milk dog Daojun could only encourage himself to be brave next time.
'Come on, Daojun, fighting!'
...
Returning to the shade where he and his friends were resting, Wang Zejing leaned forward, winked his eyes, and said, "What are you guys whispering with each other? Your little brother? Are you trying to subdue that guy?"
"He came to offer me a drink. Of course, I should say a word or two to thank him."
"That guy kept blushing besides you. I thought he even had some intentions towards you, boss!"
Arthur glanced at Wang Zejing for a moment and said calmly: "I actually have a lover already!"
"You have a girlfriend?" Wang Zejing seemed surprised and extremely excited upon hearing that, thinking Arthur already had a girlfriend.
Arthur of course would not correct his misunderstanding. He only looked at him strangely and raised his eyebrows and asked. "I do have a lover? Why are you looking so excited?"
Wang Zejing smiled and said, "Hey, without Brother Arthur as a strong competitor, wouldn't I be able to become famous in school?!"
Arthur was taken aback yet he smiled and said: "Okay Lao Wang, you really look at things from a different angle!"
After a while,
"All the Department of Finance, gather!"
The fifteen minutes had passed and with the instructor's shout, everyone stood up and walked reluctantly out of the shades of the trees and back to the school grounds.
