I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 405 We can be good friends...

"here it is..."

Bai Cang was stunned for a moment; the scene before him was somewhat strange...

It looks like... a classroom?

Wasn't I just... protecting Yu Lingxue?

Am I dead? Is this heaven?

"No way...do you have to go to school even if you're dead?"

Bai Cang couldn't help but mutter a complaint, but when he looked down and saw the boy sitting at the desk in front of him, he was stunned for a moment...

This looks like... myself?

Is this me when I first entered high school? Why can I see my past self?

Bai Cang looked around and found the classroom full of students, and almost all of them were familiar faces...

This... seems to be the classroom I used to have when I first started high school...

Can't they see themselves?

Are you dreaming?

Just as Bai Cang was wondering, he suddenly caught sight of the girl sitting at the desk in front of him, intently writing something...

He knew this girl all too well...

It's just Yu Lingxue...

They were sitting at adjacent desks back then.

"Okay, students, now write down on paper who your favorite person and who your least favorite person are, and don't let others see it."

The teacher stood at the front of the class, speaking to the students below. Then, everyone lowered their heads and began writing on their papers...

Bai Cang stood beside his high school self and Yu Lingxue, watching them write their names on a piece of paper...

Bai Cang looked at Yu Lingxue's paper; she had written "Mom" next to her favorite person...

Then, on the page of the person he disliked most, he wrote "Bai Cang"...

"Uh..." Bai Cang stood there, his lips twitching, thinking that this result was really not unexpected.

He looked at his paper and wrote down the name of someone he used to hate...

I wrote this at the place of my favorite person...

Uh... a boy's name.

"Hey! Look! Bai Cang wrote that his favorite person is the class monitor! Hahaha..."

Just then, the boy sitting behind him suddenly pointed at Bai Cang's paper and shouted loudly, making sure the whole class could hear...

Because their class monitor is a boy.

The whole class burst into laughter, and the class monitor's face turned green; he looked extremely embarrassed...

Yu Lingxue also turned around and glanced at him, her face showing disgust and disdain...

He seemed unmoved, because something was written on the back of the paper as well...

Bai Cang turned the paper over; on the back was written, "My favorite person:"

[The Ordinary Yu Lingxue]...

"Huh? I wrote something like this?"

Bai Cang stood there, staring at the words written on his paper, and was momentarily stunned...

How come he doesn't remember this?

What does "ordinary Yu Lingxue" mean? Does it mean she's just an ordinary person? Does it mean she has absolutely nothing to do with Jun Heng?

That should be the meaning...

"Okay, next, write down your wishes."

Bai Cang expressed great interest in this, because what he had written at the time seemed to be about becoming the vice president of Junheng or something...

He still doesn't know what Yu Lingxue wrote.

Bai Cang approached Yu Lingxue, lowered his head, and looked at her paper, curious about what wish she would write down.

I guess he wants to become Junheng's vice president, right?

But when Bai Cang saw what Yu Lingxue had written on the paper, he suddenly froze, a look of surprise on his face...

"[If possible, I hope Bai Cang and I aren't competitors; we can be good friends...]"

"!!"

Bai Cang suddenly shifted his consciousness, and the things before him instantly became both blurry and clear...

When he regained consciousness and saw the scene before him clearly, it seemed to have changed.

Is he in...a hospital?

He saw a pristine white ceiling, and memories gradually surfaced. He seemed to have been protecting Yu Lingxue... and then Yan Lingwen knocked him unconscious...

What happened after that? Did Zhou Heng and the others arrive in time?

He knew that he couldn't possibly get Yu Lingxue out of their territory unscathed on his own; they simply couldn't leave their territory.

He simply went there first, sending a message to Zhou Heng and the others in advance, and also arranged for thugs to be brought to his own home.

He protected Yu Lingxue and stalled for time, probably until Zhou Heng and the others arrived...

Right now, he only feels a terrible headache, and there's no part of his body that doesn't hurt. He can't move at all; any movement will cause pain...

"Eh?"

Just then, Bai Cang felt something pressing down on him...

He strained to look down, and when he saw it, his eyes widened in shock...

He saw that Yu Lingxue was lying on top of him, seemingly asleep...

Bai Cang forced a smile and muttered under his breath, "He actually slept on top of the injured person, really..."

"But... I'm glad you're alright."

Bai Cang seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, then closed his eyes; he could finally rest peacefully...

"Click——"

Just then, Bai Cang heard the ward door open. He didn't fully open his eyes, but only cracked them open to look at the doorway.

They saw Zhou Heng and Tang Zhi walk in from outside...

Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, Yu Lingxue immediately woke up, sat up, and looked towards the door of the ward.

Only then did Bai Cang notice that Yu Lingxue seemed to have dark circles under her eyes and was not in good condition, as if she hadn't rested well.

"You've arrived..."

Yu Lingxue lowered her voice and spoke very softly, glancing cautiously at Bai Cang.

Finding Bai Cang still with his eyes closed, he sighed helplessly...

"Still not awake? It's been two days... Didn't the doctor say he was fine? He should be awake by now, right?"

The two walked to the bedside and looked at Bai Cang on the bed. Zhou Heng muttered in confusion.

At this moment, Bai Cang didn't know whether he should open his eyes or not. He had just woken up, but he didn't expect that he had been unconscious for two days.

Tang Zhi crossed her arms, shook her head, and sighed:

"This guy is really something... his skull is harder than a normal person's... a normal person would probably be in a vegetative state after being hit like that, but he only has a concussion..."

Bai Cang was shocked. So he had been beaten into a concussion...?

No wonder my dream felt so real, like I was reborn. I guess it was because I got beaten up...

Tang Zhi gently patted Yu Lingxue's shoulder and said:

“Let’s stay here for a while. You should go and rest. You’ve been taking care of him non-stop for two days now. You’re injured too, so don’t overwork yourself.”
