Chapter 99: Enemy or Friend?

I don't know why, but every time I see Gu Lei coming to Cheng Xiaoyu to ask questions, I feel a strange feeling in my heart.

I can tell you exactly what it is like, but in short, I feel very uncomfortable and want to hit someone.

But seeing that Cheng Xiaoyu didn't seem to be disgusted with this shy boy, I was helpless.

It's true that I protect Cheng Xiaoyu, but I won't interfere in her life. If I did, it would be no different from the previous bodyguards that she was extremely repelled by.

She has the right to make friends and get to know people on her own, and others can approach her as long as she wants, unless they want to hurt her.

Therefore, even if I feel uncomfortable, I have no right to say anything about Gu Lei's behavior unless Cheng Xiaoyu asks me to take action.

Every time I look at him, the one who responds to me is always Gu Lei, with a shy face that looks harmless to humans and animals.

I don’t know if it was because he was too introverted, which gave me the illusion that this guy was pretending on purpose. But if that was really the case, how could a teenage student be so scheming? His purpose was also

What?

Of course, this thought was just a momentary thought that flashed through my mind, but this did not prevent me from being wary of him.

"Hey, new guy, come on out." During the break, two boys patted Gu Lei's desk.

I know these two people. They are the younger brothers of Wang Wen, who is the first grader. They also tried to cause trouble for me when I first came here, but after I cleaned up Zhou Shanshan's cousin Heihu and his group, they never bothered me again.

I'm in trouble.

But just because you don’t dare to mess with me doesn’t mean you don’t dare to mess with others.

Now that a newcomer like Gu Lei has arrived, who seems to be honest but also very weak, it is not surprising that Wang Wen and his group are ready to make another move.

After all, there are a few families who come here who know all about them. Just extorting some pocket money is enough for Wang Wen and his gang to spend a lot of money.

After seeing the two of them, Gu Lei visibly paused, then stood up and followed the two of them out obediently.

During this period, I kept staring into Gu Lei's eyes, and what I saw was indeed the confusion and fear that an ordinary person should have.

Is it my own illusion? Is there really no problem with Gu Lei?

I asked myself again and again in my heart.

I pressed my temples and warned myself not to be blinded by jealousy and wrongly blame good people.

At this moment, Wang Wen and his two men just took Gu Lei out of the classroom.

Although I had known Wang Wen's tactics, I still used my spiritual sense to 'watch' their every move.

I saw Gu Lei being taken to a deserted staircase by Wang Wen and others.

This place is very remote, and there are some debris piled up in the corner, covered with dust. It can be seen that even the school cleaners don't come here often.

"Classmate, let's borrow some money and spend it." Wang Wenpi pushed Gu Lei into the corner with a smile, one of his subordinates followed him and smiled evilly, and the other one was responsible for looking after him.

Wang Wen took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, and his subordinates quickly lit it for him, looking like a dark and sophisticated boss.

When Gu Lei saw this posture, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that Wang Wen was collecting protection money from him. He was already weak and timid, but now he was even more nervous. His head was so low that he almost buried it in his chest, and his palms were wet.

Sweated.

I smiled.

I want to see how you deal with it.

To be honest, I am very curious about this weak boy. Whether his weakness is pretended or real, I want to see what he will do when faced with Wang Wen and others' practice of collecting protection money.

Do.

Sure enough, as if he knew what I was thinking, when Wang Wen saw Gu Lei facing his strong "borrowing money", not only did he not say anything, but he lowered his head, feeling a little annoyed.

I originally thought Wang Wen was a scheming person, because after seeing me take care of the Black Tigers, he very rationally chose not to provoke me again.

From this we can see that he is a person who knows how to assess the situation.

But he is a student after all, and when he sees me showing strength, he might be concerned about it, because this is something that is obvious.

But when he met a weak person like Gu Lei, he couldn't remain patient, because in his opinion, such a person must be easy to bully, and he would be so cowardly because he has no background.

So when he saw that Gu Lei lowered his head in fear, but ignored him at all, Wang Wen was both angry and proud.

Of course, he was angry because Gu Lei dared to ignore him. He was proud of Gu Lei's fear of him, which made him very satisfied. After all, Wang Wen and his group were not short of money at all, and they only collected protection fees to show their hegemony.

After spending so many days in this school, I naturally know some things that I should know or shouldn't know.

"Fuck your grandma, how dare you ignore me?" Wang Wen used the topic as a pretext, and the smile on his face suddenly turned into anger, and he went up and grabbed Gu Lei's collar.

This is an old trick of Wang Wen and his group. They don't attack directly, but threaten them first. If they can be frightened, it's best. They get something for nothing. If they don't frighten their opponents, it won't be too late.

Sure enough, this move was not very useful for the weak Gu Lei. Even though he lowered his head and couldn't see Wang Wen's face, he was instantly frightened when he heard Wang Wen's angry and gloomy voice.

He reached into his pocket and took out a wad of money, about four to five thousand, and handed it to Wang Wen tremblingly.

"Here, here you go..."

Seeing the money handed over by Gu Lei, Wang Wen instantly became happy. He took the money and reached out to pat Gu Lei's face.

"You're so good, you can follow Brother Wen from now on." After saying that, he blew a puff of smoke at Gu Lei and left with his men with satisfaction.

Gu Lei, on the other hand, said this sentence from the beginning to the end. It was not until Wang Wen and the others walked away that he raised his head in shock and looked in the direction where Wang Wen and others disappeared.

I had been paying attention to all this and thought it was over.

Suddenly, the corners of Gu Lei's mouth seemed to raise upwards, and a hint of cunningness flashed in his eyes. His aura changed in vain, and he was completely different from the weak one just now.

Then he returned to his usual appearance, timid and cautious.

Is this an illusion? Impossible. If it were my eyes, I might doubt it, but now I am observing with my spiritual sense, so there is definitely nothing wrong.

So, what do you want to do, my lovely new classmate?

I withdrew my spiritual consciousness and flipped through the boring book as if nothing had happened. The solemnity I had inadvertently revealed disappeared in an instant, and my face regained its cynical calmness.

If you want to play, then I'll play with you, but I don't know whether your goal is me and Cheng Xiaoyu, or something else, whether it's an enemy or a friend?

After Wang and Wen received the protection money from Gu Lei, they went to the toilet, probably to drain the waste water. However, Gu Lei walked into the classroom with his head lowered and a look of reluctance but helplessness.

Sitting in the seat at the back of him, silent, he looked like a vulnerable group being bullied by bullies but unable to resist.

If I hadn't just 'witnessed' everything with my spiritual consciousness, I almost would have believed it.

What is your purpose?

To be honest, I really don't want to be an enemy of such an unpredictable person.

However, if you are trying to trick me, then go ahead. If you just have extraordinary endurance, it is not enough. I hope you have other means.

"Are you okay?" Cheng Xiaoyu also noticed the aggrieved look on Gu Lei's face and took the initiative to talk to this boy who had never said a word to him in the class except for her.

Seeing that Wang Wen's men called Gu Lei out, she naturally knew the virtues of Wang Wen and his group, and what she liked to do most was to bully newcomers.

Gu Lei shook his head and said nothing.

Cheng Xiaoyu stopped asking and turned around.

How can you pretend!
