Chapter 29: Prey, Is That Really the Case?

Early the next morning, Xia Xu felt a little cough, "Maybe it's because I went back too late last night, and I caught a little cold." Muttering to himself, he put down his bag. Before class, I lay on my stomach in my seat for a while.

But fortunately, the matter of the novel's revision of film and television has been almost negotiated, and the contract has been signed. The hard work during this period of time can finally have a big reward. But I should have been happy to celebrate, but I turned out to be a precursor to a cold today.

Xia Xu struggled to raise his head and saw Wang Yunjia passing by him.

Seeing her sluggish look, she asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

"Well, it seems like a little cold, but it's okay, just stick to it. Xia Xu smiled hard.

Wang Yunjia who watched it was full of distress. "Let's lie down a little longer. If you really can't do it, ask for leave and go back to have a good rest, don't hold on. He instructed uneasily.

"Well, it's okay, thank you Yunjia, don't worry. Xia Xu rubbed his eyes and replied weakly.

"Xiao Su, let's lie down for a while. The teacher is coming, I call you. Lin Jiajia on the side gently put her hand on her shoulder, and when she saw her somewhat red face, she was also very worried, wouldn't she have a fever?"

"No...... It was fine when I left in the morning, but I don't know what's going on at this time, and I'm a little confused. It doesn't matter, I'll just lie down for a while. After Xia Xu finished speaking, he squinted his eyes and lay on the table with a look of collapse.

The conversation of several people had already reached the ears of Xue Ziyang, who was sitting next to the door.

"Is it a cold?" Xue Ziyang asked in his heart. Restlessly fiddling with the pen in his hand, he wanted to continue reading, but he couldn't concentrate.

And Wang Yunjia on the side would turn his head to glance at Xia Xu's direction whenever he had the opportunity, worried about whether she was sick or not.

Xia Xu unconsciously turned his face sideways, and saw that Du Ke's position next to him was empty, which seemed to be expected, and slowly turned his head.

I finally got through the first self-study class, but I obviously felt a little hot in my body. Touching the door of my head, it also started to get a little hot. In order to make it to the end of school, Xia Xu struggled to get up from his seat and walked in the direction of the bathroom.

As soon as I arrived at the washroom, I couldn't wait to rush to the sink, turn on the faucet, and as soon as my slightly hot hands touched the cold water, I immediately felt a lot more comfortable.

Xia Xu dipped her hand in the water flowing down from the water pipe, and gently wiped it on her forehead, feeling a little energetic.

Turning around slowly, seeing Du Ke at the door standing there with a smile on his face, Xia Xu couldn't help but be stunned, since he said those words that doubted his identity, Xia Xu felt that he would be inexplicably nervous as soon as he saw him.

He quickly lowered his head slightly, turned sideways, and was about to go out by his side, but was blocked by Du Ke's suddenly raised arm.

"Can I talk to you?" his smiling eyes seemed to be smeared with the temperature of the sun, and it was so warm that it was impossible to refuse.

"Do we have anything to talk about?" Xia Xu smiled wryly, the corners of her mouth pursed up on her feverish and reddish face, but it looked a little cute, so that Du Ke didn't realize that she was sick at all.

"You...... It's a bubble, right?" Du Ke asked word by word, saying that it was a question, but the tone was more like affirmation.

The moment the word "foam" came out of his mouth, Xia Xu's entire nerves were tensed, I don't know if it was the cause of the cold or the water just now was too cold, I just felt like I was frozen.

It was the first time she had heard someone ask her in front of her, "Are you a bubble?"

After a long time, Xia Xu coughed lightly a few times and squeezed out a sentence, "You are really good at joking." ”

And this sentence was just as he expected, Du Ke raised the corners of his mouth and smiled softly.

took out the receiver's earpiece from his pocket, and gently approached Xia Su, before Xia Su could react, he had gently brought the earpiece to his ear

Du Ke looked at her proudly, as if he was looking at a prey that was about to arrive, and did not forget to gently play with her watery and somewhat messy bangs. Strong and with a hint of ambiguous gaze, Xia Xu was a little uncomfortable.

And this scene, Xue Ziyang, who happened to be walked to the door and was hesitating whether to go in to see if Xia Xu was okay, saw it.

Although he didn't hear what they were talking about, but seeing the scene where Du Ke approached Xia Xu and gently gave her bangs, Xue Ziyang only felt that something seemed to be being pinched hard in his chest.

Or turned around and left.

Xia Xu heard the content of his conversation last night on the novel, film and television adaptation meeting coming from the earpiece, which was clear and complete. The most important thing is that when he came out of the company with Sun Zuo in the car, he and a board member talked about some of the company's internal business secrets.

At that moment, Xia Xu's whole person seemed to be frozen, and he stood there in a daze......

Xue Ziyang, who returned to his seat, was a little puzzled and thought about the relationship between Xia Xu and Du Ke. His eyes puzzled, and he skimmed Du Ke's position.

After a while, Xia Xu entered the house with a worried face. The whole person is like having lost his heart.

"Are you feeling better?" asked Lin Jiajia uneasily. Xia Xu didn't hear Lin Jiajia's question at all, slowly sat down in the seat, and then lay on the table and frowned, entangled.

"What's wrong? Lin Jiajia shook her gently.

Xia Xu came back to his senses at this time, "Ah, it's okay, haha, I feel better." Reluctantly, he moved the corners of his mouth and replied to Lin Jiajia a few words.

Lin Jiajia looked at her with some doubts, so she had to cover the coat behind her, and got up and went out.

The recording that Du Ke had listened to himself in the bathroom just now, and the words he said in his ear, kept echoing in Xia Xu's ears and in his head like a spell......

"My purpose is very simple, that is, I hope you can sign a contract with our company, you should understand that the content of this recording is not only about you but also about the Sun family's company, if you put it on the Internet, I am afraid it will have a very unexpected result. ”

"You...... You hit the bugging?" Xia Xu asked angrily.

"I'm really sorry, I can't help it. Du Ke hooked the corners of his mouth, measured his head, and reached out to take off the "receiver" that was still pinned under Xia Xu's clothes.

Xia Xu bit his lip angrily, looked at the "paper clip" in his hand, and just wanted to open his mouth to scold him for being despicable, but before he could make a sound, Du Ke raised his hand as expected, and blocked her soft lips with his index finger.

The corners of his mouth raised at her with a wicked smile, "I'll wait for your reply after school late." Then he turned around and left.

He's always like this, with a look that is very familiar to you and very strange, and a bright and innocent smile.

Looking at Du Ke's back, Xia Xu bit her lip tightly, and tears couldn't help but roll in her eyes.

I went back too late last night, and I hadn't told Sen Sen and Sun Zuo about Du Ke's transfer to Huaxun. What should we do with his threats now? Do you really want to agree to him? It is really unconvincing to use such despicable means. The more Xia Xu thought about it, the more angry he became, even if he knew, what could he do?

After all, the cooling of the cold water was only temporary, I don't know if it was because of the cold and fever, or because it was affected by Du Ke's words and the bugging device, Xia Xu only felt dizzy even more, and his body was a little chilly that could not be suppressed.

I couldn't help but sit up and rub my face, rubbing my hands vigorously under the seat, wanting to warm up.

Suddenly, I inadvertently caught a glimpse of a box of cold medicine in my seat.

"This ......?" Xia Xu took the cold medicine in his hand suspiciously, and raised his eyes to look around.

"Who put it here?" Xia Xu muttered to herself. I thought it was Lin Jiajia.

I just wanted to open it, but I saw a note posted on the back of the medicine box, on which was a line of small words: Hurry up and eat, if the fever does not subside, ask for leave to go to the school hospital for an injection.

No bylines were left. Looking at the font, Xia Xu really couldn't recognize who wrote it, but he was sure that his guess just now was wrong, and this medicine was not put by Lin Jiajia.

Although I usually don't pay much attention to the handwriting of other people, I can at least be sure that this is definitely not Lin Jiajia's handwriting. Because of her handwriting, Xia Xu still recognizes it.

It's so uncomfortable, no matter how much it is, let's eat it first. Xia Xu thought to herself.

I unscrewed the lid of the water cup, read the instructions, took out a few pills, and took them with water.

As soon as I finished taking the medicine, I saw that Du Ke entered the door with a smiling appearance, and it was almost time for class, and Lin Jiajia also ran in after him.

Xia Xu quickly lowered his head, trying to avoid his gaze.

Du Ke sat down in his seat slowly, glanced at the side and deliberately turned his head sideways, leaving only the back of his head for Xia Xu.

He smiled softly, revealing a wicked smile.
