Trapped in a Typical Idol Drama - Chapter 80 - Short (1)

Chapter 80: Short (1)

Once you tell a lie, you’ll have to keep telling lies to keep the story going for your lie at the very start.

“What did you lose?” Ye Xi asked.

Wei Shenglan thought about it for a moment and said, “My keys.”

“When did you notice that you lost them?”

“Uh…Just now, about ten minutes ago.”

“Do you know where you lost them?”

“It should be around here.”

Ye Xi looked around the place. It was empty all around them. Even though the path was wide, they were the only two people on it. The lights from the street lights had an orange hue to it, and it looked a little weird when it illuminated the trees on the side.

Most importantly, this place is really quiet.

Wei Shenglan came closer to Ye Xi little by little and asked, “It’s a bit dreary here. Are you scared?”

Ye Xi looked at him. His expression was a little stiff.

Usually, people who asked if others were scared were generally scared themselves, but they’ll try to push it on someone else because they’re afraid of being found out.

Understandable.

Ye Xi understood this very well in her heart, and she was very gentle with him.

She had also inched a little closer to Wei Shenglan and said, “Yeah, I’m scared.”

Wei Shenglan said almost instinctively, “I’m not scared, okay? I’m just worried that you might be.”

Usually, people who are very scared but don’t want to show it would always try to show people that they’re not scared, even if nobody asked.

What’s more, our dear school idol has even said he’s worried about other people, so how scared is he really?

Ye Xi couldn’t help but feel her heart go soft. She reached a hand out to his arm and said, “Yeah, I know you’re not scared, I really do.”

Wei Shenglan felt hurt by her double negative, cause that just meant it was positive. But after he saw Ye Xi put her hand on his arm, he decided not to correct the misunderstanding she had.

Out of the possibility that Mr. School Idol may be scared, Ye Xi pulled his arm and walked over to one of the small trees on the side of the road while explaining, “When it comes to losing things like keys in places like these, there’s a possibility they might be kicked to places like these when they were walking and not paying attention. Also, I just took a quick glance, and there are no keys on the road. So, it’s more likely to be here.”

“Oh.” Wei Shenglan allowed Ye Xi to pull him under the tree.

“Don’t…uh, I’m scared. Can you walk with me?” Ye Xi nearly said something that might make him scared.

For boys like Mr. School Idol here who looked so proud of themselves, they’ll definitely get furious if they hear her.

Taking care of children really requires a lot of effort, huh?

Ye Xi felt inclined to sigh, but she was also inexplicably satisfied.

Wei Shenglan humphed.

Ye Xi laughed. She thought the school idol looked a bit cute. Then, she took out her phone, turned on the torch, and shined it towards the area nearest to them. Bit by bit, she moved it up and shone it behind the tree. Then, she made a catcall, and a cat pounced on her, causing Ye Xi to fall.

Shaking, Ye Xi lay on the ground and did not dare to move.

The black cat slapped away Ye Xi’s phone as if it was displeased with it, and her phone fell into a small puddle. After a small zapping noise, the light turned off.

Seeing this scene, Wei Shenglan was instantly furious.

This stupid cat actually dares to pounce on his Ye Xi?

Wei Shenglan crouched down and picked the cat up by the scruff of its neck. Ye Xi instantly felt like she had been saved and kept retreating backward. She could feel a pain at her arm from a scratch, but compared to the black cat, this pain was nothing!
