Incurable Pain | Chapter 4


“Such a pure girl, does she have a boyfriend?”


While pondering, Yu Luoyin heard Lu Ye next to him leap to ask.


“Heh, how would I know?”


Zhou Xin’s slender fingers pushed down the white-gold rimmed gla.s.ses resting on his high nose, “There shouldn’t be any. It’s said that she’s haughty and cold. She’s hard to chase.”


“Haughty and cold?”


Lu Ye scratched his head in puzzlement, “Her smile was quite gentle.”


With a raised eyebrow, Zhou Xin asked, “Do you want to chase her?”


“A little ……”


“Shut up.”


Yu Luoyin spoke coldly, interrupting them, “Let’s go back to cla.s.s.”


They didn’t know why his mood was suddenly bad, but it’s true that it was almost time for cla.s.s.


Lu Ye especially liked pure and beautiful girls. After going back to their cla.s.s he had been pestering Li Yuan to inquire about Bai Xunyin.


The two continued to talk nonsensically as they sat at the table in front of Yu Luoyin, and the sound of their conversations reverberated in his ears, causing his exquisite brows to knit slightly.


“Xin Suo was right. I helped you ask all the girls I know, Bai Xunyin is indeed quite hard to chase.”


“Tell me, how exactly is it hard to chase?”


“Do you know Li Chuanyun from second cla.s.s? He looked quite good and also studied well. It’s said that during the first year he chased her for several months, but the girl did not even choose to go out with him once.”


Li Chuanyun.


Hearing this name, Yu Luoyin raised his eyebrows lightly and smiled playfully.


“s.h.i.t, I still don’t believe in this evil.”


Hearing Li Yuan’s conclusion after his ‘investigation’, Lu Ye’s ‘desire to win’ was completely stirred up.


He eagerly announced his plan, “I’m going to try chasing after her.”


“Really?”


Li Yuan was a bit speechless, “She’s a mute and can’t speak. What’s the point of chasing after her?”


“It’s ok.”


Lu Ye was undoubtedly a face dog*, “It’s enough if she looks good.”


*T/N: “颜狗” has no resistance to all good-looking things


….


“Besides, didn’t you say that she was ostracized by Sheng Churan because she won the school flower position?”


Lu Ye fantasized, “Then with my appearance, wouldn’t it look like a knight with shining armor saving the little white flower?!”


“With your face, you’re still dreaming to be a knight?”


Li Yuan snorted in disapproval, “I think you’re more suited to be called a simp*.”


*T/N: “舔狗 ” figuratively refers to a person who flatters someone without regard to his own dignity


“F*ck, what are you talking about?!”


“The teacher is coming soon, you two be quiet.”


Zhou Xinsui who sat in the seat next to them gave a timely reminder. But he also couldn’t help but laugh.


A pair of amber-colored eyes looked at Lu Ye, “I bet you can’t catch up with her.”


“???”


Lu Ye’s eyes widened, “You’re also looking down on this young master too much, aren’t you?”


His words had just fallen, but before he could start a big fit Yu Luoyin at the back table kicked his stool-


“I’ll also bet on you…”


The broken hair on his forehead fell slightly in front of his eyes. His dark eyes clearly indicated that he was ‘watching a good show’ as he slowly uttered three words, “You can’t catch up with her.”


“……”


The soph.o.m.ores weren’t that bombarded with cla.s.ses yet, and students needed some ‘excitement’ in their rather boring school lives.


Seventeen or eighteen year old boys were generally compet.i.tive, and as soon as their cla.s.s ended at noon, Lu Ye really went to cla.s.s three to look for someone.


He moved fast and ran over to the cla.s.s, with most of the students still there. Lu Ye ignored the shocked eyes of the students in Cla.s.s Three, stood in the doorway, and searched for the figure of Bai Xunyin.


People innately remember things that were beautiful easier. So even if he had only seen Bai Xunyin’’s back profile, Lu Ye still had the confidence to recognize her.


“Lu Ye.”


As a result, after searching for a while and not finding the target, he instead ran into Sheng Churan who was going to have dinner with her cla.s.smates. The latter was a bit surprised to see him and asked fervently, “Why are you here? Where’s Yu Luoyin?”


“He went to have dinner.” Lu Ye glanced at her and said in a somewhat unserious manner.


When Sheng Churan heard this, she was a bit deflated and asked sullenly, “What are you doing in our cla.s.s?”


Lu Ye was still continuing to look in, “Looking for someone.”


Sheng Chula was puzzled, “Who are you looking for?”


“Bai Xunyin, isn’t she in your cla.s.s?”


Hearing Bai Xunyin’s name, Sheng Churan and the two girls next to her froze.


A moment later, Sheng Churan’s eyes flashed with a hint of haze. She bit her lip and asked, “What are you looking Bai Xunyin for?”


“…… Does it have anything to do with you?” Lu Ye was speechless and snorted.


Yu Luoyin didn’t like Sheng Churan, and was even annoyed with her pestering. The few of them naturally didn’t like her much either, so of course there was no need to give her a face.


Besides, they had just heard about Sheng Churan taking the lead in ostracizing Bai Xunyin earlier.


Sheng Churan froze, and her rage exploded, “What do you mean? What are you talking about?”


Lu Ye let out a ”hehe” sound and moved on, not bothering to pay attention to her.


He ignored Sheng Churan’s indignant figure and directly stepped into the cla.s.sroom of cla.s.s 3. His eyes swept around and finally caught the girl sitting in the corner.


Lu Ye’s eyes lit up and he immediately walked over.


Bai Xunyin was solving a physics problem, immersed in it. She suddenly felt a presence above her head, and a shadow was cast down on her test paper.


Somewhat unexpectedly, she looked up and was met with Lu Ye’s smiling eyes.


The boy was sunny and athletic. And when he smiled, the dimple on his left cheek was very obvious- but Bai Xunyin was sure she had never seen him before.


So what is he doing standing in front of my table?


Bai Xunyin blinked in bewilderment and looked at him with some confusion.


The young girl’s pair of eyes were as clear and round as a deer’s, making Lu Ye a little ‘shy’ to look at them.


“Cla.s.smate.”


Lu Ye rarely acted gentlemanly as he asked her with some poise, “Can you give me your Weibo account*?”


*T/N: Weibo is a Chinese microblogging website


……


Many students were secretly poking their heads to pay attention to their side and as soon as Lu Ye said this, even fools would know what it meant.


Of course, Bai Xunyin certainly knew that.


She froze, and her long eyelashes dropped somewhat helplessly. Then, she shook her head without hesitation.


Bai Xunyin’s white fingers picked up a pen and neatly wrote two words on a piece of draft paper.


Sorry.


It was the first time he was rejected so quickly and seriously, making Lu Ye a little confused.


Reminiscent of his previous experience with girls, thinking about how easy it was for him to get their contact information-


But now…


Amidst the crowd of spectators, Lu Ye felt really ashamed. But Bai Xunyin’s serious look inexplicably made him helpless and unable to get angry.


The deflated boy could only go back in defeat.


Looking at Bai Xunyin who had a ‘I want to solve the paper, do not disturb’ look, Lu Ye also had no face to continue.


He scratched his head awkwardly and muttered ‘I’ll also come to find you after school’ before running away, leaving Bai Xunyin very confused.


From start to finish, she didn’t even know the name of the boy who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.


Soon enough, though, Sheng Churan came over to talk to her.


“Bai Xunyin.”


She didn’t even go to eat. When she saw Lu Ye leave, she came over in front of Bai Xunyin’s table with a questioning look, “What did Lu Ye want with you?”


Oh, so that boy was called Lu Ye ah.


Bai Xunyin’s eyes moved slightly. In order to avoid Sheng Chula continuing to find trouble, she wrote three words on the paper.


[My Weibo number]


In fact, it has long been expected. But hearing that the party really admitted it, Sheng Churan still could not help but bite her lip in indignation.


Yu Luoyin’s circle of friends always had a nonchalant att.i.tude towards her.


But he came over to find Bai Xunyin, a little mute, to ask for her Weibo…….


Glaring at Bai Xunyin, Sheng Churan huffed and walked away.


“Hey, Bai Xunyin.”


Waiting for most of the people to leave the cla.s.sroom, Liu Yufu turned around to talk to Bai Xunyin. Her tone was a bit teasing, “Do you know that Lu Ye is Yu Luoyin’s friend? Yu Luoyin- he’s the one that Sheng Churan likes, ah.”


Bai Xunyin froze in shock, the pen in her hand fell on the table.


Liu Yufu glanced at her and asked her in a low voice, “Does he like you? Do you want to be with him?”


Bai Xunyin hadn’t really expected Liu Yufu to be such a gossipy girl. She couldn’t help but smile as she shook her head.


The three words ‘falling in love’ never appeared in her plans.


It’s just that Bai Xunyin did not expect Lu Ye, this boy who wanted to chase her, was really full of persistence.


He delivered her breakfast and lunch, always looked for her after school, and persistently asked for her contact information……


It was the typical way high school boys curry favor with girls.


But the whole third cla.s.s knew about it.


Worse, other cla.s.ses have also heard about it – For high school students, their most favorite pastime was to gossip.


Every time she saw Lu Ye, Bai Xunyin wrote ‘I’m sorry’, ‘I don’t intend to fall in love’, ‘can you stay away from me’ on her draft paper, all to no avail.


She couldn’t help but have a big headache.


Luckily, after a month pa.s.sed by, Lu Ye finally seemed close to giving up.


He hadn’t really liked Bai Xunyin that much, as it all just started when he took an interest in her looks.


But time after time, he was completely rejected by this girl. It was the first time he got to experience this, so Lu Ye couldn’t help but feel a little frustrated.


“So you’re really that hard to chase.”


One night, after school ended, Lu Ye muttered depressedly as he followed behind Bai Xunyin’s bicycle.


He looked at the girl’s slender back and took a few steps and rushed forward to block her way.


Facing Bai Xunyin’s emotionless eyes, Lu Ye gritted his teeth and asked as if exhausting every bit of effort left in him, “Bai Xunyin, you really don’t like me, ah? Don’t like me at all?”


Bai Xunyin nodded without hesitation.


“……”


“d.a.m.n, Laozi* really lost to you.”


*T/N: “老子” A more arrogant way of referring to oneself


Lu Ye lowered his head and whispered. After a long time, he let out a breath and helplessly looked up at her as he said, “Alright then, I won’t pester you from tomorrow onwards.”


When he finished speaking, he saw Bai Xunyin’s eyes light up.


“……”


Lu Ye finally 100% confirmed that this girl was completely different from other girls-


She didn’t play hard to get.


She clearly did not like him.


Lu Ye decided to make his final ‘detour’.


“This is the first time I’ve seen a girl with such a personality like you.”


Lu Ye couldn’t help but smile. He helped Bai Xunyin push her bicycle like a gentleman, “Then can we be friends? What’s your Weibo account?.”


However, Bai Xunyin understood that this ‘let’s be friends’ phrase was still an excuse. So, she still smiled as she shook her head.


This is good.


Lu Ye laughed helplessly, but finally really cut off all his delusional thoughts.


“It’s the first time I’ve seen a girl who closes herself off so much that she doesn’t even give someone a chance to be her friend.”


That evening, while he was having dinner with a few buddies, Lu Ye suffered unsurprisingly from their ridicule as he ‘officially’ declared his failure in chasing someone.


He was depressed, but also could not help but bite the skewer in anger, “You guys just want to ridicule my face, huh? But before, which girl did not take the initiative to ask me for my contact information?”


“As a result, this Bai Xunyin, who I chased for over half a month, didn’t even send me her Weibo account!”


“Buddy, I’m really convinced by now. I understand why Li Chuanyun couldn’t chase her, surely I also wouldn’t be able to continue.”


Bai Xunyin wasn’t actually haughty and cold, but she was really hard to pursue.


She was always gentle and soft, but she isolated herself from the people around her, making it difficult to approach her.


Even if he got rejected, it felt like he was punching on cotton. Lu Ye could not even bring himself to get annoyed and angry.


But, Lu Ye had to admit that the ‘impulsive feeling’ that he felt when he was attracted to her face at the beginning ceased to exist.


Bai Xunyin, he really couldn’t handle it.


“Tsk, don’t make excuses, you just can’t do it.”


Li Yuan laughed on the side, and couldn’t help but ridicule him more, “Before, you boasted that you’d steal her heart, but after half a month you haven’t even got her WeChat account.”


“……”


Lu Ye angry retorted, “You f**king ridicule me after you get the b.a.l.l.s to chase after her. Let’s see by then ah!”


“I don’t like that little mute, why should I chase her? I just want to ridicule you.”


Li Yuan’s mouth was very poisonous. After just a few words, Lu Ye became furious and jumped to his feet, “If it was Brother Yu, he would be able to catch up with her after a short while.”


“F*ck, you’re just f**king talking empty promises here. Yu Luoyin won’t even chase her!”


“Then you ……”


“Who said I won’t go?”


While the two people were in a mess, the always quiet Yu Luoyin uttered a simple question, which immediately put them into silence.


Lu Ye, Li Yuan, and even the always calm Zhou Xin looked over him with some surprise.


Yu Luoyin’s slender fingers fiddled with an unlit cigarette, The corner of his lips slightly hooked, “Since Ah Ye said this girl is hard to chase, wouldn’t it be quite interesting?”


……


“What do you mean?”


Lu Ye was confused and mumbled, “You’re chasing after Bai Xunyin?”


Yu Luoyin smiled and only asked, “Do you guys still want to bet?”


There was a half a moment of silence.


Zhou Xin then took the lead and opened his mouth, but his answer was very different compared to last time, “If it’s you, I bet you can catch up with her.”


Lai Yuan likewise said, “I’ll also bet on you.”


“I ……” Lu Ye held his breath and spat out a sentence, “I’ll go with you guys.”


Then he asked, “How much shall we bet? Laozi can lose quite a bit this time, I’ll bet that Brother Yu can’t chase after her either!”


Yu Luoyin smiled without saying anything, only remembering the words that Lu Ye just said.


“It’s the first time I’ve seen a girl who closes herself off so much.”


He unconsciously thought of the way the young girl bit her lip and ran away when he asked her name twice before.


Typically, young girls were shy. But Bai Xunyin was obviously not as carefree as them.


Perhaps because of some kind of ‘unwillingness’ that was vaguely at work, Yu Luoyin made an unprecedented move, saying and even doing things that he would never normally do.


With Bai Xunyin, he couldn’t help but make an exception from the very start.


It’s just that, neither of them realized how much of a jerk it was to treat someone’s feelings as a mere game.
