Return of the King, Dominating the City-Chapter 1366 - 1351: I Twisted My Ankle

Song Yun nodded but noticed a hint of confusion deep in Xiao Hui’s eyes.

"Sigh!"

Song Yun didn’t say anything. The concept of "friends with benefits" is more suitable for mature people. Only then can both parties manage their relationship without unrealistic expectations. If one is mature and the other is naive, that’s when undesirable things, like love, can occur.

Of course, it’s not that love is a bad thing, but if only one party develops feelings and the other is just in it for fun, then it’s problematic.

As a seasoned player in the field of relationships, Song Yun’s insight was exceptional. Seeing the confusion in Xiao Hui’s eyes, Song Yun knew that some things might happen soon.

However, Song Yun did not want to mention it at this time because talking about things before they happen often lacks credibility and might lead to unnecessary conflicts. It’s better to wait and address it when it actually happens, as having facts makes it easier to discuss.

Though Xiao Hui appeared carefree and even sought out ’pals,’ Song Yun saw him as just a slightly more mature guy than his peers. To Song Yun, though, he was still quite naive.

However, not everyone is like Song Yun, this world is ultimately ordinary people’s world.

Everyone is just a passerby.

That evening, Song Yun treated Xiao Hui and Big Head to dinner. After all, when someone takes you out to have fun, it’s only right to reciprocate. This is called social etiquette.

Many people think that when friends have a close bond, there’s no need to stand on ceremony. But if you ignore etiquette once, twice, or thrice, by the fourth time, the other person might not consider you a friend anymore.

Even though Song Yun knew he shouldn’t drink at that moment, he didn’t care. His body’s recovery speed was so fast that by the end of the meal, many of his wounds had already scabbed over, much faster than ordinary people.

The drinking went on until midnight. Xiao Hui and Big Head were quite tipsy, and the three finally headed back.

At this moment, on the way back to the boys’ dormitory.

"Later, you just pretend to bully me, and I’ll run towards Song Yun. At that point, Song Yun surely won’t ignore it. You just need to pretend to hesitate for a moment before running away, okay?"

A woman was speaking to a man.

"Yeah, got it!"

The man nodded.

"Alright, now you go into that small grove there. I’ll walk by later, and you’ll come out and harass me."

The woman said.

"Okay, Sister Rumeng."

With that, the man walked into a nearby grove.

Song Yun, Xiao Hui, and Big Head were walking with their arms around each other’s shoulders. Xiao Hui and Big Head were singing some unknown song, and Song Yun was humming along.

At this moment.

"Help!"

A sharp female voice rang out, and the three saw a woman in a short skirt and high heels running towards them from not far away, followed by a masked man.

"What the hell’s going on!"

Xiao Hui shivered and looked at the scene in surprise.

"Looks like she’s being chased by a molester!"

Big Head said.

"Should we protect our asses then?" Xiao Hui asked.

"You look delicate, so maybe you need to. Song Yun and I are fine though!" Big Head replied with a laugh.

Song Yun squinted his eyes, looking at the person not far away. Despite the dim street lights, Song Yun could still clearly see that person’s appearance.

Rumeng!

This woman wasn’t sleeping and yet was pretending to be attacked at this hour. What was she up to?

"Help me!"

Rumeng seemed to have spotted the three of them and ran towards Song Yun while calling out.

"Help me!"

Rumeng’s speed was beyond Song Yun’s expectations. Before Song Yun could decide if he should step forward to help, she was already right in front of him, and whether out of intent or nervousness, her foot twisted, and she exclaimed, falling towards Song Yun.

Xiao Hui and Big Head jumped away instantly.

Song Yun also wanted to jump away, but seeing them move faster than him, a master of agility, Song Yun could only stand still and lightly help Rumeng up.

Rumeng’s hand gripped Song Yun’s hand tightly and pulled down forcefully, taking advantage to lift herself up, while her other hand grabbed Song Yun’s neck.

In an instant, she clung closely to Song Yun like a koala.

Song Yun sighed helplessly. Damn, I got taken advantage of.

The man who was chasing Rumeng noticed others there, and seeing three people, he spat on the ground unwillingly before turning to run away.

"Are you alright?"

Song Yun asked with a frown.

"No...ooh, twisted my ankle, so painful!"

Rumeng was about to let go but her twisted ankle gave way, prompting her to quickly grab onto Song Yun again.

"It’s late at night and instead of being in your dorm, you’re strolling around dressed in something so provocative. Isn’t that just inviting trouble?" Song Yun never had a good impression of Rumeng, and the fact that she’s with Xuan Yuanyi made him a bit wary of her, so his words were not very polite.

"I... I just got dumped..."

Rumeng said, her eyes suddenly filling with tears. The rapid shift in emotion left Song Yun momentarily taken aback.

"Dumped?"

Song Yun paused for a moment before saying, "Then just go back and get some sleep."

"I... I just broke up with Yuanyi!"

Rumeng noticed that Song Yun didn’t ask why she was heartbroken and just told her to go back to the dorm. She immediately realized Song Yun wasn’t interested in her. But her task at the moment was to seduce Song Yun, so even though Song Yun showed disinterest, Rumeng continued, "I didn’t know he was that kind of person. He was seeing other women behind my back. Sob, sob!"

Song Yun looked helplessly at this woman clinging to him, crying miserably. His instinct was to throw her as far away as possible, but dealing with a pretty girl, even one not threatening, made him second-guess whether that would be too unkind.

Is it okay if I kick her away?

While Song Yun was contemplating whether to kick or throw her, Rumeng continued, "Sorry, Song Yun, I didn’t know he was that kind of person before, which caused some misunderstandings. If it wasn’t for you tonight, I don’t know what would have happened to me!"

"No worries."

Song Yun couldn’t even be bothered to say he was a Good Samaritan. Instead, he said, "It’s late. Go back and sleep. Everything will be fine tomorrow. You’re still young, youth is beautifully infinite!"

"But... but I twisted my ankle!"
