I don't want to fall in love, I just want to get rewards

Chapter 146 The incident happened
Xu Ang was not a fool. He didn't even need to think to understand why Lu Yan behaved strangely.

It's just that I saw that Chen Che seemed to have a girlfriend.

At this moment, Xu Ang felt as if he had eaten several Coptis chinensis in one breath. Both his mouth and his heart were filled with bitterness.

His guess was indeed correct. After spending so much time together, Lu Yan had already developed a fondness for Chen Che, and this fondness was not just superficial...

Xu Ang could only watch Lu Yan behave strangely, and he could do nothing...

What can he do?

Comfort Lu Yan and don’t be sad?

This behavior is too clownish. If someone really does this, I'm afraid he'll never get rid of his turtle shell again...

Xu Ang didn't want to be a turtle, but as a normal man, after realizing that his girlfriend was suspected of mentally cheating, he should decisively break up.

But Xu Ang didn't have the courage...

He knew he had no special skills, and because of this, he clearly realized that once he proposed a breakup...

It would be easy for Lu Yan to find a boy who is better than him; but even if Xu Ang just wants to find a girl who is slightly inferior to Lu Yan, it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky.

Xu Ang could only comfort himself in his heart...

"Yanyan just developed a crush on another boy, but I even went to wash his feet. If we really compare them, I went further."

During the meal, both of them ate absent-mindedly. Even though their partners were sitting opposite them, they had no time to talk. They just thought about each other's concerns silently.

……

Chen Che was quite happy eating.

After all, he had nothing to worry about, and with the presence of Han Xiao, a "boo-stirring player", the atmosphere couldn't get cold at all.

After eating and drinking, seeing that it was still early, Han Xiao suddenly suggested going to the movies.

The other two did not raise any objections. Since it was Gu Qingyao who treated them to dinner, Chen Che planned to pay for the movie tickets. However, Han Xiao was quicker and paid for the tickets the moment he chose the movie.

So Chen Che had no choice but to pay for the milk tea and popcorn.

The movie Han Xiao chose was a suspenseful mystery film. The whole film was quite ordinary, without any special highlights. It certainly could not be compared with those classic mystery films of the past.

It's just that the film market nowadays is full of shoddy products, and many films give the audience the feeling that they are made just for the purpose of money laundering... In this case, this film seems quite good.

After the movie, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and the three had no plans to stay any longer.

After parting at a crossroads, Han Xiao and Gu Qingyao walked towards the school, while Chen Che walked towards the Qinglin community.

……

After having a meal with Xu Ang in a daze, Lu Yan rejected Xu Ang's follow-up plan and returned home early.

She sat in front of the computer desk, numbly controlling the game character.

Her luck was particularly bad today. As soon as she left the Novice Village, she was targeted by a group of people and forced into the outdoor PVP session.

The operations, character equipment, and levels of the three opponents are not as good as Lu Yan's. Under normal circumstances, Lu Yan can easily deal with the three opponents with a little effort.

But I don’t know what happened tonight. Lu Yan’s touch was extremely bad and his operation was also quite poor.

The skills she released were easily countered by the opponent, but she took all the skills from the opponent without missing a single one.

In this way, even if her level and equipment are all first-tier, she will not be able to escape death...

"Huh." Lu Yanshuang left the keyboard and exhaled softly.

Just at this moment, she saw a familiar avatar light up in the friend column.

Chen Che is online...

As usual, Lu Yan subconsciously invited Chen Che.

"Let's just go fight the boss together. Anyway, the two of us are better than most full-strength teams." Lu Yan thought silently in his heart.

But this time, Chen Che was slow to join her team.

Neither agree nor refuse...

Lu Yan was stunned for a moment, thinking that Chen Che didn't see it, so she invited him again.

After a few seconds, Chen Che's profile picture dimmed.

Looking at the dimmed portrait, Lu Yan pierced his index finger with his thumb nail so hard that it seemed as if he wanted to make it bleed.

Ten seconds later, her phone lit up.

【Chen Che: I have something to do today, let’s play together later. 】

【Lu Yan: Yes, then you are busy. 】

Chen Che did not continue to send messages.

Lu Yan stared at the two short messages in a daze, feeling a slight pain in her heart.

Ignoring the absurdity of that night, they returned to their own lives. That was what she expressed in the morning...

Now everything seemed to be developing as she had expected, but Lu Yan felt as if her heart was being gripped by a big hand, giving her a feeling of suffocation.

"Why, why am I like this..."

Lu Yan leaned back in her chair, staring blankly at the game interface. She seemed to vaguely see the scene where Chen Che and she had cooperated tacitly in fighting the BOSS here.

……

Xu Ang was also very depressed and couldn't muster any motivation for the whole night.

Again, no one would want his girlfriend to have another man in her heart.

There is a saying that goes like this...

Physical infidelity is like adding a little iced tea to a bottle of urine, while mental infidelity is like adding a little iced tea to a bottle of urine.

No matter which of the above, it will make people feel nauseous and disgusting.

Xu Ang had the same feeling, but he didn't have the courage to make a decisive decision, so he could only keep wasting his time.

This state of internal friction may subside in a few hours, or it may take several years. No one knows how long it will take Xu Ang to adjust his condition.

But soon, he no longer had the energy to waste time on internal affairs.

……

The next day.

"Hello, is this Mr. Xu Ang? Because it involves a matter..."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Ang felt his whole body was cold and his hands were shaking.

Isn't it normal for college students to wash their feet? Why did the uncles in hats call me after I only went there twice?

Xu Ang took a few breaths, then as if he remembered something, he quickly ran into the classroom.

His guide, Liu Ci, was sitting in the back row, playing with his mobile phone leisurely.

Seeing Liu Ci's calm expression, Xu Ang instantly relaxed a lot. After all, when a person makes a mistake, he will be very terrified and afraid that the punishment will be too severe.

But if two people make a mistake, then at least there is support. Although it won't make you optimistic instantly, at least there is a bottom line.

"And Liu Ci looks so relaxed, it seems like he should be able to deal with it." Xu Ang comforted himself in his heart, then walked to Liu Ci and patted him on the shoulder gently.

"Xu Ang, what's wrong?" Liu Ci looked at him in confusion. Just as he was about to continue immersing himself in the game, he heard Xu Ang say:

"Brother Ci, didn't we go to wash feet together that day..."

"Let's talk outside." Liu Ci frowned, stopped playing with his phone, and pulled Xu Ang out of the classroom.

Xu Ang originally thought that Liu Ci was going to teach him how to deal with it, but he didn't expect that Liu Ci would start cursing as soon as he walked out of the classroom:
"No, you are sick. You are talking about this kind of thing in class, and you are talking about it so loudly."

"Sorry, sorry." Xu Ang apologized quickly, and then asked: "Brother Ci, I was too impatient. How should we deal with this time?"

"What? How to deal with it?" Liu Ci frowned.

Seeing that Liu Ci's expression did not seem to be fake, Xu Ang's heart skipped a beat and he quickly said, "Didn't we go to wash our feet together twice? Now the Public Security Bureau has called us, how should we deal with it?"

"Call." Liu Ci was stunned for a moment, then said: "No..."

After thinking for a moment, Liu Ci raised his head, looked at Xu Ang, smacked his lips, and asked tentatively: "You didn't pay with your mobile phone the second time, did you?"

"Ah, I scan the code to pay..."

After Xu Ang finished answering, Liu Ci's face was full of sympathy.

"When I invited you over for the first time, didn't you see that I paid in cash?" Liu Ci took a deep breath, "I thought you knew what I meant, but you..."

Xu Ang finally reacted and staggered back two or three steps in a daze.

"Now that the uncles are investigating, there's no way you can escape." Liu Ci sighed, not knowing what to say.

"Brother Ci, you have to help me." Xu Ang grabbed Liu Ci's arm and said anxiously: "I will say that I am going to exchange cash, and it should be possible..."

"You try it." Liu Ci shook his head. In his opinion, Xu Ang was doomed.

Who would go to a place like that to exchange cash?

You mean you happened to walk into this store when you wanted to change cash, and the amount you wanted to change was exactly the price of that meal, and it took you nearly an hour to change the cash...

The uncles are not fools, no one can be fooled by such statements.

Liu Ci originally wanted to leave immediately, but then he thought that if he really pushed Xu Ang into a corner, he would definitely explode into flames.

Although Liu Ci used cash and did not leave any transaction records on the device, there would definitely be considerable risks if Xu Ang really exposed him.

Thinking of this, Liu Ci patiently coaxed Xu Ang a few more words.

"Why don't you just not go? If there are many people involved, they may not be able to control you."

"What if they come to our house?" Hope flashed in Xu Ang's eyes, but this hope disappeared when he saw Liu Ci's intention to retreat.

……

"Your daughter is so lucky. She doesn't even need living expenses at university, and she can even make a lot of money on her own."

"Hey, your son is not bad either. He has always been an excellent student since he was young. It will be easy for him to find a good job in the future."

In the small corridor outside the office, two middle-aged women were standing together, exchanging business blows.

The one on the left is Xu Ang’s mother, and the one on the right is Lu Yan’s mother.

The two families have lived next door to each other for more than 20 years and have a very good relationship. Lu's mother's current job was recommended by Xu's mother.

Because the work was not busy and they had a lot of common topics, the two couldn't help but start chatting.

When middle-aged women chat, it is easy for them to talk about their children.

Xu's mother envied Lu's mother for having a daughter like Lu Yan, who could earn tens of thousands of yuan a month just by playing games. Not only did she not have to bring living expenses home, but she could also subsidize the household expenses.

Look at my own son...

He was obviously a good child when he was young, and his grades were always top-notch. However, after entering university, he became mediocre among the crowd.

I can’t get a scholarship, I haven’t passed many exams, and I don’t know what I’m busy with all day long.

Lu Yan can earn money, but he not only has to pay for living expenses every month, but also has to pay a large sum of rent...

Her monthly salary was not enough for Xu Ang to spend alone, and the family could not save any money at all.

Although she envied Mother Lu for having a good daughter, Mother Xu was not jealous, and her tone was not sour...

On the one hand, Lu Yan could be said to have grown up under her care, and could almost be said to be half a daughter to her; on the other hand, Xu's mother felt that Lu Yan would definitely marry her son in the future.

Although my son cannot compare with Lu Yan, he is definitely better than most boys... He has an honest personality, no bad habits, strong abilities, and attends a top-tier university in the country. His salary will definitely not be low in the future.

The two children have been childhood sweethearts and have an emotional foundation. The two families know each other well, so it would be strange if they didn't get married.

While the two middle-aged women were chatting, Xu's mother's cell phone suddenly rang.

Looking at the caller ID, Xu's mother was stunned for a moment, then pressed the answer button.

"Hello, how are you? May I ask who you are?"

……

After hanging up the phone, Xu's mother felt so embarrassed that she couldn't hold it in anymore.

When she usually brags about her son to others, she always says that he is honest and has good grades...

In the end, I behaved myself and went to the police station to call her.

Mother Xu felt her entire face burning, and she wanted to call Xu Ang over to give him a good scolding...

But at this moment, she was more worried about what Lu Yan's family would think.

Mother Lu was standing right next to her. She probably heard most of the conversation and should have known what Xu Ang had done...

Put yourself in her shoes. If Lu Yan was her daughter, Xu's mother would not let her marry a man who had visited prostitutes...

It is precisely because of this that Xu's mother is so worried that she doesn't know what to do.

Mother Xu turned sideways and took a look at the expression on Mother Lu's face, and her heart sank.

Having known each other for more than 20 years, she knows her old friend quite well. The fact that she showed this expression clearly shows that she understands what happened.

"Look at this child. If I don't take care of him, he will easily learn bad things from others." Although she was angry that her son had done such a thing, Xu's mother was still trying to make up for Xu Ang, "Your Yanyan has to come here to control him."

"Boys will become more stable when they grow up." Mother Lu smiled warmly and continued, "By the way, do you know Lao Hu? He has been..."

……

after get off work.

Mother Lu rushed home in a hurry. As soon as she entered the house, she looked at her husband who was cleaning the house and asked, "Have you been in touch with Yanyan recently?"

"No." Father Lu shook his head. "What's wrong? Did something happen to Yanyan?"

"No, Yanyan is fine, but Xu Ang is in trouble."
