Oops, something seems to be wrong with my love life

Li Tao was released, his hair was all messed up, he said with some shame and anger: "You didn't even ask me if I agreed or not..."

“Why should I care about your feelings?”

"You scumbag, is it all about just satisfying yourself?" Li Tao said angrily.

Qiu Lan was stunned for a moment, and asked in a daze: "How did I feel good? Did Su Xuefu feel good at that time?"

She stroked her chin and said absentmindedly, "Why do I feel sick?"

Chapter 158 Subsidy for Household

When Li Tao was in a dilemma, Qiu Lan's eyes flashed with hesitation, and then she said lightly: "Clean it up first, and restore it to the same state as before, or you can commit suicide."

Li Tao rubbed his red nose, stepped back, and stopped when he had enough vision to see the whole room.

The fire actually burned everything. The power of half a bucket of gasoline was enough to burn tables and chairs without any problem.

The tilted vase was also broken into pieces on the ground, the porcelain pieces were blackened by the fire, and the scattered soil stiffly covered the floor. As for the flowers, they either turned to ashes or were just wrinkled and shrunken skins.

"I can clean it up, but I don't know what it looked like originally. How can I restore it?" Li Tao said bitterly.

Qiu Lan's eyes darkened. She stared at Li Tao coldly and said, "I have a bad temper and don't want to talk nonsense, and you are not the man who can make an exception for me."

Li Tao smiled bitterly. He really didn't know what the flower shop looked like originally.

Qiu Lan had a preconceived notion that he was an arsonist, so he must have come in at that time, but the fact was that Li Tao did not get out of the car the entire time, and watched Su Xuefu committing a crime in amazement.

Looking at Qiulan's attitude, there was no point in explaining. She was convinced that all this was done by Li Tao.

"Su Xuefu told you that she was the one who had the fever, but you still didn't believe it and put the blame on me. Don't I look like a good person?"

After complaining, Li Tao sighed, turned around and walked out of the flower shop.

This street is quite long, with clothing stores, cold drink shops, and exquisite private kitchens all gathered on both sides of this street.

People were walking in groups of two or three on the street. Although there were not many people, it did make Li Tao feel relaxed.

A girl with good temperament held an umbrella and took a glass of iced lemonade from the window of the cold drink shop.

She took a sip of the wine, and her whole face instantly flushed with a refreshing blush.

Li Tao swallowed his saliva. He also wanted a glass of refreshing lemonade. During his previous summer vacations, Liu Renna would make a full refrigerator full of lemonade.

However, with Li Tao's eyesight, he could certainly see on the billboard that the cheapest lemonade cost 12 points, which was totally beyond his affordability.

But this scene made him seem to have returned to his normal life outside school. Li Tao had been very tired in the past half month since entering the school.

The intrigues and conspiracies were woven into a huge web that endlessly submerged his normal life.

The ordinary street scene with a hint of life in front of him really made him feel much better.

Li Tao stood there and looked around, and finally found the cleaning tools placed next to the public trash can on the roadside. He picked up a mop and a bucket and returned to the flower shop.

Although the flower shop was badly burned, the faucet in the washbasin at the back was still there.

Li Tao twisted the water outlet tentatively and found that there was a lot of flying ashes blocking the water outlet. After the water came out clear, Li Tao placed the bucket underneath.

"Crash-"

Li Tao turned the faucet to the maximum. While waiting for the water to fill up, he stretched. Because of Aunt Liu, he hadn't cleaned the house for a long time.

Qiu Lan glanced at him, walked to the corner of the room in her high heels, and slowly squatted down. She looked out the window and said lightly:

"Student Su can't possibly do such a thing."

Li Tao, who originally didn't want to argue with her, felt very uncomfortable after hearing this.

"Why are you saying this again? Prejudice is a... rather stupid way of thinking..." Li Tao complained impulsively, and instantly realized the gap in strength between them, and cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead.

"You said I'm stupid?" Qiu Lan held her chin up and looked at him casually out of the corner of her eye.

"That's not what I meant. Why on earth do you want to understand Su Xuefu's mentality or what she thinks?"

"Well...it's a long story." Qiu Lan was quite worried and shifted her gaze back to the street.

After turning on the faucet, Li Tao breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat off his face imperceptibly.

He is not good at changing the subject.

Li Tao pounded the mop in the bucket a few times and began to clean the floor. At the same time, he followed up Qiu Lan's question and asked:

"You're fine anyway, and you're not helping. Why don't you just sit there and talk to me? Or should I play a song on my phone?"

Qiu Lan blinked her eyes, which were sewn with sparse red thread, and seemed to think that what Li Tao said made sense. She looked at the window glass with a big hole in it, her eyes lost in reminiscence.

"My classmate Su and I were in Class A from freshman to senior year. In sophomore year, my classmates suddenly sat far away from me, and the seats three or four circles around me were all empty."

Li Tao's expression gradually became strange. The isolated and weird classmate seemed a bit cliché, but he still buried his head and struggled with the soil on the floor.

Qiu Lan was originally talking to herself, and she felt much more comfortable without Li Tao's response: "She is the only one willing to partner with me during clinical surgery, and she told me that they isolated me because I was too stubborn, and I didn't give them any convenience when I entered the interrogation department of the school student union, but she admired me for being like this."

Appreciate? Li Tao grinned, his expression becoming more and more strange.

"When I was a junior, I ran for president of the college student union. This required the support of at least one Class A student in the college, but they had already discussed it and didn't want to vote for me. But in the end, Su voted for me."

"Later, someone questioned whether she was a traitor for voting for me. In fact, no one would produce evidence, and if she didn't say anything, the matter would have been left unresolved. But she didn't want to lie, so she admitted it. This caused her to be taken advantage of when she was competing with Xu Mochou for student union resources..."

Qiu Lan pursed her rosy lips and murmured, "So she won't lie, because she doesn't like lying."

Li Tao, who was mopping the floor, was secretly complaining: She said that she was not a person who had preconceived ideas. But just because Su Xuefu admitted that she had voted at that time, Qiu Lan concluded that she was a person who would never lie.

But the next moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly jumped into his mind.

Li Tao had an immature guess in his mind, that Qiu Lan might be a lesbian, and the object of her affection was Su Xuefu...

Qiu Lan noticed that Li Tao glanced at her strangely from time to time, but she certainly couldn't imagine what Li Tao was thinking.

She stood up and stretched lazily, feeling somewhat comfortable. She didn't expect that she would tell her true feelings to a strange man like Li Tao. She thought that it was because of Su Xuefu's attitude towards this man that she didn't have any defense against him.

"You can also deal with the black spots on the wall. I will ask the decorators to rearrange it this afternoon."

"Ah? Then...after I do all this...I don't have to commit suicide, right?" Li Tao asked hesitantly.

"No need for now. Actually, that day, when I saw the flower shop burning, I did swear to find the real murderer and persuade him to commit suicide. But after seeing her, my anger suddenly subsided. Even if she burned it, I would not be angry. It's just that when I saw you hiding under her skirt, I felt...very uncomfortable."

Li Tao stared at the ceiling and blinked hard, with an excited little man in his heart stomping his feet wildly. Oh, this was too exciting.

"So you have to work in the flower shop until classmate Su comes back..." Qiu Lan said in a vague voice, looking at the white clouds in the blue sky.

Li Tao felt relieved. Su Xuefu should have left school. Although there were fewer classes in the senior year, she did not ask for leave, so she would not be away for too long. Maybe Li Tao could even get some salary from the rich woman Qiu Lan.

He had long noticed that Aunt Liu was in such a difficult situation recently. But just when Li Tao was thinking about how much salary should be appropriate, Qiu Lan suddenly walked up to Li Tao with a somewhat lonely look.

"She's your girlfriend. Do you think her love for you is enough to make her come back?"

Li Tao was stunned and asked in confusion: "How could she love me so much?"

"Pah, how can she love me?"

Although Li Tao didn't know the reason, he must have said something wrong, because as soon as he said this, the entire space seemed to be frozen by low temperature.

A visible chill came out of Qiu Lan's body. She opened her eyes and stared at Li Tao.

The red lines in Qiulan's eyes were in a tense state, and the oppressive feeling was enough to strike directly into the soul. Li Tao had no doubts anymore that Qiulan's strength was at least ten times that of Duanmu Rong.

"If she doesn't come back, what's the point of me keeping you?" Qiu Lan approached Li Tao step by step, and her momentum gradually increased like waves.

"Why wouldn't she come back? She just went to the orphanage to take care of some things." Li Tao explained with an itchy throat.

Qiu Lan stared at him without blinking and said, "If she doesn't love you, she has no reason to come back. Who would feel a sense of belonging to a school that makes them disabled?"

Li Tao's pupils shrank, and his mind couldn't help but echo what Qin Yueru had told him about the consequences of crossing that wall.

"If you are an ordinary person, there is a way to get out. That is to go through this Sansheng Road. Behind the wall is a snake cave, an oil pot, and an old man."

"But I don't know the details. I haven't climbed over this wall, but many people know that this is the way out. Most people are afraid to go through it like me."

……

Listening to Qin Yueru's words now, combined with Qiu Lan's meaning, Li Tao had a bad feeling.

"What happened to Su Xuefu?"

Qiu Lan's eyes were bloodshot, and she said in a cold voice, "I got the news from the student union that her entire right arm was cut off during the third level."

Li Tao's mind went blank for a moment. He couldn't believe that the girl who turned around and smiled at him was missing an arm.

The flower shop has been burned for more than half a month, why hasn't Qiu Lan dealt with it yet?

After she learned about Su Xuefu's situation, she was in no mood to deal with it. She herself didn't understand why she felt so decadent.

Su Xuefu had not originally planned to study for a master's degree at Lu Ma, and her applications to leave the school were rejected many times, so she had no choice but to force her way through. Of course, Qiu Lan only learned about this later.

But she really couldn't think of anything worth Su Xuefu's nostalgia for in this school. She had been living in a daze during this period, but when she saw Li Tao again, she suddenly realized that this man was the only boy Su Xuefu had been close to during her college years.

And she allowed him to hide in her chastity place, so this man should be worthy of Su Xuefu coming back.

"Om-"

The phone in Li Tao's pocket vibrated. This was the reminder he set because it was almost time to meet A-Cha. But how could Qiu Lan let him leave in this state?

Qiu Lan took out a blade that was glowing coldly from the inside of her white coat and pushed it towards Li Tao's neck little by little.

Just as the tip of the knife was about to touch his skin, Li Tao's Adam's apple moved.

"She'll be back."

"why?"

"Because I'm her boyfriend." Li Tao said stiffly.

Qiu Lan said nothing, keeping the blade against his throat for a while before turning around and removing the blade.

"She loves you, that's why you can become her boyfriend, so she feels a sense of belonging to you and will come back." Qiu Lan didn't know whether she was saying this to Li Tao or to herself.

"Then I..."

"You continue cleaning." Qiu Lan glanced at him coldly, and was kind enough to help him carry the dirty bucket to the door and empty it.

It was not Li Tao's intention to take advantage of Su Xuefu. He was just trying to help her out in an emergency. Li Tao believed that she would understand.

After mopping the black spots on the wall, Li Tao glanced at Qiu Lan and asked tentatively, "Manager, what are my working hours at the flower shop? I have a lot of classes in my freshman year, so..."

"This place is very close to the teaching building. You finish your classes in the morning, stay for two hours at noon, and then in the evening..."

Qiu Lan was interrupted by Li Tao before she could finish her words: "Manager, it's definitely not possible at night. My parents will pick me up at 6pm..."
