The livestream:
——[Ahh this is too crazy!]
——[Holy sh*t, are they going to demolish the whole school?!]
——[I’ve held it in for so long, but I still ended up crying]
——[I just want to say Yi mei is such a badass! Shi Yingdi is such a badass! “Two Under One Roof” is so badass!]
In the live comments, there was no more hate speech, only solidarity.
When the first demo vehicle knocked down the school wall, the dusty scene suddenly erupted with a huge noise.
Cheers and roars of applause…turned into a blood-boiling melody.
Rong Huai stuck one hand in his pocket as his face slowly formed into a smile.
“You guys went to steal things on purpose, didn’t you.” The girl’s soft and sweet voice sounded above the clamor. Rong Huai’s body stiffened as he uncomfortably fiddled with his ear.
“I’m not that kind of nosy person.” The boy continued to deny it.
Xiang Yi looked at him and spoke a few key words. “Stealing, streaming, making a big splash, calling the police, exposing the school…This was your plan, right?”
Rong Huai’s expression was stiff.
How did she so casually guess the brilliant idea that the few of them had planned for such a long time?
The boy kicked a nearby rock and awkwardly responded, “Are you trying to say our plan is naive… I mean, we…we want to become mature, too…”
But they didn’t know what to do.
This was already the best outcome they could have hoped for.
After hearing that there was a livestream happening in the manor next door, even if they had never seen it before nor fully understood the impact “Two Under One Roof” would have, they still pursued their plans with reckless passion. Without hesitation, they had broken in, scared to cause too much damage. It had taken them a long time of mental preparation to even steal those eggs…
After a few seconds, Rong Huai did not respond, but he couldn’t help secretly glancing at Xiang Yi.
The girl met his gaze, her beautiful eyes curving into little half moons.
“You guys did good.”
Thump thump thump…
She’s praising me…
His heartbeat sped up as it pounded densely like a drum.
If there was a fawn in his heart, it would probably be dizzy from bumping around and had a concussion.
Rong Huai moved his feet and approached her, arching his thin back and coughing twice.
“Uhm… come on, do it.”
“Huh?”
Rong Huai looked at her blank expression and irritably said, “Do that just now!” His voice turned quiet as he capriciously said with a hint of grievance. “You have already patted that guy on the back, but you haven’t done it to me…”
The next second, the girl stood on her tiptoes and with her soft pale hands, imitated Shi Sui’s coaxing method and rubbed his head a few times.
Rong Huai froze, his whole body dumbfounded.
She…She patted my head…
His heart exploded into fireworks, but his expression was a proud one. “You’re so short, you have to stand on your toes to pat my head.”
Xiang Yi curled her lips. “Your hair is so prickly… Like a hedgehog…”
The young boy felt his hair go on edge. “You don’t know sh*t! My style is hedgehog hair!”
“…” Okay then.
At this time, Sheng Guang and Yin Jiangxue had approached with the processed plaque.
On the plaque, there was a thin wooden board nailed onto it.
Yin Jiangxue: “Little Xiang Yi, this is your farm, so you should put this up.”
Everyone looked toward Xiang Yi.
Not far away, the machines roared as buildings collapsed and dust raged like the setting of a doomsday movie.
The shadows from the trees whirled as the young girl stood on the edge of shadow and light with a calm and gentle gaze.
At that moment, a phrase suddenly popped into Rong Huai’s mind.
——Everything in the universe is damaged, but she is the source of the light.
