Chapter 58

"I'll give you a call before I head out. You better not be late, I want to get to school on time." Jiang Cheng added, "After all, Lao Xu... we have to give him a bit of face."

"En, don't worry." Gu Fei chuckled.

"Then, you... go up ba." Jiang Cheng scanned the area; there were unfortunately too many people going up and down the stairs at the moment that he couldn't do anything else. "I'll head back now."

Gu Fei reached out his hand and quickly touched his hand that was holding the handlebar.

"Remove your hand." Jiang Cheng had said that even though he also quickly touched Gu Fei's hand in return. Then he turned the bike around and looked at him, "I'll leave when you go up."

"Text me once you've finished the worksheets tonight." Gu Fei hopped toward the corridor entrance.

"En," Jiang Cheng nodded.

After watching Gu Fei hop into the corridor then ran up the stairs three steps at a time, Jiang Cheng got on his bike and rode away.

What was having a boyfriend pretending to be a cripple like?

It was when you had to wake up twenty minutes earlier than usual at the break of dawn, give him a call to wake him up, and then ride your bike to the downstairs of his place. You would then get to watch as he pretended to limp over to you, get on the backseat of the bike, and take him to eat breakfast. After the both of you were done with breakfast, taking him to school was the next task.

In order to appear authentic, you have to buy him water in between classes and help him go to the bathroom. If he wanted to smoke a cigarette between classes, you have to help support him a few more rounds.

Once classes were dismissed for the day, you couldn't even stay with him just a bit longer. You have to take him back on time because his sister was extremely worried and always kept watch at the gate when school ended.

But after three days of this kind of life, you would eventually become accustomed to it. After all, this person didn't usually go to school on time, so it was amazing - in and of itself - to be able to go to school together in the earliest of every morning.

The day after was May First, Labour Day - a holiday. Even though it was only three days, that didn't stop everyone from being overtaken with sheer joy. They excitedly spoke of where they were going, while at the same time, grumbling at the teachers for arranging piles of assignments that they deemed to impede them.

In fact, there weren't actually that many assignments, and compared to before, this much was practically nothing. For Jiang Cheng, whenever they had three days off for the holiday before, seven days' worth of assignments were meticulously arranged for them without a doubt.

In the past, Pan Zhi had always copied him. During this particular Labour Day, who knew who he was going to copy off.

"I'm going to the community hospital in a bit," Gu Fei said.

"What are you going there for?" Jiang Cheng froze.

"To change the medicine and switch to a smaller splint so that it'll be easier to move," Gu Fei said matter-of-factly.

"Wouldn't that expose your secret?" Jiang Cheng looked at his leg only to mentally agree that the splint was indeed wrapped in a rather exaggerated manner.

"I can buy another," Gu Fei said. "Li Yan and the others had bought it before and wrapped it up. It will have to be a smaller one this time."

"Alright, I'll go with you then." Jiang Cheng nodded.
