I Just Want to Freeload on Your Luck

Chapter 33

After eight o'clock, the students of the International Class entered the classroom one after another.
When Ke Chengwen came in, he was holding a bunch of jackets, looking around with his hands on his waist. Then, he came in after confirming that no teacher was nearby. He was acting all mysterious.
“Is Xi ge here already?” He saw that there was a trace of someone having sat in Fu Yangxi’s place, but that person was not in his seat.
Mingxi continued to do her mock papers without raising her head. “He went to the bathroom.”
"Zhao Mingxi, come here." Ke Chengwen whispered excitedly. "I want to show you something precious."
Mingxi felt chills all over when she heard what he said. She put down the pen and looked back at him in disgust. Ke Chengwen looked left and right. Then, he carefully and excitedly lifted the jacket in his arms—
Suddenly, she heard a puppy bark!
It was a husky about two or three months old. It was only the size of a pillow with black and white spots. It looked both fierce and cute. It tilted its head and stared at Mingxi.

It was absolutely adorable.
Mingxi's eyes lit up. She reached out and touched the puppy's head. The puppy looked at her curiously. Instead of biting her, it licked the palm of her hand.
Many students who have already entered the classroom also looked over. A few girls looked excited.
Mingxi asked, “Where did you get it from?”
“My husky gave birth to it.” Ke Chengwen said. “I only recently learned that Xi ge is afraid of dogs. Don’t you think this weakness is way too out of character for Fu Yangxi? If you say that to the people in the Evergreen Class, they will laugh at him. So I thought of bringing a puppy so that he could get used to it. Maybe once he gets close to a puppy that doesn't bite, he won't be afraid of dogs anymore…”
Mingxi thought Ke Chengwen had picked it up at school and it would be sent away soon.
She didn’t expect him to deliberately bring it from home to Fu Yangxi.
She disagreed and said, “I think you should forget it. Didn't he say that he is afraid of dogs? Why must you make him overcome—”
Before he finished speaking, Fu Yangxi came in through the back door of the classroom, still carrying the medicine bottle in his hand.
His gaze slowly fell on the dog in Ke Chengwen's arms.
He swallowed hard, and his expression changed suddenly.
“Xi ge, look!” Without any fear of death, Ke Chengwen held the dog and handed it to Fu Yangxi.

The puppy was eager and pounced on Fu Yangxi.
For a moment, Mingxi didn’t know if it was her misperception, but she saw a nearly frozen expression, as if returning to a nightmare, on Fu Yangxi's face.
It was an expression of someone falling fast, really fast, straight down to the ground.
On that day at the hillside, everything happened too fast, and Mingxi herself was extremely afraid of the Tibetan mastiff so she couldn't see exactly what kind of stiff expression Fu Yangxi had on when he stared at the Tibetan mastiff.
She could see it clearly now.
—That was an expression that would never appear on Fu Yangxi's face at all.

Because of this, Mingxi’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, and her blood rushed to the top of her head.
She hurried over to stand in front of Fu Yangxi and said, “Alright that’s enough, class is about to start. You should send the dog to the school guard, otherwise Mr. Lu will—”
Before she could finish speaking, she realized that something was wrong. She turned her head to take a look.
The figure behind her had disappeared.
Fu Yangxi had left the class with the medicine bottle.
...
Ke Chengwen opened his mouth wide. He was still in shock having finally seen Fu Yangxi's reaction. He belatedly realized that he might have caused trouble for himself.
He felt a chill down his spine and said to Mingxi, “I’m done for. Xi ge is going to beat me to death later. I really didn’t know that he was so scared. Since it’s just a little puppy and it's not scary at all, I thought of bringing it over for fun.”
Mingxi said to him, “Send the puppy away first. I'll go and look for him.”
Ke Chengwen swallowed. Before he could reply, Mingxi had already rushed out of the classroom.
The bell rang. When Mingxi saw Mr. Lu coming out of the office with a textbook, she was suddenly very nervous. Before Mr. Lu could stop her, she rushed downstairs in a panic. She searched the whole of the academic building, yet she couldn’t even find Fu Yangxi's shadow at all.
The school was too big. If she was to continue looking for him, she would have to skip all of today’s morning classes.
Thus, Mingxi climbed to the top of the academic building again, planning to look down from a high place.
She was out of breath when she reached the roof. It was there when she saw Fu Yangxi.
Surprisingly, Fu Yangxi was lying down on the roof.
There were a few horizontal reclining chairs on the roof for students to come up for early reading, but the reclining chairs often had dust accumulated on it, so no students would usually come up here.
Fu Yangxi lay calmly on one of the reclining chairs. With his hands folded, he looked at the sky.
He looked like he was thinking about something, yet at the same time it was like his mind was empty.
Mingxi panted heavily as she approached him.
