Give Me Another Smile (GL) Chapter 81 - I'll Take the Blame for You

…

TL Notes:

Made a change in Chapter 80:

Little Miss Tang -> Big Sis Tang

"Fuck! When did you get here?!" Wen Tao instinctively cursed. Then, when he looked around, he saw that Tang Yu had already disappeared with Zhao Yu, leaving him behind with Li Beining.

Li Beining fondly smiled as he reached out to rub Wen Tao's soft hair. Then, he said, "I arrived long ago. You just weren't paying attention."

Wen Tao slapped away the hand that was messing up his neatly combed hair. Then, giving Li Beining a look of disgust, Wen Tao said, "If you want to say something, just say it! Don't touch my hair!"

The smile in Li Beining's eyes gradually vanished, his expression growing solemn. It was as if he had suddenly changed into an entirely different person.

This was the first time Wen Tao had seen such an expression on Li Beining, and he couldn't help but back away out of fear and anxiety.

"Listen here, Wen Tao. When the school asks you who caused that boy's injury, tell them I did it," Li Beining said as he grabbed Wen Tao by the arm, his silver hair glistening under the winter sun.

Li Beining put his hands into his pockets as he watched the upset young man walk away, a different emotion appearing in his eyes.

Should he say that as expected of the kid he had taken a liking to?

Wen Tao was clean. Very clean. The boy remained mostly uncontaminated even after rolling about in the cesspool known as society for a couple of years. In this day and age, specimens like Wen Tao had already become very rare.

Suddenly thinking of something, Li Beining shook his head and chuckled before making his way out of the school campus.

The hospital was as crowded as always. Almost every day, countless people would come to line up in the lobby, each waiting anxiously in front of a counter with a phone or a bill in hand.

"Why are there so many people..." Tang Yu knitted her brows as she carefully helped Zhao Yu over to an empty seat. "Wait here for me while I get you registered. Be careful not to let anyone touch your arm."

"...Okay," Zhao Yu weakly responded, his lips turning white from the pain.

Unfortunately, no matter how much of a hurry Tang Yu was in, she cou
