You Only Have to Answer Me, Yes or No

“Which story would you like to hear?”

“Anything.”

Song Yujin ended up telling the story of “Aladdin’s Magic Lamp”. His voice was soft and gentle.

Lu Suo listened and closed his eyes. Subsequently, he fell asleep.

This time, Lu Suo had a much better dream. He dreamt of having the magic lamp. A genie came out and said, “I can fulfill three of your wishes.”

Lu Suo quickly made his wish.

“I want to live with my parents and my uncle forever! I want my uncle’s leg to recover soon! I want our family to be happy!”

After saying that, Lu Suo’s parents appeared. He laughed cheerfully.

Song Yujin watched as a smile slowly appeared on Lu Suo’s face and stopped telling the story.

‘I’ve never seen him act like this before… I should probably go and talk to Su Xing.’

Song Yujin wanted to confirm if Su Xing’s father was actually the murderer. Having that information was vital.

The next day, Song Yujin made sure to keep an eye on Lu Suo. When Lu Suo got up and was about to leave the classroom, he put down his pen and said, “I’ll go with you.”

Lu Suo felt a little helpless.

“I’m not going to find him.”

“Oh.”

Lu Suo snorted.

“Don’t stare at me like that. You’re not allowed to follow me either.”

After saying that, Lu Suo left.

‘This is my chance to meet up with Su Xing.’

With that thought in mind, Song Yujin went straight to Su Xing’s class.

Su Xing had just come out from the bathroom. Suddenly, someone stopped him in his tracks. He retreated in fear and raised his head in horror.

‘Wait… He isn’t Lu Ran or his friends.’

Song Yujin’s face was cold, but not fierce. Anyway, he wasted no time and asked, “Su Xing? I have a question for you.”

Su Xing pursed his lips.

‘Is it about my father? Does he also want to bully me?’

Song Yujin continued, “Was your father involved in an accident last August? A couple died on the spot and one got severely injured.”

Su Xing’s face turned pale. He looked at Song Yujin fearfully.

‘How did he know? What is he trying to do?’

Su Xing stayed silent.

“I’m asking you a question.”

Suddenly, a voice came from behind.

“Who are you?”

Song Yujin ignored the other student and just stared at Su Xing.

The student asked again, “Is Su Xing your friend?”

Song Yujin could not be bothered with someone irrelevant. His focus was only on one person.

Lu Ran felt a little embarrassed because Song Yujin kept ignoring him. He glared at Su Xing and asked him instead, “Is he your friend?”

Su Xing shook his head.

“Then why are you talking with him?”

Su Xing lowered his head.

“I’m going back to my class now.”

Su Xing was about to leave, but Song Yujin took a step forward and stopped him.

“You only have to answer me, yes or no?”

Lu Ran put his hand on Su Xing’s shoulder.

“What did he ask you?”

Su Xing kept quiet.

‘He is probably not comfortable answering with others around.’

With that thought in mind, Song Yujin said to Lu Ran, “Please leave us alone for a moment.”

Lu Ran laughed mockingly.

“Who are you to command me?”

Song Yujin did not want to waste his time on Lu Ran. He glanced at Su Xing.

“Come with me.”

Song Yujin turned around to leave, but Su Xing did not move. Lu Ran was pressing on his shoulder.

Since Song Yujin was in a hurry, he moved Lu Ran’s hand away.

Lu Ran became angry. He clenched his fist and tried to hit Song Yujin.

However, Song Yujin grabbed Lu Ran’s wrist and pulled it forward. Then, he raised his knee and kicked him in the stomach.

Lu Ran immediately cried out in pain.

Song Yujin let go and looked at Su Xing again.

“Come.”

Su Xing was shocked. Who knew someone could make Lu Ran cry out in pain?
