Chapter 12: The Guardian School's Scorpion

  Time flies and it's been a week already.

  Over the weekend, I took Zhao Ziyang and Ma Long to Xiaojuxian first, and also paid back the money for breaking the boss's desk last time. Meanwhile, Er Niu and Zhang Xiong were arranged by me to pick up Lu Xiaoyu and others from their dormitory.

  The boss handed over the money and returned the student card to me: "You kid is still credible, I was thinking that if you didn't come this week, I would go to your school to reflect the situation."

  After chatting with the boss for a while, we booked a private room.

  When the crowd from Er Lu Xiao Yu's dormitory arrived, Zhao Zi Yang discontentedly asked me: "Feng Ge, why didn't you let me go with Ma Long to pick up your sister and her roommates? Hmph, now Er Niu and Zhan Xiong those two blockheads have benefited."

  I chuckled and said, "You also know that those two are introverts. Introverts are good, they won't use flowery language to flirt with young girls. If I let you two go, I wouldn't be at ease."

  I chatted with Ma Long and Zhao Ziyang for a while, Lu Xiaoyu, Hu Fei and the other four girls in their dormitory were also brought to Xiaojiuxian by Zhang Xiong and Er Niu, and after asking the boss, they quickly found the private room I had booked.

  Lu Xiaoyu didn't need to say anything and naturally sat down beside me. I could tell that she was very happy today, at least much happier than the last time we were at Xiaojiuxian.

  It's also strange that Xiao Yu is always introducing me to his friends one by one, and then they become my friends too. ?? Born King of Mixing 12

  But when I'm with Zhou Lin, it's completely different. She never talks to me about anyone in her dormitory, so even now, I don't know who Zhou Lin is roommates with.

  So Lu Xiaoyu is more outgoing compared to Zhou Lin, while Zhou Lin is more introverted and even has some "darkness".

  "Okay, the word 'darkness' is my own feeling. As for what Zhou Lin's real life is like, I don't know because I haven't seen any girl in our class get close to her. In other words, she seems to have no friends."

  Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little sorry for Zhou Lin.

  Originally I thought these things were nothing, but at that time when I was thinking about these things my eyes were staring at Xiao Yu and there was a hint of pity and love in my gaze...

  Lu Xiaoyu's head drooped down, her cheeks flushing with heat as she was seen by me.

  Hu Fei and her other roommates were laughing non-stop.

  I also quickly realized that I was out of place, and hastily took over the menu to hand it to Hu Fei, saying: "Here, sisters, take a look at what you like to eat, order for yourselves, don't be polite."

  Hu Fei took over the menu and smiled: "Hmph, our Xiaoyu has been deceived by you, of course we won't be polite, right, sisters?"

  "Right, right, no politeness, absolutely no politeness." Hu Fei's classmate Pan Ting also agreed.

  Although Pantene is not as pretty as Xiaoyu, she seems to be from a relatively wealthy family, so she dresses up and relies on her clothes to look good, making herself beautiful and charming.

  Zhao Ziyang's previous target was Lu Xiaoyu, but after seeing Lu Xiaoyu walking with me, he gave up on that idea. Now, he saw Panting and his eyes lit up instantly, eagerly finding topics to chat with Panting.

  As Zhao Ziyang and Pan Ting walked closer, Hu Fei rushed towards me with a smile: "Yifeng, you're really something! Our Xiaoyu was just cheated away, now your brother has his sights set on our 'shampoo'!"

  "Shampoo?" I didn't react in time.

  Pantene gently patted Hu Fei's back and said: "Shut up, don't talk nonsense, what shampoo." ??The Natural-Born Scoundrel 12

  It wasn't until later that I realized there was indeed a very famous shampoo called Pantene.

  It's estimated that when Pantene's parents named her, they didn't expect that years later there would be a shampoo with the same name as their daughter that would become popular.

  The girls in Xiaoyu's dormitory didn't stand on ceremony with me either, and the dishes were piled onto the table until it was full.

  Later on, Xiao Yu kept giving me apologetic glances and whispered beside me: "Yi Feng, I'm sorry. I didn't think they would order so much."

  The girls in Xiaoyu's dormitory are more and more cheerful, and their words are also very funny. I still get along with them better, so the money spent on this table of dishes is not a big deal.

  Actually, from young to old, I've never been very careful with money. My father probably felt guilty towards me too, and since our family's financial situation was quite good, he didn't bother to keep track of my spending either. So this might be the reason why I developed a habit of being extravagant with money.

  I waved my hand at Xiao Yu on the road and said, "It's okay, as long as everyone is happy, I really like making friends with them."

  "After dinner, everyone dispersed. Hu Fei pushed Lu Xiaoyu to my side and said: 'Yi Feng, our Xiaoyu is now in your care, you must take good care of her. Alright, we won't disturb the two of you anymore, we'll leave first.'"

  After everyone left, Lu Xiaoyu's face turned red and she said: "Yi Feng, don't listen to Hu Fei's nonsense."

  I mustered up the courage and pulled Lu Xiao Yu's hand saying: "Oh no, what if I really did it?"

  When I pulled her hand, she didn't resist, and upon hearing my words, she even buried her face lower. However, from her blushing cheeks, I could tell that she wasn't opposed to it; she was tacitly agreeing.

  I didn't pull Lu Xiaoyu back to school, but instead walked in the opposite direction of the school gate on a street.

  Yizhong is located in the southeast of Xingzhou. It's not a prosperous place, but the streets are very tidy and clean. There are two rows of green French plane trees along the road, and walking under the shade of the trees makes people feel refreshed and happy.

  At the same time, the southeastern part of the city is also a concentrated area of schools, and almost every street has one or two schools.

  There are many good schools here, such as No. 1 Middle School, No. 2 Middle School and "Huanli" key schools; there are also many bad schools here, such as No. 8 Middle School, Jinying, Xinnan, and Xinzhouchengwei School, which is notorious among the bad schools.

  But whether it's a good school or a bad school, there will always be troublemakers.

  I walked with Lu Xiaoyu along the road for over twenty minutes, and we exchanged no more than ten sentences in between. As for what was said, I can no longer recall.

  "Yi Feng, let's not go any further, up ahead is the police academy, those students are really wild, let's head back instead. You haven't even memorized today's English vocabulary yet." Suddenly, Xiao Yu grasped my palm and said as we walked a bit further.

  This school has a notorious reputation that I've also heard of, far more infamous than the Eighth Middle School. It's said that even the thugs here dare to fight with people from society.

  The incident of fighting and death at the school was not an isolated one, it had happened before, once even making it onto CCTV's Focus Interview, with several school leaders being removed from their posts as a result.

  I went for a walk with Lu Xiaoyu, but she didn't want to go any further, so we turned back.

  But when we turned around, we found that a group of students in their 70s and 80s were walking towards me, and the leader looked somewhat familiar.

  It wasn't until I walked close to that person that we finally recognized each other.

  "It's you!"

  "Who's this kid?"

  I spoke up at the same time as that person.

  Lu Xiaoyu saw me greeting that person and asked: "Do you know each other?"

  I smiled and said: "It's not just acquaintance, but rather too familiar."

  This is the Zhang Jin who beat me up during our middle school entrance exam.

  Zhang Jin looked at me and then at Lu Xiaoyu beside me, saying: "Is the kid studying in a police academy? Your girlfriend looks pretty good, what's her name? Why don't you introduce us?"

  It was probably because I appeared with Lu Xiaoyu near the school of medicine that Zhang Jin mistakenly took me for a student at the school of medicine.

  I clenched my fist and was about to strike, but was pulled back by Lu Xiaoyu beside me: "Yi Feng, don't bother with him, let's go."

  Lu Xiaoyu also saw that Zhang Jin and I were not friends at all, so she pulled me up and was about to leave.

  I was just about to leave when Zhang Jin and his brothers blocked my way.

  I couldn't help it anymore, but Lu Xiaoyu tightly grasped my hand and wouldn't let me act rashly.

  Just then, 7 or 8 people came from the direction of Wei School. One of them, who appeared to be the leader, shouted loudly: "You're really something, Zhang Jin! You dare to bully our students in front of the gate of our Wei School?"

  Upon hearing that voice, Zhang Jin couldn't help but furrow his brow and twitch the corner of his mouth as he turned around to say: "Scorpion, this is a private celebration between me and Xiao Zi, it has nothing to do with school."

  That school called Shoes heard another loud scolding: "Shut up, you don't know Zhang Jin's style of doing things? Besides *** nothing to do with anything, it's just *** nothing to do with anything. The one you hit isn't a 'private holiday' anymore?"

  Scorpion was relentless, Zhang Jin also cursed: "Damn it!"

  At that moment, several brothers around him also threw me aside and flocked to Zhang Jin, apparently ready to fight with the scorpion and others.

  The scorpion continued to walk towards us unhurriedly, while some students near the school also came over this way.

  "Hmph, today I'm admitting defeat. From now on, don't let me see you at the entrance of Ba Zhong Men again, Scorpion. You remember that."

  After finishing speaking, Zhang Jin led his men and fled in disarray.

  After seeing Zhang Jin leave, the people from Wei Xiao dispersed, but a few came over to greet Xie Zi. After hearing that Xie Zi was fine, they also took a glance in our direction before going their separate ways.

  As I saw Zhang Jin leaving, I was about to leave with Lu Xiaoyu when Scorpion yelled out: "Hey kid, I helped you and you don't even say thank you before leaving?"

  The other person also has a point, so I stopped and pulled Lu Xiaoyu to the side of the scorpion and said: "Thank you, Scorpion brother."

  The scorpion smiled and looked at me, then glanced at Lu Xiaoyu beside him and said, "You're from that class, you look unfamiliar, are you this year's new students?"

  "After some thought, I decided to tell the truth: 'Scorpion brother, actually we are not from Weixiao, I am from Yizhong, my girlfriend and I were taking a walk together, and happened to run into an arch-nemesis.'"

  Lu Xiaoyu heard that I said she was my girlfriend, although still shyly burying her face, but this time she gripped my palm tightly, as if responding to me.

  Upon hearing my words, the scorpion nodded: "Oh, a top student, so you're a good student."

  I had a good impression of this scorpion, at least I hurriedly thought he wasn't the kind of person who would bully others casually, so I also smiled and said: "I'm not a good student, my middle school exam score was only over 100 points."

  "Hmm? Over a hundred points, you went to No. 1 Middle School, what a waste, you should have come to our Wei School instead." Scorpion smiled and said.

  In my heart, it was a moment of speechlessness, if I were to choose a school based on this score, then only a vocational school would be able to admit me.

  The school has a notorious reputation for having no score requirement, which is also why the school is chaotic but can always attract students.

  The scorpion asked me a few more questions and then followed his brother to go online, while I followed Lu Xiaoyu to take a detour back to the middle school. As for why we took a detour, the reason is simple: we were afraid of running into Zhang Jin.
