A Round Trip To Love Volume 1 Chapter 16 129 Mar 01, 2020

" Another couple!" The disciplinary master exclaimed, " Outrageous, kids these days are all more interested in dating than studying! How are you going to get a place in college this way!"

My heart was beating like a drum, hands and feet turned icy cold.

" Lu Feng, move your hands away, there's no point trying to block, you will both be reported!"

Lu Feng did not give up on trying to hide my face: " This has nothing to do with him, I forced him into it…… just book me double demerits."

Him and her sounds the same in Chinese language, how conveniently imprecise.

That irked the disciplinary master and he shouted in fury: " Stop trying to be a hero! Girl, please raise your head! How many times have warnings been issued on this no-dating rule, raise your head now!"

Lu Feng stubbornly sheltered me with his arms, I feel bad that he had to defend me as if his own life is on the line.

The piercing light of the torch eventually exposed me.

The surrounding air fell into dead silence.

If I were in any mood to have a sense of humor, I would have laughed at the comical expression on the disciplinary master.

They were hard pressed to come up with a course of discipline, as there were no precedence on same sex dating. Those old fashioned and conservative disciplinary fellows was in a dilemma having had no experience in such matters.

We would not be able to get away with it this time no matter how liberal or lenient they decided to be. Informing the parents was unavoidable. As for Lu Feng's father, we could only guess what his reaction might be, however as for my father, he would never let me off easy.

Before our parents made their way down, the school had no idea how to deal with us. Leaving us to return to the boys' dormitory may cause alarm and chaos, going to the girls' dormitory was simply out of the question. In the midst of this confusion, Lu Feng took me out of the school.

We found a pub and went in for a rest, Lu Feng started drinking in silence, hanging on to my hand not letting go of me. We were both startled beyond comprehension at this impending disaster, but he remained steadier than me.

" I will not allow you to get expelled from school. " when he spoke those words, his expression was so determined yet optimistic, " If they ask, just say that I forced you into this. At worst, I will transfer to another school. I can always sneak over to see you whenever I get the chance. It will be alright, we will just endure for another year and a half, then we can be free to be together in college."

Of course I was aware that he was only trying to comfort me, but who would have been so hard-hearted as to expose such white lies.

" Don't cry anymore, as long as my dad doesn't kill me, we will have the chance to see each other again, am I right?"

I rubbed my tears away and summoned all my confidence to reveal a smile.

" Isn't this Lu Feng, holding hands with a boy, are you disgusting or what?"

Lu Feng raised his head and glared at the person talking with loathing. This person had a gang of delinquents behind him.

I know this person too, being the gang leader at K middle school, by the name of Yang Wei, a ridiculous name fitting a ridiculous person.

" What's with that stare? Pissed off? You wanna fight, just come, a weak faggot like you do you think I would be scared of you?"

I heard Lu Feng cracking his knuckles.

If he had provoked Lu Feng in an one on one situation, he would have been pounded until he had to retrieve all his teeth from the floor. Taking advantage of the fact that numbers are on his side, his cowardly mouth had become complete trash.

" Lu Feng, let's go." I think he understood the situation we were in was already extremely dire, to add another degree of physical altercation to it would be akin to adding fuel on fire.

Yang Wei evaluated me from head to toe and said with contempt in his eyes: "Lu Feng, this is the gay you are messing around with? So skinny what's there to play with. Where do you play him? His dick?"

I did not react fast enough to hold back Lu Feng, and could only see his fist punch out in a flash. The muscles on Yang Wei's face collapsed in a laughable way, morphing into a bloody mess.

" Good, good! You have the guts." Yang Wei gritted his teeth and made a hand gesture, " You guys, beat the shit out of these two!"

Everyone in the pub scattered away like flies, even the boss went into hiding. The group of delinquents surrounded Lu Feng punching and kicking. I am useless in fights, and could not help him at all, almost mad with anxiety I made an escape eyeing the telephone placed on a stage.

" Are you trying to call the police, that would be useless." Yang Wei held onto my wrist, " You seem to be very concerned about him, does Lu Feng do you so good that you are addicted to it?"

" Shut up you motherfucker!" This must be the first time I used such strong vulgarities on someone, indeed gratifying. Yang Wei's expression changed and he grabbed onto me: " I'll strip you naked, and see if you can still talk shit!"

" You sick bastard!"

" I want to see if you are any different from a man, maybe you are a transsexual ? If Lu Feng can do you, why can't I?"

" Fuck off!" I completely lost it when he pulled on my clothes, " Get lost, take your hands away from me…… you beast, let go!"

He smiled with a perverse glee , reaching out to remove my pants.

" Lu Feng, Lu Feng!! I madly struggled, " No, Lu Feng!!"

I must have been mad with shock to have called Lu Feng in such a desperate tone. If I can turn back time, I would never have made any noise. Yang Wei was clearly only trying to aggravate us, he would not have literally done anything. Even if he had indeed assaulted me, I should not have alarmed Lu Feng. I did not realize how scared I must have sounded to him at that time.

The sound of a loud crash followed the sight of a beer bottle shattering. One moment Yang Wei was pressing down on me and the next moment he was pulled up by the collar, head covered with beer foam and glass bits.

" You fucking dare to hit me?! Watch me rape this little faggot………"

Lu Feng's red rimmed eyes took one look at my disheveled clothes , and a primal expression unfolded on his face.

I heard a stabbing sound, and saw blood spilling out of Yang Wei's abdomen.

Yang Wei gurgled in his throat for a while, and fell flat on his back.

Screams exploded everywhere. Those little gangsters turned green from shock, blindly yelling: " Murder! Someone is killed! Murder!"

Lu Feng was still holding the broken bottle covered with blood, his face cold as metal. He looked at me, and I looked back at him. Both faces revealing complete helplessness.

That was in the year 1998. I was 15, Lu Feng was 19. The things that we had to bear at that age far exceeded our capabilities to.
