5 min read1,134 words
Chen Yushu and Chu Mengyao did not go out but huddled together, watching an MP4. Inside, the cartoon "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" was playing, a show that Lin Yi found quite childish, but the two were thoroughly enjoying it, occasionally bursting into laughter.
Of course, the male students in the class who were studying did not resent their laughter; instead, they found it to be a heavenly sound that added a touch of freshness to their monotonous study life.
However, the girls did not think so highly of it. Some were jealous, some were disdainful, and some were indifferent. Regardless, most still envied the outstanding aura of Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu.
Lin Yi returned to his seat. During this time, Chen Yushu, who was watching the MP4, glanced up at Lin Yi and then lowered her head to continue watching the cartoon.
Kang Xiaobo quietly started doing his exercises, while Lin Yi idly flipped through the senior high school textbook.
Before the first class in the afternoon, Zhong Pinliang returned in a change of clothes, accompanied by Gao Xiaofu and Zhang Naipao, who had also changed and whose hair was still damp, clearly having just taken a shower.
As he entered the classroom, Zhong Pinliang glared at Lin Yi but did not say much, returning directly to his seat.
Today, Zhong Pinliang had lost face in front of everyone, especially in front of the girl he loved the most. This was the greatest humiliation he had ever experienced in his life! He would not let Lin Yi off, he vowed to himself.
He did not act against Lin Yi now not because he was patient, but because class was about to start in ten minutes, and the first class was taught by their homeroom teacher, Mr. Liu. He did not want to cause trouble at this time. He planned to find Lin Yi during self-study and make things difficult for him.
Seeing Zhong Pinliang, Chen Yushu couldn't help but think of the moment when Lin Yi had doused him with urine, and she couldn't help but chuckle. However, she blushed when she remembered the scene of Lin Yi pouring the water.
Zhong Pinliang naturally heard Chen Yushu's laughter and felt very uncomfortable. If it had been anyone else, he would have slapped them, but he didn't dare with Chen Yushu!
Others might not know, but Zhong Pinliang was very clear about Chen Yushu's background! He knew Wu Xiaocan, the bully from the previous senior class, who had started pursuing Chen Yushu at the beginning of his first year. After being rejected several times, Wu Xiaocan's thoughts began to twist.
During a school-organized movie screening, Wu Xiaocan took the opportunity to sit next to Chen Yushu and tried to touch her, but failed and was slapped twice by Chen Yushu.
Afterward, Wu Xiaocan publicly claimed that Chen Yushu had been dumped by him, that he was tired of her, and even said that she had had an abortion for him. Of course, most people understood that Wu Xiaocan was just sour grapes, and they didn't believe him. However, this still pushed Chen Yushu into the spotlight.
Chen Yushu, who had never experienced such humiliation, confronted Wu Xiaocan and slapped him in public. Wu Xiaocan then threatened her, saying that she should be careful after school because he would find people to gang up on her.
This incident was later known by Chen Yushu's brother, Chen Yuming, on a winter afternoon. Zhong Pinliang could never forget the scene.
A Land Rover stopped at the school gate, and a tall, muscular young man got out and directly found Wu Xiaocan, who was playing soccer on the playground.
Wu Xiaocan, not realizing the gravity of the situation, arrogantly told Chen Yuming that no one could do anything, asking what he was, just a soldier? He threatened Chen Yuming, saying that even if he was good at fighting, they were a group and could beat him to death.
Chen Yuming only said one sentence: go to the school radio station and apologize to Chen Yushu, and this matter would be over.
Wu Xiaocan laughed, a wild, derisive laugh. He had never heard such a ridiculous joke, and his cronies also burst into laughter.
Chen Yuming frowned, kicked Wu Xiaocan in the stomach, sending him flying, and then punched him, breaking his bones. Wu Xiaocan's cronies were terrified. Although they often fought, they had never seen anyone break bones on the first hit. This was a different level altogether.
Chen Yuming was truly angry. Chen Yushu had always been his precious little sister, and he had never let her suffer. Wu Xiaocan not only touched her inappropriately but also spread rumors and threatened her. This was something Chen Yuming could not tolerate.
Zhong Pinliang was also one of Wu Xiaocan's cronies at the time. He stood among the group, watching Wu Xiaocan scream like a pig being slaughtered. He was completely shocked. This terrifying scene even haunted his dreams for several days.
Wu Xiaocan's family was also quite powerful, which is why he could be so arrogant. However, when they learned that the person who beat him was a lieutenant general in the military, they became subdued.
No matter how powerful you were in the civilian world, you couldn't interfere with military affairs. Although the incident was reported to Chen Yuming's unit, he was only lightly disciplined, without any serious consequences.
This was just Chen Yuming's background. Later, Wu Xiaocan's family learned about Chen Yushu and Chen Yuming's parents and the Chen family patriarch in Beijing.
They were immediately terrified. While their son's behavior seemed like mere mischief, it could be considered harassment, defamation, and even molestation. If the Chen family really wanted to, Wu Xiaocan's life would be ruined.
Fortunately, Chen Yuming was magnanimous. After the Wu family brought gifts to apologize, Chen Yuming indicated that he would not pursue the matter further but also mentioned that Wu Xiaocan's behavior was detrimental to his sister's mental and physical health.
The Wu family was not foolish and immediately understood Chen Yuming's meaning. The next day, they arranged for Wu Xiaocan to transfer schools, and the incident was thus resolved.
Few people knew about this incident, but Zhong Pinliang was one of them. Even if he had a hundred lives, he would not dare to provoke Chen Yushu, the little lady. Thinking of Wu Xiaocan's state at the time, Zhong Pinliang shuddered involuntarily.
In reality, Zhong Pinliang was a bully who only picked on the weak. In the face of Chen Yuming's absolute strength, he did not dare to resist. Although his family had some power and his father had a few henchmen, they were no match for Chen Yuming, a professional soldier.
