Chapter 5

It's easy to find old students, Liu Yina is one of them, and she just added me on WeChat, didn't she?

I asked her: Is Monkey doing well?

Liu Yina: Monkey isn't doing well, but the leader of the Nine Princes gives him a lot of face.

Me: Why?

Liu Yina: In the third year of junior high, Monkey just transferred to our school, and the leader of the Nine Princes came to collect protection money from him.

Me: Then what happened?

Liu Yina: Monkey stabbed their leader with a knife, and no one has dared to collect protection money from him since then.

I understood, no wonder Monkey is a loner, without any brothers, and the Nine Princes are so afraid of him! In this world, the fierce fear the reckless, and the reckless fear those who don't care about their lives!

After hearing Monkey's story, I suddenly admired him a lot and really wanted to see him right away. I called him, and he was at the internet cafe. I said I would come to find him, and he said: Sure, come on over, and bring me two jianbing guozi, I haven't had breakfast yet.

I:

I rushed to the internet cafe with two steaming hot jianbing guozi, and Monkey was eating, cursing, and playing games at the same time.

I watched him play happily, and Monkey glanced at me and said: What are you looking at me for? I don't do that kind of thing.

I was about to speak when I saw Lin Ke'er come in. I was surprised, not expecting her to be at the internet cafe. I was about to stand up to greet her when I saw her walk to another computer and hand over a bottle of water.

A boy was sitting at the computer, quite handsome, whom I had seen last night, it was Xing Qiu. It turned out Lin Ke'er was there to bring him water. For some reason, I felt a pang of jealousy. Lin Ke'er even leaned down to talk to him, and their faces were hidden by the screen, imagining how intimate it must be. I felt a bit jealous and didn't go up to greet her, just sat down.

Monkey didn't know, he was still playing the game enthusiastically.

I didn't want to look at them, but my eyes kept glancing over. Lin Ke'er finished talking, straightened up, and was about to leave when I saw Xing Qiu touch her leg. My heart felt like it was hit, suddenly feeling incredibly sad.

But the next scene stunned me even more. Lin Ke'er turned around and kicked Xing Qiu hard, and he fell off his chair. Lin Ke'er pointed at him, seemed to say something, and then ran away.

I quickly stood up and chased after her.

Lin Ke'er hadn't gone far, I walked a few steps and grabbed her arm.

She turned around, her face streaked with tears.

Why are you here? Lin Ke'er was surprised.

I said: I'm at the internet cafe. After a pause, I added: I saw it.

Lin Ke'er lowered her head, her shoulders trembling slightly.

I put my hands on her shoulders: Xing Qiu isn't a good person, right?

Lin Ke'er was silent for a long time before saying: It happened a couple of times.

Then why did you bring him water?

Zhang Xuan asked me to bring it, she had something to do and couldn't come.

Oh. I realized: Zhang Xuan and Xing Qiu are a couple? Xing Qiu touched you, and Zhang Xuan doesn't know?

Lin Ke'er shook her head: I don't dare to let her know, she really, really likes Xing Qiu, I'm afraid...

Before she could finish, I grabbed her hand and walked back into the internet cafe!

What are you doing, Zuo Fei?! Lin Ke'er called out.

I ignored her and insisted on pulling her.

Are you going to find Xing Qiu? I'm not going, it will be very embarrassing if we fight! Lin Ke'er struggled hard, and passersby looked over.

I stopped and said to her: Don't talk nonsense, listen to me from now on!

Lin Ke'er was scared and didn't dare to say another word.

I found a brick on the roadside, pulled Lin Ke'er into the internet cafe, and went straight to Xing Qiu's table. Xing Qiu was still playing games and didn't notice us. I threw the brick on his keyboard.

Xing Qiu jumped up: What are you doing? At the same time, several people stood up next to him.

I was startled, thinking he was alone, but he had a few brothers with him, no wonder he was one of the Nine Princes.

I tried to stay calm and narrowed my eyes: What do you think I'm doing, don't you know?

Xing Qiu looked at Lin Ke'er behind me and seemed to understand: A knight in shining armor, huh.

The internet cafe was quiet, and many people looked over.

Don't talk nonsense, there are so many people here, I'll give you some face and won't mention what just happened. But I warn you, if it happens again, you'll end up like that hairy guy!

Xing Qiu's face turned red: Go to hell, who do you think you are, do you have the right to lecture me?

As soon as he finished speaking, his brothers surrounded us, ready to fight. I suddenly regretted throwing the brick on his keyboard to show off, otherwise, I would have had a weapon in my hand.

Seeing I didn't speak, Xing Qiu felt more confident: Speak up, what right do you have?

Just because he's my brother. Monkey suddenly walked over slowly.

Seeing Monkey, Xing Qiu's face turned pale: Monkey, you're here too.

Monkey glanced at Xing Qiu and said: I don't know why Zuo Fei cursed you, but I know you did something wrong. When you do something wrong, you should be punished. How about you leave the internet cafe now?

Xing Qiu's face turned red again: What do you mean?

I don't mean anything, just want you to leave the internet cafe because my brother doesn't like you.

I looked at Monkey in surprise, he was so much like Binzi, always unconditionally protecting his brothers!

Monkey, that's enough! Xing Qiu shouted: Don't think Big Cat gives you face, we Nine Princes are all afraid of you!

Heh, if you're not afraid of me, hit me. Monkey took a step forward.

Xing Qiu trembled with anger but didn't dare to hit him.

Or do you want Big Cat to hit me? A smile played on Monkey's lips, a light, cold smile.

Xing Qiu still didn't speak, his face turning bright red.

I said yesterday, none of you Nine Princes are good. Monkey pointed at him: Leave on your own, this is White Sir's internet cafe, I don't want to dirty his place.

Xing Qiu's cheeks trembled, clearly in extreme anger. I was worried he would lash out and really fight with Monkey, so I kept my eyes on the brick on the keyboard, ready to pick it up at any moment.

But in the end, Xing Qiu did nothing, lowered his head, and left, his brothers following him out.

Monkey patted my shoulder: Alright, throw the brick out, don't bring weapons in next time.

Okay, I'll see Lin Ke'er off. I picked up the brick and pulled Lin Ke'er out.

Outside the internet cafe, I let go of Lin Ke'er and said: If he bothers you again, tell me.

Lin Ke'er smiled: Should I tell you or Monkey?

I scratched my head, embarrassed: Either one is fine.

Alright, I won't tease you, you two are both so cool. Lin Ke'er shook my arm: I'm going now.

Watching Lin Ke'er walk away, I threw the brick away and hurried back to find Monkey.

Monkey was already playing, cursing as usual, one moment cursing Henan people for being cheats, the next cursing Shanghai people for being sissies, then cursing Guangdong people for being foodies, then cursing Beijing people for being idiots, then cursing Shanxi people for being bumpkins, and in a short time, he cursed the whole country.

Taking advantage of his break, I quickly said: Monkey, thanks.

Monkey took off his headphones and said: Lunch is on you.

I'll pay for it! I said confidently.

The money you borrowed yesterday

You don't have to pay it back! I continued confidently.

Ha, good brother! Monkey laughed.

I also started a computer and played. At noon, Monkey and I went out for a bowl of noodles. After eating, Monkey said he needed to go back to sleep, as he had been up for three days straight. I accompanied him back to the dormitory.

Just as we reached the dormitory building, Monkey said: I can't hold on, Zuo Fei.

I was puzzled about what he couldn't hold on to, and then he sat on the ground, leaned against a trash can, and fell asleep.

I was speechless and had to carry him back to room 305. The door wasn't locked, but no one was inside, I didn't know why his dorm was always empty. I took off Monkey's clothes and shoes, put him in bed, and left.

In the afternoon, we had military training, and I, as usual, just watched, sitting under a big tree and playing with my phone. This was the benefit of having a bandage on my head.

Our class and Lin Ke'er's class stood facing each other for military posture. I played games for a while, then looked up at Lin Ke'er. She would smile at me when the instructor wasn't looking, and I really liked this ambiguous feeling.

During the break, Lin Ke'er came to talk to me, and Liu Yina also came to talk to me. Being surrounded by two beautiful girls felt amazing, and envious looks came from all around. Yesterday, I was crawling on the ground, and today I was on top, this speed was faster than a rocket. But as they talked, they started chatting with each other about their school, and I couldn't join in at all. I heard Liu Yina say: Ke'er, join our Twelve Roses, and no one will dare to bully you.

Lin Ke'er nodded: Zhang Xuan said the same thing, but I need to think about it.

What's there to think about, we'll back you up from now on. Liu Yina put her arm around Lin Ke'er's waist.

I was shocked to hear this, always hearing that the Twelve Roses were a group of delinquent girls, and it turned out Liu Yina was one of them, and now Lin Ke'er was also planning to join!

Ke'er, Yina! Another voice called out.

I turned around and saw the pretty girl from last night, Zhang Xuan, smiling and walking over.

Zhang Xuan, Zhang Xuan. Lin Ke'er and Liu Yina stood up, and the three girls held hands affectionately.

Xing Qiu followed behind slowly. I glared at him, but he had a bright smile, as if nothing had happened.

Ke'er, have you decided, join our Twelve Roses? Zhang Xuan blinked.

It turned out Zhang Xuan was also part of the Twelve Roses! I wondered if all the beautiful girls in this school were members of the Twelve Roses?

Ah, Lin Ke'er rubbed her head: Can you let me think about it?

Join, join, no one will dare to bully you! Zhang Xuan laughed.

Really, even I won't dare to bully you! Xing Qiu laughed loudly.

He actually had the nerve to say it! I looked at him in disbelief, but he seemed very calm.
