Watching Ye Liangchen’s retreating figure, akin to fleeing, Long Aotian could only helplessly turn back to his classroom. Just as he turned around, he caught sight of a worried-looking Hu Yuying behind him. “That guy seemed really scared of me; he ran off the moment he saw me.”
Hu Yuying looked anxiously at Long Aotian, “Long, could you please not get into fights?”
Earlier, Hu Yuying was genuinely scared that Long might start a fight.
She had once heard from Wang Shuo, that if Long got into a fight, he’d be punished.
At this point in time, if he was suspended and forced to go home, his academic future would be in jeopardy.
So she hurried over.
Thankfully, Ye Liangchen was directly intimidated away by Long’s imposing persona.
“Fight?” Long Aotian looked at Hu Yuying with amusement, “Do I look like someone who loves to fight?”
The surrounding classmates heard this and clenched their jaws tightly. Some nodded imperceptibly.
Internally, they sighed in exasperation. If he doesn’t love fighting, then there is no one who loves to fight in this world!
Much to their shock, the new transfer student, Hu Yuying, shook her head.
What did that imply?
It implied that Hu Yuying actually believed Long Aotian to be someone who didn’t enjoy fighting, an utterly insane conclusion!
Especially for Wang Shuo, he really wanted to expose Long’s true nature to Hu Yuying - a person who roughens up anyone who so slightly annoys him in the restroom.
The underlying cause being trivial – if someone’s peeing was louder than his...
While he was perhaps mean, Long was completely wicked!
“Isn't that what we have concluded? I only wanted to communicate some sense into him, telling him that snapping pictures of a girl's house carelessly is wrong.”
“Never expected him to run that fast.”
After saying this, Long Aotian couldn’t help but wonder why everyone in the classroom was giving him peculiar looks.
Realizing Long’s gaze, everyone in the class subtly looked away, continuing to pretend to study.
Inwardly, everyone sniggered. Did it not occur to him as to why the guy ran away so swiftly?
“Let it be, let's go eat in the canteen.”
Hu Yuying nodded, “I'll get the meal card.”
“Why fetch the meal card? You're tutoring me, so I'll offer you lunch, as simple as that.”
“Or else people might think I, Long Aotian, am taking advantage of a girl.” Long stated outright.
Hu Yuying hesitated for a moment, before feeling a sharp pain on her head.
Long Aotian raised his fist, “Don’t be stubborn, or I'll thump you!”
“I returned your pen earlier, you lent me your notes; that's because you didn’t want to owe me anything. You're tutoring me; I'm treating you lunch – it's likewise on a mental level.”
“So, could you quit your unnecessary talk? You're as annoying as a monk, killing me with your noise!”
“Okay okay, Long, wait for a moment, I’ll get something." Hu Yuying said, noticing the raised fist, she quickly shielded her head, "It's a pickle."
Fetching her pickles, she obediently followed Long Aotian downstairs, towards the canteen.
“Do you guys think Long Aotian, likes Hu Yuying?”
“Is it possible, he likes Hu Yuying, therefore, he intends to amend his wrongdoings for her?”
"Yes, I think it is so. Long Aotian has been in this school for three years, always taking pleasure in bullying others. Hu Yuying is the first person he actively helped!"
At this point, everyone's gaze fell on Wang Shuo.
Feeling the stare, "What are you looking at me for? I've already apologized to Hu Yuying!"
"And besides, Hu Yuying is so innocent and purely cute, who wouldn't want to tease her a bit..."
Here, Wang Shuo hesitated a little, "But I think Long Aotian might really like Hu Yuying, otherwise he wouldn't have held back earlier and just attacked."
At this, some girls didn't entirely agree.
"But Hu Yuying is a top student. With Long Aotian's current grades, it's not even certain he could get into college. There's a huge gap between them."
The speaker was a female student who had previously been discussing maths and chemistry problems with Hu Yuying.
Hu Yuying's problem-solving approach was incredibly clear.
On today's exam, nearly all the challenging questions they discussed together were correctly solved by Hu Yuying.
Even the best guy in our class can't achieve that, let alone Long Aotian, the last one.
It's no wonder Long Aotian started studying hard.
"But do you think Long Aotian stands a chance?"
"We'll see after this test, right?"
At this point, everyone in the class began to look forward to the exam results in the afternoon.
....
Elsewhere.
After reaching the cafeteria, Ye Liangchen was still seething.
Gao Quan, who had been waiting for him with food, was puzzled.
Seeing Ye Liangchen's red face due to anger, Gao Quan asked in a low voice, "Brother Chen, what's up with you?"
Ye Liangchen took a few deep breaths, closed his eyes and inhaled deeply, managing to calm down.
"It's nothing, I just went to see Long Aotian!"
Hearing this, Gao Quan hesitated, then linked Ye Liangchen's visit to Long Aotian with Li Qingxue, "Brother Chen, you didn't go to find trouble with Long Aotian because of Li Qingxue did you?"
"Are you okay? Did he hit you?"
Having said that!
Ye Liangchen blinked, his eyes lit up, then continued along Gao Quan's words, "Well, even though I've given up pursuing Qingxue, I can't just let things go considering we've been friends for so many years."
"Oh my god, Brother Chen, you're too cool! You said that you don't care about Li Qingxue, and the next second you went looking for Long Aotian..."
Seeing the admiration in Gao Quan's eyes, Ye Liangchen sat up straight, adjusted his school uniform collar, and said, "Don't tell anyone else about this."
"Ok, don't worry, Brother Chen. Since you want to protect Li Qingxue quietly, I won't say anything!"
Ye Liangchen's mouth twitched, feeling that Gao Quan was too honest. He didn't tell him, so he really wasn't going to say anything?
If you don't tell her, how can Li Qingxue know that I went to see Long Aotian because of her?
Immediately, he cleared his throat lightly, "I just want to keep a low profile. Actually, you could secretly tell Li Qingxue's desk mate to have Wang Rui keep an eye out. If Long Aotian dares to approach Li Qingxue again, she can inform me promptly!"
"Alright!" Gao Quan earnestly nodded his head.
No sooner had he spoken, his eyes darted towards the canteen entrance.
"Brother Chen," he murmured, "Long Aotian is here, he isn't coming for you, right?"
Hearing this, Ye Liangchen instinctively turned to look at the canteen entrance.
Sure enough, Long Aotian walked in, trailing behind was Hu Yuying.
He swiftly turned back, clenching his fist tightly.
Damn it!
He knew he shouldn't have provoked Long Aotian. That guy is like a rabid dog, once he bites, he doesn't let go!
"Don't look!" Ye Liangchen said to Gao Quan.
As long as he didn't make eye contact with Long Aotian, Long Aotian wouldn't notice him.
After all, with so many people in the canteen and his back turned, it was impossible for him to pinpoint him specifically!
After waiting a while, Ye Liangchen asked in a low voice, "Where's Long Aotian now?"
"He's sitting down to eat with a really pretty girl," Gao Quan replied, eyes glued to Hu Yuying, unable to resist stealing a few more glances.
The first two times Hu Yuying had been following behind Long Aotian, her head always bowed low.
It was hard to get a clear look at her.
But today was different. She was smiling.
Her delicate and soft features exuded an indescribable purity.
Especially when she smiled, her allure mixed with an irresistible charm.
You're completely caught off guard, wanting to steal another look.
It seemed that everything around her became insignificant in the face of her smile.
Seeing Gao Quan's reactions, Ye Liangchen couldn't help but find it amusing.
If he were to tell him that Hu Yuying would eventually be his wife, he'd probably be dumbfounded!
It's only natural for people to take a second look at beautiful things.
This is something you can't prevent.
However, if this treasure of a girl only had eyes for him, it would surely make countless others envious of him...

He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples.
