The next day, after Song Xici transferred to Class 1, he discovered that Ren Shuhan had transferred schools.
Song Xici: Marmot roaring.jpg1This is simply some kind of reaction image, kinda like if you’d post a kitten crying or something in that genre, here it features a marmot because they look quite mad when they “roar”.
What on earth?!
And Song Xiyue had also transferred schools. How did the original plot change again? This couldn’t do it. Song Xici immediately took the time to reread the original novel. After all, it was a book centered around him, and even if the plot deviated, it would still develop in his direction. But as he read the book, he realized…
The Song Xiyue who had been completely ignored by him had also transferred schools yesterday and ended up in the same class as Ren Shuhan. They were seated in front and behind of each other.
The book didn’t elaborate much on this, quickly passing over the details. It seemed like even the author couldn’t find a reason to explain it. But the subsequent development was still good. Song Xici found Yi High School and had a fierce battle with Ren Shuhan, attracting the attention of students from both schools. In the end, Ren Shuhan found Song Xici interesting and discreetly agreed to keep his Omega status a secret.
Yeah, that’s also fine.
Moreover, this insignificant supporting character, Song Xiyue, unexpectedly added some drama to the story. He showed ingratitude to the Song family and changed his name to Jiang Qingyue, attempting to start anew. However, Song Xici exposed his true identity after arriving at Yi High School, leading to a satisfying moment of face-slapping.
That works too.
Tomorrow would be a day off, and there was no evening self-study after school today. Song Xici gathered a group of buddies and went to Yi High School to find someone.
However, he and his script didn’t anticipate that his halo would be gone. Yi High School, a school that didn’t advocate for joyful teaching, wouldn’t cancel evening self-study even if there was a day off. So, the security guard blocked all these foreign students at the gate, seeing them in their experimental school’s uniforms. “Why are you here wearing these uniforms?”
Song Xici was speechless, so he led his group of friends to the back of the school, where they took off their uniforms, and quietly climbed over.
That was an enormous amount of work, and once inside, they faced defeat without even fighting. They were covered in bruises because most of the students at Yi High School lived in dormitories. To prevent these students from climbing over the wall and going to internet cafes, the walls were lined with broken glass and barbed wire security nets. There were also many surveillance cameras. They couldn’t hide, but luckily the guards had gone to eat and didn’t see them.
Then they arrived at the playground during dinner time. These people mingled among the students at Yi High School, all wearing their uniforms, becoming the objects of attention.
“What are you staring at?” Little Brother A said. “Find Ren Shuhan and tell him to come over.”
A passing Yi High School student pushed up his glasses. “Who is Ren Shuhan?”
Little Brother B tugged at his ragged sleeve. “We look a bit shameful like this…”
Song Xici also felt a bit embarrassed. He grabbed the collar of the passing student and said, “It’s that Alpha who transferred to your class in the first year. Tell him to come out and face me in a one-on-one fight!”
“Oh…” That student turned and shouted towards the stands of the playground. “Brother Han, someone’s looking for you!”
Little Brother A: “You know who he is! Are you messing with me?”
“Hahaha,” the passing student ran away. “Who asked you to show off? Who else should I mess with if not you?”
Little Brother A: “You’re the one showing off! I’m a pure Alpha!”
Song Xici, who was someone pretending to be a Beta, heard this, and his temples throbbed with anger. “…Enough with the nonsense. Ren Shuhan, listen to me. I’m challenging you to a one-on-one fight today. If you lose, you have to agree to a condition of mine. Do you dare?”
Meanwhile, Ren Shuhan was sitting with Jiang Qingyue on the stands of the playground.
He had a fulfilling day today. Due to having multiple houses, he had arranged to stay near the Song family hospital last night. He woke up early and rode his bicycle to pick up his wife, enjoying a pleasant journey to school together. However, when he yawned, Jiang Qingyue asked if he hadn’t slept well. He admitted to staying up late playing games and felt a bit guilty, although he had actually stayed up late reviewing and studying.
During the day, Ren Shuhan was immersed in studying. During break time, he couldn’t bear to sleep and instead stood by Jiang Qingyue’s desk, teasing him. This drew murmurs of admiration from the classmates. This new high-quality Alpha was being too much. No one could approach him. The pair of lovebirds were feeding them throughout!
At lunch and dinner, Ren Shuhan ate with his wife. After eating, they took a nap, went for a walk, and now they were strolling around the playground, looking at the stars and the moon, discussing life and ideals. He had completely forgotten about Song Xici long ago. Now that he saw him, there were question marks all over his head.
“You——”
Ren Shuhan’s voice rose, expressing his question.
“I challenged you yesterday,” Song Xici stamped his foot in anger. “Were you so afraid you didn’t dare to come?”
“Oh,” Ren Shuhan nodded. “I remember, you’re Song Xici.”
Song Xici: “?”
His little brothers: “?”
…This is very “cold” of him.
You think he just forgot about the fight, but in reality, he doesn’t even remember who you are.
Jiang Qingyue was a bit worried. He grabbed the hem of Ren Shuhan’s clothes and whispered, “Don’t fight with him.”
“It’s okay,” Ren Shuhan ruffled his hair and approached, asking, “You said that if I win, you’ll agree to a condition?”
Song Xici was shocked: How could he be so intimate with his green tea2If you’re used to reading chinese novels, you’ve probably already gotten across the term green tea b*tch, it refers to people who pretend to be “sweet” and “innocent” but are dishonest and vicious in reality brother!
In which direction was the plot racing towards?
“If you can win, you can make any request,” Song Xici said confidently, although he felt a bit uncertain inside. “I have only one request if I win.”
He quickly checked the original novel and saw that the story hadn’t changed, so he approached Ren Shuhan head-on.
“Good.”
Ren Shuhan turned around and gave Jiang Qingyue a reassuring look.
Although in his past life Ren Shuhan was a movie star and had even performed in action films without using a body double, in this life, he was a school bully. He had memories and muscle memory, but he couldn’t guarantee that he would win every fight. However…
Ren Shuhan had a strange intuition that he couldn’t possibly lose if it came down to a physical fight.
And his intuition turned out to be correct, even exaggeratedly so.
Song Xici didn’t even last two moves against him!
Falling down, Song Xici was also astonished. He noticed that Ren Shuhan hesitated in his initial movements, unsure of something, so he quickly used wrestling techniques to grab his clothes. However, Ren Shuhan grabbed his head with one hand and threw him to the ground, rendering him unable to move.
Shit, was he a monster? Why was he so strong!
The original novel had deceived him again! What happened to going easy on him?
Ren Shuhan himself was a bit puzzled:
The system didn’t seem to have this standby function? Why were his original stats so off the charts?
In that split second when he had doubts, he considered whether or not to go easy on him. He was afraid of hurting the person and causing trouble if he ended up being falsely accused. As a result, using only a fraction of his strength, not even reaching the level of warming up, Song Xici was already defeated. Thankfully, he had gone easy on him…
“You lost,” Ren Shuhan let go and said, “My condition is…”
“Wait!” Song Xici was still in a daze.
“You want to play dirty?” Ren Shuhan glanced around.
Following his gaze, Song Xici saw that a crowd had already gathered around them. His little brothers stood there dumbfounded, while the students from Yi High School were treating it as a spectacle and discussing the situation:
“Why are these people wearing tattered clothes?”
“I heard that Brother Han was the school bully at his old High School, but I didn’t expect him to be so ruthless and beat these people up like this…”
“That’s not it! These people tore their own clothes climbing over the wall, and Brother Han only made one move.”
“What’s wrong with them? Brother Han has already transferred to our school, but they still came here looking for a fight. Did they lose their minds?”
“I know him, he’s Song Xici from Shiyan High School. His older brother is Song Xishi, the senior at Q University. The Song family is quite formidable, so why is his younger brother like this?”
“Brother Han’s knockout move was so cool! He must have trained for it! He’s so strong, like a martial arts master!”
All the evaluations that Song Xici had heard before were now being applied to him. He felt embarrassed and angry, his face turning red. He couldn’t find any words to refute them, so he pointed at Jiang Qingyue and shouted, “Do you all know who he is?”
Ren Shuhan immediately stood in front of Jiang Qingyue, making everyone think he was referring to himself, and he warned Song Xici in a low voice, “I won, and my request is that from now on, you forget about Song Xiyue and all the entanglements between you two. If you still have any face left, I advise you to follow through on your words and not let me lay a hand on you.”
He actually spoke up for Song Xiyue! Song Xici was even more shocked, and he was frightened by the look in Ren Shuhan’s eyes, causing his heart to skip a beat. He could only nod.
Coincidentally, the P.E. teacher who was supervising the soccer field had also arrived.
“What are you all doing? Which school are you from? Get out of here!” The teacher naturally addressed the students from their own school, who were full of energy and excitement. He chased them out one by one, saying, “Disperse! If you don’t leave, I’ll call your parents!”
In the end, this group of people was driven out of Yi High School.
As Ren Shuhan walked out of the playground, he passed by a water basin and washed his hands carefully. Jiang Qingyue seemed to have something to say to him as he fidgeted, looking around and biting his lip. He looked incredibly adorable, either pursing his lips or biting them.
After hesitating all the way, when they sat down in the classroom, Jiang Qingyue saw Ren Shuhan take out a pillow, seemingly ready to take a nap, and gathered the courage to ask, “Um, what request did you make to him just now?”
He hadn’t heard clearly.
Ren Shuhan smiled and said, “Guess.”
Jiang Qingyue widened his eyes and asked excitedly, “Does it have something to do with me?”
“Well,” Ren Shuhan didn’t want to tease him too much, “I asked him to forget about you from now on.”
Jiang Qingyue was shocked for a moment, feeling both touched and guilty. He stammered, “People used to say that I’ve done many bad things to him…”
He didn’t want Ren Shuhan to know about that side of himself.
“It’s okay,” Ren Shuhan said, “You can’t even remember it clearly, right? Trust me, the person you were before wasn’t you. You don’t owe him anything anymore.”
Jiang Qingyue lowered his head, his hair covering his expression. He softly said, “Thank you,” then he turned back to his book.
Ren Shuhan watched his blushing ears from behind and felt content. Today, he had taken care of the unresolved issues of the past, and he felt pretty good about it. Unexpectedly, when they left the school gate in the evening, Song Xici was still waiting for him there, squatting down.
“I want to talk to you alone,” Song Xici insisted, “Just one thing.”
Ren Shuhan could only walk a few steps forward with him.
Jiang Qingyue and the group of little brothers waited behind, curious about what they would say.
Song Xici’s cheeks were abnormally red, and he held his neck, as mango-scented pheromones spread out. He stammered, “I had a reason for losing today…”
It was the second time Ren Shuhan smelled that scent, and the feeling of nausea intensified. Suddenly, he bent down and vomited.
Jiang Qingyue and the little brothers nearby: “?”
“The walls were lined with broken glass and barbed wire security nets” Dear Principal Yi, you don’t have a school, you have a freaking prison _:(´ཀ`」 ∠):_ I mean broken glass?
Also, he vomited after smelling his pheromones… That’s brutal ヽ(・∀・)ノ
