Apparently, there's another person translating this(just found out today), though there's only 6 chapters there and they're on semi-hiatus.
Anyway, I'll still continue this(hopefully) even though my translation ain't that good lol. Also, I changed the title so that it matches the one on novel updates.

Even though the sun was shining outside, Chi Yu's house was still terrifyingly dark.
The screen of the mobile phone lights up, and there are simple words on it: The school test results are up, and the parent meeting will be held by Sister Zhang.
Chi Yu was brushing his teeth, glanced at the words on the phone, and his face darkened a few degrees. He wiped his face indiscriminately, carried his bag and walked out of the bedroom, directly ignoring the rich breakfast on the dining table, took out a piece of toast from the refrigerator and bit it in his mouth, and walked out the door without looking back.
This noon, every class is noisy. Lin Chuan squeezed among his classmates and stretched his neck to look at the ranking table posted on the wall. He looked at the last one on the list, and when he saw Chi Yu lined up below him, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, Chi Yu is performing normally. If he falls short of the standard, it will be me who will be beaten at home..." Lin Chuan's feelings for Chi Yu are different from others. The penultimate preparation for the exam. But who knew that there was Chi Yu, the bottom king in the class, who drew cartoons in the Chinese exam, did graffiti in the math exam, and was a joker in the English exam.
Before this division of arts and sciences, Lin Chuan prayed at home every day. This time, he must be in the same class as Chi Yu. He would rather be ravaged by Chi Yu every day. Fortunately, God finally listened to him this time. When Lin Chuan saw Chi Yu's mighty face appear in the classroom, he covered his mouth and almost cried out with joy.
Lin Chuan looked at Fu Zhian, who was sitting in the last row with his head down and reading. After thinking about it, he looked back at the ranking table, and he couldn't help sighing. Nüwa must have put a lot of effort into making Fu Zhian, and it is estimated that she had molded his(FZ) face for more than an hour. Compared with Fu Zhian, he is like a mud idea thrown by Nüwa [1].
When Chi Yu walked to the door of the classroom, he found that the front door was crowded with people.
"Step aside." The students crowded at the front door all raised their heads to look at Chi Yu, who was expressionless when they saw his face.
"Brother Chi, I'll help you see the ranking. Although it's still the last place, the chemistry is 2 points higher than last time!"
Chi Yu frowned and walked around him, saying indifferently, "Go away."
Wang Xiao was not annoyed, and happily replied, "Yes."
Until the big class break, Chi Yu, who was lying on the table, didn't raise his head. Even the sleeves of Fu Zhian's school uniform wiped off the chalk lines on the table, Chi Yu just glanced at it lightly and closed his eyes again. Lin Jing stood at the back door and watched for a long time, but walked into the classroom and patted the boy on the shoulder.
"Chi Yu, come out for a moment." The boy's blank eyes were faintly dark blue, and Lin Jing felt a little distressed by his slightly tired face. She lowered her voice as much as possible and smiled at Chi Yu: "The gym is now being investigated, you..."
"He donated money again?" The sneer made Lin Jing feel uncomfortable.
Lin Jing looked at Chi Yu with seriousness, and she said a little more seriously: "Chi Yu, don't talk to me in such a tone, you kicked down the door of the gymnasium and your family should pay for repairs, and you should pay for Li Zhiyi. The bridge of my nose is broken."
Lin Jing's original intention to educate was stuck in her throat, no matter how many trouble Chi Yu does, the First Affiliated High School will not easily expel him. Not only will he not be expelled, but the school also wants Chi Yu to cause trouble every day. As long as the matter is not too big, a fight and a class absence are considered trivial matters. It's like a double-edged sword. When Chi Yu commits a crime on the front foot, the financial office on the back foot can receive sponsorship from the Chi family. He usually gets in the way, but they are really a bit reluctant to let him get out.
Lin Jing's embarrassed expression was expected by Chi Yu. He looked at Lin Jing who was speechless for a long time, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "If you are very upset, you can call my parents." Chi Yu walked to the back door and stopped. After getting down, he continued: "That is, if someone will come."
Fu Zhian could just see the boy's good-looking profile through the window. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, looking arrogant and indomitable. Because the expression on his face is so annoying, many people ignore the gloom and powerlessness in his eyes. He walked into the classroom with rambling steps, sat down on a chair and fell asleep with his face covered.
Until the bell rang for the end to get out of class, there was no movement except the slight ups and downs of the boy's body.
Fu Zhian packed his schoolbag, looked at Chi Yu lying on the table, pursed his lips, stood up and walked out of the classroom. Just as he was walking around the corner, a hand suddenly grabbed his back collar, and the boy's voice was cold: "You ran so fast, I'm in time to go to the grave."
Turning back, the boy's deep and clean eyebrows were reflected in his black pupils, and his face was a little pale. Chi Yu withdrew his hand, grabbed his backpack and put it on his shoulders. He took a few steps forward and saw that he didn't keep up. He tilted his head a little impatiently: "Are you still waiting for this master to carry you?"
The playground was full. It was a student who was hurrying to practice the physical education exam. When Chi Yu and Fu Zhian walked on the campus one after the other, they attracted the attention of many people. Regardless of whether it is true or false, Fu Zhian's unrequited love for Chi Yu is breaking news. After all, the only two boys in the school who can watch the scandal broke out, which is a good thing for the girls in the school.
Anyway, if you can't get it for yourself, then no one would also have the chance. They didn't pull down each other, if they were together, they must be CP[3] fans who cheered(for FZ and CY being together).
Fu Zhian followed Chi Yu with a blank face. He stared a hole in the back of Chi Yu's head until the boy in front of him stopped.
The girl in a long white dress looked at Chi Yu in front of her with a smile, and it seemed that honey was about to melt between her brows.
"I waited for you for a long time." The girl walked over, raised her hand gently, and took Chi Yu's arm.
"I'll go." Wang Xiao jumped out from nowhere, he stood beside Fu Zhian and looked around with his head sticking out. Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Chi Yu's indifferent profile, he shook his head and said, "Brother Chi is really amazing, a beauty of this level can't move like a mountain."
Chi Yu frowned, looked down at the girl's climbing arm, expression cold but did not shake off. Too far away, Fu Zhian only saw the girl's mouth open and closed, and the folds at the corners of her eyes seemed to be innocent. Wang Xiao was making a lot of noise in his ears, but he couldn't hear anything at the moment.
Something seemed to explode in his heart, disrupting his breathing rhythm and his always calm brain.
"Wang Xiao." Fu Zhian spoke coldly, causing Wang Xiao to stop in a hurry. Fu Zhian twitched the corners of his mouth and showed a proper smile: "I still have something to do, I'll go first."
Without waiting for Wang Xiao to say anything, Fu Zhian turned around and took a step towards the other side. He took a deep breath until the sound of small footsteps was heard behind him.
"Where are you going?" Chi Yu's tone was very bad, and the gloomy face in the past looked even more indifferent now, which made Fu Zhian feel dazzled.
He tore off the schoolbag in Chi Yu's hand, and spit out a few words: "Going home."
"You've gone the other way, you won't be able to get home if you die."
"Mind your own business." Fu Zhian suddenly spit out swear words, Chi Yu's eyes narrowed, and he raised his eyebrows: "Li Zhiyi beat you to cerebellar palsy that day?"
Wang Xiao looked at Chi Yu and Fu Zhian arguing with each other, thinking about it. The leg that went up to persuade the fight could not get out. Looking at Chi Yu's increasingly gloomy face, he was afraid that Chi Yu's fist would suddenly fall on his face and hurt his delicate face.
"What's wrong?" The girl's bright face appeared in front of her again, and Fu Zhian raised her eyes to look at Chi Yu and the girl beside her with a displeased expression, and suddenly felt that the two were inexplicably matched.
Thinking of the inexplicably growing thoughts in his heart, Fu Zhian felt that he was dirty and bad for the first time.
"It's nothing." Fu Zhian smiled, his eyes fell on the girl, and he continued, "You and Chi Yu talk slowly."
The girl tilted her head for a while, and suddenly her eyes widened: "You are the octopus?"
Fu Zhian froze in place, and out of the corner of his eye caught sight of Chi Yu's blushing ears, before he could speak, Chi Yu grabbed the girl's arm and pulled her behind him.
"Can you shut up?"
"He's the octopus, right?" The girl seemed to have discovered something extraordinary. She bend her neck and glanced at Fu Zhian's handsome face, and nodded again firmly.
Wang Xiao suddenly felt that his brain was not enough, and regardless of whether he would be beaten or not, he asked, "What octopus?"
"He's the one in the photo, right?" The girl shook off Chi Yu's hand, ran a few steps towards Fu Zhian, looked carefully and turned her head, completely ignoring Chi Yu's gloomy face, and said loudly: "It must be him!"
The original team of two became a team of four. In order to avoid the onlookers at the school gate, Chi Yu could only grab the sluggish Fu Zhian and Wang Xiao, who was watching the show, to escape from the gate, and he didn't slow down until he crossed a crossroads.
Behind him is the twittering voice of a girl, accompanied by Wang Xiao from time to time.
"There's always a photo inside his wallet. It's a photo of him and others when he was a child."
"There are two children in it, one is Chi Yu and the other is octopus."
Wang Xiao nodded, and he continued to ask: "Then what's with the octopus?"
"Just another child, my brother wrote it on the back of the photo."
"Oh." Wang Xiao suddenly felt that something was wrong, "What is it? Is Chi Yu your brother?"
Chi Yu suddenly stopped in his steps, he turned his head and glanced at Wang Xiao, and said to the girl: "You talk too much, Chi Yin."
