Chapter 126: Save the Brain dead lover (5)
Honestly speaking, the onlookers present couldn’t describe their current emotions. If Yi Xiao’s facial expression were a bit more gentle, then at this moment, the aura emanating from Yi Xiao and Ren Zhu would surely exude the essence of love-struck puppies surrounded by pink bubbles. They should have exhibited the feelings of single dogs in anger to represent their emotions.
However, if Yi Xiao didn’t hand Ren Zhu a pair of chopsticks but a knife or some other weapon instead, then one could think that they had completely broken off their relationship, preparing for a duel, or Yi Xiao was about to give Ren Zhu a beating. Then people could cheer or take delight in their misfortune.
But now, what on earth was the meaning behind menacingly stuffing chopsticks into someone’s hand?! Instead of saying “You’re asking for death” or “You’re asking for a beating,” he uttered, “Eat!”
Eat what?! Are we talking about food here? It’s simply astonishing!
Watching the entire scene, Zack couldn’t help but cover his forehead in frustration. Even though their Big Boss Yi Xiao might be good-looking and strong, this approach to pursuing someone is the rhythm of a forever single dog! Looking at the people observing, those who didn’t know might think he’s forcing him to eat as a punishment!
Thankfully, Ren Zhu’s subsequent actions clarified that it was unlikely to be coercion or a duel. He started eating the dishes he wanted without any psychological burden, and similarly, Chuuni Yi Xiao sat beside him, eating while observing the little Bamboo.
“Tsk, this dish is too spicy. It’s not good for your current condition. You shouldn’t eat too much of it.” Yi Xiao picked a piece of chopped pepper fish from Ren Zhu’s bowl.
“Why eat something so bitter? You’re too thin now. You should eat more ribs! The ribs from a bone beast are the most nourishing, and they’re expensive.” Yi Xiao took another piece of bitter vegetable and then served Ren Zhu a piece of braised bone beast ribs.
Ren Zhu silently finished the braised ribs, thinking that this action could erase one mark from his notebook.
However, his naively chuuni adolescent persistence led to an outcome. After half an hour of eating, Chuuni Yi Xiao daringly took dishes from his bowl numerous times. Even though he compensated by offering Ren Zhu new dishes to make up for it, come on, can’t they eat in peace?!
Before Ren Zhu could get annoyed, the onlookers couldn’t contain their annoyance any longer.
“I’m done! I came here because I’m sick and watched for half an hour!”
“…I’m going to practice with mechs.”
“Wait for me, I’m going to practice psychic powers and abilities.”
Zack quietly ate his tasteless food on the side, smirking internally. It serves you right, you bunch of nosy spectators, to get fed dog food. As if we don’t know you’re up to no good!
In the end, the meal thoroughly displeased Yi Xiao’s rivals. Among them, the least pleased were Qiaozhi Suoya and his companions who had just entered the cafeteria. Qiaozhi Suoya almost immediately noticed Yi Xiao’s satisfied expression after finishing his meal.
Yi Xiao’s face, due to his psychic outburst, wouldn’t express strong emotions. However, his current expression seemed somewhat tender. Even he himself was unaware of this tenderness, which made Qiaozhi Suoya quite uncomfortable.
“Qiaozhi, did you see that skinny kid sitting next to that guy Yi Xiao? This time, he reportedly accidentally ended Yi Xiao’s psychic outbreak, not knowing how. Otherwise, Yi Xiao’s psychic outburst wouldn’t have lasted such a short time, and it might have had a significant impact on his psychic power. Yi Xiao was lucky this time, so now he probably wants to quickly tie down that skinny kid, right?” Peter, Qiaozhi Souya’s subordinate, informed him of the results he had learned.
Qiaozhi Souya furrowed his brows. “Have you investigated that boy? How’s his psychic power? Is he a healing type? What’s his relationship with Yi Xiao? Why did he voluntarily go to Yi Xiao’s rescue?”
Song Ze, who was nearby, immediately understood Qiaozhi’s concerns and laughed. “You don’t need to worry so much. Before today, that kid named Ren Zhu barely had any interaction with Yi Xiao. The only time was last night when he was thrown against the wall by Ren Zhu right before going to rest. Their relationship won’t be good. From what I speculate, Ren Zhu probably wanted to vent his anger on Yi Xiao while he couldn’t move. But who could have known that his accidental interference would stop Yi Xiao’s psychic outbreak?”
“Moreover, even if their relationship is relatively good in private, you don’t need to worry. Because that kid named Ren Zhu is a waste in both psychic power and physical strength. Even if he wants to help Yi Xiao, he has the intention but not the capability.”
After hearing Song Ze’s words, Qiaozhi Souya finally nodded in satisfaction. However, looking at Yi Xiao’s expression that he found unpleasant, after a brief pause, he still spoke, “Have a chance to get in touch with that Ren Zhu. It seems that someone like him living in this academy isn’t doing too well. Under the right circumstances, see if we can recruit him as our informant. If he can betray Yi Xiao at a critical moment, Yi Xiao’s expression will surely be quite amusing.”
Both Song Ze and Peter thought this idea was brilliant. Peter chuckled, “Rest assured, Qiaozhi! Leave this matter to Song Ze and me. I can find many people to act as villains, then let Song Ze play the role of the good guy. If we team up, Ren Zhu will undoubtedly join us without hesitation!”
Qiaozhi Souya laughed, “Don’t go too far, just handle it as you see fit.”
By this time, Ren Zhu and Yi Xiao had finished their meal. When they placed their trays in the cart, they also saw the three people standing by the door. Yi Xiao’s expression turned cold in an instant. Ren Zhu stood beside him and his eyes flickered slightly. “Are those three your opponents?”
Yi Xiao sneered, “With their level, they won’t ever be my opponents in this lifetime.”
This attitude that could only be described as “wanting to challenge heaven and earth” seemed to overlap with a certain period. “Yeah, nobody can be your opponent. What are your plans next? I’m going to take a rest. After afternoon classes, I still need to do tasks in the library.”
Yi Xiao glanced at Ren Zhu’s small frame, feeling like he could crush him with just one leg. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he clicked his tongue. Weaker individuals have their own ways of survival; he would just ignore him. Anyway, they won’t have any interactions in the future.
“I’m going to sleep.”
With that, Yi Xiao left.
As Ren Zhu watched Yi Xiao decisively walk away, he quietly took out his little notebook from his pocket and added a stroke to it, leaving only two more strokes to complete it.
Ren Zhu continued on his way, and coincidentally met the Bu Lu trio. The expressions on their faces were as if they had constipation. Bu Lu wanted to say something harsh, but when he saw Ren Zhu’s eyes calmly fixed on them, he inexplicably felt as if he were being stared at by Zhang Lijun, the class teacher. He hesitated for a moment, then left angrily.
Teacher Ren watched their departing figures and shook his head, a look of pity on his face. “Fools, what’s the use of just leaving angrily? You unreliable folks will still be watched by the god of misfortune.”
Before his words could fully fall, an enraged bellow came from the other side, “Who! Which damn bird dares to poop on me?! I just finished washing my hair!!”
Teacher Ren sighed, wondering when these lost lambs would learn to return?
After school in the afternoon, Ren Zhu arrived at the library on time. Teacher Soya was already there, his eyes twinkling with a smile. Seeing Ren Zhu, his mood became even better. “It seems you had a good meal at lunch today?”
Ren Zhu looked at him suspiciously, wondering if Teacher Soya had informants in the cafeteria. Did he know he had been treated to a big meal?
“Your complexion looks much healthier than this morning. And it seems your mood is also quite good,” Teacher Soya said with a chuckle.
Ren Zhu let down his guard and smiled slightly. “I made a bet with someone and won. Then I helped someone and got treated to a big meal.”
.
Teacher Soya laughed heartily, “Well, today seems to be a good day.”
“Yeah, I can get more work done now.”
So, the old man and the young man quietly cooperated to tidy up the books. Although Teacher Ren appeared quite youthful, his heart seemed quite old? Well, he had always loved reading throughout his life, so he had developed his own specific techniques for organizing books. Obviously, these techniques pleased Teacher Soya. Before it was even half-past six, Ren Zhu and Teacher Soya had already sorted all the books.
“All sorted.”
“Hehe, I didn’t expect you to be so good at organizing books. It seems if there are tasks like this in the future, I can just assign them to you directly,” Teacher Soya naturally knew that this was his way of taking care of Ren Zhu. It was a simple and not particularly tiring task. Even if Ren Zhu might not need such urgent tasks in the future, he still enjoyed quietly organizing books with the old man. “I have time anytime! Just send them directly to me. Thank you.”
Soya’s mood was good, “Well, at least there won’t be any tasks for the next five days. Here are the remaining credits for today. Keep them well and eat more.”
Ren Zhu looked happily at the credits displayed on his student wristwatch. Although they were still few, barely enough to buy a plate of braised bone beast ribs, he believed in the power of accumulation. He planned to retest his psychic power tomorrow, with a ready-made reason: after experiencing Yi Xiao’s psychic outburst, he had a headache and needed a reexamination.
In the history of the Alliance, there were instances where people’s psychic abilities surged after sudden stimulation to the brain. Although it carried significant risks, he wouldn’t appear conspicuous if there were precedents. Once his psychic power was restored, he would teach that over-the-top and mentally deficient Yi Xiao a lesson! He would give him a class teacher’s training every day, allowing him to deeply ‘experience’ his “love.”
Suddenly, at 6:20, for some unknown reason, as he stood next to a big tree outside the library, Yi Xiao let out a loud sneeze. Annoyed, he clicked his tongue and looked at the unpredictable weather. However, he found those four guys who had been loitering in front of the library since 6:00 even more annoying. Their appearance screamed troublemakers, and they shouldn’t be around the library. What did they want to do?
Yi Xiao was lost in thought when he saw Little Bamboo walking out of the library. The four individuals reacted very quickly and approached him. It seemed like a confrontation was imminent.
With a good mood, Ren Zhu left the library and saw the four tall, shady-looking senior students while descending the stairs.
In the moment he saw them, Teacher Ren realized these people weren’t here for good intentions. He knew those mischievous brats too well. Those guys who wrote “I’m here to make trouble” on their faces, really… He chuckled.
Ren Zhu agilely walked past the four senior students at an arm’s length. Even though there was a considerable distance, it didn’t stop these four troublemakers from causing a ruckus.
Soon enough, someone grabbed Ren Zhu’s wrist forcefully. The grip seemed to employ some kind of energy, causing pain to shoot directly through his wrist. Ren Zhu furrowed his brows.
“What are you guys doing?”
The blue-haired youth who held Ren Zhu’s wrist sneered, “What do you think we’re doing? How dare you ask so boldly? You crashed into us and you want to run? Do you think we’re pushovers?” 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑛𝘦𝘵
Ren Zhu thought about the arm’s length between them. Looking up, he responded earnestly, “I’m sorry, I genuinely didn’t expect your eyesight to be so bad. And it seems your nerves are also acting up.”
This sarcastic remark instantly infuriated the four with blue hair. “What did you say? Did you even see who you’re talking to?”
Before the blue-haired youth could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt an enormous force gripping his hand. Then, a sharp pain shot through his wrist. He shouted in agony twice, unable to bear the pain, and released Ren Zhu’s hand. Before he could turn his head, he was thrown straight out.
Thud…
He crashed into a tree trunk outside the library.
The remaining three stared dumbfounded at their leader who was now nursing his hand near the tree roots, quiet as a chicken. Their eyes darted around nervously, and they dared not look up to Yi Xiao, who was already radiating coldness next to them.
“Should you leave on your own, or should I make you leave?”
The three instantly straightened up, “We’ll leave on our own!”
Then the three gave Ren Zhu a disdainful look, subtly indicating the words they had originally planned to yell out, such as ‘Just you wait and see’ or ‘We’ll be back’, before slinking away.
Ren Zhu looked up at Yi Xiao and sensed the fluctuations of psychic power around him. He knew this guy was exhibiting signs of going crazy again. He quickly raised his wrist before Yi Xiao’s face, “It’s swollen.”
Yi Xiao’s eyebrows practically shot up to the sky, “I’m going to beat them up in class tomorrow.”
Although he sounded fierce, the way he held Ren Zhu’s wrist was as gentle as if he were holding a precious treasure.
Ren Zhu burst into laughter again. He felt like he should remove another stroke.
“Well, you’re also stupid. You just stood there and let them grab you. Don’t you have legs to run? It’s not like you didn’t eat lunch! You’re still brainless, tsk, go to the medical room quickly, or do you plan to have me feed you during the meal? I really don’t have that kind of spare time!”
Ren Zhu: “…” Very well. No cutting, let me add another stroke.
