- Chapter 15 - "Daddy Gu" Worries Himself Sick Over the Kids
The green-haired leader had left, and naturally, his lackeys did not dare to linger. They feared that if they stayed, the two lunatics, Yan Mingyue and Jin Xi, would catch them and deliver another brutal beating.
Once everyone had cleared out, Yan Mingyue let out a long sigh of relief. Ignoring his image, he tossed his wooden stick aside, found a random spot on the ground, and lay down, ready to drift off to sleep.
Seeing him do this, the others followed suit. They imitated his movements and sat down wherever they could. In an instant, a pile of college students was sprawled across the floor.
“Did we really chase them off?”
The young men, their faces covered in grime, looked at each other as the realization finally dawned on them. They burst into loud laughter, their expressions filled with pure satisfaction. At this moment, not one of them thought about the consequences. They only knew that they had triumphed against the odds and driven the villains away.
“You have no idea! The way Chen Heng fled in panic just now was absolutely hilarious! Hahaha!”
“Exactly! So true!”
“In the past, Chen Heng always liked to use his family background to bully us. I never thought the day would come when we could actually fight back!”
Listening to the sound of their voices, Yan Mingyue closed his eyes, feeling drowsy. However, his mind was busy complaining. As expected of the setting in certain old-school “overbearing CEO” novels, even though they clearly could have called the police or reported it to a teacher, it seemed as if not a single person had thought of those solutions.
“Hey, Yan Mingyue.” Amidst the laughter, a somewhat embarrassed voice rang out. A boy dressed in a flamboyant outfit walked up to Yan Mingyue. His expression was awkward, but he still reached out a hand toward Yan Mingyue and said, “I am sorry. Yan Mingyue, we want to apologize to you. Our prejudice against you was too deep before. We are sorry.”
Stunned, Yan Mingyue opened his eyes. He had never expected that getting into a fight would lead to such an unexpected gain. He wiped the blood from his hands onto his clothes until they were clean before reaching out to shake the boy’s hand. “You do not need to apologize. I really did do many things wrong in the past! I also need to apologize to all of you. I am sorry, everyone.”
After saying this, Yan Mingyue gave them a sincere, serious bow. This apology was made on behalf of the original owner of the body, and it also served as his way of thanking the original owner.
I am sorry, everyone. At the same time, thank you, Yan Mingyue.
His expression was earnest and solemn, worlds apart from the calculating person he used to be. It made everyone realize that Yan Mingyue truly was different now.
After bowing, Yan Mingyue straightened up and smiled, extending his hand to the boy in front of him. “Alright, let us get to know each other again! My name is Yan Mingyue!”
“I am Song Cheng!”
“I am Lin Yinxu!”
“My name is”
The rest of the group also chimed in to introduce themselves, their faces glowing with youthful energy.
The last one was Jin Xi. He raised an eyebrow, put away his phone, and extended his own hand to Yan Mingyue. “Hello, Vice President Yan. My name is Jin Xi, and I want to join your Anime Club!”
Yan Mingyue thought to himself that they were, in a sense, brothers who had gone through life and death together. If he were to be petty and refuse now, it would truly hurt a brother’s heart. Thus, he gripped Jin Xi’s hand tightly. “Good brother, welcome to the Anime Club.”
The friendship of youth often arrives in such mysterious and passionate ways. The two, who previously had nothing but complaints about each other, decided right then to leave Gu Yuebai behind and go treat themselves to a meal at the food street.
On the other side, Gu Yuebai looked at the message Jin Xi had sent back and leaned his head against his hand, feeling helpless. Was he really attending a university? Why did it feel so much like
He found a contact at the very bottom of his WeChat list, opened their chat box, and briefly informed the person about the fight between Yan Mingyue and Jin Xi.
X: Understood. I will go settle it.
X: You seem to be paying quite a lot of attention to that person. Did something happen?
Gu Yuebai did not want to tell anyone besides Jin Xi about Yan Mingyue’s confession to him, so he replied: “No, I just find him a bit different.”
X, of course, did not push further. He simply sent a “bye-bye” emoji and quickly went offline.
Gu Yuebai closed his eyes, a slight headache forming, and covered them with his hand.
This person, X, was very clever. A single glance was enough for him to see through a person’s heart.
At the other end of the phone, in a dim room lit only by the faint glow of a computer screen, the sound of something rolling could be heard faintly in the darkness. Then, a pair of hands, pale from a chronic lack of sunlight, closed the laptop. The final sliver of light was extinguished, returning the room once again to a deathly silence.
