After the last chemistry exam, Yin Gu didn’t even look at the back row, he just picked up his bag and walked out.
The crowd was crowded, and every face passing by was vivid and real, mixed with various expressions such as “I failed the test, I’m screwed”, “F*ck this time”, “Hope the teacher who set the test will have no seasoning for instant noodles tomorrow”, “If there’s any requests, please let me die instead of filling in the wrong answer sheet on the test”…
Yin Gu’s lips curled up. He liked this kind of excitement, and he liked being in the excitement even more. Of course, it would be even better if he was in the excitement.
To some extent, he is very similar to Yu Chengsong. From the first glance at the classroom door before entering the class, one can feel that they are the same kind of people.
The scent of the same kind is too obvious.
He longs to feel the human touch and experience true emotional expression in normal interactions with others, so he was never stingy about getting along with others in a friendly manner.
Yu Chengsong did not do so because he chose to hide this emotion, stay away from the crowd, observe everything around him calmly and thoughtfully, and exclude himself.
Yin Gu had never thought deeply about the reason why Yu Chengsong did this. As long as one is a human being, he or she will have secrets, and if it is a secret, he or she would not want others to know it.
He prefers to be explained actively rather than be suspicious secretly.
Xiyuan City has beautiful scenery and simple folk customs. Yin Gu likes it very much—except for the simple snack carts in front of the school gate.
The smell of smoke oil was so strong that he couldn’t help but quicken his pace every time he walked past it.
To go home, Yin Gu has to cross the road first, then turn left onto the snack street, and then walk through the snack street to the community…
Yin Gu twirled his fingers in his pockets, paused for a while, and turned right into the small supermarket at the school gate.
The supermarket owner is an elderly lady with poor eyesight. Last time he came, she mistook him for Yu Chengsong. After being corrected by her daughter, she looked at him for a long time before slowly saying, “Oh, oh, it’s not Chengsong. This kid is good-looking too. Do you know Chengsong? He looks a lot like you…”
Yin Gu lifted the yellowed old-fashioned beaded curtain at the door. The rustling sound made the grandmother, sitting behind the cashier, look up. She adjusted her reading glasses on the bridge of her nose, looked at him, and smiled, her voice kind and slow: “Ai, it’s the child who looks like Chengsong. You can choose whatever you want to buy by yourself.”
Yin Gu really didn’t know how he and Yu Chengsong looked alike other than their height. If he took off his glasses, perhaps the emotions in their eyes would be a little similar, but as for appearance… maybe Grandma had her own criteria for judgment.
He walked to the cashier counter, showing a gentle smile that a younger generation should have, and said in a soft voice, “Grandma, what kind of candy does Yu Chengsong often come to buy?”
“What kind of candy does he buy ah…” Grandma thought seriously for a while, looked up at him, and said, “Milk candy, sugar balls, candy with sticks, they are all sweet… Ai, this child loves sweet things and always buys sweet milk to drink, it is not as nutritious as pure milk.”
Yin Gu smiled and nodded. He walked around the shelf twice but only took a pack of cigarettes.
When paying, Grandma kept nagging him a few sentences, it’s something like, “The bad thing about you and Chengsong is that you both like to smoke, and he also likes to smoke this brand…”
When Yin Gu left, he did not go out the front door but went straight out the back door and turned into the alley that was “ruined” by Yu Chengsong.
He wanted to try his luck today.
After exiting the supermarket’s back door, turn right to go out, and turn left to the dead end he went to that day. It sounds simple, but the terrain is actually quite complicated, and it is also very convenient for eavesdropping. One can just squat in any corner and shrink inward, and then they won’t be seen.
Maybe it’s true that land and water shape people. Yin Gu, who had mediocre luck in the past 18 years, was lucky enough to smell a few undisguised alpha pheromones on the wind. He walked over there and listened carefully. Several keywords such as “good looking”, “Yu Chengsong”, and “don’t beat him to death”, floated over on the wind.
He’s not mistaken.
According to pheromone analysis, there are four alphas on the opposite side, whose levels are lower than his and Yu Chengsong but not as bad as the three thugs that day. They are the type that are not easy to mess with.
From the sound of it, there are two or three more betas as well.
There are six or seven people—it’s enough.
……
It was getting dark, and the only sound in the alley was the wind, except for the heavy breathing.
Yin Gu bent down to pick up the dusty schoolbag, patted it with a normal expression, glanced at the people lying on the ground, and slowly turned on the video recording on his mobile phone.
After a while, Yin Gu walked out of the alley, his back straight, and he walked calmly. Except for his left hand, which was bleeding, there was nothing abnormal about him.
All seven people in the alley fell down. It is not a good habit to be enemies with top A. Yin Gu taught them a good lesson.
Yu Chengsong was standing at the door of a fried skewer shop behind the school, with Zhou Zheyu, who was squatting until his legs were numb, next to him.
“F*ck, are you sure that the newcomer didn’t scare you? Hiss—” Zhou Zheyu grabbed Yu Chengsong’s thigh and stood up with difficulty. His legs were numb and trembling. “It’s already six o’clock. Gege, my dear Gege, I’m starving, really starving, starving to death…”
“What good would it do for him to scare me?” Yu Chengsong said with a click of his tongue, “Don’t touch my legs.”
“What the hell is wrong with me just touching it? It’s such a waste if you don’t let people touch such straight and slender legs.” Zhou Zheyu rubbed his stomach, his chest sticking to his belly with hunger. “These people are really getting more and more cowardly, they have started to talk nonsense, it’s a waste of time, f*ck.”
Yu Chengsong deeply agrees with this.
The place in front of this fried skewer shop is where they usually arrange fights. Usually they wait here when something happens, and even if nothing happens, they can also wait for something to happen.
But it is exceptionally calm today.
His stomach growled a few more times, and Yu Chengsong put out his cigarette and got into the bike. “Let’s go. We won’t wait any longer.”
“We should have left long ago, what a bunch of idiots.” Zhou Zheyu sat in the back seat.
“Barbecue?” Yu Chengsong stepped on the pedal, and the bike suddenly jumped out.
“I can eat even if you bring me a plate of sh*t right now.” Zhou Zheyu hugged his waist weakly, pressed his face against his back, and rubbed it in a coquettish manner.
“Then get off the bike.” Yu Chengsong laughed twice. “I’ll eat barbecue, you go back to the toilet in the school—”
He couldn’t continue, it was really disgusting. The barbecue restaurant they chose was on the street where he and Yin Gu bought the steamed buns. Not to mention the taste, mainly because it was close and they were starving, so they didn’t care about the taste.
After sitting down, Yu Chengsong threw the menu to Zhou Zheyu and asked him to choose. While he had nothing to do, he unlocked his phone to play.
It was expected that that grandson, Jia Feisong, would find someone to harm him, and it was also expected that he would find someone who was said to be very powerful in society as well.
He would not regret having done that thing, nor would he give up halfway. He was prepared to go back injured today, but when did Jia Feisong learn to back off?
This is not the character of this grandson ah.
“Okay, let’s grill it first.” Zhou Zheyu returned the menu to the waiter and turned to look at him. “Do you want to drink alcohol?”
“Whatever.” Yu Chengsong stared at his phone.
“Take this one bunch and nothing else for now.” Zhou Zheyu said.
There were a lot of people at the barbecue shop at that time. The food was still not done after grilling for a long time. Zhou Zheyu was so hungry that he almost jumped up. He kept cursing Jia Feisong and the barbecue shop, “Damn it, did I order too much? Do you think we can’t finish it or something? I should have burned it with a lighter. F*ck, f*ck, f*ck, I’m starving to death…”
Too much?
Yu Chengsong leaned back in his chair and glanced diagonally upwards. Most of the buildings opposite had lights on, and occasionally he could see people on the balconies.
Changsheng Community, he doesn’t know which building it is, but it should take five minutes to come down to eat some kebabs.
He opened his phone and sent a voice message to Yin Gu.
-This good boy, is barbecue delicious?
The other party replied very quickly, also with a voice message.
-No, I want to eat something better.
Yu Chengsong raised his eyebrows. The sound of car horns and wind was particularly obvious in Yin Gu’s voice. He hadn’t returned home yet. The good kid had a rich nightlife.
“The newcomer?” Zhou Zheyu, using the catching him in bed kind of gaze to look at him, “When did you two become so familiar with each other? It’s only been a few days. Did something happen when I wasn’t aware of it?”
“Not familiar, I owe him a meal.” Yu Chengsong closed WeChat, clicked on his foster child, and frowned, “…F*ck, he hasn’t come home in two days, making dad so worried about his well-being ah.”
“Your frog son?” Zhou Zheyu watched him collect a row of clovers.
“En.” Yu Chengsong said.
Zhou Zheyu didn’t say anything for a long time. When the skewers finally came up, he stared into Yu Chengsong’s eyes and solemnly said, “I don’t think this person is reliable.”
“En?” Yu Chengsong took a bite of meat and felt alive. He swallowed it and asked, “What do you mean?”
“It’s a man’s intuition.” Zhou Zheyu was filled with deep hatred and resentment.
Yu Chengsong sneered and looked at him sympathetically: “My son, your intuition has been useless since the moment you said he was a weak A.”
“What do you mean?” Zhou Zheyu was shocked. “Is there another hidden story?”
“The hidden story was as high as Mount Everest.” Said Yu Chengsong.
Zhou Zheyu was even more shocked. He opened his mouth for a long time before saying, “He can’t be the same as you…”
Yu Chengsong nodded.
Zhou Zheyu rolled his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and shut himself in.
Isn’t Top A a rare species of giant panda? How come one just came here and sat together with another giant panda?
Where can he go to seek justice?
Zhou Zheyu finally recovered after eating more than ten skewers of mutton. He asked sadly, “Changing the subject, what are you going to do about Jia Feisong?”
“No plans.” Yu Chengsong took a sip of beer, which was very cold.
“Actually, I do have a plan.” Zhou Zheyu clinked glasses with him, the beer tasted like white wine. He smacked his lips and said, “If you spread the word that Wu Xiaoyuan is yours, she may be safe.”
“Safe?” Yu Chengsong glanced at him and sneered, “Count on your fingers, how many people who can’t beat me can get their hands on her?”
“……” Zhou Zheyu touched the back of his head and finally gave up and drank a glass of beer. “If you say so, then go ahead and do it with that newcomer. Only he is worthy of you and can join hands with you to overthrow those idiots and create the Empire…”
“Why don’t I do it with you?” Yu Chengsong glanced at him.
“It’s not impossible either.” Zhou Zheyu patted his arm shyly. “Since you don’t mind eating meat or vegetables1Not picky., we two brothers can just make do with it—”
“Ugly bastards shouldn’t date.” Yu Chengsong slapped his hand away in disgust.
“F*ck!” Zhou Zheyu retracted his hand and pointed at himself in disbelief. “I’m ugly?”
Yu Chengsong raised his middle finger and raised his eyebrows: “Otherwise, I’m ugly?”
“Although the position fell on me because you didn’t want it, I am still the most handsome boy in the school after all! People have sharp eyes, and my handsomeness is second only to you!” Zhou Zheyu said as he turned on the front camera to carefully admire his handsome face.
Yu Chengsong curled his lips, clicked on Yin Gu’s WeChat profile picture, threw it on the table, and asked inhumanely, “Who of you is more good-looking?”
“Who ah?” Zhou Zheyu picked up the phone and looked at it carefully with a dissatisfied look on his face. Two seconds later, he said, “F*ck!”
