Chapter 21: Calamity and Fortune

  "Old buddy..."

  "Ah! What's up?" Cheng A withdrew his gaze from outside the window and looked at his elder cousin who seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

  "This has nothing to do with you, I'll take full responsibility." Lao Biao's face was filled with a heroic and tragic expression.

  "...it's come to this, do you think I can escape the responsibility of being punished? Looking at his solemn face, Cheng A really wanted to punch him, but looking at his fist wrapped like a rice dumpling, he could only helplessly give up..."

  "This matter originated from me, and I have already made it clear to Teacher He."

  "What's next?"

  "Then he told me to come and take care of you first!"

  "Haha... You two stop discussing who's responsible here, neither of you can escape this time!" The voice of Old Gao echoed from the doorway.

  They looked at him, waiting for his next move...

  "This afternoon, I heard that Old Xue (the unified title for the school staff to address the teaching director) smashed a teacup in the office and scolded the head teachers of your several classes loudly. I heard that this matter has even startled Principal Wang who is still on an inspection tour outside the school!" Dr. Gao continued talking

  "Hey, kid, not bad! I heard about what happened at the cafeteria this afternoon. You single-handedly took down three high school sophomores? Tsk tsk, can't believe it, really can't believe it. Look at your skinny arms and legs, who would have thought you're such a good fighter?" Dr. Gao sat upright in front of Cheng A, marveling at him with a series of "tsks".

  "Uh, Doctor Gao, I'm fine, right?" Cheng A asked cautiously, afraid of disturbing him.

  "It's nothing, in two or three days I'll be able to knock down three or four again."

  "Really?" he asked anxiously

  "Must I really tell you what's wrong with you for you to feel at ease?!"

  "No, no! I'm not afraid of being late for class!"

  "It's lucky you hurt your left hand, if it were your right hand, you wouldn't be able to write or eat for the next two or three days!"

  "It seems like I really can't eat anymore..." He looked painful.

  "Are you eating with your left hand?" Old Gao rolled his eyes.

  "It's always been..."

  "It's okay, I'll feed you for these two or three days." Lao Biao took the initiative to undertake his food and lodging for the next two days.

  "Never mind, just help me buy a spoon, I'll make do with my right hand for now!" He didn't dare let his elder cousin feed him, who knows if he would end up feeding himself into his nose.

  "I've been in this school for 5 years, and it's rare to have such a group fight in public areas. Of course, I don't know about the ones that happen behind closed doors. But seeing you get hurt like this is my first time, and Old Xu rarely loses his temper in front of teachers. You guys need to be mentally prepared!" Old Gao said with concern.

  "No big deal! Since it's because of me, I'll take full responsibility!" Lao Biao said with a resolute expression that he wouldn't implicate his brothers.

  Cheng A woke up again, and Lao Biao stayed for a while before being urged to go to class. He then chatted with Lao Gao about medical knowledge for half a day, but in fact, he was not interested in medicine at all. Instead, he wanted to know if the injury he suffered would have any sequelae.

  Finally, Lao Gao found his purpose and directly threw out a sentence "Damn it, so it was for this, wasting half a catty of my saliva!", then patted his butt, and ran to hook up with the new and supposedly very beautiful girl at the supermarket next door.

  Leave an idle egg ache him..."Sister, you'd better leave me a newspaper when you go, or I'll be stuck here counting the stars on the ceiling... cursing you for being infatuated with that girl"

  Man caught...

  Counted for half a day and my eyes are tired... starting to feel drowsy again...

  He didn't know how long he had slept, but he was woken up by the voices outside.

  "Dr. Gao, has Cheng A woken up?" The voice of the excellent student

  "What is she doing here?" He tried to look outside, but his back hurt and he couldn't use his hands, all in vain.

  "Uh... what's your name, classmate?"

  "Sister, when someone asks if I'm awake, just answer directly, do you need to register for visiting a patient?! Hearing Old Gao's overly friendly greeting, Cheng A muttered to herself, looks like Old Gao is up to something again."

  "Do we need to register here too?" asked the excellent student innocently.

  "Uh... I just wanted to ask on behalf of A." Old Gao continued shamelessly.

  "You're shameless and want to drag me down with you, it's no wonder you've lived for over 20 years and still a virgin!" A said to Lao Gao with extreme contempt.

  "No need, I'm her classmate." The excellent student bluntly refused.

  "What a pity, I was just amazed by the beauty of the girl and wanted to make friends, but didn't expect the flowing water to have intentions, and the fallen flowers to be heartless... Ah, ah, classmate don't rush in... Cheng A isn't wearing pants..."

  He originally heard that the excellent girl was coming in, he was about to make an effort to climb up, but after hearing Lao Gao's last sentence, damn it, his original enthusiasm was completely knocked down by Lao Gao's words... Your sister didn't wear pants either...

  Seeing the silhouette walking in at the door, he wanted to cry but had no tears...

  "What's wrong with you? Where does it hurt?" Seeing his mournful expression, the excellent student's face turned anxious.

  "It's nothing!" He didn't dare say that he was hurt by Old Gao's words, and he certainly wouldn't lift up the quilt to prove that he was wearing pants... even if it was just a pair of briefs.

  "Are you hungry? I brought you some tangyuan." The excellent student waved her hand with the thermos lunch box.

  "Huh? ...where did this come from? The cafeteria doesn't sell this." He said in puzzlement.

  "I bought it outside after class." The excellent student said while opening the lid.

  "Uh..." inexplicably moved in her heart...

  "Don't you like eating?" The excellent student looked at him with a puzzled expression, not speaking.

  "Uh... won't! Just a little embarrassed!"

  "Hum ~ You're still shy, dare to fight in front of so many people in the cafeteria and still be shy?"

  "...whichever pot is not opened, lift whichever one"

  "Here!" The excellent student girl scooped the tangyuan into a thermos box and handed it over to him.

  "Uh..." He was just about to reach out and take it, but seeing the bundle-like hands, he withdrew again...

  "Hmph...let you show off!" The excellent student said, sitting down on the edge of the bed.

  A unique body scent that only a woman has, involuntarily speeding up his heartbeat, somewhat like the taste of green apples, sour and astringent, yet slightly sweet.

  Although classmates for so long, this is still the first time to be so close, and it's in a room with only one bed. The inexplicable emotions in their hearts began to spread ambiguously...
