I'm Not Going to Be Bullied By a Girl Chapter 5 – Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun

Editor: @potatoes|i edit for fun

I did not see Xiao Qin at all for the next half a month.

Did you give up? Ren XiaoQin, it seems I overestimated your determination to scheme against me!

I fell asleep in teacher Yu’s cla.s.s while snoring loudly after feeling relaxed.

Dad got drunk last night and I had to help him deal with the shop orders. It was a bit humiliating, but after all, it is a source of income.

That’s why I slept very late last night. I had to package a lot of H products before the courier arrives to pick them up tomorrow morning. I hope my Dad is sober by that time.

The reason I chose to sleep in teacher Yu’s cla.s.s was because, to be frank, he’s timid and cowardly.

He teaches English and he’s thin like bamboo. Every day, his face is always filled with anxiety, he speaks in a low voice, and he does not look like the teacher in charge of our cla.s.s. Ever since he was beaten up by a ruffian student during cla.s.s, his actions became even more cowardly.

Speaking of which, I should mention my position in the 2-3 cla.s.s.

I have always firmly maintained my position in school since after I was bullied by the Little Tyrant as a kid.

There are all kinds of roles in a cla.s.s. For instance, the one who’s best at studying, the one who’s most loved by teachers, the one who’s the most mischievous, or the one who’s most likely to be bullied…

Whenever I go to a new cla.s.s, I would calmly a.n.a.lyze my cla.s.smates. Then, I would gradually a.s.sign them different roles based on their strengths. I would only feel at ease until I was positive that I did not belong in the group of the one’s being bullied.

In the course of time, my role became the lone wolf, a fierce role that no one wants to provoke.

I never mentioned it previously, but my face is actually awfully fierce.

Especially the expression of my eyes.

My long, slender eyes, and my small pupils. Every time I smile, I look terrifying, like a murderer.

According to my dad, I was never this frightening when I was a child. Maybe I slowly evolved into this ferocious appearance as a defensive measure after being bullied so long by the Little Tyrant.

Once when I was walking down a hallway in the main building, I laughed out loud because I remembered a joke my dad told me. As a result, a younger female student who was walking towards me was scared to the point that she started to cry on the spot.

In short, I’m the type that would be identified as a bad person from a crowd.

I thought I was I was pretty cute when I saw pictures of me from my childhood, but I turned out like this all because of the Little Tyrant.

Now, I’m the tallest in the cla.s.s and the best at fighting. I sat at the last row, at the back of the cla.s.sroom , on the left side. There was no one next to me, maybe it’s because they were worried that if they put someone next to me , they would be bullied and it would affect their studies.

Teacher Yu probably never woke me up because he was afraid of getting beat up.

In reality, I have never hit a teacher before (because my dad used to be a teacher). Also, other than beating a bunch of hooligans who steal money into submission, I have never actually bullied anyone.

But in the eyes of my cla.s.smates, I have probably already killed tens of people already. In the future, I will definitely be first sent to a juvenile detention center, then prison, then dragged onto the execution ground where I eat lead, something along those lines, right?

You guys are underestimating the police! Can I still be sitting in cla.s.s if I have already killed tens of people?

Whatever, I don’t care anymore! Let me take a nap first!

I had a nightmare.

I never thought I would have a dream while sleeping on my desk.

I dreamt that Xiao Qin entered the 2-3 cla.s.s as a transfer student, and she was also a.s.signed to the seat next to me. Teacher Yu also said that since Xiao Qin was home-schooled, she was not used to school life. He hopes that everyone can help her out, so she can integrate into our cla.s.s.

All the people and things from my dream were fuzzy, but the voices were oddly clear as if it was coming from right by my ear.

It was also mono.

Was it mono because I was sleeping while covering my right ear, so only a single channel was left? Why is this dream so realistic in odd places?

Xiao Qin transferred to our school, and she’s sitting next to me? Ridiculous! How could such a manga-like scene happen in reality? I can’t believe I had this dream while sleeping. I had enough of my own paranoia.

This desk is really hard! I pulled out my numb arm and decided to change a sleeping posture. This time, I turned my face towards the right.

The right side originally had an empty desk. But, I’m not sure when a smiling girl appeared.

As long as it’s not Feng Jie, a girl’s smile should be beautiful.

Although this girl could be considered a beauty, her facial expression seems like she wants to laugh but doesn’t dare to laugh, wants to look at you but is afraid of being discovered, wants to talk to you but doesn’t know how to initiate… Basically, extremely odd and weird.

Especially her eyes. It revealed her boundless desired for me as if I was a piece of meat, but she can’t eat any.

I broke into a cold sweat and I stood up in a sudden.

f.u.c.k, do you want to scare me to death with that tiger-like smile?

And, isn’t this girl Ren XiaoQin?

Her hair was longer than the time we last met, and she was still wearing a beige skirt-suit. Why are you dressing so cute, what’s your goal?

So, you still won’t let me go! You even followed me to school to finish me off! You even wore a PVP outfit that gives +10 to charm!

Transfer students need to wear a uniform too! I’m going to buy you a set of that ugly blue and white sports uniform tomorrow!

“Ye, Ye Lin, should you be sleeping in cla.s.s?”

She finally choked out a sentence after waiting a long time.

“Don’t speak in cla.s.s! Pay attention to the lesson!”

Teacher Yu would definitely not believe I was helping him maintain order in cla.s.s.

“But, I haven’t seen Ye Lin in a while…”

She was acting cute while playing with her cartoon pen.

“Who allowed you to call me this intimately? Add ‘cla.s.smate’ after my name!”

“Why? Aren’t we childhood friends?”

What childhood friends! When were we childhood friends? I don’t want a violent childhood friend who can’t even distinguish their own s.e.x!

“I don’t care, just don’t directly call me by my name!” (TN: Basically same thing as j.a.panese where he wants her to add -san or in this case cla.s.smate)

I ordered her. You can’t be soft-hearted against an opponent like Ren XiaoQin.

If I become soft-hearted, I would become as miserable as my father.

“All right then, Ye Lin cla.s.smate…”

She said unwillingly.

Teacher Yu was spiritlessly reading a pa.s.sage from the lectern. There were a few people in our cla.s.s who seemed to have noticed me talking to the transfer student. But we were not speaking loudly, so they should not have clearly heard anything.

Well, they probably think I am bullying the transfer student.

This is the only time I will fulfill their expectations.

I will ruthlessly bully my neighbor, Ren XiaoQin.

The plan is to make her fall before she attacks my castle.

Once I imagined Ren Xiaoqin finally showing her true colors and shouting at me: “I hate you!”, or even punching me, I was excited to the point where I began to shake.

It’s probably the same feeling as when Zhu GeLian set a trap for Cao Cao, or when the Joker sets a trap for batman.

“Ye, Ye Lin cla.s.smate, why is your face also red?”

No! I’m thinking of how to bully you! Since I have never bullied anyone before, I don’t have any experience! Don’t disrupt my train of thought!

“Ye Lin cla.s.smate, you’re shaking!”

I stared at her with a fierce expression. If it was another girl, it would have been enough to make them cry.

Xiao Qin, on the other hand, blushed and turned her face away.

“Ye Lin cla.s.smate, umm… Do I look good in a skirt?”

Don’t misunderstand! I clearly gave an expression that said ‘I’ll kill you if you keep talking’! What kind of mind do you need for you to misunderstand that I’m complimenting your looks?

“Actually, this is my first time wearing a skirt in public… After seeing Ye Lin cla.s.smate shake, I’m also getting nervous… By the way, there’s no tear in my skirt, right? I won’t be exposed, right?”

She placed her hands on her knees and pressed down the hems of her skirt like she was very nervous.

“Don’t use that strange tone of voice! You were a girl in the first place, what is there to expose?”

Hearing me say that, she had a happy expression and I had no idea what she was thinking.

I need to think of a few ways to bully her while she is quiet, but why can’t I think of anything right now! Why do I want to listen to teacher Yu’s lesson for the first time!

After about five minutes, I felt Xiao Qin poking my elbow with a ruler. I was going to ignore her, but she started poking me harder until I turned around in a bad mood. I realized she tied a square piece of paper at the end of the ruler with a rubber band.

So, you weren’t taking notes for the lesson! I thought you said you have never been to school before. Then, how do you know these high-level note pa.s.sing skills?

I angrily opened the note. There was a message written on it with beautiful handwriting:

I grew my hair longer and wore a skirt. Do I look more like a girl now?

So, can you consider my request again?

P.S. I was too embarra.s.sed to say it out loud, so I wrote it in a note. How about you reply in a note?

She also drew a large heart with a red pen on it! I’m going to go blind!
