I'm Not Going to Be Bullied By a Girl Chapter 905: Evening Study Session

Chapter 905: Evening Study Session

“Hey, hey, Ye Lin cla.s.smate, how did I do during the hostage-taking incident? Should I be awarded a star?”

On Sunday night, Xiao Qin, who found an excuse to come to my house to deliver an umbrella, blinked as she asked me that question.

The umbrella was left behind at Auntie Ren’s house when my dad and I were invited to her house on Friday. However, tomorrow was Monday, so there was no need for Xiao Qin to personally bring it over tonight.

My dad wasn’t at home. He went to Uncle Fireball’s house with Director Cao to hold a three-person shareholder meeting. Since no one was watching, I patted Xiao Qin’s head to praise her.

“Well done, everyone is safe thanks to you.”

Xiao Qin closed her eyes like a cat to enjoy my pats, then she made a comfortable expression.

To be honest, it’s not like everyone was safe. Teacher Yu was stabbed only three centimeters away from his a.n.u.s, but it was a blessing in disguise. He suddenly became a model teacher in Dong Shan City for rescuing his students and he received orders to give lectures all over the place.

During the hostage incident, although Xiao Qin had selfish motives of only wanting to protect me, at least she did not sell out her own teammates. Overall, she still took everyone’s safety into consideration. It looks like my sister discipline plan was the correct choice.

I didn’t really think about it too carefully and directly increased Xiao Qin’s total number of stars to 50. Although it was still far from 10,000 stars, it was enough to make Xiao Qin happy for several days.

“Ye Lin cla.s.smate.” Xiao Qin seemed to have suddenly thought of something, “If this kind of incident happens again, and the people I save aren’t our cla.s.smates, but complete strangers, will you also give me stars?”

“The relationship we have with the people you save doesn’t matter. I’ll give you stars as long as they are good people and you perform a good deed.” I encouraged.

“That would be much faster than helping Gong CaiCai pick up textbooks to earn stars…” Xiao Qin muttered to herself. In the next few days, I found that she often appeared near ATM machines. She would stare at the back of the person who was withdrawing money and it made them very uncomfortable.

Are you waiting for something to happen? Are you going to help them if a criminal tries to mug them? I think 80% of the people who withdrew money thought that you were going to mug them! If you really ran into a mugger, it would be very dangerous for you to do this!

I stopped Xiao Qin from doing that again. I told her that even if she stopped a mugger, I wouldn’t see it, so she restrained herself.

Monday, September 16th, was the day we began the evening self-study sessions for the third year students. According to the ‘Evening Self-Study Agreement’ that everyone ‘voluntarily’ signed in advance, from now on, we will start evening self-study at 6:15 pm until 8 p.m. We were allowed to use 5 to 6 pm to either have dinner or do homework.

Although everyone already knew about it in advance, it was inevitable for mourning when the day actually arrived. Xiong YaoYue wailed:

“Today is China’s Brain Health Day! I’m not healthy at all because of the evening study sessions!”

Due to the change in the schedule, the cla.s.s leader couldn’t cook dinner for her brother every day. It’s because even if you were a Tour de France winner, you wouldn’t have the time to buy groceries, cook, then return to school within the hour after school ends and evening self-study starts.

So Shu Zhe could only eat the leftovers that had been made the night before and kept in the refrigerator. All he had to do was heat them up in the microwave. He complained quite a bit about it and felt that it would be better for his sister to give him some money and let him order takeout instead.

How could you be so ungrateful! Did you know that even reheated beef and potato stew made the night before will still taste better than 90% of takeout!

During the evening study session, the Chinese teacher asked us to write a test. One of the questions was about the idiom ‘Ye Gong loves dragons’. Xiao Qin, who was obviously doing the same question as me, suddenly sighed.

“It’s so annoying, even people from ancient times knew that Ye Lin cla.s.smate’s nostrils would grow bigger when he sees the cla.s.s leader…”

What does that have to do with people from ancient times? Also, did you already decided that my nostrils grow bigger every time I see a pretty girl?

Xiao Qin tilted her head and used a pen to brush her short hair.

“Ye Gong likes dragons, basically means, there’s a protagonist with the last name Ye who likes the cla.s.s leader, who is a dragon… what an annoying idiom!”

It’s not a protagonist with the last name Ye, but an older person with the last name Ye!

However, Xiao Qin’s frown suddenly relaxed, because she thought of the result of Ye Gong loves dragons.

“Hehe, Ye Lin cla.s.smate thought about dragons every day in ancient times. Once he saw the true face of dragons, he was so scared that he collapsed on the ground and his nostrils returned to normal size! It seems that the people from ancient times weren’t that annoying! I’ll answer this question seriously since the idiom is actually quite good!”

No, it’s too late. You’ve already spent 7 or 8 minutes on a simple multiple-choice question. At this rate, you won’t be able to finish the Chinese questions before cla.s.s ends.

To my surprise, Xiao Qin still worked very hard to finish the test. However, when Old Man Zhang was correcting the question ‘What is the central idea expressed by Ye Gong loves dragons?’, he found Xiao Qin’s answer very puzzling:

“Although Ye Gong said he likes dragons, he’s actually not really in love with dragons. In his heart, he likes snakes (his childhood friend, snake).”

How can a human and a snake be childhood friends? Old Man Zhang drew a big cross and commented,

“So is Ye the love rival of Xu Xian?”

The first day of self-study in the evening ended at 8. Except for some particularly hard-working top students and those with high self-esteem like the cla.s.s leader, most of the students were all very sickly.

After I got home, I stayed until nearly 10 and listened to my dad talk about the future business plan of the ‘Happy Valley Three Brothers’. I thought it was boring, so I put on a jacket and went for a walk by the lake.

I haven’t been there much since they began construction around Dong Shan Lake. Now the project was coming to an end and the pavilions have taken shape, and there was no more dust everywhere.

The night was quiet and beautiful, and I was momentarily lost in thought while facing the calm lake that reflected the moonlight. Unknowingly, a figure appeared beside me on the empty sh.o.r.e of the lake.

Out of the corner of my eye, I discovered that it was Kamakura, the bodyguard a.s.signed to me by Ai ShuQiao. He was still wearing an agent costume, with half of his face covered. After nightfall, he looked even more like a ninja.

He did not talk to me, but took out a metal object from his tactical belt and threw it as hard as he could towards the center of the lake.

I suddenly felt a chill, because I recognized that metal object —— I saw it at the Doomsday Bunker, it was the chin implant Dr. Yu put inside Tie Xian! That’s part of Tie Xian’s chin!

“What… did you do to him?” I asked as calmly as I could.

“That’s is not something you need to worry about.” Kamakura said in a hoa.r.s.e voice, looking at the lake that had returned to calmness after a slight bout of turbulence, “Anyway, Tie Xian escaped from the bunker and wanted to harm you. As your bodyguard, I helped you take care of him.”

I thought Kamakura’s words were very suspicious.

“The Doomsday Bunker is heavily guarded. If Tie Xian was your prisoner, there’s no chance he could escape, right?”

“He’s not a prisoner.” Kamakura replied calmly, “Ai ShuQiao kept him to use him as a chess piece, but it wasn’t the time to use him yet. He was out of control and tried to take revenge on you in advance, so I had to make him disappear.”

I carefully figured out what Kamakura meant. Since Tie Xian couldn’t take revenge on me ‘in advance’, then as long as he was patient, he could wait for the opportunity to get his revenge on me. Ai ShuQiao wanted to protect my safety, so why did she keep someone who wanted to kill me?

“Probably because she wanted you to kill him in public, right?” Kamakura sneered, “If Tie Xian attacks you or the people around you, you will definitely fight back, right? And Tie Xian had actually been injected with steroid stimulants which enhanced his physical fitness, but there was a high chance of sudden death for him once you fought back. Then you will truly become a murderer in everyone’s eyes, which will help Ai ShuQiao transform you… it’s just my guess, maybe there was a more sophisticated plan, but this chess piece can no longer be used, so any plans is meaningless.”

“Where did you kill Tie Xian?” I cast a look at Kamakura full of suspicion, “You were ordered to be my bodyguard. If Tie Xian escaped from the doomsday bunker, then there should be security personnel to deal with him. Why was it you who killed him? Did Tie Xian come near me?”

“Hmph, young people have so many questions.” Kamakura patted the dust on his hands, as if to wipe away the non-existent blood in his hands.

At that moment I was surprised to discover that Kamakura didn’t have any fingerprints on either of his hands.
