Chapter 945 - 549: It’s Nothing
CHAPTER 945: CHAPTER 549: IT’S NOTHING
Night.
Jiang Ning and Xue Yuantong left the campus early.
The other students only stood up from their seats when the school bell rang ten minutes later.
Without Dan Kaiquan saying anything, Guo Kunnan predicted: "Brother Quan, the playground!"
What makes a good brother, this is a good brother. Guo Kunnan guessed that Dan Kaiquan’s confession failed, so he accompanied him to the playground to heal the pain.
Actually, he originally wanted to call his good brother out for BBQ, but unfortunately, Dan Kaiquan’s confession not only made him broke but also dragged Guo Kunnan into bankruptcy.
The money Guo Kunnan earned from gaming during summer break was spent on buying clothes for his always-kind sister, gifts for his parents, leaving just a few hundred left, of which he lent Kaiquan five hundred a few days ago for confession expenses.
So now he was broke and couldn’t splurge at the BBQ joint.
Hu Jun saw the situation and shouted: "Count me in!"
They usually acted together, known outside as Class 8 F3; now that Quanzi was heartbroken, Hu Jun ought to accompany him.
F3 assembled and headed for the playground.
Liu Chuandao drifted to the back row, glanced at Dan Kaiquan, the last time in class because of Lan Zichen, he and Dan Kaiquan had a conflict, and if it weren’t for Director Wang stepping in, they might have had a big fight.
Now hearing that Dan Kaiquan’s confession to Lan Zichen failed, he chuckled inwardly, thinking, ’Making such a big scene, and yet it still failed?’
But he didn’t say it out loud, knowing Dan Kaiquan was in an extreme state and might need someone to vent to; currently, his combat power was definitely formidable.
Liu Chuandao just showed a sneering smile but said nothing.
Guo Kunnan noticed and hurriedly blocked Dan Kaiquan’s view to prevent him from seeing.
Liu Chuandao sneered unrestrainedly, laughing at the mediocrity of the world; he laughed and laughed!
Yang Sheng called out: "Is sweeping the floor that much fun?"
Liu Chuandao’s smile vanished.
’Damn bitch, one day I’ll get you!’ He fumed with indignation.
Duan Shigang grabbed a broom: "You handle the north-south sides, I’ll take the middle, let’s finish quickly and go back!"
After Dan Kaiquan and the others left, Liu Chuandao chuckled: "Hahaha, they must have spent quite a lot, right?"
He was initially planning to mock viciously but then suddenly remembered he lost Lan Zichen’s phone and had to pay twelve hundred...
Liu Chuandao’s laugh turned uglier.
...
After the evening self-study ended, since grades one and two had all gone home, under the sparing light of the stadium lamps, there were only a few silhouettes.
The breeze swept across, bringing the loneliness of autumn.
Dan Kaiquan walked on the playground, lifted his head to gaze at the moon, thinking, wasn’t today’s brave act just like the moon in the sky?
So near in front of you, yet so far away.
Guo Kunnan and Hu Jun guarded him left and right, preventing him from losing control, going into madness.
"Brother Quan, love is something you can’t achieve just by trying hard, my condolences," Guo Kunnan consoled.
Hu Jun: "Yeah, if it’s not yours, it never will be, don’t force it."
Listening to the brotherly comfort, Dan Kaiquan couldn’t help but feel dazed, walked for a bit, then slowly said: "I actually shouldn’t have confessed."
Guo Kunnan: "If given another chance, would you confess?"
Dan Kaiquan thought for a moment, "I still would."
Hu Jun: "Heh, really complicated."
Dan Kaiquan: "She made me understand her feelings."
The three walked around the playground in circles, from the west track to the eastern track, near the east gate of the playground.
The night grew late, the playground became quieter, from here they could see the senior grade starting their evening self-study in the teaching building.
Guo Kunnan said: "After the walk, let’s go out and buy some pancakes, my treat."
As he spoke, before Dan and Hu could respond, they saw six figures leaping over the eastern courtyard wall, skillful, agile, clearly in good physical condition.
"Pancakes, huh? Today I’m feeding you bricks!"
The leader, a chubby guy, wore a cruel expression.
The other five slowly surrounded them, enclosing the three.
At this moment, another figure came down from the wall, tall, handsome, with a smile on his face, though his white clothes had some dust from climbing over the wall, it didn’t impact his style.
The tall guy casually walked over to them, looking down with disdain, he said:
"Let me introduce myself, we meet again, I am Wu Yunzhi."
Seeing the person in front of him, Dan Kaiquan recalled the high school freshman who ruined his confession that afternoon.
Seeing a sworn enemy, Dan Kaiquan stared at him: "Looking for trouble?"
Wu Yunzhi suddenly smiled, urbane and cordial:
"Not looking for trouble, just, you have to apologize, right?"
Guo Kunnan took the chance to size up the other six; these people didn’t have the aura of students, Yu Zhou Fourth Middle School being a provincial exemplary high school, most students are focused on their studies.
But not these six, their societal vibe was too strong, one even had tattoos extending up to his neck, looking terrifyingly fierce.
Coming from a rural background like Guo Kunnan, he knew how chaotic middle schools used to be; he had seen many fights, wisely yielded:
"Hey brother, sorry, my pal’s confession earlier got in your way."
Dan Kaiquan: "Brother Nan, don’t say that."
He looked at Wu Yunzhi, recalling how Lan Zichen had kept looking at him; he said, word by word: "Want a fight, huh?"
Since coming to Yu Zhou Fourth Middle School, even at his weakest, Dan Kaiquan had never backed down; and now?
Guo Kunnan didn’t heed his brother’s words, quickly said: "We apologize, apologize!"
In this dark and windy night, if a fight broke out, the three of them definitely couldn’t defeat the seven on the opposing side, it’d definitely be a one-sided beating, not worth it!
