  “The…… the one named Ye, I heard that you were supporting that kid, Shu Zhe?

  Li ErLeng’s left eye was unmoving, he stared at me with his right while he spoke.

  “Stop messing around,” I said to him in the tone I use to chase away brats. “I have to take a shit, we can talk later!”


  Li ErLeng shook his square head.

  “No…… No, I want to talk now, you will accompany me.”


  His tone, his expression, no wonder it is rumored that his parents were long lost siblings.

  “What do you want to say? Isn’t it just that Shu Zhe doesn’t have the photos that he promised and you want to beat him up?”


  Li ErLeng opened a small slit in the corner of his left eye and quickly closed it again.

  “Yes…… yes! I want to beat him up! But he said that if I beat him, you will avenge him, right?”


  I probably won’t avenge him, but if Li ErLeng beat Shu Zhe right in front of me, I would be too embarrassed to be a bystander.

  After all, he is Shu Sha’s baby brother. If he was beat, it would definitely make his sister sad.

  Thus I admitted:

  “That’s right, Shu Zhe is my younger brother. I’m supporting him in 28th Middle. You better not lay your hands on him. We can discuss any issues that you want to solve.”


  In fact, what I want to solve the most is the shit in my stomach! Hurry up and move, let me go drop some bombs!

  Left arm tied with a bandage, a mystery hidden in the stomach. It was unlucky to meet Li ErLeng in this state.

  It’s best not to fight for the time being and to use words to delay him for a while. When I am healed, we can talk with violence, it is more suitable for us.

  After he heard that he can’t lay his hands on Shu Zhe, Li ErLeng laughed.

  “He…… He took my money but didn’t give me the stuff, how should we settle it?”


  Shu Zhe did receive Li ErLeng’s deposit, but because the class leader was very strict with his brother, he couldn’t take a nude photo, and the deposit was spent by him and Xiao Li.

  “There is nothing to solve,” I said. “However much he owes you, I will return it. No matter how much you pressure him, an unobtainable item will always be unobtainable.”


  Li ErzLeng had a dissatisfied expression.

  “I…… I don’t want your money, Shu Zhe also said that he would return the money, but I don’t want money, I only want photos.”


  He really is one stubborn fucker! If Shu Zhe can’t get a picture of her sister, are you going to make Shu Zhe threaten his sister with violence to take nude photos for you?

  It is impossible if you think think about it. Although the class leader is a woman, her physical state is better than that of a younger brother who does not like to exercise. If Shu Zhe dares to have that thought, the class leader would have long slapped him in the face.

  Unless, he feeds her sister a sleeping pill…… But would Shu Zhe do that? I’m a little worried……

  “The……the one named Ye, I heard that you are powerful, come, fight me. If I win, Shu Zhe would know that no one can protect him, and he should give me the photo.”


  Li ErLeng challenged without a change in expression.

  If I was my normal self, I’m not really afraid of him.

  Li ErLeng has nothing more than a fat and large body, and he is ruthless. Most of the people who have fought him have basically dropped down in fear before even fighting.

  I think otherwise. Since he is so fat, he also has a lot of places I can hit. I just need to find a gap like how Xiao Qin dealt with me, and knock him down.

  Even if I only have one hand at the moment, I am confident that I will not lose to him.

  At worst, it would be tragic victory, with a lot of blood loss.

  But to risk my life for that brat Shu Zhe, it’s not really worth it.

  So I lied to Li ErLeng and said:

  “You want the photo? I’ll give you the photo if you want it, but you have to wait for another two weeks.”


  After two weeks, my arm should be completely healed.

  “No…… no! I have been waiting for a long time…… almost……”


  He said while sticking out his fingers and slowly counting.

  “Don’t count, I’m just asking if you want the photos?”


  Li ErLeng, who had just counted to three, was suddenly interrupted by me, and his expression was a bit blank.

  “Want…… want……”


  “Then wait another two weeks…… No, one week is good! When that time comes, ask me for the photos, don’t go to Shu Zhe, okay?”


  Although I don’t know what the state of my left arm will be in a week, if worst comes to worst, I can also let Cao JingShen photoshop two high-quality photos to stall.

  Li ErLeng thought for a moment and finally nodded like a gorilla, he agreed.

  I rushed into the men’s room. If I didn’t empty the bin, it would have overflowed.

  The boys who were blocked by Li ErLeng in the toilet, held their noses and rushed to the hallway.

  Damn Shu Zhe, always giving me trouble. It seems that I have to discipline you on behalf of your sister!

  At noon, because it was inconvenient, Xiao Qin helped me get food in the cafeteria. She was going to feed me with a spoon, I didn’t agree.

  “Why not?” Xiao Qin grievously asked, “Isn’t this normal between childhood friends?”


  Hey, in your mind, it would be normal even if you sneak into the bed of your childhood friend at night!

  In addition to me and Xiao Qin, the class leader and Loud Mouth also sat with us (Little Smart was sick).

  The number one loyal dog glasses bro and his other loyal dogs were chased to a further table by the class leader on the grounds that Xiao Qin was afraid of boys.

  Now, they looked at me with grievances and started whispering to each other, maybe they wanted to teach me a lesson after school while my arm was injured.

  “Hey!” After hearing their discussion, the class leader said to them with a stiff face:

  “If you get into a fight, I don’t need you guys to help me in the class anymore!”


  After the loyal dogs heard the words of Queen Shu Sha, although they were unwilling, they had no choice but to bow down and eat.

  These people are so sad! What benefits can you get from helping Shu Sha manage the class? It’s nothing more than a bunch of chores like lifting heavy things, sanitation, and discipline. If it is me, I’m happy with nothing to do!

  Loud Mouth, while eating the rarely seen beef in the braised potatoes and beef dish, asked me in the gap between eating:

  “Ye Lin, with you injured, what happens if your enemies came for revenge?”


  I frowned and waited for her to go on.

  “Haha, it’s better to hire me as a bodyguard! See how I’ll protect you! As for the cost…… a piece of beef from your dish will do!”


  Xiao Qin pouted and protected my plate.

  “No! Ye Lin classmate should eat more meat for nutrition! The beef in my plate is also for Ye Lin classmate! Not only beef, even I……”


  Halfway through, she saw my complexion and stopped. Maybe she hasn’t adjusted after she decided that we were back to ordinary childhood friends status?

  The class leader nudged Loud Mouth with her elbow. “I don’t like meat that much, you can have the meat in my plate.”


  “Haha, the class leader is still the most generous!” Loud Mouth took a piece of beef and chewed it in her mouth with great exaggeration.

  “Other people’s meals are the most delicious!” Loud Mouth made a sigh action after eating the meat, then she turned to stare at the table of the loyal dogs.

  Headed by the number one loyal dog glasses bro, everyone pretended they didn’t noticed and bowed their heads to demolish their few remaining pieces of meat.

  Loud Mouth clicked her tongue and said with disdain: “No elegance at all! If the class leader wanted to eat meat, you would have lined up to offer it!”


  Shu Sha gave Loud Mouth a look, “Stop the nonsense, also I don’t like meat.”


  Loud Mouth slightly lowered her voice:

  “Class leader, the boys at the table over there, they listen and obey you, saying that their purpose is purely for the benefit of the 2-3 class, but aren’t they actually a ‘Shu Sha Fan Club’?”


  “You, what are you talking about!” The class leader’s face turned red in an instant.

  Loud Mouth continued to speak:

  “How about it class leader, they have so many people, I heard they even have a reserve team. Is there anyone you’re interested in? Is there!”


  Hey, isn’t this a topic that’s supposed to be privately discussed between girls? Loud Mouth, did you not see such a big man sitting here!

  Xiao Qin’s interest also piqued. “Yes, class leader, tell me, who do you like?”


  I’m guessing that she learned from shoujo manga: If you don’t like gossip, then you’re not like a real girl?

  The class leader was attacked from both sides by Loud Mouth and Xiao Qin. She seemed embarrassed, especially with a boy sitting here.

  “I, I’m just very happy that they can stand out and display ownership. I can’t manage such a large class alone. Don’t arbitrarily create speculations for them. They have contributed a lot for the class and yet they haven’t received much benefits.”


  Loud Mouth made an expression of “I don’t believe it.”


  “Every day, just the fact that they can follow your orders probably makes them very happy! They’re just a bunch of masochists! Serves them right that no one likes them!”


  “How can you say that about them……”


  “Huh? Class leader, do you disagree? Is there someone you like among them?”


  Xiao Qin also joined in on the fun: “Oh, I think the No. 1 dog…… No, I mean the glasses classmate who sits on my right side, he looks pretty good, class leader you might as well……”


  Loud Mouth was so excited that her face was red, and she added on to the words of Xiao Qin:

  “That’s right, class leader, what do you think about him? Let’s not talk about anything else, but in terms of management, he’s already an indispensable assistant, you could even call him vice class leader? Don’t tell me that he doesn’t have those intentions, because I have seen his gaze when he sneaks peeks at you, it was full of endless thoughts and kindness!”


  “Is there, really?” The class leader’s face was full of panic.

  “Ah, how moving~~~~” Xiao Qin lifted his face to make a far-sighted appearance. “It’s hard to wait for a person. Class leader, you might as well accept his feelings……”


  As expected, Xiao Qin did not really have any good intentions, she persistently tried to push the class leader to others.

  But Loud Mouth gave me a look, I wasn’t sure what kind of game she was playing.

  Initially, I wasn’t going to interject, but after looking at the expression of Loud Mouth, she would have came over to pinch me if I didn’t say anything. I was actually a little scared of her pair of big lobster claws.

  So I cleared my throat and said, “No way!”


  I was quite surprised when I finished my sentence. I thought the tone would be suave, more official, and formal. Who knew it would be such a tyrannical tone.

  Xiao Qin immediately closed her mouth as if my words took away all the strength in her body.

  Shu Sha stared at me, or she thought she was staring at me, but her gaze was weak.

  Her face became even redder.

  Loud Mouth, on the other hand, seemed satisfied with my response.

  “Why not? Ye Lin, please explain.”


  She acted like she was Bao Qingtian. (TN: Bao is an ancient righteous judge)

  “No, isn’t it simple? As the class leader, how can she take the lead in breaking school rules and start dating?”


  I tried my best to justify myself with reasonable arguments.

  “Suspicious!” Loud Mouth wanted to say something else, but was pinched on the arm by Shu Sha, so she stopped.

  For the remainder of the lunch break, Shu Sha did not talk to me again.

  Did you finally realize that the boys in the class are not the same as your younger brother? Did you realize that you should correct the way you order them?

  No, wait! In the information class in the afternoon, the loyal dogs were instructed to help the teacher move the printer. I don’t know if it’s because she heard what Loud Mouth said and knew that they had ulterior motives. She also seemed a bit angry when she was ordering them around and her tone was meaner than usual.

  The loyal dogs didn’t care, but instead they beamed with joy. It seems like being abused by the class leader’s words was something good for them.

  I really can’t figure it out! If you won’t change the way you manage classes, why are you not talking to me?
