Chapter 403 – Student Duties
Xiao Qin was incomparably energetic after giving herself a cat characteristic.
I’ve heard her humming a song in a strange tune: “There was a cat~?”
I’m guess she can’t remember the following lines as she only repeated those words.
In the afternoon break, Captain Guo SongTao called me to practice with Niu ShiLi and he almost got into a fight with Shen ShaoYi.
Here’s what happened. Since Shen ShaoYi had a misunderstanding about me and Xiong YaoYue, he vowed he would make cla.s.s 2-3 lose worse than last year. Niu ShiLi was from our cla.s.s, so he was caught in the cross hairs. As Shen ShaoYi broke through Niu ShiLi’s defense, they began arguing about if it was a foul hit.
Even Guo SongTao couldn’t understand why Shen ShaoYi had such a violent temper today. Niu ShiLi initially held it in a bit, but it was more than he could bear and he began shoving Shen ShaoYi. Shen ShaoYi may be good at basketball, but he’s not as built as Niu ShiLi. He was almost pushed down and he would have rushed straight at Niu ShiLi if other team members didn’t hold him back.
“Shen ShaoYi, what’s wrong?” Liu HuaiShui, a member also from cla.s.s 2-2, asked, “I’ve never seen you be so serious about these incidents before. It happened all the time when Ye Lin was guarding against you.”
“Don’t mention Ye Lin, I don’t want to hear his name.” Shen ShaoYi yelled hysterically with bloodshot eyes.
In the end, the basketball team members still had a better relationship with Shen ShaoYi, so it couldn’t be helped that a newcomer like Niu ShiLi was alienated. It’s a good thing the captain stepped in between them to prevent them from fighting.
I still had some responsibility if we look at the source of the problem. As a man, I couldn’t just stand by and watch, so I walked over and spoke to Shen ShaoYi:
“Shen ShaoYi, I was the one who upset you, so don’t take out your anger on other students.”
Niu ShiLi couldn’t understand my reasons for defending him.
Shen ShaoYi bit his lips until they bled and glared at me without speaking a word.
“The misunderstanding between us may not be cleared up in a couple of words. But believe me, we should calm down and sit down together and have a talk….”
“I only believe in what I saw.”
His heart already shattered after seeing me pressing Xiong YaoYue against the wall while she wasn’t wearing anything underneath. It’s easier said than done to make him calm down.
The basketball team members began to whisper to each other, “What happened between Ye Lin and Shen ShaoYi?”, “I don’t know, neither of them said anything.”
I walked closer to Shen ShaoYi.
“We can talk about our stuff later just don’t go looking for trouble with students from our cla.s.s.”
Of course I was referring to Niu ShiLi. Niu ShiLi, who was looking forward to me drinking Fu Yan Jie, seemed to be a bit ashamed.
“Shen ShaoYi, if you’re still mad, you can kick me a few times as long as you don’t kick my family jewels.”
Even though he was being held back, his legs still had a free range of motion. He rubbed his shoes against the ground, but didn’t kick me.
I thought it was because the one thing he hated the most was my family jewels, so he wouldn’t calm down if he couldn’t hit my family jewels. But I discovered the real reason when I looked in another direction. Xiong YaoYue was running laps on the track and field around the basketball court.
Xiong YaoYue wasn’t even looking at us, but Shen ShaoYi held it in because he wanted to leave a good memory and didn’t want to fight in front of the person he liked.
Shen ShaoYi wouldn’t reveal why he wanted to fight me, but Niu ShiLi understood Shen ShaoYi wasn’t targeting him and they were both finally able to calm down with some persuasion from the captain.
Before I left, I thanked the captain for taking care of my cla.s.smate (Niu ShiLi) and also said the misunderstanding with Shen ShaoYi will be cleared over time. Niu ShiLi didn’t feel good as he stood to the side listening to my words.
But please don’t misunderstand, I’m not a good person. The reason why I defended Niu ShiLi is because it’s partially my fault the fight occurred. Another reason is I have to help my cla.s.smates as the PE committee member of cla.s.s 2-3.
I honestly hoped the cla.s.s leader could have seen me mediating the conflict. She always says I use violence to solve everything, but this time I was able to solve it peacefully, so maybe her impression of me would improve.
I looked around but didn’t see the cla.s.s leader.
Though I did see Little Smart holding a notebook while trembling in anger.
I had a bad premonition.
As expected, a terrible rumor quickly spread around 28 Middle. It said me, captain Guo SongTao, Shen ShaoYi, and Niu ShiLi was in a love rectangle.
Based on the different versions, it doesn’t seem like Little Smart was the only one spreading it.
Version one: Captain Guo SongTao and Shen ShaoYi were gay partners, but I was trying to interfere while Niu ShiLi was chasing after me.
Version two: Captain Guo SongTao, me, and Niu ShiLi were all pitchers while Shen ShaoYi was a catcher. And the three of us were all fighting over Shen ShaoYi.
Version three, which is also the worst version: They gave us the nickname of the ‘Gay 4’ and said we wanted to make the basketball team our base camp and turn the entire 28 Middle into gays, where all new boys coming to our school would have their a.s.ses offered to the four of us.
All you d.a.m.n fujoshi… now the four of us tries not to get close to each other at all (but of course Shen ShaoYi was already avoiding me).
According to the schedule, it was supposed to be me and one of the cla.s.s leader’s loyal dogs turn to clean the cla.s.sroom after school. But that loyal dog had something to do, so he pleaded Gong CaiCai to subst.i.tute for him and she agreed.
Since Gong CaiCai can’t really refuse others, anytime a student on duty is busy, they would ask Gong CaiCai to help them. The girls love to do this, but you can’t get caught by the cla.s.s leader or she would make you subst.i.tute for Gong CaiCai.
Xiao Qin pouted when she heard I had to stay behind with Gong CaiCai:
“I want to stay behind with Ye Lin cla.s.smate. How can I feel at ease letting you be along with the dairy cattle.”
Gong CaiCai went to take out the mop from the cleaning closet in bewilderment after being called a dairy cattle.
“Xiao Qin, have you even cleaned after school after transferring here?” I asked.
“It’s because my body is weak…”
“I’ll be in charge of the floor, you go help Gong CaiCai with the tables.”
“I don’t want to wipe tables, I want to clean the floor with Ye Lin cla.s.smate…”
“Hurry and go, if you don’t, I’ll remove you from the girlfriend spot.”
Xiao Qin puffed out her cheeks, picked up a cloth and began cleaning from the first desk.
I told Gong CaiCai I’ll clean the floors and she could help Xiao Qin with the tables. I even told her to clean slower and let Xiao Qin do more work.
Gong CaiCai was curious: “Xiao Qin cla.s.smate has a weaker body, why are you making her do more work, also…. didn’t you kiss her? Shouldn’t you treat her better and let her work less?”
I smiled at Gong CaiCai and said: “It’s beneficial to make Xiao Qin exercise a bit more. The main reason is because she’s not as cute as you.”
Gong CaiCai’s face flushed red. At the same time, you could hear the sound of wood cracking coming from Xiao Qin’s direction.
Great, my womanizer plan is finally having some effects.
I stood on top of the lectern pondering if I should sweep first or mop first.
Of course, based on common sense, you would sweep first then wipe.
But I already told Xiao Qin and Gong CaiCai to wipe the tables. If I sweep the floor, would dust rise up and stick onto the tables?
Oh, when the cla.s.s leader sweeps, she would first sprinkle a bit of water on the ground to prevent dust from rising. I have to find a basin and get some water…
As I was looking for a basin, the cla.s.s leader bustled in carry her bag in one hand and a small cla.s.s uniform in her other hand.
“Cai Cai, you helped someone else subst.i.tute for cla.s.s duties again?” The cla.s.s leader looked helplessly at Gong CaiCai, who only nodded in response.
“Whatever, I was also looking for you.” It was clear the cla.s.s leader ran back as she was trying to catch her breath, “As I pa.s.sed the clothing factory, I remembered Geng YuHong specifically asked for an extra large size, but you didn’t… I’m afraid it wouldn’t fit on you, so… can you go and try it on and see if it fits.”
Gong CaiCai took the shirt from the cla.s.s leader and headed to the washroom.
I began to laugh as Gong CaiCai left the room.
It’s natural Loud Mouth needs a larger size cause she’s fat, but Gong CaiCai needs a larger one because her b.r.e.a.s.t.s are too large.
I couldn’t control my laughs as I thought back when the shirt also restricted the cla.s.s leader’s b.r.e.a.s.t.s.
“Wbat’s so funny?” The cla.s.s leader inquired me as I stood on the lectern while not doing any work, “Why aren’t you doing anything, and letting Gong CaiCai…. and Xiao Qin do all the work?”
