Chapter 194: The Face Slap Came So Quickly Just Like a Tornado (2)
Translator: StarveCleric Editor: Milkbiscuit
In her dream, she was blissfully gobbling down the food she loved. However, that utopia in her dream didn’t last for too long. The world before her blurred, and she saw Qin Yiran viciously swinging a stick towards her and Lin Jiage. Lin Jiage was hugging her tightly in his arms, and despite the deafening cacophony around her, she could still clearly hear his words in her ears “Soft Bun, happy birthday. Happy birthday, s.h.i.+ Yao.” The world before her blurred once more, and suddenly, she found herself being pressed down on the bed, and Lin Jiage’s face was just inches away from hers…
…
Sunday, the day that s.h.i.+ Yao had to return to school. Of course, she also didn’t forget to bring along the ‘trash’ she had collected as a waste disposal stop.
Because Lin Jiage had given her too much ‘trash’, s.h.i.+ Yao couldn’t lug them all by herself, so she made a distress call to Leng Nuan and the others just as she was approaching the school.
When s.h.i.+ Yao finally arrived at the school, she got off the car and saw Leng Nuan, He Tiantian, and Jiang Yue.
After paying for the cab fare, she beckoned them over and said, “Help me take this tra—”
Before the word ‘trash’ could escape from her mouth, s.h.i.+ Yao realized that she was all mixed up because of Lin Jiage, and she quickly changed her words, “—stuff up!”
Not too long after, the four ladies were lugging up bags of all kinds of items up to their dormitory room.
On the way, s.h.i.+ Yao received quite a lot of complaints and criticisms.
Leng Nuan: “Yaoyao, have you gone mad? Are you moving an entire fruits store to school?”
He Tiantian: “Yaoyao, do you know that fruits are high in sugar, and eating too much of them will make you fat?”
Jiang Yue: “Yaoyao, are you planning to live off these fruits this week?”
s.h.i.+ Yao: “It’s not that. It’s just trash that someone else threw away, so I took them in.”
Jiang Yue: “What? Who is so extravagant that they’d treat this like trash?”
He Tiantian: “Give me that person’s address, I’ll visit him every day to collect his trash and open a fruits store and strike it rich…”
“…”
After arriving at the dormitory room, the group could finally place down the bags in their hands. Leng Nuan drank half a cup of water before cutting into He Tiantian and Jiang Yue’s relentless jabs, “Alright alright, let’s not talk about the fruits for now. Let’s get to the main topic…”
“What main topic?” s.h.i.+ Yao asked as she picked out the largest watermelon and carried it to the bathroom to wash it.
Under Leng Nuan’s reminder, Jiang Yue immediately spoke up, “Oh yeah, Yaoyao, let me tell you something tragic. You were supposed to partic.i.p.ate in the 100-meter sprint for the Sports Meet, but there’s been some kind of mess up, and you ended up being signed up for the 10km marathon instead.”
He Tiantian: “What do you mean by mess up? It’s clearly Qin Yiran pulling some strings from the shadows! She’s in the Student Union, and she’s responsible for the Sports Meet. She took first place for the Women’s 10km Marathon last year, so she intentionally signed up Yaoyao just to thrash her in that event! Then, she’d be able to stir up another storm in the school forums!”
Jiang Yue: “How can there be someone that despicable in this world? She just won’t give up, huh? To switch a 100-meter sprint to a 10km marathon…”
Compared to the duo, who were discussing the unimportant aspects, Leng Nuan got to the crux of the issue in an instant, “Yaoyao, I tried reasoning with the cla.s.s leader, but he said that the list has already been fixed and can’t be changed anymore. He said that if you really can’t run, it’s fine if you just show your face and walk it out too.”
“I see…” s.h.i.+ Yao replied. After that, she pa.s.sed the watermelon slices over to her three roommates and said, “… Here, have some watermelon.”
Jiang Yue looked at s.h.i.+ Yao, whose mouth was already busy gobbling down a watermelon slice. She shot her a disdainful look and said, “Yaoyao, did you hear what we said?”
