Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Little Zhu, the zone leader is organizing a campfire party today. We will leave first.”
Little Zhu, who was hard at work, raised his head and nodded at the bunch of people.
After they left, he threw away the things in his hands placed his fingers on his chin. He started zoning out.
The sky was getting darker. The campfire reflected on the transparent mirror and the noises outside flowed in.
Little Zhu took out his phone. After a while, he put it back again.
He patted his face. “Why do I have to care whether he is going or not!”
Little Zhu left and joined the bustling crowd outside.
The atmosphere of the planet beca lively because of the noisy crowd. Little Zhu saw Ming Shu and Ji Nian on the other side of the crowd.
Ji Nian was doing sothing and Ming Shu was pushing him away with a look of disdain.
Little Zhu watched them quietly. Master Ji is a different person when he is in front of our zone leader.
“Jealous?”
Little Zhu got a fright. Shi Xing had appeared behind him. The fake cat in his arms suddenly moved.
Little Zhu was shocked. “It....”
Shi Xing didn’t have any reaction. “I installed a system inside it. It is still under testing.”
“Oh.”
Little Zhu found a place at the side to sit down. “Shi Xing, I always wanted to ask you why you must carry that cat all the ti.”
He knew that the cat was preserved using special ans.
In other words, it was a specin.
It was made from a real cat.
When he first learned this information, he was so frightened he didn’t eat for a few days.
Shi Xing sat down with him. “It was my only companion when I was young. I would have died without it.”
“You ate it?”
Shi Xing: “...”
“It found food for .”
Little Zhu scratched his head and laughed awkwardly.
“I rember that you ca to Technology City with him.”
Little Zhu blinked. He took a while to realize who Shi Xing was talking about.
He smiled. “Yes.”
He managed to get into the university in Technology City so he went to Technology City to study. Curly Hair ca with him.
He had known Curly Hair for a long ti.
Curly Hair’s family was rich. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
As for him...
He was an orphan. He didn’t know who his parents were and what his surna was. He didn’t even know his own na.
Curly Hair... gave him his na.
He first t him when he was in junior high. Of course, soone like him would never be in the sa school as Curly Hair, but Curly Hair was a delinquent then. He liked to go to the shops around his school with his sidekicks.
Little Zhu needed to pay his school fees himself so he worked part-ti at a dessert shop.
Curly Hair would always bring people to his shop. He was always the leader among his friends.
His hair was blue in color. It was very striking, but Little Zhu didn’t like the color.
That day, unluckily, Little Zhu bumped into Curly Hair having a fight with soone and he lost.
Curly Hair was in a bad mood. He threatened him and warned him against spreading rumors.
In the next few days, Curly Hair would always appear at the dessert shop once whenever he was working. He seed to be following him.
“What is your na?”
Curly Hair had been watching over him for a few days, but he was still worried.
“I....” Little Zhu paused. “Don’t worry, I didn’t see anything that day.”
Curly Hair was a little impatient. “I’m asking for your na.”
Little Zhu took a step back. “I don’t have a na.”
“No na?” Curly Hair smiled. “You are a student from the neighboring school, right? How can you go to school if you don’t have a na? Are you trying to fool ?”
“I used soone else’s identity card,” Little Zhu said.
The school he went to was not a governnt school so he just needed to get a fake identity card and pay money to the school to get in.
“Oh.”
Curly Hair seed to have lost interest in him and left with his sidekicks after paying the bill.
After this, Curly Hair seldom visited the dessert shop. Whenever he did, he would look at Little Zhu mysteriously.
Little Zhu took it as a warning.
One day, Curly Hair ca into his shop alone. It was raining outside so he was drenched. There was blood on his body too.
“What... what happened to you?” Little Zhu plucked up his courage and asked.
Did you lose a fight again?
Curly Hair knew what he was thinking and got irritated. “What are you thinking? Pour a glass of water for .”
“Oh, okay.”
He was the only one in the shop so he poured him a glass of water and got him a towel.
Little Zhu looked at the arm that was injured and asked, “Do you want to bandage it for you?”
“You know how to do that?” Curly Hair was surprised.
Little Zhu muttered, “I got used to doing it.”
Curly Hair gave him a strange look and agreed to let him treat his wound.
The wound on Curly Hair’s arm was quite deep. There was no dicine in the shop but Little Zhu brought his own. He cleaned the wound and then bandaged it after applying the dicine.
Little Zhu rembered that it rained for a long ti that day.
Curly Hair lay on the sofa and looked out of the window in a daze.
When he was leaving, he said, “You don’t have a na, right?”
Little Zhu paused for a mont and nodded his head.
“You can call yourself Little Zhu.”
Cling—
The wind chis at the entrance rang softly. The young man disappeared in the rain.
Soone gave him a na on that rainy day.
Little Zhu stood at the entrance for a long ti before he regained his senses.
He asked Curly Hair before why he gave him this na. Curly Hair told him nonchalantly that Zhu had the sa pronunciation as a pig. He was as stupid as a pig so he gave him this na.
The good feelings that Little Zhu that toward him disappeared.
Curly Hair started coming more frequently and their relationship got better.
He worked many jobs when he was in junior high and senior high.
However, Curly Hair would be able to find him no matter where he went.
“I’m going to take the examination for Technology City’s university,” Little Zhu told Curly Hair one afternoon.
“You?” Curly Hair poked his head. “Do you know what Technology City is?”
Little Zhu smiled. “I know. It is the most technologically advanced place in the whole interstellar world. As long as you are able to get into Technology City, you will not need to worry about your life anymore.”
“I am impressive too. I got awards before.”
“Your awards ant nothing to Technology City.” Curly Hair exposed him rcilessly.
“I will definitely get in!” Little Zhu raised his voice instinctively.
“Amazing. You dare to shout at now.” Curly Hair pinned him to the ground and beat him up.
Then...
He really succeeded.
On the spaceship to Technology City, he t Curly Hair.
When they were bidding each other farewell a few days ago, he looked nonchalant...
“Such a coincidence.” Curly Hair greeted him casually. “The little pig is quite impressive. You really succeeded.”
“Why... Why are you here?” Little Zhu was stunned.
“I’m going to school.” Curly Hair sneered. “Can’t I take the examination for Technology City too?”
Little Zhu swallowed. “But... you never seem to study.”
Curly Hair clicked his tongue. “Do you know well enough?”
Little Zhu: “...”
Every ti he saw Curly Hair, he would be either playing or fighting. He never saw him doing any serious things before.
As soone born to a rich family, he could lead a good life even if he didn’t study well.
Curly Hair turned and left. He ignored Little Zhu for the rest of the journey.
Little Zhu self-reflected. After knowing him for so long, he only knew that he was called Cheng Yu.
He heard this na when other people called him. Cheng Yu never told him anything about himself.
But he told him everything...
So why was he angry? He was the one that didn’t say anything.
