Chapter 917: Good Intentions Gone Wrong
During our morning self-study session, Xiao Qin felt ashad when she saw the band-aids on my face.
“Ye Lin classmate, the person who appeared in front of you yesterday wasn’t ! Just think of him as my evil twin brother! Please don’t bear a grudge against , okay!”
Unbelievable. She was the sa person who trampled to the ground viciously and hit my face until it turned swollen.
“Huh? Yesterday you beat and today you’re pretending to be innocent?” I said angrily, “Didn’t you say that I’m as weak as a dog? Didn’t you say that whether or not I deduct your stars doesn’t matter? In that case…”
“No!” Xiao Qin suddenly raised her voice to the extent where it attracted our classmates’ attention, “Please don’t deduct the thousand stars that I worked hard to earn…”
“It’s hundreds! Why are you still trying to increase the numbers of stars at this ti! It looks like you haven’t reflected on your mistakes at all! Did it feel good when you gave a beating?”
“You can’t deduct my stars.” Xiao Qin sounded like she was about to cry, “You can’t hit if you still aren’t satisfied! You can hit my face until it gets swollen, even if it gets swollen like deep-sea fish…”
“Are you saying I look like deep-sea fish right now? I had to bandage my face and you’re making fun of my appearance…”
The class leader ca over and the first thing she asked was: “Ye Lin, what happened to your face? Don’t tell it was when you caught up to Xiao Qin yesterday and she…”
“No! It definitely wasn’t because Xiao Qin hit !” I quickly denied it to avoid embarrassnt, “After Xiao Qin got drunk, she climbed up a tree like a monkey. I accidentally fell and injured myself when I tried to pull her down!”
Xiao Qin seed to be very dissatisfied with my lie:
“I wasn’t acting like a monkey! How could you describe a girl as a monkey…”
I pointed to the front row of the classroom, where Xiong YaoYue was wearing Little Smart’s hair clip horizontally on her forehead and imitated the tightening spell from ‘Journey to the West’.
“Who says girls can’t act like monkeys? Isn’t that a monkey with the Sun surna?”
It wasn’t only Sun Wukong who had a tightening headband spell in Journey to the West. The black bear demon who guarded the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South Sea for Guanyin Bodhisattva also had one, but it was a bit too cruel to describe Xiong YaoYue as a black bear demon.
“Thankfully, this happened after your heart… after your waist injury healed.” the class leader found it both amusing and was slightly also worried, “No matter what Xiao Qin did while drunk, it wasn’t intentional —— so you won’t bla her, will you?”
“Yeah, that’s right!” Xiao Qin chid in with the class leader’s support, “I don’t rember anything after getting drunk! It’s like having my mory erased by the n in black! It’s too cruel to punish for sothing I can’t rember!”
“The reason why Xiao Qin was drunk was because I brought back alcoholic candies from a wedding.” the class leader voluntarily took responsibility, “It’s my fault because I didn’t double check, so don’t wholly bla Xiao Qin —— besides, didn’t you injure yourself when you fell off a tree?”
“Um… yeah! Of course I injured it when I fell off a tree!” I said awkwardly, “What else could could it be other than a fall injury or do you think soone hit ? I’m really strong, so if anyone hits …”
Xiao Qin put on a serious expression while I was talking, but it looked like she was trying really hard to suppress her laughter which was infuriating.
In the end, the class leader decided to set up a table of food with Xiao Qin this weekend to apologize to . Additionally, it would be an opportunity to teach Xiao Qin so recipes she had always wanted to learn —— the class leader was now quite proficient in French cuisine.
The class leader didn’t really didn’t say anything about what Xiao Qin said yesterday about “from now on, you’re my girl” as Xiao Qin claid to have no mory after getting drunk. Also, since they were both girls, the class leader simply took it as a joke.
After temporarily resolving this matter, rumors began circulating at 28 Middle about a fight between and a professional boxer.
The rumors were detailed and said the professional boxer was called Lei Long. Apparently, his wish since he was born was to beat up (no one knew what kind of prenatal education his mother gave him). Just yesterday, he finally caught up with on my way ho from skipping school and struck my right cheek with his ‘golden left hand’.
I couldn’t handle it anymore, so when a few students from other classes were discussing it, I asked them where Lei Long was now and why his sole purpose seed to beat up before disappearing without a trace?
The ignorant people could only nod in response. Half a day later, a new version of the rumor erged: after Lei Long hit Ye Lin’s right cheek, Ye Lin went mad bit Lei Long to death, and then threw his body into the Da Ning River.
Damn it! Why would I bite opponents to death? Do I have rabies? And please, stop throwing bodies into the Da Ning River! It’s already filled with corpses from nurous versions of rumors!
That being said, despite the rumors, Xiao Qin sincerely admitted her mistake to . For example, at noon, she voluntarily went to food stall street to buy fried rice for and even gave the shrimp from her lunch box. She blinked her eyes and tried to act cute, hoping I would forget everything from yesterday.
How could I forget! I completely rember yesterday’s events and also every little thing we experienced together in our childhood ca rushing back to !
“I’ll let it slide this ti for the class leader and Auntie Ren’s sake.”
I didn’t eat the shrimp Xiao Qin offered and returned it to her.
“I won’t deduct your 105 gold stars for now, but you can’t drink anymore, understand? You were way out of line yesterday, especially with the centipede…”
“I understand.” Xiao Qin muttered and nodded, “I took a thorough shower when I got ho yesterday, and I washed my hands twenty to thirty tis. Just the thought of touching sothing so disgusting…”
“Hey! Didn’t you say you don’t rember anything after getting drunk?!”
“Well, just a little bit~~~” Xiao Qin pouted, “It’s because centipedes are so disgusting, so I rember it clearly. I can’t really rember the other less disgusting things…”
Well, should I be grateful that you classified as “less disgusting”?
Xiao Qin vowed never to touch alcoholic food or drinks from then on, and she promised to do good deeds wholeheartedly to erase the bad impression she left on yesterday. She was determined to excel in every aspect from now on.
However, as the saying goes, ‘more haste, less speed’, Xiao Qin tried to do a good deed in the afternoon, but it ended up being very counterproductive.
As I ntioned before, Mr. Song, the horoom teacher for class 3-2, beca our temporary horoom teacher. He ca to inspect our class just before the normal class hours ended and evening self-study began. He noticed that the power plug of the projector screen was loose, so he squatted down to adjust it.
There weren’t many people in the classroom at the ti and the class leader wasn’t there either. Mr. Song tried to adjust the power plug left and right but couldn’t stabilize it (because the teaching equipnt was old and poorly maintained). At that mont, Xiao Qin, along with Loud Mouth and Little Smart, ca back into the classroom through the front door ——
Unfortunately, Mr. Song’s clothes had a buildup of static electricity and it shocked him, so he instinctively shook his hand.
“Ah! Mr. Song got shocked!”
Xiao Qin was eager to perform a good deed and she thought this was a perfect opportunity sent from above. She rushed up to the lectern without much consideration, and using her rubber-soled sneakers, she kicked Mr. Song’s other arm, which was holding the plug.
“Ah Ah Ah~~!!!!”
Mr. Song fell over with a wail. He was sent to the hospital with a broken wrist and Auntie Ren paid the dical bills and apologized profusely.
Both Loud Mouth and Little Smart were bystanders and spoke up for Xiao Qin.
“Mr. Song really looked like he was being shocked! He’s not an electrician, so why was he fixing the socket.”
“I was going to look for a broom, but who knew Xiao Qin was too fast and directly kicked him…”
That day, another rumor spread: whoever becos the horoom teacher of class 3-3 will get bad luck. First it was Mr. Yu who got stabbed on the butt, and then the young graduate who took over as horoom teacher for a few days fell seriously ill. It seed like a curse was at play.
Furthermore, so people expressed regret, saying it was unbelievable that Xiao Qin, such a quiet girl, had been influenced by because we spent too much ti together. They couldn’t believe she would dare to kick a teacher simply because I told her to do it.
Damn it! Xiao Qin was just too eager to earn gold stars and she misjudged the situation. What does it have to do with ? Also what do you an I told her to do it? Why would I have a decades long grudge against the teachers?!
Anyway, Xiao Qin felt even more ashad due to her consecutive mistakes. She even sat in the corner of the classroom closest to during breaks to reflect on her actions. Fortunately, the class leader listened to Loud Mouth and Little Smart’s testimonies, so she knew that Xiao Qin had good intentions, so she comforted her.
“Don’t be sad. Auntie Ren didn’t bla you either, right? Regardless of what the rumors say, you know the truth. If Mr. Song really did get shocked, then you might have saved his life, right? Also, I heard that Mr. Song doesn’t bla you either…”
That’s true. Mr. Song, class 3-2’s horoom teacher, wasn’t particularly narrow-minded. However, he felt quite sad about having his arm broken by a slender girl like Xiao Qin and thought it was a sign of his bones becoming fragile due to old age.
In any case, Mr. Song’s arm was put in a cast, and he would have to be absent from his own class for a few days. Moreover, he had developed so fears regarding our class and couldn’t continue as our substitute teacher. So, we, the students of our class, once again beca sheep without a shepherd.
It was a dire situation, so the vice-principal actually sent the owl head teacher to beco our temporary horoom teacher. As soon as she took over, class 3-3’s students were on edge and feared doing anything that could give her cause to issue severe punishnt.
However, the owl teacher was relatively lenient towards . Firstly, she liked to bully the weak and feared the strong, and secondly, she was Xing Xing’s aunt, so things started off smoothly —— after all, it was just a temporary asure. Besides, her hunting ground was the entire playground and the entire school, so how could this small class 3-3 classroom confine her?
Wednesday quickly arrived and marked the middle of the week. Additionally, November 6th had a rather tongue-twisting na called the ‘International Day for Preventing the Exploitation of the Environnt in War and Ard Conflict’.
Initially, when I heard about it, I thought soone made it up to trick . But upon further investigation, I discovered it was indeed real and it was declared by the United Nations General Assembly in 2001.
Eunuch Cao jokingly suggested that this commorative day should be renad ‘International Day for Preventing the Exploitation of Won in War and Ard Conflict’. He even held a “referendum” among classmates, only to be caught in the act by teacher Owl and sent to stand in the corridor as punishnt.
