[R18] Pretending to be a scumbag – “Pretending to Be a Scumbag” Chapter 34 [English]

Chapter 34

Gu Xuelan’s birthday is the day after tomorrow.

Xie Yu didn’t go back to live not because he couldn’t bear it mentally, but because he couldn’t bear to part with the whole box of study materials under the bed in the dormitory.

He Chao said “Oh” after hearing this, and then said in a confused way: “Happy birthday.”

“…”

He Chao obviously wanted to say something about “good health and everything goes well” before he started to speak, but was ruthlessly interrupted by the killer.

“Okay, that’s enough, thank you.” Xie Yu made a gesture of closing his fingers towards He Chao, “Stop it.”

“This action of yours is similar to the emoticon that Shen Jie sent me.” He Chao imitated it, then spread his fingers and said, “Let go.”

Xie Yu: “…” Let it go.

He Chao had no idea what the Chinese homework Tang Sen had just assigned was.

He sat in his seat and wandered for a while, then patted the shoulder of the classmate sitting in front of him, borrowed that classmate’s homework notebook and copied it over.

The classmate in the front seat was very puzzled. The whole class knew that He Chao basically didn’t do homework, so he boldly asked: “Do you want to do homework?”

He Chao said while copying: “What if. You can’t say for sure. It depends on fate. Maybe which job looks particularly pleasing to the eye, and even fate can’t stop it.”

It was probably the first time that classmate heard such a serious “job assignment theory”, and he was amazed.

He Chao copied two copies, returned the record book to the front seat, and patted one copy on Xie Yu’s desk: “Take it, just in case a miracle happens.”

Xie Yu lowered his head and glanced at the unrecognizable shit words on the paper. He thought to himself that he couldn’t even understand it. If a miracle happened, there would be ghosts.

he folded the paper, couldn’t find a place to throw it away, and stuffed it into his pocket. He Chao asked again: “When is your birthday?”

Xie Yu turned his face back, really upset when he looked at him. The shadow in the corridor just now still lingered.A row of heads poked out of a row of windows, looking at them with dumbfounded expressions.

Wanda even covered her eyes, as if she didn’t want to see anything wrong with her.

Growing up, he had never had any weird scandals with anyone. After meeting He Chao, he discovered that the world is full of strange things.

“Students who stay at school during the weekend must strictly abide by the rules for dormitory students.” Tang Sen found a chair and sat down. It seemed that he wanted to chat with them until school was over. “We have to believe in science. I almost forgot about the dormitory building last weekend. Wanda, don’t lower your head. I really can’t see that you have so many ideas.”

Settlement of accounts after autumn.

Our teacher Ban Tang’s reflex arc is particularly long.

Sometimes I thought he really didn’t care, but when he relaxed his vigilance and felt that everything was over and the times were calm and peaceful, he was suddenly taken away by Old Tang and lectured: “Hey, you guys last month”

“You’ll die if you tell me,” He Chao looked sideways at Xie Yu, then leaned down to be on the same level as he, reaching out to touch his hair, “When is your birthday?”

Xie Yu said: “I will die.”

He Chao did not continue to insist on this question. Within a few minutes, the topic changed from birthday date to “How old are you? You must be younger than me.”

Xie Yu is now particularly sensitive to the word “little”, such as “little friend”.

So Xie Yu sat up, with a bad look on his face, and asked: “Why are you so young? Why is he so young?”

As a result, the two compared their birth years, and He Chao was one year older than he.

“Call me brother,” He Chao said with a smile, “I told you that you are young and you still don’t believe me.”

Xie Yu always felt that He Chao was setting him up.

He Chao leaned back with his legs crossed, the front legs of the chair underneath him tilted up, his posture was slouched, his center of gravity shifted to the back, and his whole person looked a bit wobbly.

He Chao raised his head and looked forward, his eyes passing through the backs of the heads of the classmates in the front row and falling straight on the blackboard. On the blackboard were several lines of blackboard writing with neat handwriting. The sound of Tang Sen chanting sutras in his ears suddenly became farther and farther away from him.

After a while, Xie Yu heard He Chao say lightly: “You must be younger than me. I re-study in the third grade of junior high school.”

Xie Yu’s first reaction was: No wonder no one said He Chao cheated in high school with his grades.

Back then, Xie Yu’s name spread throughout the whole grade, but He Chao had nothing to do with it.

It turned out to be a reread.

It makes sense to re-study. A poor student with terrible grades, re-study and some bad luck, finally got to the end of college.

Xie Yu looked at He Chao’s casual look, holding the pen in his hand and twirling it with a few fingers.

The 10-minute math paper was still spread out on He Chao’s desk. It had been corrected, but he just copied two lines before getting distracted for a while, and the handwriting was messy and looked messy.

Xie Yu was a little curious: “How many years have you been re-reading?”

“” He Chao said, “One year, what’s wrong?”

Xie Yu: “It’s nothing. I thought it would take at least three years for you to start.”

He Chao felt that these words were uncomfortable to hear: “What about me? Aren’t you similar to me? Secondly, can I touch on your scores and talk?”

While talking, the bell rang.

Everyone cheered, and Wanda even stood on a chair, waving her test paper and shouting: “liberated – comrades are liberated!”

Tang Sen interrupted his speech, shook his head, stood up and gave the last words: “Don’t leave in a hurry, pack everything, don’t leave it behind, students on duty today should clean the classroom before leaving.”

Xie Yu had nothing to pack. He Chao stayed on campus during the weekend and continued to rock on the chair. He even leaned back and waved to He: “Goodbye, kid.”

Xie Yu didn’t say anything. When he passed behind He Chao, he raised his foot and kicked him directly. He simply said: “Try calling him again.”

He Chao instantly lost his balance and was about to fall backwards with his chair. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and found the most handsome landing position when he fell. He put one hand on the ground and said, “Fuck.”

The chair fell down and hit the ground with a loud bang.

Wanda waved the test paper for a while, then on a whim, she folded it into a paper airplane, put it to her mouth and breathed: “——Fly, fly, free bird.”

Liu Cunhao saw it and folded the math test paper on the table: “Dada, let me show you something more powerful.”

Tang Sen had just walked to the door, and the class was already in such chaos. He put his hands behind his back, holding a cup of health tea for middle-aged and elderly people, and said with emotion: “Young people are really passionate.”

Xie Yu didn’t take anything. He would go back to school after sleeping for two nights anyway.

Gu Xuelan was more concerned: “Just carry a schoolbag and bring your homework and everything else. He has them at home.”

“I know, I’ll figure it out myself.” Xie Yu was covered with nothing but his cell phone and change, and that was the Miracle homework paper he forgot to throw away.

After leaving the school gate, I made sure that no Zhong family driver was waiting in a luxury car at the door, and then I walked to the bus stop.

“It’s so hot that you don’t want anyone to pick you up. You have to be basking in the sun and crowded with people,” Gu Xuelan said. “Be careful on the road.”

Xie Yu said “Okay” and hung up the phone.

Xie Yu actually had no idea about birthdays. The birthday in his memory had no cake, no shock or surprise, and it was not a lively scene.

Just a bowl of hot noodles.

In order to save money, Ms. Gu doesn’t celebrate her birthday, but every year on Xie Yu’s birthday, Ms. Gu will give him a bowl of noodles.

After eating it, my whole body felt hot. I couldn’t explain why, I just felt that my whole body felt warm.

Zhong Jie came back over the weekend. After he went to college, in addition to school, he interned in the company with Zhong Guofei and would soon take over the company.

Xie Yu has been in the Zhong family for three years, and there has been no disturbance and silence. Everyone knows that he cannot help Adou. In addition to being unhappy, Zhong Jie also feels a little happy in his heart.

“I heard that you did well in the monthly exam this time?” Zhong Jie asked angrily as soon as Xie Yu entered the door.

Xie Yu changed his shoes and put his hands on the shoe cabinet. He lowered his head and couldn’t see his expression clearly: “Thank you.”

Gu Xuelan walked out of the living room, knowing that her son was coming back today, and Zhong Jie happened to be there too, so she cooked several dishes herself: “The food is ready, hurry up and eat.”

Zhong Jie sat on the sofa and sneered, not knowing what he was laughing at.

Probably due to the influence of He Chao, Xie Yu found that his temper had improved a lot. With the attitude of “you are angry, I am not angry”, he actually finished the meal quietly.

And Zhong Jie found that Xie Yu was becoming more and more difficult to deal with. From being angry at one point to making sarcastic remarks, Zhong Jie came back this time and simply ignored him and regarded him as nothing.

After the meal, Gu Xuelan took Xie Yu and planned to cut a few plates of fruit for them to take upstairs to eat.

Xie Yu helped her wash the fruits together. The two of them crowded in the kitchen, and the water washed over their fingers, which made them a little cold.

The two of them didn’t talk much. They basically asked and answered each other, and finally fell into silence.

Xie Yu washed the last apple and handed it to Ms. Gu.

“Bring this plate to your Uncle Zhong first,” Gu Xuelan said, “The company has been very busy these days. When I came back, I didn’t even eat a few bites and just stayed in the study.”

Zhong Jie was also in the study on the second floor. Xie Yu walked to the door of the study and heard the fierce quarrel inside – it was a bit muffled through the door panel, especially Zhong Guofei’s weak and angry voice.

“I hope you are well, and you, can you also hope that I am well?! Your Aunt Gu can live with me, I am very grateful to her.”

Then Zhong Jie said hoarsely: “What about my mother?! Where did she go? In this family now, who does she mean, and who do I mean?!”

I don’t know how this topic developed. It has been endless for three years.

Xie Yu felt that the two people were talking a bit noisily, so he lowered his head and inserted a small piece of apple with a toothpick, and put it in his mouth. It was a bit sour when he tasted it.

When Gu Xuelan heard the noise upstairs, she joined forces and went upstairs to break up the fight.

“Don’t go,” Xie Yu stood at the door of the study, holding a fruit plate in one hand and holding Gu Xuelan’s arm with the other, “Let them make noises, just make noises as much as you like.”

How could Gu Xuelan ignore it? She hurriedly opened the door and went in.

Another restless night.

Xie Yu stood under the shower, soaked to the skin, closing his eyes and trying his best to ignore the sounds outside.

He raised his hand to wipe his face, turned off the switch, opened the sliding door and walked out. The water droplets flowed down his hair, across his back, and finally pooled on the tiled floor, where a trace of color was played by the warm light.

Before throwing the changed clothes into the dirty clothes basket, Xie Yu habitually touched his pockets to see if there was anything he had forgotten. Then he touched the piece of paper folded into a square shape.

On it are the words He Chao staggering this way and that, his pen wishing to fly out, “It’s hard to find.”

Xie Yu stared at it for a long time and couldn’t recognize a single word.

He turned the piece of paper over and found a smiley face drawn on the back.The curved mouth looks a bit mean with an upward stroke.

Xie Yu looked at it and suddenly leaned against the edge of the pool and smiled.
