Chapter 443: Chapter 307: Surpassing the Limit!
Class 5’s Meng Ziyun had a pleasant appearance, and Guo Kunnan was quite smitten.
As a result, when Wang Longlong recounted Meng Ziyun’s past, Guo Kunnan couldn’t help but feel wistful:
"Guys can’t usually handle this kind of girl."
During her elementary school days, Meng Ziyun often bullied her classmates, and now that high school had come, it seemed that old habits die hard; Guo Kunnan backed off.
Besides, he already had Xu Yan. In terms of looks, Xu Yan was no less attractive than Meng Ziyun, and Xu Yan’s past was obviously much cleaner.
Guo Kunnan thought to himself: ’It’s better to have a clean and innocent girl.’
Hearing Guo Kunnan’s words, Wang Longlong was indifferent:
"What’s there to not handle? Most of the guys in our class could easily subdue her."
To the people from Class 8, Meng Ziyun really wasn’t a big deal.
The two chatted briefly and continued picking up trash; Meng Ziyun and her group were also cleaning up.
During that time, Meng Ziyun glanced over in their direction and happened to look at Wang Longlong.
Once Wang Longlong noticed, he glared back with an expression as fierce as thunder, until Meng Ziyun voluntarily shifted her gaze away.
A few seconds later, Wang Longlong withdrew his gaze, but his heart grew increasingly uneasy.
Previously, he told Guo Kunnan that Meng Ziyun had slapped someone several times.
Indeed, she had hit someone with several slaps.
In sixth grade of elementary school, Wang Longlong was still a chubby kid. Back then, to prevent students from whispering to each other, teachers often arranged for boys and girls to share desks.
Hoping to sit with your buddies was a pipe dream.
Wang Longlong’s deskmate was a well-behaved little girl.
Unlike other discordant pairings, Wang Longlong and the little girl would often chat, go to the school store to buy snacks together, she would let him copy her math homework, and he would help her write essays.
This friendship should have continued, until one day when class was in session without the teacher.
Meng Ziyun had a dispute with Wang Longlong’s deskmate; at the time, Meng Ziyun was particularly formidable in school, rumored to have the backing of some older middle school brothers.
And Meng Ziyun herself developed early; she was the tallest girl in her class.
At that time, Wang Longlong sat on the outside and his female deskmate inside.
Meng Ziyun came over, fuming, and ordered Wang Longlong to move aside.
Still a child, Wang Longlong was scared of Meng Ziyun’s ’influence’ and terrified of being beaten, so he meekly complied.
After she went in, Meng Ziyun first scolded his deskmate and then slapped her several times.
Wang Longlong stood beside, watching with his eyes wide open, too afraid to intervene.
He feared retaliation from Meng Ziyun’s ’middle school brothers.’
That day, the deskmate cried terribly.
Wang Longlong was a spineless boy.
Out of fear, he distanced himself from his deskmate, and by the time they switched seats again, they completely lost touch.
Later, after entering middle school, Wang Longlong gradually understood life better and when he thought back to that scene, he wished he could slap himself several times.
If he had another chance, he would definitely stand up, bravely scold Meng Ziyun, and protect his female deskmate, even if it meant taking a severe beating.
Unfortunately, there are no ’ifs’ in life.
The wrongs committed were almost impossible to amend.
And now, to seek revenge?
He had thought about it; if he teamed up with Brother Ma, he could definitely set up Meng Ziyun.
But sadly, it hardly mattered anymore.
Wang Longlong clenched the plastic bottle in his hand, making a "crunch" sound.
Guo Kunnan urged: "Longlong, hurry up, let’s go upstairs and throw water."
On the other side.
A tall, skinny boy noticed Meng Ziyun’s gaze and asked:
"Do you know them?"
Meng Ziyun used to bask in her elementary school glory with many followers; someone like Wang Longlong, a mere passerby, was long forgotten.
"I don’t know them, looking at me for no reason."
The tall and thin boy was Cao Kun from Class 5. Scanning the two classmates on the side, one with a slightly darker face and the other a bit chubby, he felt they were no match for his looks.
Cao Kun didn’t consider them potential rivals; they weren’t even on his level.
Cao Kun complimented: "It’s normal for them to look at you; after all, you are pretty."
"I often get looks from girls when I walk down the street," Cao Kun said nonchalantly, boasting.
Meng Ziyun agreed with him; she had indeed encountered such gazes:
"No problem, let them look."
"They seem to be from Class 8," Cao Kun said with a smile, "Class 8 is quite interesting."
When it came to Class 8, what struck Cao Kun the most was that their school’s rank one and two were both from Class 8.
Meng Ziyun said: "If my grades aren’t good enough for the experimental class in the second year of high school, I plan to go to Class 8."
Her Class 5 had been at the bottom of the grade for years, and when it came time to divide into arts and sciences, it might just dissolve on the spot.
In recent years, the school’s atmosphere had improved, and from the second year of junior high, Meng Ziyun had turned over a new leaf, reformed, with her goal set on studying hard.
Cao Kun said: "Sure, let’s go together. It would be nice to have company in Class 8."
...
At the sink.
Dan Kaiquan held two buckets brimming with tap water, standing proudly with scorn in his eyes:
"Just you?"
Shi Qianjin carried only one bucket of water, feeling dwarfed by Dan Kaiquan’s demeanor.
Class 9 and Class 8 had a feud, the first of which stemmed from Class 8 having many attractive female students, making Class 9 think that the boys in Class 8 were all trash and unworthy of those pretty classmates, always trying to steal them away.
The second grudge originated from a gym class when Class 9 competed against Class 8 in a ladder drill, where they were utterly outmatched by Jiang Ning, which was a blow to their pride.
Shen Xinli stood out, only to end up receiving artificial respiration from Pang Jiao.
Class 9 suffered both physical and mental blows, and took some time off.
But such grudges, usually hidden, would always erupt at some moments, like now.
Shi Qianjin blustered: "You just wait!"
Dan Kaiquan, looking down from his height, caught a glimpse of Shi Qianjin who was several centimeters shorter than him, and with his recent daily workouts, he confidently believed he could suppress two Shi Qianjins.
