“Beauty, do you have a boyfriend?” While eating a bowl of curry rice, which cost ten dollars, with no image, Lin Jie laughed like a pig and asked Zhang Yingfei.
Zhang Yingfei frowned with impatience and contempt on her face. The reason why she had chosen Lin Jie was that he was physically fit and had companions around him. If something happened, he could stand up for her for a while. Also, he looked like he had a good temperament. She would not mind to treat him better if he had some outstanding performances so that he would be dead set on helping her with tough tasks.
Unexpectedly, guys were all the same. Although Lin Jie also looked like a greedy person, she needed his help to get rid of other guys. She did not answer Lin Jie directly but cleverly said, “I’ve yet to find someone I love.”
Lin Jie’s eyes lit up. “Oh? Does that mean you’re not seeing anyone? Then, I…”
Zhang Yingfei changed her mind immediately and said, “Yes!”
“It’s okay, you can change one if you have.” Lin Jie wiped his mouth, smiled, and said, “If you’re unwilling to change one, you can always get one more boyfriend, and I wouldn’t mind that. You may wanna consider this?”
Zhang Yingfei could not bear with him anymore. She gave a cold laugh and said with contempt, “You? Save it!”
“Well, it’s a pity.” Lin Jie had no choice but stood up, shook his head, and sighed while walking, and then he said loudly, “500 dollars a night? I can’t afford that! Forget it, let’s go back to training, brothers.”
How could Zheng Ziliang not know what his brother was thinking? He looked shocked as he walked towards the playground, and then he exclaimed, “500 dollars for just one night? F*ck! How could she not be embarrassed by asking for such a high price! I think she only worth a maximum of 200 dollars.”
Four boys left the canteen while speaking in a loud voice. Instantly, countless eyes looked at Zhang Yingfei weirdly. Could not tell whether they were teasing her, despising her or other emotions.
Zhang Yingfei’s face was burning. She had been spoiled since young, and all men would treat her with a smile even if she made trouble out of nothing. But did he just say that she was a prostitute who had asked for 500 dollars for a night? Her chest moved in an up and down motion, and her breath became heavier. Apparently, she was really pissed.
“Lin Jie, that girl has quite a number of admirers. You just offended many people by doing so.” Zhang Qiong was worried. However, he changed the topic and smiled. “But I also think 500 dollars is too expensive. I would grit my teeth and get a few nights with her if she gave me a 90% discount.”
Zheng Ziliang shrugged. “We fight those who dare to stir up trouble one by one. Don’t worry, you have me.”
However, Lin Jie was not worried about this at all. He waved his hand and said, “Let’s go and report now. Our drillmaster set a rule that the last 15 people to assemble will be punished to run 20 laps.”
The other three were shocked and rushed to the playground quickly.
The drillmaster was a more than 40-year-old middle-aged man, with a square face. He looked very serious and indifferent. Even if the girls made mistakes, he would punish them without bias as well.
As the sun revealed its fangs, the military training started!
After standing for three hours, the students were almost burnt. Then, they were trained in running, striding, Military Boxing, and so on. Their training lasted from 12 noon to 7 pm. Even Yan Li, the fittest among all three of them, was panting and short of breath. Not to mention Zhang Qiong and Zheng Ziliang, their bodies were weaker.
However, looking at Lin Jie, he was still very energetic at the end of the training and did not seem to have consumed much energy at all. Even the drillmaster was staring at the young man in surprise, and his eyes were full of admiration. It was a pleasure to see such a strong man after seeing too many thin students fainting to the ground after training.
At the end of the day’s military training, Yan Li, Zhang Qiong and Zheng Ziliang were all naked and lay in bed despite their stinking sweat. They waved their hands weakly and called Lin Jie out to buy takeout.
“Three lazy guys, today’s training is the least intense one. Didn’t you realize that only 2 people passed out today?” Lin Jie looked at his pig-like roommates, laughed, and went out to buy food. But he did not forget to remind them, “Tomorrow’s training is even more intense, hehehe…”
……
Outside the school, there was a bustling commercial street. Essential facilities such as KTVs, restaurants, cafes, and hotels were all built. The shops here were also catered to the needs of students. The street provided streamlined services, with places to eat, date, play, drink, and sleep.
Lin Jie stopped in front of a noodle restaurant and shouted, “4 bowls of large soup noddles, takeaway.”
“Okay!” The boss greeted him and began to prepare.
“Boss, give me 8 bowls of soup noodles.” At that moment, a few loud shouts came behind him. There were 8 bright-haired students with folded arms and a fierce face, respectively. Their leader was wearing a black vest, revealing the tattoos on both of his arms. He shrugged his muscles and continued, “Take it quickly and go.”
Lin Jie thought, ‘Cutting queue? Never mind, it’s better to save trouble.’
In college, the students were most afraid of getting in the wrong clique as cliques not only allowed them to make friends but also to make enemies. Hence, it was the best to not hang out with the gangs.
Also… it was very stupid to start a conflict with them over a few bowls of soup noodles. As Lin Jie was alone, he was not that irrational to yell at 8 people, “Didn’t you see that I came first? Do you think it’s right to cut my queue?”
The leader involuntarily smiled with contempt as he unexpectedly saw Lin Jie keep quiet and even gave up his position in the queue. He laughed weirdly. “Freshman? What’s your name?”
Lin Jie raised his eyebrows and said, “Lin Jie.”
“I’m Sun Kai.” This big fellow with the vest and tattoos nodded and said, “I’m here today to teach you a lesson: behave like a freshman! Zhang Yingfei is not someone that you can take a share of, understood?”
Lin Jie smiled. “Zhang Yingfei? Oh, I see. Seems like that woman has a large influence and could conveniently call out many cannon fodder.”
“Cannon fodder?” Sun Kai folded his palms, cracked his bones and sneered. “Did you just call me cannon fodder?”
“Aren’t you?” Lin Jie was not afraid at all. Speaking of fights, he was not afraid of a few gang members as he had The Refined Punches. Although there were also strong people in the school like the president of Sanda Club and the coach of the Elite Martial Club, they were the elites among the students and were physically fit. If 8 of such people fought against Lin Jie, he could only take a detour to avoid them.
But threatening him with only 8 gangsters was looking down on him!
Not to mention the fact that Lin Jie had no interest in Zhang Yingfei, even if he had, it was none of their business. Otherwise, he might even have to seek their permission to take a sh*t!
“Hey, hey, students…” The boss rushed up, separated two of them, and said to Sun Kai with a fawning smile, “Calm down, calm down, the freshman is thoughtless. Here are your soup noodles.”
Sun Kai raised his eyebrows with anger and yelled, “Get lost! Who would want to eat your rubbish noodles!”
The boss was stunned. He could only use a harder way if the soft way did not work. He took out his phone and yelled, “I’ll call the police if you continue to make trouble at my place!”
“It’s useless. Zhang Yingfei’s uncle is the Deputy Director-General.” Lin Jie waved his hands. “You’re just causing us more trouble if you call the police.”
“Yo, your research was pretty detailed.”
“We must teach you a lesson. How dare you to chase after our leader’s girl!”
The fierce-looking gangsters shouted.
They shushed as Sun Kai waved his hands to gain him some momentum. He said with a serious face, “Indeed, it’s not good to fight on the street. Why don’t we go to the Fight Centre?”
Lin Jie rolled his eyes. The so-called Fight Centre was actually a comprehensive entertainment center, it included events such as battle fighting, single-player ball games, game fights, and so on. It had been built to provide a fight venue for the students who had nothing better to do. With its gambling mechanism, Fight Centre was very popular among the gangsters.
With the personality of those people, they would probably force him to sign a bet to extort all his money at least!
“Let’s go.” Lin Jie strode towards the Fight Centre. Sun Kai and the others were shocked by his brisk.
“Boy, your noodles!” the boss yelled in a rush.
“Put it here first, I’ll get back in 30 minutes.” Lin Jie waved and walked away, forcing himself not to answer “it’s your noodles”. While Sun Kai and the other seven could only follow Lin Jie’s steps. They felt pretty bad as this situation seemed out of their control.
……
In Starbucks.
This coffee shop, which had been popular all over the world, was scattered with many student couples. They were enjoying their young but petty bourgeoisie date by ordering two cups of coffee at a painful price.
Level 3 was the high expense section. There were six tables in total, with each table separated from one another. Hence, the expense was much higher than other levels.
Zhang Yingfei tasted the coffee carefully and smiled. “Thank you for your help, senior. I provoked the trouble and was bullied by that gangster in front of so many classmates. It’s really…”
Sitting opposite of Zhang Yingfei was Zhou Xiao, who was wearing a black T-shirt that seemed very casual. He smiled and said, “It’s no big deal, I was just stopping by and did you a little favor. That freshman was too arrogant and had poor quality. It’s good to teach him a lesson, in case he did something foolish and damaged our school’s reputation in the future.”
Listening to this polite noises, a trace of impatience flashed across her eyes. In her visual field, she did not see the scene of the bully as she expected. However, she saw Lin Jie leading the other gangsters like a leader. She was shocked. “What’s going on?”
“Oh, I think they’re going to the Fight Centre.” Zhou Xiao indeed knew those people well. He smiled. “Fight Centre allows bet-fight. It’s a good choice to extort all of the freshman’s money. By the way, junior, are you free tonight? Would you like to see…”
Zhang Yingfei picked up her bag and smiled. “I haven’t been to Fight Centre before, and I couldn’t miss this. Thank you for your treat.”
Watching her pick up her bag and jog away, Zhou Xiao smiled, and a trace of lust flashed across his eye when her beautiful legs reflected a feeling of seduction under the lights. After a while, he was suddenly shocked. “Could those guys be stupid enough to compete with him in game fights?”
