Chapter Twenty is an illusion

  "Su Can!?" and Chen Lingshan's people in one place, are all girls from Class 5, and are also Chen Lingshan's staunch supporters. In the current stage of junior high school, they can be said to be sworn sisters, but there is also a subordinate relationship, and each circle will have a center.

  For people like Yue Zijiang and Wang Haoran, they are the center of their circle in Grade 2. Zhang Xi is the center of some freshmen, while Chen Lingshan, her striking appearance and countless boys secretly pursuing and liking her, also make her the center of her circle.

  Su Can is just a fleeting joke in this circle, and for the people around Chen Lingxuan and Li Luomei, Su Can is just one of the countless toads that are about to break their necks. Moreover, in Li Luomei's heart, there is a unique sense of possessiveness, she doesn't want any man to get close to Chen Lingxuan, as if Chen Lingxuan were to fall in love and divert her attention, Li Luomei would inexplicably feel a twinge of jealousy.

  So she has been taking on the role of Chen Lingshan's guardian all along, which also makes her a thorn in the side of many boys who are interested in Chen Lingshan.

  Why am I maintaining this relationship with Chen Lingshan? Sometimes Li Luomei would occasionally think about it, and she felt that maybe it was because she worried that a girl like Chen Lingshan, if pursued by those ordinary boys with ulterior motives, would be a kind of humiliation that her values could not tolerate.

  However, when she saw Su Can, a toad, walking side by side with Tang Yu, who was almost as pure as a snow lotus, on the campus road at sunset, her values were like glass that suddenly cracked in the cold winter.

  "Isn't that the person Yue Zijiang has been chasing recently? Who is that kid?" The people from the football team standing beside Xue Yiyang were discussing heatedly.

  Wow! One of them had a distinctive haircut, clearly Wang Haoran, and some of the people from the Yuezi Jiang faction were about to rush up, but they were stopped by Gao Tian, the captain of the football team. Gao Tian was tall and sturdy, and with one hand, he pressed down on the chest of this slightly hyperthyroid Wang Haoran's sidekick, preventing him from advancing any further and avoiding an imminent conflict.

  Xue Yi Yang glanced at Gao Tian with a hint of gratitude, thinking that the conflict in the football team might be avoided. However, Su Can was too blatant, and he walked out with Tang Yu. Who knows what kind of mood Yue Zi Jiang and his group would have after waiting for so long at the door?

  Yue Zijiang's expression turned ugly, and his face darkened for a moment before quickly returning to normal. Someone beside him glanced over, "How is it, Zijiang? Do you need our help?" The glance was filled with malice.

  Seeing Tang Wei's gaze, Yue Zijiang, leaning against the motorcycle, waved his hand and walked forward alone. He waved at Tang Wei and said, "Just about to head home? Be careful on the road."

  Just looking at him, he has a lot of demeanor and courtesy, without any expression that would put him at a disadvantage. Su Can secretly sighed, if from various angles, Yue Zijiang, although currently only in high school, already has a lot of charm, and will definitely be an outstanding figure welcomed in any field in the future. Unfortunately, even if he doesn't know his own future, as long as he understands his own development, he hopes to stretch out a hand within his power, to correct everyone's tragic trajectory.

  Yue Zijiang's eyes spun and finally landed on Su Can's face, carefully looking at this person who was a head shorter than him, stretched out his hand, "Hello, Class 22, Grade 3, Yue Zijiang."

  When Tang Yu saw Yue Zijiang and his group, she didn't think much of it, but was slightly worried about Su Can walking with her. From any angle, the seven or eight people on Yue Zijiang's side were all the type from the high school department who had a strong presence and would make ordinary students want to avoid them when they walked down the road. If they wanted to do something to Su Can because of her, Tang Yu was extremely opposed to it and didn't want Su Can to get into trouble for her sake.

  Maybe there's something else she doesn't want to happen, but can't grasp for the time being.

  "High school class 5. Su Can." Su Can stretched out his hand and shook hands with Yue Zijiang, the two exerted a bit of force, but in his heart, Su Can let out a low sigh, in any case, this grudge with Yue Zijiang was now settled.

  Yue Zijiang, who was shaking hands with Su Can, saw that Su Can's eyes were not tense at all, and his heart skipped a beat. On the one hand, he wanted to show Tang Wei his magnanimity, while on the other hand, he hoped to put pressure on Su Can. He knew that the seven people behind him were all famous figures in their second year of high school, and they should be able to exert great pressure on Su Can, who was alone. Moreover, from time to time, someone behind him would say a few words, "Who is this kid? Is he Zijiang's rival? Should we give him a lesson?" Fortunately, Wang Haoran was not there today... otherwise...

  "So we're acquainted now!" After shaking hands with Su Can, Yue Zijiang's surprise flashed and disappeared. He turned around and walked back to the crowd, laughing at the masses, "Disperse, are you still waiting for a show?"

  Xue Yi Yang's fists were clenched from afar, and when he saw that the inevitable conflict had not occurred after all, his heart inexplicably let out a sigh of relief. However, as he watched Su Can and Tang Yu walk down the school slope, he even forgot to call out to Su Can.

  All I heard was the basketball player next to me, who was very close to Wang Haoran's circle in high school, snickering and saying, "The kid is quite bold, daring to challenge Yue Zi Jiang openly? This thing is going to be interesting!"

  Xue Yi Yang understood that these powerful people might not openly do anything to Su Can, just like in this circle of First Middle School, there were principles when it came to fighting. Unless a direct conflict was formed, violent incidents would be avoided as much as possible. However, having offended Wang Hao Ran's circle, Su Can's days would definitely become difficult. These people had many ways to deal with Su Can, and Xue Yi Yang felt like he had a heavy stone weighing on his heart.

  As they passed by the school gift shop, one of the girls in the class couldn't help but call out to Su Can, "Hey! Su Can!"

  The girl was a bit impatient, and the oppressive atmosphere had left her breathless. Now that Su Can ignored them all without even a glance, she finally couldn't help but speak up. As Tang Yu and Su Can's gazes turned to her simultaneously, she didn't know what to say next, so she hastily added, "Don't forget to hand in your homework tomorrow, I'll be checking yours specifically!" She used her authority as the group leader to cover it up.

  "Ah, okay." Su Can smiled slightly and nodded, also seeing Chen Lingshan among the group of people, as well as Li Luomei standing beside her with her mouth agape.

  Chen Lingshan didn't say anything, she just exchanged a glance with Tang Yu and smiled superficially.

  Only when the two of them had walked far away did the girls next to her suddenly make a sound, like parrots that had been startled, "Isn't that right, he can't catch up to Chen Lingxuan, so he's going to make a move on Tang Yu instead? Is that possible? With Tang Yu's taste, how could..." There was actually a hint of sourness in her tone.

  Just now, Su Can faced those high school sophomores who were part of Yue Zi Jiang's gang with a calm demeanor. Among them were some basketball team members who would allegedly occupy the court during class breaks and no ordinary person dared to compete with them for space. Compared to them, anyone would seem weaker by a fraction. And Su Can's air of not being arrogant or humble... was it an illusion?
