Chapter Thirty-One: Lifting the Siege

  Wang Weiwei nodded at Wang Haoran after taking a glance at him.

  Wang Haoran fell silent for a moment, then turned to the crowd and said, "Let's just forget about today's matter, let's go!" He usually dominated the school with his arrogance, but it wasn't because he relied on his uncle's position as deputy secretary of the municipal party committee to bully others.

  But no matter what he did, someone would help him get away with it, and he couldn't avoid getting a good scolding from his parents. He enjoyed seeing his parents get angry, which gave him a rebellious thrill, a vengeful pleasure against them for being so focused on seeking power and status that they didn't care about him, Wang Haoran.

  But if he insisted on going his own way today, he knew that things might not be so easy to settle.

  The people around Wang Hao Ran may have some realization, but they are used to being arrogant and can't help but utter a few harsh words before leaving with a huff.

  Wang Weiwei got up at this time and walked straight over, patting Su Can's shoulder, "Are you okay?"

  Xiao Wu stood up, pointing to their table, "Hey, masters, want to come and have a beer? Just had a fight to relax the muscles, didn't see that there's also a beauty accompanying you, last time you two weren't quite on the same road, were you?"

  He has always been straightforward and probably didn't have any consciousness or urbanity to distinguish himself from Su Can, so he joked with his own sister Lin Luoran without thinking much of it.

  Instead, Lin Huoran scolded him and hit his shoulder, which hurt a lot, causing him to grit his teeth.

  In the outermost circle, upon hearing these words, Chen Lingxuan's body slightly stiffened, silently gazing at Lin Luoran who sat serenely like a lotus flower. She quietly bit her lip and then looked at Su Can, whose clothes were disheveled but eyes were clear, and suddenly felt that some very important things in life had unknowingly slipped away from her.

  ```

  Xue Yi Yang licked his lips, seeing the beer, he was indeed very thirsty now, and seeing Lin Luoran, even more so.

  However, Su Can was extremely disappointed and responded to Wang Wei with a smile, "No need, thank you." This sentence was profound in meaning and clearly indicated that he had seen through Wang Wei's attempt to help him out, expressing his gratitude.

  Then he and Xue Yiyang walked down the slope and left.

  Wang Wei was taken aback, then shook his head and chuckled as he walked back to the beer stall. He thought of Wang Haoran's fear towards him, and Su Can looked at his own calm demeanor, feeling that this man made him more interested.

  Of course, if Su Can was studying at Municipal No. 1 Middle School, he would understand that they wouldn't be strangers for long.

  ========

  Wang Weiwei and his entourage handled the transfer procedures afterwards, then entered No. 1 Middle School to study. Lin Xuanwu and Lin Luoran also entered Municipal No. 1 Middle School. The three of them quietly enrolled in school, but were probably specially requested by their families, so they weren't in the same class. Wang Weiwei was in Class 3, Lin Xuanwu was in Class 4, and Lin Luoran transferred to Class 7.

  Three people can actually choose any middle school to attend, as the fourth generation of a prominent family, their families would rather they spend this period and youth in a large environment like school, hiding their sharpness, keeping calm and low-key, truly experiencing multiple eras of a big family, actually hoping that their children's path is wider, shining in academics or business, not simply being placed in the midst of changing politics.

  Politics can only take place in fixed locations, with the risk of falling off a cliff, but academia and commerce are sharp tools that can be wielded all over the world.

  Wang Wei's arrival at Municipal No. 1 Middle School was very calm, but for Wang Haoran and Zhang Xi, who were truly in the intricate web of relationships among the city's high society, their inner shock was self-evident.

  In class, Xue Yiyang lowered his voice and said to Su Can, "I saw Wang Weiwei and others, it's absolutely true. Even Lin Shuangyan, that girl, has transferred to our school. During the second class break, I even saw Zhang Xi and Wang Weiwei chatting in the garden while smoking!"

  Su Can was stunned for a moment, then continued to bury his head in copying notes. Xue Yiyang saw that there was no big response and also felt somewhat uninteresting, so he did his own thing.

  Su Can sorted out the overall situation, but he didn't know if it was because of his own changes that Wang Weiwei and her group arrived at Shi Yi Middle School, or if they would have appeared there anyway. Unfortunately, this couldn't be used as a reference for Xue Yiyang either, because in later generations, Xue Yiyang had never mentioned anything about Wang Weiwei's group to him, since the incident with the light disc room and all the subsequent developments hadn't occurred in later generations.

  So will Wang Weiwei and his party come to Municipal No. 1 Middle School, more or less because of their own influence, is this a kind of chain reaction caused by themselves?

  The butterfly effect is sometimes a chain reaction like this, from now on, Su Can doesn't know what will happen in the future, eleven years later, his life will be another kind of situation, fortunately, he still has time to change and adjust from now on.

  However, he understood that even if Wang Weiwei came to the city's No. 1 Middle School, or said that she had a liking for him, it didn't represent anything. Wang Weiwei had her own circle and world that was above ordinary people, and crossing from his world into hers wasn't something that could be solved with just a middle school encounter.

  The news of the fight between Wang Haoran's gang and them spread like wildfire, and even many sophomores knew about it. The heat of the matter was transmitted in an instant, and many people didn't know Su Can's name, but that didn't stop them from hearing about the fact that Wang Haoran and his gang had been seriously provoked. And the source of the provocation was just two or three unknown students from the first year of high school.

  Some people in the class looked at Su Can and Xue Yi Yang with sympathetic expressions. Originally, Su Can had a bad relationship with Yue Zi Jiang because of Tang Yu, which was like a time bomb on the verge of explosion. Who knew that Su Can would provoke Tiger Wei, openly confronting Wang Hao Ran, undoubtedly intensifying the outbreak of contradictions.

  Although they were all students, they couldn't come up with any vicious moves. However, everyone had a vengeful heart, and Wang Hao Ran's group hadn't been spared from rushing into the classroom to grab people or blocking the way outside the school gate after class. Nevertheless, at this moment when the whole class of High One Class Five was on edge, thinking that they would face another thrilling event where the other side would come knocking on their door, everything seemed as calm as this autumn day, and nothing had happened.

  In physical education class, Class 2 of High School Year 2, where Yue Zijiang was in, challenged Class 5 to a basketball match, with the obvious goal of attracting Tang Yu's attention.

  The first year of high school, Class 5's Maoshixiao still got most of the girls' screams. Li Lumei and Chen Lingshan stood in the crowd, cheering for Maoshixiao. During a brief interval, Li Lumei turned her head to look at an empty space not far away, where Su Can and Xue Yiyang were playing soccer, seemingly very far from the excitement here. Li Lumei couldn't help but pout, "What's wrong? Has that kid not been looking for you lately? Is Chen Lingshan's charm no longer effective?"

  This made Chen Lingshan make a gesture to hit her, and the two of them had a bit of fun, but they were slightly surprised at Li Luomei. If it were in the past, how could Li Luomei be like this now, making jokes about men and women with her? Moreover, from Li Luomei's recent perspective, she seemed to have become enthusiastic about the ambiguous relationship between Su Can and her. It's worth noting that if it were in the past, someone like Su Can who was beneath Chen Lingshan would almost never be mentioned by Li Luomei.
