  Im happy to let it go and not think about Zhou Yang still owing me a "kneel". As long as he doesnt bother me again, even if no one talks to each other and we all go our separate ways, Im happy to put the matter to rest. But I notice that Zhou Yang and Li Jie are getting closer, and they often whisper something to each other. Sometimes Zhou Yangs expression becomes very impatient, while Li Jie keeps shaking his head, sighing and frowning.

  I dont know what they are discussing, whether it has anything to do with me. Im not willing to think about these things, Id rather have a peaceful life like still water. I found that my status in the dormitory is slowly rising, one time I washed my feet and left the washbasin there without pouring out the water, a student took the initiative to pour it out for me. "On your way, on your way," he said with an awkward smile, then handed over a cigarette.

  Having class and eating with companions, sometimes two or three, sometimes four or five, but I still feel lonely, its really a strange thing.

  My relationship with Xia Xue has been getting better and better, perhaps due to Liu Zihongs encouragement, I love to get close to her whenever I have nothing to do. My classmates in the class are a bit afraid of me, and they dont dare say anything anymore. Especially Xia Xues deskmate, as long as its not the head teachers lesson, he would give up his seat to me obediently. For most of the day, Ive been hanging out with Xia Xue, and Im getting more and more fond of this cheerful and lovely girl.

  That day in English class, I hit Zou Yang with a flower pot. The incident eventually reached the ears of our head teacher. Even if the English teacher didnt report it, there were always students who couldnt keep their mouths shut and would snitch. The head teacher called me to her office and asked about what happened that day. I sincerely said: "Teacher Ge, nothings wrong, really nothings wrong. Zou Yang and I are both from Dongguan Town, we usually get along pretty well, that day we just had a small disagreement, now weve already made up."

  I believe Zou Yang wont tell the class teacher about being beaten either. Hes such a proud person and wouldnt solve things through teachers.

  The head teacher saw me say that, and didnt say anything else. Its normal for students to have conflicts, as the head teacher its his job to resolve them, now that the conflict has been resolved by the students themselves, he can finally relax. And so this matter came to an end.

  Xia Xue is a local student in the North Garden, and its often seen that students from other classes come to play with her, including boys and girls, some looking kind and others looking fierce. Her relationships are quite good. So I think, if at that time she helped me out, Zhou Yangs matter could be solved, but ultimately couldnt avoid the gossip of classmates in the class, at least the title of "eating soft rice" was already decided.

  Xia Xue is a very clever girl, who can write notes with me while listening to the lesson. She would say one sentence and I would respond with another, often adding cute expressions. We talked about everything from literature to the universe, it was like we could talk about anything. During my three years in junior high school, I was very lonely, so I read a lot of books, and in front of Xia Xue, I could still pretend to be knowledgeable. But she wasnt intimidated at all, no matter what I talked about, she could always keep up with me.

  Good girl, what a good girl. With both looks and talent, she can be called a peerless beauty.

  I started thinking about confessing. My biggest confusion is whether Xia Xue likes me or not. She is indeed open and enthusiastic to me, but also to other boys. We chat on notes during class, and she responds to the notes of other boys without fail. It seems that she treats everyone equally, and her smile towards me is no different from others. Admittedly, she was angry because I was bullied by Zou Yang and didnt fight back, but this cant be concluded as her liking me, its possible that shes just particularly kind and cant bear to see others being bullied.

  Because of this, I am very worried. Before there is a clear answer, I decided to put off the confession for now.

  About a week later, I felt something was wrong again.

  Zou Yang saw that I didnt turn around and leave, but instead, I made a proud face, raised my eyes to the sky, as if there was no one in front of me. This is contempt, disdain. But I dont care about him, as long as he doesnt bully me, its fine. Now thinking about it, its really sad that Im satisfied with my own "contentment", which is actually a dangerous signal!

  Classmates in the class gradually stopped paying attention to me, and several classmates who accompanied me to class and meals always made excuses to leave first. I felt puzzled in my heart, but didnt show it particularly. Anyway, these peoples words were meaningless, they were just a group of wall grass that would fall with the wind. As long as Xia Xue still spoke to me, as long as no one dared to bully me, it was fine.

  It wasnt until later that I found out Zou Yang had been secretly plotting behind my back.

  In the class of our head teacher, I left Xia Xues side and returned to my original seat. Liu Zihong whispered to me: "Be careful these days, Zou Yang and Li Jie have found someone to deal with you again!"

  My heart skipped a beat, and I asked: "Really?"

  Liu Zihong looked around cautiously, like an underground party member, and whispered: "Really. Zou Yang told our classmates in private that this time is doomed, and advised everyone not to get too close, otherwise they will be affected by the fish in the pond, and settle accounts with them afterwards!"

  Suddenly, I understand why Ive been quietly isolated these past few days again.

  "We have to inform that Liang Ge from that vocational school immediately..." Liu Zihongs face was full of worry.

  In this case, Liu Zihong can still pass on messages for me, and I have a few more good feelings towards this seemingly dull-looking bespectacled guy.

  "I cant talk anymore." Liu Zihong was somewhat flustered: "If Zhou Yang and the others see us, were done for, lets just calm down for now."

  As he said that, he moved the book over there, clearly drawing a line between us and putting on a serious face.

  I turned my head and looked at Zou Yang diagonally behind me.

  Zou Yang was also looking at me.

  He saw me turn around, and a hint of a smile immediately appeared at the corner of his mouth. He then made a gun shape with his hand and pointed it at me.

  "Pa!" said Zou Yang with his mouth shape.

  And I gave him the finger without hesitation.

  Although the overall feeling is much worse than his momentum, it also makes his face look ugly.

  He can never accept the feeling of being trampled on by me, so once I have a small act of resistance, it will trigger his greater anger.

  "What are you two doing!" The class teacher knocked on the desk with a look of dissatisfaction.

  The two of us quickly converged our behavior, and the classmates in the class turned their heads one after another.

  Apart from the class teacher, everyone knew another battle was coming.

  After class, I quickly went to find Ye Zhan and told him about the current situation.

  "Really?" Ye Zhan said incredulously: "Zou Yang and the others still dont plan to give up? How annoying! Ill go talk to Li Jie afterwards!"

  "Absolutely true." I calmly said without panic: "Its spread all over the class, Zhou Yang shouldnt be so arrogant if hes not confident." After thinking for a moment, I continued: "In short, pay attention to our class situation at all times, and rush over immediately if anything happens!"

  "Its okay, lets go." Ye Zhan said again: "Lets go and find Li Jie together to see what this guy is thinking."

  From the conversation above, it can be seen that Zou Yang and I have different focuses. I kept talking about Zou Yang, while he was always mentioning Li Jie. In my heart, Zou Yang is the biggest enemy, but in Ye Zhans heart, Zou Yang can only survive with Li Jie.

  The wind blew out.

  "What kind of wind is this that has blown such a great god over here?"

  "Come on, man." Ye Zhan punched Li Jie and said with a smile: "Whats going on? Arent you planning to calm down?"

  Theres no need to question that Ye Zhan and Li Jie are not on the same path, although they grew up together from a young age, but belong to different forces. So on the surface, their relationship is still okay, giving each other face, everyone has a way out. But after all, they are not brothers who can open their hearts to each other.

  "Whats going on with the suspension?" Li Jie looked bewildered.

  "I heard theyve found someone to deal with Wang Hao?" Ye Zhan still had a smile on his face, planning to quietly make the matter disappear.

  "Whats going on?" Li Jie immediately denied: "Where did you hear these messy things? Didnt we already settle it last time and go our separate ways, without bothering each other? Dont worry, I, Li Jie, keep my word!"

  "Uh-huh, I believe you." Ye Zhan smiled and handed Li Jie a cigarette.

  Li Jie returned to the classroom, Ye Zhan rushed over and winked at me: "How was it? I told you it was nothing."

  I nodded. Ye Zhan and Li Jie were both big shots in the first year of high school, if Li Jie cheated Ye Zhan on this matter, how could they still meet and talk in the future?

  "Dont listen to those people in our class who are talking nonsense, they just want to stir up trouble!" Ye Zhan dropped this sentence and left.

  Am I really just being paranoid?

  Li Jies expression just now was absolutely sincere. He didnt deceive Ye Zhan, and Ye Zhan wouldnt be so easily deceived by him either.

  Perhaps Zou Yang was just boasting to save face for what happened that day. In fact, he couldnt find anyone at all, the name "Meng Liang" had already scared them off, and Li Jie would never take risks personally.

  After figuring this out, I felt relieved. Back in the classroom, sitting back in my original seat, thinking left and right still feeling uneasy, I said to Liu Zihong: "If something unexpected happens to me, please help me inform Ye Zhan."

  Liu Zihong ignored me and continued reciting words loudly with his back turned on me.

  "Did you hear that?" I frowned, this guy is really scary.

  Then I vaguely heard three words in his string of unclear English: "I... un... derstand."

  "Hmph." I let out a wry smile. These guys are something else. Theyre afraid of Zhou Yang settling scores after the fact, but theyre not afraid of me turning against them afterwards?

  Because I was thinking about this issue, I didnt sit next to Xia Xue. In the next class, Xia Xue took the initiative to sit next to me.
