  Regarding the flour plan, I have always insisted on a few ideas.

  First, we must make our move when there are the fewest people around Mai Zi. As one of the big shots in Cheng Nan, the people around him are notorious for being ruthless and merciless, such as Hong Li. In a one-on-one fight, Ye Zhan and I combined wouldn't be able to take down Hong Li. So we must make our move when Mai Zi's power is at its weakest.

  Second, it must be done in a crowded public place. Since we want to establish our prestige, we have to let more people see that it was us who took down the wheat. Otherwise, if the wheat is knocked over and no one knows who did it, isn't that a waste of effort?

  Third, when taking action, it must be unexpected. With Mai Zi's rallying power in the south of the city, as long as he is given enough time, he can immediately summon a large number of thugs to serve him. Therefore, this battle must be fought unexpectedly, so that before he has time to call for help, we will thoroughly eliminate him.

  Fourth, I must be the one to take down Mai Zi. The fact that Wang gave me a spring knife was not told to Ye Zhan and Liu Zihong. After all, this is a secret between Wang and me, a transaction that should not be known to outsiders. When I proposed this condition to Ye Zhan, they were puzzled and thought that the fastest way to deal with Mai Zi would be for everyone to rush up together. But I insisted on this condition and reassured them, saying that I had absolute confidence in taking down Mai Zi. Liu Zihong and the others naturally trusted me very much, and Ye Zhan and I had an unspoken understanding, although he was still worried about me but also respected my idea.

  I'm quite confident. I touched the spring knife in my pocket, who can still stand up after being stabbed?

  In summary, to implement the flour plan, several conditions must be met simultaneously: the wheat is in a bustling and extraordinary situation, with few brothers following it, and with low vigilance.

  So, the flour plan can only wait, waiting for the opportunity to come when all these conditions are met at the same time. So, it's not that I want to speed up and be able to speed up. Before this, we thirteen people were also making various preparations, in addition to repeatedly simulating hand-to-hand combat scenes, there was another more important thing, which was to exercise our bodies. In the brick house, seeing his tightly tense muscles, as well as doing sit-ups while hanging upside down from the beam, these scenes all shocked me greatly. It made me realize that fighting is of course most importantly about being ruthless, but also requires a strong physique.

  So, running laps in the playground in the morning and doing push-ups in the dormitory at night naturally became a must-do project every day.

  During this time, Xia Xue and I were still ignoring each other. Every time I looked at her, she would quickly avert her gaze, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, making a "hmm" sound, obviously waiting for me to take the initiative to coax her. However, for me, getting rid of Mai Zi was the top priority, so I temporarily put aside my feelings for Xia Xue.

  It was raining that evening, and I saw Xia Xue off after self-study (how melancholic it is to see her off like this), and I was about to head back to the dormitory. Just as I reached the classroom door, a boy blocked my way. He wasn't very tall, but he was quite sturdy. Seeing him made me feel somewhat uncomfortable all over, but in my heart, I still had some respect for him, so I greeted him: "Brick Brother, do you need something from me?"

  Brick head opened his mouth and smiled: "Wang Hao, good!" Still with a silly look on his face.

  "Uh-huh, okay, okay." I also smiled along with him, although I didn't know what I was smiling about.

  "I heard about what happened last time." Brickhead said happily: "Peach's stomach hurts, send her back to the dormitory, great!"

  Students coming and going looked at us, not everyone necessarily knew me, but everyone definitely knew Brick.

  "Cough!" I chuckled: "Isn't this what I should be doing? How's Taozi now, is she okay?"

  "It's all right." The brickhead still smiled: "Good brother-in-law, Peach didn't misjudge the person. But how come you haven't gone to find her in these few days?"

  I'm a bit busy these days, Xia Xue and I broke up, and I've been occupied with the flour plan, where do I have time to look for Taozi? But facing the brick wall, I said: "These days are busy with schoolwork, so I haven't had time, isn't this just preparing to go?"

  "Ah, ah, that's good." Brick said: "We've already paid our respects to the ancestors and are husband and wife now. We have to be together every day from now on."

  When the brick said this, I looked around nervously, afraid of being overheard by outsiders. "Okay, okay." I casually laughed: "I'll go out in a few days to rent a house and pick up Taozi, and we'll live our own little world together."

  "Zhuāng tóu" listened and fell silent for a while before saying: "Isn't this bad? If the school finds out..."

  "Nothing's wrong, we're already husband and wife, what business is it of the school?" I pushed Brickhead's shoulder: "Alright Brickhead, hurry back, I'll go find my sister now."

  After sending the brick away, I thought that since Peach had a stomachache last time, I hadn't gone to see her yet. Now that the brick mentioned it, my thoughts of missing her became even stronger. Originally, it was just comforting words for the brick, but it made me involuntarily walk towards Peach's classroom.

  As soon as he entered the classroom, he saw Táozi sitting properly in her seat reading a book, elegant and refined in demeanor, with beautiful posture that made one dare not harbor any impertinent thoughts. She was like a white lotus flower blooming proudly on the rippling green waves, every gesture and movement exuding the air of a young lady from a noble family. The two siblings were so poor they couldn't even afford tuition, and had to rely on hauling sandbags at the dock to make ends meet. Yet Táozi, who came from a poor family, possessed such elegance, proving true the ancient poem: "With poetry and books in one's belly, one's spirit naturally becomes refined."

  I walked towards Taozi with a smile, and found that every time I saw this girl, my fondness for her increased by a little bit. This was truly not a good omen. Taozi heard the footsteps, looked up at me, and there was a hint of surprise in her eyes, but she quickly returned to her icy demeanor, asking: "What are you here for?"

  "Take a look at my wife." I joked, sitting down beside Taozi. It's strange to say, but whenever I'm with Taozi, I can't help but joke around with her - the old me was taciturn and would never have been so talkative.

  Peach let out a snort and turned her face away, but I clearly saw her secretly smiling. "Hey, don't ignore me," I pulled on Peach's arm, "haven't explained yet, what was the reason for the stomachache last time?"

  Actually, I later asked my classmates around me and already understood what menstruation is. But it's strange to say that as long as I'm with Taozi, I seem to have become a shameless little rascal who dares to say anything.

  "Never mind." Taozi turned her face away, striking a pose that said "I'm absolutely not going to care about this again".

  I was having a boring time and didn't know what to do. At that moment, several girls came over, who were from Taozi's dormitory, and they all smiled at me. "Wang Hao, why haven't you come for several days?" "Wang Hao, our Taozi misses you." "Yes, yes, Taozi doesn't return to the dorm after evening self-study every day, she must stay for another half an hour before leaving."

  "Hey, stop talking nonsense." Taozi's face turned red as she scolded the people around her. But they didn't care and continued to joke and laugh, with someone even saying that one time when they were sleeping, they heard Taozi talking in her sleep, shouting "Wang Hao"'s name.

  "Oh dear, never mind." Taozi's face turned as red as a tomato and she immediately stood up to leave.

  Several girls quickly pulled her back, "Alright, alright, we won't disturb the young couple anymore, you two chat, we'll leave."

  After they all left, I smiled and said: "Really waiting for me every night?" Taozi hummed: "I was clearly reviewing my homework, where did I wait? Don't listen to their nonsense."

  "What's with shouting my name in your dreams?" I asked with a grin, looking at Taozi, feeling extremely pleased with myself.

  "I didn't know about this at all, I reckon it's something they made up." Taozi lowered her head, her face burning so hot that you could fry an egg on it.

  "I can't see it." I chuckled and said, "I guess we have a spiritual connection, even our dorm mates say that I call out your name in my sleep at night." This was just something I made up on the spot, after all, I love teasing Taozi.

  But Peach suddenly turned her face around, with a joyful expression: "Really?"

  There was a moment when I really wanted to tell the truth, to tell her that I was just joking, but looking at her so delighted expression, and thinking of her disappointed look after hearing the truth, I couldn't help but say: "Of course it's true!" And laughter covered up my guilt.

  "Coax me again!" Peach said so, but it's clear that she was really happy, I had to pretend to be silly and smile.

  "What about Xia Xue? Did you catch up with her last time?"

  "I didn't catch up." I shrugged and said helplessly: "The next day, she broke up with me."

  I thought Peach would be delighted to hear this sentence, but unexpectedly she was solemn and ashamed.

  "Sorry," said Momoko: "If it weren't for me, we also..."

  "It's nothing." I waved my hand. What a kind and good girl... Although Xiaoxue is also very kind and pure, she doesn't have the same grandeur as Taozi. I always unconsciously compare the two of them, and always come to the conclusion that Xiaoxue isn't as good as Taozi. But if the two girls were standing in front of me, I would still choose Xiaoxue without hesitation. Are men really so cheap?

  "I know I still like her." Peach suddenly spoke, startling me. I thought she would be able to read my mind and know what I was thinking. "If you can't let go, then go find her and make up with her. Girls are always easy to coax."

  "Uh-huh." I nodded in response: "Let's wait a few more days, let her calm down first." My tone dropped even lower: "It's just...unfair..."

  "It's okay." Tiantian smiled: "As long as it accompanies me, I'm very happy." As she said that, she moved her hand away. What I saw on the table was the black leather notebook filled with my analysis of Shakespeare's works.
