CHAPTER 7 : ADDICTED

“Can you lend it to me?” Zhang Yang held the book close to

him, and looked up to the girl.

“What.. The …?” Zhang Yang saw the girls face, his whole

body jumped in fierce like a spring, before the girl could react, his figure

had disappeared up in the stairs. “My book! My book…! d.a.m.n you perverted,

peeping maniac!”

Fleeing from the scene to the fifth floor, Zhang Yang could

feel his heart in his hand, beating violently, and with the sound of the girl

yelling from downstairs, he realized that he was still holding the math book.

Naturally, Zhang Yang did not dare to go below the stairs because he knew that

girl, she was his greatest enemy at school. Among the hundreds of photograph

that he had uploaded before, more than half of the pictures were of that girl,

and furthermore there were several pictures that revealed a lot.

Allegedly that girl had once ruthlessly said that, as long

as she gets the hold of Zhang Yang, she would torture him to death.

The girl was not from an ordinary background, her name was

Xiao Yirin, a well-known family name. She had no parents, she only had a

brother whom she could depend upon. Rumor had it that the brother has quite a relations.h.i.+p

with the underground forces of the C city. Zhang Yang wasn’t quite sure whether

it was true or not but at any rate the students and his surrounding circle

believes in it so he was quite concerned that the brother would come find him

in the school.

After climbing the fifth floor Zhang Yang quickly closed the

door, the dormitory was still very quiet, some of the roommates were still

sleeping inside plus the room had a sweet fragrant. He could hear the “bang”

“bang” sound of his heart beating while he lay down on his bed. It took him a

lot of time to recover from this panic attack. The girl’s brother was too much

of a pressure to him, his legend itself was more than enough to make people

tremble with fear. All those information concluded that Xiao Yirin’s brother was

a ruthless guy.

“d.a.m.n it! I will not take a step out of school, I don’t

still believe that you can come to school to kill…” After calming down for a

bit, his spirit came to life again, “A dead pig doesn’t fear scalding water”.

Zhang Yang thought of the math book, he was still holding it in his hands. The

book emitted a faint smell of ink, it was new, as he opened the t.i.tle page and

he could see Xiao’s signature and the purchase date,” Actually bought a new

book in August! Please take good care of her.” Looking at the book, all of a

sudden, the fear that Zhang Yang had was casted away and a strong urge to read

the book took all the troubles away from him.

In a matter of time, Zhang Yang was indulged in the

wonderful world of mathematics, needless to say, it was a very good book. The

entire field of Mathematics, its basic concepts along with the methods made a

profound as well as a clear explanation in the book. The time was elapsing

slowly, Zhang Yang could not help but pick up a pen and started to write and

draw, a number of iconic symbols, and occasionally writing his own ideas and

some several methods of mathematical operations on the blank pages. He’d

completely forgot about the owner of the book. The time was flowing in an

alarming rate, Zhang yang did not notice any of his roommate’s entry or exits.

He was completely drowned in this world of numbers, where, he was the master of

all, he was the general existence of G.o.d!

“Zhang Yang! Are you reading a novel? Common, eat

something!” One of his roommates entered with a lunchbox.

Astonis.h.i.+ngly, an extreme sense of fatigue and hunger hit

his heart, a sweet aroma overflowed from the lunchbox and pulled him out of the

addictive mathematical world at once. Zhang Yang felt like pa.s.sing out due to

weakness. “What time is it? I have not had any breakfast yet.” Zhang Yang

remembered that he’d actually forgotten to eat breakfast after he met Xiao

Yirin. “Breakfast?” his roommate looked surprised” Is this a time to have

breakfast? I’m already having dinner”. “” Ah. Dinner?” Zhang Yang jumped out of

the bed, picked up the lunchbox and rushed to the dining hall.
