Chapter 6 (1/2)

“Fate had gripped his throat”

——

Honestly speaking, this scene in which the two opposing sides had their swords drawn and fla in their eyes, was an extremely serious type of scene

Huo Ran was extremely certain that before Kou Chen had opened his mouth, he'd already been prepared to suppress his dissatisfaction and leave or if they couldn't just leave then get down and fight it out

But at thischaracter', like when actors start laughing during a scene

He laughed out loud

And he'd even brought Xu ZhiFan into the act, who laughed even louder than he had

This really shouldn't have happened, because it'd caused the few third years to instantly beco for trouble aren't you?” the belle's expression was cold, but although it was Huo Ran and Xu ZhiFan that had laughed, she still had her eyes fixed on theat Kou Chen

Huo Ran couldn't help but observe the 4 boys, confir that all hadpeople by talking tough was ulti carried out by the belle, it really was rather hard to understand

Lady bosses in their school really didn't appear often

“Toilet's too far away,” Kou Chen says while he fu then leave, there are fees for this exhibition”

“Which class are you from?” finally there was a boy who spoke

Kou Chen slowly turns his head over, and just by looking at his side profile Huo Ran could see that his face was full of “is your skin itching you're actually asking Laozi2 老子 (lǎozi) is sort of an arrogant way to refer to hi hi like ‘oresama' in jpn which class I'm from”

“Next time before you threaten someone you should ask around first,” Kou Chen says in an unhurried ht a hundred battles with no danger of defeat3 this whole line is an idio is quite literal ”

The few students didn't say anything, exchanging a few looks, seely a little hesitant

“Year 2 Huhs, “Kou Chen, you can look foraround, if you're worried I could leave ives Kou Chen another look, then starts walking away after pulling on the arirl stumbles because of the pull

As the few of theirl that was being dragged another look, she was less nice looking than even the belle, her lowered head not having gotten raised even once

Huo Ran also heaved a sigh, he did know that soood as themselves in certain areas, just to make themselves look better

After the few of thelances at Kou Chen as still standing by the ith his head lowered and staring at his crotch, hesitating for 2 seconds: “You really peed?”

“Nah,” Kou Chen laughs, pulling his pants up as he turned, “I only ca to co over, so I followed”

“What about Xu Chuan?” Xu ZhiFan asks

“School infirmary,” Kou Chen says

“Mn? He's sick?” Huo Ran asks

“Sick my ass,” Kou Chen ‘tch'ed, “This semester an extremely pretty lady doctor4 he refers to her as ‘doctor jiejie (sister)' which is kind of a cute way of address; i'll be keeping this address for the rest of the text started working in the infirmary, the next few months he'll probably hurt everywhere in his body at least once through”

“…Oh,” Huo Ran was a little speechless

“Let's go out and eat?” Kou Chen glances at the time on his phone screen, “It's about time”

Huo Ran couldn't help but take his phone out to also look at the ti ain't even 4 o'clock yet, which country's tiry you have to eat5 he's eneral statement so the ‘you' here doesn't refer to huo ran ,” Kou Chen turns and sits on the stone plate in the ghost building's corner next to hi Lei and Hu Yi to co Jiang Lei and Hu Yi to hurry to school so they can go out to eat

Huo Ran looks at Kou Chen: “Those third years, what if they look for you in the classroos out, “Don't h schools like yours, that even this sort of person can becoht already, like there'd be a need to listen to a girl saying this and that…”

Huo Ran didn't say anything, so Kou Chen continued in a high-pitched voice: “Looking for trouble aren't you, get lost, if you don't tiny little fists will punch your chest”

“fuck,” Xu ZhiFan started laughing at the side

“Really,” Kou Chen waves his hand in disdain, “If they want to look foranytime, only scared they6 he uses a term 丫 to refer to those people that would have a sort of de Lei was usually inefficient when co to school, but as soon as he'd heard that there'd be food, even if it was fro

But it seemed that Wei ChaoRen's house was indeed far, they'd all been huddled in the school infir” Xu Chuan for an hour, before Wei ChaoRen finally arrived

As soon as he'd entered the infiro eat, it's about enough already, keep up the act and it'll become a terminal illness”

“Get your aunt lost,” Xu Chuan had been hugging a hot water bagal squeezed, “Does your skull contain a date seed!”

School doctor Jiejie started laughing: “Go eat first, I'll also tidy up and get ready to knock off work”

The few of them instantly sort of lost face, because even if Jiejie had seen through the, they could still be thick-skinned and stay, but now that they'd suddenly been stripped bare by Wei ChaoRen… Huo Ran started off outside i into the door fra behind held onto hihed

Their mood quickly recovered however, after all it was now autu that the restaurant they were going to was a pretty great buffet place

Although Huo Ran still harboured soainst the trio, but when the taxi they'd called arrived, like the rest of them he'd still, very happily climbed into the car

Too happily, to the point where it was only after the car had beenfor about half a day that he realised that the one sitting beside hi in this car?” Huo Ran was stunned

Xu ZhiFan was in the shotgun seat, and it was just hi Lei,” Kou Chen says, “I was thinking of getting in the car in front, but didn't otten pulled into the car by Jiang Lei, Huo Ran was a little speechless, Jiang Lei whose sense of taste was the type to find even MSG soup delicious, what right did he have to rush at the front at the mention of food!

“Actually if it's just to eat there's no need to go to such an expensive place,” Xu ZhiFan says fro expenses will be gone”

“We7 he's referring to him + xc + wcr can all eat quite a lot, we can make the buffet cost worth,” Kou Chen says, “Also I took my sister's e that he turned to look at Huo Ran, “As in ood at bearing grudges,” Huo Ran alet why Kou Chen had co s scared of ghosts is also childish…”

Huo Ran turns to look at him

“So your sister works there?” Xu ZhiFan interrupts their exchange just in time

“Mn,” Kou Chen nods, “But she does ad out of the

He's finally realised, that Kou Chen is the overly familiar8 used ‘overly fa hes the type that one-sidedly acts like hes close to sos to chat about with anyone, jokes along with boasts, if Xu ZhiFan weren't there, he'd probably also be able to do so with the driver

Incredibly annoying

Noisy

Xu ZhiFan this traitor!

Huo Ran furrows his brows and presses onto his index finger, the finger joint cracking with a sound

Before he'd pressed the next finger, a ka also sounded frolance, crazy?

Maintaining eye contact with Kou Chen, he presses down on his er, ka

Kou Chen also presses down on his er, ka

“That restaurant…” Xu ZhiFan turns his head, “That…”

Huo Ran presses his ring finger, ka

Kou Chen also presses his ring finger, ka

Thurades up from pre-school didn't you!” Xu ZhiFan turns to sit properly, too lazy to bother with theh it was coless, he couldn't lose

Huo Ran was counting, after cracking the last pinky, ka, the 19th sound

But the 20th sound did not happen

Kou Chen had fired an elee, raising his hand up, spreading his fingers out in front of Kou Chen's face, working them slowly

Kou Chen looks at hiain
