Vicious Male Counterpart Isn’t Competing Anymore

Before he died, Yan Hao could never understand why his parents had always favored his younger brother. They spoiled his brother, and wouldn’t pay any attention to himself, no matter what he did.<...

Chapter 74 Enlightenment

Yan Hao was determined not to go back to study pharmacy, but others didn't think so. The next morning, Yan Hao and He Shao were preparing to go to class. As soon as they left the dormitory building, they met Yan Fei who was waiting at the door.

Yan Fei seemed to have been waiting for a while, holding a bag of breakfast in his hand. When he saw Yan Hao coming out, he greeted him with a smile, calling him "brother" in a very affectionate manner.

"Brother, you haven't had breakfast yet, right? I bought this for you, it's still hot."

Yan Hao dodged sideways, keeping a distance of more than three steps from Yan Fei, and asked cautiously: "What are you doing here?"

"I called you but you didn't answer, so I came here directly." Yan Fei's voice was weak and there was no complaint, but everyone who heard it could feel the grievance in it.

This was the time when students were getting up to go to school. People coming and going couldn't help but take a look at them curiously. Compared to Yan Fei's pitiful expression, Yan Hao's expression was much uglier. His face was full of undisguised disgust and a hint of anger. As more and more people looked at him, Yan Hao's expression became uglier and uglier. With such a polarized expression, people who didn't know the situation would think that Yan Hao was bullying Yan Fei.

Good guy, with such a high level, with Yan Hao's emotional intelligence, a hundred of them are not Yan Fei's opponent. It was just three sentences, Yan Fei said two sentences, and Yan Hao only said one sentence, and the situation of the overbearing brother bullying the kind brother was already grasped. It was fortunate that it was in the dormitory of their mecha manufacturing department. If it was in the School of Pharmacy, where Yan Fei had many acquaintances, Yan Hao would have been wrongly accused to death.

Oh my god, this green tea guy, is this how he played his Yan Hao before?

"I was wondering if your brain was eaten by the Zerg. Didn't Yan Hao say that yesterday? He blocked you. Do you know what blocking means? It means he doesn't want you to contact him again. You forgot what happened yesterday. Your brain is so disabled. How did you get into the Federal University?" Yan Hao can only do math problems and not quarrel. He Shao is just the opposite. He is good at quarreling. If math problems were as easy as quarreling, he would get first place in minutes.

"My classmate...this is a matter between us two brothers. I hope you won't interfere." Yan Fei requested weakly.

"Brothers, you think this unilaterally, right? If Yan Hao really regarded you as a brother, would he block you?" He Shao turned his head to look at Yan Hao and asked, "Hao, do you still regard him as a brother?"

Yan Hao shook his head decisively, as if he was afraid that Yan Fei couldn't see it. After shaking his head at He Shao, he repeated to Yan Fei: "Not appropriate."

"Brother, didn't Mom call you yesterday?" Yan Fei asked anxiously. He didn't believe that Yan Hao could remain indifferent when his mother was mentioned.

Yan Hao's expression really changed, and his angry eyes gradually turned cold: "Yan Fei, what do you want to do?"

Yan Fei was delighted, secretly thinking that it really worked, but on the surface he still looked like he was doing good for Yan Hao, and said earnestly: "Brother, Mom hopes that you will continue to study pharmacy."

"Did you tell her that?" Yan Hao sneered.

"Mom is worried about you. She thinks that after six years of studying pharmacy, it's a bit of a leap to suddenly switch to mecha manufacturing, and it's not suitable for you." Yan Fei said.

"So, it's mom who wants me to go back to study pharmacy, but you don't want me to go back to study?" Yan Hao asked.

"Of course I hope so too." Yan Fei's eyes flickered unnoticeably. "My brother and I used to go to class together. Our parents would often ask about our homework, and whenever they bought us something, they would buy double. Do you still remember the first time we tried to mix basic potions, our parents drove us to buy us potion supplies..."

Yan Hao snorted and suddenly laughed.

"Brother?" Yan Fei paused, looking at Yan Hao in surprise and suspicion. He was unsure of Yan Hao's reaction at this moment. This was not the reaction he expected from Yan Hao.

"Is this what I did before?" In the past, he always wanted to get his parents' attention, so he tried his best to perform well. When he found that he couldn't get his parents' attention even though he got the first place in the exam, he thought that his performance was probably not obvious enough. So he deliberately failed a grade, deliberately took the same class as Yan Fei, and deliberately studied the same major, thinking that his parents would notice that he was better than Yan Fei.

But people are biased. No matter what you do, no matter how well you do, people who don't like you will never like you. And how funny it must be in their eyes that you try hard to get their attention.

After trying his best to strive and show his performance, all he got was a portion of something his parents bought for Yan Fei. So no matter how many first places he got, no matter how much higher his score was than Yan Fei's, Yan Fei would not be discouraged, let alone sad. He would even show that he was strong, optimistic, and neither arrogant nor discouraged. In contrast, the self that he hoped others would see was set off as so utilitarian and disgusting.

Why did Yan Fei do this? Because he was looking down on himself mentally.

Why did I behave like that in the first place?

Looking back at his past self now, Yan Hao still couldn't figure out why he got caught up in it and even spent so many years on it.

"Brother? Mom and Dad want you to continue studying pharmacy. You will transfer back to the School of Pharmacy, right?" Yan Fei asked. "I have already taken Professor Sun Liang as my teacher. He is an eighth-level pharmacist. If you decide to come back, I can ask him to accept you as his apprentice."

"He's just an eighth-level pharmacist. Only you care about him." He Shao couldn't help rolling his eyes. How could an eighth-level pharmacist compare with a tenth-level mecha maker? Moreover, Yan Hao had two masters of his level at once.

Besides, isn't it Sun Liang? He knows this guy. He was the one who published the formula for the sixth-level tranquilizer on the Internet. He couldn't figure out what he had been studying for several years, so he had to publish it on the Internet. In the end, it was Yan Hao who finally figured it out. From this point of view, even if Yan Hao continued to study pharmacy, Sun Liang was not qualified to be Yan Hao's teacher.

"My friend, I know you are my brother's friend, but as a friend, shouldn't you be more concerned about my brother's future?" Yan Fei looked at He Shao and said righteously, "My brother has studied pharmacy for six years, and he was the top scorer in the college entrance examination on our Z star. If he continues to study pharmacy with such grades, he will most likely become a pharmacy master in the future. But if he studies mecha manufacturing out of spite, it will not only waste my brother's talent for pharmacy, but also ruin his future life."

"I am saying, you are a younger brother who cares a lot about your brother. Before you said this, didn't you go to the Mecha Manufacturing Department to inquire about your brother's grades?" He Shao sneered.

"..." Yan Fei paused. He knew Yan Hao had a strong learning ability, but this was a federal university, and there were academic masters everywhere. Although Yan Hao was very capable, he had no basic knowledge at all and directly entered the mecha manufacturing department. It was impossible for him to have better academic performance than others. Yan Fei thought so, but he didn't dare to say too much, so he just said, "I know my brother is very smart, but no matter how strong the mecha manufacturing is, can it be stronger than potions?"

"..." This time it was He Shao's turn to be speechless. He really didn't know whether Yan Hao's mecha was stronger or his potion was stronger.

After all, a freshman can barely make a level 6 energy block with great effort, but a freshman pharmacist cannot make a level 6 sedative no matter how hard he tries.

"I won't go back." Yan Hao pulled himself out of his memories, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Yan Fei changed again. His disdain and anger decreased, and his eyes became brighter, as if he had seen through the maze and found the way forward. "Yan Fei, I will never compete with you for the little love my parents give me again."

"Brother, how can you say that about yourself and your parents? They care about you. As long as you take the initiative to admit your mistakes..."

"I'm not angry, nor am I being sarcastic." Yan Hao said calmly, "I just don't need it anymore."

Yan Fei was stunned. Yan Hao had said this more than once before. At that time, Yan Hao was more angry. The more he said he didn't need it, the more he wanted it in his heart. But Yan Hao's tone and demeanor at this moment were so different from before. This difference made Yan Fei feel unreasonably frightened.

"So, I won't learn pharmacy, and I won't compete with you anymore. You don't need to ask my parents to call me anymore, because no matter what they say, I won't listen. By the way, tell them that they don't have to send me the money, I will find a way myself. After all, three million star coins are not enough for me to buy a mecha axle." After saying that, Yan Hao didn't wait for Yan Fei to answer, pulled He Shao, and walked out past Yan Fei.

"Oh, it's already this late. Hurry, run over there, we're going to be late." He Shao glanced at the time and ran quickly in shock.

Yan Hao followed closely behind, and the two of them ran quickly, and in a blink of an eye they ran a long distance away.

In the distance, He Shao's wailing for fear of being called out, as well as Yan Hao's occasional response, echoed and swirled, sounding so strange to Yan Fei's ears.

He turned around and looked at Yan Hao's back as he ran in the sun. He seemed to be able to see the cage in the name of love shattered with a "bang", and the figure that gradually emerged inside was glowing with vitality and shining in the sun.

Yan Fei's pupils contracted rapidly, and an ominous premonition emerged, as if something important was gradually going off track.

"Beep~~" At this time, Yan Fei's communication rang.

"Teacher?" Yan Fei answered.

"Yan Fei, where have you been? All the people from the Department of Mathematics have arrived and have been waiting for you for a long time, but you haven't come yet? This is your own research, can you please pay more attention to it?" Sun Liang roared across the communication.

"I'm sorry, teacher. I'll be there right away." Yan Fei hung up the phone and tightly clenched the breakfast he bought for Yan Hao.

He knew that the math department would come today, but he really didn't want to do these boring calculations. It has been a week since the prescription was improved, and the math department has no idea at all. During this week, the teacher's attitude towards him has gradually changed, from praising his wonderful ideas for the prescription at the beginning to being obviously hesitant now.

【Ideas that cannot be put into practice are just empty talk.】

Every time they met, the teacher would mention this, but how could his idea be just empty talk? ! Since the first day he came into contact with medicine, every time he thought about it, it was correct. It was just because those people in the mathematics department were too incompetent and couldn't figure it out that caused his prescription to be doubted by the teacher. If it was Yan Hao, he would only need one day, no, half a day to figure it out.

Just like before, my idea was immediately confirmed and the teacher no longer had any doubts.

It’s all because of Yan Hao that this crappy mecha department suddenly appeared.

With a "thump", Yan Fei threw the deformed breakfast in his hand into the trash can, shocking the passing students. Yan Fei ignored their gazes and turned away quickly.
