The storm is coming again
(Revised Chapters 21 and 22)
For some reason, Wei Shao stared until four in the morning before falling asleep. The next morning, he arrived at school with dark circles under his eyes.
The introductory class in the morning was fine, but when it came to the general education class in the afternoon, the teacher was talking in front of the class, and Wei Shaomao was sitting in the last row, so sleepy that he could hardly open his eyes.
In a trance, he seemed to hear someone calling his name.
He pried open his weary eyelids, looked up and looked around, and found that hundreds of pairs of eyes were looking at him.
The general education teacher dressed in casual clothes but looked like he was wearing formal attire. He smiled gracefully at Wei Shao from the podium. Wei Shao was startled and realized that he was not hallucinating because he dozed off.
The teacher is calling him.
College is not high school. Few teachers will take the initiative to deal with students who doze off in class. At most, they will give them a joking reminder. However, he was probably the only one who slept in class on the first day.
Wei Shao stood up and took off his mask, admitting his mistake awkwardly but sincerely: "I'm sorry, teacher, I..."
"Student," the teacher called him with a smile, "could you please turn around?"
Wei Shao was stunned for two seconds. Even though he didn't understand why, he still did as he was told.
"It's been years since I've seen so many pairs of bright eyes in class—" the teacher sighed in a pretentious manner, then changed the subject and teased the students in the audience, "My neck is about to break after two classes. If you want to look, just look openly."
Those who can teach at the Imperial Star University are not simple people. This teacher obviously is not the first time to do such a thing.
A few restrained laughs were heard in the classroom, and those gazes were no longer concealed, and they followed the crowd and fell directly on Wei Shao.
They had already learned from school forums, confession walls, alumni groups and other information gathering places that there was a handsome guy named Bi Xiong Chong among the freshmen of the Finance Department this year, and that he was just like the legendary character of Dean Ji - he was admitted through the unified examination.
Although he was wearing a mask and looked listless, there was no doubt that he was handsome.
Wei Shao, who had completely sobered up, said: "..."
Being a monkey was his destiny, he knew it.
The bell for the end of get out of class just rang. The general education teacher screwed the cup shut, raised his eyebrows and smiled at Wei Shao, then said to all the students:
"You must remember my kindness and never skip my classes in the future."
Everyone laughed good-naturedly again, and most of them did not rush to leave, but sat in their seats and secretly watched Wei Shao's movements.
If it were in the past, Wei Shao would have made a lot of new friends by now, but now he just couldn't muster up the courage to do so.
He finally gained a better understanding of the Zerg's concept of male and female gender.
Most of these classmates are different from him. They are of the opposite sex and are individuals who may have emotions towards him other than friendship.
——Even if their appearance and structure are no different from yours.
Wei Shao put on his mask again, slung his backpack over one shoulder, and hurried out. The originally relatively quiet classroom became noisy.
When he reached the front row, a foot stretched out as Wei Shao took a step.
The timing of the foot's appearance was quite malicious, and it was obviously intended to trip Wei Shao. Fortunately, Wei Shao had a good reaction ability and did not fall down. However, he still left a mark on the snow-white shoe when he dodged.
The boy who stretched out his leg had a bad look on his face and said provocatively: "Poor thing, don't you have eyes?"
The originally noisy classroom suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Wei Shao is not the only male insect in this class.
In the front row, there are three boys, and judging by their body shapes, they are all males.
The troublemaker seems to be the leader.
Wei Shao's exposed black eyes narrowed slightly because of these words, but only for a moment, he returned to his humble appearance and chose to give in: "Sorry."
The male insect was unwilling to give up: "If apologies are useful, what is the point of the Male Insect Protection Association?"
Wei Shao simply stood still: "Oh? Then what do you want to do?"
The male insect glanced disdainfully at Wei Shao's T-shirt and trousers, which were so ordinary that they couldn't be more ordinary, crossed his legs, and pointed the slightly dirty uppers of his shoes towards Wei Shao.
"Pay compensation. Or squat down and wipe it clean for me with your sleeve." He was sure that Wei Shao could not afford the compensation.
Wei Shao felt that what he wanted to say was to kneel down, but because they were still in school, he didn't want to go too far.
The students around held their breath. Some of them looked reluctant and wanted to step forward to say something, but were held back by their friends who looked at them admonishingly.
As female insects, they can't say anything even if they don't like it.
A bug came closer and whispered, "Student Wei Shao, can I help you pay for it?"
Wei Shao turned his head and saw that the person who spoke was a gentle female insect. She didn't even dare to look up at him when she came closer.
He smiled faintly: "How much is it?"
The female insect spoke very carefully and gently, as if she was afraid of hurting his self-esteem: "...That one is a limited edition, more than 20,000 Sartres."
Seeing this, Alan's face darkened and he cursed at the female insect.
Because the speed of speech was too fast and the voice was too soft, Wei Shao did not hear clearly, but he guessed that it must be something unpleasant, because the female insect who just answered him had red eyes, and looked ashamed, angry and aggrieved, and the female insects around her also frowned slightly.
Wei Shao clenched his finger joints, shook his head gently at the female insect, motioning him to leave first, then took a step forward and half-knelt down one step away from the male insect.
"Alan, do you really want to embarrass him like this..." Another male insect lowered his voice and asked in the ear of the troublemaker male insect, "Aren't you afraid of offending that person?"
The troublemaker male insect didn't take it seriously and sneered: "You believe that kind of unfounded rumor? Besides, even if it's true, so what? I have the Capet family behind me, so why should I be afraid of him!"
While Wei Shao took his hand out of his pocket, he went over the name "Alan" in his mind.
His family seemed to be in business, and they didn't have a high status, but they were somewhat related to the Capet family, to which President Felix belonged.
No wonder he's so tough.
A piece of black metal was stuck between Wei Shao's little finger and palm, and when no one was paying attention, it quietly approached the tip of Allen's shoe.
Allen was still feeling proud, but he saw Wei Shao suddenly stop.
The attention-seeking male insect suddenly raised his head and glanced at him.
Alan had a bad feeling.
With a click, he lowered his head, his eyes suddenly widened, and he saw a blazing fire spreading from his toes. He screamed and fell off the chair in fright, looking miserable.
Wei Shao stood up straight, looking down at him, and said in a gentle tone: "Shouldn't such expensive shoes have built-in heat insulation? Why are you so scared?"
Having said that, fire is what insects fear the most! ! The fear that is in our genes! !
The female insects watching nearby silently retreated a few meters and thought so.
The way they looked at Wei Shao also changed. At first, there was only admiration and yearning, but now there was a bit more admiration and shock.
A ruthless bug.
Alan's companion hurriedly unscrewed the lid of the cup and tried to pour water to put out the flame on the tip of his shoe. However, because the cup was insulated, the boiling hot water poured directly onto Alan's ankle.
Alan let out a scream even more terrible than before.
Wei Shao's original intention was just to scare Alan, so that there would be no more blind people causing trouble for him in the future. He had no intention of hurting this guy, but he did not expect Alan's companion to be so stupid.
He sighed softly and projected his terminal account onto Alan's desktop screen: "Send me the medical expenses when they come out, and then I'll transfer the market price of the shoes to you as well."
After saying that, he grabbed his bag which he had temporarily placed on the podium and prepared to leave.
Alan's angry shout came from behind: "Stop him! Bastard! Stop right there!"
There was another round of chaos and it was of course impossible for Wei Shao to stay still. He walked straight outside, but was blocked by a figure at the door.
The other person was slightly shorter than Wei Shao, with black curly hair hanging lazily on his forehead, but his eyes were slightly cold as he swept across Wei Shao's face inch by inch.
There was a sound of people sucking in their breaths of cold air all around.
"Good morning, Your Highness."
Amidst all the greetings, only Wei Shao remained silent.
Adrian couldn't see his mouth under the mask, but that didn't mean he was deaf. He looked at Wei Shao with a half-smile: "Long time no see, you are still so rude."
Wei Shao reciprocated: "Your Highness is the same - still so high-spirited."
Adrian heard the meaning in his pause, and a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes, but contrary to Wei Shao's expectation, he then looked at Alan, who was sitting in the chair with anger still lingering, with an even gloomier look.
He approached under Alan's panicked and excited gaze.
Allen was indignant and excited: "Fourth Prince? That's great... You know what? That damn Wei Shao actually burned my shoes with fire, you must——"
His words were easy to understand. He was related to the Capet family, and it was no secret that Adrian had a good relationship with Felix. He believed that Adrian would definitely help him teach Wei Shao a lesson.
However, whether out of stupidity or courage, he actually called Adrian "you" just like he treated all ordinary female insects.
An ambiguous smile appeared on Adrian's pale and thin face. Even a single-celled organism like Alan felt a chill down his spine because of his smile and realized that he had said the wrong thing.
Adrian's bony hands touched the top of Alan's head, then suddenly tightened, but his tone was still gentle: "What did you call me?"
Alan finally felt scared, and despite the pain of his hair being pulled, he quickly changed the subject: "Your Highness, I am being rude, you..."
"Alan Horn." Adrian called out his name softly, in a gentle tone that only the two of them could hear, "If I hear you using the Capet name to do evil in school again... I will make your entire family pay the price."
Alan's face turned frighteningly pale and he couldn't utter a word.
"Sir Wei Shao," Adrian straightened up and looked at Wei Shao with a smile again, "You are frightened."
Wei Shao was indeed shocked, but not because of what happened before, but because of Adrian's attitude.
Although he didn't hear what Adrian just said to Allen, judging from Allen's reaction, it was definitely not something nice.
Adrian's subsequent words and actions confirmed his guess.
Adrian turned his head slightly and looked back, his tone was very cold: "Sir Allen."
Alan raised his head suddenly like a frightened bird, then hurriedly stood up on his half-rotten shoes and gave Wei Shao an awkward salute.
"Sir, I'm sorry, I—"
"Okay," Adrian interrupted him coldly, looked at Wei Shao, and asked softly in a different tone, "Sir Wei Shao, are you willing to forgive him?"
Wei Shao couldn't figure out Adrian's intentions. He had already vented his anger, so he said, "It's not a big deal... Thank you, Your Highness."
Adrian's eyelashes moved, and he took a step forward, hooked his index finger around Wei Shao's collar, and chuckled, "Why are you being so polite to me... Your Excellency Wei Shao."
The uncanny sound of inhaling gasps was heard again all around.
Wei Shao took two steps back, distanced himself from this psychopath with abnormal behavior, and said cautiously and distantly: "Your Highness, if there is nothing else, I will go back first."
Adrian raised his lips: "Okay."
Wei Shao: “…”
He turned and left.
There was no other trouble along the way, except for... the explosion of friend requests.
His original intention was to leave the social media account to Allen so that he could pay the money to settle the matter, but things seemed to be developing in an uncontrollable direction.
There are dozens of applications on a page, and the number is increasing at a rate of two or three per minute.
Just as he was about to deal with them all, he received a message from Philo.
Philo: [Turn around. 】
The moment he saw these two words, the gloom in his heart seemed to be swept away by a gust of wind, and the corners of his mouth curled up without him even noticing.
Unfortunately, when he turned around, he did not see Philo himself, but saw a black family car.
Very low-key, so low-key that if he hadn't seen him in Philo's garage, he wouldn't have guessed that the person who sent him the message was in there.
The fastest civilian transportation from the military headquarters to Dixing University takes more than 20 minutes. Wei Shao felt that Fei Luo should not have come out for the classroom.
Just came to pick him up.
He stepped forward, opened the door and got in the passenger seat.
Philo turned his head to look at him, and twitched his nose: "Did you smoke?"
"No!" Wei Shao felt very wronged, "You must have heard it wrong--"
His voice hitched, and he remembered what he had done in the classroom, his eyes widened in amazement: "Are you born in the Year of the Dog? I just flicked my lighter."
And it was Alan who was on fire, could he smell it?
Philo nodded in approval, "It doesn't smell like cigarettes, right? Where's the lighter?"
Wei Shao had no idea where the pack of cigarettes he had bought had been thrown away by Fei Luo. Unexpectedly, even his lighter was not spared. He fumbled in his pocket for a while, took it out and handed it to Fei Luo.
After taking it, Philo did not put it away immediately, but dialed it with clumsy movements.
Wei Shao couldn't help laughing when he saw this: "That's not how it's done. Look at me."
He took the lighter back from Philo, turned it around in his hand a few times, and lit it beautifully.
Philo watched for a while and commented: "You are very good at this kind of fancy tricks."
"It's commonly known as pretentious tricks," Wei Shao asked with a smile, "Is that what you want to say?"
Philo also raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Wei Shao closed the lighter, stuffed it back into Fei Luo's hand, and said something nonsense: "Hey, how can I flirt with girls if I don't know how to light something... flirt with insects."
Philo put the lighter into his pocket, started the car, and smiled even more: "Oh? Did you succeed?"
Wei Shao looked away as if nothing had happened: "...Of course it succeeded."
"Really? You took the bait so easily. Isn't that a bit too pathetic?" Philo sighed softly.
Wei Shao felt that his dignity as a man was challenged: "What do you mean by this? It works especially well, okay? She loves me to death."
This time, Fei Luo didn't laugh at him. He asked seriously, "Didn't you say last time that you had never been in love?"
Wei Shao: “…”
Forgot about it.
He gritted his teeth and continued to talk nonsense: "Because I'm a scumbag, the kind who only flirts but doesn't talk about anything."
"So bad," Philo seemed very disappointed with him, "I wonder who is so unlucky that you have taken a fancy to him."
Wei Shao said depressedly: "It's not you anyway, worry about it for nothing."
“…”
The car braked suddenly and Wei Shao was almost squeezed to death by the seat belt.
He recovered and looked at Philo, who was holding the steering wheel, in shock. The other party explained calmly, "There is a car ahead."
Wei Shao: “…”
He turned his head to look at the little Beetle car in front of him that had been driving at a constant speed and had done nothing wrong, and thought to himself, you are the bad one.
