Once Ye Jiu had walked out of the alley and was no longer in sight, Su Qingyue looked down and met Feng Ming's gaze. He grinned and said, "Now I can deal with you."
Su Qingyue's tone was full of malice, unlike any other time before. Feng Ming knew clearly that he had kicked a hornet's nest.
The thug lying on the ground, howling in pain, struggled to his feet, pulled a folding knife from his pocket, ran towards Su Qingyue, gritted his teeth, and stabbed her forcefully, yelling, "Damn it, die!"
As the thug lunged at him, Su Qingyue dodged backward, grabbed his wrist, and with her fingers forming a claw, a "crack" was heard. The thug's wrist was either broken or dislocated. Throughout the entire ordeal, Su Qingyue did not move an inch.
The folding knife fell to the ground, and Su Qingyue picked it up. The simple folding knife danced gracefully in his hands.
“I was stabbed with one of these things when debt collectors kidnapped me and threatened me. The guy didn’t care about me; they were planning to kill me when they realized I couldn’t threaten him. The blade isn’t long, so it goes in quickly. It doesn’t hurt when it’s stabbed, but it hurts when it’s pulled out. He stabbed me twice, and then the police came…”
Su Qingyue walked to Feng Ming's side, squatted down and looked him in the eye. "From that moment on, I made up my mind that I would wield this knife better than they did."
Su Qingyue stood up and pressed her foot down on Feng Ming's wrist, the blade pointing downwards at his hand. "What will happen if I let go?"
"No, no... please, please." Feng Ming's pupils dilated, his eyes filled with panic. "We're in the same school, please spare me for the sake of us being classmates. I'll never do it again."
"Really? How about transferring schools tomorrow? Don't let me see you again? Hmm?" Su Qingyue's voice trailed off lightly, sounding like a lover's whisper at first glance. Only Feng Ming on the ground knew that he was a demon, and it was all an act, all an act.
"Okay, okay, I'll transfer schools, I'll transfer schools." Feng Ming nodded hurriedly.
Su Qingyue loosened his grip on the knife handle, and the knife was stuck straight between his five fingers, almost piercing his hand.
"Get lost."
Feng Ming shakily got up, stumbling and falling several times along the way as he tumbled and crawled out of the alley until Su Qingyue could no longer see him.
He turned around, and the thugs lying on the ground were gone. They had probably sneaked away while he was teaching Feng Ming a lesson. He didn't care about them.
Su Qingyue picked up her schoolbag from the ground, dusted it off, and walked towards the bus stop.
The timing was perfect; I could still catch the last bus.
——
A major event occurred at Mingde No. 1 High School: Xia Banmeng's number one simp, Feng Ming, actually transferred schools!! He had said he would be wherever Xia Banmeng was, yet he was willing to transfer!
I heard it was transferred overnight; the principal was woken up by a phone call in the middle of the night to help him with the transfer procedures.
The news spread like wildfire among the students, and everyone was gossiping about why he transferred schools. Ye Jiu asked her deskmate, the gossip expert Tian Tian, curiously, "You're so well-informed, you must know what's going on, right? Tell me quickly."
She sighed, “This time it’s all messed up. It’s so strange. I didn’t find out the exact reason why he transferred schools. I only know that he probably offended someone he shouldn’t have, and then he was afraid of being retaliated against, so he quickly transferred schools. Moreover, his little follower Le Yong and Wang Wu also transferred schools. Our school has lost three troublemakers. Today, the homeroom teacher of Class 3 is grinning from ear to ear. Tsk tsk.”
Tian Tian shook her head, "That's great, the long-running saga of Feng Ming's sycophantic journey has actually come to an end, what a pity."
Ye Jiu guessed it might be related to yesterday's fight, but all she did was give him the middle finger and curse a couple of times, and he transferred schools? Seriously? What a coward!
However, it's a good thing he transferred schools; such a menace shouldn't have stayed.
Ye Jiu no longer focused on that; her mind and eyes were filled with all sorts of ancient poems.

Feng Ming's transfer seems to have shocked some people, and things have been much calmer at the school recently.
Xia Banmeng and Zhao Linlin have been much more well-behaved and haven't caused any more trouble, but Ye Jiu always felt that they were brewing something big.
The first weekend has finally arrived amidst everyone's anticipation. Mingde No.1 High School's senior students still insist on having a two-day weekend, which is unique in the city. The good quality of its students gives it confidence.
Su Qingyue also arrived with the weekend.
Ye Jiu handed him a pair of disposable slippers, scratching her head sheepishly. "I usually live alone. My housekeeper usually comes to clean while I'm in class, and leaves after cooking. Occasionally my parents come, but they only stay for a few hours at most. We don't have many guests, so we always use disposable slippers, hehe."
While changing into slippers, Su Qingyue discreetly surveyed the house's decor. The house was mainly decorated in blue and white, with rounded edges on the furniture, giving it a cute and cuddly feel. Several cushions and plush toys were scattered on the sofa, and the arrangement of the cushions indicated that the owner often lounged on it.
Su Qingyue didn't know much about furniture, but he guessed that nothing in this house was cheap, creating a stark contrast with his own home. For a moment, a strong sense of inferiority almost overwhelmed him, but he quickly calmed himself down, changed his shoes, and walked to the desk on the balcony.
The balcony is large and has great natural light. You can see the entire Mingde No.1 Middle School through the glass window. It only takes 10 minutes to walk from here to Mingde No.1 Middle School. It's really... hard not to be envious.
Ye Jiu took her schoolbag out of the bedroom and hurriedly walked over, spreading her homework out on the desk. The desk on the balcony was large enough for two people to sit together comfortably.
"Auntie won't be here until eleven. In the meantime, it'll just be the two of us in the house, so you can teach me freely without feeling shy, hehe." Ye Jiu's lips curled up, her eyes sparkling, her gaze towards Su Qingyue filled with anticipation.
Su Qingyue's breath hitched, momentarily stunned by the smile. She quickly recovered and frowned, saying, "So you're all alone at home and you still let a man who's about to come to your house? Do you know how dangerous that is?"
Ye Jiu's smile froze as she instantly realized the problem. Her eyes darted around, avoiding his gaze. "I just trust you, you're definitely not that kind of person, right?"
"What if I were?" His words held a hint of anger he himself hadn't noticed. "What if I were that kind of disgusting person?"
“Then I can pin you to the ground and beat you up, Su Qingyue. I’m really good at Sanda (Chinese kickboxing).” Ye Jiu puffed out her cheeks, clearly unconvinced.
Su Qingyue relaxed upon recalling her skills, and softened his tone, "It's always good to be wary of others. Don't do that again."
Ye Jiu knew everything was alright as soon as she heard the change in his tone. She said excitedly, "There won't be anyone else. I have no interest in inviting anyone else to my house."
“…Okay.” Su Qingyue smiled.
After the chat, it was time to get down to business. Ye Jiu handed him a list of questions she couldn't answer this week, sitting anxiously in her chair as if waiting for a teacher to grade her homework.
