Chapter Twenty-Two: Are You Playing the Plot Here?
"Quiet!"
The teacher's arrival put an end to the students' noise.
The teacher scanned the students and paused for a moment on Zhou Ran's face.
"Zhou Ran?"
"Um."
"Sit down and study hard."
The teacher confirmed that the person was correct and did not ask any further questions. After scanning everyone, the teacher asked...
"Xia Chengping, where's Li Shan? I haven't seen her."
"I don't know, I didn't see it."
Squad leader He Qi spoke up; he had arrived early and hadn't seen the two of them yet.
"Alright, let's start class. Everyone, open your Chinese textbooks to page 43. Today we'll be discussing..."
The teacher started lecturing, and Zhou Ran was able to listen attentively at first.
Since we're already here, ignoring this will only make us suffer.
But as Zhou Ran listened, her eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and finally closed heavily.
It's not that he doesn't like studying; it's that studying is simply not in his dominant genes.
It must be hidden deep within some recessive gene, waiting for a sudden gene mutation in a future generation to take effect.
Just as he was sleeping soundly, Zhou Ran was suddenly awakened by a loud bang.
My body reacted faster than my brain; the water glass on the table flew towards the sound.
"ah!"
Amidst the screams of women and gasps of surprise, Zhou Ran blinked and came to her senses.
He was in the classroom, not on the street.
Xia Chengping pulled Li Shan to dodge the flying cup.
He pretended to be calm on the surface, but inside he was in a panic; that cup had almost hit him on the head.
So what if he was late? It's such a small thing, why does he have to be stabbed to death on the spot?
"Zhou Ran!"
"arrive!"
Zhou Ran straightened up and faced the angry teacher. For once, she chickened out and gave an awkward smile.
It was definitely a typo; he didn't mean to do anything!
"All three of you, go stand at the door. You'll be standing and listening to this lesson."
The teacher treated all three students equally and kicked them out, as they couldn't be allowed to disrupt the class.
"Teacher, he hit me, can I leave too?"
Xia Chengping spoke out brazenly, challenging the teacher's authority.
"You think you're right for being late? Get out!"
"Alright, alright, I'll go out, okay?"
Seeing that his teacher was about to lose his temper, Xia Chengping quickly waved his hand, indicating that he would give in and leave.
Whether he learns it or not doesn't really matter.
Compared to him, who was a troublemaker, Li Shan and Zhou Ran were much more obedient. They lowered their heads and stood at the door as punishment.
The three stood in a row, in the following order: Li Shan, Xia Chengping, and Zhou Ran.
Li Shan stood ramrod straight, Xia Chengping leaned lazily against the wall, and Zhou Ran stood relaxed.
Xia Chengping looked Zhou Ran up and down.
"Wow, you look all dressed up now, you do look more like a human being than before!"
Zhou Ran has a crush on Xia Chenggan, but Xia Chengping, who is obsessed with his brother, wants to grind Zhou Ran to dust.
He bullied Zhou Ran a lot at school.
Of course, he doesn't need to do it himself; as long as he expresses his displeasure, many people will do it for him.
It could be said that half of Zhou Ran's troubles at school came from Xia Chengping.
The remaining half belonged to Li Shan, who was standing next to her.
Zhou Ran rolled her eyes, too lazy to bother with the child's jealousy.
Seeing his expression, Xia Chengping was so angry he wanted to hit him.
But Li Shan grabbed his sleeve.
A timid, childlike voice said, "I'm sorry, Xia Chengping, it's all my fault. I made you stand as punishment by the teacher."
Xia Chengping pulled his sleeves away and said angrily, "It's none of your business. I don't like to meddle in other people's business."
How could a grown man like him stand by and watch a girl from his own class be bullied by boys from other classes?
In such a situation, it's only natural to step forward and be a hero to save the damsel in distress.
"If I hadn't been careless, I wouldn't have hurt you..."
Li Na's eyes reddened as she spoke.
Xia Chengping couldn't stand tears, especially women's tears.
"Hey, don't cry! If others see you, they'll think I'm bullying you."
Li Na was on the verge of tears.
Zhou Ran rolled her eyes at her. Another innocent-looking person.
Is this bizarre world a lotus cultivation base?
One after another, each flower as white as snow, this action is fake, even his dog, Da Huang, could act more naturally.
Zhou Ran felt nauseous and stole a glance. The teacher was talking non-stop on the podium and didn't pay attention to them.
Zhou Ran decisively turned around and left to get some fresh air, planning to return before get out of class ended.
Xia Chengping was clumsily trying to coax people, racking his brains for his few words.
When he finally managed to calm the person down and turned around to continue settling scores with Zhou Ran, he found that the big person was gone.
Xia Chengping was amused and annoyed. "Where is he?"
Li Na silently shook her head. She had seen Zhou Ran leave earlier, but Xia Chengping was clearly angry, so she decided not to say anything.
"This toad is getting bolder and bolder. I don't believe you can escape."
Xia Chengping rolled up his sleeves and grabbed the man menacingly.
Li Na tried to grab his sleeve, but unfortunately, she failed this time. Xia Chengping was too fast, and she couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes.
Li Na stomped her feet angrily. That damned Zhou Ran ruined her plans.
She finally managed to pull off the hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress scene.
It was so that I could spend more time with Xia Chengping.
You can also get close to him and develop feelings for him.
Now Zhou Ran has ruined everything with just one cup of water. How can this person be so annoying?
Despite her complaints, Li Na didn't want to miss such a good opportunity.
She caught up with Xia Chengping, who had run far away, determined not to let this opportunity go to waste.
It would be best to add fuel to the fire when Xia Chengping is teaching Zhou Ran a lesson, so that the kid will suffer a bit and see if he still dares to approach him.
Where is Zhou Ran now?
He was on the playground; there wasn't much to see in this run-down school.
His initial intention was to go to the corner store to get some snacks.
Before we even got there, we saw some teachers loitering around.
It looks like they're catching students who skipped class. He didn't want to get into trouble, so he should change direction and find a quiet place to stay for a while.
He always felt there was noise in his ears, which was quite annoying.
There's absolutely no way I can attend school.
He eventually found a corner of the stands by the playground and lay down.
This location is on the edge, and the awning can block the sunlight.
There was a place to lie down, but because it was in a corner, you wouldn't notice someone was there unless you looked closely.
Zhou Ran stole half a day of leisure and lay here, taking a long, comfortable breath.
Just as Zhou Ran was drifting off to sleep and about to fall asleep again.
Suddenly, a commotion broke his peace.
Zhou Ran got up irritably, her eyes filled with murderous intent.
He was genuinely angry.
The angrier I've been since I came into this world.
People cannot be disturbed from sleeping repeatedly.
Seeing the noisy people, Zhou Ran paused for a moment, tilted her head, and looked puzzled.
"You think you're so arrogant, huh?"
"We've finally caught them!"
"Keep being arrogant!"
"You think you can run away!"
Three boys of varying heights and builds were shouting at one of the boys.
The boy who was surrounded held his chin high, looking at the people as if they were ants.
That long, slender neck and haughty demeanor made one's hands itch with desire, as if one wanted to reach out and pinch it off.
"You've got the wrong person!"
Xia Chengan said coldly, "I can tell from these words that Xia Chengping has caused trouble."
These people are blind; they mistook him for Xia Chengping and came looking for trouble.
This kind of thing happens all the time, and that's what makes twins so annoying.
Zhou Ran's murderous intent vanished completely, and she watched the scene with great interest.
He silently cheered on the three men, urging them to quickly start beating up the young master.
The first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was that kid's smug face.
If circumstances allowed, Zhou Ran would have loved to take better care of Xia Cheng'an's face.
Let you be arrogant and overbearing, I'll beat you until you're covered in bruises, and teach you a lesson for pretending.
Seeing others causing him trouble, Zhou Ran was overjoyed.
Of course, cases where the error is obvious can be ignored.
"Impossible, it's you, kid. I recognize your face."
Xia Cheng'an was too lazy to explain anymore; some people are brainless and wouldn't believe him no matter what he said.
He elegantly rolled up his sleeves, making sure each crease was roughly the same.
He took a pair of gloves out of his pocket and put on the black gloves.
Xia Chengan beckoned with his finger and slightly raised his chin.
"Since words won't work, I also know a little bit of martial arts. All of you come at me together, don't waste my time."
These arrogant words and provocative gazes infuriated the three people opposite them.
"How arrogant! Kid! I'll teach you a lesson!"
"Go, beat him up."
The three of them pounced on him angrily.
Zhou Ran silently cheered in her heart, thinking, "I'll beat him up and teach the young master a lesson."
A three-on-one advantage should have been a decisive victory, but the opposite happened.
Xia Cheng'an looks weak, but he's quite skilled; he's obviously learned martial arts.
Hey, you chubby kid, get out of the way, you're going to get kicked.
Idiot, you skinny guy, why don't you just charge up there!
Rushing in now would leave a souvenir on the young master's face.
Hey little guy, don't chicken out, you're about to run away.
Don't you know that fighting is all about momentum? You chickened out after just a few moves?
While feeling regretful, Zhou Ran offered herself some advice.
He wouldn't be foolish enough to join the fight; he'd rather just watch. Getting involved in kids' fights would only invite ridicule.
With a clean roundhouse kick, the chubby boy was sent flying again, unable to get up.
Xia Cheng'an withdrew his leg, brushed off the dirt, and slowly took off his gloves.
The main focus is on elegance, and the main focus is on style.
Zhou Ran curled her lip; this family is all the same.
"Want to come again?"
Xia Cheng'an looked down at the three people lying on the ground, unable to get up.
That look of disdain for ants reappeared.
Zhou Ran rolled her eyes.
Sure enough, those were the familiar lines.
"Get out!"
Zhou Ran knew this was the end, but it was a pity she didn't see Xia Cheng'an get beaten up, and she also saw him put on a big show.
What are you doing?
Xia Chengping, who arrived late, saw Xia Chengan standing there, seemingly in trouble, and rushed over.
"Where did you get the audacity to cause trouble for my brother?!"
Xia Chengping angrily added a kick to each of them.
This group not only extorted money from the school, but also dared to cause trouble.
"Oh dear! There are two of them!"
"twin!"
I saw two identical people standing together.
The people on the ground then realized why Xia Cheng'an spoke so strangely and said he didn't know them.
It turns out they really did mistake someone for someone else.
Li Na rushed over anxiously, and when she saw the person lying on the ground, she cursed under her breath that he was useless.
He originally wanted to rush over and hide behind Xia Chengping, pretending to be scared and seeking protection.
Who knew that there were two Xia Chengpings standing in front of them, looking exactly alike.
They had the same tall, slender figures, the same handsome faces, and the same impatient expressions.
Li Na was stunned for a moment. Which of them was Xia Chengping?!
