Chapter 19 Chapter 19 Does he have a split personality?
After the sports meet comes the National Day holiday. The whole school is excited about this holiday after the fun, and Ji Maili is also looking forward to it.
Last year, he spent all the holidays, both summer and winter, by himself. But this year is different. With Chen Lu, he is happy even if he is dragged by him to do homework during the holidays.
Zhou Luyang ran into the classroom like crazy and sat down on a stool, bumping into Ji Maili's desk with a bang. "Big news!"
Ji Maili was lying on the table, his arm numb from the collision. He raised his head and said, "You'd better have some big news, or you're dead."
Zhou Luyang was obsessed with gossip, and was so excited that he didn't care about life or death. "It's really big news. Senior year student Zhou Bingcheng got beaten up. I heard it happened outside of school. It was a terrible beating."
Was Zhou Bingcheng beaten up?
This wasn't exactly news, but Ji Maili was quite interested. "Really?"
Zhou Luyang: "The news is absolutely true."
Ji Maili was curious about what happened to that idiot: "Who beat him up?"
"Ah?" Zhou Luyang's gossip is limited. "Then I don't know."
Liang Xiaohui stood by the window and suddenly called out, "Ji Maili, your Chen Lu and Zhou Bingcheng are downstairs."
Although the news of Chen Lu coming to deliver Ji Maili's schoolbag last time was not spread, it caused a strange circle among the girls in Class 10, who kept saying things that the boys couldn't understand.
Ji Maili stood up, looked out the window, and after seeing the people on the playground, he turned around and ran out.
Zhou Luyang was too late to stop him.
Why was his family killed?
Zhou Luyang looked at the giggling girls and said, "Liang Xiaohui, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Liang Xiaohui crossed her arms and said, "I didn't say anything nonsense. Didn't you see how fast he ran?"
Liang Xiaohui called out to the girls around her, "Come on, let's go and watch the fun."
Ji Maili didn't like running, but maybe because of years of fighting, he ran really fast. When going downstairs, he didn't have the patience to walk up the stairs, so he just jumped down holding the handrail. Every time he jumped down a floor, he caused a commotion.
Liang Xiaohui was running in the front. Seeing Ji Maili jumping so happily, she said with regret, "I should have signed him up for the hurdles earlier!"
Zhou Luyang ran out with him and said speechlessly: "You should take a rest."
When Shen Lu reached the stairs, he heard a commotion upstairs. When he looked up, he saw a person falling from above. This person was none other than someone else.
As soon as Ji Maili landed on the ground, Chen Lu held her waist and gave her a hug. "What are you doing? Playing Tianwai Feixian?"
Ji Maili bared his teeth and claws at Zhou Bingcheng behind Chen Lu, "Zhou Bingcheng, you damn well better fight me to the death——"
Zhou Bingcheng was wearing a coat, so it was impossible to tell where he was injured. There were no obvious external injuries on his face. One could only see that his leg was a little limp and his back was tense.
Chen Lu grabbed Ji Maili's waist, and Ji Maili rushed forward like a rabid dog, wanting to duel with Zhou Bingcheng.
Zhou Bingcheng paused and stood there looking at Ji Maili who was stopped by Chen Lu. He didn't have the arrogance as before, and even stopped provoking. He had an unhappy expression but had to hold it in.
Zhou Luyang ran down to help Chen Lu stop Ji Maili: "Calm down, everyone, calm down."
Chen Lu held Ji Maili's waist with one hand and his wrist with the other, pushing him against the wall. He pressed his right leg against Ji Maili's knee, which was kicking wildly, and barely managed to hold him down. "Are you crazy? Are you going to bite me?"
Ji Maili yelled, "What were you two doing on the playground just now? Is he causing trouble for you again?"
Ji Maili was very strong and was still struggling. Logically, no one dared to hold him down, and no one could hold him down. But strangely, Shen Lu, who was always known as a nerd, easily pinned him down and prevented him from moving: "He's not causing me any trouble, he's apologizing to me."
Ji Maili believed him and pointed at Zhou Bingcheng, "He, apologized to you? Are you crazy?"
Shen Lu: "It's not broken, he still wants to apologize to you."
Ji Maili's mouth twitched, and he pushed Shen Lu, "Get out, I don't want it, it's not disgusting enough."
Zhou Bingcheng's face darkened. He just didn't want to do it either: "Forget it."
Shen Lu turned his head and glanced at Zhou Bingcheng, "Why, didn't you just say you wanted to apologize to him?"
Zhou Bingcheng: “…”
When did he say that? It was you who said that if I didn't apologize to Ji Maili, you would beat me until I apologized!
Zhou Bingcheng's temples were pounding... Chen Lu, this two-faced guy, was beating him up while teaching him who the school bully was yesterday, and today he's pretending to be his good student again! Damn, does he have a split personality?
Zhou Bingcheng hated himself for not being able to expose his two faces, so he could only admit defeat. After all, not everyone is as resilient as Ji Maili.
Zhou Bingcheng gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sorry."
After saying that, he pushed Zhou Luyang away and limped up the stairs.
Zhou Luyang was incredulous. "Am I blind? Did he say sorry to you?"
Ji Maili felt numb all over, "Fuck, this is disgusting."
Chen Lu pressed Ji Maili's shoulders, and the two of them always kept a distance between them that couldn't accommodate a third person. "Have you had enough of the limelight?"
Ji Maili didn't want to be in the spotlight. He glared at Chen Lu as if he was recovering from his attack: "Next time you see someone jumping down, stay the fuck away. I'll smash you to death."
Seeing that they ignored each other, Zhou Luyang reminded them quietly, "Ahem, they're all looking at you two."
Ji Maili glanced around and noticed that there were many people around. He was startled and suddenly pushed Shen Lu away and shouted fiercely: "Why are you so close to me?"
Shen Lu stumbled back a step: "...hiss, is he having a seizure?"
Ji Maili turned around and ran upstairs.
Liang Xiaohui dutifully followed him and said, "Ji Maili, why don't you sign up for the hurdles? With the speed you just jumped off the building, we can take first place in the hurdles this year!"
Ji Maili ran up the stairs, taking three steps at a time, "I won't!"
In the first classroom, Tao Dacheng, who hadn't caught up to join in the fun, looked at Shen Lu who came in from outside: "Did you do it?"
Shen Lu took out the book he would use for the next class, still refusing to admit it, "I don't know what you are talking about?"
Seeing his pretentious demeanor, Tao Dacheng rolled his eyes in disdain. "Don't pretend with me! The news of Zhou Bingcheng getting beaten up outside the school has spread everywhere. The young master was beaten just two days ago, and now someone's out to get revenge. If it wasn't you, could it be that Ji Maili's fighting power suddenly awakened?"
Shen Lu smiled: "Why not?"
"Him? Come on." Tao Dacheng had seen through Ji Maili's true nature over the past period of time. "As for your hot-tempered and clueless young master, he'd be lucky to get away with it if he gets into trouble one day. How could you expect him to take revenge?"
Shen Lu glanced at Tao Dacheng.
Tao Dacheng: "Why, did I say something wrong?"
Shen Lu sighed: "That's right."
Tao Dacheng: "So it was you who did it?"
Shen Lu was annoyed by him: "Why are you always asking so many questions? What's the matter? Are you a spy sent by the dean of studies, ready to gather intelligence and report me at any time?"
Tao Dacheng was speechless: "Okay, okay, I won't ask anymore. I know it's you whether I ask or not."
