SC Chapter 1
by Volare[Hold my hand, our story…begins.]
Inside Xinjì High School, Class 9 of the third year.
A Chinese textbook slammed heavily onto the desk, the ear-piercing sound breaking the silence and making the entire class shudder.
The teacher on the podium had a gloomy face, seemingly having endured it for a long time, and shouted loudly, “Some people are paying attention in class! Some people, however, are sleeping!”
They all turned their gazes towards the boy sleeping at his desk in the last row.
You know, he’s quite handsome, why is his behavior so awful?
Class 9 was the worst class, only the principal cared about it, the other teachers turned a blind eye to the students’ behavior.
Because of this, Class 9 became a well-known presence in the school, especially this legendary figure –
Yun Muye.
A man whose written self-criticisms could fill three novels.
Being a nuisance wasn’t a one-time thing, but why! Did it have to be when the teacher promised to give a good public class and treat the whole class to milk tea!
Perhaps Yun Muye felt the angry gazes of his classmates, and slowly opened one eye.
His appearance was languid, but his features were still beautiful. A pair of slightly turbid peach blossom eyes gazed forward, his fair arm pillowed under his head, his hands fiddling indifferently.
But when he saw the scene in front of him clearly, he instantly perked up.
Good heavens! They all looked like they wanted to kill him, their expressions were uniform, their eyes wide, and anger spewing from their nostrils and ears. If emotions had substance, he would already be diced.
Yun Muye remembered! This class was a public class! What did the old teacher say?
“As long as you do well, I’ll treat the whole class to milk tea!”
What did he say to his deskmate Liu Lan at the time?
“I’ll definitely be energetic tomorrow!”
But he had used all his energy last night, Yun Muye hadn’t slept all night.
He didn’t dare to look up, because if he did, he would only be greeted by the old teacher’s chalk and those terrifying eyes, and muttered softly, “I was too excited last night.”
Responding to him was a slap faster than chalk, hitting the back of his head. Yun Muye guessed who it was –
Principal Wang Shuai.
He wasn’t handsome at all, with a big belly and acting young even though he was in his forties or fifties.
“We’re in class! What are you doing here?!” The loud, slightly Northeastern voice pierced through the entire third-year section, making the reading voices in the next class a little louder.
Yun Muye adjusted his sitting posture a little guiltily, straightening his body.
The female teacher sitting next to Wang Shuai raised her glasses and coughed a few times, “Did this student not rest well last night?”
Yun Muye understood, she was asking, “Did you play games until dawn again last night?”
This female teacher was no simple character, Wang Shuai’s wife, Zhang Mei’yang, known as Dayang.
At this moment, there was only one correct answer to this life-threatening question.
“Haha, Da… no, no, Teacher Zhang, I was too excited about this class yesterday! I was so excited that I couldn’t sleep.”
Wang Shuai slapped his thigh and roared, “Then you shouldn’t be sleeping at this time!”
Yun Muye lowered his head.
Zhang Mei’yang tugged at Wang Shuai’s sleeve, reminding him that he had to maintain some politeness in front of other people.
Wang Shuai also realized that he was indeed a little out of line, and apologized softly to the other teachers.
Yun Muye thanked Dayang in his heart.
The homeroom teacher had already had all the words she wanted to say stolen by Wang Shuai, and her anger had subsided a little, “Alright, Yun Muye, sit down and don’t do it again.”
Yun Muye sat down.
Everyone’s eyes returned to the podium, and Liu Lan gave Yun Muye the middle finger under the table.
The homeroom teacher regained her composure and continued to teach the class.
After a class, the teachers in the back row left one after another, and Wang Shuai glared at Yun Muye fiercely. What could Yun Muye say, he sat there without daring to move.
After only students were left in the classroom, a large wail sounded one after another, extremely miserable.
Yun Muye also became his usual aloof self, fiddling with his bangs, his peach blossom eyes becoming sharp again. Just a disdainful glance, and no one dared to speak.
Liu Lan frowned, pointing to the word ‘quiet’ in the book, “What are you doing! Why are you sleeping, why did it have to be this class!”
Yun Muye slapped his hand away, his face sullen, “Crazy, didn’t you hear me say I was too excited to sleep?”
Liu Lan: “Forget it, forget it, no milk tea then.”
Yun Muye flipped through the white, glowing book again and again, throwing it aside casually, “Is there anyone who’s unhappy?! You’re welcome to tell me, see you in the small grove after school!”
Everyone had to accept their fate, “No one’s unhappy, Brother Yun.”
Yun Muye’s combat record was ranked first in the school, no one dared to mess with him.
The student sitting in front of Yun Muye was called Guo Xi, who looked quite ordinary, but when he dressed up, he could be said to be an ugly duckling turned into a phoenix, attracting many girls to throw themselves into the net.
At this moment, Guo Xi was getting intimate with his girlfriend.
Yun Muye felt disgusted, so he simply picked up the book and slapped them each once.
Guo Xi and his girlfriend Zhu Zi, who were beaten, covered their heads and cried out in pain.
“Brother Yun, what are you doing?”
Yun Muye rolled up the book and patted it in his hand, “Do it where I can’t see it!”
The two were forced to let go of their intertwined fingers.
Liu Lan gave Yun Muye a thumbs up, “Yun Muye, really wild! Brother Yun is awesome!”
Yun Muye looked at Liu Lan: “Liu Lan, in the public class, did you give me the middle finger?”
Liu Lan was immediately startled into a cold sweat, closed his eyes tightly, and was just prepared to face a slap when the female class monitor suddenly appeared.
“Yun Muye, the old teacher is calling you.”
Thank you, class monitor!
Yun Muye tilted his head, “Class monitor, can I not go?”
The female class monitor, Li Yu, had been the class monitor in Class 9 for three years, and had always been a bookworm.
She imitated Xiao Mo’s tone and said, “No.”
Yun Muye walked towards the old teacher’s office, not forgetting his original intention, and gave Liu Lan a slap.
Inside the office, the old teacher Xiao Mo was wearing a cheongsam, with light makeup, and had taken care of herself meticulously. Hearing the sound of the door opening, she looked up.
Yun Muye had taken off his school uniform, he was wearing a white T-shirt, and was staring eagerly at the good tea on the table, looking despicable.
Xiao Mo asked dissatisfied, “What? Am I some kind of monster?”
Yun Muye reluctantly took a few steps forward.
Xiao Mo said meaningfully, “Yun Muye, this afternoon, several excellent students will be transferring here, and there will be a welcome ceremony.”
Yun Muye didn’t listen closely.
“In order to leave a deep impression on the transfer students, this time, you must participate!”
Yun Muye still didn’t listen closely, and even became sleepy.
“You help me settle those students and get them to attend this ceremony, and I won’t hold you accountable for sleeping in the public class.”
Yun Muye was about to close his eyes.
“I’ll even treat you to this cup of milk tea.”
Yun Muye suddenly opened his eyes.
“I guarantee to complete the mission!”
In the class, Liu Lan was playing marbles with Guo Xi. Seeing Yun Muye come back, he waved to him, “Yun Muye, come on, play together!”
Yun Muye cleared his throat and said loudly, “There’s a welcome ceremony this afternoon, remember to attend.”
Liu Lan said to Guo Xi, “Has Brother Yun been possessed?”
Even if they didn’t understand, Yun Muye’s orders naturally had to be followed, and they all nodded in agreement.
Wang Shuai, who was eavesdropping outside the door, nodded in agreement.
Perhaps because of the transfer student event, today’s lunch was particularly delicious, comparable to a state banquet.
Everyone ate with great enthusiasm, especially Yun Muye.
Liu Lan finished getting his food and saw Yun Muye’s bottle of milk tea among countless heads.
He hurried over, pointed to the milk tea and asked, “Where did this milk tea come from?”
“Don’t make a fuss, the old teacher gave it to me.”
“You betrayed us for a bottle of milk tea?!”
Yun Muye took a bite of the chicken leg, “If you were me, what would you do?”
Liu Lan thought this made sense, and sat down next to him, “Give me a sip.”
Yun Muye glared at him, “Get lost.”
The afternoon arrived quickly.
Wang Shuai announced on the radio, “Please line up to attend today’s welcome ceremony.”
An incredible thing happened in the entire school.
For the first time, the entire Class 9 lined up in an orderly manner, some students’ colorful hair particularly eye-catching.
A female student asked her friend, “How many times is this?”
“First time.”
Today, the sun was obscured by white clouds, and the breeze blew across their faces, refreshingly.
Because Class 9 appeared on the playground in an orderly line for the first time, it attracted the attention of many students and teachers.
The teacher of Class 8 asked, “Why is everyone attending today?”
Xiao Mo looked smug, “Because of Yun Muye.”
The teacher of Class 8 sighed, “That guy is quite useful.”
The entire school gathered, and the welcome ceremony officially began. Wang Shuai changed into a set of clothes suitable for young people, but it was a bit awkward. He went on stage, took the microphone, and began to read the manuscript.
“Good afternoon, teachers and students!”
Thunderous applause rang out.
The people in Class 9 also clapped lazily.
“In this bright afternoon, our school welcomes several excellent top students! They are full of youthful vitality, and I believe these top students will take our school to a higher level!”
It was all the same words, Yun Muye complained inwardly.
“Please allow me to introduce them to you!”
Five handsome young men took the stage one by one.
“The first one, Duan Sirong!”
Yun Muye raised his head and glanced.
He was quite handsome, with a pair of eyes gazing forward, a high nose bridge, and delicate features, like a small sparrow flying out of a flower field. He wore the ordinary school uniform with a different feel, as if even the price had increased a lot, his body seemed to be glowing.
He successfully attracted shouts from the girls in the entire school.
For some reason, Yun Muye was captivated. The entire welcome ceremony was forty minutes long, and Yun Muye spent thirty minutes looking at Duan Sirong. Even though there were many interesting programs, he kept looking at him.
The ceremony ended, and Yun Muye hadn’t recovered yet. He was still looking at Duan Sirong, who was talking to the principal. Liu Lan called him a few times, and when he didn’t respond, he followed Yun Muye’s gaze. After realizing it was Duan Sirong, he shouted loudly. This pig-killing-like shout successfully woke up Yun Muye.
“What the hell are you barking about?!”
Liu Lan’s hand trembled as he pointed at Duan Sirong, then pointed at Yun Muye.
“You, you, you were looking at Duan Sirong in a daze!”
Liu Lan successfully received a slap.
Yun Muye stood up and said, “Crazy.”
Liu Lan still courted death, “You were clearly looking at Duan Sirong!”
“It’s just that among all the ugly people in the school, he’s quite good-looking.”
