Chapter 254
“What's going on?” When the cla.s.s leader saw the plastic package on Xiao Qin's desk and the worn mask in my hands, the cla.s.s leader was flabbergasted and asked, “Why did you let her open her mask?”
Xiao Qin completely ignored the cla.s.s leader and began scribbling in her notebook, and she said in a quiet voice:
“Female #2 has really long hair with a heart as vicious as a snake…”
I took out ¥10 and handed it to the cla.s.s leader: “Seems like there's something wrong with her head again and I couldn't even stop her. I'm paying for her mask.”
Even though she said everything of hers would be free to me, it seems like she really enjoyed that I paid for her since it gave her the misconception I was taking care of her.
The cla.s.s leader took the money without another word and wanted to record a name into her notebook.
The notebook was soft and she didn't have a pad to write on. The cla.s.s leader glanced at Xiao Qin's desk. It was filled with pencils, erasers, rulers, and pictures of carrots that went as far as the eye could see.
I know the cla.s.s leader needed a place to write, so I pointed to my completely flat desk.
I was not sure what the cla.s.s leader was thinking, but she actually rejected my good intentions. It was as if she felt her face would be too close to me if she wrote on my desk and I would take advantage of her.
Who would take advantage of you! Although you're wearing a plain and simple summer school outfit —— a short white s.h.i.+rt and navy blue skirt —— it feels a bit small on your body and it's tightly wrapped around your b.r.e.a.s.t.s. Your skirt doesn't really cover your kneecaps and your long hair is emitting a fairly discernible scent of apple shampoo… But now is not the time to hit on you! Last time, it was a complete accident when we kissed, why do you have to think I have bad intentions? I just spoke out for you in front of the cla.s.s!
Even then, the cla.s.s leader didn't want to write crooked words on the list. She was struck by an idea and she raised her left leg carefully so her skirt wouldn't slide off too much. Then she stayed in this position and used her leg as a pad to write down my name and amount collected.
Cla.s.s leader, do you think you're being clever? Why not just write on my desk?! Do you think guys only look at b.r.e.a.s.t.s? You're still too immature! I have a friend who enjoys not so secretive spots on a girl such as their neck, shoulders, collar bones, waist, hands, and feet….
Oh right, based on normal conventions, when someone says ‘I have a friend…', they are usually referring to themselves.
That's why when the cla.s.s leader was using her leg as a temporary desk, she was letting me enjoy the smooth curves of her legs! I'm waiting for the skirt to slide down even more!
The cla.s.s leader held down the skirt well and it only took her a couple of seconds to write down a name, so my dream was quickly shattered.
After the cla.s.s leader left, Xiao Qin was still setting up the character for female #2, she muttered to herself:
“Female #2 brazenly showed off her long legs in front of the male protagonist, and it made the male protagonist's nostrils larger…” (TN: Maybe it's a Chinese reference for being pervy?)
Whose nostrils got larger! The cla.s.s leader would have used your desk as a place to write if it wasn't so messy!
During lunch break, each cla.s.s discussed about the masks, and it was found out that cla.s.s 2-3 had the most idiots. We had 10 people who fell for it and we ranked number one in terms of how many students bought it per cla.s.s.
I'm not sure why (maybe it was because the masks were bought from the vice-president's relatives), but it seems the number of masks bought was somehow related to hygiene and our cla.s.s got the hygiene red flag we had lost. (TN: Kinda like cla.s.s award)
A bunch of people saw the cla.s.s leader lying on her desk and using a textbook to cover her face. Her shoulders were trembling slightly but she didn't make any sounds.
“Is she crying in secret because we blamed her?”
Some girls said with worry, “We might have gone overboard in the morning. Why does the cla.s.s leader have to take responsibility for the school's mistakes?”
The cla.s.s leaders loyal dogs all believed they neglected their duty and were talking about committing harakiri as an apology. But they were not thinking about how they usually only follow behind Niu s.h.i.+Li. Since Niu s.h.i.+Li wasn't at peak condition today, they didn't have any backbone.
But Loud Mouth told me the cla.s.s leader was actually hiding her face and laughing because we received the hygiene red flag.
Did she care that much about collective honor? Is it okay to feel a bit of grievance as long as there's honor?
The first cla.s.s in the afternoon was history. Since my cellphone was almost out of power, I couldn't really surf the web, so I could only listen to the boring lecture. He talked about how the boxers attacked Beijing, robbed the merchants, and killed the clergyman.
“Hmph, although I'm not going to test you on these topics, you should still learn about the truth!”
The history teacher left the lectern and began to walk around the cla.s.sroom making everyone at ease. They were no longer able to finish homework from other cla.s.ses or play fruit ninja on their phones.
“Students, who knows why the boxers robbed merchants?”
Eunuch Cao raised his hand and spoke: “I know! Cause they have money!”
The history teacher happily waved his hand and told Eunuch Cao to sit, then Eunuch Cao said in a quiet voice: “Once they get money, they can hire prost.i.tutes…”
During computer cla.s.s, Eunuch Cao and I sat in the last row as usual. Moreover, he has to teach me his PS skills based on our previous agreement.
“Jie Jie Jie Jie —— since you weren't ashamed to ask your subordinates for help, I brought great materials from home to help you practice!”
I was extremely afraid he brought one of his alb.u.ms of j.a.panese AV actresses combined with girls from our cla.s.s. I never expected him to have normal, upper body shots of all our cla.s.smates.
“Jie Jie Jie Jie, master I found these on the cla.s.s social media page and it took a lot of effort!”
I was doubtful of his words. The photos of the girls had the best angles and lighting, but as for the guys, they seemed a bit strange.
No, to be precise, it looked sinister. Not sure why he only chose photos with poor lighting or bad expressions, but basically every single one of them looked like a villain.
Niu s.h.i.+Li's photo in bad lighting made him look like a loan shark. My photo with a slightly raised smile (I didn't even join the cla.s.s group, so I don't even know how he got my photo) made me look like a professional hitman.
Of course, his photo was also included and he was smiling like a Buddha. But everyone all knew he looked the evilest.
“Master, the first step of the learning process is to crop out the people from the background. I'll be beside you to guide you!”
I slowly began to trim the photos, not sure what Eunuch Cao was planning but I felt like I was playing into his hands.
