Chapter 17 You’re Going to Die
Looking at Tao Shuxin who was glaring at him angrily, Xu Mingyuan felt inexplicably dazed and took a deep puff of his cigarette.

Then I saw her eyes widen even further.

“How dare you!”

“What’s the big deal? We’re not in school. I’m an adult, okay?”

Xu Mingyuan slowly exhaled the smoke, exerted force with his fingers, and unceremoniously flicked the cigarette butt towards the trash can at the door, creating a ball of sparks.

“Taotao, what’s wrong, Taotao? Xu Mingyuan! You are bullying me again!”

The girl following Tao Shuxin hurried over and stared at him with indignation.

“Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean again? Can you please be reasonable? Besides, which eye of yours saw me bullying anyone? Be careful or I will sue you for false accusation.” Xu Mingyuan said indifferently.

He only fought with others when he was in the first year of high school. When he was a little older, everyone thought he was no longer a child, so fighting was shameful and nothing happened. He was not a person who would take the initiative to cause trouble. At most, he would bully those students who were afraid of the strong and bullied the weak.

The girl who jogged over was not bad looking, but Xu Mingyuan could no longer remember her name, except for a vague impression of it.

“Go ahead and sue! See if anyone will pay attention to you!”

Tao Shuxin gritted her teeth, and her cheeks were visibly puffed.

Seeing her like an angry little bun, Xu Mingyuan wanted to laugh.

I always feel that she is very different from the intellectual woman I am familiar with, but I also feel that this is the real her.

“Get up, do you still want to sleep on the floor?”

Seeing the hand extended to her, Tao Shuxin was slightly stunned. She didn’t expect that Xu Mingyuan didn’t argue with her.

The autumn morning sunshine was not very glaring, and it gave the smile on Xu Mingyuan’s face a layer of gold. Tao Shuxin always felt that something was different about him.

Looking at the dumbfounded Tao Shuxin, Xu Mingyuan was puzzled. “Hey, don’t think this cement floor is clean. It was mopped with toilet water.”

“Huh~”

Tao Shuxin squeezed out a disdainful voice from her throat, slapped his hand away, then grabbed his arm to gain leverage and stood up.

She noticed something was different about Xu Mingyuan, so she cut her hair short to look cleaner.

“Mingyuan, is this your classmate?” Cheng Liang asked.

“Yeah.” Xu Mingyuan nodded.

“You’re really in school? I thought you were lying to me.”

Cheng Liang always thought that Xu Mingyuan was making excuses. After all, he seemed to have more free time than himself. Unexpectedly, he actually met his classmates, two pretty girls at that.

“Would you like to introduce yourself to me? Hey, sister, my name is Cheng Liang.” Seeing that Xu Mingyuan ignored him, Cheng Liang turned around and asked with a grin.

“Who wants to meet you? You look like a pig. You don’t even know how to take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror to see what kind of person you are!”

“Hahaha……”

Xu Mingyuan couldn’t hold it back. Compared to the elegant and calm Tao Shuxin, she was more interesting at this moment.

Tao Shuxin has a bad temper now. She picks on other people’s shortcomings and scolds them, which makes Cheng Liang blush. He wanted to get angry but saw Xu Mingyuan laughing beside him, so he could only rub the swelling on his face and curse inwardly for his bad luck in getting disfigured today.

“Tao Tao, Tao Tao…”

The girl next to him saw that Cheng Liang had a gloomy face and didn’t look like someone who was easy to mess with, so she quickly pulled Tao Shuxin and winked at him, not wanting to make the matter escalate.

Tao Shuxin won’t be afraid. Xu Mingyuan is here. No matter how much of a jerk he is, he won’t just watch his classmates get beaten.

“Linlin, don’t worry about me.” Tao Shuxin patted the dust off his school uniform pants and said loudly, “Xu Mingyuan!”

“You don’t go to school and hang out with these shady people all day, right? Are you worthy of your parents’ expectations and your teachers’ teachings?”

“Ha, sorry.” Xu Mingyuan nodded in agreement.

“Look at your playful attitude!”

Tao Shuxin put her hands on her waist and accused.

Xu Mingyuan suddenly felt a little bored.

Little girls should just look at it. It is pleasing to the eyes, but it is just chattering and not soothing to the heart at all.

“How come you have time to come out today? Is there something wrong?” Xu Mingyuan asked.

“I just came out for a walk because I have nothing to do. I wanted to drink milk tea.”

Tao Shuxin rolled her eyes.

“Oh, what a coincidence. Go over there and turn left after two traffic lights. There is a newly opened milk tea shop. The taste is quite good.”

Xu Mingyuan pointed casually.

He didn’t know what a milk tea shop was, he was just making it up.

“real or fake?”

“Of course it’s true.”

“Linlin, how about we go and take a look?” “Okay.” Tang Lin nodded.

“Then walk slowly and be careful at the intersection.”

Xu Mingyuan waved goodbye and sent the two little girls away.

Before they had walked more than ten meters, Tao Shuxin suddenly came to his senses and decided that he couldn’t let him go so easily!

Then Xu Mingyuan saw Tao Shuxin running over angrily, grabbing his arm and saying, “You, you, you! Come here!”

“Hey, hey, hey, be gentle.”

The little girl’s hands were icy cold, but she was quite strong and almost pulled him off the stool to the ground.

After stumbling a few steps, Xu Mingyuan said speechlessly: “Do you understand what it means that men and women should not touch each other.”

“Tsk! You’re still so feudal at such a young age!”

Tao Shuxin snorted, and seeing his expression she knew he was joking, but she still quickly let go of his hand.

The Internet developed very quickly in 03, and social atmosphere gradually became more open, but we still grew up in a conservative atmosphere. You know, since elementary school, boys and girls playing together would be booed by their peers.

“Hey! Why don’t you go to school?” Tao Shuxin asked.

“Didn’t I take sick leave? Why should I go to school?” Xu Mingyuan asked back.

“You look so active and jumping around, you don’t look like you have any problem. You are just looking for excuses to skip school and come to the internet cafe to play games. You are not doing your job properly!”

Tao Shuxin acted like a class monitor and criticized the young man who was about to go astray with deep sorrow.

“Which eye of yours saw me playing games? I was just sitting at the door, okay?”

“Huh, I don’t know that you guys are already discussing killing monsters and leveling up for equipment right after class. I’ve got calluses on my ears. Don’t you have money to go online? Go home now!”

Tao Shuxin pouted and stared at Xu Mingyuan, afraid that he would run away.

The fact that Xu Mingyuan was able to be admitted to Jiangcheng Institute of Technology was partly due to Tao Shuxin.

She was a very enthusiastic girl, and Xu Mingyuan would often quarrel with her. She would occasionally pick up Xu Mingyuan’s test paper, point at the wrong questions and mock him, and then reluctantly point out where the mistakes were until he explained them clearly.

Seeing that Xu Mingyuan didn’t say anything and just looked at her with a smile, Tao Shuxin suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a bit weird, as if the air around her was starting to get hot.

“Xu Mingyuan, are you planning to stop studying?”

At this time, Tao Shuxin was no longer as angry as before, and instead asked in a low voice.

“No, at least I have to get a diploma.”

“Oh…” Tao Shuxin felt a little relieved, “Are you seriously injured?”

“It’s okay, just a bump on the head.”

“Let me see, let me see.” Tao Shuxin insisted that Xu Mingyuan point out the location. After finding a scar hidden by the hair, she complained, “It’s not a serious injury.”

“How do you know the injury isn’t serious? This is my head. I almost became a vegetable. I lay in bed for more than a week before I woke up.”

“so serious?”

Even Tang Lin who was standing by was surprised.

“Actually, it’s okay. I was dizzy for a few days after I woke up, but I’m fine now.” Xu Mingyuan said.

Tao Shuxin heard this and flipped Xu Mingyuan’s head over again before saying, “Then why don’t you go back to school? The teacher can’t contact you.”

“It’s so hard to get a leave, why don’t you take a few more days off.”

“Hey! You just know how to play. We are already in the third year of high school!”

“Isn’t senior year just right? All the classes are done anyway, so all that’s left is review.”

“Oh, oh, oh, you sound so easy. It seems like you have learned it all.”

Tao Shuxin kept looking him up and down, full of sarcasm.

“It’s just so-so. Tsinghua University and Peking University are no problem.”

Bragging is not taxable, and Xu Mingyuan is talking nonsense.

“vomit……”

Tao Shuxin covered her mouth and pretended to vomit.

“Are you pregnant?”

“go away!”

“Why are you mad at me? It’s not mine.”

“You’re going to die!”
