Chapter 32: Cafeteria Incident
I just had hotpot and my clothes are full of the smell.

As soon as they got home, Xu Mingyuan and Xiao Yangzhi changed their clothes.

Xiao Yangzhi changed into a light pink sweatshirt that she had just bought today. Under the light, her expression looked much softer.

“Brother…does it look good?”

Little Yangzhi asked lightly with a little shyness.

“Well, it’s pretty good. Buy less black and gray clothes in the future. Youth should look youthful.”

Xu Mingyuan took a look and nodded.

It is indeed necessary to let Xiao Yangzhi go shopping with the girls earlier. It seems that it has even lifted her mood.

“Oh… brother, but why don’t you buy some light-colored clothes?”

“This, haha, I’ll try it next time.” Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

Yang Zhi’s mood became even better. At first, she thought her brother was a serious person who was not easy to mess with, but gradually she found that it was not the case. In fact, her brother was a very easy-going person.

It is not that difficult to muster up the courage to take the initiative to talk rather than just responding passively.

Yang Zhi held the clothes of both of them, thought about it and threw them all into the washing machine, put some detergent in them and soaked them.

They are all coats, as long as the color doesn’t fade.

Seeing Xu Mingyuan sitting on the sofa watching TV, Yang Zhi hesitated and sat over.

“elder brother……”

“Ah.”

“That Sister Tao Tao… likes you?”

Yang Zhi didn’t know why he wanted to ask this question, maybe it was just the gossip in his heart.

“Maybe.” Xu Mingyuan said casually.

It’s not hard to notice that Tao Shuxin has some affection for him.

“Well… do you like her, brother?”

“This?” Xu Mingyuan hesitated, then said, “Of course I have a good impression of her, but it’s not quite accurate to say I like her. I think it’s good enough for us to be friends.”

“Oh……”

Yang Zhi nodded, not quite understanding.

Xu Mingyuan thought about this question. If nothing unexpected happened, their relationship would remain the same as before.

I am not married and you are not married either. We can get together to chat and discuss life whenever we have time.

Once, when Tao Shuxin was about 27 or 28 years old, she asked Xu Mingyuan about his blind date.

At that time, he was very busy with work at the company and changed girlfriends frequently. He didn’t care about this aspect and just casually brushed it off.

Later, when Tao Shuxin was over 30 years old, her family could no longer control her and gradually gave up. The two of them talked more and more.

During this period, Tao Shuxin hinted at it, and Xu Mingyuan naturally understood it, but there was always a layer of window paper between the two of them.

It seemed that Xu Mingyuan did it on purpose to keep the piece of paper intact.

Having seen so many people and things, Xu Mingyuan felt that this little thing was nothing.

Now everything has returned to the starting point. When I think about it carefully, this journey has been quite a mess.

“Xiao Yangzhi, tell me, if Tao Shuxin is still chatting and talking nonsense like this ten or twenty years later, do you think it’s fair to her?”

“Ok?”

Yang Zhi’s face was confused, not knowing what Xu Mingyuan’s confusing words meant.

“Forget it. We all just take things one step at a time. Why think so much?”

The words were addressed to Xiao Yangzhi, but Xu Mingyuan knew in his heart that he was just talking to himself.

Fortunately, he was a badass enough to just throw this tangled mess behind his mind.

“Brother, do you mean a confidante?”

“Haha, you know quite a lot.” Xu Mingyuan smiled and said jokingly, “You should be more careful in the future. If you meet someone like your brother, stay away from him as soon as possible.”

“Why?” Yang Zhi wondered.

“He’s not a good person, what else could it be?” Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

Yang Zhi frowned, not understanding what Xu Mingyuan said.

My brother is only sometimes mean, but he’s actually a pretty nice person.

There is no other brother like him in this world.

As the days go by, the only activity after the Frost Descent is still playing basketball.

In the entire No. 3 Middle School, Xu Mingyuan is not a prominent figure, but generally people who attract attention will give him face.

Almost all the senior high school students of the same grade have heard of him, and the sophomores also have an impression of him. After all, he was involved in the commotion in the cafeteria last year and played a major role behind the scenes.

Because of this incident, his deeds when he just entered high school were also spread.

The cafeteria incident caused quite a stir. At this time, the cafeteria of No. 3 Middle School was clean and tidy, and even the floor was paved with tiles, because the previous glass had been smashed and renovated.

At first, Xu Mingyuan just wanted the canteen to make the food better. It would be fine if it wasn’t delicious, but he just hoped that there wouldn’t be insects, cigarette butts, steel wool, or the like in the food.

When Xu Mingyuan and several classmates were carrying their food trays to find the cafeteria manager, Fatty Chen, seeing that a few students dared to find fault, snatched the food trays from them and kicked them out without giving them a good look.

This made Xu Mingyuan very angry. He usually acted arrogantly in school and had never been treated like this before.

But he was no longer a child in high school, and in order to avoid being expelled, Xu Mingyuan did not want to conflict with the cafeteria manager.

After suppressing the anger of Sun Hongwei and the others, Xu Mingyuan pondered for a few days and came up with a dirty trick.

When eating, he would secretly put something like a cockroach or a caterpillar in the food, then take it out and yell at everyone around him: “Stupid canteen, they put bugs in the food again!”

In just three days, the cafeteria realized that something was wrong and began to control public opinion. It also sent cafeteria employees to patrol during meal times to see if anyone was causing trouble maliciously.

But Xu Mingyuan would not wait for the cafeteria to take over, as many classmates who did not know the truth had already gathered together.

Because the cafeteria was really not clean, some of them had actually eaten bugs or seen their classmates picking bugs out of their plates.

Since then, a rumor has spread among the students of No. 3 Middle School that someone wanted to smash the cafeteria on Monday night.

Everyone thought it was fake news, and it was, nothing happened on Monday, or even the whole week.

The cafeteria, which had been on guard, also relaxed its vigilance, thinking that they were just a bunch of kids who would not cause any big trouble and were just complaining.

However, although the cafeteria has strengthened the management of food cleaning, the number of incidents of bugs being found in food has increased.

This was not done by Xu Mingyuan alone, but some people with similar interests also started to do so.

You know, teenagers aged sixteen or seventeen are the most passionate and impulsive, and are also the group of people who are most easily instigated.

Seeing that some students who like to stir up trouble were also eager to try, Xu Mingyuan knew that the time was ripe.

At noon, when it was the most crowded, the noisy cafeteria was suddenly quelled for two seconds by a shout.

“Fuck! My buddy is vomiting blood! Everyone stop eating! Someone is eating to death in the stupid cafeteria! Is there anyone here? Call 120!”

After shouting this, plates flew up from nowhere and some unlucky students were immediately drenched in soup. One after another, students stood up and began to look around.

This was followed by a loud “clang” and the stainless steel table that was fixed to the concrete floor with screws was somehow overturned.

Then I heard someone shouting, “Someone died in the cafeteria!”

“Someone wants to harm us! Just destroy the cafeteria!”

“Yes! Smash the cafeteria!”

At this time, it was no longer Xu Mingyuan and others who were shouting.

“Smash the cafeteria!”

“Smashed!”

“…”

High school students basically don’t go home at noon. Although not all of them eat in the cafeteria, there are still some.

It is human nature to watch the fun. Hearing the noise coming from the cafeteria, some students moved towards the cafeteria.

Since then, the incident not only exceeded Xu Mingyuan’s expectations, but also far exceeded the control of the school.
