Chapter 75: Qin Ritian Is Not Convinced
Yang Han Lu was taken by her mother, but was also beaten too, and it was probably going to continue at home.
I can't help but feel depressed, Qin Lan and Yang Han Lu were both really similar, and both had terrible families.
Qin Lan has changed a lot now, and is doing a lot better now, but Yang Han Lu was a complete "lunatic", which makes people hate her.
I am not able to save her, it all depends on what she decides to do.
And since she was taken from the skating rink, I didn’t need to be here anymore, so I left. It was too late at night so I couldn’t return to my dorm and went to the landlord’s place.
The landlord is still the same loser, and was very stingy, and wanted some kind of pay. I told him I stole the pretty girl's panties for you once, isn’t that good enough?
He snapped: " I don't use them, I just sell them." I slanted my eyes: "You don't even use them? How disgusting."
He got angry: “Xiao Xiao, you really think I'm like that? I can’t sell what I use. If I use something I don’t sell it, and if I don’t use it I’ll sell it.”
Aigoo, I left, I said wow, I admire you so much, continue on then. He smiled smugly and flattered me: "Yang Han Lu's panties can be sold for a very high price, I am determined to sell for three hundred yuan, saying that this was from a model or something, those people were close with me, and they would believe me. Get some more, she likes you anyway." (TN: 300 yuan is about 42 USD.)
I rolled my eyes: "She's not doing well right now, and I won't talk to you much. You need to help me check on her, if she still comes back you go to that milk tea store by Takasu Middle School and look for me."
He was puzzled, and I didn't say much. I took a shower and went to bed and rushed back to school early the next morning.
The class teacher did not scold me thankfully, had she gotten used to it?
I was glad that she had gotten used to it. It was good that I didn't have to write a review every day. But Lin Yin Yin wouldn't spare me. She dragged me out and scolded me: "Where did you go last night? Why do you always skip class?"
She was also concerned about my studies, and I said I had to go home in a hurry. She grunted: "You have news about your manuscript, I tried to tell you last night but couldn't find you anywhere."
I was so happy, I said how was it? She was depressed: "I can't believe it, it didn't pass."
I was shocked: "How is that possible? I passed last time, how can I not pass this time when you helped me so much?"
She was embarrassed: "The editor said it was too much like my writing, which wouldn't be good for you, so you have to slowly figure out your own style, and it doesn't matter if the writing is immature."
I was shocked that this was the reason? Lin Yin Yin puffed out her mouth, " It's just a magazine, and you're just copying my style, you'll have to find out your own style of writing."
Well, this makes sense, except for the plot, she helped me with the rest of the manuscript, so it was inevitable that it was tinged with her style, and the editor probably didn't like it.
I said I'd go back and rewrite it, or make a new one alone. She agreed, saying we were too eager.
I nodded my head and asked her Ah Li. She said: "What can I do? I'll be fine with it I guess."
I almost laughed and deliberately poked her: " What about the little loli?" She exploded with anger: "She's so naughty! I want to beat her up!"
I said the two of you are very similar, what makes you want to fight each other? She stared at me: "What do you mean?"
I coughed: "Why would a loli want to conflict with another loli?" Her foot flew towards me: "Ah, argh!!"
I ran away and went back to my seat and started to think about my manuscript, I had to rewrite it, but fortunately the plot was there and it wasn't very difficult.
But Zhang Xiong, that pussy, was fucking spying on me, and wanted to talk. I yelled at him directly: "What?"
He waved his hand: "Brother Chen, I did not want to disturb you." I said what do you need, his face showed admiration: "I heard from my friends that you went to the skating rink last night, wow, so cool, and you took that girl."
This guy seems to have a lot of friends at the skating rink, he knew about me so quickly. I said then what? He flattered me: "Brother Chen, now you have quite a reputation, you could probably enter the underground ......"
Does this kid have a brain? This person only thinks about the underworld and nothing else, all just so that he could cool in front of his friends, but he doesn’t even realize what danger he brings to himself. I said, you seem so interested in committing crimes, why don’t you actually do something yourself.
He complained: “I would, but I’m too scared, if I could, I would have made a gang already.”
I slapped him on the shoulder and let out a long sigh: "You need to stay out of that, the yakuza you admire are actually a group of idiots, real yakuzas wear suits and do actual business, they don't just act tough and punch people."
It took me a long time to realize this as well. I have seen all kinds of yellow-haired punks, who were all bullshit gangsters.
Zhang Xiong was too naive, even when I told him explicitly he still refused to relent: "We can unify the people at the skating rink by collecting protection money, then we slowly get big.”
I said to him: “Imagine some old rich man wanted to take over the skating rink, by paying them off and telling them to leave, do you really think the people there would leave the money.”
He said they wouldn't, saying that everyone has pride in their work. I stopped caring about him, let him fantasize about silly gangsters.
I worked on rewriting my manuscript, and only wrote a little bit until school was over, and then I was tired of writing.
Lin Yin Yin didn't come to see me anymore, she must be very busy at home, because she would go home as soon as school was over. Then I went to eat, and once again I started thinking about what I’ve done and what business I haven’t finished yet, then I thought about Qin Lan.
I sent her a letter, how come she hasn't replied back? I got more worried the more I thought about it, but I don't think Qin Ritian found out, right?
It was possible, otherwise why would she not reply?
Fortunately, a letter came in the evening, a full day later from when I sent mine. The literature member still had a stinky face while giving me the letter, but I was busy running to the bathroom to check it out with joy, only to have that joy immediately crushed.
"Hello, little bastard, I really did not expect you to be communicating with my sister, awesome ah. Also, I almost forgot about you, have you forgotten about me too? In that case, it's time for you to remember who I am."
I narrowed my eyes, even though I felt like this might have happened earlier, I was still surprised that it happened. This bastard has now fully cut me off from Qin Lan.
I’m scared that I won’t be able to talk with Qin Lan again. I felt anger raise in my heart, fuck you bastard, why can’t you just leave us alone? If I don’t get to kill you, you’d wish you were dead.
I tore this letter directly into the toilet, and looked at his letter, it dirtied my hands.
Afterwards, I went back to the classroom pissed, and Zhang Xiong hurriedly said: "Brother Chen, just now a friend of mine told me that something is wrong, and many people are going to hurt you."
I narrowed my eyes and smiled sneeringly, "I know, there were a lot of children who were jealous of me again."
He was surprised, then asked what to do. I casually fished out my watermelon knife: "A bunch of idiots, watch how I deal with them."
Zhang Xiong shrank in fear, and laughed bitterly: "Brother Chen, you're no longer good at this, the people who screw you will definitely carry knives, as long as one of the ten people is brave enough to fight with you you are finished."
This made sense because I wasn’t the only one who went all out. But then what could I do? But then he suddenly got excited: “See I knew it! We need to unify the criminals so they all work for you, and are too scared to even think about hurting you.”
I shouted: "Go away!"
I don’t think doing that would work at all, that is dumb, the only way that would even begin work is if we were rich.
But Qin Hao mentioned something about making me ‘remember’ him, so I had to be weary about what he was about to do. In the past, I didn’t have that much of a hard time because there weren’t many of them, but now he had a lot of people he could pay to take me down, which was not good at all.
I didn’t leave the school this week, but I looked around occasionally. And it was true, every now and then there would be a punk lurking around, squatting.
This definitely was more than the jerks at the skating rink, some rich person was probably after me too.
Zhang Xiong has been helpful. He would go out every day to ask about the situation with his friends. He tells me that everyday it would get worse, and there were more and more people searching for me.
I laughed cynically, and wrote my manuscript in peace, and then handed it to Lin Yin Yin. The manuscript passed on Friday, and she happily came to tell me that if I write one or two more articles, I might be officially signed.
I'm not in a hurry to get some money and I can live perfectly right now, and the more hasty I act, the more likely I am to fail.
Now it was, and I planned to go to help my sister do some work and ask the landlord about Yang Han Lu while there.
I didn’t tell Lin Yin Yin about Qin Hao. I didn’t want to rely on women anymore, and recently it seems like I have been.
After making up my mind to leave, Zhang Xiong caught up with me. He went ahead and looked around, then came back to me: “Hurry up, hurry up, I’m going out for dinner, so take this chance to leave.”
He’s pretty handy, so I ran. I didn’t want to confront the gangster head on right now, so I just ran for now.
Translator Notes: A somewhat calm chapter today? Anyways MC made a royal mistake, and Qin Hao ended up intercepting the letter he sent, so now they probably won’t be able to communicate with each other, and he also made the people who hang out at the skating rink very angry, so he’s got a lot of people that want him dead. Butttt thats pretty much all for today, I’ll see you allllll, next time, bye byeeeeee! oh also sorry for if it's lower quality, i waws jamming to music and was singing my heart out sooo there might be a few mistakes anyways bye for real
