After the official start of classes, the school’s cafeteria also began to operate. Students generally had lunch in the cafeteria or in small restaurants in the areas around school. Because Haicheng’s cafeteria was known for its cleanliness and good food, most students chose the cafeteria.
Just after the bell rang, several boys in the class rushed out of the classrooms like the wind. The math teacher was accustomed to this scene and joked while receiving lesson plans: “I wish them the first sweet and sour pork ribs of the semester.”
The signature dish of Haicheng’s cafeteria was sweet and sour pork ribs.
Yue Li had drooled the entire lesson with Qi Ying and when she saw the scene of classmates rushing to lunch, she also hurriedly ran towards the cafeteria.
Yue Li underestimated the group of wolves’ love of sweet and sour pork rib. By the time the girls arrived, the trays were empty.
So they had to choose the sweet and sour fish ball.
At the peak of lunch, there were people everywhere. When Yue Li led Qi Ying to find somewhere to eat their meal, there were no empty tables. Generally, the case was to gather with other classmates and find a table. Yue Li was no exception. She found classmates from their class and walked towards them with her plate.
The other dining tables were almost full, with only one table by the glass door.
People came and went, no one sat, they didn’t even glance at the table.
Yue Li was still talking to her classmate who was not far away.
As soon as her words fell, the noisy cafeteria was suddenly quiet.
Yue Li was so scared that she covered her mouth, thinking she was too loud, but she found that everyone was rushing to the door. She also looked back. She almost dropped her lunch tray.
She didn’t know how Qi Ying, who had been just behind her, was now sitting opposite Ji Rang.
Who doesn’t know in Haicheng First High School that Ji Rang never eats at the same table with other people and even the group of teenagers that followed him would not trespass this rule.
When Ji Rang first entered Haicheng, no one thought this freshman who was said to be difficult would actually be hard to mess with. At that time, a high school senior from the sports school was very provocative and sat opposite to Ji Rang and was hit by a tray filled with hot dishes in front of the school’s teachers and students.
Carrying a violent temper, Ji Rang broke two of his front teeth.
Since then, everyone took a detour around him.
Yue Li was almost scared to death. When she wanted to shout out, she remembered Qi Ying couldn’t hear her and when she thought about it, she also didn’t dare.
The whole cafeteria was shrouded in a strange quietness.
Qi Ying actually smiled at the teenager opposite her.
She was actually a little unhappy. Why was everyone laughing and joking, but the general was sitting here alone?
There people misunderstood him with all the gossip.
It was too much!
Ji Rang looked at Qi Ying for a while, but did not respond.
Qi Ying blinked, as if puzzled, then smiled at him then lowered her head and began to eat.
She had good posture while eating. Her long eyelashes flickered up and down as she chewed. She ate deliciously without any sound.
Qu Dazhuang and Liu Haiyang were sitting at the table next to them. They were afraid to make a sound. They were afraid that it would make Ji Ge beat them with a dinner plate.
Ji Rang looked at her for a long time then finally moved.
Everyone took a sigh of relief.
Then they saw the school bully pick up a spoon, scoop a spoonful of soup, stuff it in his mouth, and continue to bury his head to eat.
Schoolmates: ???
Qu Dazhuang knocked on the table with a spoon: “What are you all looking at? Get busy with eating!”
The surrounding area resumed its business and the cafeteria resumed its noise. Yue Li strode to the vacant seat and sat down, glaring at the eyes of her classmates.
“What’s the situation?”
Yue Li grimaned, “Who knows?”
The class leader, Chen Meng hesitated and said, “Maybe… Ji Rang has a stronger tolerance for special students.”
Well, after all, he helped Qi Ying the day before. In this way, Ji Rang was still very friendly and sensible.
At the other end, Ji Rang, the very friendly and sensible student, drank a few sips of soup and his hand holding the spoon gradually clenched. As if Qi Ying could hear, he scolded her: “Didn’t I warn you to stay away from Lao Tzu?”
Qu Dazhuang poked his head over: “Ah? What did you say?”
Ji Rang: “Fuck off.”
Qu Dazhuang: “…Oh.”
Qi yung, who had bowed her head to eat, saw the movement and raised her head subconsciously and looked at the boy.
The general looked so fierce.
Was the meal not tasty?
She cast her eyes on his plate, which clearly had the sweet and sour pork ribs Yue Li said was the best. That was weird.
Qi Ying thought about it, picked up her unused spoon, scooped one of the fish balls on her plate and put it on Ji Rang’s plate.
Ji Rang: ???
Qi Said said silently, “This is delicious.”
Ji Rang: “…”
He understood her mouthed words.
Her eyes were so terribly pure, as if to say, have a taste.
Ji Rang hesitated for a while and launched. He put the fish ball to the side with a chopstick and said to himself, “Fuck it all.”
He didn’t eat the fish ball, didn’t even finish his meal, but got up and left.
Qu Dazhuang wiped his mouth and quickly followed.
Qi Ying looked at his back and felt a little sad.
The general in this life seemed too difficult to reach.
Like he had thorns all over his body.
She lowered her head and slowly stuffed the remainder of her food into her mouth.
When Ji Rang left, Yue Li finally dared to come over. She didn’t even wipe the oil from her mouth before taking her phone out to type a message for Qi Ying: Ying Ying, Ji Rang never eats at the same table with other people!! The last person who tried sitting opposite of him had his teeth removed!
Qi Ying: ???
She covered her mouth in fear.
Sorry, she blamed the general!
The general is not bad at all. He even showed mercy to the men!
By the afternoon, the entire class knew about the school tyrant having lunch with the special classmate. After all, every move of top-class figures is gossip material during boring school hours.
In the women’s toilet, several girls gossiped fiercely:
The hero saved the beauty yesterday and had lunch today. Was this the rhythm of love?!
No way?! Ji Rang even looked down on Xue Manqing. Could he even look at that deaf person?
But the special classmate looks better than Xue Manqing.
Isn’t Ji Rang gay?
???
! !! !!
Hey, don’t look at me, it wasn’t me! Everyone said this in private, that he’s cold to girls. Tongtong confessed and he didn’t accept it. I heard Xue Manqing was rejected by him three or four times!
The toilet door in the back creaked open.
Xue Manqing came out from inside with a dark face.
Several gossiping girls stared at each other and hurried away.
The afternoon passed quickly.
At the end of the school day, Yu Yue sent a message to Qi Ying: “Sister, I am on class duty today. Wait for me in the classroom.”
Qi Ying replied to him: OK.
Yu Yue also said: I heard that Ji Rang let you sit at the same table during lunch today? Don’t approach him, he is really not a good guy.
Qi Ying ignored him this time.
Yue Li finished coping Qi Ying’s notes and said goodbye to her, “Ying Ying, I won’t wait with you. I have a speech for the first class tomorrow, so I have to go home early and review!”
Qi Ying nodded. Although she could not participate in the dictation of words the following day, she took out her English book and started reviewing it. An hour later, she received Yu Yue’s WeChat that asked her to go downstairs and wait for him at the green plants outside the teaching building.
Qi Ying packed her schoolbag, waved at her remaining classmates who were on cleaning duty, and left the classroom.
When descending the stairs, seven or eight students came out of the corner. There were boys and girls, smiling at the entrance to the hallway who asked her, “Hey, little mute, done with school?”
Qi Ying couldn’t hear but felt their smiles were unfriendly and frowned back at them.
The people next to her gathered around and blocked her way.
The girl at the front pushed her a bit, “Mute but can still seduce people. If you could talk, would you seduce all the boys in the whole school?”
A few boys laughed loudly, “Don’t speak nonsense, who would like a deaf and mute disabled person.”
The students who cleaned the hallway glanced over and one of the leader boys looked over and said, “Don’t be foolish!”
Those few eyes hurriedly withdrew. They were on the second-grade floor and the classes were almost emptied. Qi Ying didn’t know what they wanted to do and couldn’t get away. She cried out in a hurry.
Feeling at a loss, she glanced down the stairs at a familiar figure and her eyes lit up.
It was Ji Rang.
The people who surrounded her also saw him, and a look of fear appeared on their faces. However, they were astonished when Ji Rang looked like he didn’t see her and walked away without even squinting at the situation.
Several people breathed a sigh of relief, and the light in Qi Ying’s eyes faded instantly.
One of the boys sneered and reached out to scratch her face: “Don’t you think, this pitiful expression, it really attractive.”
Qi Ying suddenly pushed him really hard.
She had been standing quietly, allowing them to bully her so when she suddenly exerted force, the boy did not expect it. He stood on the step but leaned backwards losing his sense of balance and tripped over the steps, falling loudly.
A few people were shocked, the boy who fell yelled and was so annoyed that he got up quickly, raised his hand and moved to hit Qi Ying’s face.
With his arms midair, he was suddenly grabbed.
The boy turned around and yelled, “I..” when he saw the person behind him, he swallowed the rest of his words like a ghost.
Ji Rang stood there with a cold face, his long finger pinched the boy’s arm, and he found him backwards making the boy have a painful expression, and said only one word: “Go.”
The group of bad students ran away together.
Qi Ying’s tears that had gone back finally fell out.
Ji Rang looked down at her with an impatient expression on his face, “What are you crying for? Are you hurt?”
She cried even harder.
He touched his left and right pocket, there was nothing. Finally, he took out a math book from his school bag, tore off a page, crumpled it, folded it a few times and kneaded it before passing it to Qi Ying: “Don’t cry. When I see you, I would think I was bullying you.”
She took the crumpled paper and wiped the tears in the corner of her eyes.
Ji Rang asked again, “What about your little brother? Why didn’t he come to pick you up?”
Qi Ying stared at his lips, her eyes red.
Ji Rang couldn’t stand this look.
He looked back, rached out with his arms to carry her bag over and walked down. Qi Ying quickly followed him. Taking two steps, Ji Rang looked down.
She grabbed his shirt again.
The fingertips were bright and white, carefully twisting the small corners of his clothes, as if she was afraid he was unhappy and the strength was almost imperceptible.
Noticing his gaze, Qi Ying loosened her finger but hesitated to let go.
Ji Rang let his feet pause for a moment, took the sleeves of his school uniform hanging from his shoulders and passed it backwards.
He impatiently said, “Hold it.”

Rereading this/taking the time to TL it, I realize how scared Qi Ying must have been when she was surrounded. I felt so bad for her T.T
Alas, we finally get some interacting with Ji Rang. In the TL, he technically says “Take it” referring to his sleeves but I thought “Hold it” sounded cuter lmao
Anyway, Qi Ying is still baby and I love her. When she said her General was giving people mercy, I died.
Keke, I’ll prob update this once/twice a week depending on my workload. Mon/Wed? or Tue/Thur? Not sure yet. Will let you guys know once I determine it!
