Chapter 6-Bringing it onto himselfTranslator-zyzy  Editor-Aru

Shu Lan happily skipped off into LiCai Vocational High, Meng Ting took off her gauze beforehand, because she had to study, and replaced it with specially made glasses.

On Mondays, Seven High would hold a flag-raising ceremony, students from all the classes would have to participate.

After the students formed into lines as they chattered, the discipline teacher would inspect their grooming and attire.

Firstly is to inspect their school uniforms, Seven High had 2 types of uniforms and students would wear them interchangeably. One is white, the other is blue. Wearing the wrong colour was unacceptable. Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ NʘvᴇlFirᴇ.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

After that, they would inspect their student card.

Students that forget to bring along their student card, their class’s moral conduct points will be deducted. So their headteacher, Fan Hui Yin, was very strict on this matter, if the class’s moral conduct points were deducted, the student individually would be given relevant punishments.

Zhao Nuan Cheng and Meng Ting stood together, She was in front of Meng Ting.

The headmistress picked up the mic and started to speak, and the discipline teacher started to inspect the students in grade 7.

Starting with Class 1.

Two boys at the back of Class 1 messed up their school uniform and got pointed out instantly. Fan Hui Yin’s expression didn’t look good, this group of students had been warned so many times, but there’s always a few that still needed her to worry.

Zhao Nuan Cheng couldn’t stay still and wanted to secretly talk to Meng Ting, but the moment she turned back, she noticed that she didn’t have her student card hanging from her neck. Zhao Nuan Cheng flustered: “Ting Ting, where’s your student card? The teacher is coming.”

Meng Ting looked down: “I’ve lost it.”

“What are we going to do, forgetting to bring a student card would deduct 0.2 marks, teacher Fan would surely get angry.”

Meng Ting lightly bit on her lips, there’s no other way. She’d rather face the punishment than getting her student card back from Jiang Ren.

Even if she was desperate, the discipline teacher had already walked towards her: “Student, where is your student card?”

Everyone looked at her

Their faces surprised, after all, it is Meng Ting. Meng Ting almost never gets in trouble, she was also the first in class, because she was usually very quiet and subtle, her presence wasn’t really strong, but she was famous for being the teacher’s pet and to not let them worry.

But today, she was the person that forgot to bring her student card?

Fan Hui Yin stunned, her expressions clearly flustered, in the end, sighed.

Meng Ting studied hard after she was sponsored to study here, even if her eyes made studying inconvenient, she always got number 1, and she was her subject’s representative. Teacher Fan naturally was very fond of her, but rules are rules, after returning to class, she scolded all of the disobeying students.

Whispers could be heard from below: “It is normal for Liu Yun and Li Yi Long to violate the rules, but Meng Ting also contributed to this?”

“Maybe she just forgot to bring hers.”

“After school, wouldn’t she have to stay back and run too?”

“1500m, will her eyes be okay?”

“Don’t know”

Teacher Fan as expected said: “After school, all 3 of the students run around the school for 1500m, the class monitor is in charge of monitoring them.”

The class monitor was Guan Xiao Ye, her results in the class were quite good, she takes her role very seriously, and agreed to the teacher’s request.

Guan Xiao Ye with her school bag still on her: “Okay, you guys can start running now.”

Li Yi Long smiling: “Monitor, I don’t think Meng Ting should run, it isn’t very convenient because of her eyes. If she falls it won’t be a good thing, if everyone here didn’t say anything, no one would know.”

Guan Xiao Ye with a stern face: “No, everyone runs, she didn’t bring her student card.”

Liu Yun and Li Xiao Long tuts in response.

Meng Ting put down her walking stick: “It’s okay, I’ll be fine. Thank you, Li Yi Long.”

Li Yi Long felt embarrassed, he is one of the noisiest students in the class, and naturally didn’t hang with the good students in the class, even if he didn’t say anything, he did slightly look down on them.

Meng Ting was number 1 in class, but she had an aura that made the people around her feel comfortable.

The 3 of them started to run.

Meng Ting remembered this path. Because after school, there would be basketball competitions in the field, so they were arranged to run there too. In between Seven High and Li Cai was a wide path, just right for running. 1500m wasn’t short, for weak bodies, it was quite challenging.

Meng Ting ran 800 m, her breathing started to slightly hurt.

She rearranged her rhythm and continued running.

Her eyes weren’t in a very good state, so she took the run slowly and steadily. By that time, the others were already done and had long gone.

Jiang Ren and He Jun Ming were on their bikes passing by, they spotted Meng Ting right away.

She was wearing Seven High’s school uniform, she should’ve blended right into the crowd of people, but weirdly, he spotted her in a heartbeat.

She was running with all her might, her hair in a ponytail, raised in a subtle arch.

Her fair skinny neck showing.

He Jun Ming saw as Jiang Ren stopped his bike, and followed him over. As soon as he saw Meng Ting’s slow movements, he burst in laughter: “Is she running or just shifting around, even, I can walk faster than her.”

Jiang Ren couldn’t help but smile along.

Fang Tan gave it some thought: “Come to think of it, the people in Seven high who run here, are those that violated the school rules.”

Now, the both got curious.

“What rules would she have violated?”

He Jun Ming cluelessly guessed: “Juvenile dating?”

Jiang Ren looked back, and slapped his head: “God damn juvenile dating, you think she’s like you.” He Jun Ming looked confused, why did he suddenly take a beating from him, can’t he just make some guesses?

Jiang Ren’s silver hair dazzled, chewing his bubble gum, he randomly picked a guy: “You, go take a look.”

The boy hurriedly ran over upon his orders, after a while, he came back snickering: “Boss Ren, I asked the girl over there, is there something wrong with Seven High, you had to run if you wore the wrong uniform, or if you forgot your student card. Our school’s better, what a dumb rule!”

The smile on Jiang Ren’s face slowly disappeared.

His black pupils showing hints of coldness, he got down from his ride and walked over.

This time, He Jun Ming wouldn’t be the one to ask stupid questions, Fang Tan stepped in and asked: “Boss Ren, what’s the matter?”

He didn’t look like he was angry, but he sure wasn’t happy either. Wasn’t everything just fine a few seconds ago?

After Meng Ting finished her run, she was already breathless.

Guan Xiao Ye complained: “Why are you so slow, I’ve waited for so long.”

Meng Ting softly puffed: “I’m sorry, for wasting your time.”

Guan Xiao Ye packed her bags and left.

Meng Ting was exhausted after the 1500m run, she didn’t mind the dirty rocks beside her, she hugged her knee and sat down, trying to catch her breath. She knows 3 years without any training, her once good body stamina weakened.

During her dancing days, even running 2000m wouldn’t make her feel so bad.

Finally smoothing her breath, a dark shadow appeared over her head, and something was put around her neck, it was her student card.

Meng Ting looked up and saw Jiang Ren.

Jiang Ren with one hand in his pocket, also looked down at her, expressionless, he looked slightly frustrated.

“Meng Ting.”

She frantically stood up, slightly confused: “Yes?”

“I owe you this, why are you so dumb.”

Meng didn’t know what to say, He never passed any one of his subjects in school, and he’s here calling her dumb. She kept quiet for a while, under his frustrated emotions, she softly replied: “Oh, Sorry.”

She understands that Jiang Ren is unreasonable and overbearing, even if she didn’t know what angered him, just don’t push him any further. 

His frustration had no one to unleash on, slowly died down.

“Why do you hate me so much, do you despise me?” He already noticed that Meng Ting didn’t really like talking to him.

He heard that she’s the smartest student in Grade 7 Class (1), Class (1) was formed just so students could aim for the top universities. Students like them with the best results, always looked down at students like him who didn’t study hard, smoke, skipped class, get in fights and dated young, in their eyes, he was just a rich gangster.

Even someone like Sheng Yu Qing would have a sense of superiority as a good student in Seven High.

Meng Ting didn’t speak, she looked down like she secretly agreed.

Jiang Ran laughed coldly: “God damn it, who are you to look down on me, at least I’m completely healthy.”

He was mocking her blindness.

Meng Ting wasn’t angry, her eyes would recover a little after a month anyways.

She lightly bit on her lips, took up her walking stick, and started walking towards the direction home. Her pace was slow, one step after the other, but he felt like a knife was pushed in his heart.

Jiang Ren looked at her figure from behind, and hardly kicked the rock she just sat on just now.

God damn it! Who cares if you like me or not.

She’s just an ugly and dumb blind girl.

But the more he thought that way, the worse he felt within.

The year of the affair, he told himself. The more talented and pure the girl seemed to be, the more cruel and heartless she’ll turn out to be.

So looking at girls like Sheng Yu Qing offering herself to him, she looked like a clown to him.

He wasn’t like his stupid and passionately loyal dad.

He gave her his money, his heart, but got cheated on in return.

He’ll never like girls like these. 

Pretty, talented, hardworking, over the years, turned into the type of girls he hated the most.

Not to mention, Meng Ting had nothing to do with beauty…

He Jun Ming waited long for Jiang Ren to return and decided to go look for him.

Jiang Ren was smoking as he leaned against the wall.

The girls that passed by all secretly looked at him.

Softly and excitedly discussing: “Ah, so that’s Jiang Ren……”

“Quite handsome.”

“Don’t think about it, I heard he’s super fierce……”

“Shh, someone’s coming.”

He Jun Ming glanced at them: “Want to die?”

The girls scurried away in shock.

He Jun Ming only walked over: “Boss Ren, are we still going gaming?”

Jiang Ren unbotheredly said: “Sure.”

“Did the little blind girl make you angry, how about I……”

Jiang Ren suddenly looked up, turning to leave first: “Mention her one more time and I’ll kill you.”

She already told him that she didn’t like him. If he looked for Meng Ting one more time, then he’s just bringing it on himself.
