Chapter 17.2 - About University 2 Part 2

Yang Han hugged the bear plushie and said, “You really deserve a good beating.”

Han Shi Yu: “That is called being romantic.”

Yang Han clicked her tongue, patted the plushie and said, “If I were dad, I would have set aside some time just to beat you up.”

Han Shi Yu ate another piece of candy, placed the book back and looked for another book on the shelf.

He said, “Did you think he never beat me up?”

Yang Han was delighted. Her tone went up in excitement and said, “He did beat you up, huh? What happened after that then?”

Han Shi Yu frowned, “You brat, why are you happy to hear that?”

There was a barbeque stand outside the east campus that tasted really, really, really good.

Three ‘really’s.

It was very popular among the students from nearby universities.

The female owner was from Urumqi, which was why the Shou Cheng University students who came from Xinjiang couldn’t exactly explain the saying ‘not all Xinjiang people could make mutton skewers’.

The female owner was really tall and had an enthusiastic, generous personality.

Han Shi Yu always patronized her business, so she was very fond of this good-looking and talkative freshman.

On this day, Han Shi Yu came on his own again. When the female owner saw that he was not accompanied by anyone, she laughed and said, “Go to your usual spot then. There’s someone there to accompany you.”

Han Shi Yu: “?”

When he got to his usual spot, there was indeed someone there who was also alone.

Barely making a narrow escape just a few days ago from this man’s hands, Han Shi Yu’s psychological trauma was instantly triggered the moment he saw him.

Han Shi Yu looked at Yang Mo.

Yang Mo looked up and accidentally locked gazes with Han Shi Yu.

The two of them: “……”

Yang Mo was drinking a bottle of coke.

Han Shi Yu braced himself and sat across him, asking curiously, “Don’t you drink alcohol?”

Yang Mo glanced at him and lightly knocked the plastic bottle onto the table.

Han Shi Yu: “…Help yourself.”

Yang Mo did not speak a word the entire time and only ate on his own. Han Shi Yu held it in at first but ultimately couldn’t take it anymore and asked, “That…Can I ask a favor from you?”

Yang Mo raised his gaze and looked at him.

Han Shi Yu added, “Senior?”

Yang Mo: “Get out of my sight.”

Han Shi Yu shrank backwards and frowned, “Haven’t we settled our debt already? What are you so mad for?”

Yang Mo: “Do I need to repeat myself?”

Yang Han chewed on a fruit candy and asked, “What’s wrong? Was dad in a bad mood?”

After Han Shi Yu had enough candies himself, he mercifully rewarded Yang Han with a piece and snapped the lid shut.

“That’s what I thought too. So I continued on with the questions and guess what happened?” Han Shi Yu said.

Yang Han shook her head as a sign that she couldn’t guess it.

Han Shi Yu: “He was scammed by the person who asked him to hack accounts. That person said it was 200 yuan per account hacked. I created 5 accounts and he hacked me 5 times. But that person insisted that it’s the same user so it was counted as once.”

Yang Han: “……”

""

Han Shi Yu: “In the end, your dad didn’t even ask for that 200 yuan. He planned to finish that meal and go beat that person up. Fortunately, I manage to stop him.”

Han Shi Yu said in shock, “No, no, no. Don’t do that, brother. This is originally a gray income anyway. If you fought someone and threw punches over this, do you think you can still stay in Shou Cheng University?”

Yang Mo stared at the culprit and frowned, “What does this have to do with you?”

Han Shi Yu moved a few steps forward, pushing some of the skewers on his side towards Yang Mo and said, “Finish listening to the favor I’m asking from you first…I’ll pay you money, so help me hack him back.”

Yang Mo replied lightly, “I don’t hack my clients within a month after taking a job from them.”

The corner of Han Shi Yu’s mouth twitched a little, “Why do you have such principles in doing something like this…”

Han Shi Yu tried persuading him, “He has no principles so let’s not talk about principles with him too. But rest assured, my commission is very principled.”

Listening to his repetitive use of the same words, Yang Mo frowned a little, “What do you want to do?”

Han Shi Yu explained, “I’m doing this because he talked shit about Shou Cheng University and kept on worshipping foreign cultures. Haven’t you read what he posted before?”

Yang Mo: “No.”

Han Shi Yu: “…Where did your principles go?”

Yang Mo: “It’s fine as long as you pay up.”

Han Shi Yu smiled helplessly and said, “Okay then. I’ll pay first and you do the thing later, alright?”

Yang Mo raised his gaze and looked at him again.

“We worked together after that. Yang Mo exploited the loophole in the system and posted that person’s account on the front page of the school forum’s entertainment section.” Han Shi Yu’s voice was full of nostalgia, “In the end, he was criticized and educated for his inappropriate remarks. Cheng Shao even personally stepped in with professional students to fix and upgrade the forum’s firewall.”

Han Shi Yu laughed a little before adding, “That firewall was really powerful. Your dad used various methods to break into it.”

The technical staffs at Ji Xun knew that Department Chief Yang had a famous saying –– “The strongest and most secure place in the world is the firewall at Shou Cheng University’s forum.”

Han Shi Yu continued, “Mr. Cheng knew it was Yang Mo who did it but he let him off the hook and only reported to the top management that there was a bug in the recommendation mechanism.”

“But he privately told this matter to Yang Mo’s counsellor, so the two of us were caught again.”

The counsellor never ever expected the method of holding hands and writing a reflection would work this well.

So well, that it made two enemies become teammates as they came together in wreaking havoc elsewhere.

After a pertinent evaluation on this behaviour and advising them to repent before it’s too late, this wonderful tradition was retained for future use.

Whenever there were passionate male students who had no place to waste their energy on and planned to use their fists to communicate, they would be made to squat in front of the office on the first floor of 16th office building in the east corridor.

While holding hands, they would write 800 words of praise for each other there.

This tradition was shortlisted for that year’s “Shou Cheng University’s Myth Collection”. Although it was unfortunate that it wasn’t chosen in the end, it still spread far and wide as a good story.
