“This... this Dwarf Winter Melon is just too much! Just because she got first place in the whole grade, she has to flaunt it like this,” Yang Qianfan said, staring in disbelief at Zhu Hui's behavior, shivering from the cold, goosebumps spreading all over her body.
“Yeah! This morning, she told me she didn’t even care about getting first place, but now... she... she’s acting like this... it’s terrifying!” Wang Yuhan added, rubbing her arms as if trying to warm herself, feeling frost creeping over her skin.
“Well, since this Dwarf Winter Melon is so vain, I’ll let her embarrass herself,” Yang Qianfan declared, grinning mischievously. She picked a fruit from a nearby branch and threw it hard at Zhu Hui, hitting her squarely on the head.
“Ouch—” Zhu Hui exclaimed instinctively as she rubbed her head. Turning around and seeing no one behind her, she became cautious, her eyes alert like a cat’s, ready to flee at any moment. “Who attacked me from behind? Show yourself,” she called out into the empty air.
“It’s me! Look up, vain Dwarf Winter Melon!” Yang Qianfan shouted gleefully from atop the Cloud Ladder, waving at her with a triumphant laugh.
Zhu Hui looked up and saw Yang Qianfan and Wang Yuhan sitting high on the Cloud Ladder, laughing uncontrollably. The expression on her face was a mix of embarrassment and humiliation, feeling as exposed as if she were naked.
“You... how could you two be here?” Zhu Hui stammered, clearly flustered.
“If we weren’t here, wouldn’t we miss this perfect opportunity to see you make a fool of yourself?” Yang Qianfan teased loudly to ensure Zhu Hui could hear her.
“I... I...” Zhu Hui struggled to respond under their mocking gaze. At a loss for words and feeling her face flush with anger and embarrassment, she stomped her feet in frustration before turning and running away with her head down.
After the parent-teacher meeting concluded, Nanhua High School finally returned to its usual calm. Laughter and chatter echoed through every corner of the school once again. On Saturday, after finishing a game of mahjong at Zhang Ming's house, Yang Qianfan joined their group to hang out at D Bar. The business at D Bar was surprisingly good that weekend. Young couples embraced and kissed; whether they had slender waists or fuller figures, everyone danced without regard for size. The men’s bellies pressed against the women’s chests in a chaotic rhythm that shook the ground. A DJ with long hair spoke in a standard Hong Kong-Taiwan accent, energetically stirring up the atmosphere—one moment asking everyone to raise their left hands and the next their right hands. The dance floor was a surreal scene reminiscent of a lavish banquet from ancient tales where all sorts of creatures gathered to revel in joy.
Yang Qianfan didn’t like dancing; instead, she sat aside drinking. At that moment, a stylish hostess approached her with a friendly greeting: “Fan Ge! Long time no see! What brings you here today?”
Yang Qianfan looked up and recognized the enchanting Xiao Yang.
“Are you working here?”
"Yes! It's just sitting on a soft platform."
"Is that so?" Yang Qianfan chuckled lazily, took a sip of his drink, and reproached her with a hint of anger, "Last time, you used my name to take down that guy next to Zhu Hui, didn't you?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang's smile instantly vanished, her expression darkening as she retorted defiantly, "Whose name was it? When did I ever use yours to take down that guy?"
"Then answer me this: was that guy taken down by you? I believe Zhu Hui wouldn't lie to me."
"Zhu Hui? That foul woman again..."
"Shut up—" Yang Qianfan suddenly interrupted her, his face turning extremely grim as he shouted, "If I hear you insult her or harm her again, I won't let you off the hook."
Xiao Yang was so frightened that she dared not speak further, lowering her head and nodding submissively. "I did bring people to take down that foul guy, but it was Hu Yuanji who asked me to do it. It has nothing to do with me."
"I figured as much," Yang Qianfan said dismissively as he took another sip of his drink. Confused, he asked, "But Hu Yuanji doesn't even know Tang Hui. Why would he send you to take down that foul guy?"
"He wanted to kill the chicken to scare the monkey."
"Killing the chicken to scare the monkey? I see." Yang Qianfan nodded thoughtfully. Just then, someone suddenly appeared in his line of sight. He abruptly realized it and set down the bottle, squinting his eyes to focus and see clearly.
"Am I seeing things?"
Xiao Yang turned back to follow his gaze and asked in confusion, "What’s wrong? Do you know Gangzi too?"
“Gangzi? What Gangzi? He is the president of our school's student council, Luo Minggang. He's a good student; how could he possibly be here?” Yang Qianfan looked at him from a distance, puzzled.
“The president of the student council? No way! He’s the backbone of our operations here.”
“Backbone?”
“All the drugs we have come from him.”
“What? He supplies you with drugs?” Yang Qianfan exclaimed, nearly shouting in surprise.
Xiao Yang nodded, “Yeah! I’ve never bought drugs from him, so I’m not familiar with him; I just know who he is.”
“I never expected that! The president of the student council would do something like this—interesting!” Yang Qianfan said with a cold smirk directed at his back.
