Chapter 49.1
Editor: Princess
“Are you crazy?” Ning Sheng was hugged until his feet left the ground. “Let me go!”
The feeling of suspension and loss of control forced him to grasp Xu Ling’s collar tightly.
“Who taught him to apologize like that?” Li Haoyue, who was following behind, asked Lu Peng.
“He improvised it.” Lu Peng said. “Princess isn’t the little princess from before, and last time they fought, princess apologized first, so Dog Xu is fearless.”
“It’s fine.” The homeroom teacher told the dorm manager from not far away. “I’ve never seen bullying where someone lets others hit them.”
“That’s true.” The dorm manager said.
“Ah! Don’t pull my ear!!” Xu Ling screamed in pain. “I was wrong!”
The homeroom teacher: “…”
Ning Sheng broke free, rushed into the dormitory, stuffed two pieces of clothing and a card into his backpack, tried to pull the door twice without success, kicked the door in frustration, switched to pushing, and went out.
“Where are you going?” Xu Ling shouted.
Ning Sheng: “To buy a house.”
Xu Ling: “…”
“Why buy a house? The dormitory is great, it has a human touch.” Xu Ling raised his hand and precisely grabbed him.
“It smells like dog.” Ning Sheng stepped on Xu Ling’s foot. “I can’t live here anymore.”
Then he broke free and walked towards the exit of the dormitory area.
“Serves you right.” Li Haoyue said. “I told you not to bully him.”
Lu Peng: “You also pinched his face.”
“I saw him pouting all the time, so I wanted to tease him.” Xu Ling said.
“How would you react if I pinched your face?” Lu Peng asked.
Xu Ling: “I’d beat you into Pei Qi and send you to fight with it for food.”
“Exactly, Ning Ning is already very gentle.” Lu Peng said.
**
Today wasn’t Friday, hence boarding students couldn’t leave school without a commuter pass.
Ning Sheng stood at the school gate feeling desperate.
But going back to the dormitory would be embarrassing.
He walked around the security room then stood by the school wall.
This height was something Xu Ling had taught him about, so it was easy for him to climb.
He moved five bricks, however just as he was moving the sixth, he looked up to see three people sitting on the wall, all extending their hands to him.
“Come on.” Xu Ling smiled.
He handed Xu Ling a brick and even wiped his hands on Xu Ling’s sleeve.
Then he grabbed Lu Peng’s hand and climbed up with his help.
Xu Ling: “…”
In their classroom, the math teacher was using the evening self-study session to explain problems.
“I’m tired, let me drink some water.” The teacher said. “For this problem, let’s invite the first-place student from this exam to explain.”
“Teacher, the first-place student has skipped class.” A student below the podium said.
The teacher’s eyelid twitched: “Then the second-place student can explain.”
“Teacher, the second-place student has also skipped class.” The student below the podium said again.
The teacher frowned: “Then the third-place student can explain.”
“Teacher, the third-place student has also skipped class.” The student below the podium continued.
The math teacher became angry.
“What’s wrong with your class!” The teacher raged. “Everyone is skipping class. What does this indicate? This indicates…”
“It indicates you can get into the top three without attending your class.” Someone said from below.
The whole class laughed.
The math teacher: “…”
The math teacher: “I’ll explain it myself.”

Ning Sheng wandered through the city streets aimlessly, followed by three noisy people.
“Dog Xu keeps glaring at me.” Lu Peng said.
Li Haoyue: “Glare back at him.”
“I can’t, I have monolids, so I can’t open them wide enough.” Lu Peng said.
“The high school boys from Number Nine Middle School are so handsome.” A passerby murmured.
“They really are.” Another person said.
“Shouldn’t they be in evening self-study at this hour?” Someone else said. “Why aren’t they studying hard?”
Ning Sheng’s footsteps faltered.
Right, he could skip class himself, but why did he bring three others?
He shouldn’t ruin Xu Ling like this.
“You all go back to class.” He told them.
“If we go back now, we’ll definitely be punished to stand, and there’s no class to attend anyway.” Xu Ling extended his arms and placed them on Ning Sheng’s shoulders. “Since we’re already out, let’s go have fun.”
Ning Sheng turned his gaze away, not looking at him.
“I’m not going.” Ning Sheng said.
“You can go out with Bai Ming and his group, but not with us?” Xu Ling asked. “It’s almost Lu Peng’s birthday.”
“My birthday is next month.” Lu Peng said.
Xu Ling: “You should have been born earlier.”
“Where are we going to play?” Ning Sheng asked coldly.
Half an hour later, at the foot of a mountain on the edge of the city.
“You’re all crazy.” Ning Sheng said definitively.
Then he turned to run, but was pulled back by Xu Ling, who held him by the waist.
“We have a saying in Qing’an Town.” Xu Ling said. “There’s no unhappiness that climbing a mountain once can’t cure.”
“Haven’t you climbed enough in Qing’an Town?!” Ning Sheng asked in desperation.
“What mountain is this?” Ning Sheng asked.
Xu Ling: “Qingling.”
Ning Sheng stood on tiptoe, jumped onto Xu Ling’s back, and was caught and carried properly by Xu Ling.
“I’m climbing ‘Xu Ling’, I’m done climbing.” Ning Sheng said. “Let’s go back quickly, my butt hurts.”
“Was it from yesterday’s fall?” Xu Ling asked.
Ning Sheng: “What do you think?!”
Xu Ling carried Ning Sheng on his back, walking along the small path toward the lights.
“I originally wanted to take you to see the sunrise.” Xu Ling said. “To give you a real golden sun.”
Ning Sheng said impatiently: “I already have one.”
“Then let’s go eat barbecue.” Xu Ling said. “To improve our diet.”
