Chapter 10

When returning to the house, Sun Wenqu asked again, "Is your surname really Fang?"

"Go ahead," Sun Wenqu said, "and then hang it at the head of the bed?"

"Isn't it? Are you addicted to climbing over the wall?" Sun Wenqu opened the door and saw Fang Chi, who was sweating profusely outside.

He recalled Li Bowen's words and couldn't help but frown

"If you are not convinced, just hold it in." Sun Wenqu fell back onto the sofa

I know, just drinking mixed drinks. Sun Wenqu stood by the window drinking yogurt, while General Huang practiced rock climbing hanging from his pants

"You haven't exercised at all. You used to go to the gym every day, didn't you? At least when you were in the mountains, you were still active. But now that you're back, you just stay at home every day..." Li Bowen said with great distress.

What are you doing? Fang Chi asked

"Come on! Are you being unreasonable?" Luo Peng laughed.

"No one." Fang Chi said this and continued to walk forward.

"Yes," Ma Liang nodded slightly, "You dog... man-man."

Why are you suddenly asking this? Sun Wenqu gently pinched the cat's ears

"Four characters, huh? Let me think..." Luo Peng said

"Are you suffering from facial nerve paralysis?" Sun Wenqu asked

Stop pretending to be foolish with me, Zhang Jian and his group spread the word as soon as they arrived at school in the evening, "I frowned when I heard it, and I just knew you were going to beat someone up"

Brother Liang, you are mistaken, " Luo Peng laughed, " You need to encourage Qiu, he has returned particularly dejected this time.

It was just past 6 o'clock when I got home. Ma Liang had a dinner engagement that evening, so I did not accompany him for the meal. Upon entering the house, my stomach, which had hardly eaten anything all day, let out a growl.

"It's not much, I've been keeping track of it all. Let's settle it together at the end of the month," Fang Chi said, "I won't cheat you out of your money."

"What is going on with you? Are you running for your life?" Sun Wenqu was taken aback.

"Alright, just say what you want to do," Sun Wenqu interrupted him, turning around to grab General Huang, who had already climbed onto his back, and placed him on his shoulder. "Don't say you're going to climb a mountain; I'm not going."

"When will you finish your escape and come to cook?" Sun Wenqu frowned and said, "Do you have any sense of service? There is still a salary on the contract."

As soon as he dragged Zhang Jian out, a few people followed him out of the classroom, seemingly ready to lend a hand. Therefore, Fang Chi did not hesitate, loosened his grip, and without waiting for Zhang Jian to steady himself, he directly kicked him in the stomach.

This morning I dreamt of a rooster crowing, and I woke up quite early. Feeling rather restless, I prepared all my writing materials, but in the end, I couldn't write a single word.

For a novice like Sun Wenqu, this was not particularly easy. Even following the coach's instructions on where to grip with the left hand, where to grip with the right hand, how to push with the left foot, and how to step with the right foot, it took a considerable amount of effort to finally get up there

"I invite you to have spicy hot pot," Liang Xiaotao said with a smile

"Crow Mountain." As soon as Luo Peng saw his interest, he immediately moved closer.

"What mountain is that?" he asked.

Facing the rock wall, with the legs spread approximately at an angle of 80 degrees, ascend to the edge of the cliff, and sit back with the body, forming an angle of about 100 degrees with the legs

Sun Wenqu was taken aback for a moment, and after a while, he finally said, "Whatever."

"Have you played it?" Sun Wenqu asked Ma Liang.

"This is just like writing or painting; to excel in a craft, one must first sharpen their tools," Luo Peng said. "Hey, have you been writing lately? If you don't show me your pot, can I ask for a few characters?"

Half an hour. Fang Chi seemed to be running

I am not going to school tonight," Fang Chi said, panting. After a pause, he added, "What do you want to eat?"

Sun Wenqu dialed Fang Chi's number, and after a long wait, the call was finally answered. Then he heard Fang Chi's breathless voice saying: "Hello?"

It appears to be a school badge, but the school name and grade are obscured by Fang Chi's finger. Sun Wenqu noticed the name above, Fang Chi, along with a rather serious photograph.

"If you have the ability, take action; if you don't, keep your mouth shut," Fang Chi pointed at Zhang Jian, "If I hear you again, it won't take me a minute to deal with you."

"It is facial paralysis," Sun Wenqu looked at him and asked, "Can you smile?"

"Stop meowing, your slave will get jealous soon. Didn't you scratch him the other day?" Sun Wenqu walked over to the client in the living room and heard the sound of someone running outside.

It has been three years...

He and Li Bowen cannot be said to know each other well; they have only known each other for about twenty years. Li Bowen knows that he enjoys being idle, but he is also afraid of being truly idle.

As he was running, he suddenly jumped in, propelled by inertia. "Don't you have a security screen installed in your house? Entering your place is as easy as walking into a shopping mall"

He mainly loses weight by spending more time outdoors, the coach said as he walked towards the formal rock wall. "Why don't you give it a try? Start with the easiest one."

Understood

Well, I played with him a few times before, " Ma Liang tugged at the safety belt under his pants, " You can't always play with this thing, it chokes the balls.

At the barbecue, Sun Wenqu did not eat much; his stomach was just right. He did not dare to eat too much of these things, and even drank very little beer. He pulled Ma Liang over to go rock climbing.

Ah," Liang Xiaotao sighed softly, "You two used to have such a good relationship, and now it has come to this. It's quite a pity.

"Hey," Liang Xiaotao nudged him with her arm, "Is beating Zhang Jian about that matter?"

"Are you making a horror film?" Upon hearing this name, Sun Wenqu felt a chill run down his spine.

This is the coach's original words. Sun Wenqu listened to it once and could basically memorize it, but putting it into practice is quite troublesome

"Remember the method I just taught you," the coach said

Fang Chi turned his head and stared at him

"Which matter?" Fang Chi glanced at her.

"I don't want to eat," Fang Chi said, as he strolled forward with her.

"I didn't hit her," Sun Wenqu raised his eyes to look at him, "Do I look like someone who hits women?"

He must be here to lose weight. Sun Wenqu said, avoiding the coach's hand, that this unintentional press made one of his legs feel weak.

"You have a bias against homosexuality," Liang Xiaotao turned her head to look at him, "I actually find Lin Wei and her friends who constantly talk about real people quite annoying as well, but... your reaction was indeed quite unexpected for me. Sometimes I can't help but wonder if you really..."

"A group of promiscuous individuals," Sun Wenqu said with his eyes closed, "What does it have to do with me"

Thus, he chose this method of striking and then retreating; by the time the people from Class 6 realized what had happened, he had already returned to the excited protective circle of Class 1

Although Zhang Jian is not particularly well-liked in his own class, if Fang Chi, a student from another class, directly barges into the classroom to confront someone, there would certainly be a few individuals in any class who would band together to stand up for him

This group of people is primarily here for food, with barbecue and beer being the main objectives. About twenty individuals, all familiar faces, have already completed the preparations. The climbing on the nearby rock wall serves as a digestive activity.

Although it was forced, it still left Sun Wenqu in a daze for quite a while

Am I really that irritable?" Fang Chi smiled.

He does not wish to fight, especially not with several people, at least not at this moment

Sun Wenqu could not help but laugh: "It's quite big, really"

Get lost! Sun Wenqu was so amused that he exclaimed, "What a damn thing to say!"

"It's about the same." Fang Chi said

I still cannot write it now

"Oh, I find you particularly amusing; the moment I see you, I just want to laugh," Sun Wenqu said with a smile.

"You look like a perfectly normal child, how could you end up hanging out with Fang Ying?" Sun Wenqu raised one leg and rested it on the coffee table, "At just 14 years old, you should be learning properly."

But it has been a long time since anyone has asked him what he would like to eat just to prepare a meal for him

I just..." Fang Chi furrowed his brows, paused for a moment before saying, "I feel disgusted"

As for whether anyone will come to cause trouble tomorrow, that is another matter. It is unlikely that anyone from Class Six would specifically come to confront Zhang Jian after a night has passed.

Sun Wenqu smiled and said, "Have you finally realized it?"

"Get lost." Sun Wenqu made him laugh.

Oh," Sun Wenqu smiled and said, "Hearing this from the mouth of a swindler is somewhat touching.

However, this time upon returning, I truly feel a lack of enthusiasm for anything, and only taking a stroll with Fang Chi can still bring me some joy

I will not have porridge today; I want to eat stir-fried dishes. Moreover, you still need to come over to clean up after your master. If you take half an hour to arrive, you will say you need to go to school again. Sun Wenqu listened carefully to the commotion on Fang Chi's side. By all accounts, this kid does not seem like someone who would cause trouble, but right now, he is running away in a way that truly resembles fleeing for his life

... ... Hmm. Fang Chi responded.

"Why have you suddenly become so positive?" Sun Wenqu sighed and said, "Alright, I will go all out."

When it was Ma Liang's turn, Li Bowen and several others came over to cheer for him from below, creating a particularly impressive atmosphere, which made Ma Liang slip twice in excitement.

Sun Wenqu followed the coach for half a day without getting a chance to officially climb, but the coach seemed quite decent; otherwise, he would have lost patience long ago

I thought you wanted to stay overnight," said Ma Liang

"If I had known it was going to be like this, I would have come earlier," Sun Wenqu said as he flopped down onto the lounge chair that had already been set up next to the barbecue grill. "You make it sound like you guys are about to conquer Mount Everest."

"Are you hungry? Have you finished lunch?" Sun Wenqu glanced at the bowl placed on the tea table, which was already empty. The cat litter he bought in the morning also looked used. "Just wait, the little one can really eat."

Fang Chi stopped, and Liang Xiaotao rode up on her small electric scooter, saying: "Hey, you were walking so fast. I turned around to watch the excitement, and you disappeared."

"Good!" Luo Peng happily patted him again, "I said you were unwilling to go, but Bowen said you would go. Let me talk to you about it; he really understands you."

Ah? Fang Chi looked at him

Is that alright?" Luo Peng looked at Sun Wenqu.

"Toad Skill, inheritance, successor," Ma Liang patted his shoulder, "Toad Spirit."

"I just feel that you are particularly self-righteous," Fang Chi said

It is indeed quite dispiriting

This punch was quite powerful, much heavier than the one delivered to Sun Wenqu that day. Zhang Jian, who was originally leaning on someone and had not yet stood up, immediately let out a cry and frantically tried to dodge backward, his pitch rising by eight degrees compared to before

"The old are still vigorous." Li Bowen said on the side

He is just a snake, " said Ma Liang, " it is still a snake that is quickly preparing for hibernation, just give up.

Speaking of photographs, Sun Wenqu recalled the silhouette of a tall figure with long arms and legs that he had seen on the display wall of the club. He turned his head and glanced to the side, but none of the coaches seemed to fit that description.

Oh. Sun Wenqu responded.

"I am not ... ... I am ... ..." Fang Chi furrowed his brows, "I ... ..."

Fang Chi said nothing, put down Mr. Huang, went into the kitchen, took out the plastic bags from the supermarket to pack the cat litter, and went out to throw it away

As Fang Chi walked out of the school, he thought about giving Sun Wenqu a call to inquire about General Huang's situation. However, after some consideration, he decided against it. It was evident that Sun Wenqu had a fondness for cats, and General Huang also seemed quite pleased with him, so it was likely that there would be no issues.

Sun Wenqu smiled but did not speak

"Do you know why your stomach hurts as soon as you come back?" Li Bowen sighed on the phone

"How do I get down?" Sun Wenqu asked, his hand feeling a bit sore as he hooked onto the stone and inquired.

"You usually exercise as well, right?" The coach finally finished explaining all the key points. I casually pressed on his leg, "It's quite muscular. When you go up later, it should be easier than when Luo Ge just played.

President Huang meowed a few times while holding onto his pant leg. He bent down and picked President Huang up, strolling slowly around the room: "You are, after all, a former wandering president, and you still have a bit of a masculine side, so why are you being so coy..."

Fang Chi remained silent; his relationship with Xiao Yiming had indeed been quite good in the past, as they played basketball together, attended school together, and engaged in casual conversations together

The community security patrols twenty-four hours a day, and besides, there is nothing worth stealing here," Sun Wenqu said upon seeing Fang Chi carrying a supermarket bag. "Did you go grocery shopping?"

He felt somewhat frustrated just thinking about how General Huang transformed from a domineering CEO who would swat at cat food to a softie who could only rub against the fur of the cat after meeting Sun Wenqu.

Then you eat, " Fang Chi said straightforwardly, " I took the cat away today.

"Which one should we go to? The one recommended by Xu Zhou?" Fang Chi asked

Rock climbing appears easy at first glance, but it becomes somewhat perplexing when one actually attempts it

The facts have already proven it, "Liang Xiaotao clicked her tongue twice, then lowered her voice, "Did Xiao Yiming say anything? I noticed he seemed quite down today."

Fang Chi's words suddenly made him feel a bit sentimental, what would you like to eat

"Did you hit or not?" Fang Chi asked again

He ran over? He reached out to unlock the gate, but before he could touch the switch, a thud echoed from the courtyard, followed by a knock on the door.

I see, "Liang Xiaotao gathered her hair, smiled, and changed her tone, patting his shoulder, 'Forget it, there's nothing much to say about this matter. How about you treat me to some spicy hot pot? Spicy tofu, spicy broccoli, spicy beef balls... Oh dear, I'm drooling!"

I have no prejudice against him, " Fang Chi said.

"Next time, buy a set of equipment," Luo Peng said, looking at the shoes on Sun Wenqu's feet. "The shoes they matched are not suitable."

No, no, it's not a dog man," Ma Liang thought for a moment, raised his index finger and touched his nose in front of him. After he opened his eyes, he said, "It's a dog, a dog man, one, you are single.

Fang Chi ignored him, entered the restroom, and came out in less than a minute. Looking at him, he asked, "Did you hit her or not?"

Prepare the cat food for General Huang, Sun Wenqu took a shower, and after the shower, he felt even hungrier. Looking at the time, Fang Chi should have finished school by now

It was quite a relief to come down, and he let out a sigh. The cool weather had made him sweat profusely, and as he turned his head, he saw Ma Liang laughing.

After finishing his words, he turned around and walked back. By the time the people from Class 6 managed to extricate themselves from the chaos and catch up, those from his class who were watching the commotion had already run to the middle of the corridor

Fang Chi! Someone called out to him from behind, it was Liang Xiaotao

After that, there was nothing more to worry about. It sounded like the prelude to a noisy fight, but when students from two classes encountered each other in the corridor, it was basically just verbal sparring. There were too many people, and the onlookers blended seamlessly with the unclear target, making it impossible for a fight to break out

This day was quite lively, filled with eating and drinking, climbing rocks. In the afternoon, when Sun Wenqu returned to the city with Ma Liang, he felt drowsy in the car

Mr. Huang, with both hands clasped in a farmer-like manner, was dozing on the sofa. Upon hearing him enter, he jumped down from the sofa and rubbed against his feet.

"Let's talk about it later," Sun Wenqu said, "There is no capability, but the demeanor is quite impressive"

Bitter melon. Fang Chi stepped out again and took the yellow general from Sun Wenqu's hands

"Sure," Fang Chi said as he carried the cat litter box towards the bathroom, "It's just that there's nothing amusing about watching you."

"Where to climb, which hill?" Ma Liang opened a beer and took a sip, "Behind my house, there is... there is a slope, you can go there."

Although not much force was used, Zhang Jian, with his thin and frail build, was immediately kicked and fell onto the people behind him. Fang Chi followed up with another punch, striking him in the face

"Fang Chi, it's not that I'm being nosy, I know you don't like to hear this," Liang Xiaotao hesitated for a moment, "I think you shouldn't be the kind of person who holds a bias against Xiao Yiming. At the very least, you should be able to neither support nor resent him. I really..."

"First clean the litter," Sun Wenqu pointed to the cat litter, then took out his wallet, "How much is the cost of the vegetables?"

"I won't go!" Upon hearing this, Sun Wenqu felt as if the entire mountain was filled with colorful scarves waving in the air, "I won't go."

Fang Chi half-dragged, half-pulled Zhang Jian into the corridor, where Zhang Jian struggled fiercely, incoherently howling something.

"Hurry up, you can climb up using your mouth," Sun Wenqu tore off the safety belt and rope from his body, "I'll applaud you. Did Bowen bring a camera? I'll take a couple of pictures for you."

Well, since you said anything, I will go buy groceries. Otherwise, I would have to go out again. Fang Chi tossed his backpack against the wall and entered the kitchen. Let's make stuffed meat, as I happen to have some minced meat from yesterday.

The coach who was organizing equipment for Sun Wenqu is not very old, probably just in his early twenties. He said with a serious expression, "Not really, how big of an egg would that be?"

It is said to be a ridge, but in fact, it is a mountain range with particularly beautiful scenery. In the past, photographers would often visit, and later, it became a destination for hiking uncles and aunts

"Hmm, just across the street." Liang Xiaotao pointed to the small shop across the street

"Hmm," Fang Chi took a card out of his backpack, walked up to him and waved it, "I am called Fang Chi."

It was very beautiful. I went there once, but the guide was inadequate and we didn't reach the end; we didn't see the entire waterfall gorge. Luo Peng looked regretful and said, "This time we need to find a local guide... So, how about it? Are we going?"

How can a swindler who has signed a contract to sell himself due to debt be so arrogant, even demanding reminders for cooking!

Sun Wenqu smiled and glanced over at Li Bowen, who was sweetly grilling skewers with Zhao He.

"Who did I hit!" Xu Zhou was the first to rush over, excitedly asking this question. This kid thrives on chaos, and his greatest hope is to create a mess with Class Six.

"Go on then," Sun Wenqu yawned, "Just because we have nothing serious to do all day, we still need to be spirited when we play. Call me in advance."

"Oh, what should we use for brewing?" Sun Wenqu inquired

Mr. Huang meowed again

"No need to say anything, just thank you. What is there to discuss?" Fang Chi said

"The summit of Everest is out of reach," Luo Peng handed him and Ma Liang two cans of beer, "but while autumn is not yet over, we are indeed planning to climb a mountain once. How about it, would you like to join us?"

After hanging up the phone, he walked into the study and stood in front of the desk

"I haven't picked up a pen in a long time."

"Do not go climbing; let's wait until you recover before we go," Li Bowen said with a smile. "Rock climbing, I've mentioned it several times; at least show some consideration. Liangzi, despite being so busy, said he would come if you did."

Ma Liang came to pick him up and took him to the location. It was only then that Sun Wenqu realized that this time they were not going to some club, but to an outdoor base of the club, which was very large and equipped with everything for mountain climbing, river tracing, adventure camping, barbecuing, and rafting

Oh. Sun Wenqu looked at him

He is quite familiar with this phrase; whenever a group of people goes out to eat, they will always ask, what do you want to eat, what should we eat, what dishes should we have, which restaurant should we go to

Liang Xiaotao's home is in the same direction as his. Sometimes, when he does not want to walk, he asks Liang Xiaotao to take him for a while. However, today he just wants to take a walk.

"Listen to me!" Luo Peng gave him a light pat, "If we go, we will take the adventure route, which is newly developed and not in the same direction as the senior hiking group."

"Who?" Sun Wenqu asked as he hugged General Huang, who was jumping onto the sofa, "Your mother?"

"Brother Sun," the coach gave a thumbs up beside him, "not bad!"

"I do not eat bitter melon." Sun Wenqu furrowed his brow
