Chapter 6, Fierce Competition (Part 2)
Mingming was much stronger and taller than his opponents, yet when he looked at Zhang Longchu's faint smile, the two motorcycle riders felt as if their tightly clenched fists had suddenly become as heavy as a thousand pounds, unable to strike out.
Upon hearing this, both Ken and Bob couldn't help but nod in agreement, and their expressions immediately became much more pleasant.
Alright, then let's have lunch together at noon. Dear brother Howard, please share how you spent your first "Rainy Festival" and also explain why you are at school so early today without taking the school bus. " Obano said with a hearty laugh, causing Kainal, who seemed to have something to feel guilty about, to show an awkward expression.
But now they dare not fight, nor dare to scold; they stubbornly hold on, fearing that losing face would be even worse. Apologizing, on the other hand, seems like a way out. Thus, after a moment of hesitation, they deeply lowered their heads and awkwardly said: "We are sorry, Long, we apologize..."
After forcefully suppressing the others' apologies, Zhang Longchu showed no intention of continuing to press the matter. The cold smile on his face quickly transformed into a cheerful one as he softly said: "If we are to talk about apologies, my friend is also at fault; it was merely a misunderstanding, and there is no need to take it so seriously. Captain Kainal, did you not say that these two students are new transfers to the football team? Then their welcome party should not have taken place yet, right? Hmm, this is probably the reason you have been wanting some 'fun stuff' these past few days, isn't it? Therefore, I am willing to offer a 10% discount this time, as a welcome gift for Ken and Bob. By the way, the quality of this 'merchandise' is quite excellent."
The tall and thin student, who was blocked by the motorcycle riders, saw this scene and his panicked expression instantly turned into one of joy. He ran a few steps to Oubano's side, looked at him and Zhang Longchu beside him, and exclaimed: "Oubano, Longchu, good morning, guys. Oh, Longchu, I haven't been able to reach you these past few days..."
If it were not for the overwhelming presence of Zhang Longchu that left them in a difficult position, then even if the team captain spoke, the two headstrong motorcycle riders would never easily bow their heads
Although Zhang Longchuxi is easily provoked to violence due to the peculiarities of his life trajectory, he actually possesses a kind side in his nature; otherwise, he would not have taken the risk to save others during the car accident.
After saying this in a pretentious manner, he turned his head and feigned surprise at seeing Zhang Longchu, exclaiming with delight: "Hi, dear Long, you are here too"
Just at that moment, a series of "ding ding ding..." preparatory bells rang out across the campus, and Zhang Long could no longer afford to chat idly with his friends, as he hurriedly dashed towards the teacher's office
Oh, no, oh no, you wouldn't be standing here because you had a conflict with Bob and Ken, would you? They are newcomers who just transferred from Bessie Street Private School and recently joined our football team, and they are not familiar with the people and matters concerning 'settlement'.
Afterward, Zhang Longchu, who had staggered to steady his footing, looked up at the two robust motorcycle riders who were at least a head taller than him. A faint smile, inexplicably chilling, appeared on his face as he softly said: "Since you are asking me who I am, it seems that you must have just transferred to 'An Dun' not long ago."
A middle school student who thrives in school due to a good family background, strong physique, and athletic talent, and a brooding youth who has regarded serious criminal activities such as robbery, drug trafficking, and murder as part of life since the age of ten, display entirely different momentum in a real confrontation.
On the road, Bob, who had never felt so embarrassed, hesitated for a moment and gritted his teeth as he asked Kainal: "Captain, who is that dragon, what is his background, and why is he so arrogant?"
They stood there in silent embarrassment, with no steps to retreat, and they truly had no way to exit the stage, so they could only endure it with increasingly flushed faces
A handsome white young man of similar height and build just emerged from a parked white BMW sports car. Upon seeing the three people in a standoff from a distance, he paused slightly, then quickly ran forward, weaving through the crowd of onlookers until he reached the two motorcycle riders. With a smile, he said: "Bob, Ken, it's almost time for class, why aren't you in the classroom yet..."
Let your brains and blood flow on this patch of grass like the sauce tofu porridge in a Chinese fast food restaurant If you don't believe it, we can make it a try
Fortunately, at this moment, a savior has arrived
Because he is still a minor, he is protected by the rights regulations for minors in the United States, and his real name and identity did not appear in the news about the car accident that occurred two days ago. However, in Los Angeles, everyone's medical records can be accessed online, so after explaining the situation, it was quite easy to successfully obtain a fake medical record.
However, if you truly do that, then tomorrow... Tomorrow, unless I die, I will definitely send two bullets into your heads
I have a rather peculiar name for Americans, which is Longchu Zhang (张龙初). My close friends are accustomed to calling me Longchu (龙初), while my general classmates refer to me as Dragon (龙), the settled Dragon
"Oh Long, you are truly a generous friend." Upon hearing this, Kainal stepped forward and gave Zhang Longchu a tight hug, lowering his voice to say, "Then we will meet at the usual place for the second class, exchanging money for goods hand in hand." He turned and walked towards the teaching building with his two dejected new team members.
Seeing his attitude, which was even more arrogant than Kainar's, the two heavy motorcycle riders flushed with anger, stepped forward with chests out, and simultaneously shoved him while shouting: "Who do you think you are, kid? We are no small trouble for you!"
But aren't we all brothers? There's no need to get angry over a small matter
As for his own future, he was certainly not as indifferent as Kainal suggested, thus when he saw the teacher directly erase his absentee record, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief
I have been trying to find you to buy some interesting items for the past couple of days, but I couldn't find anyone. I didn't expect to run into you early this morning; it truly is a stroke of luck
"Hi, Howard, my dear friend, good morning to you as well," Zhang Longchu interrupted his friend's words with a deadpan expression but a tone full of mockery. "However, this is not the time for idle chatter. Let me help you deal with this little trouble first, and then we can talk slowly afterward." He stepped forward, positioning himself between Obano and the motorcycle riders.
He has no background; he is merely a small-time thug who grew up on Orange Street and got into 'An Dun' by sheer luck. Kainal replied with a tone of disdain that was completely different from before: 'But you know how people in the slums can be; sometimes they would shoot a big hole in your head over a new jacket. So for these kinds of bastards who would do anything, as long as it’s not a big deal, the smartest thing to do is to avoid them, isn’t it? We have a bright and beautiful future ahead of us; we can’t risk ruining our lives over trash that doesn’t even understand the word 'future'.
Unlike the reverence for the 'dragon' in the Chinese culture, in the cultures of Western nations, the 'dragon' is indeed one of the most powerful, evil, and cruel monsters
The one who was arrogantly shouting insults was Obano. After his disrespectful remarks, this strong black youth provocatively bared his teeth, raised his eyebrows, and stared defiantly at the angry motorcyclist who turned around, displaying a challenging expression.
Bob, Ken, this is our dragon from An Dun Middle School, and also a good partner of our entire football team. I know he is not the type to cause trouble for no reason; whatever has happened, it must be your fault, so come over and say sorry
Seeing his close friend being forcefully pushed by those two strong motorcycle riders, who were over 190 centimeters tall with bulging chest muscles, Oubano let out a furious roar and was about to step forward to fight, but was abruptly stopped by Zhang Longchu, who did not even turn his head.
Today, I came to school as usual, without any preparation at all, so you can now freely vent your anger by giving me a good beating.
The reason you cannot grasp the trick is that you are a black person, Zhang Longchu said with a sneer: Alright, enough chatting, let's hurry to the classroom, I still need to ask Teacher Denver for a leave before class.
At the same time that the three members of the football team were ruthlessly slandering Zhang Longchu, Obano was paying tribute to his close friend, "Longchu, I must say that when you are angry, you are the most imposing yellow-skinned monkey I have ever seen. Unfortunately, apart from characters in soap operas, young and beautiful girls no longer appreciate this kind of true masculinity. Oh, how do you manage to make that expression? You should know that I have secretly practiced it hundreds of times, yet I can never grasp the trick."
