Chapter 24 - 2.3
"Get up, shrimp, do my homework now."
Yunyu stared at the second master of the world, Zhou Junze dumbly. He recovered from the ground and muttered lowly, "But the class is going to start soon, how can I—"
"Ha? What? You shrimp can't even speak clearly!" Junze bent his back and put his ear closer to Yunyu's mouth in an exaggerated manner, "Speak!"
Yunyu was scared for real this time. Junze had the same height as Ronghui, but Junze looked sharper and fiercer, as if Yunyu was facing a tiger right now. Yunyu gulped and asked the system:
[Will he beat me up if I refuse?]
[Pupa: Definitely.]
Yunyu gulped once more and said, "I—I will do it…"
Satisfied with the answer, Junze laughed and patted Yunyu's back, "That is what I want to hear. At least a shrimp like you can still be useful."
Junze sat under a magnolia tree and put his hand behind his head, he rested under the tree. Yunyu could only sigh and followed Junze under the tree. He sat beside Junze and did all Junze's homework quickly.
Yunyu was quite good with his study in his real world, so a mere homework like this wouldn't be hard to do. Yunyu wrote fast, when Junze glanced whether this shrimp actually did his homework or not, he was pleasantly surprised with Yunyu's speed to finish his homework.
"You can be this fast? You were so slow before. I was late because you were too slow to finish my homework," Junze sneered, "Are you doing it on purpose so teachers can punish me?"
Yunyu ignored Junze. Yunyu realized that Junze was just lazy. Because this homework was not even hard, Junze was probably too lazy to open the book.
"Speak, shrimp!" Junze's thundering voice shocked Yunyu. He froze on the spot, he stopped writing and raised his head, looking at Junze sacredly.
"I—I will try my best…" Yunyu muttered softly.
Junze laughed seeing Yunyu's reaction. He liked bullying this little shrimp. Because this little shrimp always cowered under him, like a scared little rat. He was also quiet and obedient. Although Junze wouldn't want to take this kid as his little brother, he wouldn't let this kid call him gè.
Because this kid was scrawny and looked too docile, he didn't need a shrimp in his gang.
However, Junze stuck around with this kid because he needed him to deliver his feelings to the male god, Ronghui. Junze had a crush on Ronghui since freshman year. But he was nervous whenever Ronghui was around, he also knew that Ronghui was already a small celebrity.
Junze didn't care about their same sex at all, his father also had many affairs with both men and women, it didn't matter. And image was the last thing Junze cared, as long as he was feared, he didn't care about anything else. But he knew that Ronghui definitely cared for his image. So, Junze wanted to slowly court Ronghui until his heart softened.
And his ticket to Ronghui was Yunyu. When he discovered that Yunyu was actually Ronghui's roommate, he caught this little shrimp and bullied him until he was scared to death, then it was easy to order this shrimp around.
"Yo, shrimp. Did you deliver my message to Ronghui?"
[System, what message?]
[Pupa: Junze ordered Li Yunyu to send the message that Junze's family would sponsor Ronghui's career to be an actor, as long as he agreed to have a date with Junze.]
[Did Li Yunyu deliver the message? Because if he did… then the task will be harder.]
[Pupa: He didn't. Li Yunyu has been in love with Ronghui since their first meeting. That's why he didn't deliver the message to Ronghui.]
[Wait, Li Yunyu is in love with Ronghui?! Why didn't you tell me sooner!]
[Pupa: It is not important information anyway.]
…
Yunyu gulped and replied nervously, "R—Ronghui is busy nowadays. He is always in a bad mood, I'm afraid that he will not take it kindly…"
"Really?" Junze's eyes squinted suspiciously at Yunyu, then nodded, "Alright then, tell him when he is in good mood."
Before Yunyu could take a relieved breath, Junze suddenly pulled Yunyu's collar roughly and threatened him, "Don't play games with me, or I will beat your brains out."
Faced with Junze's sharp glare and deep voice, Yunyu trembled in fear and he nodded. Junze was satisfied with this kid's obedience, he released his collar and patted his shoulder, "Do good, help me get Ronghui, and I will reward you."
Junze snatched his homework from Yunyu and stood from the tree. He walked off leisurely, leaving Yunyu petrified in fear.
[Pupa: Ding! Zhou Junze's Fatemeter increases to 5%!]
[I don't need that stupid Fatemeter! I almost pissed myself. Junze is way too frightening!]
[Pupa: Well, he is the master of the world, that is why he has a frightening aura.]
Yunyu took a while to get up and walked to the class. When he arrived at the class, the students were busy chatting and many girls flocked around Ronghui as usual. Ronghui and Yunyu were in the same class, 2-A. The class was only for smart students, while Junze was in 2-F for an obvious reason.
Ronghui noticed Yunyu came to the class later than him, although Yunyu left the dorm earlier. His uniform was wrinkled and he looked down.
This was the first time Ronghui noticed Yunyu's presence in class. He usually ignored this guy, because he cared for his image, he didn't want his fans to know that Yunyu and him shared the same room.
Yunyu sat on his seat, head down, and started eating his breakfast, a piece of steamed bun. It was a really pitiful sight. But Ronghui noticed that Yunyu's nape was slightly bruised.
'Did he got bullied?' Ronghui wondered. Yunyu was a timid, weak-willed kid. He always avoided confrontation, he was ignored most of the time too.
'Who would bully him? Yunyu doesn't have any enemy, nor he fights with anyone. Who would cruelly bully a timid boy like him? What a despicable man!' Ronghui had a surge of anger in his heart. He was not a saint, but he would never bully a timid kid who had never done anything wrong.
When he thought about Yunyu, who was an orphan, suffered bullying with no one to protect him, Ronghui felt that he was despicable last night. Because he really insulted Yunyu to the ground, but Yunyu could only cower and said nothing.
'If he can't even argue with me, then he is definitely bullied by someone,' Ronghui's eyes didn't leave Yunyu's back. He ignored chattering from the fangirls around him. Maybe because he felt guilty for insulting Yunyu last night, he had an urge to protect Yunyu from anyone who dared to bully him again.
Meanwhile, Yunyu was suffering because his breakfast was just a steamed bun with green bean paste. He ate with grievance in his heart.
[Can I at least buy a bucket of chicken drumstick for my lunch?]
[Pupa: You'll go broke if you dare to buy one. Li Yunyu is a poor student, and the school foundation has decreased the amount of scholarship money you get every month.]
[Wuwuwu… Li Yunyu's life is so hard.]
While Yunyu ate the plain bun grudgingly, the system had a sudden notification.
[Pupa: Ding! Yang Ronghui's Fatemeter increases to 10%, Breakmeter increases to 15%.]
Yunyu turned his head in reflex, he turned his head at Ronghui's seat, and their eyes met.
