Since the two schools recently merged, and the campus where they were supposed to take classes was relocated, the school opened a few days early.
Currently, the students weren’t aware of this brewing conspiracy.
*
After the merger of the two schools, the students would be joined together.
Third-year senior high school students were arranged to be on a separate campus. They would have to study at the place where the Lantau High School used to be.
While the first and second year senior high school students were arranged to study at the Fenghua High School campus.
The school name has been changed to Fengyu High School.
Sui HouYu dragged his suitcase towards Fenghua Campus. As he stood at the school gates, he looked at the school building, then at the endless cornfields surrounding it, before his expression gradually collapsed.
The green corn bushes and slender leaves rustled in the breeze and thrived under the sun.
Such a vibrant green matched with the color of Sui HouYu’s face.
It was close to Xiangjia Lane, which was the reason why Sui HouYu decided to stay there. He didn’t expect that the school address would be even more remote than Xiangjia Lane.
Xiangjia Lane was close to mountains and rivers, while Fenghua High School was close to fields and loess hills.
It seemed like they built a high school here because the place was huge enough for it. It was even said that one might get lost in the school, due to how massive it was. There were even some buildings that remained empty because, after the construction, they have no idea how it was going to be used for.
Well.
It was easy to get lost.
The school was too huge and confusing.
Sui HouYu could only follow along with the crowd and comfort himself that he would be able to return to his original campus next year.
Today was the first day of the new semester. Students weren’t wearing their school uniforms so if they weren’t familiar, they couldn’t tell each other apart: whether one was a returning student or someone from the other school.
Sui HouYu wore twilight red noise-canceling headphones, and the band helped put his fluffy hair in place against the wind. But still, some wisps that weren’t covered by the headphones stubbornly waved along with the breeze.
The students around Sui HouYu couldn’t help but steal glances at him. It seemed like the teenager was particularly eye-catching in the crowd.
It was a pity the young man seemed distant and stared at everyone with frosty eyes.
As Sui HouYu walked among the crowd, from time to time someone would recognize him and would greet, “Yu-ge.”
Another person said, “Yu-ge, Ran Shu is at the entrance of the curved building.”
Sui HouYu walked towards the mentioned building. When he was near, he saw a group of familiar people gathered together.
When teenagers arrive in an unfamiliar environment, they all want to show off their momentum and don’t want to be compared to other people from another school. Boys of different shapes and sizes had gathered together, trying their best to make themselves look arrogant.
The second years were such sand sculptures.
Sui HouYu wanted to laugh.
Ran Shu was different from the others.
He was dejectedly squatted on a table. Having seen Sui HouYu, he suddenly stood up and complained, “Fuck-fuck-fuck the students would be divided according to their grades.”
Ran Shu, who was Sui HouYu’s best friend, was a rich second generation who liked to show off his wealth every day.
He had no other quality except his wealth, so this was the only way he could prove himself and be recognized by others.
Studying was his shortcoming; too short to even consider.
As Sui HouYu chewed on his gum, he thoughtlessly blurted out, “Maybe they’re afraid the students would form cliques.”
With the merger of the two schools, and the students being young and brash; it would be easy for them to form two groups and possibly create trouble for each other.
The school decided it would be best to separate them all, to avoid groupings. If they all became friends, then none would go looking for trouble.
With a bitter face, Ran Shu asked, “What-what should I do?”
Ran Shu and Sui HouYu’s academic achievements were polar opposites.

Ran Shu and Sui HouYu’s rooms were on the sixth floor.
For Sui HouYu, the floor was fine, but for the young master Ran Shou, who was a “delicate little brother”, this floor was really disgusting and easily got on his nerves.
Sui HouYu didn’t care. As he cleaned the room, he chatted with Ran Shu.
Ran Shu was still talking about renting a house with Sui HouYu, “My-my family has a lot of houses, and yet I don’t use any of those when I stay out of my home.”
”My mother found out I was missing, so she asked your mother. I couldn’t hide it any longer.”
”Besides,” Ran Shu casually sat on the side, “You only go to that wrecked house on the weekend. But the air conditioning in this room is really shabby, I haven’t felt a single puff of air for half a day.”
Today, the returning students were supposed to move into the dormitories and clean up the surroundings.
Neither of them went to the clean-up, and no one called them.
When evening came, the students who had finished cleaning returned one after the other. When they passed by Sui HouYu’s room, they would knock, open the door and say, “Yu-ge and Shu-ge, the exam will begin tomorrow at 7:30 in the morning. The two of you will be in room 11. It’s in building 2 – the tallest one.”
They were not familiar with it, and could only give a description.
Ran Shu waved a hand and nodded, “Thank-thank you.”
Sui HouYu only responded with a grunt.

According to the total number of students, the second years were divided into 32 classes.
Classes 1 to 9 were for the liberal arts faculty and classes 10 to 17 were for the science faculty . There were also 15 international classes; which were for the special students from the two private high schools.
For liberal arts, class-1 had the best academic performance and from class-2, the performance declined.
It was the same for the science classes.
It only took a day for the assessment to finish, as they only had to take the tests for the main subjects. The school was quick to grade the tests. They heard that the teachers worked overtime until past midnight so that they could post the class placement the next morning.
Ran Shu already knew which class he would be in so he didn’t join with the crowd to look at the big list early in the morning. He went directly to the classroom for Class 17 and sat on his most favorite seat.
It was by the classroom’s window, in the corner of the last row.
If one wants to bask in the sun and sleep, that place was one with the best Feng shui for a school slag.
As Ran Shu rocked back and forth in his seat, he saw a group of people coming in. The people in the group were tall and laughing together.
Even if they were in class 17, they still had a good attitude and were talented on their own.
Those people also went to the last row and sat on the four connected seats in the middle. One of the good-looking boys was close to the aisle and in turn close to Ran Shu’s seat.
Ran Shu glanced at the boy then smirked.
The other looked just okay and his smile looked greasy. Ran Shu was afraid that the boy would splash oil all over his body.
The following people who came in after were familiar with that group. When the others came in, they greeted each other. They were so noisy that Ran Shu rolled his eyes in anger.
Someone commented, “Won’t Class 17 be occupied by sports major students?”
Feng Hua High School used to have sports specialty and arts specialty classes. These two classes had a lot of learning slag, and it seemed like they all came together in Class 17.
As Ran Shu continued rocking his chair and waiting, he saw Sui HouYu enter the room carrying his bag. He was stunned. His eyes didn’t leave Sui HouYu as he walked towards him, and asked, “Are-are you looking for me?”
Sui HouYu threw his school bag on the table in front of Ran Shu’s and replied, “Can you be left on your own?”
”No, but how about you? Classes won’t change until the third year!” Ran Shu was too worried to stammer.
Ran Shu’s stuttering was only during normal times. He wouldn’t stutter when he was in a hurry or when he sang.
According to Ran Shu, his stammer was caused by being too frightened by his strict father. Maybe one day when his injured little heart would be cured, he’ll return to how he was.
”How would it be different? Your father would always be your father!” Sui HouYu didn’t care. After taking his seat, he took a look at the people around him.
The “Da Shixiong who wouldn’t fight” from a few days ago was also in this high school. He was sitting not far from them, just separated by an aisle. At this moment, he was resting his chin on a hand and looking at them with great interest, not even bothering to avoid Sui HouYu’s gaze.
Ran Shu was just too happy.
He knew just how academically acclaimed Sui HouYu was. He was so moved that he jumped up and hugged the other, not letting go, “You-you’re my father! Let me kiss my father!”
”Fuck off!”
”Okay,” Ran Shu cleverly loosened his hold.
Ran Shu completely let go of Sui HouYu. As he helped Sui HouYu move his chair, he saw an acquaintance again.
Su AnYi came in.
Another fairy came to class 17 for him.
Ran Shu burst into tears and cried, “Mama!”
He was slapped on the head by Sui HouYu, only then did he realize that he called her with the wrong title and changed his words, “Dear sister.”
Su AnYi didn’t respond and sat in front of Sui HouYu.
Ran Shu thought about it, then decided not to become Sui HouYu’s deskmate and picked up his bag to sit next to Su AnYi.
He knew what was wrong with Sui HouYu so he let him be and sat next to the beauty.
Hou Mo saw Su AnYi walk past him and immediately had a feeling about what would happen next.
When he turned around, he saw his friends looking straight.
This was a common problem that sports students faced – there were only a few girls in their class, and even if there were, they were more masculine than them.
He had no choice but to cover his face in fear that his friends would do something humiliating. Fortunately, they had just seen the beauty and hadn’t done anything yet.
The remaining students entered the room one by one. Hou Mo felt bored and played tennis with the things on his table. He looked up when he heard his friends greet the newcomers and saw Sang Xian enter.
Hou Mo stared at Sang Xian until his teeth began to hurt.
Truly like a ghost who haunts.
”Why are you here?” Hou Mo asked Sang Xian, tone displeased.
Sang Xian drawled, “Oh, because I believed you would be here.”
Hou Mo immediately cursed, “Fuck.”
The homeroom teacher only arrived when the classroom was almost full.
Seeing the teacher fast approaching, the boys in the last row suddenly wailed, “No!”
”Why are you so upset?”
”We wanted a female adviser.”
The homeroom teacher, who was called Ge-ge, looked to be in his early thirties. His hair was half long, and there was stubble on his chin. Overall, he looked a little sloppy.
He lazily looked at all of them, and blurted out, “You think I wanted to see you too?”
Ge-ge sorted out the class’ student list, then pointed at a row, “Self-introduction would start from there.”
They were all reluctant to speak.
The first one to introduce themselves was from Sui HouYu’s column. Then they all took turns.
Su AnYi stood up and coldly introduced, “My name is Su AnYi.”
Then she sat down.
Ge-ge-laoshi looked up at her and asked, “Nothing else?”
Ran Shu replied to him, “Lao-laoshi, she doesn’t like to talk.”
”Then you follow.”
Ran Shu immediately stood up and began to introduce himself, “My-my name is Ran Shu. I used to be from Lantau ju-junior High. I like hip-hop dancing and singing…”
Sui HouYu looked up as Ran Shu introduced himself, but frowned when he looked around. As expected, everyone looked like they were ridiculing the speaker.
He came here because of Ran Shu.
Ran Shu was a very temperamental person, but he had a debt to pay. He stammered but was a hard worker.
Ran Shu had no plans to change anything and was living quite comfortably.
But people around him always made fun of him because of his stammer, and it always angered Sui HouYu.
Sui HouYu had always been hypocritical.
He could bully and laugh at Ran Shu, but others weren’t allowed.
He especially came to Class 17 because he was afraid that Ran Shu would be bullied, so he was glad that he could protect him.
When Sui HouYu turned his head, he saw Hou Mo, who was across the aisle from him, exchange looks with his friends before the corners of his lips raised into a laugh. It seemed that the other had noticed Sui HouYu looking and met his gaze.
Sui HouYu looked at him disgusted.
Hou Mo was surprised. Could it be that their whispers were overheard?
His friend had mentioned that the homonym of Lantau High School was like love and desire.
When Ran Shu introduced himself and mentioned Lantau, it really sounded a bit like love and desire. Several boys looked at each other and shared hidden smiles.
Before he could hide his smile, Sui HouYu glared at him.
Hou Mo immediately withdrew his smile.
When it was his turn to introduce himself, Sui HouYu stood up.
Some girls in the class had already noticed him since the beginning, but they were shy and dared not look at him.
Now when he introduced himself, the girls finally dared to look at him and secretly felt excited.
Sui HouYu lowered his voice, “My name is Sui HouYu. I have a bad temper. I'm sick so don’t mess with me.”
After introducing himself he sat back down.
Hou Mo looked at Sui HouYu and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.
When it was Hou Mo’s turn, he slowly stood up and smiled, “Hello everyone, My name is Hou Mo. I have a very good temper so feel free to provoke me. I’m not ill.”
This sentence made Ran Shu look back at Hou Mo and curse, “Fuck…”
Why was this man so cheap? Was it on purpose?
Sui HouYu gave Hou Mo a bad look.
Hou Mo continued smiling and looked magnanimous.
At this moment, the teacher looked at Hou Mo and said, “You two have something going on? Why don’t you settle this now? Want to fight?”
The teacher was also something as he asked that in an indifferent voice.
Hou Mo continued smiling, “How could I? I’m sure I can get along well with my new classmates, right?”
Hou Mo said and stretched a hand towards Sui HouYu.
Sui HouYu also stretched out a hand but only to slap Hou Mo’s away, “I can’t, get lost.”
The author has something to say:
Hou Mo: Succeeded in attracting Wife’s attention.
Sui HouYu: Why is this man so annoying?
