Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 860 - 107 I Don’t Have Such a Nature! (Make-up Update)
Yang Tianyu has grown a lot in the past half year, his overall demeanor now appears much steadier.
Of course, it might also be because he spent too much time in the hospital and his body feels weak.
Attending a crappy school and spending almost half the time in the hospital was indeed quite miserable.
If it weren’t for practicing the Garrison Soldiers Dharma Gate, he’d probably be ruined by now.
Yang Tianyu and the few buddies he befriended are the second batch of garrison soldiers cultivated by Qinghe Middle School.
Their advantage lies in their family backgrounds—wealthy, living on a diet of luxury meats and various nutrition supplements, which allowed them to grow exceptionally fast.
They say poverty fosters literature while wealth fosters martial arts. Rich people training in martial arts versus poor people training is like comparing night and day.
But their weakness is that their lives are far too comfortable—they lack the experiences of wandering the streets like Wang Yunxiao’s crew. Their hearts aren’t ruthless enough, their hands not vicious enough, and most importantly, the trust among them isn’t very deep.
So almost every time they arrogantly head out, they come back beaten up like stray dogs.
Poor combat skills, weak coordination... but their future seems promising.
Even though the Yang Family’s reputation in the Jianghu World suffered greatly after causing an enormous debacle back in the day, you must admit—being able to pass down their legacy for a thousand years means they know a thing or two about nurturing the next generation.
"You want me to act as a rich heir and fight Dumpling?"
Yang Tianyu immediately shook his head when he heard this: "I can’t, I can’t, I just can’t play that role."
Why go looking for trouble during the holiday season?
Who’s Dumpling?
In Wang Yunxiao’s gang, everyone calls him Dumpling, and he doesn’t bother to correct them.
Outside the class, anyone who sees him has to address him as Dumpling Bro.
Saying Dumpling’s skills are weak is relative—following Wang Yunxiao to tackle high-level missions does indeed come with danger to one’s life, but it’s not as if they’re impossible to beat.
Plus, he’s the logistical chief responsible for procurement, with access to many unique resources others can’t obtain. For instance, the Special Service Bureau’s exclusive canned lamb that clears pollutants—only he can get his hands on it.
The small crew Yang Tianyu built himself is far from reaching the level where they can directly connect with the Special Service Bureau.
Additionally, in the eyes of first- and second-year freshmen, Dumpling Bro’s reputation and character are fairly solid.
Teacher Bai from Nanke High School only focuses on teaching and preaching, never on resolving doubts. She teaches what she needs to, but as for whether you understand or how much you understand, she doesn’t care.
The third-year seniors... anyone who had been to the Wei Family estate with them back then knows just how vicious they are, killing, arson, and robbery all done seamlessly—so smooth it felt like Dove chocolate. Reflecting on it still sends shivers down the spine.
Except for the reckless Liu Pangxie, other freshmen usually dare not approach these seniors, who treat killing like slaughtering chickens. There’s always the nagging feeling that one day they might turn into major villains, end up on death row at the firing squad for five minutes, and splatter blood all over you...
Among this ruthless group, the ones with relatively accommodating personalities and pleasant speech are Loach Bro and Dumpling Bro.
Loach Bro is often away and rarely seen. On the other hand, Dumpling Bro is always around—whether you look up or down, he’s there. If you have any cultivation-related questions, you can ask him, and he’ll patiently explain.
It’s not like he’s an expert, but his accumulated experience allows him to communicate in an accessible and straightforward way.
If you went to ask a top student for help, they’d give you complex instructions, and if you still don’t get it, they’d look at you disdainfully.
Dumpling Bro, on the other hand, would say don’t overthink—when in doubt, always pick C.
Just aim for a passing grade. If you’re asking such elementary questions, why fantasize about getting into Tsinghua University?
That’s why when Wang Yunxiao proposed the idea, Yang Tianyu instinctively rejected it.
"You just have to play yourself..."
"I’m not like that at all, man!"
Yang Tianyu felt aggrieved—why must a rich heir always bully others?
The buddies I know from those circles all stay humble and keep a low profile. The ones constantly partying are a minority, and even among them, it’s only because their families see no hope or potential left in them that they let them roam wild.
Besides, let’s be honest... I’m always playing the one who gets bullied, so why am I suddenly the villain here?
"Will you do it or not?"
"I really can’t do it."
"Holiday season—isn’t it better to collect some New Year’s gifts?"
"Ahem... I’m mainly worried I won’t play it well."
Wang Yunxiao shot him a glare, and Yang Tianyu immediately caved.
This setup isn’t even complicated—in Wang Yunxiao’s words, it’s just playing yourself.
If you make it too elaborate, their educational level probably won’t grasp it anyway.
Early the next morning, Cai Xiaofang and her mother left their home. As they reached a street away from the tailoring shop, they saw a commotion in the distance.
Cai Xiaofang spotted Dumpling surrounded and instinctively wanted to step in to help, but her mother Zhang held her back.
"What’s the use of you going alone?"
Zhang shot her daughter a fierce glare, dragged her to a secluded corner, and the two pricked up their ears to eavesdrop on the commotion.
They heard a wealthy-looking young man shout, "Dumpling! When are you going to repay the money you owe me?"
Dumpling forced a smile and said, "Mr. Yang, what are you saying? When did I ever say I wouldn’t repay? We agreed on a short-term loan to be repaid before the New Year—it’s only a few days into January now!"
"This isn’t about the money. You know exactly what you did!"
Yang Tianyu pressed his folding fan against Dumpling’s chest and said coldly, "If you’re really strapped for cash, fine, I’m not in a rush to get the money. But I’ve been hearing rumors that you secretly took money from Scar Wang’s private stash, and now, at year’s end, you can’t cover the hole, so you’re running around borrowing money to patch things up?"
Dumpling’s face changed, and he quickly waved his hands, saying, "No such thing! Don’t slander me!"
"Slander? I heard you’ve been spending Scar Wang’s money on some fling of yours, buying useless junk. That’s not slander, is it? Haha, Scar Wang has treated you well, yet you secretly collude with outsiders to embezzle and abuse his funds. What a great brother you are to him!"
"Shut up!"
Dumpling punched Yang Tianyu in the face. Yang Tianyu screamed, and his men rushed forward to pin Dumpling against the wall.
"Your mess isn’t my concern, but the money you borrowed from me? I want it back now."
Yang Tianyu snarled, "Whatever happens when Scar Wang audits the accounts—that’s your problem. I don’t want to get dragged into this. Get me the money within three days, or don’t blame me for spreading the word. What if Scar Wang hears about this..."
"I’ll pay, I’ll pay!"
Dumpling quickly surrendered. "Give me just a couple more days—I’ll definitely repay!"
"Three days. Not a day longer."
