Reborn with an Old Enemy on the Day of our Marriage-Chapter 12 - Fighting Over Eggs

Chapter 12 - Fighting Over Eggs

Hearing a crash, Zheng PingQing looked back only to see Dong MingEn on the ground, his face full of grief.

Zheng PingQing looked at him oddly. “Why are you on the ground?”

Dong MingEn stood back up and with his face grey and hands clenched into fists, whispered: “I was just careless.”

When Lin Qian arrived, he saw Dong MingEn and Lou XingGuang standing nearby. He smiled and said: “You two came to have breakfast too?”

Zheng PingQing immediately interrupted: “They were just leaving.”

He turned towards the two and tried to hint again: “Weren’t you two leaving?”

“Yeah.” Lou XingGuang started to drag Dong MingEn away as he replied: “Then we’ll be going first.”

Dong MingEn reluctantly allowed Lou XingGuang to drag him away, looking back as they slowly walked off.

“How can we just leave Boss like that?” Dong MingEn cried out.

“Don’t you get it?” Lou XingGuang’s voice was heavy with helplessness and unwillingness. “The Boss had been urging us to leave the entire time. I’m afraid it’s because he didn’t want us to see him at such a low point. Are you saying we should stay and watch him do such embarrassing things?”

Dong MingEn clenched his hands until the knuckles whitened: “How can Lin Qian torture Boss like this…he actually….made the Boss carry his bag for him!”

Zheng PingQing was the leader of Class 8 and is on top of the school hierarchy. But now he has to carry Lin Qian’s bag for him? Was there anything more humiliating than this?

As Dong MingEn thought of this, he felt so heartbroken that he couldn’t breathe.

“Lin Qian is so vicious!” Luo XingGuang gritted his teeth. As they walked, Dong MingEn suddenly grabbed his shoulder.

Dong MingEn’s voice trembled as he said: “Lin Qian is such a bully!!!!”

Lou XingGuang and Dong MingEn couldn’t help but look back. By chance, they happened to see Zheng PingQing taking his fried egg and placing it in Lin Qian’s cup. Lin Qian’s mouth curved as he began to dig in.

Luo XingGuang was stunned. He felt that this scene in front of him was somewhat difficult to understand, something way out of comprehension. His brain started to grasp some vague conclusions, but before he could fully form the idea, he was interrupted by Dong MingEn’s angry outburst.

“It’s not enough for him to force the Boss to buy him food, now he’s even stealing the Boss’ eggs!”

Luo XingGuang brain jolted and his vague thoughts scattered.

Seeing Dong MingEn look like he was about to rush back, Lou XingGuang pulled his friend back, saying: “Forget it, forget it!”

“But the Boss won’t be full without the eggs added to his noodles!” Dong MingEn was so angry his voice cracked.

Lou XingGuang gave him a look. “What do you think the Boss prefers? Be bullied by Lin Qian in front of us, or eat a little less?”

“Do you think, with the Boss’ personality, he’d be able to take being bullied by Lin Qian rather than just eating less?”

Dong MingEn: “….”

“Come on, don’t look anymore.” Lou XingGuang pulled him into the school building, leaving the painful scene behind.

It hadn’t been easy for Zheng PingQing to ditch all the light bulbs blocking his way, but now he could enjoy a long-awaited pink atmosphere. He handled Lin Qian’s breakfast carefully: He had meat, eggs, and milk- a sumptuous and complete meal. He soon realized that he was such a kind and sweet boyfriend.

Unexpectedly, after looking at his cup of noodles, then at Zheng PingQing’s, Lin Qian said: “I’ll trade you my ham for your eggs.”

Zheng PingQing was puzzled. “Why?” He knew that Lin Qian didn’t like to eat eggs much.

Lin Qian wrinkled his nose. “I thought about it, and figured that while I’m still in the process of growing, if I work hard, maybe I won’t be shorter than you in the future.”

Zheng PingQing was silent for a bit, then struggled to say: “Being short by five centimeters is also very good, ah…perfect for holding while sleeping….”

Lin Qian gave him the side-eye. “It’s easier to kiss if we’re at the same height, and it looks better in wedding photos.”

Zheng PingQing wavered a little.

Lin Qian added: “More positions can be unlocked too.”

Zheng PingQing solemnly replied: “Eat more, it’s not enough for me.”

As he said this, Zheng PingQing picked up the fried egg in his cup and transferred it into Lin Qian’s. Then he started to stir the noodles in Lin Qian’s cup with his chopsticks. “Keep the ham, I’ll just taste your noodles…ah that stingy owner, how come the mushroom stewed chicken and the roast beef taste the same?”

Lin Qian looked at Zheng PingQing’s face as he ate the noodles and couldn’t help but smile. Whether he looked eighteen or thirty, he was still the same person. The same person he liked.

Zheng PingQing looked at Lin Qian’s expression and couldn’t help but smile back, his eyes becoming gentle. They continued to eat, and Zheng PingQing finished his noodles in just a few mouthfuls. Finished, he asked Lin Qian: “Has the owner’s skill improved? I’ve eaten this countless times back then…”

Seeing Lin Qian looking at him curiously, Zheng PingQing slightly smiled and answered his own question: “It’s because the person who accompanied me this time was you.”

Lin Qian: “…..”

Lin Qian looked at him and struggled out a reply: “How long have you waited to say that line?”

Zheng PingQing’s expression didn’t change one bit as he answered: “It just suddenly came to me.”

Lin Qian couldn’t help but shove a piece of ham into Zheng PingQing’s mouth: “Then you should eat some more.”

Zheng PingQing stared at him, madly hinting.

Lin Qian: “….”

Zheng PingQing continued to pointedly stare, refusing to back down.

When Lin Qian finished his food and sipped his yogurt drink, Zheng PingQing still continued to stare, becoming less and less subtle.

Lin Qian was silently defeated. “Well, this is the best breakfast I’ve ever had.”

With this, Zheng PingQing was satisfied. He finally finished chewing the ham in his mouth, then got up and shouted: “Owner, the bill.”

“Alright.” The owner of the shop came out while wiping his hands on his apron. When he saw Zheng PingQing and Lin Qian standing next to each other, his expression changed and he nervously commented: “You two students shouldn’t be impulsive. Harmony amongst each other is paramount, and most importantly, no fights in my store!”

Zheng PingQing: “…..”

Lin Qian thought hard. Trying to recall such old memories, it seemed that he really did fight with Zheng PingQing in this shop before.

Ah, Lin Qian felt that every corner of the world was filled with memories of the two of them beating each other up.

It’s really nostalgic and quite embarrassing.

Zheng PingQing silently paid, grabbed Lin Qian’s shoulder, then smiled as he said goodbye: “Bye, Owner.”

Lin Qian also smiled: “Good-bye Owner.”

Watching the two men leave shoulder to shoulder, the owner: ?????

Are the feelings of boys these days so fickle?

……

As soon as Dong MingEn and Lou XingGuang entered Class 8, Gou XingDou approached them and asked: “Were things alright yesterday?”

Dong MingEn casually replied: “It’s fine.”

Gou XingDou breathed a sigh of relief: “That’s good.”

Lou XingGuang looked at him in doubt before suddenly grabbing him by his collar: “Did you go and tell a teacher about things yesterday?”

When Dong MingEn heard this, he also suddenly understood. Becoming furious, he yelled: “Fuck, it’s you! I’ve been wondering how teacher Ke found us!”

“It wasn’t me.” Gou XinDou struggled out of Lou XingGuang’s grip. Seeing Dong MingEn’s hand curling into a fist, he quickly raised his hands in surrender and yelled: “I request a minute to freely argue my case!”

Dong MingEn and Lou XingGuang looked at each other, then decided to give their classmate a chance.

Gou XinDou sighed in relief then explained that Hou YeRui would sometimes ask him for information. He continued: “After he asked me about your plans yesterday, the feeling of unease grew more and more. I went to the abandoned building to look at the situation, but I ended up crossing paths with teacher Ke and the principal. When I saw them, I knew Hou YeRui sold everyone out.”

“Fuck.” Dong MingEn was burning up. “What the hell is wrong with Hou YeRui? So nosy, why can’t he just mind his own business.”

Gou XinDou was sad as he replied: “Blame me for being too naive and innocent, easily trusting a top student.”

Lou XingGuang had no mercy for him. “Hah, didn’t you just want to hold onto prince’s thigh?”

“I can’t deny that such thoughts weren’t there at the beginning,” Gou XinDou was regretful. “But after yesterday’s incident, I finally saw the true faces of those top students. Sure enough, while prestigious houses might look honorable, in reality, they’re nothing but a bunch of spies, tattling to the enemy !”

Luo XingGuang: “…..”

Gou XinDou continued: “I’ve decided! From now on, I’ll break up with Hou YeRui and become a pure-hearted, Class 8 student!”

Dong MingEn hummed. “The organization doesn’t trust you right now; you’ll need to be observed for a while.”

Gou XinDou was resolute. “Time will prove everything.”

Lou XingGuang touched his chin then suddenly said: “Wait a minute, don’t break things off with Hou YeRui.”

Seeing Dong MingEn look at him doubtfully, Lou XingGuang explained: “I think Hou YeRui’s targeting Class 8 specifically. We’ll need to guard against him, so I think it’ll be good to let Gou XinDou continue to lurk around him.”

Dong MingEn suddenly understood. “Yeah, you’re right.”

Gou XinDou blinked and said: “You want me to go undercover.”

Dong MingEn patted Gou XinDou’s shoulder, replying: “The organization has decided to give you a chance to repent from your sins and make a meritorious contribution.”

“I’m willing to accept the organization’s test.” Gou XinDou patted his chest, then shyly said: “I don’t really mind. In fact, I haven’t actually thought about how to break up with the prince yet.”

Dong MingEn: “……”

Dong MingEn was hesitant as he turned to Lou XingGuang. “Why do I think this kid can easily betray us at any time?”

Gou XinDou puffed out his chest. “Rest assured, as long as you’re a pure underachiever, I’ll always be your loyal friend.”

As soon as Gou XinDou finished his sentence, a person suddenly leaned into the class’ hallway window, shouting: “Dong MingEn, come out for a bit.”

The three of them turned around and saw that the person was Xu Yao, someone in the top class.

Xu Yao’s expression was full of impatience as he urged: “Hurry up, I thought you wanted to study?”

Gou XinDou looked at Dong MingEn in shock: ?????

Dong MingEn, who felt like a husband caught in the act by his wife, yelled: “You listen to my explanation!”

That end lol
