Tang Meng’s expression could not hide the embarra.s.sment and anger he felt, he was really shocked! This was how Lingyun really was, he definitely did not expect it! Still, he could not stop himself from looking at this fat boy, who was wrongly wearing his uniform in a way which made him look funny and ridiculous. Apart from the face, Tang Meng realized that the biggest change in Lingyun was the gaze. In Lingyun’s eyes there was no cowardice, low self-esteem, excessive caution, but instead showed a hint of arrogance and proudness, it was pretty d.a.m.n cool. It was a clear and transparent gaze, sometimes careless, sometimes a little self-deprecating, but with a kind of bottomless tolerance. As if changing the vicissitudes of life would not count much for him. Tang Meng could not find other words to describe it.

If Tang Meng truly wanted to understand Lingyun’s transformation, he would have discovered that Lingyun’s aura was very attractive to others who wouldn't be able to manage without him. But Lingyun, feeling superior, firmly desired to keep people away. This contradiction would have – without doubt - made people despair.

< this="" guy……="">>, Tang Meng whispered to himself.

He did not say a word, but silently understood.

Lingyun found Ning Lingyu a bit different from usual.

After being surprised for a moment, he put down the chopsticks in his right hand and, with a faint smile, wiped the tears from her face with his clean right hand.

< laughing="" and="" crying="" will="" make="" you="" grow="" up!="" you’ll="" understand="" it="" one="" day……="">>.

The heart of Ning Lingyu warmed up, and the girl smiled through her tears.

Zhang Ling was shocked, will that loser of Lingyun be in our cla.s.s? Every word and every action of the bully Tang Meng could make Ning Lingyu cry.

If Lingyun was not so fat, he would have been the most beautiful brother in the world to the girl’s eyes.

When Cao Shanshan sat down in front of her, Zhang Ling did not notice it.

< what="" are="" you="" thinking="" about?="" what's="" up="" with="" you?="">>, Cao Shanshan shook her white hands in front of Zhang Ling, and interrupted her thoughts.

The girl quickly straightened, pointing her index finger on her left.

< i="" met="" tang="" meng="" before,="" he="" often="" eats="" here,="" it’s="" curious……="" “,="" cao="" shanshan="" broke="">

Unexpectedly, Lingyun was sitting at his right.

Absurd, look at them! Lingyun! What’s going on today, Ning Lingyu coming here to have lunch and… also Tang Meng?!

Cao Shanshan got even more confused after seeing her sitting next to Lingyun.

Who was he? The one who ran with five pounds of sandbags over four thousand meters was unexpectedly sitting here to eat lunch? And what about Cao Tianlong? Wasn't he in a coma for two days and two nights?

Several laughter arose nearby, someone was talking loudly on purpose, perhaps to attract the attention of the two school beauties, perhaps waiting to see a good show on the war about the Spring and Autumn period……

< what="" have="" you="" got?="">>, asked Cao Shanshan to Zhang Ling.

< boiled="" fish,="" and="" fuqifeipian…..="">>.

< wait="" a="" second="">>, Cao Shanshan shook her head and stood up, drawing all eyes on her with her beauty.

Cao Shanshan did not care the looks of the others, holding her beautiful bag she directly went to Tang Meng’s table and shouted: < get="" out,="" you="" idiot!!!="">>

What wickedness! How much arrogance! Tang Meng moved out without crying, but with sadness in his heart.

Basically, he did not hurt anyone, however, he was still one of the four bullies of the campus.

Nevertheless, he decided to listen to her after he remembered having heard from many that those who dared to provoke Cao Shanshan ended with their nose bleeding or, at worse, in a hospital.

Tang Meng did not speak, he withdrew silently, with chopsticks in his hand he went in the corner.

But inwardly he thanked Cao Shanshan, because he could finally see the genuine Ning Lingyu! Then, he began to fantasize on a light dinner candle with her.

Unfortunately, Cao Shanshan was not going to let him go. From her Louis Vuitton bag, she took out the elegant wallet and placed on the table a thousand of yuan saying to Tang Meng: < look="" at="" this,="" your="" thousand="" of="" yuan!="">>.

< hey,="" i="" finally="" see="" her="" money="">>, Tang Meng did not doubt that Cao Shanshan’s  is a school beauty or her family had tons of money, but this is his small gambling principle.

but before he could finish extending his hand, a plump one quickly grabbed the money.

< hey……!!!”,="" tang="" meng="" shouted,="">< those="" are="" my="" money!="">>.

< brother……="">>, murmured Ling Ningyu resentfully.

< you……="">> Cao Shanshan was startled, < what="" is="" the="" difference="" between="" you="" and="" a="" theft?!="" don’t="" you="" have="" any="" moral?!="">>, Zhang Ling was stunned, she looked at Cao Shanshan, wanting to see what would happen, maybe a fight. Lingyun did not care: he put the money away and then quietly picked up the chopsticks, continuing to eat. Tang Meng was about to speak, but then he saw he was surrounded by the two princesses of the school and ultimately decided to keep quiet.

< brother!="" you="" cannot="" take="" this="" money,="" this="" money="" belongs="" to="" tang="" meng’s="" family,="" tang="" meng="" has="" given="" some="" to="" me,="" and="" we="" already="" have="" a="" lot……="">>, Ning Lingyu was very anxious, if people knew, how could she still be seen around? Suddenly, in front of Tang Meng she burst into tears and, finally, her brother broke his silence.

< you’re="" right,="" we="" stole="" tang="" meng’s="" money="">>, but, immediately changing the subject, he said: < but,="" i="" should="" be="" rewarded="">>

Tang Meng stiffened: < reward?="" which="" reward?!="">>.

Lingyun replied very cheerfully: < you="" made="" me="" betting="" horse,="" and="" then="" i="" ran,="" you="" should="" give="" me="" some="" money,="" shouldn’t="" you?="">>.

< unbelievable!="">>, Tang Meng went mad altogether! < you="" decided="" to="" run,="" it="" was="" not="" my="" request,="" ok?!="" having="" chosen="" on="" your="" own="" i="" do="" not="" owe="" you="" anything,="" fat="" man,="" do="" you="" understand?!="">>, Tang Meng was furious, Cao Shanshan and Zhang Ling looked at Lingyunv, puzzled, how could someone be shameless to that point?!

After having listened to his brother’s words, Ning Lingyu did not know with whom to agree anymore: even though she knew that her brother was a bit irrational, he was still her brother!

< if="" you="" are="" not="" satisfied,="" you="" can="" go="" to="" the="" playground="" and="" have="" a="" run="" carrying="" sandbags="" for="" eleven="" laps.="" i="" bet="" these="" thousand="" yuan!="">>.

Having said this, he turned, continuing his lunch.

In a short time he ate the second plate, the third…… shortly after the waiter arrived with another bowlful of dish.

Cao Shanshan was really angry!

Not only because Lingyun took thousands of yuan without specific reason, but because he was completely ignoring them!

Since he sat to eat, Lingyun did not even bother to take a look!

Just to her! Her family was famous in China, she descended from a rich princess daughter of Cao!

I, Cao Shanshan, the most beautiful of the school, feel so humiliated!

She felt a knot in her stomach, her breath quickened, her chest swelled, and her nose stiffened delicately.

Zhang Ling did not believe it!

Seeing Lingyun continued to eat without looking at her, Cao Shanshan recovered. She had just become a raging lion, she just wanted to yank Lingyun.

< lingyun!="" so,="" what="" do="" you="" mean?!="">>, she asked, so loudly that the entire second floor of the canteen heard it! Everyone turned toward them, every eye focused on them.

Tang Meng could not help but feel a burst of pride.

< you="" are="" so="" shameless="" that="" you="" pretend="" to="" be="" superior,="" then?="" you="" dare="" to="" offend="" the="" most="" beautiful="" girl="" in="" school,="" right?="" then="" as="" soon="" as="" someone="" looks="" at="" you…!="">>

Lingyun slightly frowned his eyebrow; now that he could finally eat freely they were disturbing him with these piercing screams, how so?

He distractedly glanced Cao Shanshan, seeing her so agitated, he did not even look at her face.

< pretty,="" properly="" high,="" big="" t.i.ts……="">>, murmured Lingyun chewing.

< what="" did="" you="" say="">>, Cao Shanshan clearly heard those vulgar words.

Since she was a smart girl, Cao Shanshan did not even want to know what Lingyun had just said, in order to prevent it from spreading to many people!

< it="" does="" not="" matter="" what="" i="" said,="" the="" question="" is,="" if="" i="" can,="" who="" are="" you?="" some="" kind="" of……="" i="" dunno……="" oh,="" tang="" meng,="" right!="" is="" she="" your="" girlfriend?="">>

Lingyun was not a fool, in his memories he could clearly recognize Lingyu and his mother, he also had a vague memory of the bully, but the faces of the others and those who had mistreated him were not in his head anymore, just a few names were resonating in some familiar way to him.

A fight that would leave everyone half-broken was about to burst!

The dining room of the second floor was in turmoil, everybody went from here and there.
