Chapter 637-638

Chapter 637: Give Him a Chance to Make a Move 　 After class, the students left the multimedia classroom one after another. As Yun Xi passed Zhou Chengzhe, she glanced at him without really meaning to. Today, he had probably been the person who had had the biggest problem with her being chosen ahead of time. “Yun Xi, don’t act so smug. I won’t lose to you. Even if there is only one spot left, I will fight you to the end.” Yun Xi paused. She couldn’t help laughing when she heard him say this. “Zhou Chengzhe, if you want to treat me as an opponent, it won’t work if I don’t treat you as an opponent. Competing with someone who isn’t at the same level as I am doesn’t interest me at all.” 　 　 “You b*tch! Yun Xi, don’t act like too much of a bully.” Her contemptuous words had successfully aroused Zhou Chengzhe’s anger. Zhou Chengzhe had already been massively provoked by the extraordinary talent Yun Xi had shown in the video. At this moment, now that she’d provoked him so arrogantly and contemptuously, all his calmness and rationality had been replaced by anger. “I never bully people who are weaker than I am.” Yun Xi raised her eyebrows and watched indifferently as Zhou Chengzhe lashed out with hostility toward her. She had encountered many easily agitated and conceited men in her previous life. He thought he was number one in the world and didn’t take anyone else seriously. Since he didn’t have any respect for others at all, then he couldn’t blame her for mercilessly crushing his ego with her capabilities. “Just you wait! There is one place left, and I will definitely get it. At that time, I’ll show you. I won’t lose to you.” “All right, I will wait and see.” Tugging at the corners of her mouth, Yun Xi pulled Zhao Yumo’s arm and the two of them left the academic building together. “Yun Xi, why did you anger Zhou Chengzhe just now? I saw his terrifying expression. I’m really worried about him making another shady move. You have to be careful.” Yun Xi squinted, turned her head, and smiled at Zhao Yumo, “Why don’t you realize that I’ve deliberately angered him so that he’ll make his move sooner rather than later?” “Aren’t you worried about those snakes?” “Yes. Zhou Chengzhe hasn’t made a move yet, so I will give him a chance to do it. Today, Teacher Lu announced a quota, which is a good fuse for him. According to my hunch, he will do it tonight. Only after resolving those snakes can he proceed to the next plan. Otherwise, we will be at his mercy, which is passive and not a good thing.” “Huh? Does he have another trick up his sleeve?” Yun Xi nodded. “The virus that was flown abroad has been traced. The Young Marshal said that three are missing. One was placed by Li Sinuo on your cup, and the whereabouts of the other two are unknown. Moreover, Zhou Chengzhe and Liang Xinyi are now in cahoots, so I’m worried that there will be further shenanigans. If there are not, that would be the best scenario. However, just in case there are, we have to take precautions in advance.” “Then I’ll remind everyone not to sleep too deeply at night, otherwise all h*ll will break loose after the snake slips in.” 　 　 “Yes, and I will find a suitable reason to talk to the two of them, especially Jian Junling. She is kind of timid. If there is a loud disturbance in the bedroom, our plan will fall through.” There were no classes in the evening, but most of the students went to the classrooms to do practice problems, and, occasionally, the professors would come over to help the students. After finally finishing their self-study session, Yun Xi and Zhang Peipei agreed to return to the dormitory early. Once they’d arrived downstairs in the dormitory, the four roommates quickly snuck into a dark corner and walked all the way along a sewer ditch through the alley behind the boys’ dormitory. Yun Xi shook the flashlight in her hand and turned her head to look at Jian Junling, who she’d thought was the least courageous among them. “Did you see anything? Are you afraid?” Jian Junling shook her head fervently. “I’m a biology student. Aren’t they just snakes? What is there to be afraid of? Besides, these seem to be nonpoisonous snakes.” Seeing her dismissive expression, Yun Xi couldn’t help teasing her, “I had no idea that you are actually quite bold.” “I’ve also dissected snakes before, so I know very clearly about the anatomical structure of snakes. They’re nothing frightening.” “That’s good! Let’s wait for the great show we’re going to see tonight!” *** Chapter 638: She Wasn’t Even Qualified to Fight Side by Side with Him 　 The lights in the dormitory were turned off at 11:00 p.m. Yun Xi stayed up for the entire time and changed positions with Jian Junling, who slept in the lower bunk. She stayed on guard from the lower bunk. Because it was a dormitory for new students, their dorms were all on the first floor, and their glass windows were half-open and unlocked. From 11:00 p.m. to midnight to 1:00 o’clock in the morning, she kept remembering fighting the wolves and the special forces in Area A. The more she silently recited the gun models that the instructor Zilan had given her, the more concentrated she became, and the less sleepy she turned out to be. 　 　 She hadn’t actually seen how powerful Mu Feichi’s marksmanship was with her own eyes. Whether it was the time General Chen had been attacked or the time he fired several shots in Area A, she hadn’t seen him firing with her own eyes, but had only seen the results of his firing. Whether it was at night or from a helicopter, every shot of his had hit its target. From reaction speed to night vision, what he reflected were the skills of the best soldier in the country. No wonder that he was unwilling to fight side by side with her. It was because she wasn’t qualified to fight side by side with him. She felt very depressed just thinking about it. The more frustrated she felt, the more the unyielding and uncompromising spirit in her blood boiled like fire. When the wind blew, the dash of fire began to turn into a prairie fire. Although her other three roommates had been reminded not to fall asleep, they could barely stay awake all this time. While she was thinking about sniper rifle models, she heard a slight movement from the window. Her bed wasn’t far from the window, and under the windowsill was one of their desks. When the night breeze blew, she vaguely smelled the stench of the sewer. In the dark, her agile eyes flashed slightly, and a cold gleam appeared. Her knife and flashlight, which were covered by the quilt, were tightly held in her hands. She waited silently for the figure behind the windowsill to leave. After he walked away, she sat up in the dark. 　 　 The faint yellow light of her flashlight shone on the desk. She glanced at the black water stain left by the black snake on the desk, then knocked on Jian Junling’s bed rail. “Lingling, wake up!” Jian Junling, who wasn’t deeply asleep, heard her and suddenly opened her eyes and sat up. She touched the flashlight beside her. “What’s the matter? Did he come?” Jian Junling took charge of her nerves and looked at Yun Xi. “Yes!” Yun Xi nodded and shook the flashlight in her hand. A beam of light fell on the three black snakes slithering on the ground. Looking at the snakes on the floor, Jian Junling didn’t seem to be frightened. She just rubbed her nose and frowned, then complained, “They reek! The whole room smells like the sewers.” Yun Xi called both Zhao Yumo and Zhang Peipei. Jian Junling got down from the bed and joined her. “Hit the snakes where it hurts. I’ll help you!” Yun Xi glanced at her. “We have to be careful. Yumo and Peipei, you two get the bag. After we put the snakes in, immediately fasten it!” “Don’t worry. It’ll be a piece of cake!” The four girls joined forces. Yun Xi and Jian Junling caught the snakes, while Zhao Yumo and Zhang Peipei were responsible for tightening the bag containing the snakes. After a while, the three snakes had been thrown into the white bag. After Yun Xi tightened the straps, she winked at the other three. “Okay, let’s go to sleep. I’ll take care of the rest.” “Yun Xi, can you do it? The boys’ dormitory isn’t so easy to get into. What are you going to do?” “I didn’t say that I would enter the boys’ dormitory building. Don’t worry, I have a plan. Just sleep well tonight, and watch to see how Zhou Chengzhe puts on a good show tomorrow.” She wasn’t a soft-hearted person. Zhou Chengzhe had repeatedly provoked her, so if she didn’t teach him a lesson now, she really wouldn’t be living up to her recent training on Tianyu Mountain.
