As a result, from the evening readings to the second evening revision class, Zhang Xingkai did not come to seek revenge. Luo Yang was slightly disappointed.
Zhang Xingkai had a nickname which was "Devil," implying that even if he had a minor grievance with someone, he would seek major vengeance. Almost anyone who offended him ended up severely beaten.
As far as Luo Yang knew, up to now, the only people who had grievances with Zhang Xingkai and were still living well were two people, one was Zhu Li, and the other was he himself, Luo Yang.
After the evening revision, members of the Sorority gathered at the school's front gate. Because Zeng Xiaomei was among them, Xiao Daniu did not dare follow, fearing people would say he and Zeng Xiaomei were a couple.
In a large group of girls, there was only Luo Yang, a boy. He was the Sorority's sparring partner, and also considered one of them.
Once everyone arrived, they grandly set off toward Xiaoshulin Market.
Luo Yang naturally became the bodyguard, protecting so many girls was certainly not an easy task. Fortunately, they were headed to Xiaoshulin Market, which was Zhu Li's territory, and they could seek her help if they encountered any trouble.
Everyone rode bicycles, chatting and laughing along the way. They all discussed topics revolving around Luo Yang and were quite interested in him. They also talked about skincare products.
Just before they arrived at Xiaoshulin Market, someone asked if they should have a late-night snack before having fun, to which Zhao Guifang said, "I'll treat everyone to beef soup rice noodles."
So, the group first went to a food stall, shared tables, ordered beef soup rice noodles, and it was served soon after.
Each bowl of beef soup rice noodles came with a few slices of lettuce, although slightly over-mature. Zhao Guifang said, "This lettuce is too old. We have a lot of this at home that we don't even want."
Luo Yang laughed and asked, "Then why does your family buy so much lettuce usually?"
Zhao Guihua replied, "It's not bought. My family grows vegetables, and we have two large vegetable greenhouses."
Hearing this, Luo Yang had an idea and laughed, "My family also wants to start a vegetable greenhouse. Could you tell me how it's done?"
The land had already been rented, and they were going to start constructing a fish pond and a vegetable greenhouse soon. Digging a fish pond was relatively simple, and Luo Zhihai was a professional in fish farming; it wasn't difficult for him. Constructing a vegetable greenhouse was another story; no one in the Hongyun Brigade had built one before, and their farming was direct in the ground, limited, requiring little know-how.
"Sure. I'll ask my dad tonight and then tell you," Zhao Guifang readily said.
Right opposite the food stall was an ice rink. The twin sisters, Chang Fei and Chang Yin, brought up the topic of ice skating. They had never skated before but were interested.
Luo Yang said, "Let's eat quickly, after that I'll take everyone ice skating, and we'll play for an hour before heading to the bar."
The group of girls cheered.
They quickly finished their beef soup rice noodles and crossed the road together to the ice rink. By that time, it was nearly ten o'clock in the evening, and there weren't many people playing inside anymore.
Ice rinks, bars, internet cafes, and arcade centers were entertainment venues, and those who came to play were mostly boys.
Upon entering the ice rink and putting on their ice skates, most of the girls turned out to be beginners and could only stand by holding onto the arena's railing. Those who knew how taught those who didn't, and it was quite lively.
Seeing Hong Jiaxin holding onto the railing afraid to move, Luo Yang approached and smiled, "Come on, monitor, I'll teach you how to skate. It's very simple."
Initially, Luo Yang held Hong Jiaxin's hand, guiding her to glide slowly. But Hong Jiaxin still couldn't stand steadily and kept falling down, so Luo Yang had to move behind her and support her from there; together, they skated and she finally didn't fall so easily.
Skating is also a skill.
Rao Hong Jiaxin was bright, but she hadn't played much before, so her level wasn't up to par.
After practicing for a while, seeing that Hong Jiaxin was panting, Luo Yang said with a smile, "Monitor, let's rest for a bit. You're tired. Take it slow; there's no rush. With your ability, you can learn it quickly."
Hong Jiaxin was a top student and was not willing to admit defeat easily.
Seeing Luo Yang's teasing tone, Hong Jiaxin coldly smiled, "I'll learn it tonight! If you won't teach me, fine. I can learn by myself!"
If Luo Yang wasn't supporting her, she would easily fall down.
He was only asking her to rest because she was tired.
Luo Yang laughed and said, "Class monitor, there's no need to go all out like this. Trying to get fat in one bite, aren't you being a bit too eager?"
Unlike other beauties, once Hong Jiaxin decided to do something well, she would give it her all.
She found skating quite interesting and thought she could learn it quickly, saying, "I'll learn it tonight. No need for you to teach me."
Despite her words, Luo Yang still supported her to prevent her from falling.
Before Luo Yang and the others entered the skating rink, there were a few young men playing around. Suddenly, seeing so many beautiful girls, these young men came up to strike up a conversation. One of the long-haired young men, unable to succeed in his advances, became annoyed and actually tried to forcefully pull Huang Chunli, a member of the Sorority, away from the iron fence.
Thereupon, Huang Chunli cried out, and Luo Yang and Hong Jiaxin skated over together.
"Senior sister, what happened?" Hong Jiaxin asked with concern.
Huang Chunli was a senior in high school.
"I don't want him to teach me, but he's insistent," Huang Chunli pointed at the long-haired young man.
"If she doesn't need your help, why are you being presumptuous?" Hong Jiaxin scolded the long-haired young man and then comforted Huang Chunli, "Senior sister, let Luo Yang teach you later."
At that moment, Luo Yang and Hong Jiaxin stood side by side, staring coldly at the long-haired young man.
The atmosphere suddenly tensed up.
That long-haired young man had always been jealous of Luo Yang and glared, saying, "Looking for a fight?!"
With that, he skated over. The other young men also surrounded them.
Luo Yang first moved Hong Jiaxin to the side of the iron fence, then turned to face the young men and said coldly, "Apologize to my senior sister, all of you. Then I might consider letting you go."
As a result, those young men burst into laughter, finding Luo Yang's words amusing.
Luo Yang went up and threw a punch, knocking the long-haired young man to the ground instantly. The other few young men who skated up to the attack were quickly knocked down by Luo Yang.
In just an instant, the previously arrogant long-haired young man and his companions were lying on the ground, screaming in pain.
Under Luo Yang's demand, the long-haired young man had to apologize and make amends to Huang Chunli. Once he received Huang Chunli's forgiveness, he and his group left with their tails between their legs.
All the girls were thrilled to see Luo Yang's bravery. After all, offending people is easy in such an entertainment venue, and without some real skills, one can get beaten until even their mother wouldn't recognize them.
Afterward, Luo Yang continued to teach Hong Jiaxin how to skate.
Honestly, Hong Jiaxin learned quite quickly; she had a good sense of balance.
About 5 minutes later, suddenly a group of young men surged into the skating rink, about a dozen of them. The long-haired young man was notably among them, clearly having gone out to call for backup.
The members of the Sorority were very nervous, all looking towards Luo Yang.
"What should we do?" Hong Jiaxin asked.
"It's okay, take a rest. Let me handle this," Luo Yang said with a smile.
"There are so many of them, can you win?" Hong Jiaxin asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, I can handle it. Class monitor, just enjoy your skating. I can take care of them by myself," Luo Yang said confidently.
With the True Qi inside Luo Yang's body, not to mention dealing with a few thugs, even if many more came, he could handle them with ease.
Moreover, fighting was Luo Yang's forte; he was highly experienced.
After assuring the beauties not to panic, Luo Yang took off his skates and jumped out of the rink from the iron fence.
