Chapter 383: Threatened by a Little Girl
Upon hearing Lu Cheng's plan, the Vice Principal originally thought that once today's enrollment procedures for the freshmen were handled, the work would be finished, but didn't expect Lu Cheng to have further arrangements.
However, the Welcome Party Lu Cheng mentioned was also intended for the newly enrolled freshmen.
The Vice Principal nodded and asked, "So what programs are you all preparing?"
Lu Cheng had already planned in his mind and blurted out, "Mainly poetry recitation, singing, dancing, a model drama—anyway we want the students to take part and showcase their talents."
The Vice Principal couldn't help but nod again, discussed briefly on the spot with several leaders, and then gave his approval.
These newly enrolled freshmen originally came from all over, none knowing each other, so holding this Welcome Party was also to help them become familiar and adapt more quickly.
"Alright, Lu Cheng, let the Student Committee handle this, but I'll say it up front: if you don't do it, fine; if you do, do it well, and don't mess it up."
"Don't worry, leaders, we guarantee to complete the task."
The Vice Principal was indeed reassured; although the Welcome Party is a large event, Lu Cheng's ability can fully handle it.
After the leaders wandered off, Lu Cheng stood watching, when suddenly someone patted his right shoulder.
He turned his head, saw no one, but a bell‑like laugh rang from his left.
"Hehe, I'm over here, you fell for my trick, huh?"
Just from the voice he knew who it was, and Lu Cheng's head instantly felt a bit hot.
"Hey, classmate glutinous rice ball, you've been having a good time lately, huh?"
Seeing Lu Cheng pull a face, Yang Yin asked puzzled, "What's wrong? We haven't seen each other for a while, and you look unhappy to see me?"
"Happy? Not a chance. Lately, who let you use my name to bully people everywhere?"
Yang Yin realized what he was referring to, and instantly her eyes curved into crescents again.
"Hehe, you already know! Can't blame me; otherwise they wouldn't follow my commands. Let me tell you some good news: in the last ice‑skating competition, I led Xiao Piqiu and the others to first place, impressive, right?"
One can imagine how hard that first place was to achieve.
Xiao Piqiu and his crew are called thugs because they crave no restraints, yet Yang Yin somehow trained them into dogs.
Lu Cheng was too lazy to argue; today the students start school, and many things are still waiting for his arrangement.
Seeing Yang Yin still carrying luggage, he took his leave and said,
"Alright, as long as you're having fun, hurry and find your dorm; I still have a bit to do."
Yang Yin blocked him, "Hey, wait a second, I can't find the dorm, take me to look, okay?"
"Then I'll assign someone for you, let another classmate take you there."
Lu Cheng was about to call a classmate over, but Yang Yin objected.
"Then you can't take me yourself? I want you to bring me to find the dorm."
Lu Cheng was a bit helpless, "It's not that… why are you clinging to me? I'll just find someone who can help you locate the dorm."
"That's different; you're the President, you taking me back to the dorm saves face."
Lu Cheng laughed, "You're not that old yet, already caring about face."
Yang Yin quickly waved her hand, "No, no, just teasing you. If you take me back, other classmates seeing you're President won't bully me later."
That little girl was full of mischievous ideas.
"What are you trying to use my name for again? Let me tell you, this is school, not the ice rink; if you act like that, I can't take you, lest you tarnish my reputation."
During this period at the ice rink, Yang Yin learned a lot about Lu Cheng's past.
It turned out Lu Cheng used to be like Xiao Piqiu, a street drifter, a petty thug.
"I don't care; I just want you to take me to the dorm. If you don't, I'll tell you, you have leverage in my hands."
Hey, even threatening.
Lu Cheng, unfazed by threats, said, "Come on, tell me, what leverage do I have?"
"Huh? I know you used to be a street drifter, picking up artists everywhere. If you don't take me back, I'll broadcast all your past misdeeds."
Those matters didn't bother Lu Cheng; he immediately grabbed Yang Yin's hand and patted his own face.
"You feel it."
"What do you mean?"
"Feel whether my skin is thick enough!"
Yang Yin understood; Lu Cheng meant his face was as thick as a wall, not fearing any exposure.
Watching Lu Cheng's departing back, Yang Yin, unwilling, shouted again.
"Then I still have a leverage over you! Don't forget how you became President—thanks to my falsifying, and if you don't take me back to the dorm today, I'll report it to the school."
Hearing that, Lu Cheng couldn't help but stop, turned back, while Yang Yin crossed her arms and tilted her head toward the sky.
"Hmph, you're scared now."
Actually, it was a real leverage; Lu Cheng, a bit annoyed, said, "It's not you— you said it was you who falsified, what does that have to do with me?"
Yang Yin lowered her arm, "It's my falsifying, that's fine, but think who suffers the most? If I report to the school, at most they'll criticize me a few lines, but you'd be different—maybe they'd remove you as President."
If I report it to the school, at most I'd get a few criticisms, but you're different; it could even have them remove you, the president, from your post.
If the President election scandal got exposed, Yang Yin indeed wouldn't lose much, but Lu Cheng, who would lose the most, would not only be removed but also bear a falsification charge.
The key is he didn't know beforehand, so where could he argue!
Lu Cheng took a deep breath, recalled carefully that he and Yang Yin had hardly met before, yet this little brat had suddenly cornered him.
Remembering Zheng Guoping's warning to stay away from this little girl, its weight kept rising.
Seeing Yang Yin's smug face, Lu Cheng's temper flared; just as he grabbed her ponytail, Yang Yin shouted, "Ah, it hurts! What are you doing, trying to hit me? I'll tell you, the Principal isn't far, believe it or not I'll tell him right now…"
Lu Cheng had no choice but to release her; fine, he'd just escort her back to the dorm, treating it as helping a new classmate.
Watching Lu Cheng start leading the way, Yang Yin muttered, "Don't walk so fast, I still have luggage."
Lu Cheng had no choice but to let her go—so be it—just escort her back to the dormitory, treating it as a favor to a new classmate.
Watching Lu Cheng start to lead the way, Yang Yin muttered, "Don't go so fast, I still have luggage."
Take it yourself.
I just saw you helping other classmates, and I'm a new student too; can't you treat me the same?
Lu Cheng turned around; Yang Yin thought he was going to help, so she hurriedly handed over her luggage, but Lu Cheng didn't take it.
"Aren't you living in the Capital City? Why didn't you tell your dad, just go home every day—why come to stay in the dormitory?"
Yang Yin pursed her lips: "Huh? I want to live at school, so my mother can't control me and I can be freer."
Lu Cheng shook his head; her temperament was truly wild.
After delivering Yang Yin to the dormitory, the young lady, looking at the shabby surroundings, began to complain again.
"The floor is so dirty, the bed boards are so broken; can you even sleep on something this hard?"
Lu Cheng ignored her complaints; having completed the task of taking her back to the dormitory, he was about to leave, when Yang Yin called out to him again.
Lu Cheng thought Yang Yin wanted to order him to do something again, like sweeping the floor or wiping the table, and he couldn't help feeling angry.
He had never been manipulated by a woman before.
If he didn't give this little girl a taste of his temper today, wouldn't that be the very leverage that lets Yang Yin control him for life?
Glancing at the dormitory, which was still empty for the moment, Lu Cheng thought of scaring her a bit.
When Yang Yin bent over, opening the luggage she carried, Lu Cheng seized the unguarded moment and pressed her down onto the hard board bed.
