Chapter 70: Brother Number Five

~7 min read 1,311 words

Hearing what the three girls said, the Dean of Students’ face turned ugly. He had already lowered his status so much, yet he hadn't expected that we still wouldn't buy it. However, he also saw that the key lay with me, so the Dean of Students said to me, "Yang Yun, after school, he will definitely do what he promised you. Can you all please go back to class first?"

"Sorry, no. And I told you before, you will come back to beg me. If I don't see Liu Shuang apologize and keep his promise, I won't come back!" After saying this, I put on my schoolbag and strode away.

The Third Brother and the three girls beside me all followed and left as well.

Afterward, it was obvious that the school was in an uproar. The principal found out about this and was furious, ordering the Dean of Students that if he didn't bring the people back, he should just go home and farm. This forced the Dean of Students to find his own son, Liu Shuang.

Although Liu Shuang was extremely reluctant to agree to this bet, there was no other way. By comparison, his father's job was more important; after all, more than half of the family's income relied on his father. If his father lost his job, his family would definitely be in a very difficult spot.

Because Su Xue was afraid her mother would ask why she wasn't at school, she didn't dare go home and asked me to go out and play.

This was the first real date for Su Xue and me. Although we had both essentially been through the bridal chamber, when it came to a date, we were both quite shy, standing together not knowing what to say to each other.

"Let's go to the amusement park?" To break the awkward situation, I spoke up first. The amusement park was all I could think of right now.

"Hmm, okay, I've never been there before!" Su Xue also nodded happily. She had longed for the amusement park since she was a child, but due to her family's circumstances, she never had the money to go; otherwise, she would have wanted to see it a long time ago.

"But do you have money? If not, should we look at something else?" Thinking of the prices at the amusement park, Su Xue was still a bit hesitant. She knew I wasn't a child from a wealthy family either.

"It's fine, don't worry. I still have some left from my part-time job at the KTV!"

Hearing my words, Su Xue nodded, and the two of us arrived at the only amusement park in the city. Fortunately, it wasn't the weekend, so there weren't too many people, but there were still several people in line, and we queued up behind them.

Just at this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Move, move!"

Hearing this, I was a bit unhappy. I glared at the fat figure behind me and said angrily, "What are you doing? Don't you know how to queue?"

"Give me your spot, I'll give you money, you go to the back and queue!" The fat man had the look of a nouveau riche, with a pretty-looking girl beside him. It looked like he was mostly trying to show off to please his girl.

"Is having money so great? If you're so rich, why don't you have the ability to rent out the whole amusement park and play all day!" I said angrily, in a bad mood.

The fat man got a bit angry, rushed over, grabbed my clothes, and cursed, "Are you looking to die? You!"

However, as he spoke and looked at me, his gaze suddenly went blank. I was also stunned for a long time, because I discovered that the fat man in front of me was actually very familiar.

"Fourth Brother? Fourth Brother, it’s actually you!" The fat man hugged me excitedly.

Hearing this, I suddenly remembered that the fat man in front of me was none other than Zhang Wu, who was ranked fifth in our orphanage when we were young.

"Damn, Number Five, I didn't expect you to have grown so fat, and you even wanted to teach me a lesson, you're quite capable!" I patted Zhang Wu's back heavily and said.

"Fourth Brother, what are you saying? I just didn't recognize you earlier. If I had known it was you, how would I have dared!" Zhang Wu said with a loud laugh.

"Fatty, who is this? Didn't you say you were going to help me buy tickets quickly?" The girl behind him looked surprised.

"Weiwei, this is my Fourth Brother. We were sworn brothers when we were little. I didn't expect to run into him here!" Zhang Wu said to the girl behind him.

Zhang Wu then introduced me: "Fourth Brother, this is my girlfriend, Hu Wei!"

"Who is your girlfriend? What nonsense are you spouting? Believe it or not, I'll turn around and leave right now!" Hu Wei was furious when she heard Zhang Wu's words.

Zhang Wu scratched his head awkwardly and said, "It's only a matter of time. Both our families have already arranged it, it's no use if you want to go back on it!"

"Hmph, when I go back, I'll find my dad and make him change his mind!" Hu Wei said angrily.

"Don't do that, Weiwei, it's all my fault. From now on, whatever you say goes!" Zhang Wu hurriedly begged for mercy.

Seeing them bickering, Su Xue and I both chuckled. Zhang Wu also saw Su Xue, was surprised for a moment, and then looked at me with admiration, saying, "Fourth Brother, is this the sister-in-law?"

I looked at Su Xue's reaction, and seeing that she didn't refuse, I smiled and nodded.

"Impressive, Fourth Brother. I didn't expect sister-in-law to be so beautiful. It seems Fourth Brother is quite good at picking up girls and chasing women?" Zhang Wu teased me.

"What? You want to learn?" Hu Wei suddenly grabbed Zhang Wu's ear and said angrily.

Zhang Wu howled in pain twice: "Weiwei, don't, we're outside, save me some face!"

Hu Wei snorted and let go. After we bought our tickets and went in, Hu Wei and Su Xue inexplicably became familiar with each other. Both of them went off happily to play various attractions, acting as if Zhang Wu and I didn't exist. However, this made it easier for Zhang Wu and me to catch up.

Through our conversation, I learned that after Zhang Wu ran away back then, he met a good family who adopted him. Moreover, because his adoptive parents couldn't have children, they were especially good to Zhang Wu. Plus, Zhang Wu was very likable, so his adoptive parents treated him just like their own son. Furthermore, his family's situation was very good, ranking among the best in their city, and they had quite a bit of money. His family and Hu Wei's family had been friends for generations, so their fathers had arranged the marriage for them. This time, he and Hu Wei just happened to be here to play, and they didn't expect to run into us.

However, Zhang Wu was incredibly excited to hear that both the Third Brother and I were here, and he insisted on treating us to dinner that night. Among the brothers we knew of, Number Five was doing quite well. I didn't rule out the element of luck, but I wasn't envious; instead, I was genuinely happy for him. If only the other brothers could be like him.

"Ah, you bastards, that's too much!" Suddenly, a voice came from not far away. This voice was none other than Hu Wei's.

Hearing this, both Zhang Wu's and my expressions changed. We knew something might have happened and hurriedly ran over.
