Chapter 560: Ay, Uncle~

Hao Ren stood beside a street lamp, looking at her with a smile on his face.
“Jerk!” Zhao Yanzi dashed over to kick Hao Ren.
She had been threatened by hooligans, forced to write a reflection paper, got her phone taken away, and got asked about kissing by Ling… Today couldn’t have gone any worse!
She was wearing a pair of flat sneakers like all other middle schoolers, and her kick didn’t hurt at all.
“Why are you… so mad?” Hao Ren held onto her shoulders to keep her on the ground. Then, he laughed and asked, “You got your phone taken away?”
“It’s all your fault!” Zhao Yanzi got mad again.
However, she soon realized that something was off. “How did you know about it? You can see my classroom from your room?”
“Um…” Hao Ren shook his head. “I assumed because you only responded to one message.”
“You wish! I didn’t even want to reply!” Zhao Yanzi moved Hao Ren’s hands off her shoulders.
Her shoulders were round and soft; it was comfortable to hold.
This was the only way from the academic building to the dorm building, so some students turned to see what was going on as they passed by. They couldn’t see Hao Ren’s face under the dim light and thought he was a random guy who was confessing his love to Zhao Yanzi.
Zhao Yanzi blushed when she sensed the glances, so she dragged Hao Ren away from the road and got near the sports field.
There were no street lamps around the sports field. It was almost nine o’clock, and there were only lights from the dorm building far away; it was almost entirely dark. They wouldn’t even be able to see the way if it weren’t for the moon and the stars.
“So annoying! Who told you to come?” Zhao Yanzi complained as they walked to the sports field.
She appeared to be mad, but she was happy.
She requested to live on-campus to supervise Hao Ren, but the dorm life was pretty dull and strict. Besides the one-hour break at noon and the one-hour break in the evening, they were all locked up at school. It was like a military training camp.
On top of that, the students who lived on-campus had to attend evening self-study sessions as well as clean up the dorms. There were also all sorts of inspections, and Zhao Yanzi was regretting her decision.
Gu Yan and Liu Qiqi were both top students in her class, and they studied hard as soon as the school year started and went back to the dorm room to study right after the self-study sessions. Ling completely put Zhao Yanzi behind her boyfriend, and Zhao Yanzi felt rather bored since she was neither crazy about studying nor had a boyfriend on campus.
She kept walking as she dragged Hao Ren ahead, mumbling about all kinds of things.
Hao Ren listened to her complain as he looked at the running track under the moonlight. He felt as if he were back in his middle school days as he held Zhao Yanzi’s soft hand.
There were several other young couples on the sports field. Teachers were relatively busy since it was the first day of school, and no class advisors had the time to catch them here. Therefore, there were quite a few couples.
“Hey! Why are you not saying anything!” Zhao Yanzi suddenly knocked Hao Ren’s arm.
“I’m listening because you are talking,” Hao Ren answered.
“I’m very chatty, aren’t I?” Zhao Yanzi raised her eyebrow in dissatisfaction. She suddenly realized that she had been talking too much, and Hao Ren wouldn’t be interested in listening to the trivial things that had happened on the first day of school.
Hao Ren laughed and pulled Zhao Yanzi closer.
Zhao Yanzi was about to get mad at Hao Ren’s attitude before he pulled her over.
When he did that, Zhao Yanzi’s heart shivered, and she swallowed her harsh remarks back in.
“Ah! Isn’t that Uncle?”
Ling was taking a walk on the sports field with Liu Yuntao when she saw Zhao Yanzi and Hao Ren.
“Big Brother!” Liu Yuntao shouted in admiration when he saw Hao Ren.
He didn’t dare to call Hao Ren, Uncle, like Ling did. He saw how strong Hao Ren was during the day and admired Hao Ren’s bravery and strength.
He also heard from Ling that he was really good at playing basketball; Ling told him that Hao Ren could throw the ball directly into the basket from the volleyball court when they were back at the old campus.
Hao Ren looked down and smiled. He was a little embarrassed to be seen by them since he came here to see Zhao Yanzi.
“Uncle, how did you get in here?” Ling had met Hao Ren a few times, so she went ahead and asked.
Before Hao Ren could answer, she came up with an answer for him. “You must have climbed over the fence! Haha! You really do everything for Zi!”
She didn’t expect Hao Ren, who had always been quite calm, to climb over the wall to see Zhao Yanzi.
Hao Ren could easily jump over a mountain if he wanted, but it seemed like he was deeply in love with Zhao Yanzi in Ling’s eyes. After all, if he were caught climbing over LingZhao Middle School’s fence, he would be in big trouble.
“Alright, Ling, you are talking too much. Go on with Liu Yuntao!” Zhao Yanzi pushed Ling on her tummy slightly.
Ling covered her tummy and giggled. She left Zhao Yanzi and Hao Ren alone and dragged Liu Yuntao ahead cheerfully.
“Hao Ren seems to be a bit nerdy, but he even climbed over the fence!” Ling thought. She would tease Zhao Yanzi on this topic when they got back to their dorm!
Zhao Yanzi blushed as Ling and Liu Yuntao walked further away. She dragged Hao Ren out of the sports field, and they headed to the stadium.
The weed wasn’t cleared up near the newly-built stadium, but it was the perfect place for the students to go on dates.
Zhao Yanzi didn’t know what to talk about with Hao Ren. However, she felt calm when they were walking together.
Subconsciously, she didn’t want Hao Ren to leave any time soon.
“Is Grade Nine difficult?” Hao Ren asked.
“It’s alright. Today is the first day, so we just went over last year’s content,” Zhao Yanzi answered.
Hao Ren had already reviewed everything with her during summer break, and Zhao Yanzi felt like Hao Ren was even better at explaining things than her teachers.
In reality, Hao Ren did a lot of work in tutoring her. He targeted her weak areas, so she thought he was better.
There was a small alley between the back of the academic building and the stadium. It was darker because it was behind both buildings.
Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi walked across the grass, and they suddenly saw two students kissing under a tree.
Zhao Yanzi stopped immediately and looked over while blushing. Those were Grade Eight students, and they were both in their school uniforms.
Hao Ren noticed that Zhao Yanzi had stopped, so he looked up and saw those students as well.
Those two students saw Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi under the moonlight. They could tell that Hao Ren wasn’t wearing a school uniform, so they quickly ran away since they thought he was a teacher.
“Middle-schoolers nowadays…” Hao Ren was about to tease Zhao Yanzi when he found her biting her lips and standing still.
Hao Ren could feel her pulse through her tender fingertips.
“Hey! You haven’t officially kissed me yet, have you?” Zhao Yanzi pulled Hao Ren’s wrist and looked up at him with her bright eyes.
Um…Hao Ren looked at her, thinking, “Why are you asking like this…”
However, the question sped up Hao Ren’s heart rate.
Zhao Yanzi was the most popular girl at LingZhao Middle School, and there were hundreds of boys who were chasing her or had a crush on her. Her smooth cheek and delicate face made her look like a porcelain doll under the moonlight.
“Why are you suddenly asking this?” Hao Ren asked cautiously.
Hao Ren was quite a nerd without any actual practice in this field. He immediately wondered if there were any tricks with Zhao Yanzi’s sudden question.
“Do you…know how?” Zhao Yanzi looked at Hao Ren angrily.
The second she said that, she realized that she had ruined the atmosphere. However, there was no going back anymore. She wouldn’t be able to go to sleep if she didn’t get this done.
Hao Ren’s face was burning at her question.
He was a bit nerdy, but he had dignity as well!
“Of course… I do!” Hao Ren answered.
Dong! Dong!
Zhao Yanzi’s heart beat faster.
“Damn it. I have never been in this kind of situation…” Zhao Yanzi lightly hit Hao Ren’s chest since he got quiet after saying that.
The atmosphere! It was all gone!
Zhao Yanzi lifted her fist again, but Hao Ren grabbed her arm.
“Hey, you are hurting my chest,” Hao Ren said to her.
When she was about to raise her leg, Hao Ren suddenly held her around her waist.
Hao Ren knocked his finger on her forehead and then pressed his warm lips onto hers.
Zhao Yanzi’s lively body immediately froze.
All those details she was telling Ling escaped her mind, and she completely blanked out.
Her heart almost stopped beating, let alone her tongue.
“Jerk, you are actually kissing me!” Zhao Yanzi thought to herself.
“You are the one who requested it!” Hao Ren gently bit Zhao Yanzi’s lips before he suddenly let her go. Hao Ren vanished behind the fence in a ray of white light, and Zhao Yanzi stood still, blushing.
