Yang Shuhuan promptly added, "His weight is also miles ahead of others."
They started arguing back and forth, and then they started fighting. The noise from behind was deafening. The table was knocked askew and hit the back of a chair, and Xiang Yu's body swayed with the force of the impact.
He exhaled and silently glanced back.
This glance had the same effect as Gu Chen saying a word; the two of them instantly fell silent upon seeing it.
"Heh." Zhang Boyuan leaned over and laughed at the two of them, "Don't make my brother Yu angry, my brother Yu is now the newly crowned school bully of No. 1 High School."
Xiang Yu remained silent upon hearing the term "school bully," showing little reaction.
"What?" Gu Chen, who was busy adding phonetic symbols to the characters, frowned when he heard this and said, "Why are you saying that about my deskmate? School bully is a derogatory term, isn't it?"
Zhang Boyuan was surprised that his class monitor could have such a tricky perspective, and asked in confusion, "Just because Brother Yu took down the former school bully?"
Gu Chen: "Shouldn't they be called campus protectors?"
Hearing this childish nickname, Zhang Boyuan was even more confused: "But that's what they call us on Tieba."
Gu Chen became interested when Tieba was mentioned. He doesn't usually use his phone; when he does, he mostly just reads the news and chats.
He opened his phone and found that he hadn't downloaded the Baidu Tieba app.
Upon seeing this, Wang Zehao immediately opened his phone and handed it to Gu Chen to browse.
- [The glorious moment when Liu Hu fell from his pedestal as the school bully.]
1L: Holy crap, PE class was so exciting! Seeing Liu Hu from PE Class 1 get beaten to a pulp in my lifetime is so satisfying!
The second floor posted several candid photos, all of which showed Liu Hu lying on the ground. The photos were taken from a distance and then zoomed in, so the image quality was quite blurry.
3L: Is that Liu Hu from Class 1 of Physical Education? Holy crap, who's so tough?
4L: Can anyone tell me what's going on? The kid's itching to get involved!
5L: I don't know about the casino, but didn't Liu Hu and Gu Chen have a fight on the second floor this morning?
6L: I don't know what happened on the field, but I'll tell you what I know. This morning, when I went upstairs, I saw Gu Chen helping a female classmate who was being harassed by Liu Hu. Liu Hu even wiped the flag for Gu Chen, hahaha, it cracked me up. In the end, the two didn't fight, and then Tang Weijin came up.
7L: Let me continue. I was stretching on the gym equipment area at the time, so I saw the whole thing. To put it simply, Liu Hu hit Gu Chen with a soccer ball and then got some people to surround Gu Chen and beat him up, but the guy next to Gu Chen took them all down one by one.
8L: I'm a witness too! It was a complete rout, no questions asked.
9L: As a new high school freshman, I don't really understand. Just wondering, who is Liu Hu?

10L: Am I the only one who noticed that the guy in the white T-shirt is kind of good-looking?

20L: I have to take that handsome guy in the white T-shirt. I've already snatched that outstanding campus heartthrob, Gu.
21L: Sisters upstairs, please add me.
22L: Me too, upstairs!
23L: Anyone who dares to take away Boss Gu is a ruthless person, someone who hasn't been poisoned by that mouth?
24L: Hahahaha, Gu is a walking pager.
25L: Brother Chen is a tough guy, but he talks a lot.
26L: Gu is great in every way, except he has a mouth.
27L: As for Gu Chen's sisters, just think about it. Do you remember last semester when a girl confessed her love to her family in public and was persuaded to cry?
28L: Upstairs, Gu Da Lao's original advice was at least an 800-word essay. Let me summarize it here: In short, it can be summed up in six words: Don't fall in love, go study.
29L: Why is everyone talking about Gu Chen? Isn't this post about the school bully?
30L: I think everyone agrees that the newly crowned school bully is the guy in the white T-shirt?
- Reply: I second that.
- Reply: I second that.
After browsing through the forums, Gu Chen felt as if he had opened the door to a new world, the kind that he couldn't close once he opened it. He downloaded the forum app on his phone, registered an account, and then opened several similar posts.
He listens attentively in class, but after class he opens his phone to look at it, sometimes frowning and sometimes grinning foolishly, leaving Xiang Yu next to him completely baffled.
"Brother Yu." As soon as the school bell rang, Xu Youlu came over and said, "My sister said she's taken care of this, so you can rest assured."
Xiang Yu hadn't expected things to go so quickly, but still thanked them nonetheless.
"Oh, no need to thank me." Xu Youluo's dimples appeared with a smile. "I'm treating you to dinner this weekend, so be sure to come!"
"Okay," Xiang Yu replied with a slight smile.
I didn't want to agree to it, but somehow I ended up agreeing.
Xu Youluo was very happy and even added Xiang Yu on WeChat. The two of them were smiling until they said goodbye.
"Classmate." Gu Chen felt a little uncomfortable seeing Xiang Yuchong and Xu Youluo smiling, even though the other party's smile was very faint, or even somewhat perfunctory.
Xiang Yu turned to look at him, and Gu Chen waved the bone-setting medicine in front of him. "Do you remember you promised to help me apply the medicine at noon?"
"Hmm..." Xiang Yu couldn't forget that at noon, this guy was writing a self-criticism, and in the middle of it, he made a request.
"The school doctor said I need to apply the medicine in the morning, noon, and night. Can you help me apply it?" Seeing that he hesitated, Gu Chen felt that there was a chance. He emphasized his words and said sincerely, "I don't want my family to worry."
"good."
Xiang Yu agreed at the time, but now that he thinks about it carefully, why didn't he ask his good brothers?
Looking at Gu Chen again, he was beaming with excitement, waving for Wang Zehao and Yang Shuhuan to leave first.
Xiang Yu: "..." The more he thought about it, the more something seemed off.
[Author's Note: Gu Chen: No matter what I ask for, my deskmate will agree.]

Chapter Fourteen: Gu Chen's Deskmate Cannot Have Early Romantic Relationships, and Must Also Uphold Love and Peace
Chapter Fourteen Gu Chen: Deskmates Can't Fall in Love Too Early, and They Must Maintain Love and Peace
Xiang Yu wanted to accompany Gu Chen to the toilet to apply the medicine, even though he didn't understand why they had to go to the toilet.
Gu Chen's answer was, "If a student who stayed overnight comes back from dinner and sees me taking off my clothes in the classroom, it will have a bad influence."
It sounds ridiculous, but Xiang Yu still went along with it, after all, he had a very high tolerance for injuries.
The two of them went into a toilet stall together. It was quite cramped for two guys over 180cm tall to be alone in one room. There was no one in the toilet at that time. It was dinner time, and there were few people in the whole building. In the small space, you could only hear the two of them breathing and the sound of water flowing in the pipes.
Xiang Yu was busy sending messages to Li Yifan, telling him to go home first, as she had something to do and would be delayed for a while.
Li Yifan responded promptly this time, not keeping Xiang Yu waiting any longer.
When Xiang Yu sent the message, Gu Chen was sizing him up.
Gu Chen spent the whole afternoon browsing the forum, where he found out about his deskmate's name, grade, class, and even his new school bully and heartthrob. During break time, a bunch of girls came to see him outside the classroom, and when they made eye contact with Xiang Yu, they blushed and ran away.
This has happened several times.
etc.
Gu Chen had a sudden flash of inspiration, then frowned.
The cubicle was so small that Gu Chen openly scrutinized people without any attempt to hide it. When Xiang Yu finished sending the message and looked up, she met his gaze and immediately felt uneasy under his stare.
"What's wrong?"
"Classmate." This was definitely the most serious Gu Chen had been in the past two days.
Xiang Yu felt inexplicably nervous, then frowned slightly and asked, "What's wrong?"
"You're not dating too early, are you?"
"..." Xiang Yu was quite taken aback by this person's leap of thought. He told himself that he couldn't leave. You promised someone first, and if you don't keep your word, you might lose your moral compass. "Are you still applying the medicine?" he asked, skipping over the other person's topic.
Gu Chen saw Xiang Yu change the subject and realized something was wrong.
This passing by is evasion, and this evasion probably means something is going on.
"Apply".
Gu Chen remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was already planning how to subtly persuade his deskmate to turn back from the wrong path.
Xiang Yu, of course, didn't know, and asked, "Can you take off your shirt by yourself?"
Gu Chen tried it out. He had applied the medicine at noon and was already able to move his shoulder blades with difficulty. Although it still hurt, it was not difficult to overcome. He took off his hoodie with difficulty and turned his back to the doctor with his bare chest.
Seeing that he was standing very straight, and considering the fluidity of the medicine, Xiang Yu said, "It's easier to apply the medicine if you bend over."
Gu Chen cooperated, bending over within the maximum pain he could tolerate, and obediently let his deskmate apply the medicine to him.
Although Xiang Yu was in a hurry to leave, he didn't skimp on applying the medicine. He poured out small amounts several times and spread them evenly with his fingertips.
Whether it was psychological or not, his fingertips were cool, and when he rubbed them on his wound, Gu Chen felt that his back didn't hurt as much. He even forgot all about the plan he had made in his mind to prevent his deskmate from having an early romance. He glanced back at his deskmate, who was focused on applying the medicine.
Gu Chen said, "You're such a nice person, deskmate!"
Xiang Yu gave a perfunctory "hmm."
He perfunctorily applied the medicine to the other party until Friday, once in the morning, noon and night without fail.
We met at the toilet in the morning, at noon, and in the afternoon.
