Niu ShiLi, who won the bet with Fu Yan Jie, made eye contact with me many times. I reminded him with my gaze: "Did you forget something?" but he didn't respond at all.
I was even a bit worried that Niu ShiLi was purposely keeping me in suspense so that I wouldn't know when my bad luck would befall me — — I almost couldn't bring myself to mention Fu Yan Jie.
Right at this moment, Sun Yu, who had contributed the least in the matches and would visit the infirmary whenever he had nothing to do, walked in front of me with an unopened bottle of Fu Yan Jie.
"Hehe, Ye Lin, you can't go back on your word after losing the bet." Sun Yu said with a smile, "The school doctor heard about your bet and donated a new bottle of Fu Yan Jie … are you going to go back on your word as our class' PE committee member?"
At this time, the class leader was called away by teacher Yu. Xiao Qin sat next to me and clenched her fists as if she wanted to crush Sun Yu to death. But due to her androphobia, she couldn't do anything.
Everyone's gazes focused on me when Sun Yu suddenly brought it up.
Xiong YaoYue separated the crowd and stood in front of me to express her grievances.
"Hey, hey! Ye Lin worked so hard for our class to win, but not only did you not thank him, you even brought up the matter of Fu Yan Jie. Do you guys still have any humanity left? "
"That's right!" Loud Mouth also chimed in, "Sun Yu, you didn't even play for 10 minutes in all three matches, yet you remember other people's matters. Everyone's happy, so why did you suddenly come out to cause trouble? "
Sun Yu's expression was a bit awkward, but he didn't give up. He placed the bottle of Fu Yan Jie on my table and said:
"That's completely different. I'm happy our class won, but it's also important to admit defeat. Otherwise, no one will believe anything the PE committee member says next time. "
Xiong YaoYue and Loud Mouth still wanted to defend me, but I stopped them and stood up from my seat. Other than Niu ShiLi, everyone else was a bit shorter than me.
Sun Yu took a step back in case I hit him. He used his gaze to try and get the support of the other basketball players, but he didn't get any response.
After winning this life and death struggle, the other team members already saw me as a comrade, which made me feel very gratified.
Although it was not impossible to gloss over the Fu Yan Jie incident, a man would not go back on his word. I glanced at Sun Yu with disdain (he timidly retreated further away) and forcefully opened the bottle of Fu Yan Jie on the table. I raised my hand, tilted my head back, and poured it down my throat.
If you want to know if Fu Yan Jie is sour, sweet, or salty, I can tell you now that I have personally experienced it: it's sour and sweet, and there's a hint of pregnancy!
Just like what Director Cao had said, Fu Yan Jie had a strange fragrance when you sniffed it, but it tasted weird when you drank it! It makes me suspect that this is distillers grains from the Tsar era mixed with vinegar from the Qianlong era.
"Ye Lin classmate, no!" Xiao Qin whimpered next to me. She didn't want to see my twitching expression, so she covered her face.
Xu LiJun gave me a thumbs up and praised: "You're a real man! Respect, respect! "
Respect my ass! I only drank half of it and I already want to vomit! If I drink any more, I'll get pregnant!
But face is important! I can't give up halfway in front of everyone! No matter how uncomfortable it is, I have to hold on, hold on!
At this moment, he suddenly felt a strong hand grab Fu Yan Jie's bottle and snatch it away without any explanation.
Even if my stamina was declining, the only person in class 2-3 who could easily do this was the stocky Niu ShiLi.
I was confused as I didn't know why Niu ShiLi snatched the bottle. I was about to ask, but I heard Niu ShiLi say:
"I was the one who made the bet with Ye Lin, I'm sorry I dragged everyone from the basketball team into this." He paused for a bit and said, "The entire process took a lot of effort, if there's no result, some people might not be satisfied — —"
Then, Niu ShiLi's tone became heavier and he stared in Sun Yu's direction. Sun Yu felt even more isolated.
"But in today's match, Ye Lin took half of the credit. Also, someone told me that if Ye Lin didn't save the last ball and give it to me, then the person who would be drinking Fu Yan Jie right now wouldn't be him, it would be me."
These words came from the bottom of his heart. Although there weren't any flowery words, they were powerful and moved me.
Niu ShiLi and I looked at each other. We used to be like fire and water, but now his eyes were brimming with the passion of a comrade.
"That's why." Niu ShiLi said loudly, "A man's words carry enormous weight. Since someone wants one of us to drink Fu Yan Jie, then we'll let Ye Lin drink half and I'll drink the other half."
Then, Niu ShiLi opened his mouth, raised his neck and drank the rest of the Fu Yan Jie in one gulp until the bottle was empty and not a single drop could be poured out.
My little friend and I were stunned! Regardless of whether we had friends or not, the surrounding students were also stunned!
Niu ShiLi put the empty bottle on the table with a fierce expression of 'whoever doesn't agree, come over'.
Who the fuck dares to come over! You drank half a bottle of Fu Yan Jie so happily, your fighting strength is off the charts! Even the main characters in wuxia novels who drank the Golden Elixir Jade Elixir are not your opponent! Because the liquid that can truly increase fighting strength isn't that tasty!
It's like the holy water in Dragon Ball that Immortal Garin gave Goku to drink, it's basically poison! Don't even mention the taste, maybe you can only become a true expert after drinking the horrible taste of the liquid. Fu Yan Jie is a necessary test to become a man!
What … what kind of power is this? I feel like I'm getting stronger bit by bit, is this the effect of Fu Yan Jie? Was it my misconception?
Oh, it really was my misconception. I just felt like I was losing out after drinking Fu Yan Jie, so I wanted to trick everyone to drink it with me. If anyone was tricked, then I'm very sorry, but isn't it an interesting experience (laugh)?
I was so touched by Niu ShiLi who stood on my right and helped me finish the remaining half bottle of Fu Yan Jie! I wasn't wrong, the friendship between men is purer and more reliable! There's no need for a thousand words or sweet nothings, sometimes it only takes a glance to confirm that we've become friends!
And this friendship is the friendship of drinking the same bottle of Fu Yan Jie! Outsiders have no way of understanding the taste, unless you also drink Fu Yan Jie! (Seriously, just a sip. I'm Chinese and I've even eaten gutter oil and Sudan red wine. If I don't drink a sip of Fu Yan Jie, I won't be able to go out and greet people.) Of course, this is also related to the fact that Niu ShiLi snatched the bottle of Fu Yan Jie and drank it without even wiping it. In theory, this is called … an indirect kiss …
Luckily Little Smart isn't in the classroom! If she saw it, I don't know what kind of scary BL story she would come up with! I don't want to become the prototype for her published work!
It was at this moment that I realized that Sun Yu had slipped away. He had acted as a vile person for nothing, and had caused the friendship between Niu ShiLi and I to deteriorate. He was really asking for trouble.
Although we did what we said and acted heroically, Niu ShiLi and I also paid the price — — we couldn't even eat lunch.
The most infuriating thing was that after Xiao Qin determined I wouldn't die from the poison, she asked me curiously:
"Ye Lin classmate, does Fu Yan Jie taste good?"
Taste my ass! I rinsed my mouth 50 times afterwards, but I couldn't get rid of the taste in my mouth! Now I feel nauseous when I burp, and nausea when I feel nauseous … no, vomit!
Niu ShiLi's situation was not much better. We both saw each other in this miserable state and had a tacit understanding.
I heard if you're poisoned by heavy metals, you can drink milk to neutralize the toxins. Although Fu Yan Jie isn't a heavy metal, it still has a heavy taste. I asked Xiao Qin to help me buy a carton of milk and she happily agreed.
What surprised me was that even though I forgot to tell her, Xiao Qin also bought Niu ShiLi's share.
"Ye Lin classmate, I have a good impression of Niu ShiLi because he drank half of the Fu Yan Jie for you." Xiao Qin said to me, "But I still don't dare to talk to boys, so I can't apologize to him. Does buying him milk count as me apologizing?"
Seeing that I didn't respond, Xiao Qin pleaded with tears in her eyes: "If one carton of milk isn't enough, I'll use my own pocket money to buy many cartons of milk to apologize! Ye Lin classmate, please forgive me for hitting Niu ShiLi before! "
If I think about it, it's a bit difficult for Xiao Qin, who has androphobia, to apologize to Niu ShiLi. Also, it's hard to guarantee that she won't continue to force He Ling to be Niu ShiLi's girlfriend. Since she's willing to buy milk for Niu ShiLi, it means she wants to apologize, so I'll forgive her for now.
Xiao Qin put her hands on her chest and breathed a sigh of relief when she heard I won't pursue the matter with Niu ShiLi anymore.
I held the straw in my mouth and handed the other carton of milk to Niu ShiLi.
"You haven't eaten anything either, right? Drink some milk, otherwise you might not be able to handle it in the afternoon. "
Niu ShiLi was stunned and didn't immediately take it. I laughed: "What, don't you drink milk because your surname is Niu?"
Niu ShiLi laughed, "Nonsense! Milk is meant for cows to drink, okay? "
He grabbed the milk and gulped it down. We looked at each other and smiled.
But don't misunderstand, it's not like what Little Smart thinks, there's something going on between the two of us. It's just that compared to Fu Yan Jie, milk is way too delicious.
If you starved for ten days and suddenly had a full meal, you would also smile.
After recovering a bit of stamina, I was looking forward to the women's volleyball finals in the afternoon. I heard that even though the class leader can't see well, she will still be able to defend her title.
That means I can finally see the class leader's heroic appearance in volleyball shorts! What a great benefit! Sure enough, happiness comes after suffering! Fu Yan Jie really is a miracle medicine that makes people's luck better! (If any of you feel like you're unlucky, I highly recommend you give it a try)
