"Hughes White?"
Lynn tried hard to recall, but couldn't remember there being such a person in Macon High School.
Apart from anything else, as a public middle school, I have never seen any student here who is rich enough to drive a sports car to school.
"I just transferred here a few days ago." Hughes White was born with a playboy's face, and with the temperament of not caring about anything that he had developed after being familiar with the world, he seemed unusually easy-going.
"Nice to meet you." Don't hit a smiling person, and Lin En did not detect any malice in this person.
Seeing that Lin En did not refuse, Hughes White laughed frankly. He was a bit familiar with others. Then he made a salute gesture towards Lin En and said with a beaming face:
"Hey, that last blow you gave Bob was really powerful. The big fool fell to the ground immediately. I heard them say that what you used was kung fu, right?"
Wow, did I get a fanboy? Lin En was not used to this kind of American enthusiasm and felt a little embarrassed.
"Oh, that's not Kung Fu, just some basic reactions..."
"But it's very cool, even cooler than in the movies! To me, that's definitely not something that ordinary people can do." Hughes White recalled the scene he had seen before, still feeling unsatisfied.
"From what I know, real kung fu is much more powerful than those few moves I have."
Hearing that Lin En had been unwilling to admit it, Hughes White's eyes actually showed a bit of loneliness, and he said: "You Orientals are too fond of modesty."
However, he was not discouraged by this, and immediately shook his eyebrows and said:
"Hey, man, I'm throwing a transfer party at my house this weekend. Do you want to come? The party needs a cool guy like you." Hughes White went around in circles and finally got to the point.
“This…” Speaking of which, Lin En is a stay-at-home guy who is not really interested in socializing, especially during his free time on weekends. He would rather hide in his attic and play console games than go to a party where he doesn’t know anyone.
"Believe me, this party will definitely not disappoint you." Hughes White looked eager.
Unable to refuse the invitation, Lin En found that he had no choice but to agree. He shrugged and said, "OK, I will attend if I have nothing to do."
"It would be my pleasure. See you that Friday."
“sure.”
As Hughes White stepped on the accelerator, the roar of the engine resounded throughout the street again. Lynn looked at the dust going away, smiled bitterly and shook his head. It was only the first day of school, and he was forced to fight and socialize. He was getting further and further away from the plan he had made at the beginning to become a nobody.
However, he was still quite curious about what the party that Hughes White mentioned, which "would never let him down", looked like.
For a group of high school students, the focus of the party is always girls. Could it be that Hughes White has a good appeal to beautiful girls
Thinking of this, Lin En couldn't help feeling cheerful. During these days in New York, he had never really experienced the decadent petty bourgeois life. At the party on Friday, he could put himself in their shoes and criticize it.
In the next few days, Lin En commuted between school and home every day, attending classes during the day and learning magic at night. His life was very leisurely.
Since the news of him beating up Bob on the first day of school had spread, many people would greet him when they saw him. As time went by, people recognized him wherever he went, and he became a celebrity in the school.
Some brave ones would even raise their fists in front of Lin En to pay tribute to his glorious deeds of using oriental martial arts to fight against school bullies. Whenever this happened, Lin En would always feel awkward because his mediocre skills would only bring shame to oriental martial arts.
In response to Lin En's refusal, others unanimously believed that it was the traditional oriental implicit beauty and a manifestation of the Kung Fu master's high spiritual realm, and they gave him a thumbs up.
After all, who would have thought that a wizard's soul was hidden under an oriental face, and that a melee guy was actually a spellcaster
In contrast to these people, Bob and his gang became more low-key after they suffered a setback. They usually stayed away from Lynn when they saw him, looking like they were scared.
Bonnie Beth was a little different, because she was in the same class as Lynn and they sat before and after each other, so she couldn't avoid it. So she just did the opposite and tried to get close to Lynn these days.
"Lynn, I heard that the last time you and Bob had a fight was because of this girl?" After Lynn once again ignored Bonnie Beth's courtesy, Hughes White was surprised. He had become familiar with Lynn in the past few days and often had lunch with him in the restaurant.
"Yes, why are you asking this?" Lin En said unhappily.
"Hey, man, you Orientals are good in everything except that you are too dull. I bet that Bonnie Bass is definitely interested in you." Hughes White seemed very experienced.
"Come on, she had someone beat me into a pig the other day."
"Women are fickle." At this time, Hughes White was like a philosopher, giving a conclusion with vicissitudes and melancholy.
"If I remember correctly, you are only 17 years old. Do you have such a rich love history?"
"Oh, a conservative Oriental." Hughes White looked at Lynn in mockery, pretending to be surprised, and then shook his head.
"Can't you tell? I think if you're interested in her, you two might be able to succeed. How about I invite her to the party tonight, and then you can..."
"Shut up, she's coming again."
"Hey, Lynn."
Bonnie Beth did not wear smoky makeup today, but a more refreshing one. If you look closely, you will find that she used shadows to make her nose look more delicate, which reduced the aggressiveness of her sharp and three-dimensional face and seemed to be more in line with the aesthetic of Oriental people.
She looked a little uneasy and hesitated to speak.
"Hi Bonnie, what's up?"
Hughes White was not afraid of the big deal and agreed to it first.
"Um... I just came to remind you... I don't know if you have noticed Bob and the others... They have been acting very secretive recently... You'd better be careful of them..."
I didn't expect Bonnie Beth to come to tip off.
"Bob? They have indeed been acting sneaky these days." Lynn pondered for a moment after hearing the news. He didn't expect this group of people to be so stubborn that they actually wanted to take revenge on him.
"It's different this time, Linn... This time they seem to have found someone outside the school. I heard it's... Red-Eyed Jack from the Snakehead Gang..." Bonnie Bass was a little nervous.
"Snakehead Gang? Red-Eyed Jack?"
For a moment, Lynn didn't know what to say.
