Chapitre 24: Chapter 24 - Being a Villain is fun
After wallowing in his new sadness for a long time, Zhu Kang decided to face reality. He had to finish his studies and get a good job. Good enough that he can even work from home, away from horny people.
"This is my new goal! I'm going to be super rich with my talents,"
A sandwich hit him smack in the face. "Talent my ass. You can't even a pick an easy lock.." Gwyn grumbled from the kitchen.
Zhu Kang pouted hard. That morning after having that deep conversation about his horny ahem... pitiful life, his dear brother decided it was a good idea to cheer him up by teaching him how to be a villain.
His first lesson was how to pick a lock.
That goes without saying that he failed at it gloriously.
He glanced at the shattered pieces of the lock with a grunt. "I can easily smash it with my fist. Why do I even need to unlock it with nitpicky pins and needles."
Another sandwich hit his head. "It's called skill. You need it,"
"You are getting meaner by the day," he picked up both the wrapped sandwiches off the floor and walked to the door.
"Where are you going? Hey, I am making curry,"
"Gonna do broke man shit," he mumbled, opening the front door.
"What does that even mean?"
"I'm going to walk to college, darn it! That fucking cab cost me an arm and a leg. I don't think I even have lunch money," he glared at him intensely. "Being poor sucks..."
"We can always rob a..."
"Don't say it. I can barely pick a lock. See you later." he shook his head and slammed the door close.
On the way back, he thought back to all the good things he had in his life to erase the negativity away.
'I have a nice face... I have a nice.. body? no, it's not as good as that Altren's or that Aaron guy's. Fine, I have good grades.... I think....'
'Don't be negative.. There are a lot of good things like... I have a good fashion sense! Yes, I can style this outfit after living so many decades in a monotonous gray outfit...'
'Oh oh, I have this life to be thankful of. Thank god for giving me this chance to live and love again.'
That single thought cheered him up so much.
He happily hummed as he hopped slightly on the sidewalk.
All of a sudden he stumbled on an uneven pavement and fell flat on his face.
"Fuck, fuck being positive. I like being a Grinch today,"
Growling, he rushed his way to his morning classes. The first class only started by 11 am, yet still he wanted to be there in his room and get some sleep while he could.
Just as he was entering, in a corner alley, he saw Jake, the love gel guy, scream at the top of his lungs at a stranger.
'Who might that be? Oh, la la, is that drama I smell.' He secretly hid in a corner and overheard their conversation.
It was mostly just incomprehensible yelling and screaming plus slapping.
The stranger just shook his head and walked away.
Watching this, Zhu Kang had a small thought in his head. 'This Jake guy is fierce even when he is such a shortie.'
"Hey you fucker! What are you looking at!" a sudden shout got him out of his daydream.
Jake was looking at him directly with snot and tear rolling down his pink flushed face.
"Nothing... just a fellow student passing by..," With arms raised, he slowly crept out of his hiding spot. "You don't look that good crying..."
Jake wiped at his face ferociously, making it look even redder. "Fuck you. You... you better not tell anyone about this,"
"My lips are sealed." he sealed his lips as a gesture and walked past him. Curiosity got the best of him. He paused next to him and whispered. "Who was he, by the way? Just asking?"
"My boyfriend.. Fucking ex-boyfriend. Agh! How dare he dump me! Aren't I the best? The bastard doesn't even see my best." He said, wiping his nostrils unceremoniously.
Zhu Kang's brain froze like he ate a Popsicle dipped in shit. 'What did he say.... boyfriend? Isn't he dating... that Altren... isn't he... the protagonist of the story?'
"Hmm, about Altren... do you meet occasionally or something?"
Jake's face lit up as soon as he mentioned that name. "Hey, I have been meaning to ask you. Can you hook me up with Altren? He has been on my list for a long time."
Zhu Kang was remotely curious, but he knew that knowing about this said list will only trouble him at night.
"I don't know... he seems more preoccupied at the moment..."
In the gap when Jake was thinking, he silently slipped away from the small alley into the streets. he ran to the main gate and rushed back home.
'So what does that mean? Altren and Jake are not dating! Isn't that awesome news! I can save this world from being deep-fried! I have found a way to save the world! Hooray to me!!'
He glanced back at Jake. "Hey, by the way, he is very very small!"
Jake's expression shifted slightly. "How small? A pickle?" he held up his index finger.
Zhu Kang shook his head with his eyes wide open in horror. "Beans wide and Brussels Sprouts long," he held up that length with a very bad intension at heart. If it was to separate them, this was the best method.
Jake glanced at his hands and then at his face in horror. "How do you know?"
"Seen it, it's really not pretty. I'm sure that's why he never dates anyone."
Without a word, Jake walked past him. "Never ever bring up that guy in front of me... such a waste of a good face,"
'Yes! Booya!' Zhu Kang mentally cheered watching Jake's desolate back. 'I stand corrected; being a villain is so fun!!!'
