If You Don’t Go To Hell, Who Will? - Chapter 40
(T/N:Hi, I’m Hana, and I’m start to translate this novel from this chapter. I hope you like my work.)
Because Zhong Yuan became my boyfriend, following tradition, he had to treat the three wolves in our dormitory to a meal. I asked Zhong Yuan where we should go, and after a moment of thought, he replied, “How about Linjiang Pavilion?”
I wiped my sweat and said, “Isn’t it a bit pricey?”
However, Zhong Yuan looked at me with a knowing look and mischievously smiled, “Block head, are you so eager to help me save money?”
I… ahem, I blushed once again…
…
I only had one class in the morning, so after the class ended, I hurried back to the dormitory to catch some sleep. I slept until the evening, and when I woke up, I joined forces with Eldest, Second, Fourth, and Zhong Yuan to gather together. We excitedly headed towards Linjiang Pavilion.
Seated in a private room, the group hesitantly flipped through the menu, trying not to order anything too expensive, despite their previous insistence on making Zhong Yuan foot the bill.
At that moment, a passerby cheered them on, saying, “Ladies, don’t hold back. Zhong Yuan, this guy, being a long-term capitalist infiltrator in our proletarian group, he deserves to be taught a lesson.”
Another passerby chimed in, “Absolutely, absolutely. This guy has been acting tyrannical and causing trouble in the neighborhood for quite some time. I, too, am a perpetually oppressed and enslaved individual. Let’s take out our frustrations today.”
I silently watched the second passerby. Senior brother, you’re not alone…
Meanwhile, Zhong Yuan held my hand, radiating a cheerful mood. He smiled warmly and addressed everyone, saying, “Being polite to me means being polite to Block Head.”
That single statement successfully triggered an outburst of laughter and cheers from everyone. The first passerby kept repeating, “No need to hold back, no need to hold back… Waiter, stir-fry this menu for us first!”
And so, the atmosphere at the table became vibrant. With our familiar camaraderie, there was no need for excessive politeness. Each of us eagerly ordered our preferred dishes. Senior brothers One and Two even engaged in a lively debate over whether the sea bass should be grilled or steamed. Finally, Zhong Yuan tapped the table and declared, “Bring us two portions, one steamed and one grilled.”
I stared at the price of the sea bass on the menu and silently sighed, Zhong Yuan, you spendthrift…
The drinks and dishes arrived quickly. In the first round, we all toasted together. Zhong Yuan went around pouring drinks for everyone at the table. When it was my turn, he only poured a little into my glass, just as a gesture.
The people around us protested, clamoring for him to fill my glass. In response, he raised an eyebrow and calmly said, “I’ll drink double.”
That single sentence sparked another round of commotion.
Feeling a bit embarrassed, I tugged at his sleeve and said, “Actually, I can handle it…”
Zhong Yuan looked at me with a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes and whispered, “With your tolerance and alcohol choice? Just take off your clothes or something, but only in front of me.”
I nervously wiped my sweat, unable to bear the memories. Oh, the memories I’d rather forget…
And so, we began to eat. This place truly lived up to its reputation as an expensive restaurant; the food was indeed excellent. As I happily indulged in the meal, Zhong Yuan and I played a game of feeding each other with chopsticks. The onlookers couldn’t help but express their discomfort, reminding us of their presence. However, as I raised my head, I saw Lu Zijian picking out a bone from a piece of fish and placing the meat on the fourth girl’s plate. Yet, everyone turned a blind eye to it, continuing to tease me and Zhong Yuan.
Hey, hey, hey, let’s not be so selectively oblivious. >_<
At the beginning, everyone ate and laughed together, but as time went on, it turned into a drinking session. Zhong Yuan was particularly unrestrained today, accepting any drink that came his way and downing it in one go. At the same time, he kept an eye on me, forbidding me from drinking. Whenever I touched my glass, he would bring up the “taking off clothes” incident, making me blush at the mere sight of a drink… I really have no self-control.
So, apart from me, the remaining six people went crazy and formed a revolving wheel to pour drinks for Zhong Yuan. It started with beer, but later they felt it wasn’t enough and switched to white liquor… It was outrageous!
I couldn’t bear to watch anymore and stopped Zhong Yuan’s hand holding the glass. “Stop drinking…”
Zhong Yuan ruffled my hair and smiled, squinting his eyes. “Are you worried about me?”
The response to that single sentence was as follows:
Xiao Er: “Worried, huh…”
Eldest: “Worried, indeed…”Passerby A: “My stomach hurts.”
Passerby B: “My teeth hurt.”
Fourth Sister: “Haha.”
Lu Zijian: “Hehe.”
Me: -_-
Zhong Yuan finished his drink, sat down with a smile, and said, “No more drinking; let’s eat. Waiter, let’s order another round of dishes.”
That single sentence triggered a howl from the group.
Looking at the unfinished dishes on the table, I silently lamented the waste and how shameful it was to waste…
So, everyone temporarily ceased the attack on Zhong Yuan and began to eat, drink, and chat. The few of us had already become quite close during the summer break, and now we talked about anything and everything.
As the conversation flowed, somehow we ended up talking about games.
The moment games were mentioned, Xiao Er’s eyes glinted with hostility. “Don’t mention games. Whenever I hear ‘game,’ I think of that heart-wrenching Sword Legend.”
Sword Legend was the online game that Xiao Er had been playing recently, and it was also the game that had thoroughly crushed her.
Upon hearing this, two passersby, Passerby A and Passerby B, became interested. Passerby B asked, “Are you also playing Sword Legend? Which server are you on?”
Passerby A inquired, “What’s your character’s name? Which class do you play?”
Xiao Er replied, “I’m on the Jiangshan Ruhua server. Speaking of which, there’s this psycho who keeps chasing me and killing me. I grind my teeth in frustration, but I can’t do anything about him.”
Passerby A lightly tapped the table and smirked, “Who dares to bully our second junior sister?” Junior sister, don’t worry. I’ll avenge you. With my skills, there are few rivals in Jiangshan Ruhua. We’ll take his head and loot his equipment. If you’re still unsatisfied, I can also offer services like hacking accounts and altering information for a free trial. Satisfaction guaranteed.”
Xiao Er’s eyes lit up. “Really?”
Passerby A nodded confidently and said, “Don’t worry, leave it to me. Junior Sister, quickly tell me that scoundrel’s name. Tonight, I’ll make sure he has no place to rest in peace.”
Gratefully, Xiao Er looked at Passerby A and said, “That’s great! That scoundrel’s name is Chen Xingshi. He’s a twisted mage. I don’t know if you’ve heard of him.”
Suddenly, Passerby A’s self-assured smile froze on his face. He stared at Xiao Er intently, his gaze inexplicably eerie.
Sensing something was wrong, Xiao Er tilted her head and asked, “What’s the matter with you?”
Passerby A remained silent.
Xiao Er smiled understandingly and said, “It’s alright if you can’t beat him. After all, that scoundrel, Chen Xingshi, is quite notorious in Jiangshan Ruhua. It’s normal to be unable to defeat him. No need to feel embarrassed.”
Passerby A continued to stay silent.
Confused, Xiao Er reached out and waved her hand in front of Passerby A, saying, “Hey, what’s wrong with you?”
Suddenly, Passerby B’s voice drifted over: “He is that scoundrel.”
Silence.
Silence.
Still silence.
At this moment, the situation on the scene dramatically flipped.
The first to awaken from the silence was Xiao Er. She narrowed her eyes dangerously and stared at Passerby A. Through gritted teeth, she asked, “It’s you?”
Passerby A moved his lips, attempting to explain, but Xiao Er interrupted, “You’re Chen Xingshi?”
Passerby A’s confidence diminished instantly, hesitating as he asked, “You… You’re not… a… you know?”
Xiao Er’s expression turned dark like a heavy raincloud. “A… you know?!”
“Cough, cough. That’s not what I meant.” Passerby A’s eyes flashed with confusion, and his brows furrowed. Muttering to himself, he said, “But I checked your registration information, and it clearly stated that you’re a male in your identity verification.”
“Can’t I use my brother’s ID to register? No, wait. You…” Xiao Er’s complexion turned into a dense thundercloud. “Did you peek at my information?”
“Well, I… hehe, hehehe…” Passerby A laughed awkwardly, looking at Xiao Er without knowing what to say.
Xiao Er slammed the table hard and squeezed out two words through her teeth: “Per-vert!”
“Junior Sister, it’s actually a misunderstanding, I…”
Suddenly, Xiao Er turned her body around, grabbed the front of his collar with both hands, and faced him with a fierce and menacing expression. Her expression indicated that she had gone berserk.
I couldn’t help but wipe away my sweat. Xiao Er, although a bit sleazy, usually had a good temper. It was quite difficult to make her go berserk. So, I couldn’t help but feel a bit impressed with Passerby A.
Of course, Xiao Er going berserk was a dangerous thing. Senior Brother Passerby A, it’s time for you to open the door and escape…
At this moment, Passerby A looked at Xiao Er in horror, pleading, “Mercy, Lady Warrior!”
Xiao Er stared at Passerby A’s face, smiling sinisterly like a thousand-year-old female ghost thirsting for blood. I shivered just listening to it.
Zhong Yuan pinched my hand and leaned closer to whisper in my ear, “Are all the people in your dormitory this fierce?”
-_-||||| Zhong Yuan, shut up!
At this moment, Xiao Er’s face approached Passerby A’s, and she stared at him intensely, her expression full of misery and resentment. “Misunderstanding? Can any misunderstanding compare to the pain of being killed at least once a day? It lasted for a whole month. Do you know what kind of days I’ve been through?”
Passerby A said with a bitter face, “Junior Sister…”
Xiao Er roared, “Don’t call me Junior Sister!”
Passerby A stammered, “L-Lady… Lady Warrior, I was wrong…”
Xiao Er shouted, “Damn it! Killing me once or twice would have been fine. Even if we had some deep grudge, is it worth chasing me and killing me for a month? And how the hell do you manage to find me wherever I hide?”
At a critical moment, Passerby B’s voice drifted over again: “He created a tracking device himself, tracking from afar, precise positioning, free trial, satisfaction guaranteed.”
Passerby B’s words were like adding fuel to the fire. Xiao Er was already on the verge of a breakdown. “Tell me, why did you relentlessly pursue me like this?”
Helplessly, Passerby A smiled bitterly, “I’m just used to killing…”
Onlookers: “…”
“You! Bastard! Pervert! Die!” Xiao Er sighed to the sky, “Heaven, what kind of sin have I committed? Ahhh…”
“It’s me who has committed the sin…”
“Shut up!” Xiao Er suddenly leaned closer again, their noses almost touching. Passerby A’s face turned red in fright.
Xiao Er said, “Die! Don’t move when we go back tonight. Let me ravage you a hundred times!”
Passerby A: “…”
Passerby B stood by, rubbing his chin and chuckling, with a cunning and sleazy expression. He seemed to revel in the misfortune of others. “A hundred times, huh? That phrase has such profound meaning.”
Onlookers: -_-
