Chapter 6: King of Bootlickers, Old A

Chapter 6: Chapter 6: King of Bootlickers, Old A

There are four people in the family, plus a dog, and somehow they’re all against him. It’s undeniable, he’s really disappointed in this family.

This family... might as well not come back.

That’s right, Su Qing ran away, and he did it by car. Not only did I drive your car, but I also didn’t refuel. Just playing around.

Leisurely cruising in Lao Su’s beloved little car, there’s no way he’ll make it for dinner, but fortunately, he has a backup plan.

Looking at the message on his phone, Su Qing’s lips curled up slightly, then he lightly pressed the accelerator.

An hour and a half later, he arrived at the gate of a Science and Technology University in the East City Suburb, which was also his former university.

Indeed, from childhood to adulthood, he has always lived in Jiangcheng City, from elementary school to university, and even now hasn’t thought about going far. Fortunately, Jiangcheng City is quite developed.

Parking the car, he skillfully went to a sidewalk food stall at the back gate of the university.

Found an empty spot, sat down, ordered something casually, and then took out his phone to call Lao A.

Beep beep...

"Hey Lao A, where are you? I’m here already, at the usual spot." Su Qing said.

He had already messaged Lao A when he left home. This place is very close to Lao A’s residence, just over ten minutes on foot, and yet somehow, he still arrived first. Ridiculous.

"On the way," came Lao A’s voice from the phone.

"Where on the way?"

"Oh, I’m almost there."

Upon hearing this, Su Qing couldn’t help but roll his eyes and pushed further, "I’m asking where exactly are you now?"

This time, after a short silence on the other end of the line, "Triangle Grass" came the reply.

"Where is Triangle Grass? Never heard of it?"

"Triangle Grass at the Lower Road"

Su Qing: ...

"Damn it, you @##￥%..."

He knew this guy was unreliable, so he notified him an hour and a half in advance, but he still underestimated him.

"I’m giving you ten minutes. If I don’t see you in ten minutes, believe me, I’ll make sure you remain at Triangle Grass forever." After saying this, Su Qing hung up.

This is a serious case of procrastination; without a bit of pressure, he will never make progress.

Sure enough, less than ten minutes after he hung up, a tall, burly man in a white T-shirt, loose shorts, and slippers came running over, panting heavily.

"I’m... I’m here."

It was his high school buddy who used to sleep on the upper bunk, Lao A.

Lao A’s real name is Wang Xing. In middle school, he copied an A-class wanted criminal’s ID number from a utility pole to go to a black internet cafe, and was ’arrested’ on the spot by police, earning the nickname Lao A.

To this day, he still remembers the scene in that black internet cafe. The police went from being thrilled to disappointed. In hindsight, they might have even planned how to celebrate, only to be shown this?

Ultimately, the underage kids were educated on the spot, the black internet cafe was penalized, and it ended hastily.

"Why, aren’t you celebrating the birthday of that inflatable girlfriend of yours?" Su Qing asked irritably.

Even thinking about it now, he still feels a surge of anger.

"Hey, we’re brothers. Why bring that up? Yesterday, I had to work overtime at the company, couldn’t leave. Qingzi, you know me, I’m the most loyal guy. By the way, your stomach..." Wang Xing changed the topic.

[When choosing between friends and the goddess, Wang Xing chose the latter. Friends can suffer from diarrhea, but the goddess must never go hungry. A king among simp dogs, unafraid of criticism.]

Su Qing: O__O "...

The deep, slow, and magnetic narration appeared once more. Although it was just a few brief remarks, it was a fair assessment.

Indeed, Wang Xing is a simp dog, but he himself doesn’t see it that way. Instead, he enjoys it.

They both attended the same university, with the same major. Wang Xing fell for a girl in his freshman year and pursued her all the way to senior year. She changed boyfriends multiple times, yet he never got his chance.

Unexpectedly, even after graduation, he’s still simping.

The most disgusting part is that the woman never refuses his red envelopes or gifts, yet never commits to a relationship with him. Anyone with half a brain could see what kind of person she is, except for him.

"Go on, keep spinning your tales. So, what happened? Did your goddess at least thank you for delivering food to her in that heavy rain? Did she call you a nice guy?" Su Qing remarked sarcastically.

At these words, Wang Xing’s eyes widened: "Oh damn, how did you know? Did you install a surveillance camera at my place?"

"I’m quite good at predicting simp behaviors. It was raining yesterday. If you had a valid excuse, you wouldn’t have hung up so quickly." Su Qing pretended to analyze post-event, sounding quite logical.

Regarding the narration issue, he wasn’t planning to tell others. Not to mention whether they’d believe it, they might even think he’s mentally ill.

At these words, Wang Xing scratched his head and chuckled foolishly: "It was raining yesterday, and I saw in Mengting’s social media circle she said she wanted to eat the spicy fish near my house. Wouldn’t that be my chance, hehehe."

Su Qing: ...

"Heck with you. I was almost dying yesterday, and you still had the mood to be a simp. And even if she likes something from around your area, can’t she just order takeout? It’s obviously intentional."

"Qingzi, Mengting is not that kind of person."

Su Qing: "I... Alright. I’m just curious, we’re both primates, both sent to earth as sudden little angels, why do you make a fool of yourself every step of the way?"

"Some might finish the game in three days, but how do you manage years and still can’t even get the quest?"

"Did zombies eat your brain?"

These words weren’t unwarranted. Any normal person, over four or five years, even if not successful, would at least have learned a lesson, but not Wang Xing. His simp skills have only become more refined, though his IQ hasn’t improved.

"What are you saying? I’m starting out as friends with her, then I’ll make my move. Look for yourself, not one of her boyfriends has lasted over half a year, but I’ve been here standing strong all this time." Wang Xing explained.

Su Qing: -_-|||

Treasure life, stay away from simp dogs.

"Enough, let’s change the subject. How’s work going recently?" Su Qing said. He was afraid if it continued this way, he’d feel full before eating.

"Just muddling through, get by but not starve," Wang Xing replied while eating.

Su Qing: "Do you have any future plans? I’m not suited for corporate life, so I’m planning to venture more into the short video industry."

To this, Wang Xing spread his hands, responded plainly: "No plan."

"Can’t excel at leisure, can’t win at fighting, can’t lie flat steadily, just confused."

"Didn’t you think about trying to strive a bit, then get a promotion and raise?" Su Qing continued, since he felt a bit unbalanced seeing his buddy so relaxed while he worked hard editing videos every day.

At this, Wang Xing just let out a sneer: "As long as I don’t work hard, the boss won’t be able to live the life he wants."

Su Qing: (￣口￣)!!

"Your boss must be so pitiful, encountering a stumbling block like you on his entrepreneurial journey."

Wang Xing responded with considerable pride: "That’s for sure, he should realize entrepreneurship isn’t a walk in the park. During the interview, it was agreed to help him conquer great things, yet nothing has materialized. We paint cake pictures for each other, and then we’re full."

At this, Su Qing no longer wanted to retort, turned away not wanting to see him, but in the next moment, a familiar silhouette suddenly flashed across the road.

"Oh damn, quick... block me" Suddenly, Su Qing shrank to Wang Xing’s side.

"What’s up, who is it you’re hiding from?" Wang Xing turned his head to ask, puzzled.

"My sister"

"Your sister? Never heard of it, don’t you have only one younger sister?"

"This one’s from my uncle’s family. This woman has been formidable from childhood till now, better to keep distance." Su Qing hushed as he shrank.

"Aren’t you quite the fighter? Can’t you handle her?" Seeing him so cowardly, Wang Xing asked, puzzled.

"She’s four years older than me. One kick can send me flying off the bed to the doorway. Now she’s a cop, you dare provoke? Quick, see if she’s gone."

In the next second, a cool, crisp voice came:

"Still here!"
