Chapter 272: People who are not easy to bully
Lu Yuan has never been a bully.
When he was a child, Lu Yuan didn't want to be so enthusiastic and cheerful as he is now, and more than half of his cute side now is brought by basketball. In the days when there was no basketball, Lu Yuan's senses were very different.
Before coming to the United States, before leaving, Xu Qian said to her son, "If someone bullies you, don't be afraid, you have to return it." β
This is Xu Qian's teaching to Lu Yuan since she was a child, a child without a father is always tougher than others.
However, although Lu Yuan is tough, he will not scold, and his mother has not allowed him to use foul language since he was a child, so he would rather use his hands than use his mouth.
The few curses he learned, in addition to the national scolding three-character scripture, were the "Soft, try me" taught to him by Bai Ye. β
Before arriving in the United States, Lu Yuan asked Bai Ye if there was any daily slang that could be used, Bai Ye thought about it, and said, "If someone is not very friendly to you, you can say 'soft, try me', which means to make friends." β
Lu Yuan wrote it down, of course Lu Yuan was not stupid, he searched it with his mobile phone after he went back, and only then did he know the meaning of this sentence, and secretly scolded Bai Ye in his heart, and at the same time remembered this sentence.
Now, that's where it comes in.
The chestnut-haired man named Romero Morales was a Hispanic student who was a quarterback on the Wilson High School football team.
Rugby is the most popular sport at Wilson High School, so the players on the football team are also the most watched in the school, and they inevitably get together to swagger and occasionally play tricks on their classmates.
Quarterbacks have always been the soul of the football team, and senior Morales is no exception, as he is both captain and central player in the team.
Coupled with his handsome appearance, deep eyes and bronzed skin unique to Spaniards, as well as a well-proportioned and toned body, he is a proper Wilson high school star.
This afternoon, the rugby team will be training without classes, so everyone changed their clothes early and went to the cafeteria to prepare for training.
Morales has been on a stumbling past two days, having successfully applied for a scholarship to the college football team, no longer having to worry about going to college, and at the same time staying at a party as a football cheerleader at another high school in Los Angeles.
The complacent Morales was a little unpopular, and when he walked in the cafeteria, he saw Lu Yuan's face, and when he saw that he was yellow-skinned, he didn't think about it, so he made a move to pull the corners of his eyes when he went up, wanting to tease Lu Yuan, and even more to tease his teammates.
Wilson High School has many Asian-American students who study, and in Morales's view, these students are bored and unsmiling, especially not participating in sports.
In American high schools, physical activity is very important, everyone must choose a physical education class, sports stars in school are often popular, and those who are not good at sports are often ignored or even bullied.
Morales didn't expect this yellow-skinned kid to give him a middle finger!
This is completely unbearable, especially in front of teammates, if you don't react to being given the middle finger like this, you will definitely be laughed at in the future.
Morales got up from his chair and wanted to scare the other party with his height and physique, but he didn't know that the man was not stunned at all, he also stood up, and he was not short at all.
Morales was still thinking about how to respond, but the other party actually spoke first.
βSoftοΌtry meγ β
Now the entire canteen is about to explode, and Morales, who originally had a faint smile on his face, immediately turned ugly, this is a naked provocation, no matter where it is, this kind of provocation is unbearable.
The teammates behind him had already begun to heckle and scream, they didn't expect this Asian student to be so arrogant and say such provocative words.
Morales clenched his fists, thinking about punching this kid, but he was a little hesitant in his heart, because he had just passed the scholarship application for the university, and if there was a fight now, the matter would be big, and it would probably affect his graduation and further education, which would be more than worth the loss.
But if Morales swallowed it, he really couldn't do it, so Morales took the drink from the table and wanted to pour it directly on the man's head.
How could Lu Yuan let him succeed, he reached out and grabbed Morales's arm in the air, preventing him from moving. Morales wanted to press over and pour water on Lu Yuan, but Lu Yuan held his hand against it.
The two froze there, and then Lu Yuan's other hand suddenly slapped out, knocking out the drink glass in Morales's hand, the cup fell to the ground, and it shattered with a "pop", and the entire canteen instantly dropped a needle on the ground, which could be heard.
At this time, Lu Yuan let go of his hand, he walked to the trash can and took a broom and dustpan, swept the broken glass clean, and then went to the employee who was cooking and asked, "Ho much?"
The cafeteria uncle grinned and held out two fingers, five dollars for a cup.
Lu Yuan's heart was broken, ten dollars for a meal, five dollars for a cup, this really cost him his life.
"Let Jensen have a treat tonight, and can't eat by himself. Lu Yuan made up his mind to eat Zanson's at night, and took out five dollars and gave it to the canteen uncle.
Then, Lu Yuan returned to his seat and said to Rabo, "Let's go." African Rapo put down what he hadn't eaten and left with Lu Yuan. From beginning to end, Morales stood there not knowing what to do, neither came forward to trouble Lu Yuan, nor was he embarrassed to sit down, so he stood there dumbfounded.
Obviously he knew, this kid was not so easy to bully, and if this thing was poked up, a racist hat would be put on his head, and he would not be able to bear it.
Morales played quarterback, so his brain was not spinning, and thinking of this, he could only knock out his teeth and swallow blood, and he endured it.
After Lu Yuan and Rapo left the cafeteria, the originally stagnant atmosphere in the cafeteria suddenly relaxed again, and it was extremely relaxed, Morales only felt depressed, but his teammates laughed at him, making him feel even more faceless.
In short, Morales wrote down this account, thinking that one day he would have to settle accounts with this kid.

There is no lunch break in American high schools, and classes will start in the afternoon soon after lunch, so Lu Yuan and Rabo immediately returned to the classroom.
On the way, Rapo looked very excited, and asked with a dance, "Aren't you afraid, Lu, aren't you still afraid?"
Lu Yuan is not afraid I don't know, judging from Rabo's performance, he is quite scared, he didn't finish the lunch he ordered, so he ran out with Lu Yuan, Lu Yuan ate a fine meal.
Lu Yuan shook his head, sighed again, and said, "I'm not afraid, I'm just distressed, and I feel sorry for money." β
"Money?" Rapo looked surprised, "what's so distressed about money?"
This time it was Lu Yuan's turn to be surprised, he glanced at Rabo and said, "Money, it's very important." β
Rapo shook his head and said, "Money, it's not a big deal. β
Lu Yuan knew that he must have met a local tyrant, could it be that this Rabo is the son of an African chief?
At this time, the two arrived at the classroom and saw that Chu Yuanliang was still reading in his position, the Middle Eastern brothers did not appear, the Korean girl was putting on makeup, and the Chinese girl Gu Zimei was still playing with her mobile phone.
There is only one class in the afternoon, and after two o'clock, it is time for extracurricular activities, and the girls will participate in their own interest clubs, while the boys will participate in various sports clubs.
So everyone was a little absent-minded in the afternoon class, even Ms. Popper was very casual, and she was already very tired from the language class.
As soon as the bell rang for the end of class in the afternoon, the Korean girl with makeup left with her schoolbag, and the Middle Eastern brothers followed, Gu Zimei looked at Lu Yuan and asked, "Are you interested in coming to our club?"
Lu Yuan shook his head, and Gu Zimei left without looking back. And Chu Yuanliang packed his schoolbag, walked up to Lu Yuan, and said, "Do you want to play table tennis?"
This was the first time Chu Yuanliang talked to Lu Yuan, and Lu Yuan was very surprised, because he finally heard Chinese, but Lu Yuan didn't want to play table tennis, he replied: "No, I'm going to play basketball." β
Chu Yuanliang showed a strange look on his face, then snorted, and left the classroom with his schoolbag, looking like he was playing table tennis.
Rabo's chosen sports club is the track and field club, and if you don't like any sports in high school, then join the track and field club and go for a run.
Of course, Lu Yuan wanted to go to the basketball club, he said goodbye to Rapo and ran towards the basketball hall with his schoolbag on his back.
When leaving the classroom, Lu Yuan suddenly found a girl at the door looking around the classroom, she had black hair, and she was an Asian girl.
Lu Yuan saw her, she also saw Lu Yuan, Lu Yuan could see that this was a Chinese girl, so he asked in Chinese: "What's wrong?"
The girl looked a little unnatural, shook her head, and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing, you're a new Chinese student?"
Lu Yuan nodded, the girl took out her mobile phone, and said, "Leave a contact information, there are many Chinese students in Los Angeles." β
Lu Yuan refused, and said, "I still have urgent matters, let's talk about it when I have a chance." Saying that, Lu Yuan left with his bag on his back, he didn't come to the United States to study, he wanted to play.
The girl was surprised and wanted to say something, but found that Lu Yuan had already left. So, she went back to the language classroom, as if looking for something.
"Where the hell have you gone?"
