Experts Always Have a Bad Temper (1)
Chapter Courtesy: Wang Mei
After the last morning class ended, Shen Wanying packed up her things and went to Huo Cheng’s seat with a meal card.
She had already made an appointment with the Archery Club President. First, she would take Huo Cheng to meet him in the club activity room before they went to the canteen for lunch.
Huo Cheng followed her out of the classroom, watching her walking in front of him.
The uniform of the first private school in City A wasn’t like the public school’s sportswear. It was a British-style uniform, in which the boys wore blazers and trousers, while the girls’ blazers and skirts. The school had also made serious consideration to the style. So, the girl’s skirt wasn’t a short skirt, rather a pleated long skirt over the knee. On the contrary, this kind of skirt was really suitable for Shen Wanying’s temperament, as it emphasized her excellent student aura at a glance.
The color of the school uniform was also very eye-catching. It was the noble red wine that Shen Wanying liked. The description “noble red-wine” was given by the Lady herself when she went shopping with Huo Cheng once.
She was very fond of the color red. Apart from the standard red, wine red was also one of her favorites.
Huo Cheng was thinking of this when Shen Wanying suddenly stopped and looked back at him. “Huo Cheng, what’s wrong with you?”
“Nothing.” He stepped up a little and walked out of the teaching building side by side with her.
The entire way, they attracted the attention of the students. Their expressions were hard to conceal as they whispered excitedly. Huo Cheng listened to the commotion around him and said to Shen Wanying, “You seem to be very popular.”
Shen Wanying smiled sheepishly. “Haha, don’t exaggerate. They are mainly looking at you.”
Huo Cheng: “What’s so good about me?”
“——”
You look extremely good. “Further ahead is our club activity room.” Shen Wanying changed the subject and led Huo Cheng to the club room.
It was time for lunch, so there was no one else in the activity room except the president. Shen Wanying walked in with Huo Cheng and introduced him, “This is the president of our archery club, Tian Yu. He has been practicing archery since he was a child. He’s won several awards on behalf of our school.”
While she spoke, Tian Yu kept looking at Huo Cheng. After listening to Shen Wanying’s introduction, Huo Cheng didn’t respond but gave a small nod.
Tian Yu smiled at him and quietly asked Shen Wanying, “Miss, please tell me honestly. Is this handsome boy your boyfriend?”
The smile on Shen Wanying’s face turned stiff for a moment. “You’re wrong. Huo Cheng is the new transfer student in our class. We became acquainted only this morning.”
“That’s not good.” Tian Yu glanced at Huo Cheng again and spoke to Shen Wanying in a low voice, “If he isn’t your boyfriend, he isn’t beneficial for the archery club, you know?”
Shen Wanying: “——”
She didn’t know!
Huo Cheng had been watching Tian Yu whispering to Shen Wanying. His face showed no expression, but strangely the president felt the air around him getting colder and colder. Eventually, he extended his hand to the other and formally introduced himself, “Hello, I’m Tian Yu, the president of this archery club, the same grade as you.”
“Hello.”
Tian Yu looked at his own hand hanging there and slowly retracted it. He always thought the handshake was perfunctory. Then, he opened his mouth and asked with a smile, “I heard that you want to join the archery club? Do you know anything about archery?”
Huo Cheng considered for a moment and said, “I know everything you know.”
Tian Yu: “——”
T-this, he understands human language, right? Really, a handsome guy like this is so hateful!
“So, you’ve learned archery before?” Tian Yu took the traditional bow and arrow and gave it to Huo Cheng. “Let’s not talk nonsense. You can prove it to me now.”
Huo Cheng looked at the bow and arrow in Tian Yu’s hand and took it.
Tian Yu stepped back. He touched his chin and spoke to Shen Wanying, “Looking at his bow-drawing posture, he must have practiced it once or twice.”
Shen Wanying didn’t speak but looked at Huo Cheng, who was focused on the target. He took off his blazer because it was in his way and was wearing only his uniform shirt.
NO NOT A CLIFF NOOO IT’S GETTING GOOD 😭😭😭
IT’S NOT JUST YOU THE BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN ZYM AND FYC IS LIKE A CHEMICAL REACTION
ay? wait? i got something?
HE NICKNAMED HER AH WAN AAAAA
Alright I’m somehow more convinced that he believed himself to be the “killer” because he blamed himself for Fang Ke’s death without being actually the cause of it? What if it’s like a suicidal pact situation? where fang ke is the one who’s a bit loco in the head and initiated the accident, planning to die with both the guy and he just has a survivor’s guilt after?
THE WAY YOU DESCRIBED HIS SECOND LIFE AS NG+ PLUS I’M CRYINGG
ughh now i feel like it’s really a huge red herring instead. It’s too clear and obvious
made an account for commenting here, but my current leading theory, considering the premise of the painted veil that was hinted before, his mom had cheated, his dad knew about and gave her a choice. Something to do with her disease and forced her to live in the mountain villa or to divorce, and for the sake of Huo Cheng she just rather go to the villa. They fixed their relationship and either his mom ended up cheating again or her lover is a yandere.
Also another thought is that daisies represent “innocence” which may suggest that his mom is innocent and she was wrongly blamed, either for the cheating or for something else that we don’t have enough information on. Or if still in line with the ‘cheating’ and the painted veil plot, it may suggest that His mom is someone who’s shallow/gullible like the main character of that novel is.
Watch as I’m embarrassingly wrong/this is a red herring thrown in by the author to kick us off guard. This is honestly such an interesting subplot to the fluffy and light-hearted high school romance

I love your translations! They’re very smooth and comfortable to read even if you don’t read many Chinese novels.
Would this advance release you mentioned be more premium chapters that we’d have to pay for or would it be an early release on Novel Updates?
Most obvious thing is that his mother had an affair, and he ended up dead from something related to it.
Hello, I am new reader. I am loving the novel. Thank you so much for your hard work! And thanks for the new chapter.
About your note, since this novel is short and as far as I can see, is more on the fluffy than anything else, I don’t think the Huo family has anything to do with the ML mother’s death. Maybe one of then did something that stimulated her and thus lead to the cause of her death? But I think must of the reason is because she probably really betrayed ML father… The flowers ML saw are probably from the other man, and maybe he also did something that end up causing the ML mother’s death? Everything about that is very strange. Let’s observe more…
Not related but I just want to say: I really don’t believe the FL was the one who killed Huo Cheng. There must be something fish about his death as well. I trust FL.
Sorry my bad english.
