Supporting Role’s Aura

Arc 3.8 : True Colors

—

After getting into the car, Ye You leaned on Du Yao and said, “I really didn’t mean to blow up that small mecha, I didn’t know what was going on at the time, and suddenly I felt a sense of overexcitement. I didn’t expect that small mecha would not be able to dodge either, so I couldn’t control it for a while, and used too much force.”

Du Yao put his arms around Ye You and said with a smile: “You should feel happy, this just proves that you have a very high talent in operating mecha combat, and it is this kind of talent that gives you a great sense of excitement. When other people with low talent drive mechas, they will only have a sense of fear. Most people can’t even activated the mecha, let alone driving a mecha to fight. ”

“But… I destroyed the academy’s property, will it have any bad influence on you?” Ye You said worriedly.

“You don’t need to worry about this. Even if you blow up the school, I will pay for it, as long as you don’t kill anyone.” Du Yao lifted Ye You’s chin, kissed him on the lips, and said: “I’ll let people show the picture of you beating up a small mecha today, so that those people on the Star Online who suspect that I’m helping you cheating will shut up for a while.”

“I think it’s still very difficult for me to drive a real combat mecha, and the time that I can control it was very short, but driving a small mecha was very easy. It is great for transitioning and acclimation exercises. Can you get a small mecha for me to practice?” Ye You asked Du Yao expectantly.

Du Yao deliberately remained silent, and did not immediately answered Ye You.

“Is it okay or not?” Ye You was anxious, he looked like he would bite him if Du Yao dared to say ‘not okay’.

“Okay.” Du Yao said with a smile.

Ye You knew that he was deliberately teasing him, so even if he agreed, he was still so angry that he bit his chin hard.

Du Yao hugged Ye You tightly in his arms in the posture of holding a child and kissed him.

…………………………

A few days later, Ye You went to take a fighting class, which was one of the courses that must be learned when piloting a mecha.

Ye You’s progress in each course was very fast. In today’s fighting class, he also received praises from the teacher. Ye You’s talent that he immediately be able to do it after learning it once made all the teachers feel very surprised, so they knew that those on Star Online who suspected Du Yao helping Ye You cheat would be slapped in the face sooner or later.

After Ye You practiced for a while, standing aside to wipe his sweat and replenish the blue nutrient solution, he felt that Jin Lan was looking at him all the time, but every time he looked over, Jin Lan’s line of sight was not on him, his expression and eyes were also normal. But Ye You knew that his feelings could not be wrong, so it could only prove that Jin Lan was really good at covering up. If it were someone else, they would definitely think that they had an illusion.

In addition to Jin Lan who was secretly watching him, there was another person who glared at him openly and angrily. That person was Benny who had made a big scandal a few days ago and was frightened by Ye You until his whole body become weak.

Benny took the initiative to provoke Ye You, thinking that he could crush Ye You casually, but he was beaten up by Ye You, even the small mecha he was driving was destroyed, making him lose his face, and now he can’t wait to tear Ye You up with his own hands.

At the beginning of the next one-on-one fighting practice, Ye You thought that Benny would offer to fight him again, and then retaliate against him, unexpectedly, it was Jin Lan who proposed to practice fighting with him.

Then the teacher called Ye You over, explained the situation to him, and asked him if he was willing, Ye You agreed, and then the teacher asked them to put on various protective gear to prepare.

“Royal Brother, you must help me take a revenge and teach him a lesson!” Benny walked to Jin Lan, who was wearing protective gear, and said in a low voice.

“We’re practicing normally. There’s no need to teach a lesson, you don’t have to be too angry. You had lose before, then just keep working hard.” Jin Lan said and smiled at Benny, but he said it nicely yet he conveyed another meaning to Benny with his eyes.

Benny nodded understandingly.

After Ye You and Jin Lan stood on the fighting ring, all the other teachers and students stood below to watch. The teacher also opened a recorder, ready to record the whole process, and then used it as an example for students to learn.

“Please be merciful, Your Highness.” Ye You bowed slightly to Jin Lan.

“You don’t need to be too nervous, I won’t use all my strength, I’m just setting an example for the other students, so that everyone can make progress together.” Jin Lan thought to himself, later he must pretend to be too hard, teach him a lesson and let others see that even if Ye You wins against Benny, he was still far behind him, and by the way, he can also test his current fighting ability.

“Then ask your Highness for more advice.” Ye You also said with a smile, thinking that now he not only have to compare his strength with Jin Lan, but also his acting skills. The two of them don’t care whether the other knows their true colors or not, as long as other people believe it, it was enough. In the end, whoever the person they believes more depends on who of the two of them has better acting skills.

Under the teacher’s instruction, the two began to fight against each other. At the beginning, Jin Lan showed a very easy-going look to prove that he would not use all his strength to fight against Ye You.

Ye You, on the other hand, deliberately took a serious attitude. After Jin Lan punched him, instead of dodging, he took his fist. Jin Lan used a lot of strength, after being caught by Ye You, his arm immediately felt a numbness.

Ye You’s arm turned forward, Jin Lan almost cried out in pain, he immediately shook off Ye You’s hand, and then stared at Ye You, because he did not expect Ye You’s strength to be so strong. Obviously the person who didn’t looked using much strength, yet he almost broke his bones.

Ye You, on the other hand, deliberately looked at Jin Lan with a puzzled look.

Looking at Ye You’s face pretending to be innocent, Jin Lan became even more angry, and then used more strength to attack Ye You quickly and violently.

Ye You pretended his strength no match for him, unable to fight back, and could only catch and block Jin Lan’s attack.

In this scene, in the eyes of other onlookers, Jin Lan was beating Ye You unilaterally, but in fact, all of Jin Lan’s strength was blocked by Ye You, so Ye You didn’t feel much pain at all. On the contrary, the harder Jin Lan worked, the more painful it would be for him.

After a few moves, Jin Lan’s hands started to tremble from pain. He originally planned to stop, but when he met Ye You’s eyes and saw Ye You’s mocking eyes, he felt the anger accumulated in his heart against Ye You, immediately broke out uncontrollably.

The people below were all stunned for a moment, wondering what happened to Jin Lan all of a sudden. When he usually practiced against people of the same level, he could be graceful, but now, it was completely different from his usual gentle and good-tempered appearance. Everyone could see that he just wanted to beat Ye You fiercely, but Ye You kept dodging, looking very pitiful.

Ye You acted as if he had no choice but to fight back. After catching Jin Lan’s waving hand, he flipped over and easily pinned Jin Lan to the ground.

“Ah!” Jin Lan suddenly shouted and fell to the ground.

Ye You deliberately looked startled, immediately got up and took a step back, then looked at Jin Lan who fell to the ground with a stunned look. The others were also stunned, because Ye You obviously didn’t use much effort just now, why did Jin Lan fall to the ground and yelling?

“It hurts! My hand!” Jin Lan lay down and screamed loudly in pain. He had never been so gaffe before, but his hand was really hurting so much that he couldn’t even figure out why does his hand was making him felt a heart-wrenching pain.

“What did you do to my Royal brother?!” Seeing that Jin Lan not only failed to defeat Ye You, but was also injured by Ye You, Benny immediately ran up to the fighting ring in a rage and kicked Ye You hard.

Ye You stared at Benny who was rushing towards him with a stunned expression. When Benny kicked him, he made the appearance of being kicked and flew out. He lifted his feet and fell hard from the stage.

This time everyone was frightened, several teachers and Morley immediately ran over to surround Ye You.

The teacher squatted down and looked at Ye You, and asked worriedly, “Student Ye You, are you all right?”

“I…” Ye You covered the spot where Benny has kicked him, and with a pained expression, he whispered, “I’m fine.”

“My hand… Call the doctor, my hand is injured!” Jin Lan said loudly, and there was a very important assessment after that. His hand must not be seriously injured at this time.

“What do you care about him?! If he’s gonna die, just let him die!” Benny yelled angrily: “If my Royal brother’s hand is injured, don’t think about a good life for all of you! Still not hurry up and notify the school doctor to heal my brother!”

“…” The teacher looked up at Jin Lan, who was lying on the ground screaming in pain, immediately opened the crystal card on her wrist, and notified the school doctor to come over, then glanced at Benny again, only daring to be ‘angry but not dared to speak’ in her heart.

After the school doctor arrived at the fastest speed, he immediately checked Ye You and Jin Lan.

The injury on Ye You’s stomach was immediately detected. The doctor said that there was no injury to the bones and internal organs. The bruise and pain could be eliminated within a day with medicine. Then Iarin and Mitt carefully helped Ye You up and let him sit down to rest.

On Jin Lan’s side, the doctor checked him two or three times in a row, but he didn’t find any problems with his hands.

“Your Highness, the instrument shows that there is no damage to your hand, do you…do you really feel pain?” the school doctor asked with some doubts.

“Could I still lie to you?!” Jin Lan said angrily: “My hand… obviously… it was very painful just now.”

Before the school doctor rushed over, Jin Lan didn’t dare to moved at all, but now he moved a little, yet he no longer felt the pain, which made him felt very strange, because he clearly felt the feeling of broken bones just now.

When Jin Lan turned his head and saw Ye You’s innocent face, he felt very angry, he stood up, glared at Ye You and said loudly, “It’s you who did it, right?! What did you do to me just now?!”

“I… I didn’t, didn’t do anything.” Ye You stood up and took a step back, looked at Jin Lan with fearful eyes and said, “I’m so, sorry, Your Highness, I’m really sorry, I, I really didn’t do anything to you.”

“Don’t act anymore! Your innocent face makes me feel disgusted!” Jin Lan shouted loudly.

The others were all stunned, and looked at Jin Lan with disbelief, because Jin Lan was usually known for his gentle personality, easy to get along with, and no arrogant attitude of the royal family. His appearance now, was like a different person, it even makes people feel that the him now, was the most real appearance of him.

Dun dun dun dun! 

What are you gonna do, JL?! Will people believed in him after this?
