?Chapter 172: Chapter 172 This Thing is Very Familiar Chapter 172: Chapter 172 This Thing is Very Familiar The wind was somewhat strong today, blowing through the ventilation windows in the hallway and pushing the door open a bit.

Zheng Tan thought for a moment, then walked in to see whether the guy in the sunglasses and Ermao would end up fighting. For Zheng Tan, watching the excitement was a great pleasure when bored, a way to pass the time.

Inside, Qin Tao exchanged a few sharp words with Ermao, but afterward, the atmosphere actually eased a bit. However, from their conversation, Zheng Tan could tell that the two were quite familiar with each other and didn’t seem to regard each other as enemies.

Just as Zheng Tan had guessed, Qin Tao, Ermao, and Wang Bin had all grown up together, even being classmates from elementary school through high school. The nickname “Beast” originated from Qin Tao himself during elementary school, when he was punished to write his name but omitted the three dots from the character “Tao” in every “Qin Shou” he wrote, and not realizing his mistake, he had it passed around the class. Since then, the nickname “Beast” had stuck with Qin Tao but only those close to him or of similar status dared call him that; otherwise, he would have punched someone long ago.

Compared to Wang Bin, Qin Tao and Ermao, in fact, shared a more brotherly bond, having frequently occupied the last two ranks in their class during middle school. It wasn’t that they were hopelessly bad at studies, but due to their backgrounds, they were always placed in classes with stronger students and teachers, while Wang Bin was always among the top ten. Therefore, in terms of common topics and shared glorious misdeeds from those days, Ermao and Qin Tao definitely had more to talk about, which was also one of the reasons Wang Bin had asked Qin Tao to come here.

“Speaking of which, why did you come to Chuhua City? Weren’t you supposed to be enjoying your time in Mingzhu City?” Ermao tossed an unopened bottle of mineral water to Qin Tao.

“Ran into some trouble, got dumped here to learn from my uncle, which is really just a nominal position; others handle everything, and I don’t need to lift a finger. I’m bored to death,” Qin Tao said, twisting open the bottle and taking several big gulps. When he turned his head, he caught sight of the black cat peeking at them from the doorway.

“Pff—” Qin Tao, startled, spat out the water in his mouth, his face turning red as he choked. He was reminded of the time he got hit by bird poop.

After recovering, Qin Tao pointed to Zheng Tan standing at the doorway: “Do you know this cat?”

Though it was a question, his tone was certain.

Seeing Zheng Tan, Ermao was somewhat surprised, but remembering that they indeed forgot to close the door earlier, he let it go. The area’s security was good, housing mostly teachers and retired professors with high integrity, so there wasn’t much need for excessive precautions.

“What, did it give you a hard time?” Ermao asked.

Qin Tao recounted the incident where he got splattered with bird poop.
