Chapter 357: Chapter 267 Don’t Look for Trouble _2 Chapter 357: Chapter 267 Don’t Look for Trouble _2 Dan Xiao’s scrappy school uniform, in stark contrast to Qi Tianheng’s brand-laden attire, made him stick out like a sore thumb, rendering him akin to a beggar.
However, Dan Xiao felt no inferiority; what he desired, he would attain.
His gaze gently skimd over Qi Tianheng’s wrist, and he thought with a start,
“Switched watches, now it’s a Blancpain 6654.”
This watch was significantly more expensive than the previous one, soaring to the hundred-thousand-yuan level.
Dan Xiao couldn’t help but inhale sharply. For a high school student to own such a watch was exceptional, even if one were to consider the entire province.
Then, Dan Xiao shrugged helplessly. Wearing it would simply be a waste on him.
He had thought of stealing it before, but Qi Tianheng’s watch was never off his wrist, leaving no opportunity.
Unlike in elentary school, when a classmate bought a waterproof digital watch and showed it off by passing it around, and then it mysteriously disappeared while being passed along.
Where did the watch go?
Only Dan Xiao knew.
Qi Tianheng slowly approached Yang Sheng’s desk.
Yang Sheng, leaning against the desk behind her, was engrossed in a history extracurricular book.
Qi Tianheng stared at Yang Sheng. Today, she was still in sports clothes, but unlike before, she had her short hair tied into a low ponytail, giving her face an added touch of understated elegance.
Coming from a very wealthy family, Qi Tianheng had never co across a girl like Yang Sheng before.
He initiated a conversation, “What are you up to?”
Yang Sheng looked up, glanced at him, and said, “Breathing.”
Qi Tianheng gave an awkward chuckle:
“Ha ha, I’m also breathing.”
“Oh.” Yang Sheng continued flipping through her book, showing no interest in engaging with him.
Qi Tianheng stood in place, feeling awkward. After discussing with his classmate and good friend Li Shi, he was full of determination to nd relations with Yang Sheng, only to end up in this embarrassing situation again.
He wanted to give Yang Sheng a gift directly, but Li Shi advised him not to give gifts to a girl he didn’t know well, as she surely wouldn’t accept it, unless she was the gold-digging type.
Qi Tianheng knew Yang Sheng wasn’t materialistic. Otherwise, when compensating for the bicycle, she would have asked for a lot more.
He had tried to make ands by buying her breakfast, but they all ended up eaten by Zhang Chi.
Thinking of this made Qi Tianheng’s blood boil.
Instinctively, he blad Zhang Chi for his failed plan.
Qi Tianheng took a stool and sat down, neither too close nor too far from Yang Sheng.
“We might have had so misunderstanding before,” he began, hoping to have an open conversation with Yang Sheng.
Yang Sheng: “There’s no misunderstanding.”
His words stuck in his throat, and after a few seconds he said,
“Yang Sheng, I’ve given it serious thought. It was wrong of to step on your bicycle. People make impulsive mistakes, and what I did last ti was unintentional.”
Following basic etiquette, Yang Sheng replied, “Oh.”
She continued reading her book, having no interest in interacting with soone like Qi Tianheng.
Qi Tianheng persisted, “How about this then, let’s start as friends, and over ti, you’ll get to know .”
Qi Tianheng believed in his social skills, as even girls like Li Shi thought he wasn’t too bad at making friends.
Yang Sheng said, “I think it’s better if we don’t beco friends.”
…
Qi Tianheng left, feeling foolish.
On his way out, Zhang Chi and Yan Tianpeng were in the corridor, deep in conversation about the tricks of the trade.
Phrases like “Set a small goal first, then a bigger one,” and “Earn a freaking five or six hundred!” could be heard.
Qi Tianheng, already frustrated from his encounter with Yang Sheng, couldn’t bear to see his adversaries acting so arrogantly.
His expression imdiately darkened.
His sidekick Zhao Xiaofeng, who was adept at reading the room, also glared at Zhang Chi.
It wasn’t until they descended the stairs and reached an open area that Zhao Xiaofeng said,
“Brother Tian, everything is arranged, just say the word and we’ll deal with Zhang Chi.”
Qi Tianheng had noticed Zhang Chi getting close with Yan Tianpeng and had held back, waiting for the right opportunity.
But people aren’t machines; how could they always follow the perfect plan?
Having faced setbacks, Qi Tianheng decided not to wait anymore. He would take action today and release so pent-up anger!
“After school this afternoon, you get everything ready. Watch Zhang Chi’s movents; we only get one chance a week, make it count,” he instructed.
It was Friday, and school would be out in the afternoon. It was the perfect opportunity to catch Zhang Chi off guard on his way out of school and far from its grounds.
Zhao Xiaofeng assured him, “Brother Tian, you can trust to handle this.”
…
Before afternoon classes.
Guo Kunnan sat silently at his desk.
His friends looked at him and sighed.
Wang Longlong said, “Brother Nan hasn’t spoken for a long ti.”
Dan Kaiquan replied, “He hasn’t spoken since last night when he returned, and he isn’t eating.”
Hu Jun warned, “Brother Nan, this isn’t good, you need to eat, otherwise your sister will be worried about you.”
But Guo Kunnan still remained silent.
His body was alive, but his heart had died.
He was now not a person but a walking corpse.
All things in the world seed aningless to him.
The Dao Heart he pursued now seed like a joke.
A faint, bitter smile appeared on Guo Kunnan’s face.
He was just like the water dispenser placed at the front of the classroom, immobile.
But, the water dispenser was at least in pairs, while he was all alone.
‘I’m just a superfluous existence.’
Guo Kunnan began to question his life.
Wang Longlong asked Ma Shicheng quietly while others weren’t paying attention:
“Brother Ma, will Kun Nan be okay?”
Ma Shicheng said, “No big deal, he just needs to sleep it off.”
Wang Longlong nodded, “I think so too, it’s just being tricked by a man.”
“One must be strong to live!”
As Ma Shicheng played his ga, he overheard Lu Qiqi and others at the table in front discussing the issue with the Wi-Fi.
The Wi-Fi incident of class eight had already spread, and many students knew about it.
After all, there were so many students connecting to Wi-Fi every day, and there were inevitably a few who bragged about it to others.
So classes had already started buying routers to emulate.
It was only a matter of ti before this blows up, and if a teacher confiscates them, it would surely cause big trouble, not to ntion the person who placed the router might even be identified.
Ma Shicheng didn’t dare to gamble on the solidarity of his classmates, and after so contemplation, he decided to stop.
He exchanged a few words with Wang Longlong and then took out his phone, logged into the admin center, and disabled the Wi-Fi connection.
Soon, Lu Qiqi at the table in front discovered that Wi-Fi was no longer working.
Following that, a student stood up and shouted to the back of the room:
“Wang Longlong, why isn’t the Wi-Fi working?”
Faced with the students’ inquiries, Wang Longlong replied:
“The Wi-Fi is down for too; I’ll check it out.”
With that, he quickly ran to the lectern and bent over to investigate.
Wang Longlong pulled out the router with an unhappy expression and announced:
“Classmates, I’m sorry to say, the router has gone on strike.”
“I’ll take it back this afternoon for repairs, and we’ll continue to make it available to everyone once it’s fixed.”
Although the classmates were uncomfortable without Wi-Fi, they couldn’t bla Wang Longlong; it was him who shared it with everyone after all.
Even Jiang Yanan said, “No worries, you just bring it in for repair.”
After all, the holiday was starting in the afternoon, and by Sunday when school resud, it might be fixed and wouldn’t cause any disruption.
Most of the students hoped Wang Longlong would be able to fix the router so that everyone could continue to connect to Wi-Fi.
Only Zhang Chi, sitting at the back in an off-center position, watched the scene, hoping the router would definitely not get fixed.
That way, once he bought a new router, he could put it in place and offer it to everyone for a ‘fee.’
And so, Wang Longlong left with the router in tow.
Ma Shicheng nodded, if there was no risk involved, he’d be happy to let the classmates use a router, but now too many knew about it; it was no longer feasible.
…
In the afternoon, it was Gao Heshuai’s class, and he was all smiles, in an unusually good mood, and his lecture was not as stern as before.
Hu Jun, watching Gao Heshuai, didn’t understand why Mr. Gao had decided to settle permanently in class eight.
If he didn’t leave, how would the original female math teacher co back?
Hu Jun could hardly rember what the math teacher looked like.
“Longlong, do you know why Gao Heshuai is so happy?” Hu Jun passed a note to Wang Longlong.
Wang Longlong furrowed his brow, pretending to listen attentively to the lecture, and wrote on the paper:
“Gao Heshuai just bought a new car; soone from Fourth Middle School posted it on the forum.”
Hu Jun replied, “Damn, he bought a car? His salary is that high?”
Wang Longlong wrote back, “He’s a specially appointed teacher at Fourth Middle School with a very high salary. Haven’t you noticed his high-level teaching skills?”
Hu Jun comnted, “I haven’t noticed. Maybe I’ll ask Brother Ma if he can tell Fatty Gao’s teaching level?”
When it cos to issues, consulting Brother Ma is very reliable.
Wang Longlong concluded, “Don’t go looking for trouble when there’s none.”
