This was the first ti in her life she had felt this way, making her extrely anxious. She stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do, just staring blankly as Hao Jian sprinted out of the school. It was only after Hao Jian’s figure disappeared from view that she snapped back to reality.
Touching her face, she found it still burning, and she felt her heartbeat by placing her hand on her chest. It was still racing and seed to be accelerating even more. She was a little scared, feeling that this situation was a bit sudden, but she vaguely knew what the reason was.
Soon after, she turned around and left. She had to return to the classroom. Standing here would only make the situation worse. As the class monitor, since sothing had happened in the class, things were probably chaotic, and since Li Weiwei had gone outside the school, it was up to her to manage the discipline. Besides, she couldn’t calm her mind right now. Usually, when sothing bothered her, she would do so exercises to regain composure, so now she planned to return to the classroom to do so exercises, to shift her thoughts, and to stop feeling so restless.
With this in mind, she headed towards the teaching building.
......
After Hao Jian ran out of the school gate, it was clear that his thoughts were spot on. At this mont, Li Weiwei had already arrived at the scene. Upon arrival, she imdiately saw the students from her class.
Although Hao Jian generally didn’t interact much with his classmates, he had been with them long enough to recognize them. Right now, he could see a few boys from his class there, along with a few girls, though these girls weren’t from his class.
At this mont, Li Weiwei had already walked over. The boy from the class was nad Zheng Jun, normally a simple and honest person, with decent relationships with Fatty and Hu Lai. They would chat together after class, and the other two or three people were from the class as well, closer to Zheng Jun, forming a decent group of friends.
As for those girls, Hao Jian didn’t recognize them, but it was evident they were students from Yawen’s class.
At this mont, footprints and shoe marks covered the boys, clearly showing signs of injury, and Zheng Jun was the most battered one. His face looked like it had been slapped, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. He was holding it with his hand, appearing to be in great pain.
Further, his body was severely injured, with his clothes torn, and multiple scratches on his body, deep enough to bleed, which, if not treated with so dicine soon, could beco infected and worsen.
Without a doubt, Zheng Jun was the most seriously injured among the boys, now looking very pained, while the other boys appeared deeply aggrieved. The few girls standing beside them looked terrified and were clinging close to them.
It seed Hao Jian roughly understood what had happened.
In front of them stood a group of gangster-like thugs, each looking fierce and malevolent, chewing toothpicks, shaking their legs, wearing vests, with earrings in their ears, dyed red and green hair, spouting expletive-laden sentences.
Needless to say, He Qiqi ntioned that so boys in the class had a conflict with outsiders, indicating these people were responsible. With an air of arrogance about them, it felt like they thought no one dared to provoke them.
Hao Jian arrived but didn’t want to intervene without understanding the situation, preferring to watch from the side to see what had happened before taking action. Otherwise, if he stepped in blindly, Li Weiwei might criticize him. He certainly didn’t want to receive Li Weiwei’s disdainful looks.
Li Weiwei stood protectively in front of the students, looking worriedly at Zheng Jun’s injuries. As a student under her charge, she naturally cared for his well-being.
She looked at Zheng Jun and asked concernedly, "Zheng Jun, are you alright? Do you need to go to the infirmary to treat your wounds?"
Zheng Jun clearly didn’t expect Li Weiwei to arrive so quickly. He hadn’t even inford her, yet she knew about the situation and rushed over, standing before them to prevent further harm from these gangsters. Instantly, his respect for Li Weiwei, his horoom teacher, grew. Teachers like this were rare nowadays.
He covered his mouth wound and said, "Don’t worry, teacher, I’m fine. These are just minor injuries, but these ruffians must be taught a lesson today. We definitely cannot let them get away with it."
While saying this, Zheng Jun glanced at the girls standing beside him. Obviously, these girls were the victims.
Li Weiwei, observing without speaking, had seen these gangsters beating up her students when she arrived. Though she didn’t know the exact cause, it was wrong to hit her students, so she promptly ran over and forced the attacking gangsters to retreat.
Now, looking at these gangsters and asking them a few questions, she roughly understood the whole story. It was like this: Zheng Jun and a few students were asked by a teacher to run an errand during self-study ti, requiring them to go outside the school to buy sothing.
On their way back, they saw these gangsters harassing so girls. Upon seeing that the girls were wearing their school uniforms, they stepped in to stop it, shielding the girls.
The gangsters were clearly trying to take advantage of the girls, and unexpectedly, when they were about to succeed, Zheng Jun and his group intervened. Naturally unhappy, the gangsters grabbed Zheng Jun’s group and started beating them up, with Zheng Jun being beaten the worst for stepping in first and shielding the girls.
Then, one boy quickly sensed the danger and ran back to the classroom to get Li Weiwei, although she wasn’t there, leading to He Qiqi looking for Li Weiwei.
Now, with Li Weiwei here, she was protecting Zheng Jun and others behind her. She would never allow anyone to harm her students.
At this mont, hearing what Zheng Jun just said, the gangsters burst into laughter, arrogantly looking at Zheng Jun, then fixing their gaze on Li Weiwei, and arrogantly asking, "Who the hell are you? Get lost quickly, or don’t bla for hitting you as well. I never had a rule about not hitting girls."
Hearing this, Li Weiwei replied, "I’m their horoom teacher. You’ve beaten my students, assaulted students; you must give an explanation!"
Li Weiwei’s tone was extrely assertive, fully standing in defense of Zheng Jun and others’ interests. Generally, when faced with such situations, most horoom teachers preferred to avoid trouble unless necessary, resolving it as simply as possible. In typical situations, they would just take Zheng Jun and others away, ensuring no further issues — problem solved, no more disputes to worry about, not caring about anything else, so long as things didn’t escalate.
But Li Weiwei was different. She wasn’t there to take Zheng Jun and others away but to seek justice for them. They couldn’t just be beaten up like that. If beaten, then there must be consequences, especially since these people even tried to assault several female students, thus, not letting them off easily.
Hearing Li Weiwei’s words, the gangsters burst into loud laughter. Having taken the path of being gangsters, they were mostly people who hadn’t graduated from junior or senior high school and had no aspirations, drifting through life aimlessly, just getting by.
Being fearless of teachers or horoom teachers was a given, so when they heard a female teacher saying such things, they all burst into laughter.
"Teacher, did you say sothing wrong? Must give you an explanation? Haha... I’m so scared! You really think I’m a three-year-old who fears teachers? What a colossal joke!" A gangster arrogantly said to Li Weiwei. His words incited laughter from the whole group.
Facing the ridicule, Li Weiwei remained unfazed, maintaining a stern expression as she looked at the gangsters, determined to ensure justice was served.
During her school days, she had faced similar situations, where teachers’ inaction had frustrated her, but as an ordinary student, there was nothing she could do. So today, encountering this situation and being a teacher and horoom teacher herself, she must properly handle this, ensuring these gangsters understand the consequences of wrongdoing.
Instantly, she said, "Don’t think that just running your mouth makes you powerful. If you don’t provide an explanation for this, then prepare to visit the Police Station."
Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, the gangsters burst into loud laughter once more.
Being gangsters, with no proper occupations, idling around, visiting the Police Station and detention centers was common for them. ntioning the Police Station, they even felt it was quite cozy there, as they’d made many like-minded friends there.
