Chapter 129 — Kick You Away If You Block the Way - "Boss, You Are Saving the Nation by a Roundabout Route, Hehe, Looks Like Tang Yun's Mom Has a Pretty Good Impression of You!" Kang Xiaobo Looked at Wei Zhao Suggestively: "Hehe, By Improving the Recipe You Have Suddenly Closed the Distance Between You and Tang Yun's Mom!"

"I watch you eat barbecue all day and I don't find it all that tasty, so I changed the recipe a bit so I can enjoy it myself!" Wei Zhao rapped Kang Xiaobo on the head, "What are you thinking about?"

"Hehe, nothing, nothing." Kang Xiaobo shook his head, "Changing it just for yourself works too."

Wei Zhao smiled and shook his head and let it drop. In Kang Xiaobo's eyes, he must be chasing Tang Yun, right? But Wei Zhao offered no explanation. After the bold words he had already thrown out in front of Tang Yun today, any more explaining would only sound false.

At lunch break, the senior-year wing of the teaching building was quite quiet, without the noisy bustle of the freshman and sophomore wings.

Wei Zhao and Kang Xiaobo stood by the window at the end of the corridor. The March sunlight was bright but not scorching, spilling over them with a gentle warmth that did not burn.

The track of his own life had changed from the moment the old man handed him that baffling damned mission. The old self had belonged to a world of tension and danger, while this moment was calm and almost tender.

"Boss, it is Bu Ruoming, together with Zhong Yongliang." Kang Xiaobo pointed toward the playground, beneath one of the basketball hoops, as he spoke.

Wei Zhao looked over and sure enough saw Bu Ruoming and Zhong Yongliang talking about something. Both were turned sideways, so Wei Zhao could not read their lips. In truth, he had no telescopic or X-ray vision or any such gift, and at this distance he could not have made out their words even face to face.

"What does Bu Ruoming's family do?" Because of Tang Yun, Wei Zhao knew clashes with Bu Ruoming would be unavoidable from now on. What happened on Friday had only been the beginning.

"Bu Ruoming, his father is a property developer who started out as a labor contractor. They say he is black-hearted and always holds back the workers' wages." Kang Xiaobo said, "But Bu Ruoming's elder brother Bu Ruoguang is a thug boss in the North District. Whenever the workers make trouble, Bu Ruoguang brings his men over to beat them up. Once they are beaten into fear, those workers never dare come back..."

"Oh? You know quite a lot in detail?" Wei Zhao was a little surprised. Bu Ruoming was not even in their class, yet Kang Xiaobo knew all about him.

"Bu Ruoming is always bragging about these things. That is also why he gets away with everything at school." Kang Xiaobo explained, "Most people in school know his glorious history!"

"This guy is not afraid someone will go after his family." Wei Zhao twisted his mouth. Just a petty thug. Some other day he would have Yang Huaijun sort out his brother, and he would behave.

As they talked, they saw Bu Ruoming and Zhong Yongliang part ways. Bu Ruoming headed toward the outside of the school, while Zhong Yongliang walked back toward the teaching building.

In fact, Bu Ruoming had only sought out Zhong Yongliang to double-check Wei Zhao's background. He had taken a heavy loss on Friday, and Bu Ruoming could not just let it go. If he did not win back his face, he would have no standing left to hang around school.

He was going to find his elder brother Bu Ruoguang to talk it over and see how best to handle this matter.

When Wei Zhao and Kang Xiaobo got back to the classroom, Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu were watching cartoons as usual. Zhong Yongliang had dragged a chair over and sat in the aisle beside Gu Mengyao, grinning foolishly along with them, though no one knew whether his brains could even follow the cartoon plot on the PSP.

Seeing Wei Zhao come in, Shen Yushu discreetly pointed at Zhong Yongliang with her hand.

Wei Zhao found that he and Shen Yushu were growing more and more in sync. If she were not Gu Mengyao's best friend, Wei Zhao would not have minded getting a little flirtatious with her, just to make this trip worthwhile.

Shen Yushu simply found Zhong Yongliang too annoying, and no matter how she tried she could not drive him off. Just as Wei Zhao walked in, Shen Yushu naturally wanted to borrow his hand to chase Zhong Yongliang away.

Wei Zhao smiled faintly and nodded, striding quickly toward Zhong Yongliang. Zhong Yongliang seemed to sense that Wei Zhao came with ill intent, but sitting there, he could not think what excuse Wei Zhao could have to go after him. After all, he told himself he had not offended Wei Zhao again these past few days.

Why would Wei Zhao care what Zhong Yongliang thought? He walked over and kicked hard at the leg of the chair Zhong Yongliang was sitting on, toppling it straight over and sending Zhong Yongliang sprawling flat on his back.

"Don't sit here blocking the way!" Wei Zhao did not even glance at Zhong Yongliang as he stepped right over his body.

Silence!

A deathlike silence!

Although the classroom had already been quiet during lunch break, there had still been whispers here and there. But at this moment, everyone looked up, staring in astonishment at the scene unfolding before them!

Before Wei Zhao transferred in, Zhong Yongliang had been the bully of the class, but everything changed once Wei Zhao arrived. The scene during the school morning drill had already filled everyone with awe for Wei Zhao, and today's incident made them feel his wild arrogance all the more!

To kick Zhong Yongliang flat on his back for the non-reason of blocking the way! Tell me, who in the class... or even in the whole school, would have the guts to do that?

Even Bu Ruoming, himself one of the Four Bullies, would not dare be so brazen, would he?

"Wei Zhao..." A venomous glint flashed in Zhong Yongliang's eyes. He was unwilling to accept this. He wanted to leap up and fight Wei Zhao to the death! But he did not dare. Zhong Yongliang clenched his fists tight, his heart filled with humiliation and helplessness.

Wei Zhao, just you wait. Bu Ruoming will take care of you! Enjoy your arrogance for a few more days! Zhong Yongliang silently picked himself up off the floor, put his chair back at his own desk, and sat down again.

Gu Mengyao stared in amazement at Wei Zhao's retreating back. This guy really was a born maniac for violence. That kick was fierce, but it had style. A man like that did give a girl a sense of safety.

"Sister Yaoyao, have you noticed how really handsome Shield Brother is?" Shen Yushu raised her thumb, a little starry-eyed with admiration.

"Xiao Shu, are you smitten with him?" Gu Mengyao saw the lovesick look on Shen Yushu's face and felt a faint discomfort in her heart.

"Hehe, maybe a little, but don't worry, Sister Yaoyao, I won't fight you for him." Shen Yushu said with a giggle, "Your choice is my choice..." "You!" This time Gu Mengyao really did not know whether to laugh or cry, and rapped Shen Yushu on the head. She had no idea what Shen Yushu was thinking, or why she was still so hung up on the past. Was it because of Wei Zhao, or because of her?

Gu Mengyao could not explain it. The feeling was very strange.

"Was it you just now, giving Wei Zhao a signal to do that?" Gu Mengyao asked in a low voice.

"Ah? You saw that..." Shen Yushu froze for a moment, "I did it for your own good... Otherwise him giggling beside us is so annoying."

"You really beat me, but Xiao Shu, you have to watch the influence, all right... If Wei Zhao keeps on like this, he will be expelled in a few days. Do you think he has as powerful a background as the others?" Gu Mengyao smiled bitterly.

"Wasn't he brought here by Uncle Qing? That should count as a powerful background." Shen Yushu saw to the heart of it, "Besides, it was Uncle Chu who arranged it this way, so there should be no problem."
