Chapter 83 — The Newcomer Among the Four Young Devils
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Is that not a good thing?" Wei Zhao said. "Nothing happened today, then?"
"Nothing. Just yesterday's business. The school put out a brief notice saying some people from outside had come onto campus to make trouble and the police had already detained them." Kang Xiaobo said, "Shit, it is only because Zhong Yongliang's family has connections that the school covers for him. Everyone knows those people were brought in by Zhong Yongliang."
"Heh--" Wei Zhao had already heard about it today from Uncle Qing. Since Zhong Yongliang's uncle was a director of the Gu Group, he was naturally one of the school's shareholders as well, and it was only normal for the school to protect Zhong Yongliang.
"Oh right, boss, guess how everyone is describing you now?" Kang Xiaobo lowered his voice, excited.
"Describing me? Describing me how?" Wei Zhao was a little baffled.
"Boss, you are one of the school's Four Young Devils now. You have replaced Zhong Yongliang and smoothly become the new number three of the Four Young Devils." Kang Xiaobo said it as though he were recounting something to boast about.
"The Four Young Devils?" Wei Zhao felt a chill of revulsion. Since when had he become one of the Four Young Devils? He had always held to the principle of lying low, lower still; he had not even dared perform normally on exams. And this was how he became famous?
And from the look of Kang Xiaobo, becoming one of the Four Young Devils seemed to be a great honor. Wei Zhao was left speechless.
"That is right, boss. If you take down number two as well, then you will be the number two of the Four Young Devils," Kang Xiaobo added.
"Number two?" The black lines on Wei Zhao's face multiplied. The "number two" of the Four Young Devils... that was worse than number three.
But there was nothing Wei Zhao could do about it. After all, the fight with the outsiders yesterday had really happened. Black Panther might have been the one who came to the school to make trouble, but other people would certainly not see it that way; they would surely assume he was the sort of student who loved to brawl. He had taken care of all of Zhong Yongliang's men, so he could well live up to a place among the school's Four Young Devils.
The bell rang for the end of class, cutting off Wei Zhao's talk with Kang Xiaobo. The title of one of the Four Young Devils did not sit well with Wei Zhao, but mouths belonged to other people, and he could not control what they said.
Still, thinking it over, Wei Zhao figured that since his image was what it was, it would go more smoothly when he acted as Gu Mengyao's shield in the future. He would just stand there, and one look would tell anyone, "Who dares cross me," "I am one tough tyrant."
The last period on Friday was the physical activity class. A physical activity class, so called, was a free period: you could go out and move around, or stay in the classroom and study. It was the only relaxing class the senior three students got each week.
Even those classmates who studied themselves to the bone would generally choose to relax in this period, wandering about the school or strolling past the record shop, the snack street, the trinket shops at the school gate.
Gu Mengyao left the classroom together with Shen Yushu. Zhong Yongliang called his two hangers-on and ran out as well. Though he had called a truce with Wei Zhao for the time being, his pursuit of Gu Mengyao had not stopped. He followed them out hoping for a chance to curry favor with her.
