Chapter 11: Hitting a Brick Wall!?

 

Fang Yu frowned, carefully observing Tang Xiaorou’s expression, and did not find any signs of her lying.

However, given Tang Xiaorou’s background, how could the head of the teaching department possibly refuse her request?

Clearly, someone was causing trouble.

But these matters were not what Fang Yu needed to consider.

“I’ll say this: your grandfather needs acupuncture once a week. If you don’t fulfill your promise, I can stop anytime,” Fang Yu said.

“I know! I will find a way to get transferred as soon as possible!” Tang Xiaorou’s face flushed with anger.

After saying that, she muttered softly, “As if anyone wants to sit with you!”

During the break, Fang Yu wanted to go to the restroom, so he walked out through the back door of the classroom.

Just as he stepped outside, a tall, handsome boy blocked his way.

“Classmate, I’m looking for Tang Xiaorou. Can you help me call her out?”

Fang Yu glanced at the boy and found it a bit strange.

Several people had walked out before him, yet this boy didn’t ask them for help, but as soon as Fang Yu stepped out, he was stopped.

It seemed this boy was specifically looking for him.

“My name is Yang Xu, a student from the next class, and I’m an old classmate of Tang Xiaorou,” the boy said with a sunny smile.

Under this handsome and sunny smile, most people would surely think that Yang Xu was a very friendly and gentle guy.

Unfortunately, standing in front of Yang Xu was Fang Yu, who had lived for nearly five thousand years.

Though well-hidden, Fang Yu still saw the malice and disgust in Yang Xu’s eyes.

Fang Yu remained silent, turned around, and walked back into the classroom. He patted Tang Xiaorou on the shoulder and said, “Someone is looking for you at the back door.”

Tang Xiaorou was taken aback for a moment but still stood up and followed Fang Yu out the back door of the classroom.

Upon seeing Yang Xu, Tang Xiaorou’s expression immediately turned ugly.

Fang Yu wanted to head to the restroom but was once again blocked by Yang Xu.

Fang Yu frowned slightly, looking at Yang Xu.

“Yang Xu, what do you want with me?” Tang Xiaorou asked impatiently.

“I heard you publicly declared in front of the whole class that you wanted to sit with this Fang Yu. I’m just curious to see what your new deskmate is like,” Yang Xu said, still wearing a smile that could charm many girls.

“What’s it to you?!” Tang Xiaorou retorted angrily.

Yang Xu ignored Tang Xiaorou and looked at Fang Yu, shaking his head as he said, “Too ordinary, really too ordinary. I can’t think of any attractive qualities about him… really can’t.”

After saying that, he turned back to Tang Xiaorou, squinting as he said, “Of course, I guess you don’t like him either, but I just don’t like other boys getting too close to you, do you understand?”

Tang Xiaorou’s face turned pale with anger as she said, “Yang Xu, who do you think you are? You have no right to…”

“I may not have the right to control you, but I can control others,” Yang Xu said with a cold smile, glancing at Fang Yu.

“Class is about to start, I’m leaving,” Yang Xu said with a slight smile before turning to leave.

After Yang Xu left, Fang Yu looked at Tang Xiaorou with a blank expression.

“I’m sorry, Yang Xu is just a lunatic… I have nothing to do with him; he has been pursuing me, but I’ve rejected him many times…” Tang Xiaorou stammered under Fang Yu’s gaze.

“You need to get the transfer sorted out as soon as possible.” After saying that, Fang Yu turned and walked toward the restroom.

Tang Xiaorou stood there, gritting her teeth in anger.

Tang Mingde had told her to communicate more with Fang Yu, but with Fang Yu’s arrogant personality, it was impossible to communicate!

When Fang Yu returned to the classroom, the class began to buzz with discussion again, and the surrounding students occasionally cast strange glances at him.

“Fang Yu is done for this time; it’s one thing to provoke He Donglin, but now he’s messed with the prestigious Yang family’s young master, Yang Xu!”

“Yeah, that’s Young Master Yang, his family background is on par with Tang Xiaorou’s, and he’s also Tang Xiaorou’s biggest pursuer…”

“But it’s hard to say; Fang Yu got He Donglin hurt so badly and still came out fine, maybe…”

Hearing this, Jiang Yue, sitting in the front row, laughed mockingly and said, “Do you really think that Fang Yu has any background? Let me tell you, the only reason he’s fine is because of Tang Xiaorou! Now that he’s provoked someone with an equally strong background like Yang Xu, Tang Xiaorou won’t be able to protect him!”

“I heard Yang Xu has a very powerful sister… and she dotes on him a lot,” Xu Xiaona said from the side.

Jiang Yue glanced at Fang Yu in the corner and sneered, “Let’s see if this toad has any self-awareness. If he takes the initiative to move, Young Master Yang might let him off. Otherwise, let’s just wait for the show.”

With Fang Yu’s keen hearing, he naturally heard these discussions clearly.

But he wasn’t going to get worked up over these little brats. He just had a more thorough understanding of how much trouble Tang Xiaorou could bring him.

In just two days of sitting together, Tang Xiaorou had inexplicably brought him two rivals. Meanwhile, many people in the class were mocking him out of envy and jealousy.

Fang Yu had kept a low profile for over two years, yet within two days, he had become famous in class, and if nothing unexpected happened, he would soon be known throughout the school.

Moreover, this influence would be lasting. Even if Tang Xiaorou transferred classes now, these effects wouldn’t disappear. One could even anticipate that the mockery in class would only increase.

That’s just human nature; Fang Yu had experienced it long ago.

“Forget it, let nature take its course.”

Since he couldn’t keep a low profile, then he wouldn’t.

After school in the afternoon, as Fang Yu was about to get up and leave, Tang Xiaorou hurriedly asked, “Fang Yu, um, the prescription you wrote for my grandfather the other day had two types of herbs, and we asked many large herbal shops, but they all said they don’t have them…”

“That’s your problem. I already said some herbs are very rare and hard to find; I can’t help it,” Fang Yu replied.

After saying that, Fang Yu walked away.

Tang Xiaorou pouted and lowered her head to pack her books.

…

Fang Yu walked home slowly as usual.

A medium-sized truck was parked by the roadside, and Fang Yu walked past it on the sidewalk.

In the driver’s seat of the truck sat a bald, muscular man with a tattooed arm, the same big guy who had been kicked by Fang Yu yesterday in the academic affairs office and couldn’t get up.

Seeing Fang Yu, the big guy’s eyes turned fierce.

Yesterday, Fang Yu had kicked him away, injuring his abdomen and humiliating him.

He had to take revenge personally!

So, he endured the pain in his abdomen and volunteered to take on today’s task from He Wencheng.

Staring at Fang Yu’s back, the big guy picked up the walkie-talkie and said, “Boss, that little bastard has shown up.”

“Okay, proceed as planned. I want that little punk to die without a trace!” He Wencheng said viciously.

The big guy tossed the walkie-talkie onto the passenger seat and kept his eyes fixed on Fang Yu’s movements.

Ahead was a traffic light; according to Fang Yu’s route home, he would have to pass the crosswalk soon.

At that moment, the big guy would slam the gas pedal and drive the truck straight into him.

“No matter how tough you are, can you withstand a truck?” The big guy revealed a cruel smile.

A minute later, Fang Yu reached the crosswalk, and just as the light turned green, he slowly walked across.

The big guy pressed the gas pedal.

Thus, a ten-ton truck sped toward Fang Yu.

Behind Fang Yu was a beautiful woman in a black teacher’s uniform, also wanting to cross the street.

Hearing the roar of the engine, she turned her head and saw a large truck racing toward the crosswalk, showing no signs of slowing down even though the light was red.

The woman turned pale with fright, seeing Fang Yu already in the middle of the crosswalk, and screamed, “Watch out! Quickly dodge…”

“Bang!”

A loud metallic crash drowned out the woman’s scream.

The woman’s hair was blown into disarray by the wind created by the passing truck.

She watched as the truck sped past, leaving a black tire mark on the ground, her face turning ashen.

A student from Jianghai Middle School had just been killed by a truck right in front of her!

The woman’s mind went blank, completely unaware that at that moment, the truck’s four rear wheels were still grinding against the ground, making a series of piercing sounds.

However, even with the rear wheels fully powered, the truck could not move an inch further.

A dent appeared in the front of the truck!

The big guy in the driver’s seat was left bloodied from the collision.

At that moment, he was frantically pressing the gas pedal and twisting the steering wheel.

“What’s going on!? What’s happening?!”

The big guy’s original plan was to run over Fang Yu and then speed away.

But when the truck hit Fang Yu, it felt nothing like hitting a person; it felt like hitting a steel plate!

And now, his truck was blocked by that steel plate!
