Chapter 5: Taking Action?

 

Fang Yu finally turned his attention to the woman who had fainted.

Although her face was smeared with some blood, her stunning beauty was still evident.

More importantly, this face bore a striking resemblance to a female friend of Fang Yu’s from many years ago.

“Could she be her descendant?” Fang Yu thought to himself.

Of course, it could also be a coincidence.

According to probability, after so many years and with the Earth’s population increasing, it was normal for someone with a similar appearance to appear.

Because of this face, Fang Yu decided to save the woman.

Ten minutes later, Fang Yu had bandaged her wounds, stopped the bleeding, and called for an ambulance.

By the time the ambulance arrived, Fang Yu had already left.

The woman was carried onto the ambulance by medical personnel and taken to the hospital.

Fang Yu strolled home leisurely, holding freshly picked vegetables.

……

In Jianghai City, at the Yang family’s study.

A stunningly beautiful woman in a silk nightgown leaned back in a chair, gazing out at the night view.

The phone on the desk rang, and the woman frowned slightly as she picked it up.

“Miss Yang, the mission has failed. Ji Rubai has been sent to the hospital, and the Ji family has dispatched many people to protect her at the hospital. We probably won’t have another chance in the short term…”

“I only need to know the reason for the mission’s failure; there’s no need for further discussion.” The woman’s voice was icy, laced with a hint of murderous intent.

“We’re still investigating the reason… Currently, we only know that our two assassins had successfully dealt with Ji Rubai’s bodyguard and forced Ji Rubai to jump from a vehicle on the mountain road near Jiannan Village. After that, they completely lost contact, and Ji Rubai was…”

Upon hearing this, the woman realized that someone unexpected had intervened to save Ji Rubai; otherwise, she would never have survived and been sent to the hospital.

“Three days. I give you three days to find the person who saved Ji Rubai,” the woman commanded.

After hanging up the phone, she picked up a wine glass from the table with her fair, delicate hand, gently swirling it and watching the deep red liquid slosh inside.

“No matter who you are, if you dare to disrupt my plan, Yang Yinzhu, I will dig you out even if I have to turn the earth upside down.”

……

The next morning, as Fang Yu entered the classroom, he saw a desk lying on its side in the empty space at the back, along with scattered books all over the floor.

On his original seat, only a chair remained.

The gazes of his classmates towards Fang Yu were mostly filled with mockery and ridicule, with a few showing sympathy.

Fang Yu frowned slightly and asked, “Who did this?”

No one answered his question.

Fang Yu looked around and asked again, “Could you please tell me who did this?”

“Hey, seeing you so pitiful, I’ll tell you. It was He Donglin and his gang,” a pretty girl named Jiang Yue said impatiently.

Jiang Yue had been the class flower before Tang Xiaorou transferred to Class Two and was also one of He Donglin’s ex-girlfriends.

“Oh, so it was him,” Fang Yu nodded and glanced at He Donglin’s seat, noticing he hadn’t arrived yet.

“What can you do about it being him? Are you going to beat him up? When he comes, you won’t dare to say a word, will you? What are you pretending to be here for? It’s annoying to see,” Jiang Yue said sharply.

Fang Yu gave Jiang Yue a faint glance.

In Jianghai High School for over two years, he had hardly made his presence felt in class and had never offended anyone.

Yet Jiang Yue spoke to him with an inexplicable disdain.

“I haven’t offended you, have I? Why do you have to say that about me?” Fang Yu asked.

“Heh, I just find you unpleasant. What are you going to do about it? I just like to insult you, so what?” Jiang Yue said, tilting her head with an air of superiority.

Since Tang Xiaorou transferred to Class Two yesterday, Jiang Yue had been in a bad mood.

She had once been the center of attention in class, but now all the discussions among the boys and girls revolved around Tang Xiaorou.

As Fang Yu was Tang Xiaorou’s deskmate, Jiang Yue found him extremely displeasing.

Moreover, Fang Yu had no status in class; he was just a soft target for venting her frustrations.

Fang Yu naturally wouldn’t stoop to Jiang Yue’s level and walked towards his seat.

“A toad wanting to eat swan meat? Serves you right to be taught a lesson by He Donglin!” Jiang Yue shouted behind Fang Yu.

Fang Yu returned to his seat, sitting down without bothering to move the desk back from the back of the classroom.

The classmates nearby either laughed mockingly or looked on with curiosity.

What was Fang Yu doing? Waiting for someone to move his desk back? Or was he waiting for the homeroom teacher to come and report?

After a while, Liu Fatty entered the classroom, and upon seeing the scene, he immediately understood what had happened.

“Fang Yu, I’ll help you move the desk back,” Liu Fatty said.

“No need. When He Donglin comes, I’ll have him move it back,” Fang Yu replied.

Liu Fatty’s expression changed slightly as he said, “Fang Yu, just endure it… We can’t afford to mess with He Donglin…”

Some boys around couldn’t help but laugh, saying, “You still want He Donglin to move it back for you? Fang Yu, I used to think you were just shy and didn’t like to talk. Now I see you’re just a fool! When He Donglin comes, you’ll know you’re wrong.”

As soon as he finished speaking, He Donglin, carrying a bag, walked into the classroom with a few of his followers.

Seeing Fang Yu sitting alone in the chair, they all wore mocking smiles.

He Donglin walked directly in front of Fang Yu, feigning surprise as he said, “Fang Yu, where’s your desk?”

“Someone said you threw it to the back,” Fang Yu slightly raised his head, looking directly at He Donglin with calm eyes.

Upon meeting Fang Yu’s somewhat vacant gaze, He Donglin’s heart skipped a beat, feeling a hint of fear.

But he quickly regained his composure, feeling ashamed for having been scared just now.

Fang Yu was just a waste; why should he be afraid?

“It was me. So what? I already gave you face yesterday, but you didn’t give me any. If I don’t teach you a lesson, do you really think I’m easy to mess with?” He Donglin said loudly, no longer hiding his intentions.

“Move my desk back to its original position and tidy up the books on the floor. I won’t pursue this matter any further,” Fang Yu said.

Upon hearing this, not only He Donglin but also the other classmates were stunned.

Not pursue it further?

Who did Fang Yu think he was? Who did he think he was facing?

“Hahaha… Fang Yu, I find you quite adorable,” He Donglin laughed mockingly.

“Damn it, Donglin, I can’t hold back anymore. I really want to beat this kid up to vent my anger!” Hu Tao said, clenching his fists.

At the same time, He Donglin’s followers surrounded Fang Yu.

Seeing this, most of the classmates wore expressions of mockery, especially Jiang Yue, who couldn’t wait to see Fang Yu get beaten to tears.

Liu Fatty was sweating profusely on his forehead and hurriedly left the classroom, running towards the office.

He had to find the homeroom teacher quickly; otherwise, Fang Yu would be in big trouble!

“What did you just say? Say it again,” He Donglin said, hands on his hips, looking down at Fang Yu.

“I told you to move my desk back to its original position and tidy up the books on the floor…” Fang Yu said.

“Go to hell!” Before Fang Yu could finish, He Donglin’s face suddenly twisted in rage as he raised his right hand and slapped Fang Yu’s face.

But in the next second, Fang Yu tightly grasped his hand, rendering it immobile.

“Still dare to fight back?” Hu Tao directly raised his foot and kicked towards Fang Yu’s chest.

However, his kick was also firmly caught by Fang Yu.

“You started it first,” Fang Yu said calmly, simultaneously exerting force with both hands.

“Bang! Bang!”

He Donglin and Hu Tao were sent flying, crashing to the empty space at the back of the classroom with two dull thuds.

What just happened?

No one could react in time.

At this moment, Fang Yu had already walked to the back of the classroom, looking down at the dazed He Donglin and Hu Tao.

“Move my desk back to its original position,” Fang Yu said calmly.

When had He Donglin ever suffered such humiliation? His face turned pale with anger as he shouted, “Fang Yu, I’ll fuck your mother! You dare to lay a hand on me? I’ll make you regret it… Ah!”

Fang Yu stepped on He Donglin’s right hand, applying slight pressure.

He Donglin felt a piercing pain in his right hand and began to wail.

“Move my desk back to its original position,” Fang Yu repeated.

“I’ll fuck your mother! I’ll fuck your mother! Fang Yu, you wait for me… Ah…” He Donglin writhed in pain.

“Crack…”

A chilling sound of bones breaking echoed in the quiet classroom.

“I’ll say it one last time: move my desk… back to its original position,” Fang Yu said, still expressionless.
