Chapter 21: It Was Really Him
Translator: Editor:
Really? Thank you for that! Im going now! Yang Ming finished his sentence and he patted heavily on Wang Zhitaos shoulder. It looked like a friendly act but Yang Ming actually had used great force on him.
Wang Zhitao was patted until he gritted his teeth. Under normal circumstances, he would already be pissed off, but now he only wanted Yang Ming to step out of school as soon as possible. He didnt want to make more trouble so he acted like he was very happy, grinned and said, Youre welcome!
Yang Ming laughed as he walked out of class.
As Yang Mings front leg stepped out of the classroom, Wang Zhitaos phone vibrated.
Wang Zhitao took it out and looked. Then he glanced around, made sure no one could hear him and answered the phone.
Wang Zhitao lowered his voice and spoke, Hello, Ah Biao, are all of you there already?
Zhang Biao immediately apologized, Master, Im sorry!
Wang Zhitao was confused. He didnt understand why Zhang Biao was apologizing. What do you mean? You cant find anyone for it?
Zhang Biao complained, No, Master. This Yang Ming isnt that simple. Regarding the two punks that I found around here, once they discovered that their opponent was Yang Ming, they didnt dare fight him. Instead, they greeted Yang Ming with a smiley face!
How could it be like this?! Wang Zhitao was stunned. Eh, wait. Are you really sure you saw Yang Ming? Wang Zhitao remembered that Yang Ming had just stepped out of the classroom!
Absolutely, yes. Oh yeah. Master, Yang Ming had gone back into school. You should be careful! Zhang Biao didnt know that Wang Zhitao had already met Yang Ming.
Damn it! Wang Zhitao hung up the phone. He now realized that Yang Ming obviously knew that he hired those men and toyed with him!
When Wang Zhitao thought about this, he nearly destroyed his phone in anger. Since Wang Zhitao was exposed, he feared nothing.Since you cant be defeated using a direct method, Ill use a dirty one then. I dont think you can always get away with it!
While Yang Ming was humming a song as he walked back home, he met Li Dagang who was walking out from billiards room.
Brother, youre great! Li Dagangs sudden greeting stunned Yang Ming.
What was great? Yang Ming was confused.
Li Dagang said, Damn. Stop acting. Your test results lately have improved significantly. Young Teacher Zhao praised you several times in our class. Even the poker-faced Lao Li praised your improvements as well!
Poker-faced Lao Li was Yang Mings class teacher who taught Biology. He was famous because he always showed a strict face. Class 7 and Class 8 were counterpart classes; they shared the same teachers.
Ever since his last biology test, Yang Ming had repeated success in cheating on his exams. His results were flying like a helicopter. Thus he became the teachers example of the typical hardworking underachiever.
Yang Ming exaggerated and said without shame, Yeah right. Cant you see who I am?!
Li Dagang asked, Can you share any tricks with me?
Yang Ming said perfunctorily, Just read the textbook There is no other trick for learning
Li Dagang said sadly, Eh! Im really stupid. I would rather die than study. Its ok. Ill only stay until senior high school graduation, then Ill find a job!
Yang Ming looked at Li Dagangs face. Yang Ming nearly revealed to him about the contact lenses, but thought again,Absolutely not!I cant tell this to anyone. If not, it will bring me too much unnecessary trouble.
These contact lenses were just a cheating tool for Yang Ming. What if it fell into others hands?If one uses it for crimeYang Ming couldnt even imagine it. Fortunately, he didnt let it slip out of his mouth. If not, he would be dead without even knowing why.
As he thought of this, Yang Ming began to sweat.
Yang Ming comforted Li Dagang,Its ok. Everyone has their own ambitions; every trade has its master! Look at Xu Peng. Isnt he having a sweet life now? He even earns more than some university graduates!
Yeah, youre right! Li Dagang patted Yang Mings shoulder and said, Thank you!
Yang Ming felt weird.I had only comforted him for a bit but why did he thank me?Li Dagang was enlightened and Yang Mings worry was swept away.
Li Dagang asked, Are you going to meet with Xu Peng in the afternoon?
Yang Ming said with a smile, Im not going. I have to study before the National Higher Education Entrance Examination.
When he thought about Chan Mengyans and Zhao Yings expectations on him, Yang Ming tilted his mouth slightly.
Big Ming, the report card you brought back has improved a lot lately. Father Yang looked at Yang Ming voraciously eating the meal and said, Every night you have mathematics tutoring with Teacher Zhao Ying. Your mom and I are thinking to visit her. Maybe we could buy something for her?
There is no need for that, Dad. Yang Ming swallowed a mouthful of rice then said, Teacher Zhao isnt one of those kinds of people!
Father Yang shook his head and said, Why cant we do that? Teacher Zhao contributes a lot in the progression of your results. How could we not thank her for that?!
It is really unnecessary! Yang Ming was going to say that Zhao Ying had become his sworn sister but he didnt speak about it. He was worried that his father might get the wrong idea so Yang Ming said, Dad, Ill take her out for a meal one day!
That would work! Father Yang nodded. He took out a hundred yuan and put on the table. Then he thought for a moment and he took out another hundred yuan. He passed this money to Yang Ming and said, Find a place thats a little higher class.
That afternoon, Wang Zhitao didnt bother Yang Ming anymore. Wang Zhitao realized that he had underestimated Yang Ming. He wanted to get revenge but he was waiting for a good opportunity.
This time Wang Zhitao couldnt teach Yang Ming a lesson so it brought out Wang Zhitaos cruelty. He wont use thugs anymore. This kind of garbage method wasnt useful against Yang Ming. He prepared a method even more detrimental to Yang Ming so that he could eliminate the thorn in his side forever.
Of course, this fatal approach wont kill Yang Ming. He didnt have the guts to go that far but he thought of a way to make Yang Ming be completely discredited.
Suddenly Wang Zhitaos expression turned from a frown to a grin. It was a cold sneer.
Although Yang Ming knew Wang Zhitao hired those thugs, he didnt have much proof. He didnt really think much more about it but Wang Zhitao did something to surprise him.
