Chapter 256 — Change Your Seat

To be honest, if Wei Zhao had not been set on keeping things stable so he could live quietly in Songshan City, Zhong Yongliang would long since have been reduced to ashes scattered who knows where.

"You..." Hearing Wei Zhao's voice behind him, Zhong Yongliang had just started to turn to retort when his body suddenly went light. With a whoosh he went flying, then crashed heavily onto the podium with a bang, letting out a miserable scream.

"Change your seat. This place does not suit you, or next time I will send you flying out the classroom window." Wei Zhao kicked Zhong Yongliang's chair away and gave him a cool warning.

That kid had better learn what is good for him and stay away from Gu Mengyao, so Shen Yushu would not have to call him in to help every time. Zhong Yongliang shot Wei Zhao a venomous look but dared not say a word, because he knew anything he said now would only cost him more, and Wei Zhao would just keep hitting him. He was no match for Wei Zhao at the moment, and all he could do was endure and endure.

Seeing that Zhong Yongliang said nothing, Wei Zhao walked past him and added as he passed, "Remember what I said. If you sit in front of me again, I will have you playing the flying man every day."

"..." Zhong Yongliang clenched his teeth. When had he ever suffered such a threat? Yet this Wei Zhao was someone he could not beat in a fight, and even Brother Black Panther, his pride, was no match for him. How could he afford to provoke such a man?

Although Zhong Yongliang was unwilling to change seats, Wei Zhao had already spoken, and Zhong believed that if he refused, Wei Zhao would absolutely throw him out.

That bastard Wei Zhao was simply a madman, arrogant to the point of recklessness. The story of Jia Ruoming being slapped by Wei Zhao right in front of the dean yesterday had already spread through the whole school. Against such a lunatic, Zhong Yongliang had to admit he was no opponent.

It seemed he could only keep his distance from Gu Mengyao. To get out of that guy's sight, he would have to move to some corner for now, and move back once Wei Zhao was finished.

In any case, in this class no one besides Wei Zhao dared to defy him. Moving to wherever he wanted was only a matter of a word.

"Boss, now I really have to doubt your background. Are you really from the mountains?" Kang Xiaobo asked, eyeing Wei Zhao strangely after they left the classroom.

"An elder of mine is a trustee of the school." Wei Zhao explained his background briefly.

"Oh, no wonder! No wonder even the dean can do nothing to you, so that is why!" Kang Xiaobo suddenly understood. "That luxury car that brought you to school that morning, was that the trustee's too?"

"Mm." Wei Zhao nodded.

"Awesome!" Kang Xiaobo said excitedly. "So your background is that strong. I thought you were just a poor student like me!"

"Heh..." Wei Zhao smiled and offered no explanation.

In truth, whether his background was strong or not counted for little. Was Zhong Yongliang's background weak? Yet how was it he dared not swagger in front of Dean Wang of the academic office?

When it came down to it, was it not because he had caught Wang Zhifeng's weak spot, leaving Wang Zhifeng helpless against him?

"By the way, Boss, do you not need to use the bathroom?" Kang Xiaobo asked, puzzled to see Wei Zhao leave the classroom without heading toward the restroom.

"I just find Zhong Yongliang an eyesore and used the chance to teach him a lesson." Wei Zhao did not hide it, for he felt no urgency at all, and going to the bathroom would only expose him before Kang Xiaobo, so he simply told the truth.

"So that is it! Ha, that bastard Zhong Yongliang, let him swagger. Running into you, Boss, is just his bad luck!" Kang Xiaobo vented his anger fiercely, as if it were he himself who had beaten Zhong Yongliang.

"Did you not want to use the bathroom?" Wei Zhao asked in return.

"I just saw you come out and wanted to follow you for a stroll. Little Fen's matter has me really depressed." Kang Xiaobo said.

"Then let us go for a walk." Wei Zhao nodded, strolling casually down the corridor with Kang Xiaobo.

The senior-year corridor was empty of loiterers. Apart from those on cleaning duty, everyone was studying in the classrooms, while those with family connections or who had no hope of college were playing basketball on the field or gaming in net cafes off campus. No one wandered idly in the hall.

When they reached the door of Senior Class 5, they saw Tang Yun coming out with a bucket in hand, evidently on her way to the restroom to change the water.

Kang Xiaobo dashed over in a few quick steps. "Sister-in-law, let me do it." "Ah?" Tang Yun jumped at his sudden shout and nearly dropped the bucket. "What... what did you call me?"

"'Sister-in-law!'" Kang Xiaobo said as if it were only natural. "Yesterday Boss declared his claim over you in front of so many people, and you never denied it!"

"Stop shouting nonsense!" Tang Yun flushed slightly and handed the bucket to Kang Xiaobo. "Go fetch the water!"

"Oh, hehe, right away!" Kang Xiaobo took the bucket and scampered off toward the restroom. "Do not mind him, he is just like that."

Wei Zhao braced both hands against the corridor wall, enclosing Tang Yun between them as he spoke.

"Mm, I know." Tang Yun said shyly. "You... do not be like this, we are at school..."

Wei Zhao had meant nothing by the gesture, but at her words he realized how intimate it looked, as if he were about to kiss her. Embarrassed, he quickly drew his hands back, yet asked, "Then what about when we are not at school?"

"Ah, I am ignoring you..." Tang Yun had no wish to pursue the topic. In the past two days Wei Zhao had left her heart in turmoil, especially last night when she had hardly slept at all, the scene of Wei Zhao holding her hand to slap Jia Ruoming replaying again and again before her eyes. Did this mean she liked him? Tang Yun did not know, but she could not stop herself from thinking about it.

"Heh." Wei Zhao smiled and teased her no further. In his heart Tang Yun was different from Sun Jingyan. Toward that cunning little fox Sun Jingyan he would never be indulgent, but toward Tang Yun he felt only a careful tenderness for a young girl.

"Ah... look over at Xiaobo, something seems to have happened." Tang Yun said in a fluster, her eyes darting left and right for fear someone would see her together with Wei Zhao, and in doing so she caught Kang Xiaobo getting into trouble.

They saw Kang Xiaobo jogging all the way to the restroom, just about to enter when he crashed headlong into a big fat boy coming out.
