Chapter 720: Chapter 720: A Bastard Child Behaving So Arrogantly?
As finals approached, with a wave of his hand, Jiang Li sent Jiang Cheng back to school early in the morning.
His leg hadn’t fully healed yet, limping as he got out of the car, but he cheerfully greeted Jiang Li.
"Big sis, wait and see, I’ll come back as the top student of the whole school!"
It was the first time his sister had taken him to school.
He felt thrilled! ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Jiang Li waved her hand, "Okay, get going then."
But Jiang Cheng kept looking back reluctantly.
"Then sis, will you come to pick me up next time during the holidays?"
Jiang Li didn’t even think before answering, "Why not?"
Jiang Cheng immediately brightened up, "Even if I finish last, you’ll still come get me?"
Jiang Li nodded, "Yes, because I need to make sure the feather duster lands on your butt right away."
Jiang Cheng: "...."
Perhaps thinking of something unpleasant, he subconsciously covered his butt and rushed into the school.
As soon as he entered, he overheard two tall boys whispering to each other.
"Damn, look at the little sister in that BMW, she’s so pretty."
"Damn, really, tsk tsk, and it’s a top-of-the-line BMW 740, my dad has one too, looks like some guy’s spoiling her."
"Hahahaha."
Jiang Cheng, with a dark face, stood in front of them blocking their way.
"Did you forget to brush your teeth this morning?"
The crew-cut boy looked at him coldly, "Who the fuck are you talking to?"
Jiang Cheng took another step forward, his expression turning grim.
"Talking to you."
The people nearby glanced at him, quickly pulled his friend back, and whispered, "That’s Jiang Cheng from Class Three, he’s crazy, we can’t afford to mess with him!"
The student’s face stiffened, fear flickered through his eyes, and he stiffened his neck.
"I’m sorry, okay? My bad, let’s just drop it?"
Then he quickly ran away.
Jiang Cheng had originally wanted to give him a good lesson, but then he suddenly remembered Jiang Li’s words.
Shaking his head, his face brightened up again, and clutching his backpack straps, he walked into the classroom building like a good student.
Jiang Cheng dutifully followed Jiang Li’s instructions and went straight to the office to see his teacher, sincerely apologizing.
"...Teacher, it’s all my fault, I shouldn’t have lied or skipped classes, I’m willing to accept any punishment..."
Jiang Cheng sincerely bowed, but there was no response from the teacher for a long while.
He quietly looked up and to his surprise, found his teacher, often referred to as the "Iron Lady", watching a mix video of him and his sister in "Wilderness Survival."
"Teacher...." Jiang Cheng called again, and the teacher quickly shut down the computer and adjusted her glasses.
"Ah, this, Jiang Cheng," she coughed twice, "It’s true that lying and skipping classes was wrong, but considering it’s your first offense and you usually study hard, as long as you don’t fall behind in this exam, I won’t record a demerit, don’t worry."
Jiang Cheng widened his eyes, "Really, teacher?"
"Really, now go back to your class. The finals are the day after tomorrow, better start preparing."
"Okay, thank you, teacher!"
Jiang Cheng bowed deeply once more, then left the office chuckling.
Around the corner of the hallway, he ran into Zhou Wenqi, who was carrying a stack of test papers.
She walked expressionlessly, her face nearly buried in her thick black glasses, until she saw him and her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Jiang Cheng?! You’re back?!"
Jiang Cheng hummed in response, glanced at him sideways, and squeezed out two words—
"Thank you."
Zhou Wenqi was puzzled, "Why are you thanking me?"
Jiang Cheng turned his head away.
"You knew I skipped class, but you didn’t tell the teacher. I’m thanking you for that."
Jiang Cheng’s words made Zhou Wenqi feel embarrassed, and his cheeks grew warm.
"Actually, I should be the one thanking you, not only you but also your sister. My brother is now quite famous, he has established his own studio, and he even bought a car a few days ago. We are preparing to move soon."
Mom said it was all because my brother had met someone who appreciated him and that he should treat that person’s sister well at school no matter what.
"And I know, Jiang Cheng, you’re not really a bad person. You must have had your reasons for skipping class, so I didn’t tell the teacher."
Jiang Cheng snorted proudly, "Good that you know."
Zhou Wenqi looked up expectantly, "So when can your sister come to our house for dinner? My mom and I really miss her."
Jiang Cheng: ?
So this kid was setting the stage for this!
He scowled and slapped Zhou Wenqi lightly.
"Don’t even think about it, she’s my sister!"
With that, he turned around with a sullen face and returned to the classroom.
These people really, why does everyone treat Jiang Li like their own sister?
Class Three was on the first floor, the famously academically strong class of the school. Even before he approached, the sound of loud reading filled the corridor.
But when Jiang Cheng appeared at the doorway, the reading stopped abruptly.
Everyone simultaneously turned to look at him, each with a different expression.
Jiang Cheng assumed they were watching his variety show and strutted back to his seat with his chin up.
But from morning reading time, he felt there was something strange about the atmosphere in the class.
Even after class, his usual group of followers didn’t come over to him.
It was only when he was cleaning up some things to throw in the trash that several tall boys from the back row blocked his way.
Jiang Cheng’s eyes darkened, his face showing increased impatience.
"Move."
The guy crossed his arms, his expression even more defiant than Jiang Cheng’s.
"Not moving, what you gonna do?"
"A bastard child being so arrogant, how laughable."
"I wonder why I’ve never seen your parents, turns out you were born out of wedlock."
The few of them exchanged words, and suddenly the classroom fell silent.
Jiang Cheng’s blood ran cold, and he couldn’t help but turn pale.
Seeing his reaction, the group laughed even louder.
"So it’s true, I thought my mom was just bluffing."
"Tsks tsks, no wonder you’re so good-looking, turns out your real mom was a shameless mistress."
With a "snap", Jiang Cheng broke the useless pen in his hand, and the next second, the broken pen’s tip stabbed into the guy’s palm.
Jiang Cheng pinned him to the ground, his eyes bloodshot, slowly enunciating, "What... did... you... say?!"
Other students, seeing the pool of blood, screamed in terror and ran out of the classroom.
"Someone’s hitting someone!"
"Teacher, help, someone’s being beaten!"
The entire grade instantly turned into chaos.
Just coming out of the office, Zhou Wenqi heard the noise, muttered "This is bad" to himself, and immediately rushed to Class Three.
Sure enough, inside, Jiang Cheng was already tangled up fighting with someone, surrounded by students excited for the drama.
Someone shouted, "The head of discipline is coming!" and the crowd dispersed like birds.
