#416 - Chapter 415 Did I Let You Go (Two in One)
Li Chenqiu didn't respond, just quietly looking at the other party.
The corners of Zhou Yaoguang's mouth turned up, and he gestured to those who were injured, continuing, "You hit my people, if I don't care, wouldn't I become a laughing stock? You think I'm right!"
"Just say what you want to do!" Li Chenqiu replied coldly.
"Apologize to my people, and hand over your student card for everyone to spend here, consider it as medical expenses. If you do this, then this matter is over."
Zhou Yaoguang smiled playfully, staring intently at Li Chenqiu's face, seemingly anticipating his reaction after hearing these words.
"So, this guy is Li Chenqiu. I thought his voice sounded strange at the elevator entrance. It turns out he deliberately changed his tone, afraid of being recognized."
"He hit Zhou Yaoguang's people, Li Chenqiu is probably in trouble now!"
"Do you think Li Chenqiu will choose to confront him head-on, or will he yield to Zhou Yaoguang?"
"That goes without saying, he will definitely yield. Zhou Yaoguang's father is the Vice楼主 of the Myriad Stars Building. Unless Li Chenqiu doesn't want to buy anything in the Myriad Stars Building in the future!"
"That's right, his father can just give a greeting to his subordinates, and no shop would dare to receive Li Chenqiu."
"I'm so envious, I also want to be the son of these big shots."
The shop assistants stayed at the entrances of their respective shops, gathering in twos and threes, whispering to each other.
In the arena, after hearing what Zhou Yaoguang said, Li Chenqiu's face gradually darkened, pretending to suppress his anger, he said, "Do you think what you're saying is realistic?"
"Realistic?" Zhou Yaoguang looked at the others beside him with a puzzled expression: "Do you think what I said is unrealistic?"
"Realistic, Zhou-ge's words are very realistic!"
"Li Chenqiu, don't think that just because you're a Discipline Enforcer, you can do whatever you want in the academy. Zhou Senior's energy is much greater than you think."
"If you know what's good for you, then do as you're told, apologize, let us spend some money, it's not a difficult thing anyway."
The people standing around chimed in.
Seeing Li Chenqiu standing still and not saying anything for a long time, Zhou Yaoguang threatened with an displeased expression:
"You should know the rules of the Myriad Stars Building, fighting here will result in a one-year ban from entering the Myriad Stars Building, and the price of buying things will increase by 20% in the future.
If you don't want to do as I say, then I can only let someone present take the initiative to hit you, eventually escalating to a mutual brawl, so you can enjoy this 20% increase. Do you want to see such a result?"
Li Chenqiu's brows furrowed slightly, and the gloom between his brows grew heavier and heavier.
The people surrounding him felt a faint sense of unease in their hearts, and retreated a little without leaving a trace.
Just when the atmosphere in the arena was about to drop to freezing point, an old voice came from the outer periphery of the crowd.
"Thank you, let me through, let me through..."
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, and saw an old man with a weathered face and a slightly hunched back struggling to squeeze in.
This person was none other than Li Ji, who was supposed to be resting.
"Everyone is a student of the same academy, why did it suddenly become like this? It shouldn't be!" Li Ji stood in front of Li Chenqiu, smiling gently.
Zhou Yaoguang sized up Li Ji unscrupulously: "Who are you?"
"I am Li Chenqiu's elder. You are his senior, Zhou Yaoguang, right? This child is ignorant and may have offended you somewhere. I apologize to you on his behalf. I will definitely teach him a lesson when I get back, definitely!"
As he spoke, Li Ji grabbed Li Chenqiu's arm, wanting to walk towards the outside of the crowd.
Zhou Yaoguang gave a look, and several students understood and stepped forward to block Li Ji's path with their bodies.
"Old man, this matter can't be resolved by you apologizing on his behalf. An apology can't heal my brother's injuries!" Zhou Yaoguang said with a soft smile.
Li Ji turned around, just as he was about to say something, he was grabbed by Li Chenqiu.
"What happened last night was my fault. I apologize to you here. There are nearly 400,000 star points in this card. You can buy whatever you want, just consider it as my compensation. Remember to send it to the Discipline Department after you're done using it."
Li Chenqiu took out his student card from his pocket and threw it into Zhou Yaoguang's hand.
"Hehehe, Discipline Enforcer Li is really able to yield when necessary!" Zhou Yaoguang glanced at Li Chenqiu with disdain, turned around and left, and raised his arm high, shaking the student card: "Let's go."
Everyone followed suit, mocking Li Chenqiu as they walked, their voices undisguised.
"I thought this Li Chenqiu was so powerful, but he turned out to be a softie!"
"What if he's strong? Without a background, he has to obediently bow his head and make way when he meets us, hahaha."
"Nearly 400,000 star points, what should I buy later? I'm looking forward to it!"
...
This group of people came quickly and left quickly, disappearing from the eighty-first floor in less than a moment.
"You, you, can't you be a little more low-key when doing things? Haven't you heard the saying 'A tree that stands out in the forest will be blown down by the wind'!"
Li Ji scolded unhappily, raising his hand and slapping the back of Li Chenqiu's neck hard.
"I know, I know, I will definitely be low-key in the future, and I will never cause trouble again." Li Chenqiu pulled Li Ji towards the elevator.
"You just threw away nearly 400,000 star points like that, have you learned your lesson!"
"Boss, don't rub salt in my wounds, my heart is already hurting enough!"
"It's to make you hurt, otherwise you'll dare to do this next time!"
After leaving the Myriad Stars Building, Li Chenqiu did not waste time on the road, took the subway, and sent Li Ji back to the villa.
"Boss, there are some things at the Discipline Department that I need to handle, I have to go there. You stay at home with my second brother and don't go out." Li Chenqiu instructed, standing at the door.
"Ah?" Li Ji was slightly stunned: "You're leaving just after coming back?"
Li Chenqiu nodded honestly: "Yes, things are more urgent."
"Then okay, remember to come back early, I'll leave food for you."
"It won't be too long, I'm leaving."
Bang!
As the door closed, the smile on Li Chenqiu's face disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he turned to walk behind him.
It was okay to force him to apologize, but they even dared to go further and extort the salary that he had just received and hadn't even warmed up yet. Li Chenqiu could not tolerate or forgive this kind of behavior!
...
What happened on the eighty-first floor, under the deliberate publicity of Zhou Yaoguang and others, spread throughout the entire academy in less than ten minutes, and the live video was also spreading wildly on major forums and Moments.
"This Li Chenqiu is too lame, at least he's the Discipline Enforcer of the Discipline Department, and he just threw his student card out in public like that, it's really awesome."
"Having such a Discipline Enforcer, the Discipline Department's face has been completely lost."
"I estimate that it won't be long before the Discipline Enforcer of District One will be replaced!"
"I thought this guy had some ability before, it's really disappointing!"
"No matter how capable he is, how can he fight against the Zhou Consortium? In the final analysis, he's just a poor boy who got lucky!"
Under the fermentation of public opinion, Li Chenqiu's already bad reputation became even worse, and the prestige he had previously established collapsed at this moment.
At the same time, there was also a lot of scolding in the Discipline Department, except for District One, which Li Chenqiu managed.
"Discipline Enforcer Li has completely lost face this time." Han Xiaoxiao held her mobile phone, watching the video that was spreading wildly in Moments.
"A Discipline Enforcer being blackmailed by a student, this is really something." Someone said with a speechless smile.
"There's no way, the other three districts have the shadows of consortia behind them, only our District One is clean and innocent. When we encounter this kind of thing, what can we do except admit defeat."
...
The sky was approaching dusk, and street lights lit up one after another. In the hundred-story Myriad Stars Building, colorful lights like stars passed through the glass curtain wall, intertwined with the light of the setting sun.
Looking from afar, it was like putting a dazzling and psychedelic coat on the entire building, making people drunk.
At the foot of the Myriad Stars Building, in an inconspicuous shadow, a young man wearing a mask, crossing his legs, and holding a newspaper sat quietly on a public bench.
If someone deliberately paid attention to this young man, they would find that he had been sitting here for almost an hour.
If they could be even more deliberate, they might notice that the newspaper the young man was holding had two eye-sized holes poked in it.
"Spending my money is really not painful, buying something can take so long!" Li Chenqiu slowly clenched the hand holding the newspaper, and the voice squeezed out from between his teeth sounded particularly harsh.
"Ji Ji Ji!"
The little sparrow sleeping on top of Li Chenqiu's head was awakened, flapping its wings in dissatisfaction.
"Go, go, go."
Li Chenqiu shook his head impatiently, forcing the little sparrow to flap its wings and fly to the branches above his head, making dissatisfied "Ji Ji" sounds, which disturbed him.
Hua——
Li Chenqiu closed the newspaper irritably, got up and changed to another public bench to sit down, but the sparrow seemed to hold a grudge against him, and also changed its position, continuing to scold him.
"Do you want to die!"
"Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji——"
Li Chenqiu: (￣(工)￣)
While they were arguing, at the same time, Zhou Yaoguang and his group were carrying large and small bags, slowly walking towards the exit of the Myriad Stars Building, everyone radiant and smiling.
Zhou Yaoguang, who was walking at the front, turned his head and asked the young man beside him, "How many star points are left in that card?"
"Less than a hundred left."
Zhou Yaoguang pointed to the shop in the distance and said, "Go buy each person a Level 1 meat sausage, don't leave any leftovers."
"Zhou-ge, don't worry, I won't leave any leftovers!"
After saying that, the young man took Li Chenqiu's student card and ran hurriedly towards the shop.
"Zhou-ge, the academy's forums are exploding, all praising you for being awesome. You've completely become a famous figure in the academy!" Someone came to Zhou Yaoguang's side excitedly, holding a mobile phone.
"Is that so?"
Zhou Yaoguang raised his eyebrows and looked down at the other party's mobile phone screen.
"Zhou-ge, look at this post praising you, the likes have exceeded a thousand!"
"Hahaha, this is too exaggerated!" Zhou Yaoguang couldn't stop laughing, pointing to a certain comment and saying, "Let me be the Discipline Enforcer of District One, do I have that ability?"
"You definitely have it!"
"That Li Chenqiu can be it, you're so much stronger than him, I feel like you're more than qualified to be the Director!"
"You guys are too exaggerated!"
A group of people talked and laughed, attracting passersby to look sideways.
Outside the Myriad Stars Building, Li Chenqiu, who was confronting the sparrow, twitched his ears slightly, and captured the noise of Zhou Yaoguang and others from afar.
"They're finally here!"
Li Chenqiu's eyes lit up, he slowly got up, threw the newspaper into the trash can casually, and stared straight at the direction of the Myriad Stars Building gate.
Soon, Zhou Yaoguang and others, under Li Chenqiu's gaze, walked out of the gate carrying large and small bags, eating the Level 1 meat sausage that he originally wanted to buy but felt was not worth it.
Kacha Kacha——
A series of crisp sounds came from Li Chenqiu's clenched fist, and the anger in his eyes surged like a huge wave.
He reached out and took off his mask, and strode forward, straight towards Zhou Yaoguang and his group.
"Zhou-ge, isn't that Li Chenqiu?" A student pointed to the front and said.
"Li Chenqiu?"
Everyone stopped discussing and turned their heads to look in the direction pointed by the student, and saw Li Chenqiu, who was wearing casual clothes and had a gloomy face.
"Li Chenqiu, what is he doing here?"
"It feels... it feels a little bad, is this guy not going to attack us?"
"I have this feeling too."
Those students who had been beaten by Li Chenqiu subconsciously retreated, with more or less uneasiness on their faces.
"What are you afraid of? Didn't you see that Zhou-ge is still here?"
"That's right, didn't you see how afraid Li Chenqiu was of Zhou-ge before?"
Zhou Yaoguang smiled smugly, and said calmly: "What is there to be afraid of with a Li Chenqiu? With me here, he can't make any waves, unless he doesn't plan to buy anything in the Myriad Stars Building in the future."
Hearing this, those people's hearts gradually settled down.
The Myriad Stars Building is extremely important to everyone in the Star Plucking Academy. They believed that even if Li Chenqiu had the idea of attacking, he would not dare to mess around in front of Zhou Yaoguang.
Tap!
Li Chenqiu stopped ten steps away from the crowd.
"I was still planning to send someone to send your student card to the Discipline Department, but it seems that's not necessary. Thank you, we had a lot of fun swiping your card!"
Zhou Yaoguang shook the meat sausage in his hand with a smile, and gave a look to the student standing beside him.
The student took out the student card from his pocket and threw it at Li Chenqiu: "Here, for you!"
Li Chenqiu took the student card, frowned slightly, took out a tissue from his pocket, wiped the oil stains on the card, and asked, "How many star points are left in the card?"
"Ask you, how many are left?" Zhou Yaoguang nudged the student in charge of keeping the student card with his elbow.
The student stretched out a finger: "There's one star point left."
Zhou Yaoguang said dissatisfiedly, "Didn't I tell you not to leave any leftovers?"
"Zhou-ge, a Level 1 meat sausage costs two star points, this remaining one star point can't buy anything!"
"Don't do it again." Zhou Yaoguang patted the other party's shoulder and turned his attention to Li Chenqiu: "The remaining one star point will be considered as me treating you to a meat sausage, here's the other half."
As he said that, Zhou Yaoguang threw the half-eaten meat sausage in his hand at Li Chenqiu's feet like trash, put his hands in his pockets and walked towards the left front: "Let's go."
Everyone followed sparsely.
Li Chenqiu put the cleaned student card into his pocket and said in a deep voice, "Did I let you go?"
