Although Xiao Yifei wasn’t sure exactly how much was on the Black Card that Jiang Mingquan gave him, seeing the scorpion’s reaction indicated it was a hefty sum. Despite this, Xiao Yifei felt uneasy because the card came from Jiang Mingquan. But the 5.5 million transferred to his own card was indeed hard-earned cash!
Suddenly becoming a millionaire, Xiao Yifei felt dazed for a moment, then he grinned and started to laugh again.
"It’s true! I’m a good person, and good people get good returns. Does this count as success in both love and wealth?"
Xiao Yifei chuckled to himself. Now, he could also be considered a wealthy man!
With a spring in his step and a beaming face, Xiao Yifei donned his coat and scampered out of the house, heading towards Yanjing Medical University.
It just so happened that as he arrived at the door today, he bumped into Wang Teng again. Sun Li frowned upon seeing Wang Peng, remembering how Wang Peng always showed off to him. Sun Li felt a bit disgusted and decided to leave quickly. However, when Wang Teng saw Xiao Yifei, his eyes lit up, and with a sycophantic smile, he made his way over to him.
"Xiao Yifei! What a coincidence! We keep running into each other these days!"
He had an exaggerated smile on his face, trying desperately to cozy up to Xiao Yifei.
"Xiao Yifei, Xiao Yifei, don’t go! I was about to invite you to a meal! We haven’t seen each other for so long, and the last few times we met, I forgot to offer to take you out for a meal! Xiao Yifei, don’t leave!"
With a shameless face, Wang Teng followed Xiao Yifei with that flattering smile from the school entrance all the way inside the campus.
But Xiao Yifei still didn’t pay any attention to Wang Teng, continuing to walk forward without a sideways glance.
"Hey! Xiao Yifei, Xiao Yifei! Are you coming for the meal or not? Even if you don’t come for the meal, at least give me your phone number! After all, we haven’t seen each other for so long!"
Xiao Yifei ultimately ignored Wang Teng and quickened his pace into the school.
Wang Teng, with a huff, slapped his thigh in annoyance!
"Brother Wang, who is that? Why is he so arrogant, with that conceited look on his face, not even paying attention to you?"
Next to him, a friend of Wang Teng’s craned his neck forward, furrowing his brow as he watched Xiao Yifei walk away, cursing under his breath.
Having heard his friend’s words, Wang Teng’s eyes widened, and he stared straight at his friend, jumping three feet in the air and fiercely raising his hand to strike his friend’s head.
"What nonsense are you spouting! You dare to insult anyone! He is my classmate! He deserves to be arrogant, what right do you have to talk about him! I don’t even dare to speak of him, what gives you the right?" Latest content published on novel fire.net
Wang Teng kept hitting his friend’s head repeatedly until his friend shrank his neck and stopped talking.
After stopping his hand, he looked in the direction where Xiao Yifei had gone, his eyes filled with admiration.
"Now this is a true character! Despite being so capable, he remains so low-key—I really admire that! I always said Xiao Yifei must be the most successful among our cohort!"
Wang Teng’s attitude towards Xiao Yifei had undergone a complete turnaround!
By this time, Xiao Yifei had already arrived at the teachers’ lounge. He wasn’t teaching many classes this semester, just one on Surgery. After greeting the other teachers in the study room, Xiao Yifei sat down in his chair to prepare for his class, as he was due to teach shortly.
However, just at this moment, the door to the teachers’ lounge was flung open with a bang, and Shen Liguo stormed in furiously. Without even a glance around, he strode directly towards Xiao Yifei.
"Aren’t you ashamed? A teacher bullying students—what a great role model you are! I won’t say anything about you bullying students from your own class, but how dare you bully students from my class too? Do you really think you’re somebody? I agreed to that competition just to give you a lesson in humility, and now you think you can challenge me?"
Fury filled Shen Liguo’s face, and he started accusing Xiao Yifei the moment he laid eyes on him.
"What’s the matter? Can’t we have a civil conversation?"
Xiao Yifei tilted his head, looking at Shen Liguo with a hint of confusion in his eyes, not understanding what Shen Liguo meant.
"Hmph, talk nicely? How can we talk nicely? Did you, with your Clinical Class 3 and 4 bunch of losers, bully our class’s Gao Jianjun? Do you have any idea who Jianjun’s father is? His father is the big shot of the Yanjing City Construction Bureau, and he made a point to greet me personally, asking me to take care of his son. And who are you, a mere teacher, to bully the son of the head of the City Construction Bureau?"
Shen Liguo frowned and scolded Xiao Yifei angrily.
"I’ve seen it myself, Jianjun’s hand was all cut up and bleeding profusely. I only found out after asking what kind of teacher you are! Dare to bully a student? Do you not want your job anymore? If you don’t want it, get lost early! Don’t wait until someone comes knocking on your door to deal with you—then you’ll be sorry!"
He told Xiao Yifei reproachfully.
Shen Liguo’s reprimand of Xiao Yifei attracted the attention of the other teachers in the lounge, but this time, upon seeing the scene, they only sighed and did not say much.
If everyone had once believed that Xiao Yifei came from a substantial background, time had passed since he arrived at the school with no special instructions received to take extra care of him. Shen Liguo and Xiao Yifei’s conflicts had become overt, and nobody stood up to defend Xiao Yifei, nor did anyone protest the unfair competition. Gradually, everyone viewed Xiao Yifei as merely a fortunate individual who luckily gained the school’s favor and became a teacher, without any significant backing.
Qi Xunlei took a deep breath as he looked at the plainly dressed Xiao Yifei. During Xiao Yifei’s several clashes with Shen Liguo, Qi Xunlei had tried to mediate several times to no avail; this time he finally didn’t speak up for Xiao Yifei and instead turned his head away to attend to his affairs.
"Teacher Shen, have you not clarified the situation before coming here and unleashing your anger on me? Do you even know what actually happened?"
Xiao Yifei raised his head to look at Shen Liguo, with a trace of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
"Humph! I don’t need to know the situation! All I need to tell you is that Jianjun is the kid I’m looking after, and the Clinical Class 1 and 2 are also my responsibility. Go back and let those wasted classes you’re teaching, Clinical 3 and 4, know for the future when they see Class 1 and 2 students, they better tuck their tails and steer clear of them!"
Shen Liguo huffed coldly, his eyes carrying a threat as he spoke to Xiao Yifei. "If I hear one more time that Jianjun is bullied, don’t blame me for not being polite! Not just me, but Jianjun’s dad won’t let you off either. When the time comes, and you feel our wrath, don’t come crying because you’ll have nowhere to cry! Just do your little teacher gig and stay out of trouble!"
After a bout of scolding and threatening Xiao Yifei, Shen Liguo sneered, his face filled with arrogance, hands clasped behind his back, head held high as he walked away.
