Chapter 302: Chapter 273: The Return of the God of War, Discovering...
On December 10, Yuan Bo returned to his country.
He was indeed coming back to take his final exams and wasn’t lying to Dana White.
Although the school had made it clear that they wanted him to prioritize his career, he still had to take the exams. Previously, his counselor had spoken to him, hinting very clearly: for non-professional subjects, they would try to let Yuan Bo pass as much as possible; as for professional classes, if he couldn’t manage, he could retake them, with teachers providing key points before the retest...
Yuan Bo felt that the school had done so much already, taking a graduation certificate was just a matter of convenience. Not taking it would be too disrespectful to his alma mater. Moreover, although a diploma wasn’t that useful for Yuan Bo now, a higher education degree always sounded better.
So, Yuan Bo canceled his meeting with Dana White and hurried back to his home country to prepare for his final exams.
"Dana White wanted to meet with me because he probably wanted to talk about signing a contract."
On the plane, Yuan Bo said to Chen Gang.
Chen Gang responded, "Most likely. After the way you handled your first match and gained more fame, he certainly wants to sign you up quickly."
"Mm, so I don’t want to talk to him."
"I really want to know what his face looked like when he heard the reason for your return."
"Well, I do have to attend my final exams."
"Ha ha ha!"
...
This time, Yuan Bo returned to his country quietly, with no prior news released, to avoid a repeat of the previous airport congestion incident. His fame was now greater than when he had returned from Southern Country, and the heat was higher.
Covering himself up tightly, Yuan Bo flew directly from New York to the airport in Imperial City.
He didn’t head to Chuhua City but went back to Shudu first because there was an issue at home, and Chen Ling asked him to come back.
...
The afternoon sun was warm. Wu Wenhua lay on a lounge chair on the balcony, sunbathing and looking at his phone, while Chen Ling watched a TV show in the living room.
This was a house Yuan Bo had bought specifically for them, located in a high-end community, spanning over two hundred square meters.
After retiring early from their jobs, Yuan Bo had suggested they travel around, but both were not the type to enjoy going out, so they mostly stayed at home.
Their son’s success and growing fame meant they were always online, reading news and various comments about him and receiving warm greetings and compliments from friends and family. There was always something keeping them occupied, so they didn’t feel bored at home.
Click, the door opened.
Chen Ling immediately got up and looked over; Wu Wenhua also put down his phone and looked towards the main door as Yuan Bo entered.
"Dad, Mom," Yuan Bo greeted with a smile.
"You’re back."
Chen Ling approached him with a smile, "Let me see, how come you’ve lost so much weight?"
"You look much thinner than in the video. Do you have to lose weight for what competition that makes you so skinny?"
Right at the encounter, Chen Ling started nagging, and Yuan Bo nodded as he walked towards the couch and flopped down on it.
"Ah, I’ll gain weight for future matches, and then you’ll complain I’m fat."
"Losing weight then gaining weight again, isn’t that bad for your health? Can’t you maintain a constant weight?"
"There’s nothing bad for my health about it; this is training my body. You see, foreigners do this all the time and they are in great shape."
"Nonsense, you’re just fooling your mom."
"Alright, tell me, what was so urgent that you had to call me back?" Yuan Bo didn’t want to hear Chen Ling’s nagging and directly asked.
Chen Ling sat next to Yuan Bo. "It’s about your uncle’s bookstore."
Yuan Bo asked, "What happened?"
Then, Chen Ling went over the issue from beginning to end:
Chen Ling had a younger brother, also Yuan Bo’s uncle, named Chen Ting, who owned a bookstore in Shudu.
Someone approached Chen Ting wanting to buy his bookstore. While Chen Ting’s business was never booming, it brought in enough income to support a family. He and his wife had run it for many years and didn’t plan to change to another business, so, of course, he declined.
So, recently, there have always been people causing trouble, making Chen Ting’s life miserable. Calling the police didn’t help as they couldn’t be stationed there every day.
Out of desperation, Chen Ting turned to Chen Ling, thinking that since Yuan Bo was now a celebrity, maybe he could help resolve the issue.
Yuan Bo listened and felt somewhat helpless, "Is that all?"
Chen Ling frowned, "What do you mean is that all?"
Yuan Bo sighed heavily, "Is this really worth a trip for me? Do you know how much I make in a minute now?"
Chen Ling became angry, "You think you’re such a big deal now, huh?"
That "huh" had a rising tone, and Yuan Bo sensed trouble.
Sure enough, Chen Ling slapped towards him; Yuan Bo, with his master-level skills, agilely dodged it. Chen Ling then stood up and continued chasing, intending to hit again.
"Daring to dodge? Come here! Tell me, out of 365 days a year, how many days are you home? Now I ask you to help, and you dare to complain!"
"I’m wrong, I’m wrong, please stop hitting."
"Get over here!"
...
Wu Wenhua lay back in his chair, watching the scene unfold without wonder. As a child, Yuan Bo often got into fights outside, and was frequently beaten by Chen Ling; thus, he was used to this by now. Yuan Bo had been from childhood been beaten to where he was fearless of everything except Chen Ling.
It could be said that the person who has hit Yuan Bo the most in the world was none other than Chen Ling.
"Now, Master Level Martial Artist, the representative of Hua Country’s Kung Fu, Kung Fu Hero Yuan Bo, is being unilaterally beaten and doesn’t dare to fight back."
Yuan Bo let Chen Ling smack him a few times, which finally allowed her to let off some steam.
By now, Yuan Bo had realized that the issue with Uncle Chen Ting was insignificant; Chen Ling merely wanted to use the opportunity to see him.
But since he had returned, the issue still needed to be resolved.
"Where’s Uncle, in the bookstore?" Yuan Bo asked.
Chen Ling nodded, "Yes, he should be in the bookstore now. Shall we go now?"
Yuan Bo wrapped his arm around Chen Ling and teased, "Then let’s go, son will take you to show off a bit."
Chen Ling elbowed Yuan Bo and glared, "Nonsense, we’re doing this for your uncle."
Wu Wenhua also stood up and came over, patting Yuan Bo, "How long will you stay this time?"
Yuan Bo replied, "I can’t stay for many days. I need to go back to school to prepare for exams."
Wu Wenhua nodded, "Let’s go then. I’ll come with you to the bookstore."
Yuan Bo was puzzled. Wu Wenhua and Chen Ling’s family didn’t get along too well, generally avoiding each other when possible. Why did he want to go meet them today?
Wu Wenhua headed to the door to change shoes, watching his father’s back; Yuan Bo had a realization. Wu Wenhua must also really miss him, just not showing it as directly as Chen Ling did, knowing that his son couldn’t stay long. He probably wanted to spend more time with him, to talk, which is why he suggested coming along.
...
Chen Ting’s bookstore was near the city center. The location was actually not bad, and there was a large flow of people. If it weren’t a bookstore and instead some other business, it might have been more profitable, but Chen Ting and his wife had grown accustomed to it over the years and didn’t feel like making changes.
Yuan Bo wore a mask, sunglasses, and a cap, and took a car with his parents to his uncle’s bookstore.
As they were about to arrive at the bookstore, Yuan Bo saw a large crowd gathered in front of his uncle’s shop through the window.
Frowning slightly, Yuan Bo asked the driver to pull over.
"Oh no, what happened?"
Chen Ling was anxious and dashed forward as soon as she got out of the car, with Yuan Bo quickly following.
"F*** your ancestors..."
"...Too much... Bullying people!"
People were crowded around three layers deep. Yuan Bo could vaguely hear his uncle’s voice and a woman crying inside.
"Excuse me, please let us through."
Yuan Bo helped make way in front of Chen Ling, skillfully squeezing through the crowd, and soon made it inside with her.
What caught his eye was a pile of books scattered all over the ground and stacked up at the door of the bookstore.
These books were almost all new, many of them still in their packaging, looking like they had been moved out of the store.
Uncle Chen Ting was red-faced, pointing and cursing at a few men while Auntie was squatting by the pile of books at the door, wiping her tears.
Confronting Chen Ting were three burly men, the leader wearing a thuggish expression, pointing at Chen Ting, "You want to curse me again?"
"I’ll kill you!" Chen Ting roared, ready to spring into action.
"Chen Ting!"
Chen Ling saw Chen Ting about to start fighting and shouted shrilly.
Afraid that his uncle might be at a disadvantage, Yuan Bo quickly stepped in, blocking Chen Ting, "Uncle, don’t be impulsive."
Chen Ting tried to break free but felt an incredible strength holding him back and he couldn’t get free. He then looked up at Yuan Bo and, due to Yuan Bo’s disguise, didn’t recognize him at first, "Yuan Bo?"
Yuan Bo nodded, "It’s me, don’t be impulsive, I’ll handle this."
Hearing this, Chen Ting gradually calmed down. If it were before, the furious Chen Ting definitely wouldn’t have listened, but now it was different; he knew how capable his nephew had become.
Chen Ling also came over, helping Auntie, who was sitting on the ground wiping her tears, "What happened?"
Auntie pointed at the three men opposite, "They came to buy books, wanting to buy out the entire bookstore. They bought the books and pulled out a big bag of coins to pay, then dumped all the books at the door."
Chen Ting turned and cursed, "You shouldn’t have sold to these bastards!"
Auntie felt wronged, "I initially refused, but they accused me of looking down on them, thinking they didn’t have money. They said that since we opened the store, how could we intentionally refuse to sell? There were three of them, and you weren’t here."
The leader, wearing a leather jacket, laughed, "I paid, didn’t I? Why are you crying?"
Before Chen Ting could respond, Yuan Bo pointed at the pile of books on the ground, "What’s the meaning of this?"
The man spat, "I’ve paid, these books are mine. I can do whatever I want with my property! Hurry up and count the cash. Don’t accuse me of not paying."
Yuan Bo turned to look at the bag of coins inside the store and nodded, "Wait a moment."
"Hurry up, my time is valuable. If it’s not enough, just tell me. I will call someone to bring a couple more bags. I’m not short of money!"
"Hahaha!"
The two men behind the leader burst out laughing, making Chen Ting’s face look even more displeased.
Yuan Bo nodded, took out his phone, and made a call.
"Yuan Bo here, I’m in Shudu. Can you send a few off-duty trainers over? I have a situation here that needs handling."
"It’s nothing big. I’ll send you the address, thank you."
Yuan Bo hung up the phone, somewhat amused and dumbfounded, recalling a phrase:
’The God of War returns, finds his family living in a hovel, and with one command, ten thousand warriors come charging...’
