Chapter 80: Chapter 55 [Go Big?]_2

Whips and sticks, according to archaeological findings, existed much earlier than education...

A world that respects individual strength above all and lacks powerful forces to punish misconduct—such a world can’t possibly be wonderful!

·

For lunch, Chen Yan ordered a pizza. Then he took out a phone and handed it to Gu Qingyi—he had bought the phone on the way while buying plaques and candles.

There was also a SIM card registered under his name.

He connected the phone to the home Wi-Fi and taught Gu Qingyi how to use the food delivery app.

The payment method on the delivery app was linked to Chen Yan’s own payment account, and he disabled the face recognition feature, sharing the password with Gu Qingyi...

Chen Yan was confident that even if he left home for the whole day occasionally, his Consort Mother wouldn’t go hungry and have to eat instant noodles.

To be honest, Chen Yan used to like instant noodles, but after surviving on instant noodles during that seven-day ordeal, he now finds them to be the most evil food in the world!

"I need to go out this afternoon and might not be back for dinner. If you get hungry, just order food delivery yourself," Chen Yan instructed Gu Qingyi and even registered a Weixin account on the phone, using the number from the new SIM card he had bought.

"You can use this to talk to me anytime. I’m the only friend in your contact list. If you need anything, you can send me a message, type it by hand, or press and hold to send a voice message... And here you can make voice calls..."

Gu Qingyi wasn’t stupid. Anyone who could reach the Celestial Human Realm before the age of twenty was definitely smarter than most people in this world.

In no time, she mastered everything Chen Yan had taught her.

Then, Chen Yan left the house.

He planned to go to the Extreme Internet Cafe in University City to see the lady boss today.

After using such a significant method against Uncle Qing, enough time had passed for that guy to feel threatened.

Today, Chen Yan intended to find the lady boss and take her to meet Luo Qing again.

This time, Chen Yan planned to handle it personally... though he had hesitated before.

But now... having a Celestial Human Realm Consort Mother at home...

What’s there to be afraid of!

What Chen Yan didn’t know was that just as he stepped out, Gu Qingyi called Gui Geng over to give some instructions and then left the house as well.

Chen Yan called for a ride-hailing car and got off near the Extreme Internet Cafe in University City. Before the car even stopped, he saw a business car already parked at the cafe entrance across the street.

Luo Qing, wearing a baseball cap, got out of the car. The bruises on his face hadn’t fully faded, and there seemed to be some dirty scratches?

To Chen Yan’s surprise, Luo Qing then stood respectfully by the roadside and warmly welcomed four people out of the business car.

The flower-like lady boss and her three menacing brothers!

Chen Yan was stunned. After contemplating for a moment, he didn’t get out of the car immediately. Instead, he tipped the driver ten extra bucks and asked the driver to stay parked by the roadside.

Across the street, Luo Qing was very courteous, even a bit respectful and ingratiating, said a few words to the lady boss and her brothers with a smile, then nodded and bowed before getting back into his car and leaving quickly.

Chen Yan furrowed his eyebrows, then opened the door and stepped out of the car.

·

The lady boss was unlocking the internet cafe’s door when Chen Yan called out from behind, "Lady boss, you’re all back?"

She looked back to see Chen Yan walking over with a smile. The lady boss also smiled lightly, "Xiaoyan! What brings you here?"

"I thought your issue might not be resolved yet, so I came to see if I could help out."

The lady boss was clearly in a much better mood than a few days ago. There was an unmistakable joy of relief in her eyes.

"Xiaoyan, the matter is already resolved." Saying this, she opened the door, "Come in, have a drink."

"Sure," Chen Yan nodded quietly, curious about how the situation was resolved.

The lady boss’s three brothers casually greeted Chen Yan before heading upstairs—Chen Yan wasn’t too enthusiastic about them either.

Helping the lady boss was because of the bond from four years of university.

The special treatment of free internet access, countless nights of free hot noodles—this woman saw him as a surrogate for her late younger brother.

Chen Yan grew up without parents, raised by his grandmother.

One can imagine that a child without parents would have faced disdain and bullying from peers during childhood and school years, always at the bottom of the social hierarchy—this heartache is something those who haven’t experienced wouldn’t understand.

Thus, Chen Yan’s character truly cherished any goodwill someone showed him.

But... this gratitude only extended to the lady boss.

As for her three brothers, forget it.

While they weren’t major villains...

They frequently committed small offenses—though not exactly good people either.

Chen Yan had no fondness for such people.

Who would like three aimless and troublesome hooligans?

·

Sitting inside the internet cafe, the lady boss handed Chen Yan a can of cola. Chen Yan accepted it openly, took a sip, and then heard the lady boss begin to recount.

She received a call from Luo Qing early in the morning. His attitude was very amiable, expressing a willingness to reconcile and even to withdraw the case. Signing an agreement of forgiveness was also a non-issue.

The two sides then arranged to meet at the police station.

Luo Qing, proactively being the complainant, indicated he wanted to withdraw the case and unconditionally forgive, even signing a letter of forgiveness.

The three brothers’ issue didn’t reach the criminal line, and considering they had been detained since the incident, the police decided to close the case and release them.

The lady boss had even offered to pay for medical expenses, which Luo Qing declined.

He even offered to drive the siblings home enthusiastically.

Halfway, the lady boss felt like she was dreaming, even having bizarre thoughts:

This Luo Qing guy, suddenly letting her brothers off, refusing compensation, and being so warm?

Could he have ulterior motives towards me? Was he plotting something?

On the trip, the lady boss remained vigilant and kept conversations with Luo Qing to a minimum.

Chen Yan thought for a moment, guessing it might be because Luo Qing, after being intimidated by him, started reflecting, traced his own troubles recently, and thus believed the three brothers were the cause, deciding to quietly end the matter?

That could be possible, though it was unexpected Luo Qing pinpointed the brothers so accurately, even beyond Chen Yan’s predictions.

Nonetheless, it saved Chen Yan some effort without having to step in.

Having gotten the answers he wanted, Chen Yan got up to leave. The lady boss cheerfully saw him to the door.

Chen Yan didn’t bother advising her to keep a closer watch on her brothers to avoid trouble—he wasn’t in a position to offer such patronizing advice at twenty-two while her brothers were older than him.

Settling this matter, Chen Yan intended to head home earlier—wondering if Young Lady Gu already ordered takeout.

But before he could call for a ride, he received another call.

"Teacher Xiao Chen," President Fang’s deep voice came through the phone, "I have something to discuss with you if it’s convenient."

"Please go ahead, President Fang." Given the New Year’s gift and gourmet dinner last night, Chen Yan replied politely.

"Hmm, on that house repair project from before, I think the previous repairs weren’t thorough enough, and I want to renovate it entirely!"

Huh?

Chen Yan was stunned.
