Chen Zhian liked Huo Shui. He was Huo Shui's number one pursuer. He had money and influence; he had the capital to pursue Huo Shui and would not feel inferior in front of pretty girls. But when he heard that Ye Tianyi from Class Ten had actually dared to tease Huo Shui again and again, making Huo Shui angry, he was furious on one hand, and on the other, it was a great opportunity to show himself off to Huo Shui! As long as he taught this Ye Tianyi a lesson, he could win Huo Shui's favor—at least, that was what he believed.
"Where is Ye Tianyi? Get your ass out here!"
Chen Zhian stood at the door and shouted inside. Everyone's eyes turned toward Ye Tianyi in the back. Following their gazes, he naturally spotted Ye Tianyi. The corner of his mouth curled up slightly as he smugly smoothed his bangs, then walked down the corridor toward the back door.
Ye Tianyi was dumbfounded. Who the hell was this guy? He wasn't in memory. What did he want? Ye Tianyi had wanted to warn him, but there was no time.
Chen Zhian pushed open the back door.
Thud—
A bucket toppled directly onto Chen Zhian's head, and chalk dust painted his entire body in a riot of colors.
Everyone: "..."
Chen Zhian let out a scream. The sudden attack and darkness threw him into disarray. His hands instinctively reached for the door, but the opening door gave him nothing to hold onto. With a "thud," he slipped to the ground. The floor had been smeared with oil, and with its slight incline and the momentum of his fall, he screamed as he slid backward all the way to the wall at the end.
Bang—
The next instant, his feet slammed into the wall. He thought that was the end, but... a section of the side wall at the very back, roughly a meter wide and long, was kicked through by his legs. Every brick in that small area collapsed outward, and he himself slid out and fell onto the lawn on the first floor.
Everyone: "..."
That was right—the wall had also been tampered with by Ye Tianyi. It was only a one-meter section, not enough to ruin anything or compromise the whole wall. This was the second floor, not very high, and a martial artist would not suffer much injury from the whole ordeal, though the same could not be said for their spirit.
But Ye Tianyi was furious right now!
I painstakingly set up a whole plan to mess with Huo Shui, and this bastard used it first? Fuck your mother! And you could clearly have entered through the front door, so why did you have to come through the back door? Damn it!
"Holy crap! Brother Ye, I get it!"
At that moment, Li Bang said in shock.
Huh?
Ye Tianyi looked at him in confusion, and everyone else looked toward Li Bang as well.
"Brother Ye, you calculated long ago that someone would come looking for trouble with you, then prepared all this in advance just to prank him, right?"
Li Bang looked at Ye Tianyi with worship written all over his face.
Everyone suddenly understood.
"Holy crap! Impressive! This Ye Tianyi really has something. I thought this was meant for Huo Shui."
"Gotta say, even though I really hate him, I genuinely admire him! That guy could clearly have entered through the front door, but he chose the back door instead. He could calculate even that? Holy crap!"
"So handsome, so smart... I really want to have a break-up-after-sleeping-together romance with him, hee hee..."
"..."
Everyone said in shock.
Ye Tianyi: ???
Then Ye Tianyi gave a dry cough and said softly, "Yes, of course I calculated it beforehand. I know you all thought I was going to deal with Huo Shui, since she's the only one in the class who wasn't here. But although Huo Shui and I don't get along, we're still classmates. Besides, she's quite pretty too. How could I bear to do something like that to her? So, all this was prepared for this person."
"Brother Ye even calculated that this guy would arrive before Huo Shui. So strong!"
Li Bang said worshipfully.
Ye Tianyi rubbed the tip of his nose.
At that moment, Huo Shui and Shi Jiayi entered through the back door together, then saw the mess in the rear.
"What happened? Did you do this?"
Shi Jiayi glanced at Huo Shui.
Huo Shui innocently said, "I was in the office with Teacher Shi the whole time."
"Teacher Shi, someone came looking for trouble with Brother Ye, and then Brother Ye dealt with him."
Li Bang hurriedly explained.
At that moment, Chen Zhian, dirty and bedraggled, ran over furiously.
"Ye Tianyi, you won't end well..."
Before he could finish, he saw Shi Jiayi.
This was bad. He had come specifically to cause trouble for Ye Tianyi. He had already shouted, "Ye Tianyi, get out here," making his intentions obvious. And now Teacher Shi was here, as was Huo Shui... He couldn't say it aloud.
Chen Zhian swallowed.
"Ye Tianyi, you won't end well... won't end... I won't believe it if you don't get good grades!"
Ye Tianyi: ???
Everyone: ???
"Chen Zhian? What are you doing here? I heard you came looking for trouble with someone from my Class Ten?"
Shi Jiayi swept her gaze over him.
Shi Jiayi knew Chen Zhian. He was considered talented, but he was far too ostentatious and was also a Profligate Scion. For some inexplicable reason, she instead liked scum like Ye Tianyi more. She did not understand why—could it be because Ye Tianyi was handsome? Mm... very possible.
Shi Jiayi was famous for protecting her students. He did not want to provoke her.
"No... Teacher Shi, I merely came to congratulate Ye Tianyi in advance on entering the Intermediate Class, that's all, that's all."
Chen Zhian forced a stiff smile.
"I don't even know the rankings yet, but you do?"
Shi Jiayi asked with a curl of her lips.
"Just guessing, just guessing."
"Then this state you're in..."
"I came to offer my congratulations, but I didn't expect chalk dust to fall onto me."
Chen Zhian explained.
"Nonsense, you clearly told Brother Ye to get—"
Before Li Bang could finish, Shi Jiayi raised a hand, and he stopped. Then she looked at Chen Zhian and said, "Did you crash into that wall?"
Chen Zhian nodded.
"Then pay for it."
"I..."
Chen Zhian was so furious he could have exploded. How much force could he possibly have to knock down a wall? If he said he had come looking for trouble, then it would still be his fault! He could only swallow his broken teeth with blood and grit.
"I'll pay. I'll pay."
Chen Zhian gritted his teeth.
The happiest thing about Class Ten was that Shi Jiayi was particularly overprotective.
"Mm. I'll collect it from your Instructor later. Go back."
Chen Zhian shot Ye Tianyi a furious glare, then slunk away in disgrace.
Ye Tianyi let out a long breath. Luckily, luckily a dark-faced fool had come. Huo Shui and Shi Jiayi had arrived together; if this guy had not come, Shi Jiayi might have been the one to step into the trap.
Still, he really had to thank Shi Jiayi. He did not believe Shi Jiayi had failed to see what was going on.
As Huo Shui passed Ye Tianyi, she gave him a strange look. After reaching her seat, she tentatively pressed down on her chair a few times. Only after confirming it had not been tampered with did she sit down.
Strange. It really felt like Ye Tianyi had been planning to deal with her.
Ye Tianyi clicked his tongue inwardly. Was this woman's sixth sense really that powerful?
"Class!"
Shi Jiayi could not be bothered to say more and walked directly to the podium.
Just then, Li Boren came in from outside. He had come specifically to check on Ye Tianyi, since Ye Tianyi was rather special, and then he saw the scene in the back!
"Teacher Shi, what is going on here?!"
Li Boren pointed toward the back and demanded angrily.
"I did it!"
At that moment, Li Bang stood up and declared righteously.
Ye Tianyi: "..."
What a good brother!
"You! You, you, you!!"
Li Boren pointed at Li Bang furiously.
"Twenty thousand fine!"
Li Boren roared.
Li Bang immediately drooped his head.
"Got it, Grandpa."
Ye Tianyi: ???
Everyone: ???
