Chapter 573: Things are getting serious

In the car!

Elder Chen was emotionally unstable. He was extremely stunned by Little Boss’s words. If it was someone else who said that to him, he would definitely not believe it. However, it was Little Boss who said it.

Why would he not believe his words?

Although Little Boss was selling scallion pancakes and didn’t really read anyone’s fortunes anymore, everyone in Cloud Street knew how powerful Lin Fan was at reading fortunes. If he said that something bad was going to happen, it was definitely going to happen.

“Little Boss, will my son be okay?” Elder Chen asked anxiously. He was pinning his hopes on Little Boss.

“He is temporarily okay,” Lin Fan said.

He could only have said that. He didn’t expect Elder Chen’s fortune to turn out that way. However, something was wrong. In the past, he had helped everyone to look at their fortunes and nothing seemed bad. Why did this happen all of a sudden?

He couldn’t understand it but at least Elder Chen’s son was still okay. However, it was difficult to say if something bad was going to happen later.

Elder Liang asked, “Elder Chen, does your son have a handphone? Call him now.”

Elder Chen replied, “He doesn’t have a phone. I didn’t give it to him as I was afraid of him playing with it.”

Elder Liang said, “Quickly call his teacher in charge and find out more.”

Elder Liang was indeed a wise man. Lin Fan didn’t even think of that at all. Suddenly, Elder Chen reacted and quickly called the teacher in charge. However, he couldn’t get through.

“What am I going to do? I can’t get through. Did it happen already?” Elder Chen started to think about all the bad things that could happen. His face was as white as paper. He had been working extremely hard since he left his hometown and he was finally able to have a stable life in Shanghai for his son to be here with him. He didn’t expect this to happen.

Lin Fan knew Elder Chen was extremely anxious. “Elder Chen, don’t be anxious. It hasn’t happened yet. If you’re like that now, what are you going to do when you reach there?”

Elder Chen held onto Lin Fan’s hand tightly. “Little Boss, you have to save my son!”

“Yes, I am here, don’t worry,” Lin Fan nodded. Then, he moved his fingers to find out why did this happen. He didn’t dare to confirm that he read the fortune of everyone at Cloud Street but he had read Elder Chen’s fortune before and this wasn’t supposed to happen.

Although it could be said that his fortune-telling skills were at its best, this type of sudden change was unpredictable.

…

At Jin Yang Secondary School.

At a certain class’ physical education lesson.

Behind the toilet at the stadium.

Chen Jun’s son, Chen Liang, was lying on the floor.

A teenager stomped on Chen Liang’s head. “You didn’t listen to what I said at all. Where is the money?!”

He was a youngster but he sounded fearsome. It was as if he didn’t regard Chen Liang as a human at all.

The other students gathered around and smiled as they recorded it on camera.

“I don’t have any money.” Chen Liang’s voice was weak and he looked frightened.

“F*ck, you have no money? Why don’t you steal some for me? You’re a villager and your dad sells fruits. Do you dare to defy me? I asked you to pass the exam paper to me and you rejected me. Do you want to die?” The teenager stepped on Chen Liang’s face and scolded.

Chen Liang didn’t say anything. He just endured his insults.

“Brother Yang, will this fella tell the teacher?”

Li Yang looked at Chen Liang disdainfully. “Do you think he dares to tell the teacher? If he were to tell the teacher anything, I will make sure he learns his lesson.”

Then, Li Yang pulled Chen Liang up and grabbed him by the neck against the wall. His hand moved and he asked, “Do you know what this means?”

Chen Liang was afraid and he tried to hide, “I…”

*slap*

Li Yang immediately slapped him. Then, he grabbed Chen Liang’s hair and pulled him. His entire body flew backward.

“That’s more like it. If I don’t see the money tomorrow, I’ll make you eat sh*t. Do you believe me?” Li Yang said fearsomely.

One of the other students immediately handed a cigarette over, “Brother Yang, this fella deserves to be beaten up.”

Li Yang smoked the cigarette and waved his hand, “Continue whacking him.”

The other students smiled and punched Chen Liang’s face repeatedly.

One of the students pulled down Chen Liang’s pants and took pictures with his phone.

“Stop it!” Chen Liang tried to shrug them off but he was getting beaten up.

Li Yang looked at Chen Liang, “If I don’t see the money tomorrow, your picture will appear in the phones of every student. I want to see where you can hide your face at.”

Chen Liang’s eyes were red. He wasn’t going to retaliate. He had a low self-esteem and he didn’t dare to retaliate. He didn’t even dare to tell the teachers.

Even if he told the teachers about it, it would have invited more trouble.

Ding ding!

School had ended.

The physical education class had ended.

Li Yang threw the cigarette away and looked at Chen Liang sternly, “Remember, if you dare to tell the teachers, you’re dead. I will kill you. Let’s go.”

The others left together with him.

Chen Liang wiped the tears from his eyes and wore his pants. He looked average and had a low self-esteem. However, he knew that it was difficult to get him to study in Shanghai. Hence, he didn’t want to disappoint his dad.

However, his nightmare began when he came here.

Li Yang was the tyrant in school and there were a group of people that always followed him. If he didn’t like someone, he would beat him/her up. Nobody dared to tell the teachers about it yet. Even if they did, it would have been useless. Although he would be scolded by the teachers, they would be in deeper trouble after that.

Every time his dad visited him, he didn’t dare to tell him about it. He could only hide it from his dad.

…

It was time for class.

Li Yang and the others sat at the back of the class. They were reading novels and they didn’t care about what the teacher was talking about. Similarly, the teachers didn’t care about them too.

If they didn’t offend the teacher, the teacher wouldn’t make things difficult for them too.

It was a language class and the teacher frowned, “Where did Chen Liang go?”

The students in the class looked at each other. They knew that Chen Liang got beaten up by Li Yang and the others but they didn’t dare to tell the teacher about it.

“I don’t know.”

“I saw him before class.”

“I don’t know too.”

The teacher was a little suspicious. Chen Liang had decent results and was hardworking. However, he had a low self-esteem and was a quiet boy. However, he was always able to complete the teachers’ tasks perfectly.

“Li Yang, do you know where Chen Liang went?” The teacher looked at Li Yang and asked. Those people were the bad worms of the school. However, their families were quite influential and they entered the school via other means. They didn’t even put in any effort in studying and were difficult to handle.

Li Yang shook his head, “I don’t know, I haven’t seen him. Maybe he skipped class.”

The teacher said sternly, “Even if you were to skip class, people wouldn’t skip class too.”

Li Yang was shameless and he didn’t bother about it at all.

“AHH!”

Suddenly, people started shouting outside.

“Someone is going to commit suicide.”

“Who is that? Why is he on the roof?”

When they heard the screams, the students looked out the window.

The teacher quickly ran outside and when he saw the teenager sitting there, his face changed. “Chen Liang, what are you doing?”
