Chapter 93: Repercussions of the Farce
Soon after Lin Xun left, the farce in front of Donglin School became even worse, and more onlookers were gathering. A teacher from Donglin School came out before the situation went out of control.
The teacher was a senior overmatch in Gang Spirit Realm with an awe-inspiring reputation; he said in public that Donglin School would give Fatty Diao and his fellows justice.
Fatty Diao hurried away with those old men and women, knowing that it was enough. Being insatiable would work against them.
Yang Qun and his foppish friends, with tied hands, were released and taken back to Donglin School.
The event was ended, however, much gossip about it spread throughout Donglin Town in a short time, and caused an uproar and much laughter.
Lian Fei, Yang Qun and their fellows, all turned out be a complete joke.
Of course, no one really cared about whether the gossip was true or not. That was what gossip was. Even if it was not true, onlookers just didn’t need to pay attention to it.
…
In the Golden Hall.
When Gu Yanping heard about the gossip, he burst into laughter after pondering for a little while and realizing what had happened immediately. “Lian Fei wants to make Lin Xun a scapegoat, but it’s a shame that he didn’t expect that Lin Xun would fight back so fiercely, which made himself be blamed instead.”
Gu Liang was surprised, “Lin Xun is the manipulator behind this? It is a bit too radical. Even if it seemed he won, he would be taken as a thorn in the flesh by the students of Donglin School and people behind them, which will bring him more harm than good.”
Gu Yanping praised, “Son, it’s very good that you can understand this. But if you were Lin Xun, what would you do to solve this crisis?”
Gu Liang immediately realized that his father was testing him. Thinking quickly, he replied, “If I were Lin, surely I would not fight with these foppish boys. At worst, I’d rather keep away from them for the time being, and then find them and finish them one by one”
Gu Yanping nodded, “Your plan seems a little conservative, but it’s an appropriate solution. However, you neglected one thing; these foppish boys are very arrogant. You can’t escape if you are targeted by them.”
Pausing for a second, he continued, “Radical as Lin Xun’s reaction was, it is actually the wisest choice to solve the problem once and for all. Lin Xun made it a big farce, which has been so well known that his enemies will have to endure silently in a short time even if they hate Lin so much. Otherwise, the gossip will be proved to be true, causing great damage to their reputation.”
“These powerful people in Dong Town highly cherish their reputation, though they have done all the bad things secretly.”
Gu Liang frowned, “What shall he do in the future? When the disturbance subsides and nobody gives attention to it, will these powerful people easily give up the revenge?”
After saying that, Gu Liang suddenly realized something, then he clapped his hands and excitingly shouted, “I got it! Lin Xun doesn’t intend to stay in Donglin Town any longer! Soon after the County Test, he will surely take the State Test. In this case, he is not afraid of anybody for today’s farce, as long as he leaves.”
Gu Yanping praised him with a smile, “Exactly, this is Lin Xun’s strategy. You can figure it out, which means you’ve grown up.”
Gu Liang blushed and shook his head, “Compared with Lin Xun, I am still immature in terms of wisdom and foresight.”
Gu Yanping signed with emotion, “Lin Xun is so young, but he has owned such wisdom and foresight. A man like him is …surely incomparable.”
Suddenly Gu Liang asked, “Father, if Lin Xun leaves, then it will be hard for our Golden Hall to get the spiritual weapons refined by that ‘mysterious spiritual tattooist’ in the future.”
Seeming to have thought it through long ago, Gu Yanping said with seriousness, “Son, the real businessmen shall not always depend on others. If you want to be a world-renowned commercial practitioner, you must have your own power and capital to keep a foothold!”
Shocked in the heart, Gu Liang took a deep breath and said, “I understand, father.”
Gu Yanping smiled, “Of course, you and Lin Xun are close in age, and now your relationship is not bad. You might as well offer him more help if he needs. As for friendship, we need to manage it. We should first learn how to give, instead of negatively receiving.”
Gu Liang nodded his head.
Now he really admired Lin Xun, eager to make good friends with people like him.
But Gu Liang also had his own ideas. He would not maintain relationship with Lin Xun just on the basis of interests, and he will, by his real strength and power, make Lin Xun really acknowledge him!
Gu Liang, a young boy with ambition as well as his own pride, was then 15 years old!
In Keystone Business.
Hearing the news from Wang Lin, Mu Wansu looked odd. She could not help giggling finally, which added a special flavor of beauty to her delicate face.
With tears nearly running down, the more she laughed, the harder she could stop. After a long time, she bit her red lips and said, “Lin Xun is really bad… A teenager intends to rape an old woman! How could he think that out!”
She suddenly paused and frowned, “He did it just because he has decided to leave Donglin Town already?”
Wang Lin replied with regret, “Yeah, once he leaves, it’s impossible for us to associate with the mysterious spiritual tattooist in the future.”
Wu Wansu became mind-absent. She should only applaud and cheer if Lin Xun left Donglin, hoping that little bastard would disappear quickly.
But when this hope really came true, Mu Wansu was hit by sadness in her heart unconsciously and the feeling was not good.
A little bastard who let her have suffered a set of losses planned to leave one day unexpectedly, which somehow made her feel sad. What on earth was this feeling about?
Mu Wansu frowned for a long time and nibbled her red lips, softly whispering, “Humph! Even you leave Donglin Town, things will not over between us. I will overmaster you one day, you little bastard!”
Finishing these words, she saw Wang Lin’s confused look and suddenly felt dispirited and clear-headed. She even felt bothered to pay attention to the mysterious spiritual tattooist. She waved her hands and said, “You can leave now.”
Wang Lin cupped his hands and walked away with doubts.
In the Clan of Wu.
Wu Chaoqun, the patriarch, looked at the note in his hand and took a deep breath, with his expressions changing slightly, “What an evil bastard! He has learned to stir up people’s anger and make unfounded countercharges!”
Wu Chaoqun felt a little lucky that Clan of Wu had endured these days and had not started to pick on Lin Xun. If they were involved in today’s affair, they would lose face.
“Patriarch, this bastard’s act has gone to extremes. It has completely offended many forces. This is undoubtedly good news for us,”
someone said.
“Wrong!”
With his eyes twinkling, Wu Chaoqun said coldly, “Tomorrow the County Test will begin. Do you think that he will stay in Donlin Town and wait for dead after passing the test? He dares to do such things unscrupulously just because he has made up his mind to leave.”
“I got it. So, we must not let this little bastard get away like this! Or, it will bring shame on our clan!”
“Yes, we were tolerant last days because we had planned to deal with him gradually, but if he left, it would be meaningless to do so?”
Everybody in the hall was upset.
Wu Chaoqun took a deep breath, stood up and said, “Don’t lose our patience. I’ll visit the president of Donglin School later. Since that little bastard is going to take the County Test, I’ll let his hope failed. He won’t pass it so easily.”
In Donglin School
Lian Fei and Yao Susu were standing on a long corridor whose end was the place where the president worked.
Lian Fei looked depressed and his heart convulsed when he remembered what had just happened in front of the school.
It was a brutal counterattack!
This farce directed by Lin Xun not only disgraced Lian Fei, but also damaged his reputation. No one would believe him even if he wanted to explain.
This was the horror of rumor.
Just like now, the teenager accused of intending to rape an old woman suddenly carried the nickname “Addict for Old Ladies” which caused a sensation in the whole school. It was extremely discreditable.
The only consolation was that there was no direct evidence to prove that what these young boys did was based on his instructions.
Unfortunately, teachers in the school had ascertained that Yang Qun and his fellows were instigated by Yao Susu, which led to what happened today indirectly!
Lian Fei couldn’t help looking at Yao Susu, and then saw her calm look. It seemed that she was worried nothing about the punishment that she would be subjected to.
Yao Susu consoled Lian Fei, “Take it easy! Lin Xun is too vicious and cunning. I will let him pay for what he has done if I have a chance!”
With a wry smile on his face, Lian Fei kept silence.
At this time, the door at the end of the corridor was pushed open and a dignified middle-aged man in a purple robe came out.
It was Yu Canglin, president of Donglin School.
Lian Fei felt stiff all over and the muscles of his face tensed. Yu Canglin, a famous overmatch in Sea Spirit Realm, was one of the few strong practitioners in Sea Spirit Realm in the Donglin Town.
When Lian Fei, together with Yao Susu, was called here to wait, he began speculating that as the farce had bothered the president, would the president punish him in person?
If so, the consequences would be too serious.
Therefore, seeing Yu Canglin appear at this moment, Lian Fei was anxious and fearful.
However, Yu Canglin, president of the school, who had always been known for his “serious and inflexible style”, was now waving his hands with a smile and saying, “Coming here Susu. Your father is waiting for you.”
Lian Fei widened his eyes in surprised and his mind was somewhat muddled.
Yao Susu seemed to have anticipated all this, smiling and nodding, and then dragged Lian Fei into the hall at the end of the corridor.
Yu Canglin kept smiling to them from beginning to end, and did not stop Yao Susu or Lian Fei, which made Lian Fei more shocked and finally realize a problem.
President Yu Canglin seemed to be acting like this all because of Yao Susu’s father.
So, who was Yao Susu’s father?
Lian Fei tried his best to think crazily in his mind. When he entered the hall, a name which was very influential in Donglin Town these days suddenly occurred to him.
Yao Tuohai!
