Faced with Luo Ziling’s deadly threat, the other dumbstruck offenders jumped into the pool one by one. In the blink of an eye, there was a group of big, pathetic guys standing in the pool.
The incident that just took place had attracted the attention of passersby. There were many students rubbernecking as they passed through.
Some of them took out their phones to take pictures or film videos of Luo Ziling throwing the burly men into the pool and forcing the others to get into the pool themselves. They then uploaded it onto their WeChat Moments.
“Let’s go. Don’t bother about them. It’s time to have dinner,” said Cao Jianhui. He had called his brother, Cao Jianguang, to handle today’s mess.
The last time this happened, Cao Jianguang had agreed to settle the conflict after being threatened by his younger brother. However, the case ended with nothing definite. Since the same conflict happened again today, Cao Jianhui strived to achieve the outcome his brother previously promised.
Cao Jianguang hurled abuse at his younger brother when he got the call and found out about the dispute. He threatened that this would be the last time he helped to clean up Cao Jianhui’s mess, and asked him to go to their parents instead if anything happened in the future.
Since his brother had agreed to intervene, Cao Jianhui had no worries anymore.
However, just as they were about to leave, the officers from the campus’ security department arrived, having received a report.
The security guards were surprised to see the burly students from the martial arts team and Physical Education department standing pathetically in the pool, not daring to come out.
“The weather is so hot. They jumped into the pool together to take a shower. This kind of uncivilized act should be exposed and action should be taken by the university,” said the sneaky Cao Jianhui, speaking up to complain about them first before the security guards asked.
“How can we call them students of Yenching University? I’m really embarrassed to have schoolmates like them. It’s crucial that we suggest to the university to emphasize on quality education.”
Li Fuming and Wu Longjiang could hardly hold back their laughter when they heard Cao Jianhui’s words. They almost suffered internal injuries from trying not to laugh.
“We’re not here to take a shower. He threw us in here!” bellowed a distraught Jin Qicai who nearly wanted to strangle himself. “They not only beat us up, but also threw us into the pool. The university must punish them.”
Cao Jianhui chuckled. He addressed the strong man who was the head of the security guards, “Can you believe that? There are more than a dozen people in their group and they are all tough, but we are only four weak students. It’s quite easy for them to knock us down. But, is it possible for us to do that to them?”
The burly guard had been there during their previous encounter with Jin Qicai’s group. Knowing that he was the head of the security team, Cao Jianhui only talked to him.
The head security guard’s gaze switched between the muscleheads who were standing pitifully in the pool and Luo Ziling’s friends. He was at a loss. What Jin Qicai said should be true, but it was difficult to believe.
As members of the campus security team, they knew the character of the people standing in the pool, not to mention their talent as well. To knock them down onto the ground was no easy task. As such, they totally did not believe that the four boys could do this.
Yet, it was clear that these hooligans who were used to being domineering on campus had been bullied.
There must be a skilled person among the freshmen. Otherwise, the previous incident would not have happened.
It was hard to imagine how strong that person was, seeing as only a few people had managed to defeat a dozen burly guys.
After thinking for a bit, Luo Ziling walked towards the pool and lifted one of the students up. In front of the security guards, he asked, “Did you jump into the pool on your own or did we push you?”
“I…I jumped into the pool myself,” replied the student. Though he weighed at least 170 pounds, Luo Ziling had easily lifted him. His heartbeat suddenly increased as he feared being thrown into the pool or being beaten up again.
Satisfied, Luo Ziling dropped the student back into the pool and called upon another. After he came over, trembling, Luo Ziling picked him up too and repeated the same question.
This student too ‘honestly’ admitted that Luo Ziling and his friends had not pushed him into the pool, but that he had jumped in himself.
After all, that was the truth. They had indeed jumped into the pool themselves, Luo Ziling didn’t kick them in.
They were merely leaving out the reason they jumped in—because Luo Ziling had intimidated them. They were sure that he would beat them to a pulp if they did not jump in.
Luo Ziling’s actions caused laughter among some students, but most of them were stunned. The security guards were particularly shocked.
While he easily lifted the burly guys from the pool with only one hand, Luo Ziling had an indifferent expression on his face. They could not imagine how strong he was.
All of the guards now believed that Luo Ziling himself had knocked the students from the martial arts team and Physical Education department into the pool. Knowing this, they feared him and dared not make trouble.
“Did you guys really jump into the pool yourselves?” asked the head security guard, holding back a laugh. “Get out then, if you jumped in yourselves. You may leave as there is no fight.”
It was better to report this incident to the management before deciding anything, and leave the case to them. Those involved would not be able to run away anyway, since they were all students of the university.
The background of these people must be complicated. It was better to let them take care of this on their own.
He was just a security guard who only received thousands of dollars a month and could not afford to offend them.
Hearing the head security guard’s words, the students in the pool dared not say anything.
“Let’s go for dinner,” said Cao Jianhui.
He felt energized, all the exhaustion from this morning’s military training had disappeared. He now felt a sense of ecstasy like never before.
He patted his chest and spoke to Luo Ziling, “My treat. Just order whatever you want. Don’t worry about making me poor.”
He ignored the martial arts team students, the crowd, and even the security guards who were there to settle things as he talked. Calling for Li Fuming and Wu Longjiang, he left with his arm around Luo Ziling’s shoulder.
A gossiper was uploading what had happened on the university’s forum. He detailed how the dumb ass*s from the martial arts team had finally met their match. They had been badly beaten up and thrown into the pool. Even the security guards dared not do anything. It was so satisfying!
He said that it was a freshman who had knocked down this group of dumb ass*s. He also uploaded the photo of Luo Ziling lifting someone from the pool in midair, but had not captured Luo Ziling’s face clearly.
A lot of people shared the post. Many were surprised, but more were unconvinced.
After the students from the martial arts team got out of the pool, several security guards rushed to them to get more information. However, they did not want to communicate with the guards further and instead quickly fled.
“Heh. Since you don’t want us to get involved, take care of it by yourselves.”
The leader of the security team was pleased to be off the hook. He even decided not to report the situation to the management.
Luo Ziling left for dinner while being hugged by Cao Jianhui, unaware that he had become the talk of the forums again. He did not even know that he had become the most famous figure among the freshmen.
Of course, as his reputation increased, both good and bad things were sure to follow.
