Chapter 019: Little Ling is the Most Troublesome! The Perfect Plan

Song Kai sat at his desk, having already finished reading through the entire set of physics textbooks and fully understood them. Now, he picked up a mathematics book and started to read. Apart from physics and mathematics, the other subjects were purely memorization, and memorizing was precisely what Song Kai excelled at.

Zhou Ran glanced sideways, watching Song Kai flip through the math textbook, unable to hide her disdain as she curled her lip. If learning math were really that easy, who would willingly toil away for twelve years? What an idiot! Zhou Ran ignored him, and Song Kai happily enjoyed the peace.

Two class periods flew by quickly. During the big break, Class Three students were playing and laughing when suddenly the classroom door was kicked open. Seven or eight students, all looking quite young, walked in.

The students in Class Three were puzzled.

The leader scanned the room with sharp eyes and then led his group toward Zhou Ran. Song Kai frowned slightly.

At the back of the classroom, Chen Haijun wore a look of smug satisfaction and excitement. Yan Tao, beside him, whispered, “Jun-ge, did you bring these guys here to deal with Song Kai?”

“Heh, what, you don’t think they’re up to it?” Chen Haijun was very pleased with himself.

Yan Tao shook his head, whispering, “Jun-ge, even Zhang Meng and his crew weren’t a match for Song Kai. These kids, who barely look old enough for high school, are even less likely to succeed. Judging by their looks, they’re probably still in junior high.”

Chen Haijun snickered coldly. “They’re students from the neighboring technical school. The one in front is the infamous Blood Wolf, Chen Bao. Their reputation comes from their age—they’re under sixteen. Fights, assaults, stabbing, even rape—Chen Bao’s done it all! But thanks to juvenile protection laws, nothing happens to them. Heh, this time, let’s see what Song Kai does. If he fights back and injures Chen Bao, it’ll count as beating a minor and fighting with outsiders—he’ll definitely be expelled. If he doesn’t fight back, Chen Bao can cripple him, and he’ll be bedridden for at least two months!”

Yan Tao, hearing this, gave Chen Haijun a big thumbs-up. “Jun-ge, you’re brilliant!”

“Of course! And Chen Bao’s father is the secretary to our city mayor. Plus, I’ve already tipped off the homeroom teacher. The moment Song Kai fights back, I guarantee he’ll be ruined!” Chen Haijun clenched his fists, eagerly awaiting the drama to unfold.

Chen Bao and his group walked straight to Zhou Ran’s desk. Chen Bao reached out and grabbed Zhou Ran’s hair. “So you’re Zhou Ran, that little tramp?”

Zhou Ran was momentarily stunned, then picked up her textbook and slapped it across Chen Bao’s face.

With a loud smack, Chen Bao was left dazed.

“Where did this bastard come from? Get lost! Who the hell do you think you are?” Zhou Ran shouted angrily.

Furious, Chen Bao drew a steel rod with short spikes and pointed it at Zhou Ran. “You bitch! Last time, you said you’d hook up with me, scammed me out of three hundred yuan, then stood me up. Now you dare hit me? Guys, strip her clothes off!”

“Got it!”

The boys all grinned wickedly and moved in. They were young, and had done this sort of thing many times—the teachers didn’t dare interfere, the police didn’t care, and the victims could only accept humiliation.

This time, stripping this beautiful girl’s clothes was a treat for them.

Terrified, Zhou Ran darted toward Song Kai.

Of course, Chen Bao’s real target was Song Kai.

Song Kai pulled Zhou Ran aside and kicked one of the young thugs away.

“So you’re the one stealing my girl?” Chen Bao pointed at Song Kai. He’d just received twenty thousand yuan from Chen Haijun yesterday; his target was Song Kai.

Song Kai frowned, realizing something was off. He asked Chen Bao, “You must have the wrong person. Which school are you from?”

“Damn! You dare question me, Lord Chen? Beat him up!” Chen Bao shouted, raising his rod and swinging it down at Song Kai’s head. The rod, studded with short spikes, wouldn’t kill but would slash open deep wounds—utterly vicious.

Seeing Chen Bao’s arrogance, Song Kai kicked over the desk in front of him.

The desk crashed into Chen Bao’s leg, knocking him down.

Zhou Ran screamed, and the students of Class Three ran out—some looking for the homeroom teacher, some calling security, others dialing the police.

Chen Haijun’s cheeks trembled with excitement, muttering, “That’s right, keep escalating! The bigger this gets, the less anyone can save you!”

Song Kai pushed Zhou Ran aside.

Another kid rushed up with a rod.

These little punks didn’t hold back, and even Song Kai had to be careful.

Song Kai kicked the boy in the chest, sending him crashing into a desk and unable to get up. Then, Song Kai swung a chair and knocked down a third kid.

“Damn you!” Chen Bao jumped up, convinced he’d only be disciplining a regular student, but Song Kai was tougher than he expected. His anger flared.

He’d always been the one beating others, never beaten like this.

Chen Bao swung his spiked rod at Song Kai’s head.

If it hit, it could be fatal.

Song Kai dodged quickly, then picked up a desk and smashed it onto Chen Bao’s head with a loud bang.

Chen Bao staggered to the floor, thick blood streaming from his head. The remaining kids were finally scared; they trembled, staring at Song Kai, not daring to approach.

Song Kai clenched his fist, walked over to Chen Bao, and grabbed his neck. “Who sent you? Tell me.”

Chen Bao, dazed but defiant, snarled, “You… you dare hit me? You’re finished! I’m a minor. If I hit you, nothing happens; if you hit me, you’re screwed. Just wait!”

Chen Haijun was absolutely delighted. The chaos was even bigger than he’d hoped! Not only would Song Kai be expelled, he might even end up in jail. Ha ha!

“Song Kai! You’ve gone too far!” Bald Ma Bo stormed in furiously.

Ma Bo had always wanted to get rid of Song Kai, the worst student, and Chen Haijun had already tipped him off. He knew the Chen family’s background well.

Zhou Ran stepped forward and said, “Hey, why don’t you ask what started all this before blaming people? These punks came in to bully me—that’s why the fight broke out!”

Ma Bo turned to Zhou Ran. “Zhou Ran, be quiet. Things have gotten out of hand, the police are on their way. If you keep talking, you might not even be allowed to take the college entrance exam.”

Zhou Ran was stunned.

Song Kai stood up, looked at Ma Bo, then at Chen Bao on the floor. He realized the situation was more complicated than he’d thought.

“Who’s behind this? Was it Grandpa Xu Ling targeting me? Or that bastard Zhang Gang’s people?” Song Kai frowned. He didn’t think of Chen Haijun, as he believed their only conflict was over seating, with little real enmity.

Soon, school leaders arrived, and the sound of police cars filled the air.

Several officers entered. The school security blocked reporters from coming in, and the school leaders waited for the police to handle matters.

Ma Bo stood at the front of the classroom, acting the part of a righteous teacher, painfully declaring, “It’s my fault. As this class’s homeroom teacher, I failed to correct every student’s mistake in time. This time, Song Kai fought with students from outside the school and seriously injured someone. I am responsible. Though it pains me and I’m reluctant, a mistake is a mistake. Take Song Kai away—this student... ah, I can’t educate him anymore. I’ll leave it to you officers. I hope you punish him severely; it’ll be good for him.” As he spoke, Ma Bo feigned wiping away tears.

Song Kai clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. He suddenly realized how hateful Ma Bo, that bald man, truly was!

Meanwhile, Zhou Ran was calling her father. “Dad! Song Kai is your nephew, and he’s about to be expelled. Aren’t you going to help?”

The man on the other end sighed. “Ran, stay out of this. I can’t intervene. You know your mother hates Song Kai’s family. If she finds out I tried to pull strings for him, I’ll be kneeling on the remote every day when I get home. Don’t ask, Ran. That useless boy, Song Kai, being expelled is just as well—he couldn’t get into college anyway.”

Zhou Ran angrily hung up and slammed her phone, then rushed over to the school leaders and police, quickly explaining what happened.

“Zhou Ran, haven’t you figured it out yet? It’s not about who’s right or wrong—it’s that Song Kai seriously injured someone. He broke the law, you know!” Ma Bo blocked Zhou Ran, wearing a look of sorrow and sighing.

Zhou Ran stomped her foot in anger.

Chen Haijun chuckled; his plan was flawless.

“Take him to the station first, and check how serious the injuries are. If it’s bad, call an ambulance,” a middle-aged officer said.

“Sorry, sorry for being late… Huh, Song Kai?” At the door to Class Three, a tall woman in police uniform walked in…
