Super Soldier in the City-Chapter 2220 - 2284: Vice Dean
"What are you doing? Don’t you know the sports meet is about to start? Hurry up and get to the stadium; changing clothes takes you so long. I told you to change at the stadium, but you didn’t listen, worried someone would see you. Who’s going to look at you!" A rather unpleasant voice suddenly came through, and the crowd parted as a short man walked in. He appeared short because he walked with his hands behind his back, hunched over, seemingly only about 160 cm tall. If he straightened up, he’d probably be around 170 cm, still not tall. The center of his forehead was oily and shiny, surrounded by sparse hair kept quite long and slicked back on his scalp.
The man walked in and saw the scene before him, his eyes widened, and he pointed at Chu Xiaoyao and shouted, "Chu Xiaoyao, what are you doing? Hurry up and get to the stadium!"
Chu Xiaoyao glanced at him, said nothing, and then the man saw Li Xiang lying on the ground in pain, trembling, his expression changed again. He quickly walked over, grabbed Li Xiang, and asked, "Li Xiang, what’s wrong with you? Who hit you?"
"Vice Dean, he hit him!" Someone nearby summoned the courage to shout. The girl also liked Li Xiang, liked his wealth, but unfortunately, he didn’t reciprocate. Today, she saw Li Xiang teaming up with a man in sunglasses to snatch Chu Xiaoyao, and she was instantly displeased, so she spoke out.
"Alright, call the police. Daring to hit someone at school, you’ve really been spoiled!" The old man immediately shouted.
This guy is a vice dean, specifically the Vice Dean of Chu Xiaoyao and Su Lio’s department. His surname is Ma, named Ma Bayong. He used to be an overseas returnee but due to some mistakes, he’s likely to remain a vice dean for life.
Seeing Li Yifei was unresponsive, still staring at Chu Xiaoyao, Ma Bayong immediately became displeased and stepped forward to push Li Yifei.
"Who are you?" Li Yifei didn’t move an inch, letting the other party push him while coldly saying. He was a head taller than the other person, and at close range, had an air of superiority, appearing quite disdainful.
Ma Bayong was immediately displeased, saying, "I’m the Vice Dean, their leader."
"Great, who made them dance?" Li Yifei asked again.
Ma Bayong, not afraid of the other party, directly patted his chest and said, "I did. I told them to dance. So what? Who do you think you are to come cause trouble at school? I’m telling you, you’d better leave, or when the campus police arrive, you’ll be in big trouble!"
"Haha!" Li Yifei sneered and said, "By what authority do you make them dance?"
"I’m the Vice Dean, didn’t you hear? I like to make them dance, so they have to dance. They have to dance even if they don’t want to!" Ma Bayong patted his chest, trying to show off.
"So you’re saying it’s you who forced them to dance?" Li Yifei continued to ask.
"No, I chose to dance willingly, it has nothing to do with Dean Ma." Chu Xiaoyao interrupted from the side.
"Chu Xiaoyao, my patience is limited, and you’d better stop provoking me constantly." While speaking, Li Yifei couldn’t help but grit his teeth, while Chu Xiaoyao snorted.
Seeing this, Su Lio finally couldn’t bear it, walked over, and grabbed Li Yifei’s arm, almost pleading, "Let’s go, I won’t dance anymore. Xiaoyao, you shouldn’t dance either!"
"Why shouldn’t we dance!" The stubbornness rose in Chu Xiaoyao, and she wasn’t easily going to give in. After shouting, she immediately turned to leave.
"Xiaoyao!" Su Lio stamped her feet in anxiety. She even felt that if Chu Xiaoyao left like this, the situation would definitely escalate immensely. She sensed that at that instant, Li Yifei’s arm muscles tightened, not just the arm, his whole body’s muscles tightened sharply.
"Su Lio, why won’t you dance! I’m telling you, if you dare not to dance, I’ll..." Ma Bayong furiously pointed at Su Lio, intending to threaten, but before he could finish speaking, Li Yifei stepped sideways, blocking in front of him. Ma Bayong immediately pointed at Li Yifei again, cursing, "You still want to block me, huh? I’m warning you, if you don’t step aside, impacting the school and endangering public safety, these two charges will be your undoing!"
"You’ve been spoiled!" Li Yifei raised his hand and slapped, with a crisp ’thwack’ sound. Ma Bayong didn’t even realize what happened before his body spun around 180 degrees, suddenly turning his back, taking a few steps forward.
This slap was tactical; Li Yifei didn’t use brute force, but it looked heavy. Of course, it was genuinely painful but wouldn’t leave a bruise.
"Ah..." The sound of gasping and screaming came at the same time as the surrounding students were shocked by the hot temper of the man in sunglasses. Although they didn’t have a good impression of Ma Bayong either, this old man was purely a lecher, having given up on promotion and turned his attention to young female students, and even female instructors. Don’t think it’s impossible; at least Su Lio and Chu Xiaoyao have been harassed by him several times. Especially during this rehearsal, the old lecher often wandered into the dance room where the rehearsal was happening, watching with lustful eyes.
The rehearsal room was basically filled with girls, and when the old man stood there, it was fake to say he had no ill intentions. So when Li Yifei started to beat people, although Su Lio was a bit nervous, she didn’t stop him, and Chu Xiaoyao also snorted.
Beating people only intensifies the conflict, especially on campus, it might cause outrage. But Li Yifei didn’t think about these things. The old man’s appearance wasn’t likable, and what he said made Li Yifei want to hit him directly.
This was probably one of the few times in the past half year that Li Yifei wanted to hit someone. This slap stunned Ma Bayong, who spun around on the spot and almost fell to the ground, crying out in pain while clutching his face. Li Yifei had already turned to look at Chu Xiaoyao and said, "You absolutely have to dance, right?"
"Yes, I must dance!" By this point, Chu Xiaoyao saw Li Yifei had not only hit Li Xiang but also the Vice Dean Ma. She already knew he was really angry. But so what? Chu Xiaoyao didn’t think she had done anything wrong. She hadn’t gone off flirting with other men, so why was he so mad!
After speaking, Chu Xiaoyao walked over to the group of girls and said, "Let’s go!"
The girls exchanged looks, and one asked, "Xiaoyao, he hit the Vice Dean Ma. We won’t be able to dance today, right?"
She seemed to be asking a question, but was actually provoking Chu Xiaoyao’s temperament. Chu Xiaoyao glared back at Li Yifei with eyes full of blame, and her departure directly agitated Li Yifei’s nerves. He had hit people, so his anger had calmed down somewhat, but now it surged back.
The two stunned victims on the ground shared a feeling of empathy. Vice Dean Ma, recovering a bit, immediately pulled out his phone and called for campus police. The university’s campus police were officially appointed officers, practically connected to the police station, usually about ten officers on duty. But they rarely encountered anything serious, at most a student fight, and usually by the time they arrived, the fight was over.
Li Xiang secretly dialed a number and as soon as the call connected, he cried out as if in mourning, "Mom, come to the school quickly! I’ve been hit! I’m about to be beaten to death!"
On the other side, the news was explosive. As a protective mother, hearing such words was akin to having a fuse ignited, so she immediately shouted, "Son, wait there, Mom’s coming over! Whoever dares to bully my son, I’ll kill them!"
Li Yifei glanced at the trembling Su Lio and said, "Go to the car, turn on the air conditioning. You don’t need to worry about this."
"Xiaoyao..." Su Lio looked in the direction where Chu Xiaoyao had walked away.
"Let her be. Good girl, you’re not well, quickly get in the car." Li Yifei said.
Su Lio bit her lip gently, nodded, and before she turned around, she said quietly, "The first one is Li Xiang, a Rich Second Generation. His family is very wealthy, they’re from the provincial capital. Ever since he saw Xiaoyao and me on the first day of school, he’s been pestering us... But Xiaoyao and I have ignored him, although... we did accept a few flowers, but only due to the crowd egging us on. Don’t mind it. The other is Ma Bayong, the Vice Dean, a lecher, not a good person. You did well hitting him."
After speaking, Su Lio went back to the car. As one of the most beautiful freshmen among the onlookers got into the Land Rover Aurora, the surrounding students felt a sense of loss. Yet they admired the other girl for her character, standing firm against the man in sunglasses.
"Just wait and see how I’ll deal with you!" Ma Bayong’s face, full of pain and malice, took a step back as he pointed angrily at Li Yifei and said, "How dare you cause trouble at the school. How dare you hit me, I’ll make you pay dearly!"
Li Yifei thought for a moment and also pulled out his phone, dialing a number.
Shen Fang was the Party Secretary of the university, effectively the highest official in the school. After all, this was a Public University under party supervision. Today was the campus’s annual sports day, and all school leaders had to attend unless under special circumstances. It was also an opportunity to show face; no leader would want to give it up easily.
His phone rang, and Shen Fang glanced at it. Seeing it was an unfamiliar number, he frowned but still answered it. It was his personal number, so few knew it, and it appeared to be a local call. He answered and said hello, when he heard, "Shen Fang Secretary, right?"
This voice... Shen Fang found it familiar but couldn’t recall where he had heard it before, so he asked, "May I ask, who is this?"
"Secretary Shen Fang, I am Li Yifei." As Li Yifei spoke, he’d already returned to the car. The onlookers couldn’t hear his voice clearly, but Secretary Shen Fang, on the other side of the line, was startled. He had known the name Li Yifei for some time but had never interacted directly until a few months ago, when Li Yifei requested his help to get two students into the school. That was how Secretary Shen Fang indirectly got to know Li Yifei. Although Li Yifei had called him before, it was only by phone, no meals shared together.
