Chapter 24 Going to War!_1

Qiu Mo turned out to be Vice Principal Wang's niece!

No wonder after being caught a few times at school for his behavior with Qiu Mo, Vice Principal Wang had such a deep impression of him!

Suddenly, Ji Yun also remembered something.

Vice Principal Wang once became emaciated with high blood pressure.

And that seemed to be when he and Qiu Mo were dating in high school.

Qiu Mo's grades had always been excellent, consistently topping the list as first in the year, no doubt a source of great pride for Vice Principal Wang.

Alas, I, like a wild boar, ruined his white cabbage!

Alright, it was my recklessness.

"Ji Yun??" Doctor Lou approached, looking somewhat surprised at the male doctor beside him.

"Yes, the patient's name is Ji Yun. According to some of his past medical records, he might have congenital heart problems. His condition was bound to deteriorate due to smoking, staying up late, over-exerting himself, and engaging in adrenaline-stimulating rescue work," the male doctor concluded after analyzing Ji Yun's case.

"The ventilator is barely helping with his breathing. Is there a new device we could use?" Doctor Lou quickly calmed down and asked the male doctor.

"Chief Deng is in charge of that, we can't do anything about it."

"Then prepare for a heart bypass surgery," Doctor Lou said.

"Alright!"

In the past, Doctor Lou had never recognized him.

But it was clear that this time, Doctor Lou's emotions were not as calm as they had been before.

Her gaze occasionally swept over Ji Yun's face, then she would force herself to focus on the emergency surgery…

"The patient's heart rate is erratic!"

"Not good, the patient might…" The nurse became somewhat panicked.

"Ji Yun, Ji Yun, listen to me, Ji Yun, I am Lou Yu, I am Lou Yu, Ji Yun ... hold on, I can save you, don't give up easily, don't give up easily, I can..." Lou Yu's voice was filled with a hint of pleading.

As a professional doctor, she knew that Ji Yun was currently in a state similar to a vegetative person.

Ji Yun could hear, and even see, but he had lost all control over his body.

Lou Yu repeated her words time and again by Ji Yun's ear, hoping he would pull through.

Some tear drops, illuminated by the surgical lights, scattered crystal-like luster, hanging on Lou Yu's eyelashes, making her already star-like beautiful face even more delicate and appealing.

It was a case of pear blossoms bathed in rain, which perfectly described her at that moment.

Ji Yun looked at her, just looked at her, as his consciousness gradually peeled away from his body.

I'm sorry for making you so upset again.

It's my lacks strength.

"10:21."

"The patient shows no signs of life."

...

The sunlight spilled down, yet at the edge of the perfect disc, a tiny black defect appeared.

Ji Yun slowly woke up on the desks and chairs in the classroom.

Although he could feel Doctor Lou's sadness and sorrow in the previous instances, she didn't know the identity of the deceased before.

But this time, she knew.

Her reluctance, her astonishment, her sorrow, in those last minutes on the operating table, utterly infected Ji Yun, stirring up waves in his heart.

Ji Yun turned his head, his gaze falling on a corner of the classroom.

In that corner, the slim girl sitting quietly reading a book - had she been unwilling to forget him for a whole decade?

Ji Yun had thought that after ten years, Lou Yu would have no feelings for him and would have forgotten about her girlhood crush, but seeing her as a doctor tearfully operating on him, Ji Yun knew she hadn't forgotten at all.

Not only had she not forgotten, but she also seemed to be anticipating a reunion.

Little did he expect that the reunion would take place on an operating table, in the last twenty or so minutes of his life...

...

"Hey, why are you so distracted!" Shen Cangcang's voice rang in Ji Yun's ear.

"I'm dealing with some annoying stuff," Ji Yun shook his head and said.

"You're not too bad, why not come here after class to practice with me more," Shen Cangcang seemed to have found an interesting sparring partner, revealing a smile that suggested she was willing to make friends.

"That's not very good, what if your boyfriend misunderstands," Ji Yun said.

"What are you talking about, I don't have a boyfriend!" Shen Cangcang said.

"Oh, that's still not good, I'm afraid my girlfriends might misunderstand," Ji Yun jokingly said.

The best way to relieve distress in the heart is through battle.

This time, Ji Yun didn't dawdle and went straight to practice.

After a vigorous battle with Teacher Cang, Ji Yun felt much better and also slightly planned the trajectory of his actions.

He still had to consider the consequences. Other people did not matter, how they would end up was none of his business, but he could not harm the people around him.

"I wouldn't have guessed you were such a player," Shen Cangcang took off her protective gear, her sweaty hair sticking to her forehead, revealing a perfectly disheveled and casual beauty.

"I was a bachelor in my last life, so I guess I'm a bit more thoughtful in this one," Ji Yun said.

As he said this, Ji Yun suddenly felt a bit amused.

It was as if he was pretending to be a player, when in reality, he was still a virgin!

Shen Cangcang stood up and opened the window to let the fresh air in, but a strong smell of smoke assailed her, causing her to cough violently.

She closed the window with an annoyed expression.

"These old smokers are so annoying, I really want to drag them up here and kick them over!" Shen Cangcang said.

"I was thinking the same thing. How about I lure them here later and we have a 'closing the door to beat the dog' situation? You knock over half of them and I'll take down the other half?" Ji Yun said.

"You alone are enough. Getting physical with those people would dirty the soles of this girl's shoes," Shen Cangcang declared.

Ji Yun also stood up and glanced outside the window.

The brown-haired Huang Xin and his lackeys were puffing clouds of smoke, second-hand smoke drifting up.

"I'm not up to par yet. If I come here a few more times, I should at least be able to last 10 minutes under your onslaught," Ji Yun stated.

"You still have a long way to go," Shen Cangcang said with a confident smile.

"No problem, I have plenty of time. By the way, who's that guy with the blue hair? Seems pretty cocky," Ji Yun stood by the window and pointed at the young man showing off his sadistic tendencies.

"Chin Feng, kind of like my junior brother. But because of his problematic character, Teacher Qin kicked him out of the youth martial arts team. He's been throwing his weight around at school since he learned a bit of martial arts," explained Shen Cangcang.

"Chin Feng??"

Ji Yun hadn't paid much attention before, but as Shen Cangcang revealed this guy's identity, he suddenly remembered something.

It must have been during their senior year that Jiang Hua had organized a group of people for a fight.

It was also then that he and Wu Kai indignantly withdrew from school because neither of them had actually fought.

The families of the middle school students who were beaten up made a huge ruckus, because the assailants were exceptionally cruel. The incident turned serious as the entire nation was cracking down on typical examples of campus violence, and it became a blemish on Lixue Middle School's record. The participants all faced severe punishment.

Jiang Hua was a tobacco peddler, not very strong himself but especially good at inciting and rallying others.

And it seemed that the one who had been the most ruthless was a guy called "Chin Feng"!

Ji Yun and Wu Kai never associated with these delinquent students from the school; their only connection was through Jiang Hua.

So, when they arrived at the scene, they were automatically presumed by the school to be in league with Chin Feng and those troublemakers!

As kids from Craftsman Street and from ordinary families, both Ji Yun and Wu Kai were in a worse position compared to the rich kids like Luo Yao. If they didn't stand united, they were more susceptible to bullying.

With this in mind, they had gone there only to find that things were not as they had assumed.

Jiang Hua was just bullying the weak, flaunting his connections.

He even broke people's leg bones!

And hit their faces with bricks!

Chin Feng was taken into criminal detention, while many of the students who had participated in the beating ended up in jail. All the others who had taken part were expelled... Ji Yun and Wu Kai, in their wisdom and kindness, left the scene but still had to face the severe penalty of being placed under school probation and carrying that record to college.

According to the teachers, Ji Yun and Wu Kai should have informed them immediately instead of just leaving the scene.

However, Ji Yun and Wu Kai thought those guys were just going to scare the middle school kids; after they left, they couldn't have imagined that Chin Feng, sick in the head, would beat someone to such a state!

"This Chin Feng needs to be disciplined," Ji Yun squinted his eyes, watching the defiant youth basking in the sunlight.

"Sigh, relying on his family's wealth... His parents have contracted many projects in Lan City and have no time to discipline him. He's also very combative and brave. Teacher Qin wanted to manage him, but he was too much to handle and had to be kicked off the martial arts team," Shen Cangcang said.

"Is that so? Then I'll give it a try."

...

"Kid, enjoying the cool ground, aren't you?"

...

"Hey, enjoying the cool ground, aren't you? How come you're out of steam so quickly?"

...

"Kid, enjoying the cool ground, aren't you?"

...

"Hey, don't feel like getting up from the cool ground, eh? It's only been 5 minutes!"

...

"Where did that arrogance go? How cool is the ground, huh? It's only been 7 minutes!"

"Which class are you from? Not bad."

...

"10 minutes?"

"Hmm, 10 minutes. You win. Name your terms," Shen Cangcang said with evident displeasure.

A random guy from this school was actually able to last 10 minutes under her assault without getting KO'd!

Was she too weak, or was this guy actually a pro?

"Apart from martial arts, what else do you like?" Ji Yun asked.

"What are you implying, you want to chase after me??" Shen Cangcang bluntly said, "Unless you can beat me, don't bother with such ludicrous requests!"

"You're thinking too much. I just want to be friends," replied Ji Yun.

"Really?" Shen Cangcang sized up Ji Yun like a little fox.

He wasn't bad looking.

His foundation in martial arts was solid too.

Why hadn't she noticed such a strong guy in Lixue Middle School before?

"Hmm, adding you, I'm going to be too busy. You said it yourself, if I can last 10 minutes, I get to make a request. I want to be friends, and I'll get you a gift you like on your birthday," Ji Yun said.

This was considered finishing one's apprenticeship.

He had to prepare a graduation gift for Teacher Tifa anyway!

As he said this, Shen Cangcang's beautiful eyes were moving about.

She hesitated for a moment, then said, "Today is actually my birthday. Apart from martial arts trophies, I also like kittens... all sorts of small, adorable animals, actually."

"Ah? I had no idea!" Ji Yun exclaimed in surprise.

Immediately, Shen Cangcang adopted a stern look, like a little wild cat whose tail had been caught, and said, "What's with that reaction? I'm a girl too, what's wrong with liking small animals!"

"Oh, I didn't mean it like that. I'm just surprised that today is your birthday," Ji Yun explained.
