Dragon King’s Son-In-Law

“The student’s name is Hao Ren. He seemed to have had a conflict with the soccer team in the cafeteria,” Zhao Guang said over the phone.

“Soccer team…” the Principal suddenly had a clear idea. “Do not worry, Mr. Zhao. I will look into this incident.”

Even though he said that, he already prepared to withdraw the punishment. In fact, he expressed what he meant very clearly.

Dididi! Hao Zhonghua’s number was still flashing on the Principal’s cell phone.

Zhao Guang and Hao Zhonghua were both important figures in East Ocean City. One of them was an important figure in science, and the other one was an important figure in commerce.

It was the first time the Principal of East Ocean University received phone calls from these two prominent figures at the same time. He didn’t dare to cut off Zhao Guang and switch to Hao Zhonghua, so he had to wait anxiously for Zhao Guang to finish.

“Okay. I’m just asking. That is all; please continue with your schedule.” Zhao Guang hung up the phone.

Principal Liu was slightly relieved. He didn’t have time to call East Ocean City to ask about the punishment and answered Hao Zhonghua’s phone call right away.

“Principal Liu, this is Hao Zhonghua. I have something to say. My son, Hao Ren, fought at school and caused trouble. I would like to apologize for him.”

“Huh?” The Principal didn’t react in time.

The relaxed mood suddenly became intense, and he thought, “What is this about? Because of the b*stards on the soccer team, they punished Zhao Guang’s nephew and gave him probation as a punishment. And now, Hao Zhonghua’s son fought with someone else at school too?”

The Principal felt like his head was getting bigger due to all the stress.

“What has Lu Qing been doing recently? He has turned the school into a complete mess,” the Principal thought.

His brain was heating up and quickly focused on Hao Zhonghua’s phone call. Therefore, he didn’t relate the Hao Ren that Zhao Guang mentioned to Hao Zhonghua’s son.

“I called you not to ask you to deal with this matter lightly. In my opinion, no matter who the person is, they deserve full punishment. I already asked Vice Principal Lu to give out probation as the punishment. The reason for giving you this phone call is to apologize for the trouble my son had caused.”

Hao Zhonghua said these words in a sincere tone, and the Principal understood what Hao Zhonghua meant.

“This famous scientist wants the school to handle his son the same way without special treatment,” the Principal thought. He knew that Hao Zhonghua wanted his son to be punished just like other students if not more severe.

However, there was a deeper meaning to this. Hao Zhonghua’s words meant that he felt like the school wasn’t managed properly!

The Principal started sweating right away.

“Therefore, please don’t lighten this punishment; follow the school’s regulations and deal with him. If a similar situation happens within half a year, expel him,” Hao Zhonghua said.

The sweat on the Principal’s face dropped on the carpet of the hotel. Hao Zhonghua said it lightly, but who had the guts to expel Hao Zhonghua’s son?!

“There’s nothing else. Sorry for calling you this late.”

“No worries, no worries!” the Principal wiped his sweat and said at the same time.

Despite talking over the phone, the Principal still felt immense pressure!

“That’s everything. Rest soon, Principal Liu. Sorry for all the troubles.” Hao Zhonghua hung up the phone.

The Principal put his cell phone away and exhaled. It felt more tiring than running a race!

“The school doesn’t give out probation as punishment regularly. Therefore, Zhao Guang’s nephew is clearly Hao Zhonghua’s son,” the Principal thought as he knocked his head and was a little perplexed. “What is going on? One wants to withdraw the punishment, and the other wants to keep it… The relationship between Hao Zhonghua and Zhao Guang seems to be great. A while ago, Mingri Group invested 100 million yuan into Ocean Research Institute… Should I withdraw it or keep it? One is funding the school, and the other is a major help in terms of scientific research. It’s not good to offend either side, and it’s difficult to please both sides…”

The Principal scratched his slightly balding head and fell into a dilemma.

Unexpectedly, an incident with Hao Ren involved two significant figures.

“I didn’t pay enough attention to Hao Ren before…” The Principle gritted his teeth and thought, “These b*stards on the soccer team are out of control and finally caused a huge problem!”

…

In the house near the ocean, Hao Zhonghua hung up the phone and turned around to look at Yue Yang.

“I hope no one tries to help out Hao Ren regarding this incident anymore,” he said.

Yue Yang sighed helplessly. Other people tried their best to waive the punishment, but Hao Zhonghua was the opposite and tried to give Hao Ren a more severe punishment.

Hao Zhonghua called to prevent people from waiving for Hao Ren’s punishment. Moreover, the school couldn’t just pretend nothing happened and withdraw the punishment in a few weeks.

“You overdid it. A punishment from the school was enough already, but you also made him write calligraphy when he came back,” Yue Yang complained slightly when she thought of this.

She thought Hao Zhonghua took it too seriously.

In Yue Yang’s mind, Hao Ren took calligraphy classes when he was in elementary school. Hao Ren’s calligraphy at that time seemed to be okay, but he hadn’t touched an ink brush in more than ten years. Having Hao Ren practice calligraphy right now would put him in a difficult situation.

“He’s too arrogant at school. We should tone him down a little.” Hao Zhonghua frowned and said, “You see Lu Linlin, Lu Lili, Yujia, and Zi all gather around him. He might forget who he is!”

Yue Yang glanced at Hao Zhonghua and said, “Weren’t you the same when you were in school? Big scholar?”

Hao Zhonghua was at a loss for words.

“You can only do this when Ren’s grandma isn’t here. If your mom is home, she’ll break your legs with a stick for punishing Ren!” Yue Yang said again.

Hao Zhonghua’s face instantly paled before turning red; Yue Yang’s words poked his soft spot.

“Be honest. If Ren fought because of Yujia, you wouldn’t punish him like this, right?” Yue Yang kept on asking.

“I’m not that narrow-minded!” Hao Zhonghua explained immediately.

“You favor Yujia, and that’s your position. However, you can’t stop Ren and little Zi’s relationship. Or else, you’ll see how I’m going to tell on you when your mom returns,” Yue Yang said right away.

“You’re betraying me and seeking shelter under my mom?” Hao Zhonghua threw away the papers in his hands and lightly pinched Yue Yang’s ear.

“After all, you’re still afraid of your mom, aren’t you?” Yue Yang said proudly.

“You dare to use my mom to threaten me? Let’s see how I am going to teach you a lesson.” Hao Zhonghua gently pressed on top of Yue Yang.

“You are… mean!” Yue Yang pinched Hao Zhonghua’s thick shoulders and laughed.

While they were enjoying their time flirting, Hao Ren spread out the rice paper and put the Thousand Character Classic besides him.

The Thousand Character Classic that Hao Zhonghua bought for Hao Ren was an ancient edition. The first half was written in the Regular Script Font, and the second half was written in Official Script Font. Both were used in this calligraphic copybook.

To imitate the copybook, it would take two to three hours to copy the Thousand Character Classic once according to normal speed. The punishment of ten times that Hao Zhonghua assigned was impossible to finish in one night. If Hao Ren insisted on finishing it, half of his weekend would be spent on it.

That was why Yue Yang thought Hao Zhonghua’s punishment was too harsh and wanted to say something.

“Gongzi, we’ll help you grind ink!”

Lu Linlin opened the inkstone, and Lu Lili took out the ink block. They didn’t think writing calligraphy was a punishment but treated it as a type of entertainment.

They had seen Hao Ren draw but hadn’t seen Hao Ren write calligraphy! Tonight, they would accompany Hao Ren, stay up all night with him, and grind ink for him like real maids!

“So loud…” Zhen Congming created a sound-proofing array formation in his bedroom. He asked Wu Luoxue to watch a movie after school today, but he got rejected; he had been in a bad mood.

Little White was in Zhen Congming’s bedroom. When it heard the noises in the living room, it wanted to join the fun. However, Zhen Congming’s array formation covered the space, so it could only stay by the corner of the bed.

[The sky is greenish-black, and the land is yellow. The universe is chaotic, and…]

Hao Ren started with a posture that corresponded with the Thousand-Character Classic’s meaning, and he wrote stroke by stroke.

Su Han had taught him how to utilize nature essence to draw, and Hao Ren still remembered the techniques.

In the beginning, Hao Ren’s realm was still very low, and Su Han had to guide him to use his nature essence. But now, Hao Ren’s abundant nature essence could be inputted into the ink brush.

The ink brush wasn’t a dharma treasure, and it wasn’t a good conductor for nature essence. However, it was still a part of the five elements and could be controlled by Hao Ren.

Whether it was the wooden brush, black ink, or white rice paper, they were all made from five elements. Hao Ren could find the five elements within them.

Cultivating until now, Hao Ren kept on feeling the Heavenly Dao through different methods.

[Vapor rises and become rain, and drew condenses into frost…]

As Hao Ren wrote, he comprehended the content of the Thousand Character Classic. His grandma was a traditional elder and made Hao Ren study classics such as Three Character Classic, Hundred Family Surnames, and Thousand Character Classic.

Therefore, Hao Ren’s understanding of the classics was very solid. He copied and comprehended the content of Thousand Character Classic at the same time.

These words seemed empty and boring before, but Hao Ren felt the truth, logic, and principle of heaven, earth, and nature.

Hao Zhonghua deliberately went to a bookstore to choose the Thousand Character Classic on his way back home to have Hao Ren relearn the fundamentals, reminisce benevolence and morality, and not to lose himself.

In fact, Hao Zhonghua knew that Hao Ren definitely couldn’t finish copying the book ten times even if he stayed up all night. However, in the process of punishing Hao Ren, he wanted to create a quiet space for Hao Ren to reflect on his past.

Grandma was very traditional, but Hao Zhonghua still got an excellent education from her in terms of principles and moralities.

Hao Ren’s writing was looking more proper over time.

So late into the night, the house was exceptionally quiet, and not even the sound of the waves could be heard.

Lu Linlin ground ink for Hao Ren, and Lu Lili spread the rice paper for him. They worked as a great team.

Xie Yujia stood beside Hao Ren, looked at his calligraphy quietly, and felt like Hao Ren’s temperament had changed.

The nature essence in Hao Ren’s body slowly flowed out; he almost didn’t have to control it for it to arrive at the tip of the brush smoothly.

He suddenly understood the things that he couldn’t comprehend when he was young. The first thing for cultivation was to have a calm mind, and a moderate attitude would follow.

“Gongzi, your writing is getting better!” Lu Linlin and Lu Lili praised lightly.

Hao Ren wrote freely, and every single stroke contained the profound meaning from the copybook. He didn’t find himself tired after continuing for a few hours. Instead, he felt energetic.

Xie Yujia didn’t understand calligraphy, but she could feel that Hao Ren’s writing was getting better. Not only was his writing smoother, but the meaning in his swords also deepened.

She looked at Hao Ren in shock because she didn’t expect Hao Ren to write beautiful calligraphy like this.

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were quick. They put another blank rice paper on top when they saw Hao Ren filled up the old one.

Xie Yujia also gave Hao Ren mental support; she stood beside Hao Ren and went from accompanying his punishment to enjoying his writing.

As the saying goes, the writings are just like the person who wrote them.

Hao Ren’s mind and attitude were peaceful, and the words he wrote were also exquisite.

“Get some rest, Yujia.” Hao Ren looked at Yujia and said.

“Nah…” Xie Yujia shook her head. “I’ll keep you company.”

The simple phrase touched Hao Ren.

[Mao Qiang and Xi Shi were young and pretty. Even if they frowned, they looked like they were smiling beautifully…]

Hao Ren just wrote these words. When he looked at Xie Yujia’s beautiful smile, he felt slightly guilty toward her.

They used to be childhood sweethearts, and they still stayed in the same city even when they parted by fate; they might have passed each other but didn’t recognize each other. They reunited again now, and the feelings of trust and dependence were still here. The only difference was that they had grown from naughty kids into young adults.

When Xie Yujia saw Hao Ren staring at her, her face turned slightly red, and she moved her gaze toward the rice paper.

Hua! Hao Ren turned the page of the Thousand Character Classic and started to change the font to Official Script.

The Lu sisters ground ink and looked at Hao Ren at the same time.

Hao Ren’s calligraphy wasn’t the best they had seen, but there seemed to be a feeling of enlightenment.

Ancient people said that put the force in one’s wrist when writing calligraphy, and Hao Ren was using the nature essence in his arms. Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll was being used in a special way; even when Hao Ren was writing calligraphy, he was also cultivating!

Weilu, Zhongting, Shaoze, Shaochong, Shangyang!

The sword energies were just like silk and rushed through these acupoints!

The only sword techniques that Hao Ren could use was the Mystic Water Sword Techniques. Subconsciously, he used it as he wrote!

The intent of the brush was the intent of the sword!

By writing calligraphy, Hao Ren had practiced his sword techniques and further improved his understanding of Heavenly Dao!

The sky got brighter gradually, and the sound of the ocean tide could also be heard.

Hao Zhonghua, who was wearing pajamas, walked down from the staircase.

He saw Hao Ren was still writing in the living room and felt bad, but his expression was still solemn.

He walked into the living room and said. “How far are you?”

“I still have the last half chapter,” Hao Ren said.

Hao Zhonghua looked at the girls beside Hao Ren and knew that they all stayed up with Hao Ren.

He felt a bit sorry and was touched by the three girls’ attitude.

“They all care about him so much! He sure is lucky!” Hao Zhonghua thought, “Hao Ren’s attitude is okay, but I still have to make sure that he learns his lesson.”

Hao Zhonghua picked up a piece of rice paper and was stunned when he looked at it.
