Chapter 687: Unexpected Resistance
Chapter 687: Unexpected Resistance
“Good, I’ll call you ‘Peng Peng’.” Gramps Ren nodded and said, “Let’s let Ye Lin do whatever I couldn’t do with you.”
Wait, wait, what are you saying? Are you asking me to do gay stuff with Peng TouSi on your behalf? Master, you just accepted me as a disciple, but you can’t screw me over right away. After all, I’m your granddaughter’s reserve boyfriend.
“Elder QiShan, how many years do you think Ye Lin needs?” Peng TouSi said with a serious face.
“If he does it everyday, then in ten years, he can reach sixty or seventy percent of my peak.”
“I’m satisfied even if I can fight once with someone who can use 60% or 70% of the elder’s strength.”
So, so it wasn’t gay stuff, it was about me having a duel with Peng TouSi on behalf of gramps Ren.
Gramps Ren intends to spend ten years to refine me into a true Spartan and teach me the true essence of Yin Yang Sanshou so that I can fight with Peng TouSi?
Stop kidding around, I have a viral heart disease right now. I’m not a true Spartan, but a sickly Spartan. If you work me day and night, then I might even pass on before the gramps.
Also, forget ten years, I don’t think I could beat Peng TouSi even with twenty years of training. He’s the world’s number one, even if he’s not the world’s number one fighter, he’s still the world’s number one gay man!
The most important thing is that you are so old, but he still wants to be gay with you. If I become a Spartan macho man, Peng TouSi will never let me go.
“Grandpa.” Xiao Qin walked over, “Don’t force Ye Lin classmate to practice martial arts, if you do it day and night… Ye Lin classmate would not have time to do anything else.”
“What would a girl know.” gramps Ren said, “Practicing martial arts is the idea of a man’s romance.”
I vaguely felt Peng TouSi send a wink at me, which made me shudder even in the heat of summer.
I don’t know if it’s romantic or not, but Peng TouSi definitely is. Even if I learn the full version of Yin Yang Sanshou, I don’t want to fight with Peng TouSi.
If you want to know why, it’s because I do not, want, to, touch, his, body. He might even be invigorated if I hit him.
At this time, Dr. Yu, who was wearing a white coat with a cigarette in his mouth, came out and walked towards the principal followed by two of the school’s doctors.
“Eh.” Seeing Zhao Yao, who had vomited blood and fainted under a tree, Dr. Yu was surprised, “I’ve seen this reporter on TV before. I always suspected that he spoke without thinking, and would have loved to find an opportunity to dissect him, but I didn’t expect him to be delivered to my door…”
So he ordered the two doctors to drag him into the hospital. I don’t know whether it was to rescue him or to dissect him.
After having a bout of sentimental regret with Peng TouSi, gramps Ren suddenly remembered something and called me aside and said to me:
“Xiao Ye Zi, I think I may have ruined the chance of your father getting married to my daughter.”
“Eh, master, what are you doing?” I panicked, “Is that why you were kicked out by Auntie Ren?”
“Who, who said I was kicked out?” Gramps Ren denied it, “I left Hong De to talk to her, after all, it’s more convenient to talk to people of the same generation.”
Auntie Ren’s brother Ren HongDe is 20 years older than her, so technically speaking, he’s not considered the same generation.
After chatting a bit with gramps Ren, I saw Ren HongDe leave the hospital with a serious expression and could not tell if he was happy or sad.
He walked up to me and gramps Ren and said to his father, “I want to talk to Ye Lin alone for a while. Dad, you lead Xiao Qin away, don’t let her hear.”
Gramps Ren nodded and dragged away Xiao Qin who tried to come over.
“Prin-, principal.” Ai Mi called out in surprise. Although she seldom attends class, she still knew the appearance of the principal of Qing Zi Academy.
“It’s okay.” Ren Peng said to Ai Mi, “As long as you continue to let me be the team leader, I won’t let my father make things difficult for you.”
“Then… even if I fail all seven exams, I don’t have to take make up the exams, right? Can you even change my grades and say I got full marks in all of them?”
“I’ll discuss it with my father, maybe he will agree.” Ren Peng replied, “But don’t tell him the reason I’m in the VIP building all the time is to play LOL, just tell him… I’m practicing conversational English with foreigners.”
“Hmph.” Ai Mi suddenly put on a queen-like attitude again, “If it’s lying to your father, I’ll say it after you change the grades on all my exams to perfect.”
“Why are you acting so smug?” Ren Peng gasped, “The reason why you want to change your grades is also to trick your mother and those entertainment reporters in America.”
“Bastard, how can you compare yourself with me.” Ai Mi chided, “I’m so beautiful, so I’ll be forgiven no matter how much I lie, also those were lied to should feel honored instead. You’re so ugly, so you should just be an honest person.”
“I, it’s only because I have half bald eyebrows…” Ren Peng still did not know that in the near future, his eyebrows would be completely gone.
Ren HongDe, who was in a full suit, might not know any martial arts, but he stood at nearly one meter ninety centimeters. If you then add on the years he’s been the principal and chairman of the board, it made me, a junior high school student, feel very oppressed in front of him.
I bet my dad felt the same way when he met Ren HongDe, maybe even worse because he slept with his sister.
After taking me to a secluded area by an old tree, Ren HongDe turned his head and got straight to the point: “Ye Lin, what’s going on with your relationship with mother?”
I learned that Ren HongDe already knew about my relationship with Ai ShuQiao.
It’s not that surprising when you think about it. If Ai ShuQiao let her daughter attend Qing Academy, she must have already talked to the principal and chairman, or maybe the two already had prior business dealings. Due to the fact Xiao Qin likes me, Ren HongDe also did a detailed background check on me, that’s when he was able to guess Ai ShuQiao was my mother.
I said, “Principal Ren, so you already know…”
Ren HongDe’s face remained hard to decrypt, “I know that Madam Ai ShuQiao is your mother. I also know that the two of you are at odds. What I don’t understand is what you two are doing right now, apparently it’s going to be a ‘battle’.”
His swept over my face with his skeptical eyes.
“You’re just a child, why would you fight with your own mother, a business elite who has a lot of capital and countless connections, you’re just being childish.”
“It’s not as simple as being childish.” After being repeatedly pointed out by Ren HongDe that Ai ShuQiao was my mother, I could no longer suppress my anger, “She is not qualified to be a mother. I want to save my sister from her hands.”
“How?” Ren HongDe calmly and directly asked a question that was difficult to answer.
“I, I don’t know yet… but I will find a way.” I refused to admit that my chances of winning were slim.
Ren HongDe sighed, the gray hair at his temples made him look even older.
“You guys should make peace.”
“What?”
“When I used to take in American students, I used to deal with Madam Ai ShuQiao and I know that she was very well-connected in the United States, regardless of people…”
“So basically she does both legal and illegal things, why are you being ambiguous.”
“Ye Lin, if you already know she’s an unscrupulous person…” Ren HongDe looked me up and down, “Then you should definitely seize the opportunity to make peace with her. Otherwise, with her temperament, if you anger her, and she takes out her anger our relatives, then it will not be worth the loss.”
I suddenly realized that when gramps Ren said that the marriage talks between my dad and Auntie Ren had “collapsed”, it wasn’t only because gramps Ren didn’t say the right words, but because Ren HongDe was concerned of my tense relationship with Ai ShuQiao. He was afraid that Ai ShuQiao would retaliate against my dad, or even against Auntie Ren, who was talking about marriage with my dad.
Are you also afraid of Ai ShuQiao? The Qing Zi Education Group has 36 branches in cities all across the country, do you also fear Ai ShuQiao as the chairman of such a large corporation?
“Principal Ren.” I said with a bit of contempt, “I heard Auntie Ren say that you donate a lot of money to the Golden Shield Foundation every year for the pensions of fallen police officers… if you’re so righteous, why are you afraid of Ai ShuQiao who hangs out with criminals?”
Ren HongDe frowned, as if not expecting me to ask such a harsh question.
After a pause, he said in a deep voice: “It’s because she has ties with the mafia, so I can’t take her lightly. It doesn’t matter if she hurts me, but I can’t watch my sister get hurt…”
Huh, so the reason you want me to make peace with Ai ShuQiao is mainly because you’re worried about Auntie Ren getting hurt? Since we’re both siscons, I seem to have no right to accuse you of being timid.
“Anyway, before you and Madam Ai ShuQiao make peace, I won’t agree to let my sister marry your father.”
“In the past five years, all those who have opposed Madam Ai ShuQiao have either ceased to exist or somehow evaporated, so do you think I would let my sister get involved?”
“It’s better earlier than later. Once you have completely recovered and figured it out, let’s find a time to talk it out with Madam Ai ShuQiao.”
“I’ll be the middleman, whatever conflicts there are, let me mediate and make sure to resolve the animosity between the two of you.”
“If the animosity between you and Madam Ai ShuQiao can’t be resolved…” Ren HongDe clenched his right fist, “Forget the matter with my sister and your father, I won’t even agree to you and Xiao Qin.”
