Novel Full Chapter 144
Chapter 144: Rogue Twin Tao
When Yang Ming and company arrived at school, the students of Grade 12 from different classes had assembled on the field. The students flocked together and chatted with one another.
Wang Zhitao and Chen Afu had two underlings with them who were Bi Yuntao and An Quantao. Their nickname was Grade 12’s “Invincible Twin Tao.” Even though they were not in the same class as Wang Zhitao, their parents worked in family Wang’s Xiongfeng Group. Hence, both of them had been Wang Zhitao’s underlings ever since they were young. In fact, in elementary school, Wang Zhitao belonged to the category of ‘hedonistic rich kids’. Along with the two of them, people called him the “Triple Tao Overlord.” However, Wang Zhitao became more restrained as he grew older.
People regarded Bi Yuntao and An Quantao as ruthless like Li Dagang in school. But, they wouldn’t dare to cause any trouble in front of a super-duper ruthless person like Yang Ming. Hence, they didn’t interact much with Yang Ming, and therefore Yang Ming didn’t know them.
Wang Zhitao and his three followers were discussing how to teach Yang Ming a lesson. As they noticed Yang Ming coming from afar, Wang Zhitao immediately signaled a hand gesture to his three followers. He squeezed a smile and waved his hand to Yang Ming. “Yang Ming, come here!”
Yang Ming had noticed Wang Zhitao and company earlier. He also “observed” the topic of their discussion clearly. It seemed like his efforts in learning lip-reading wasn’t wasted at all. Yang Ming laughed secretly. Let’s see who is the fool.
“Wang Zhitao, you are so early! The two of them are…” Yang Ming pointed at An Quantao and Bi Yuntao.
“Oh, both of them are my primary school classmates. Right now, they are in Class 5. Hey, let me introduce them. He is An Quantao, and he is Bi Yuntao!” Wang Zhitao said to both of them, “This is my good buddy, Yang Ming!”
Good buddy? Yang Ming had a cold smile in his heart. Do you think I don’t know what you said to them? Yang Ming gave a sidelong glance at An Quantao and Bi Yuntao. It was apparent that the two of them weren’t good fellows. Certainly, they were birds of the same feather as Wang Zhitao.
“Condom [1]? Contraception [2]?” Yang Ming intentionally said it in exaggeration, “Two condoms? Nickname?”
An Quantao and Bi Yuntao certainly had a sour expression after hearing it. However, they didn’t dare to cause any mess now. Firstly, they were no match for Yang Ming. Secondly, Wang Zhitao wouldn’t allow them to have a conflict with Yang Ming now.
“Ha, not condom and contraception. It is An Quantao and Bi Yuntao!” Wang Zhitao explained.
“Oh, I thought it was your nickname. It is too obscene!” Yang Ming spoke in sarcasm.
“Hehe, yes. Who knew how they came up with that name?” Wang Zhitao chimed in.
An Quantao and Bi Yuntao noticed how Wang Zhitao talked about it. Definitely, they weren’t fond of it, but they didn’t dare to speak out loud. Why are my parents working for his family? Most likely, Wang Zhitao will be taking up the general manager post of Xiongfeng group. At that time, he will control the survival of my parents! Also, I will probably be working for Wang Zhitao in the future. Hence, either of them didn’t dare to have a second opinion about it.
“En, that’s a unique character!” Yang Ming nodded his head. He acted friendly with Wang Zhitao on the surface, but, he didn’t want to talk so much. Hence, he spoke perfunctorily with Wang Zhitao. Then, he continued to chatter with Zhang Bing. Since it was in school, it wasn’t very appropriate for Chen Mengyan to stick closely with Yang Ming. Hence, she mingled with other female students.
“Why is the bus not here yet?” Chen Afu was impatient.
After a while, a speeding minibus arrived. Chen Afu was prepared to board the minibus first so that he could offer a seat to Wang Zhitao later on. With his goal to act like a smarta**, Chen Afu knocked on the minibus door, “Kuang! Kuang!,” and said impatiently, “Open the door faster!”
“Dumba**, f*** you. This is a school bus dedicated to the teachers. Your buses are coming behind!” The driver stretched out his head and scolded in agitation.
One sentence was enough to render Chen Afu in embarrassment. He wanted to display his capability, but it backfired. Yang Ming shook his head after he witnessed it. A retard like him can only be the follower of Wang Zhitao.
Chen Afu can be regarded as a war machine among smarta**es. The previous incident of him reporting Yang Ming was the result of his impulsive drive. Hence, Yang Ming felt that he could utilize Chen Afu further. If the plan worked well, it would disgust Wang Zhitao for quite some time
After a few moments, a few old buses arrived. They were for the students in each class.
In fact, it was irrational to have higher expectations for a better bus given a twenty yuan fare for each person. As such, it was ten yuan for a one-way trip. Of course, a price of a public bus would only offer a bus ride! It was amusing that Chen Afu expected to have a ride in a Mercedes-Benz with merely twenty yuan. It wasn’t realistic after all.
The public bus was bigger. Everyone on board essentially had a seat. Yang Ming sat with Zhang Bing. Chen Mengyan sat together with a girl named Zhao Sisi.
Zhao Sisi and Chen Mengyan had a good friendship. Hence, Chen Mengyan could only glance at Yang Ming. She couldn’t just ignore Zhao Sisi.
Zhao Sisi was someone with average looks but was a delicate girl. If someone was to have this type of girl as his wife, she would be excellent wife material for a family. However, Yang Ming wasn’t fond of this type of girl.
“What do you think about Zhao Sisi?” Zhang Bing suddenly asked Yang Ming.
“Zhao Sisi?” Yang Ming was surprised. “You like Zhao Sisi?”
“Nope.” Zhang Bing immediately denied. “I merely feel that her personality is quite different from Chen Mengyan. How can the both of them be good friends?”
“Who knows? Women can’t understand the brotherhood between men; men can’t understand the sisterhood between women.” Yang Ming shook his head in a dismissive manner.
“Hey, this sentence is classic!” Zhang Bing thought deeply, “Ai, oh ya, do you think Chen Afu likes Zhao Sisi?”
Yang Ming raised his head and looked in the direction of Chen Mengyan. What appeared in front of his eyes was Chen Afu and Wang Zhitao sitting behind them. “Wang Zhitao is harassing my wife over there. Didn’t you notice? Ai? Oh ya, why do you care so much about Zhao Sisi?”
“No, I just felt that Chen Afu is a dumba**. I am irritated just by catching the sight of him.” Zhang Bing laughed it off.
West Star Mountain Reservoir is situated at West Star Mountain in Litong County, northwest of Song Jiang City. It is 137 km away from the urban area. It was historically known as Chang’e River. The reservoir was called Chang’e Lake. During the Tang dynasty, Li Bai, Du Fu, Bai Juyi [3] and many other poets had endured thousands of miles to recite a poem on the boat and go sightseeing. Ever since then, this place had turned into a tourism spot of Song Jiang City.
Recently, West Star Mountain turned into an excellent place for sightseeing, leisure, and fishing. On weekends and holidays, crowds of tourists and fishermen would visit here for amusement and fishing. Besides having a great view of the joyful scenery, there were also delightful moments in fishing for betta fish [4].
They arrived at the West Star Mountain Reservoir after two hours. The teachers and class monitors of each class divided the room after the headcount.
The accommodation fee was collected on the spot. In other words, they could choose either a twin bedroom or eight-bed dorm, since they paid for it themselves.
Zhang Bing straight ahead took out four hundred yuan and reserved two twin bedrooms. It wasn’t anything for Chen Mengyan due to her relationship with Yang Ming. However, Zhao Sisi was shy. She insisted on paying a hundred yuan to Zhang Bing.
Yang Ming had already noticed something wasn’t right with Zhang Bing. At this moment, he seemed to notice something about Zhang Bing’s offer. It was undeniable that Zhang Bing was generous with friends, but it was only limited to friends. For strangers with no connection to him, it should be what it had been – everything on their own. As such, Zhang Bing already possessed the potential of a successful businessman.
However, for today, Zhang Bing didn’t want to accept the money even though it was passed into his hand. Yang Ming noticed it. Hence, he gave an eye signal to Chen Mengyan.
Chen Mengyan was smart. She muttered to herself slightly and grasped Yang Ming’s message. She smiled while holding Zhao Sisi hands. “Sisi, you don’t need to be modest with them! You knew about the relationship between me and Yang Ming. You are my best friend, and Zhang Bing is Yang Ming’s best friend. How can he possibly accept money from you?”
“Then… alright… How about I treat you all for a meal?” Zhao Sisi hesitated a little bit. She wasn’t someone who sought petty gains.
“Hehe, let’s talk about it later!” Zhang Bing said with a smile, “Let’s go ahead and settle down with our luggage first!”
In fact, most of the items that they brought for the trip were food. Yang Ming and Zhang Bing carried big bags into the room.
Wang Zhitao was tickled with anger when he saw the lovey-dovey scene between Yang Ming and Chen Mengyan. But, his conscientiousness told him to stop harassing Cheng Mengyan during this period of time. Based on Chen Mengyan’s indifference and her beating around the bush attitude toward him on the bus ride, Wang Zhitao realized that his lie on the photo incident was exposed. The impression Chen Mengyan had on him dropped to rock bottom.
But, he was restless. With regard to family background and talent, I am better than Yang Ming on so many levels. Why is Yang Ming so lucky? Sometimes, the reason to be jealous was simple and Wang Zhitao definitely acted so.
