Chapter 1687: Encountered a Vile Person
Yang Ming first showed up in the classroom, then he went to see Xiao Qing in the control center in the teacher faculty building. As soon as he arrived, he found that all four tires of his car were deflated.
“Have my tires gone flat?” Yang Ming looked around with a bitter smile, but his car had not obstructed anyone. Usually, car tires were deflated as an evil revenge because the car’s position prevented others from parking.
Yang Ming had parked his car right in front of the teaching building. It would not hinder anyone at all. Therefore, he was a little puzzled. Did these people intentionally target me?
Yang Ming couldn’t be blamed for thinking this way. In general pranks, at most only one tire would be deflated. All four tires couldn’t be deflated! This was obviously intentional.
Yang Ming glanced at the surveillance camera on the teaching building and shook his head. It was basically impossible if someone wanted to check the school’s surveillance video, let alone because car tires had been deflated. It had caused no substantial loss. Therefore, it was difficult for the school to cooperate.
However, Yang Ming was different. Yang Ming was full of confidence, especially because this happened in front of the School of Computer Science teaching building.
He took out his mobile phone and dialed Xiao Qing’s number. Not long after, Xiao Qing’s cordial voice came through the phone. “Yang Ming, I heard from Jiajia that you’re back?”
“En, I’m at school now.” Yang Ming knew that Zhou Jiajia and Xiao Qing had become closer ever since the incident last time. Therefore, Xiao Qing would know of his whereabouts from Zhou Jiajia as soon as possible.
“Did you go to your instructor, Xie Yongqiang, to report your attendance? At the beginning of the semester, I applied for a long vacation on your behalf! If your performance didn’t win first place at the school’s art festival on behalf of the School of Computer Science, someone would already be dissatisfied with you!” Xiao Qing complained, “Although I am the head of the department, I’m not the sole decision-maker in this School of Computer Science. Everyone knows that you are my adopted little brother. Someone will definitely be dissatisfied if you don’t come to class for so long!”
“I know… I’ll go over now!” Yang Ming didn’t expect that his call to Xiao Qing would end up in him being scolded. However, Yang Ming also knew that Xiao Qing was only complaining to him. If the relationship between the two had not reached a certain closeness, Xiao Qing would not talk much to him.
“By the way, there should be something wrong for you to call me at this time, right?” Xiao Qing knew Yang Ming well. If he just wanted to see her, he would likely come over directly and would not make this call in advance. He often called her when he found out that she was not in the office.
“My car was parked in front of the computer science teaching building, but the tires were deflated. All four tires were deflated. I want to see the surveillance video to see who did it.” Yang Ming directly stated his demands without being courteous.
“They’re deflated?” Xiao Qing was stunned, “Did you provoke anyone again?”
“Today is the first day back at school. Who could I have provoked?” Yang Ming was somewhat innocent.
“Maybe someone considered you as a rival after seeing you come to school with a few girls, so they did this to mess with you?” Xiao Qing thought for a while and joked.
“That should not be…” After listening to Xiao Qing’s explanation, Yang Ming suddenly felt a little guilty. This might actually be a possibility.
“Hehe, what about this? I will call you Teacher Zheng. He is responsible for monitoring the surveillance video, and is also from our department.” Xiao Qing said, “You can go to the computer room on the twelfth floor of the teaching building to look for him. I will let him know in advance.”
“Okay, I’ll go up there now.” Yang Ming turned and walked back to the teaching building, “When I finish watching the video, I will look for you.”
“En, then I’ll wait for you in the office,” said Xiao Qing.
Yang Ming took the elevator to the computer room on the twelfth floor. After asking around, he found Teacher Zheng.
Teacher Zheng was a bald man in his thirties who wore a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose. At first glance, this was the typical image of a scholar.
“You are Yang Ming, right?” Teacher Zheng was very kind when he saw Yang Ming. “Director Qing Qing called me and said that her adoptive younger brother was coming to watch the surveillance video. I have already prepared it for you!”
Director Qing Qing? Yang Ming’s brow frowned slightly. Why does this person call Xiao Qing like that? However, Yang Ming didn’t say anything. He just nodded and smiled at Teacher Zheng’s attentiveness. “I’ve troubled Teacher Zheng.”
“It’s nothing. You are Director Qing Qing’s brother, so you’re also my brother!” Teacher Zheng laughed. “Don’t call me Teacher Zheng. Just call me Brother Zheng!”
It was obvious that Teacher Zheng was trying to develop a relationship with him. Even if Yang Ming was slow, he could still notice something! This Teacher Zheng likely had some intentions towards Xiao Qing!
Yang Ming was a bit disgusted thinking of this. He said with a grim look, “This is a school, so I will call you Teacher Zheng!”
“Oh?” Teacher Zheng was a little stunned. He was somewhat puzzled by Yang Ming’s firm rejection, but he didn’t take it seriously. “You’re right. This is a school. It’s better to be formal. It’s right for you to call me Teacher Zheng.”
Although Yang Ming didn’t really loathe Teacher Zheng, he still was a little disgusted by him. He was especially disgusted by those pretentious words he used to get closer to Yang Ming. Yang Ming shook his head.
This was most probably just a one-sided love. Although Xiao Qing was already thirty-years-old, she still looked like a twenty-year-old girl. When she was together with Chen Mengyan, they looked like sisters. On the other hand, this Teacher Zheng looked like an uncle.
The news of Xiao Qing’s infertility was not a secret in Song Jiang Industry University. Song Hang had spread word about it in the beginning. Xiao Qing did not deny the rumor so the truth of this matter was clear by itself.
Teacher Zheng was clearly aware of this. But for an older person like him, it was another matter whether he could find a girlfriend or not.
Yang Ming didn’t pay much attention to this kind of non-threatening person. He just watched how Teacher Zheng skillfully retrieved the surveillance video. Soon, Yang Ming saw the two culprits who deflated his tires.
Yang Ming was familiar with one of them, but he had no impression of the other one. Even though he was familiar with one of them, he did not know his name since they were not close.
“Li Boliang? How can he do this kind of thing?” Teacher Zheng looked at the culprits on the screen and suddenly exclaimed. “How is this possible?”
“Li Boliang?” Yang Ming frowned. He was only a bit familiar with this name. He didn’t know who this person was.
“Li Boliang is the chairman of our Computer Science Society!” Teacher Zheng didn’t hide anything. He was probably trying to please Yang Ming, in hopes that Yang Ming would say some good words about him in front of Xiao Qing.
“It’s him!” After being reminded by Teacher Zheng, Yang Ming remembered Li Boliang. Previously, Yang Ming and Zhou Jiajia had met this person at school when he tried to persuade them to join the computer science society. He boasted that he knew a hacker called “I Love Little Ming”…
Of course, after Yang Ming knew that “I Love Little Ming” was Zhou Jiajia, he had no interest in Li Boliang.
If it was him, it would be a bit strange. Is it because of Zhou Jiajia? But we had no contact with him after that. I haven’t even heard from Zhou Jiajia that someone is pursuing her!
“That’s weird. Why did he deflate your tires?” Teacher Zheng was also very puzzled about Li Boliang’s motivation.
The surveillance video was not very clear. It was a high angle shot. Yang Ming could not lip-read their conversation, so he planned to copy and enlarge it to analyze carefully. “Teacher Zheng, I want to copy this surveillance video. Is that okay?”
“No problem, there’s no problem!” Teacher Zheng agreed. He was afraid that Yang Ming would be dissatisfied and would bad-mouth him once he met Xiao Qing. If Yang Ming did so, he would have no hope in pursuing her. “Did you bring a USB? If not, I can burn it onto a CD for you.”
Yang Ming took out a USB from his pocket and handed it to Teacher Zheng. Yang Ming usually had a USB with him in case he needed it.
Teacher Zheng was very helpful in helping Yang Ming make a copy. He sent Yang Ming to the computer room’s entrance with a smile on his face. “Yang Ming, come over and hang out when you’re free!”
Yang Ming nodded his head and quickly got out of the computer room. He somewhat could not stand Teacher Zheng’s enthusiasm. It made him feel weird. Someone is lusting after my woman, but I can’t say anything about it.
Chapter 1688: Little Wang Takes Office
Yang Ming called Little Wang when he got into the elevator. Yang Ming didn’t plan to find him this early in the morning, but it seems that he needed Little Wang to pick him up now. Little Wang could also bring an air pump on his way.
To recount, Little Wange saw his girlfriend’s, Little Ran, sullen face as soon as he entered the door after he returned home last night. However, Little Wang didn’t care. He waved his hand at Little Ran and said, “Hurry up and cook me some delicious food. I haven’t eaten yet, and it just so happens that we have a cause to celebrate!”
“Celebrate? To celebrate what? What kind of tone are you using to talk to me?” Little Ran was angry that Little Wang didn’t get home on time. When she heard Little Wang talk to her in a commanding tone, she suddenly got angry. “You got home so late. Do you still have a reason?”
“You are so noisy! I told you that I have something important to do!” Little Wang frowned. He wanted to share the news of Yang Ming appointing him as his personal driver, but he didn’t expect to be scolded. It was really depressing.
“Something important? What is that important thing ?” Little Ran raised an eyebrow and said impatiently, “Do you know how much pressure I have to withstand for you every day? My dad called to arrange a blind date for me! He said that the other party is a white-collar in a company with a monthly salary of more than ten thousand yuan! He also asked what you were doing. I couldn’t say that you went out to fool around, so I said that you were working overtime at the hotel!”
“I… I really was not fooling around. I really did have something important ” Little Wang smiled bitterly. Little Wang’s heart had softened again upon hearing Little Ran talk about the pressure she was under. He couldn’t bear to keep arguing with her. “Okay, okay. So I didn’t explain it before. Can you listen to me now?”
“En, you can say it!” Little Ran really had no other way. Although Little Wang’s job as a security captain was a little better than an ordinary security guard, it still failed to meet her parent’s standards! From their point of view, their son-in-law must be not a low-level leader nor a low-level staff member. He had to be a senior staff member with a monthly income of more than ten thousand yuan. Little Wang was obviously far too shabby.
“I changed my job!” Little Wang said, “Little Ran, starting tomorrow, I will become another person’s driver.”
“What? You became a driver?” Little Ran was about to explode in anger when she heard that. She stood up and glared at Little Wang, “What did you say? You became someone’s driver? Why are you going even more backward? Although you are just a security captain now, at least you are managing some people. Why did you go backwards and become someone’s driver?”
“Little Ran, don’t be emotional. Listen to me first. This time, I’m Brother Yang’s driver!” Little Wang quickly explained.
“What Brother Yang or Brother Liu. You had a fine position as a security captain but you gave it up to become a driver. Did you make any mistakes or offend the hotel leader? Otherwise, how were you arranged to be a driver?” Subconsciously, Little Ran thought that Little Wang must have made a mistake and been punished!
“Brother Yang is the leader!” Little Wang hurriedly said, “What mistake did I make? I was exceptional, so the leader noticed me and let me be his driver. Others want to become his driver, but they didn’t have the opportunity!”
“Leader? He is your hotel’s leader?” Little Ran calmed down a little bit after hearing Little Wang’s explanation, but she was still secretly a little uncertain. She didn’t know which leader he was and how much salary Little Wang would earn.
“He’s not the hotel’s leader, but the chairman of our group!” Little Wang uttered a shocking sentence.
“What? The chairman of your group?” Little Ran froze! She was not stupid; she knew that the chairman’s driver was no ordinary driver. It could be said that only a person who was deemed trustworthy by the chairman could get this job. Also, the status was not lower than a department manager!
“Yes. Brother Yang has also promised me already. I will report to Ming Yang Entertainment tomorrow. I will be the deputy manager of the logistics department to help manage the group’s security. I will be Brother Yang’s driver the rest of the time. I just have to be on call at any moment!” said Little Wang.
“You were also transferred to the head office? He let you be the deputy manager of the logistics department?” Little Ran couldn’t accept this immediately and looked doubtfully at Little Wang. “Little Wang, are you lying to me? Even if my father’s pressure is too high, I can withstand it…”
It was hard to blame her. If Little Wang was valued by the chairman to only become his driver, it could be justified. However, he was suddenly promoted to the head office to be the deputy manager of the logistics department. Little Ran found it a little unbelievable!
“Why would I lie to you…” Little Wang smiled bitterly. “Today was also a coincidence. Brother Yang couldn’t drive as he had drunk a bit, so I sent him back. As a result, Brother Yang asked me if I were willing to drive him, and I agreed to it…”
“Could he have said some drunken words after drinking too much?” asked Little Ran worriedly.
“Brother Yang was sober at the time!” Little Wang waved his hand firmly. “When I was useless in the past, you expected me to have future prospects. Now that I have future prospects, you are distressed. I don’t know what you are thinking!”
“I’m just looking out for you…” Little Ran was a little embarrassed. “You wait, I’ll cook for you now!”
“En, I’ll browse the Internet to see how to be a qualified driver for a leader,” Little Wang said as he sat in front of the computer.
“You can turn off all my videos and farming games. Don’t let it affect the speed!” Little Ran said quickly. In the past, Little Ran hogged the home computer. Little Ran would be afraid that Little Wang would interrupt her game whenever he touched it. This time, she actively requested to close all the computer’s web pages.
Little Wang looked at Little Ran who was walking towards the kitchen and lamented the wonderfulness of her life.
Early morning the next day, Little Wang went to Ming Yang Entertainment without holding any doubts and reported to duty. Bao Sanli was very enthusiastic about him. The car assigned to him was actually an Audi A8, which made Little Wang somewhat flattered!
However, thinking about it carefully, this car was not his. It was just for him to drive Yang Ming around. So he was relieved.
As for Little Wang, Bao Sanli knew well that Yang Ming didn’t want to bother him and Hou Zhenhan to do some trivial things like picking him up. So, he found a full-time driver.
This Little Wang had also worked in the underworld before. He could be regarded as one of Bao Sanli’s veterans, so Bao Sanli was confident in his character. On Yang Ming, he just assigned Little Wang to drive around and to do some other common things. Yang Ming would still look for Bao Sanli and Hou Zhenhan for special things.
Little Wang just got the car keys and looked at the new Audi A8 downstairs. He was a little tempted to take it for a drive but it was better to not go and try it out if there was nothing to do.
At this moment, the phone rang. Little Wang took out his mobile phone. At first glance, he showed a respectful expression on his face, “Brother Yang!”
The call was made by Yang Ming. Little Wang had already saved Yang Ming’s number on his mobile phone.
“Little Wang, have you reported in?” asked Yang Ming.
“En, I’ve met President Bao. I’m in Ming Yang Entertainment’s parking lot. I just got my car key and planned to clean the car.” said Little Wang.
“Come to Song Jiang Industry University and bring an air pump on the way.” Yang Ming commanded Little Wang.
“Okay, Brother Yang. I’ll go there now!” Little Wang responded with joy! He was afraid that Yang Ming would not require his services. He did not expect that Yang Ming would request him the next day. This made Little Wang ecstatic!
You must know, everyone in the group was looking at him. The more Yang Ming frequently called him, the more it showed that Yang Ming valued him. This would make people in the group respect him more.
“Once you arrive, wait for me at the entrance. I will give you a call,” said Yang Ming.
“Rest assured, Brother Yang!” Little Wang hung up the phone excitedly, ran to the garage quickly, and shouted to the group’s team leader, “Little Liao, prepare a pressured air pump for me. Hurry up!”
The team also belonged to the management of the logistics department. Naturally, this Little Liao was also one of Little Wang’s men. However, Little Liao was older than Little Wang, so he became a little upset when he heard that Little Wang had become his leader.
