Chapter 99: Offering Oneself in Marriage

The little yellow-haired man was just about to see who was so bold, not expecting someone above to take the initiative to speak: "Su Weilei, you're here to act tough again? Have you forgotten how I almost beat you to death at the school gate back then?"

The little yellow-haired man looked up and saw Yang Tianxing leaning on the second-floor staircase with a smile, still speaking sarcastically.

His eyes turned red instantly, and just as he was about to rush up to start a fight, someone behind him shouted: "Stop!"

The person speaking was a young man in his early twenties, but his temperament was much more steady; seeing Yang Tianxing, he even greeted him.

"Tianxing, back for the holidays?"

Yang Tianxing nodded and tossed a cigarette down: "Su Weiyu, if you can't keep your brother in check, who knows when he'll get beaten to death by someone again."

The high school classmates downstairs didn't know why Yang Tianxing knew these two thugs, but Shao Ziyang walked over to explain: "Remember when little Yang fought a thug from outside the school?"

Everyone knew, of course; at the time, this incident caused a sensation throughout the school, and the school administration office even wanted to give Yang Tianxing a warning, but for some reason, it was cancelled.

Shao Ziyang pointed at the little yellow-haired man and said: "His name is Su Weilei, nicknamed 'Spear-Presser'; he used to be a student at Jinzhou No. 1 High School, but later he dropped out to hang out on the streets."

"The other one, called Su Weiyu, is his own brother, nicknamed 'Long Spear'; he used to be a thug too."

Shao Ziyang understood these matters very clearly: "At the time, Su Weilei wanted to date a girl from our school, but she wouldn't agree, so he blocked her at the gate."

"Little Yang just happened to run into it, and since he couldn't stand it, he said a few words."

"Su Weilei has a hot temper, so the two of them started fighting after a disagreement."

Tan Zhizhi suddenly asked: "Then who won?"

Shao Ziyang said with some pride: "Of course little Yang won. That night he fought with a fierce fire, beating Su Weilei nearly to death punch by punch. The school security couldn't stop him either; it wasn't until Su Weiyu appeared that the three of us managed to pull them apart."

"Something like that should be rewarded, how could they give him a demerit?"

A girl immediately spoke up for him.

Shao Ziyang also nodded: "That junior student took the initiative to go to the school administration office to explain the situation, which is why the school cancelled the demerit, but fighting is always wrong, so there certainly wouldn't be any commendation."

"I didn't know any of this," Tan Zhizhi murmured.

Shao Ziyang shrugged: "That's just little Yang's personality; he does things based on his mood and naturally wouldn't go around bragging."

Ding Xiaowan pointed at Yang Tianxing and Su Weiyu, who were chatting, and asked: "Then how do they know each other?"

"Little Yang liked to go out and have fun when he was in high school. Sometimes he would run into Su Weiyu. His brother Su Weilei is a brute, but Su Weiyu isn't as arrogant and is relatively low-key, so they got to know each other over time," Shao Ziyang explained.

Shao Ziyang explained.

Hu Jiahao was a bit curious: "Is that guy nicknamed 'Spear-Presser' not very bright? The prettiest girl in No. 1 High is clearly little Zhizhi, why would he want to date other girls?"

Shao Ziyang rolled his eyes at him: "It's common knowledge that Uncle Tan is a police officer at the Public Security Bureau; who would be crazy enough to harass her? You were also very well-behaved when you were chasing little Zhizhi."

Hu Jiahao gave a sheepish smile: "Who would dare not be well-behaved? Even Yang Tianxing is so well-behaved."

Fu Liwen asked from the side: "Who is that girl who was saved? I'm quite curious."

"Zheng Xuan, who was in the second year of high school then, and is in the third year now."

Shao Ziyang said.

"Zheng Xuan?"

Pan Ying said in surprise: "Oh my, she's my neighbor! So she was the person involved."

"Little Zhizhi, let me tell you, after you graduate, she'll be the school beauty of Jinzhou No. 1 High."

Not only that, Pan Ying also revealed an inside story: "But the strange thing is, she clearly has the grades to get into a first-tier university, yet her set goal is the second-tier Chang'an Finance College. Her mother is worried sick..."

Speaking of this, Pan Ying suddenly stopped. The group looked at each other; isn't Chang'an Finance College Yang Tianxing's school?

Hu Jiahao was a bit stunned: "Yang Tianxing has played a huge game of chess: hero saves the beauty, and then the beauty follows."

The others nodded along; it must be said, this script is quite interesting.

Tan Zhizhi said in a deep voice: "It's the 20th century now; we don't advocate for 'offering oneself in marriage' as repayment. Zheng's mother is too pedantic; I want to go and persuade her myself."

………………

Just as this group of Sherlocks was unraveling the mystery, Yang Tianxing was already chatting with Su Weiyu.

"What have you been busy with lately? Still hanging out on the streets?" Yang Tianxing asked.

Su Weiyu shook his head: "Just busy with nothing. I'm not like you guys who are university students with guaranteed jobs in the future."

Yang Tianxing smiled and didn't speak.

Su Weiyu suddenly asked: "What do you think of Chang'an?"

Yang Tianxing glanced at him: "Why, are you going to Chang'an?"

Su Weiyu nodded: "I have that thought. Next year I want to take Su Weilei to Chang'an to find some work."

Yang Tianxing pondered for a moment, then suddenly borrowed a piece of paper and a pen from the service desk and wrote down his mobile phone number: "I'm studying in Chang'an City. If you have time to go there in the future, you can look for me."

"It's still better to have money at home."

Su Weiyu couldn't help but sigh: "You can even buy a mobile phone while in college."

Yang Tianxing smoked: "I bought this with my own part-time work. I'll be able to pay my own tuition next year too."

Su Weiyu was stunned: "You can earn money while studying?"

Yang Tianxing didn't answer, intentionally leaving a thought, and pointed at Su Weilei: "Take your brother away first. With him there, my classmates don't dare to sit down."

Su Weiyu didn't insist; he thanked Yang Tianxing and left.

After the two of them went out, Su Weilei was very unhappy: "Why do you keep chatting with Yang Tianxing? You know I have a grudge against him."

Su Weiyu patted his shoulder: "He's a university student, and that whole group just now were university students."

Su Weilei was unconvinced: "What's so great about university students?"

"You've been beaten by a university student," Su Weiyu said.

"Brother, do you believe I can earn 1 million in the future?"

"You've been beaten by a university student."

"Brother, do you believe I can make a name for myself in the future?"

"You've been beaten by a university student."

"Brother, do you believe that I can do better than a university student in the future?"

"You were beaten by a university student."

Su Weiyu roared, "I know, I was beaten by a university student, you don't need to keep reminding me."

Only then did Su Weiyu stop talking and look at the slip of paper in his hand.

"What is this?"

Su Weilei leaned over and took a look.

"Yang Tianxing's mobile phone number; he told us to go find him in Chang'an later, maybe there's some way out."

"Pfft, what kind of way out could a university student have? He's probably just bragging."

Su Weilei said disdainfully, "Tear it up."

Actually, Su Weiyu didn't think it would be of any use either, but after thinking about it, he kept it anyway.

What if it comes in handy one day?
