316: Chapter 315: I Am Making You Face Reality!
Zhu Ba was quite infamous in their area, of course for all the wrong reasons.
This man was no pushover, and with Ning Fan having beaten his men, this bastard surely wouldn’t let things slide.
Aunt Yun was afraid that in the end, Zhu Ba, with his many connections and someone backing him up, would put Ning Fan at a disadvantage.
Meanwhile, the old principal also came over, worry evident in his gaze as he looked at Ning Fan, “Xiao Fan, why don’t you go back first?
We’ll hold the fort here.
Thank you so much for what you did today!”
Ning Fan shook his head, looking solemnly at everyone as he said, “No, I won’t leave until Zhu Ba’s issue is resolved.
I will take care of this matter; our village’s children can’t be left without a school to attend!”
The resolute figure of Ning Fan inspired many around him, and at this moment, they all looked at him excitedly.
“Zhu Ba is nothing to worry about; you all shouldn’t fear when the time comes, I will shoulder everything!”
Ning Fan had returned because he was concerned about everyone in the village, and now that he knew about Zhu Ba’s plan to demolish the school, he certainly couldn’t just stand by and watch.
He not only wanted to intervene, but he also wanted to handle the situation well, at the very least making Zhu Ba and his gang afraid to mess with Xiao Gu Village again.
The old principal was teary-eyed by now, moved to the point where he didn’t know what to say.
Aunt Yun looked at Ning Fan, her beautiful eyes full of admiration; this young man truly was a hero ready to stand up against the sky.
Zhang Shiya, who had once had a misunderstanding with Ning Fan, now gazed at him with admiration in her eyes.
Thinking back to the incident in the grove, her cheeks reddened once more.
It was then that Liu Dashun approached, supporting the tearful old principal, and after casting an admiring glance at Ning Fan, he said to the old man, “Uncle, don’t worry.
With Brother Ning here, our school is definitely not a place where Zhu Ba and his ilk can run wild!”
At this time, everyone began to express their admiration; with Ning Fan there, he had become the backbone of the group, calming their worries greatly.
After Ning Fan said a few more words, everyone at the school gate voluntarily went into the campus, beginning to tidy up the mess the thugs had made.
Just as Ning Fan was about to leave, he noticed Liu Dashun’s unusual expression.
His face was downcast, a look of dejection in his eyes.
Ning Fan sighed, walked over to him, and asked softly, “Dashun, do you regret it?”
Liu Dashun lifted his head but didn’t immediately answer Ning Fan.
Did he regret what had just happened?
To be honest, Liu Dashun did like Zhao Lili, and having broken up with her, his heart was indeed downcast.
“I… don’t regret it!”
Liu Dashun hesitated for a moment, then replied resolutely in the end.
Ning Fan was like a brother to him, as well as his lifesaver; Liu Dashun wouldn’t allow anyone to insult him.
Zhao Lili had brought it upon herself.
Seeing the determined expression on Liu Dashun’s face, Ning Fan patted his shoulder.
However, just then, Liu Dashun’s expression suddenly became agitated.
A figure he knew all too well was slowly approaching from afar.
Noticing his agitated expression, Ning Fan curiously followed his gaze, and when he saw Zhao Lili returning, Ning Fan was quite surprised.
Zhao Lili had actually come back?
What was she doing here?
At this moment, Ning Fan was somewhat puzzled about what the woman was thinking, only to see her face dark and her eyes filled with a tinge of resentment, causing him to involuntarily furrow his brows.
Zhao Lili’s return this time was probably not that simple.
But Liu Dashun didn’t think as much as Ning Fan did; seeing Zhao Lili back, Liu Dashun even thought Zhao Lili had changed her mind, that she had had a change of heart.
So Liu Dashun greeted her with a smile, “Lili, you’re back!”
Zhao Lili looked at Liu Dashun, who had approached her, with cold indifference and, without saying anything, simply pushed him away.
Liu Dashun wasn’t angry, just assuming Zhao Lili was still in a little snit, so he asked calmly again, “Lili, why are you back?”
Zhao Lili looked at Liu Dashun with derision and sneered, “Humph, don’t misunderstand, I didn’t come back for you.
I’m here just to enjoy a good show!”
Liu Dashun was stunned and asked subconsciously, “What do you mean?”
“Liu Dashun, you dared to hit me for such a country bumpkin?
I came back just to let you see the reality!”
Zhao Lili coldly regarded Liu Dashun, her return was certainly not about admitting wrongs; she didn’t think she had made any mistake.
The ones who were wrong should be Ning Fan and Liu Dashun.
Not far away, Ning Fan, too, realized that trouble was likely to ensue.
Sure enough, Zhao Lili said with a cold laugh, “Zhu Ba’s men are already here, and I want to see how your so-called Brother Ning dies!”
Liu Dashun’s eyes widened, while Ning Fan had anticipated this.
After hearing Zhao Lili’s words, Liu Dashun’s face went completely dark, and he looked at Zhao Lili, trembling with anger, unable to utter a single word.
Zhao Lili laughed, a laugh full of happiness, as if Liu Dashun’s growing anger only heightened her sense of vengeful satisfaction.
“Liu Dashun, let me tell you, I came back this time just to make you understand, for such a country bumpkin, was offending Zhu Ba worth it?”
A trace of a cold smirk played at the corner of Zhao Lili’s mouth.
In her eyes, Ning Fan was easily dismissed as a country bumpkin, and Liu Dashun, having offended Zhu Ba for such a person, it simply wasn’t worth it.
This return, Zhao Lili intended to make Liu Dashun regret and to beg her for forgiveness.
“When Zhu Ba arrives, what use will your Brother Ning be?!”
Zhao Lili readied herself with glee to watch the drama unfold, while Liu Dashun glared at her, lifting his hand as if he was about to slap Zhao Lili.
But Zhao Lili was not afraid this time either; she even stretched her face forward, “Liu Dashun, go on, hit me, if you’ve got the guts, do it!”
Liu Dashun gritted his teeth but finally lowered his hand.
“Hahaha, Liu Dashun, you’re scared, aren’t you?
You don’t dare hit me.
When Zhu Ba comes, you’ll regret it, and even if you kneel down and beg me this time, I won’t forgive you!”
“Zhao Lili, shut your mouth!” Liu Dashun shouted.
The former lovers were now quarreling endlessly, and the commotion they caused finally attracted everyone on campus.
“Ha, I’m just here for a good show.
Just wait, all of you, none of you will get away, not even you, Liu Dashun!”
Zhao Lili looked at the crowd at the school gate with disdain, and at the same time, a cloud of dust rose at the far end of the village path, with the sound of roaring engines growing louder.
Three black jeeps were then seen approaching this way.
