Chapter 958 — Swear on the Wheelchair
With that, Zhao Qibing yanked up the hem of his robe, bit down on it, and sat down in the wheelchair behind him.
"But..." How would Li Cihua dare to do it?
"Hurry it up. My time is limited. If you don't do it, one kick from me and it'll be a comminuted fracture!" Wei Zhao said impatiently.
"Cihua, do it. That's an order!" Zhao Qibing shuddered and hastily commanded Li Cihua.
Li Cihua had no choice. Gritting his teeth, he raised the iron rod and brought it down on Zhao Qibing's left leg. With a crack, accompanied by Zhao Qibing's scream, the left leg broke.
Li Cihua, gathering his momentum, raised the iron rod again and smashed it down on Zhao Qibing's right leg. Another crack, and the right leg broke as well.
Zhao Qibing was in agony, on the verge of rolling around on the floor.
"Remember to transfer the money. Oh, and one leg would have been enough. Why did you break both?" Wei Zhao shrugged and turned to leave the Geli Fuyun Bar.
"This..." Li Cihua was startled, and he hated Wei Zhao to the bone. Why hadn't he said so earlier? He hadn't broken both of Zhao Qibing's legs at once, but one after the other — and Wei Zhao had waited until he was finished to speak up. Wasn't that deliberate? And when Young Master Bing laid the blame later...
"Wei Zhao, I, Zhao Qibing, swear on this wheelchair: if I don't kill you, my name isn't Zhao!" Zhao Qibing, enduring the pain, waited until Wei Zhao had left before speaking viciously: "You mark my words — I, Zhao Qibing, keep my word!"
"Young Master Bing, I'm sorry... I..." Li Cihua hurried to apologize for breaking both of Zhao Qibing's legs.
"It's not your fault!" Zhao Qibing waved a hand, rolled his eyes, and passed out cold...
After leaving the Geli Fuyun Bar, Wei Zhao did not head straight back to Gu Mengyao's villa. Instead he called Tang Yun. He had to explain things to her. Perhaps today's outcome would disappoint her, but Wei Zhao had no other choice. And in truth, he too was reluctant to part with the young miss and little Shu.
Their time together had not been long, but day in and day out, side by side, Wei Zhao had truly come to like them.
"Hello? Wei Zhao, are you on the train?" Tang Yun knew he should have left last night, but she had been afraid that if she went to see him off, someone with ill intentions might notice. Better that Wei Zhao slip away quietly, unseen by his enemies.
"No, I'm in Songshan City," Wei Zhao said.
"You didn't leave?" Tang Yun was slightly taken aback. "What's wrong? What happened?"
"Where are you? Let's talk in person," Wei Zhao said with a faint sigh.
"I'm at school. It's the lunch break right now," Tang Yun said.
"Then I'll come to the school now." Wei Zhao turned the car around and headed toward the school.
Zhong Yongliang and Gao Xiaofu had just come out of a restaurant by the school gate. Although the school had covered up his crime for him back then, even so, Zhong Yongliang and Gao Xiaofu did not quite dare go to the cafeteria anymore. The cafeteria chef knew what had really happened, and if he let something slip, that would be the end of it!
So every day at noon they went to a nearby restaurant for lunch. Given Zhong Yongliang's family circumstances, he could afford it.
"Hey? Brother Liang, isn't that Wei Zhao?" Gao Xiaofu suddenly pointed into the distance and cried out in surprise.
"Wei Zhao?" Zhong Yongliang was startled. Following the direction of Gao Xiaofu's finger, he could not help but look up — and sure enough, there was Wei Zhao getting out of a yellow Beetle!
"How does he still dare come to school? Haven't the Yu family, the Xiao family, and Zhao Qibing's people finished him off yet?" Gao Xiaofu said, puzzled.
"Yeah, what's he doing at school at a time like this? Instead of hiding, he dares show up in public?" Zhong Yongliang frowned at once.
"Brother Liang, how about we go give him some trouble?" Gao Xiaofu suggested, itching to try.
"Give him trouble? Are you stupid? Wei Zhao dares come to school at a time like this — there's got to be something behind it!" Zhong Yongliang was no longer the reckless, brainless Zhong Yongliang of before. Having been through great joy and great sorrow, he had evolved into a high-IQ Zhong Yongliang. "Wait while I ask my dad!"
"Okay!" Gao Xiaofu shrank his neck and nodded.
Zhong Yongliang called Zhong Fabai, who picked up: "Hello? Pinliang, is something the matter?"
"Dad, I want to ask you something. Did the Xiao family, the Yu family, and Young Master Bing all go to make trouble for Gu Pengzhan?" Zhong Yongliang asked. "I saw Wei Zhao come to school..."
"Pinliang, whatever you do, don't provoke Wei Zhao, you hear me? Absolutely not!" Zhong Fabai was startled the moment he heard his son's words, and hurried to tell him.
"What's going on?" Zhong Yongliang was stunned.
"You don't know? The people from the Yu family and the Xiao family — Wei Zhao beat them all to death! And just now, Wei Zhao came back from Young Master Bing's place. Not only did he injure the Medicine King, he broke both of Young Master Bing's legs! And he made Young Master Bing pay him a hundred and fifty million!" Zhong Fabai said hurriedly.
"My god, really?" Zhong Yongliang was alarmed. "Wei Zhao even dared to kill people from the Xiao and Yu families?"
"Never mind the Xiao and Yu families — even Young Master Bing has no temper left, and he still had to pay Wei Zhao compensation?" Zhong Fabai said with a bitter smile. "This Wei Zhao, playing the pig to eat the tiger — his strength never disappeared at all. And today he finally showed his true colors..."
"This Wei Zhao is that vicious and underhanded?" Zhong Yongliang could not help but marvel inwardly. It seemed he really had been wise not to go looking for trouble with Wei Zhao — otherwise he would have died without even knowing how.
"Yeah. Let's not talk about it now, I'm busy here!" Zhong Fabai said. "Just remember not to provoke Wei Zhao!"
"I know!" Zhong Yongliang nodded, hung up, and relayed his father's words to Gao Xiaofu. "See that? I told you we couldn't go make trouble for Wei Zhao. Now do you see how wise I was?"
"Yeah, Brother Liang, you're the wise one!" Hearing Zhong Yongliang's words, Gao Xiaofu could not help but feel a chill of fear in hindsight. Earlier he had wanted to follow the crowd and go make trouble for Wei Zhao; now it seemed not going had truly been the right call. "Brother Liang, your IQ is soaring straight up now — you're not the Zhong Yongliang you used to be!"
"Of course! Let me tell you, to be a villain, you need brains!" Zhong Yongliang nodded smugly. "Wei Zhao has a kind of brains too, but his brains are only good enough to fool the Xiao family, the Yu family, and Young Master Bing. Compared with me, Zhong Yongliang, he's still a notch below!"
"That's right. If Wei Zhao weren't so monstrously strong, how could he ever be a match for you, Brother Liang?" Gao Xiaofu nodded and praised him repeatedly. "When Naipao comes down from the mountain, you and Naipao — one the scholar, one the warrior — then what will Wei Zhao amount to?"
