Chapter 786 -324 Anecdote of the County Town (Break until tomorrow’s update, proceed with caution)
Peng Xiaoyong is not the type to meddle in other people’s business, but seeing his cousin looking like she’s being bullied would make anyone frown: “Yilin?”
Shrinking in the corner, Liu Yilin raised her head. Sure enough, it wasn’t someone else—it was her cousin.
At 26 years old, Peng Xiaoyong had a somewhat mature appearance. His outfit leaned toward business attire, complemented by black-rimmed glasses. He furrowed his brows and walked over, glancing at the weirdly dressed delinquent girls and then at his cousin who clearly came from an honest household. Peng Xiaoyong couldn’t understand why his cousin would associate with such unrespectable people, and he really disliked them. Addressing Liu Yilin, he said: “The college entrance exam is coming up. You still have the energy to come here and sing? Don’t you have class today?”
In Su Bei’s education system, time was always compressed. Especially in senior year, there wasn’t even a concept of winter break. Students generally only had half a day off each week. During the winter holiday, starting from New Year’s Eve, students could rest for five days. By seven o’clock on the fifth day, they were already expected to attend self-study sessions at school.
Peng Xiaoyong himself grew up under such high-pressure education, so he couldn’t fathom why Liu Yilin would be here.
“I…,” Liu Yilin stammered, unable to get the words out.
Peng Xiaoyong grabbed his cousin’s wrist: “Come with me. I’m taking you home.”
Saying this, Peng Xiaoyong was about to drag Liu Yilin away.
“Hey, uncle, who the hell are you? What business is it of yours?”
Seeing Peng Xiaoyong trying to take Liu Yilin away, the blonde delinquent girl instantly grew irritated, blocking his way and even shoving him.
“?”
This caught Peng Xiaoyong off guard. He glanced at the blonde delinquent girl in front of him.
In small towns like this, there were always plenty of malnourished, reckless local girls—fearless and completely dismissive of people like Peng Xiaoyong.
Not wanting to get tangled up with them, Peng Xiaoyong straightforwardly said, “She’s my cousin, and I’m taking her with me now.”
“You’re at the age to study. Hanging out here like this every day—aren’t you ashamed of yourselves? How can you face your parents!?” Peng Xiaoyong declared righteously.
However, the group of delinquent girls couldn’t keep themselves from bursting into laughter.
Face their parents?
Uncle, are you a schoolteacher?
Whether I face my parents or not, that’s none of your damn business!
The blonde delinquent laughed so hard her stomach hurt, saying, “Uncle, stop being nosy!”
“Liu Yilin, you decide now—either today you agree to be my brother’s girlfriend, or I’ll make sure your reputation is destroyed at school! Don’t think I’m bluffing!” The blonde delinquent said this with sincerity.
The more Peng Xiaoyong listened, the deeper his frown grew.
The worst part was that his cousin actually seemed scared.
How could this not make Peng Xiaoyong angry? He wanted to get Liu Yilin out first and then ask what was going on.
But who could’ve guessed—seeing Peng Xiaoyong about to use force,
The blonde delinquent wasn’t scared at all, and instead, she outright blocked Peng Xiaoyong with her body: “What the hell are you doing!? Did I say you could leave!?”
Her voice was cocky.
She was frail, whereas Peng Xiaoyong stood 175 centimeters tall and, wearing heavy winter clothing, looked relatively solid. As he tussled with the blonde delinquent, his brows furrowed as he scolded, “Get out of the way!”
With a bit more force, he accidentally pushed the blonde delinquent to the ground.
“?”
The incident happened so suddenly that Peng Xiaoyong hadn’t planned to use physical force. At this moment, he froze.
The girl who’d been pushed to the ground was stunned for a moment as well, but she quickly became furious: “Fuck your mother!”
She immediately got up and slapped Peng Xiaoyong straight across the face.
The slap rang out loud and clear, leaving Peng Xiaoyong’s face red.
In his wildest dreams, Peng Xiaoyong never imagined that a delinquent girl would slap him—let alone that this slap was just the beginning.
These delinquent girls truly feared nothing and no one. With a yell, three others all rushed at him.
At first, Peng Xiaoyong only defended himself, but eventually, he grew frustrated with their antics and threw a heavy punch.
One punch—knocked out!
The loudest blonde delinquent girl was sent straight to the ground.
The corridor they were in wasn’t very crowded, but the commotion had already drawn a lot of onlookers from afar.
“What kind of man are you, huh!? Hitting women, you piece of shit!”
“Let go!”
Now, Peng Xiaoyong was really in trouble. Initially, he wanted to leave, but the delinquent girls turned out to be even more troublesome than he’d anticipated. Even after being knocked down, the blonde girl clung to his leg with a death grip, refusing to let go.
Meanwhile, another girl, noticing things weren’t working out, ran back to call for reinforcements without a second thought.
Peng Xiaoyong looked at the brat clinging tightly to his leg. He demanded she let go, but she refused. Feeling a trace of anger, he couldn’t help but think—how could society harbor such parasites? They should be eradicated!
With that thought, a glimmer of hostility flashed in his eyes as he mustered his strength, preparing to give the girl a hard slap!
Shameless girl, daring to hit me?
Just as Peng Xiaoyong was about to strike,
a sudden shout rang out: “Who the fuck hit my sister!?”
From seemingly nowhere, four or five more similarly oddly dressed thugs showed up. Leading the pack was a buzz-cut fat guy with a scar on his face, looking rather stocky.
Seeing him approach, the girl clutching Peng Xiaoyong’s leg went crazy and shouted, “It’s him, bro! He hit me!”
She then dashed behind the fat guy.
Peng Xiaoyong looked at the group across from him—they were all teenage boys. The fat guy dressed a bit more normally and appeared older than the others. Perhaps he’d be more reasonable, or so Peng Xiaoyong hoped.
