Chapter 391: Chapter 391: Dispute

“Why?!” Huang Xiaolong said anxiously, “I don’t want to go. I… I just want to practice Sanda with you.”

Huang Xiaolong was completely unaware of the severity of his injuries. He had not considered that after his arm was broken, even if it healed, he would never be able to stand on the Sanda platform again in his life. Because once bones break, even if they heal, they can never regain their original toughness. There would still be a joint after healing, and it would inevitably fracture again under any external impact.

“Your hand is no longer suited for Sanda,” Chen Jiguang glanced at Huang Xiaolong and then said, “You will never be able to stand on the Sanda platform again in your lifetime. So, for the sake of your future, I have used my connections to secure you an opportunity to transfer departments. Cherish it well.”

“No!” Huang Xiaolong realized the gravity of the situation upon hearing this. He shook his head urgently, saying, “That’s impossible, Teacher Chen, this is impossible. You must be deceiving me, right?”

“Xiaolong, I am not deceiving you!” Chen Jiguang shook his head and then said, “This is the reality, you must accept it now, understand?”

“No, I don’t want to, I don’t want to!” Huang Xiaolong shook his head urgently, saying, “I want to continue learning Sanda, I want to stand on the international stage, prove myself, and bring glory to Shuimu University. Teacher Chen, you can’t give up on me. There must still be a way, right?”

Chen Jiguang saw his once most proud disciple now in such a state, and he felt very sad inside. He had never imagined that such a promising student would end up like this. It was too upsetting, too heartbreaking.

Chen Jiguang clenched his fists, always treating Huang Xiaolong as if he were his own son. He never expected things to turn out this way. How could this man, who was a teacher, a master, and a father-figure, not feel sad?

“Don’t worry,” Chen Jiguang smiled slightly and said, “I will surely avenge you.”

“I don’t want revenge, I want to stand up again, I want to continue learning Sanda,” said Huang Xiaolong, as frantic as a trapped beast. He struggled wildly, wishing he could jump up right away. Alas, he simply could not.

Chen Jiguang immediately walked over, then pressed on Huang Xiaolong’s chest and said earnestly, “Xiaolong, accept the reality. You can no longer practice Sanda. Your arm was broken, and even if it heals, if it ever bears too much force again, it will break anew. That’s not what you want to see, is it?”

“I…” Huang Xiaolong stared at Chen Jiguang, his face a picture of helplessness as he said, “My greatest wish in life was to stand on the world stage just once and win a championship. Then make my parents proud of me. But, after all these years of hard training, and all the hardships my parents have endured for me, I have to give up halfway. Teacher Chen, I… I really don’t want to, I really don’t!”

“There’s nothing you can do even if you don’t want to!” Chen Jiguang gritted his teeth and then said, “Life is like this. You should learn to cherish yourself, as well as your family. Don’t worry, if Xiao Han dared to break your arm, I will break his leg. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.”

“Teacher Chen!” Huang Xiaolong looked at Chen Jiguang, tears welling up in his eyes. Indeed, he was very upset and conflicted. Especially seeing Chen Jiguang seeking revenge for him, his heart was instantly overwhelmed with emotion. He wept out of gratitude, “You are like my father, I have always regarded you as my father.”

“Silly boy!” Chen Jiguang also felt somewhat emotional.

A good child, just like that, was ruined by someone.

The moment the incident occurred, Chen Jiguang quickly learned of the situation and immediately sought out Chen Aiguo, hoping for some action to be taken against Xiao Han. However, Chen Aiguo seemed somewhat inclined to favor Xiao Han and refused to punish him, citing provocations from the Physical Education Department.

Over the years, the Physical Education Department had indeed been quite rampant. Acting as the bully’s accomplice, they used their fists to bully students and intimidate younger female students, which progressively worsened the atmosphere at Shuimu University. Consequently, the department’s reputation also deteriorated significantly. As principal, he definitely needed to understand and investigate this matter. Unfortunately, Chen Aiguo could not directly impose any measures. After all, he was the principal, and any action required a process.

Who expected that before Chen Aiguo could take any measures, this incident occurred.

…………

In Chen Aiguo’s office,

Lan Yudie and the Head of the Academic Guidance Office were sitting upright inside. Such a big incident had happened; the class leader of the Sanda class, Chen Jiguang’s proud disciple, had his arm broken by someone, risking the destruction of his entire life, and most likely never having a chance to compete in Sanda again. For anyone, this was a devastating blow.

“Let’s discuss, what should we do about this?” Chen Aiguo sat in his chair, tapping his legs.

Chen Aiguo was smoking, the office filled with swirling smoke.

Lan Yudie seemed very nervous. For her, since Xiao Han was her student, she had to take joint responsibility for his actions. Lan Yudie had never imagined that such a huge incident would occur overnight, with Xiao Han being the main conspirator this time.

The most crucial point was that this incident wasn’t about one or two individuals, but involved hundreds from two different departments engaging in a mass brawl. The severity of the issue could be seen as significant and yet not so significant at the same time.

“Principal Chen, this incident is entirely the responsibility of the Physical Education Department,” Lan Yudie began by shifting the blame immediately, firmly asserting the other party’s responsibility, and then added, “For this incident, I specifically checked the school forum, and it was the people from the Physical Education Department who were provoking us, deliberately causing trouble for our Finance Department. Therefore, I think that the Physical Education Department should bear the responsibility.”

The assistant director of the Physical Education Department responded, “Teacher Lan, it takes two hands to clap; this issue can’t solely be blamed on our department. If your Finance Department hadn’t been involved, could our PE Department have found someone else in the school to fight?”

The students from the Physical Education Department tended to be more thuggish, and even its teachers and leaders appeared somewhat thuggish and domineering. Their tone of speaking was entirely different from others.

Upon hearing this, Lan Yudie immediately became furious and hastily said, “Director Liu, you can’t bully me, a weak woman, especially with the principal here.”

“Teacher Lan, I’m just being factual,” Director Liu retorted, “What I’m saying is true. Huang Xiaolong’s arm was broken by Xiao Han, essentially ruining his life. He was Chen Jiguang’s star pupil, meant to be propelled onto the international stage for competitions. Now, he’s been ruined by Xiao Han. Tell me, what should we do about this? If we really talk about it, this is indeed a case of intentional assault. I think we should call the police.”

“No!” Lan Yudie immediately rebuked.

As soon as the discussion turned to calling the police, Lan Yudie became anxious; once they called the police, Xiao Han would definitely be arrested. If they pursued his responsibility, Xiao Han would inevitably be detained. Then, even an immortal couldn’t save Xiao Han. Thus, Lan Yudie had to intercept this matter.

“Why not?” Director Liu asked, “Xiao Han intentionally harmed someone, and we should call the police. Let the law determine his responsibility!”

“Director Liu, in doing this, you’ll not only ruin Huang Xiaolong, but you’ll also destroy Xiao Han!” Lan Yudie urgently replied.

“What does that have to do with us?” Director Liu looked at her disdainfully, then said, “Xiao Han is from your Finance Department, and what I’m discussing is this issue of Huang Xiaolong’s arm being broken. This is an illegal matter, and also a criminal offense. Intentionally harming someone should indeed be subject to legal accountability!”

Lan Yudie became even more anxious: “To pursue legal accountability, we must also pursue Huang Xiaolong’s legal accountability!”

“Right!” Director Liu nodded, then added, “Legal responsibilities should be pursued for both. Huang Xiaolong was at most involved in a mass brawl. But Xiao Han is different; he broke Huang Xiaolong’s arm, which constitutes intentional injury and should face criminal charges.”

“You!” Lan Yudie was so agitated that her face turned red.

“Enough!” Chen Aiguo shook his head, then said, “Stop arguing.”

“Principal Chen, you tell us, what should we do about this?” Lan Yudie eagerly asked.

“Well…” Chen Aiguo smiled, then said, “I have heard your perspectives. You are all considering your own students. Little Liu wants justice for Huang Xiaolong. And Xiao Lan wants to protect Xiao Han and uphold the reputation of the Finance Department. But, have you considered the school?”

Everyone was stunned.

“One of you is advocating for the Physical Education Department, and the other for the Finance Department, but both of these departments are part of Shuimu University.” Chen Aiguo slowly stood up, then continued, “You should be working together in one direction to uphold the school’s reputation. Understand?”

“Yes, yes!” Director Liu immediately nodded in agreement.

“Principal Chen, I am not only upholding the reputation of the Finance Department but also maintaining the school’s reputation!” Lan Yudie pursed her lips, then said, “I think this matter should be handled internally by our school, there’s absolutely no need to call the police. Once we involve the police, the incident of this brawl will definitely be exposed. The outside world is already dissatisfied with Shuimu University’s discipline and morals. If it gets sensationalized by the external media, it could severely damage our school’s reputation!”

“Hmm!” Chen Aiguo nodded, “You’re right; that’s indeed the case. In my view, let’s handle this matter internally. The situation is rather complex now. Huang Xiaolong’s condition has already improved somewhat—the arm is salvaged, but his career in combat sports is doomed. The Chen family has already made demands, asking for the school to compensate five hundred thousand and to transfer Huang Xiaolong to a different department for further studies.”
