Zhang Yong, if you really get to know him, you would find that he actually has quite a pleasant personality.

Seeing Chen Hai’s expression, he spoke with a complicated look on his face and gently reminded, “Brother Hai, if you really have a conflict with Liu Jian, I suggest you hold back your anger for now!”

“The Liu Family, not to mention you and me, no one in the entire Wuyang Town can afford to provoke them!”

“Just getting beaten up is the lesser evil, carelessly losing your life is also not impossible!”

…

Although the things Zhang Yong knew were merely hearsay, they at least gave Chen Hai a rough idea about Liu Jian’s background.

He clearly remembered that Dean Zhu had called the other party Secretary Liu during the phone call.

Comparing the two, he felt even more certain about the accuracy of his own guess.

“I’m not one who likes to cause trouble, why would I have any conflict with Liu Jian?”

“Zhang Yong, don’t overthink it, I was just a bit curious about Liu Jian, that’s why I asked!”

Chen Hai’s furrowed brows quickly relaxed, and he smiled slightly as he spoke.

Some things, he knew, it was enough to keep to himself.

Zhang Yong, standing before him, was just an ordinary young man who had just graduated from high school, knowing too much would bear no benefits for him.

After chatting idly with Zhang Yong for a while, the two parted ways.

Zhang Yong returned to the arcade, while Chen Hai, without much consideration, directly boarded a bus heading to Liuyuan County.

Thwarting someone’s future is no different from killing their parents.

So what if the Liu Family in Wuyang Town could cover the sky with one hand?

Ordinary people can’t afford to offend them, but Chen Hai, having succeeded in Tao Cultivation, had long stepped out of the bounds of ordinary people.

With this belief in his heart, after arriving in Liuyuan County, Chen Hai rented a room temporarily at a place named Wu Jiao Hua Hostel, near the crossroads where Jinyuan Hotel was located.

Apart from going out to eat something, he didn’t go anywhere else that day, focusing solely on resting and gathering energy in his room.

Jinyuan Hotel, affiliated with the food system, was the first upscale hotel in Liuyuan County.

In terms of the time it was established, this hotel was built two years earlier than Garden Hotel.

The next day, just past ten in the morning.

[Warmly Celebrate the Beloved Son, Liu Jian, For Getting into Capital Political and Legal University…]

A banner was already hanging outside the hotel’s dining hall.

Chen Hai, just coming out from Wu Jiao Hua Hostel across the street, glanced coldly at the banner.

With an expressionless face, he stepped slowly into the hotel lobby.

“Jian, you’ve been silent for three years, but this is a remarkable achievement!”

“Capital Political and Legal University, though not as prestigious as Tsinghua University and Peking University, is still a top-tier institution.

Getting in there, Jian, you are incredible!”

The speaker even deliberately gave a thumbs up.

“This time in the college entrance exam, I made some mistakes; I was planning to score over six hundred, but ended up with just five hundred seventy-six!”

“Not making it to Tsinghua University and Peking University is a bit regrettable.

I was thinking about retaking the exam next year, but then I thought, better not!”

“After all, for a young person like me, time is money.”

“Capital Political and Legal University, though slightly inferior, but with my talents and abilities, which university I attend hardly matters!”

…

Although it was still early, the hall had already seen quite a few visitors.

Dressed in a suit and looking like a refined gentleman, Liu Jian was boastfully speaking with great fervor.

Surrounded by a crowd, he was noticeably conspicuous.

As soon as Chen Hai entered the dining hall, his sharp gaze, like a knife, immediately fell upon Liu Jian.

“Liu Jian, if bragging were illegal, that speech you just gave would get you at least ten years!”

“Choosing ‘A’ for every single-answer question and ‘ABCD’ for every multiple-choice question, do you really not know how you got that score of 576?”

“Let’s not beat around the bush; if this year’s college entrance exam paper were reprinted and placed in front of you, if you could score 400, I’d take your surname!”

Once he confirmed Liu Jian’s identity, a boundless rage surged in Chen Hai’s heart.

At this moment, he could no longer hold back and parted the crowd within a few steps, quickly approaching Liu Jian and pointing at him fiercely.

“Chen Hai, how could you show up here?”

With his face alternating between green and white, Liu Jian was clearly taken aback.

Choosing to host the academic celebratory banquet at Jinyuan Hotel in the county city instead of Wuyang Town.

Aside from the fact that the county city is more bustling, it wasn’t without reason that they wanted to avoid Chen Hai a bit.

At this moment, Chen Hai’s sudden appearance caught Liu Jian completely off guard, leaving him at a loss for what to do.

“Who are you?

Who allowed you to be here?”

“You can eat whatever, but you mustn’t speak recklessly.

You say our Jian’s exam scores are fraudulent; do you have evidence?”

“Without evidence, that’s slander.

Do you believe that with one phone call, I can have you locked up for a few days?”

With a righteous face and an imposing aura, Liu Dagui, upon seeing the unexpected scene, quickly walked over.

Compared to Liu Jian, his father, Liu Dagui, spoke and acted with noticeably more cunning.

As soon as he spoke, he had already pinned the charge of defamation on Chen Hai.

“Dad, this is my roommate, Chen Hai…”

Seeing Liu Dagui arrive, Liu Jian, as if seeing a savior, quickly spoke up to explain.

“So, you are Chen Hai!”

“I know that you and our Jian have a misunderstanding, but what’s the point of causing trouble at his academic celebration banquet?”

“If there’s a misunderstanding, just clear it up.

If you have any requests, just speak directly to me!”

“Third brother, come here, take this young man to the private room.

I need to have a good talk with him!”

Perhaps due to being accustomed to a position of authority, the words that Liu Dagui casually uttered carried an undeniable air of command.

This ‘Third Brother’ he referred to was naturally Liu Jian’s uncle, Liu Dafa.

This man appeared thin and had a decent face, but he exuded an indescribable fierce quality.

Chen Hai slightly closed his eyes and sensed with his Divine Soul, and on Liu Dafa, he saw a dense circle of Blood Evil Qi surrounding him.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that even ghosts fear the wicked.

Chen Hai tried to plant a few yin qi marks on Liu Dafa, but with that layer of Blood Evil Qi around, Chen Hai’s yin qi marks, no sooner had they approached him, were immediately dissolved.

“Come on, young man, follow us to the private room and let’s have a good chat.”

Liu Dafa waved his hand, and the men who had come with him grabbed Chen Hai’s arms, pulling him towards a nearby private room.

Chen Hai did not resist, not only because he could not, but he also wanted to see, in this matter, what exactly the Liu family’s stance was.
