Chapter 580: Chapter 576: Climb by Yourself or Be Carried Over?

(Another week begins, and I continue to ask for some recommendation tickets, monthly tickets ^^!)

————————————————————————————

But they forgot that Xiao Yi clearly hadn’t. As he watched the final scene of victory freeze on screen, Xiao Yi slowly stood up, his eyes faintly squinting and his face wearing a mild smile. He looked at the stock-still Fatty Wang opposite him and his buddies who had turned deathly pale, speaking in a gentle tone, "According to our agreement, we don’t need to continue with the next two items, do we? Best two out of three, and it seems you’ve already lost, so..."

What "so" implied went unsaid by Xiao Yi, but the expression on his face and the implication in his words were understood by everyone; it was time for the bet to be honored...

And as if fearing that they wouldn’t understand, Xiaohu, who had finally snapped back to reality, excitedly finished Xiao Yi’s sentence, "You’ve made the bet, now you have to lie in it, Fatty Wang. Next, you don’t need us to tell you what to do, right? Barking like a dog, crawling like one, you should know all that, right?"

"Hehe, if you don’t know how, we’ll gladly teach you until you do!"

"Haha, that stuff, even kids know how to do. Young Master Wang is so awesome; of course, he knows. He’s definitely the most skilled, no need for your guidance..."

"......"

The group behind Xiaohu also returned to their senses, bursting into laughter. They felt an unparalleled thrill; this group usually strutted around the school like they were something special, and they had long wanted to bring them down a notch, but the harsh reality was that neither their personal ability nor their family background allowed them to offend these guys. With this opportunity at hand, naturally, no one wanted to waste it.

"Hmph, Xiaohu, don’t go too far!"

Fatty Wang remained silent, lips pursed, face an iron shade of blue, his eyes showing a tinge of fear. At that moment, he finally felt a sensation of fear. With his status, if he really crawled around the basketball court and barked like a dog, could he still hang around afterward?

But if he didn’t crawl, it seemed for the moment there was no plausible excuse he could find. Fair is fair in a bet, and even if he had the thickest face, it would still be embarrassing to refuse outright or try anything shady.

While he hesitated, a youth behind him had already stood up to speak for him, his face carrying a hint of viciousness and warning, "Don’t forget what kind of person Young Master Wang is!"

Upon hearing these words, Xiaohu and his classmates couldn’t help but hesitate. They were correct; Young Master Wang’s status was indeed not ordinary. Not to mention him, even the other youths who followed him were no small fry.

If they really made them crawl, that would be deeply offending them. What consequences would they face then? They didn’t know; they might even be expelled. They were already fed up with being treated poorly; in their hearts, they longed for equality, justice, fairness... Even expulsion wouldn’t matter much to them, but they had become sensible and thought of their parents and what they would go through if they were expelled...

Hearing his buddy’s words, Fatty Wang’s face visibly relaxed, especially when he saw the hesitation on Xiaohu’s face; a smug look crossed Fatty Wang’s face as he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Hmph, even if he lost, what could these poor kids do to him? Unless they no longer wanted to get by in life!

A sneer of self-satisfaction echoed in Fatty Wang’s heart.

"Too far? We made a bet; isn’t it only right to honor it?"

Xiao Yi’s smile grew even brighter, his squinted eyes fixed on the youth who had just spoken.

As the youth felt Xiao Yi’s gaze upon him, even though Xiao Yi’s eyes were always slightly narrowed and he still wore a smile, for some reason, the youth suddenly felt a chill go down his spine, fear manifesting sharply on his face as he turned pale, wanting to say something but finding himself unable to utter a word.

"Look, my friend, kids can be unreasonable; it was just a joke, let’s not take it seriously. How about this, let’s call it a chance encounter. I’ll host dinner tonight for everyone; how does that sound?"

The internet cafe owner, already somewhat familiar with Fatty Wang and his party and aware of their identities and backgrounds, heard Xiao Yi’s words and glanced at Fatty Wang before stepping in with a chuckle, trying to break the tension.

"This has nothing to do with you, best get out of the way."

Situ Qingfeng’s face turned cold, his eyes icy.

Who is Situ Qingfeng? A legendary figure in the domestic crime-fighting scene, and even someone of significant stature in the international crime investigation community. Could his eyes be easily deceived? With just a turn of the internet cafe owner’s gaze, he had already guessed what was going on.

Just a joke?

If Xiao Yi had lost this time, would he still say that?

Hmph, did he really think that he, Situ Qingfeng, was easy to manipulate?

"If Xiao Yi lost today, then so be it, but since Xiao Yi won, then that fatso, no matter who he is, must keep his promise. Today, whether he likes it or not, he’d better crawl!"

"Hmph, he actually dared to act tough in front of Situ Qingfeng, more arrogant and overbearing than him, it’s simply outrageous..."

"If I don’t teach him a lesson, would I still be Situ Qingfeng? Where would I put my face?"

This time, Xiao Yi didn’t go to pull Situ Qingfeng back, but instead kept an almost smiling expression while staring at the fatty and his group of young lads.

"Brother, you’d best watch your words and not go too far. Leave some leeway, so we can meet again another day!"

The Internet cafe owner was also a streetwise person, and his family had some connections. He was acquainted with Fatty Wang and had some ties to their family as well. Having mixed in this area, he knew some of the local ruffians, and being the boss, on a regular basis, all the youngsters who came here to get online, who among them wouldn’t call him ’bro’ respectfully? When had anyone dared to speak to him like this?

As soon as he heard Situ Qingfeng’s words, his face instantly turned red, fluctuating between pale and flush, then he looked at Situ Qingfeng with a somewhat threatening tone.

Even though the Internet cafe owner was also rather burly, he didn’t seem weak compared to Situ Qingfeng, and after all, this was his turf. Didn’t he have some underlings here too? Otherwise, how could he bully those damn students?

"Brother? Pah! You think you’re worthy to call me brother?"

Situ Qingfeng’s gaze suddenly turned icy, his eyes sharp as knives, stabbing towards the Internet cafe owner. If it weren’t for Xiao Yi’s intercession, he almost would have gone up and slapped him!

Even though he didn’t strike, at that moment, everyone was shocked by Situ Qingfeng’s frightening aura. They sensed the terrifying and dangerous vibe emanating from him. Even Wang Xiaohu and his group were stunned.

They had not expected Big Brother Xiao’s friend, the amiable guy they had just been talking to, could have such a terrifying side.

The Internet cafe owner, caught off guard, stood motionless and confused looking at Situ Qingfeng.

"You little brats, are you going to crawl on your own, or shall I drag you there?"

Situ Qingfeng didn’t bother with the Internet cafe owner and instead focused his gaze directly on Fatty Wang and the other youngsters.

"Do you... do you have any idea who Young Master Wang is?"

Including Fatty Wang, all the young lads were quashed by Situ Qingfeng, a hint of fear on their faces. They might act all high and mighty among other students, but they were after all inexperienced kids. How could they have ever seen someone as ruthless as Situ Qingfeng?

Only after encountering Situ Qingfeng’s piercing look did one of the youngsters muster the courage to speak to him.

"Don’t start with this nonsense. Just tell me, are you going to move yourselves or shall I have to drag you?"

Situ Qingfeng waved his hand impatiently.

A cold sneer surfaced in his heart. These little bastards actually thought they could pressure him with their backgrounds? Hmph, at such a young age, they’re already not on the right path. If he didn’t teach them a harsh lesson today, he would no longer bear the name Situ!

By now, having been by Xiao Yi’s side for a long time and gaining a deep understanding of his character, he understood why Xiao Yi had agreed to the bet in the first place.

He guessed it was probably to teach these young rascals a lesson and to set them on the right path.

"Hmph, truly courting death!"

Seeing how arrogantly Situ Qingfeng spoke, the corners of the Internet cafe owner’s mouth lifted into a cold sneer. He huffed coldly in his heart and sneakily took out his phone, preparing to dial a number.

But before he could make the call, he felt his phone slip from his hand; it had already ended up in Situ Qingfeng’s possession.

"You... what are you doing, give me back my phone!"

The Internet cafe owner had never expected Situ Qingfeng to be so bold. Watching him, with a sneer of disdain on his lips, playing with his phone, he became furious and frantic, letting out a roar.
