Chapter 137: Come and repay
When I passed by the yard, I said: "Nan Nan sister, after seeing Dad, I have something to tell you."
"Go, go."
Nan led me into the living room, this villa from the outside looked luxurious, but inside it didn't look rich and grand, only everywhere showed a elegant atmosphere, showing the owner's excellent taste. Nan pulled me in, I saw at a glance that on the central sofa of the living room, there was a man wearing pajamas sitting, who was Li Zhengyang often seen on TV.
My heart skipped a beat and I broke out in cold sweat even before I approached.
"Hello, Uncle." I put down the things I brought and stood by the coffee table, feeling tense and unsure of what to do next.
"Hehe, don't be nervous, my dad is very kind." Nannan pulled over a stool for me to sit on the edge of the tea table, and then went to pour me tea and water. She also said to her father: "Dad, this is Wang Hao I told you about."
"Uh-huh." Li Zhengyang looked tired, but his eyes were sharp and alert. He nodded at me: "It's Wang Hao."
I nodded tensely and said, "Thanks for this time, Uncle." Then I was at a loss for words.
"It's nothing, just a small effort." Li Zhengyang looked at me and said: "How long have you known Nannan?"
I thought for a moment and said, "It's been less than two months, but I really hit it off with Nannan." Nannan chuckled beside me.
"It's not even two months yet..." Li Zhengyang nodded slightly, his entire back leaning against the sofa, looking very relaxed, like someone who would seize every opportunity to rest. "Nan Nan actually knelt down for me, this is really too unexpected."
"Huh?!" I exclaimed softly and looked at Nannan in surprise. Nannan said discontentedly, "Dad, why say that."
"It's nothing, I just want him to know how much sacrifice he made for this matter, so that he can learn some lessons in the future." Li Zhengyang looked at me again and asked about my family situation, study situation, etc. When he knew that I had been expelled from Chenggao High School, he shook his head regretfully: "Chenggao is a good school, it's a pity not to be there."
"Nan Nan took advantage of the situation and said: 'Dad, why don't you just let Wang Hao off with a warning and let him continue his studies at Chengao High? It's not that difficult, is it?'"
I'm getting a bit anxious, if I could go back to Chenggao High School, I wouldn't go to Vocational College again. Li Zhengyang shook his head: "Nannan, do you think this is a good thing? Letting someone who has already been expelled return to school, what will other students think? Where will the reputation of Chenggao High School be placed? Although I am the mayor of the city, I cannot abuse my power, I hope you can understand."
"Oh dear, I was just casually saying that, why are you taking it so seriously?" Nannan said with a pout.
The hope in my heart was dashed, but I didn't feel disappointed. Nannan and her dad had already helped me too much, I shouldn't be greedy for more.
After chatting for a while, Jing's mind finally relaxed a bit. To be honest, Li Zhengyang and I didn't have much to talk about, it was always Nannan who did the talking and we listened. Nannan looked particularly happy, constantly telling stories about my legendary days in high school, how I became the top student in just three months, and so on, making me feel a bit embarrassed. Li Zhengyang seemed to enjoy listening to his daughter talk about these things, smiling and nodding along, with a loving gaze that only a father could have.
I was thinking that Xia Xue and Taozi were waiting anxiously at home, I had to find an opportunity to talk to Nan Nan as soon as possible. After chatting for a while, Nan Nan said go to the kitchen to see if the water is boiling, I stood up and said I'll go with her. Li Zhengyang said: "Let her go, you can stay here." Nan Nan also pressed me down, smiling and saying: "Accompany my dad for a while." Then she rushed into the kitchen.
The living room had only me and Li Zhengyang, which undoubtedly intensified my tension. I was somewhat restless, and could only lower my head to look at the teacup.
"Wang Hao." Li Zhengyang suddenly called out softly.
"Ah?" I hastily lifted my head and saw Li Zhengyang staring at me: "Uncle, is there something wrong?"
Li Zhengyang's fatigue disappeared from his face, replaced by a majesty like that on TV, causing my heart to beat rapidly.
"I'm warning you, don't think that just because Nannan is your protective umbrella, you can do whatever you want outside. This time I helped because of my daughter's face, from now on, be honest and don't cause any more trouble for Nannan, did you hear me? Let me tell you, there won't be a next time, know your own limits!"
"Yes." I hastily replied, my heart feeling as if it had been stabbed. Li Zhengyang's words were particularly heavy, and they scared me so much that my body began to tremble slightly. No mistake, I was just a common citizen, and Li Zhengyang was willing to help me once and meet with me, which was already a great blessing. Of course, I didn't have the qualifications to make any more requests! I never thought that Li Zhengyang had called me over to say these words, my heart not only felt sad but also fearful. Nannan's father had indeed become disgusted with me in his heart!
"I hope I can put my words into action." Li Zhengyang straightened his back, picked up his cup and took a sip of water.
I hastily picked up the teapot on the table to refill his cup, but unexpectedly my hand shook violently and I spilled a lot of water on the table.
"Hmph, can't even pour water properly, what else can you do?" Li Zhengyang's tone was full of sarcasm.
My heart was deeply grieved, but I didn't feel tense anymore. I put down the teapot and said softly: "Uncle, you are the leader of the city, also Nannan's father, thank you for helping me this time. Emotionally and rationally, I should be filled with respect for you. I know that by helping me, you must have offended Su Yaoming. But I promise you, from now on, I will repay you doubly!"
"Alright, I'd like to see what kind of situation you can get yourself into and how you'll be able to repay the favor I'm doing for you today!"
"Alright." I nodded, stood up, and forced down the bitterness and humiliation in my heart: "In that case, I'll take my leave first."
Li Zhengyang didn't say a word, leaned on the sofa to watch TV, and didn't mean to keep me at all. Of course, I wouldn't humiliate myself again, turned my head and walked towards the door. Nan Nan came out just in time, chasing after me and saying: "Haozi, where are you going?"
I felt tears welling up in my eyes, Li Zhengyang's words had struck me too hard. I forced back the tears and smiled: "It's okay Nannan sister, I have to go now, Yu Ge and the others are still waiting for me at the internet cafe."
"Sit for a while longer." Nannan pulled me. I shook my head and insisted on walking towards the door. Nannan accompanied me out of the yard and asked again, "Is it something my dad said?" I continued to shake my head: "No, I just wanted to leave. Thank you for today's hospitality, Nannan sister, I'll come find you when I go to the internet cafe."
"Didn't you want to talk to me about something?"
"It's nothing, just wanted to say thanks." Li Zhengyang said I wasn't allowed to trouble Nannan again, so of course I couldn't ask her for that favor anymore.
"It must be my dad who said something, how could he do this to my friend!" Nannan was furious, "Haozi don't go, I'll go get justice back for you!" She pulled me and continued walking inside. I broke free and said: "Sister Nannan, it's really no use, just let me leave." Li Zhengyang already disliked me to begin with, how could I not know better than to go back?
No matter how hard it was to hold on, I insisted on leaving. Nannan couldn't do anything about it and saw me off at the door, watching with a heavy heart as I walked further and further away. As I left the mayor's residence, I gazed up at the starry sky and let out a long sigh. It was only natural that Li Zhengyang looked down on me - he probably thought I was one of those sycophants who would fawn all over Nannan just because she was the vice-mayor's daughter.
I secretly vowed in my heart that I would definitely make a name for myself and let Li Zhengyang see it, at least to repay today's kindness and humiliation! I walked around the tennis court near the director's building, and after calming down my emotions with great difficulty, I hurried to Xia Xue's home. It seems that the first method will be used, that is, to threaten Xia Xue's father's colleague with a group of thugs.
I must be ruthless, I must be ruthless. I secretly told myself in my heart that in other people's eyes, I should be a big villain who is unforgivable, let them go east and they dare not go west, let them count one and they dare not count two.
I want to be that kind of person, I want to be a bad guy who makes others afraid and tremble with fear. I want to be an evil person whose name alone makes people pee their pants in fright. I clenched my fists and on the way back, I punched each tree trunk heavily. This is a release, but also a declaration.
When I returned to Xia Xue's residential area, my fists were already covered in scars and bloodstains. Yet, I couldn't feel any pain.
After I left, Nan Nan furiously came to Li Zhengyang's side: "Dad, what exactly did you say to Wang Hao?! He's just a kid, how could you treat him like that?"
"Oh? What did he say?" Li Zhengyang's eyes had a hint of amusement.
"He didn't say anything!" Nannan was still angry: "But I know there's definitely nothing good to say, why did you do that?"
"He didn't tell, it's good, I guess I didn't misjudge the person." Li Zhengyang chuckled: "In just three months, he became the big boss of Cheng Gao, this person's future is probably boundless. A proper stimulation would still be beneficial for him. If a city must have an underworld, I hope the one controlling it is my direct subordinate, that way my power will become even stronger."
"Nan looked at her father in puzzlement: 'Why... why does he want to control the underworld?'"
"There are many things that require the underworld to resolve." Li Zhengyang looked at his daughter and said seriously, "This world has a white side, it also has a black side. The intersection of black and white will produce the most powerful force."
"So you're saying, you've taken a liking to Wang Hao?"
"He's still too young and insignificant to be considered a contender, all I can do is give him a push from behind. As for the future, it depends on his own luck. I won't place my hopes on someone who's only half-grown, I just hope he can really live up to what he says and repay my kindness many times over in the future. You should know, I never do business at a loss."
