Dragon King’s Son-In-Law-Chapter 61: The Attitude of the School

Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated

The guys in dorm building No. 7 didn’t know about Zhao Jiayi’s fight until the four of them returned. Yu Rong, Gu Jiadong, Huang Jianfeng and the other students in the nearby dorm rooms all came over to ask about the incident.

They were all astonished when they knew Zhao Jiayi had been in a fight with the Savages from the basketball team. Zhou Liren’s eye swelled up and looked like a panda; Cao Ronghua, though not injured, had his clothes torn open; and Zhao Jiayi had the most severe injuries with a bloody mouth, a scratch on his forehead, a bleeding nose, and countless bruises on his arms and legs.

Only Hao Ren was intact except for his broken shoelaces. It was the most severe group casualties for Room 302 since the day they enrolled in school.

Yu Rong fetched some anti-infection medical solution from his own dorm and applied it to Zhou Liren’s wound. Zhao Jiayi, on the other hand, had to go to the hospital to check if he had any bone fractures.

“Damn! They dared to fight with us! Yu Rong, call all the guys from our department and go crash their training court!” Huang Jianfeng, who liked to stay in his room and read novels, was indignant. He called and shouted to Yu Rong, the most trustworthy guy among them who could summon a lot of students.

“Stop it!” suddenly, a crisp female voice came from the outside of the door.

Xie Yujia in her white shirt walked into Room 302. Under the watchful eyes of the guys, she walked to Zhao Jiayi and asked, “Are you all right?”

Zhao Jiayi didn’t expect the Class President would come to see him in person. He had been grimacing with pain, but now he suddenly toughed up and answered firmly, “I’m fine!”

Nodding, Xie Yujia looked at the other guys in the dorm and said, “School management is aware of the fight and is dealing with it. Don’t put yourselves in the wrong!”

“We should just forget about it after being beaten by them? No way!” Huang Jianfeng shouted. 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

“The members of the basketball teams are also injured. The Point Guard has a fracture in his arm, the Shooting Guard sprained his ankle, and the Power Forward injured his back. There will be a basketball match between our school and Jinghua University the week after next week. If they can’t play in the match, our school will be in the danger of losing. You must not do anything to make the matter worse!” 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

“The unrivaled players on the basketball team were also injured?”

The guys in Room 302 couldn’t believe the information Xie Yujia just told them.

Seeing their expressions, Xie Yujia continued, “In short, the school will deal with the matter seriously. You must not make the matter worse, or you will have to endure the consequences!”

Yu Rong took half a step forward and said, “But the school will surely stand behind the basketball team, and Zhao Jiayi will be punished unfairly. Besides, the record of disciplinary punishment would not affect the future of those guys on the basketball team while it would be different for Zhao Jiayi…”

“Fine! I will report it to the school!” Irritated, Xie Yujia interrupted Yu Rong.

She was incredibly bothered with the whole thing. On the one hand, the guys from her class caused trouble, but she didn’t want any of them to be punished. On the other hand, the starting players on the basketball team were injured because of the fight, and the basketball team would probably lose the match against Jinghua University in two weeks. Her older brother was now furious and had said he would handle this situation in person; that meant Hao Ren, main fighter, would face her older brother’s fury.

Besides, she had asked around about how the fight started. Zhao Jiayi and his two buddies had gone to the basketball court after finding no seats in the Internet Cafe. While they were playing, some members of the basketball team tried to take the court from them. Zhao Jiayi didn’t agree and argued with them. It had been quite an ordinary argument until Zhao Jiayi cussed at them and threw the basketball at one of the players on the basketball team. These members on the basketball team were always hot-tempered, and thus both parties got into a serious fight.

The fact was that Zhao Jiayi and his buddies had started the fight.

“Anyway, I’ll take you to the hospital and get you checked,” Xie Yujia turned to look at Zhao Jiayi and said.

“No! I’m fine!” Zhao Jiayi wanted to show his strong side in front of a girl.

“You better get a check-up. There will be more trouble if you have some unknown injuries,” Xie Yujia was stubborn; she grabbed Zhao Jiayi’s arm and insisted.

“Yeah, go check. The injury report will also be proof against them,” other guys urged.

“Fine,” Zhao Jiayi finally gave in. He looked at Zhou Liren and said “You will come as well. You must have your eye treated; you look like a panda!”

“Ok, ok…” rubbing his eye, Zhou Liren stood up.

Other guys volunteered to go with Zhao Jiayi, but Xie Yujia stopped them, saying, “Yu Rong and Cao Ronghua can accompany them. Hao Ren, you stay in the dorm and rest.”

Then she left the dorm with the four guys, and the other guys all returned to their own dorm rooms.

Xie Yujia came to their dorm and prevented the escalation of the situation while giving them comfort and emotional support. She was an excellent Class President.

Hao Ren was left alone in the dorm room. He thought for a while and was still unease. He dug out the thick Engineering Philosophy book and found Lu Qing’s business card that he put in it.

The school’s attitude on this incident was critical, and Lu Qing, the head vice president supervising the school’s management, would play an essential role in dealing with this incident.

Hao Ren didn’t want Zhao Jiayi to be mistreated. Although Zhao Jiayi started the fight, the trigger had been the long-time bullying behaviors of the players on the basketball team towards other students, especially junior students.

With the card in his hand, Hao Ren took out his phone and thought for half a minute about what he intended to say. He was about to dial the number when a thought occurred to him, so he put the card back into the book and stood up with the key of the dorm room.

It would be better to talk to Lu Qing face to face, rather than talking to him over the phone.

Hao Ren left the dorm building and hurried onto the campus. He went directly to vice president Lu Qing’s office, situated on the sixth floor of the administration building.

He knocked on the door and waited a while; no one answered or opened the door.

Worried that some teachers passing by would ask him questions, Hao Ren waited for half a minute at the door and had to leave when Lu Qing didn’t answer.

He knew the vice president was a busy man. Since the punishment decision wouldn’t be made so soon, Hao Ren was not very anxious. He wasn’t even certain that the fight had been reported to Lu Qing.

With this thought, Hao Ren took the elevator and went down. While he was walking out of the administration building, a mountain-like figure walked toward the entrance.

With a height of more than six-feet-five-inches and a width of almost three-feet-three-inches, this figure blocked the sunshine from coming in through the door.

The giant had to bend his back and lower his head to enter the door of the building. With a scowl on his face, he was not in a good mood.

Hao Ren guessed that he must be the legendary captain of the basketball team.

“Is he here to see the vice president Lu Qing, too?” the thought occurred to Hao Ren.

Indifferent to an ordinary student’s astonishment, the giant walked into the elevator from which Hao Ren had just come out.

Deng! Deng… The moment he walked into the elevator, it shook slightly.

Hao Ren stood there and watched the number above the elevator door change from one to two, three, four, five until it stopped at six.
