Chapter 18:Wang Hao, Don't Hit Me

"That's about it." Yu Cheng Fei yawned contentedly, then tossed aside the half-brick in his hand.

He looked as if he had just finished a meal, so natural was his demeanor.

The young masters all wore smiles, clearly accustomed to this scene.

It was my first time seeing Yu Cheng Fei hit someone, my first time realizing how ruthless he could be.

I didn't know the extent of Hong Li's injuries, but blood was flowing from his head.

Zou Yang was trembling, and I could even hear the clatter of his teeth.

Yu Cheng Fei walked up to Zou Yang, tilted his head to look at his face, and said somewhat perplexed, "We've met before, haven't we?"

Zou Yang nodded.

In a small town like Dongguan, it wasn't surprising for them to have met.

"I've hit you before, haven't I?" Yu Cheng Fei asked.

Zou Yang nodded again.

I watched them both with astonishment. Yu Cheng Fei had hit Zou Yang? When was this?!

"It seems it's been over half a year..." Yu Cheng Fei fell into a bitter recollection, unable to recall the specific time and place, still not fully awake. Instead, he asked, "Why did I hit you back then?"

Zou Yang bit his lip, remaining silent. I was even more puzzled. Had Zou Yang offended Yu Cheng Fei?

"You're not going to say?" Yu Cheng Fei's tone lacked any intimidation, even carrying a hint of laziness.

But with Hong Li still lying on the ground, his head covered in blood, no one would think Yu Cheng Fei's words were just lazy. Zou Yang's lips moved slightly, and he finally said, "You told me not to bully Wang Hao again in the future."

I was shocked, never expecting Yu Cheng Fei to have hit Zou Yang for this reason, and half a year ago? Recalling, during that period, Zou Yang seemed to have bullied me even more.

"It seems you didn't heed the warning." Yu Cheng Fei shook his head, wearing a particularly regretful expression.

Two half-bricks lay on the ground, one stained with blood, the other relatively clean.

Yu Cheng Fei bent down, picked up the half-brick, then walked expressionlessly to Zou Yang.

The scene fell silent, everyone knowing what Yu Cheng Fei was about to do.

The commotion outside the internet cafe was so loud that even people inside were poking their heads out.

This internet cafe attracted students from three schools, and this incident would likely spread quickly among them.

Yu Cheng Fei was slender, but tall. He could converse with Zou Yang at eye level.

"I've listened, I've listened," Zou Yang said frantically.

"If you had listened, today's incident wouldn't have happened." Yu Cheng Fei raised the brick, gesturing back and forth like before.

Zou Yang's breathing became heavy, his eyes occasionally glancing at Hong Li on the ground. In a few minutes, he would end up like him.

"Is there anything else you want to say?" Yu Cheng Fei asked.

Zou Yang's throat moved, and he said, "I'm from Dongguan Town, c-can you please not hit me?"

"Bullying Wang Hao is a capital offense." Yu Cheng Fei's eyes suddenly sharpened. "You came to Chengnan High School and continued to bully him. You're quite something."

"I, I was wrong," Zou Yang's sweat oozed from his forehead, and he trembled uncontrollably.

Yu Cheng Fei said solemnly, "You said the same thing last time. But then you continued to bully Wang Hao. Where exactly is the problem? Did I not hit hard enough, or did you grow a lion's heart?"

Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator.

Yu Cheng Fei rubbed Zou Yang's face with the brick, back and forth, again and again.

Though I didn't know how it felt, I could guess that Zou Yang must have been terrified.

"He's peeing, he's peeing!" someone suddenly shouted.

I quickly looked at Zou Yang's crotch, which was indeed wet, emitting a foul smell. The vocational college students burst into laughter, some even doubling over.

Yu Cheng Fei only said a few words, but with the brick rubbing against Zou Yang's face, he actually made him wet himself!

I couldn't help but laugh, feeling a sense of satisfaction. But seeing Zou Yang's miserable appearance, I also felt a hint of pity. Nobody knew better than me what it felt like to be humiliated in public. Zou Yang must want to find a hole to hide in now...

Yu Cheng Fei frowned, probably unable to stand Zou Yang's pathetic state, so he took two steps back and came to my side.

Then, he handed me the half-brick.

"I've figured it out," Yu Cheng Fei said. "The reason he dared to bully you so openly is because he simply isn't afraid of you. If you want to break free from this fate, you must make him fear you. You know what to do."

As soon as Yu Cheng Fei spoke, the scene quieted down, and nobody was laughing anymore.

I took the brick.

The brick was cold, but my blood was hot.

During the three years of being bullied by Zou Yang, I had imagined beating him countless times with various weapons and techniques.

Unfortunately, it had always been just fantasy.

But in these past few days, these things were slowly becoming real. From his reaction in the classroom before, Zou Yang was already starting to fear me. But deep down, he still looked down on me, which was why he went to such lengths to bring in Hong Li.

I looked at Hong Li lying on the ground, still covered in blood. Hong Li was very afraid of Yu Cheng Fei, not just a normal kind of fear.

It's really hard to imagine that such an arrogant and domineering person could also have someone who made him trembling with fear.

Could Zou Yang be afraid of me?

I looked at Zou Yang's face.

"Wang Hao, don't hit me..." Zou Yang's cheeks trembled, his tone full of pleading. "I was wrong. Let's spare me this time, as we're classmates. I won't dare anymore. How much money do you want? I'll give it to you."

"Don't mention money." I raised the brick and sighed deeply.

Why do some people always think they can buy their way out of everything?

If you want others' respect, you must first become stronger.

Without hesitation, I swung the brick, hitting Zou Yang's forehead. I didn't know how much force to use, but as soon as the brick landed, blood immediately oozed from Zou Yang's forehead.

Zou Yang took two steps back, but didn't fall. Instead, he continued to plead, "Wang Hao, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. We were desk mates in junior high, remember? I used to bring milk for you to drink, don't you remember?"

I did remember that. When Zou Yang and I first became desk mates, he brought me a lot of snacks. But he did it so he could copy my answers during exams. He always used such methods to win people over. Unfortunately, I was a good student back then, firmly obeying the teacher's instructions to eliminate cheating, so I politely refused him. I even said, "Zou Yang, if there's anything you don't understand, I can explain it to you, but don't copy my answers. If you keep doing this, how will you get into high school?"

Thinking back now, I was really naive at that time...

But even so, did he have to bully me for three whole years, and even that time with the acceptance letter?

I also remembered kneeling in front of Zou Yang in the square in Dongguan Town. That memory was full of pain and humiliation, every recollection making it almost impossible to breathe. Of course, I also remembered the vows I made in my heart...

"Kneel down," I heard my own voice, so cold and heartless that even I felt unfamiliar.

Have I changed?

Have I changed?

Have I changed?

I asked myself in my mind.

Zou Yang looked at me in disbelief, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

"Kneel down," I heard my own voice again.

The scene became very quiet, with Yu Cheng Fei and the others behind me. I couldn't see any of their expressions.

What would they think?

Zou Yang's lips moved, but he still didn't react.

"I said kneel down." I became fierce and hit Zou Yang's forehead with the brick again.

Zou Yang's hands recoiled in pain, and at the same time, his knees bent, and he knelt down in front of me.

Last time in the dormitory, I whispered to Zou Yang, "You still owe me a 'kneel.' " I just wanted to scare him, but it turned out to be prophetic. But if he hadn't called Hong Li, none of this would have happened.

Zou Yang's tall and plump body knelt in front of me. I didn't need to look up to see him; I needed to lower my head to look at him.

Zou Yang's pants were wet and still emitted a foul smell. Blood dripped from Zou Yang's forehead, slowly flowing onto the ground. Zou Yang's knees knelt on the ground, looking so humble and pathetic.

But there was no satisfaction in my heart, and I couldn't laugh triumphantly like Zou Yang did in the square.

Is it something to be proud of when someone kneels to you? You may conquer his body, but you can't conquer his heart.

I knew what Zou Yang was thinking. He must be swearing to himself. Yes, swearing to take revenge one day!

In his heart, I was already the number one enemy.

But I didn't regret it.

I found myself slowly becoming more and more cold-blooded.

"Keep going," Yu Cheng Fei's voice came from behind me. "Keep hitting him until he completely submits to you."

"I submit, I submit," Zou Yang knelt on the ground, pleading in agony, like a pitiful dog.

But I threw the brick aside.

"Get lost," I said. "You're welcome to come back for revenge anytime."

Zou Yang looked up, shocked.

"I know what you're thinking," I said. "I don't want to hit you anymore; it just dirties my hands."

Zou Yang's expression turned very ugly, and he slowly stood up.

"Wait," Yu Cheng Fei came over and asked me, "Are you going to let him off like this?"
