Chapter 76: The Young Intern Teacher

  "Li Ming!" I shouted loudly at Li Ming in front of me, then used all my strength to throw the stick upwards.

  Among many brothers, Li Ming and I are the most tacitly coordinated, probably because we were together since childhood. As soon as Li Ming grabbed the stick, he smashed it on Zhi Ge's back without saying a word.

  However, Li Ming didn't gain any advantage from this move either. The guy behind him kicked his butt and he fell onto me.

  Just as defeat seemed inevitable, Zhou Yang and Liu Gang suddenly appeared out of nowhere. I didn't see Xu Long, but Zhou Yang and Liu Gang brought a lot of people with them.

  Liu Gang helped me up, and after these people arrived, the situation quickly turned around.

  Zhi Ge saw the situation was not good, so he immediately left. Liu Gang and Liu Kai were about to chase after him, but I stopped them. This is the south district, it's their territory, once we go in, we won't be able to come out.

  After all, this is not their entire strength.

  I asked Liu Gang, "Is this Xu Long's intention or are you all taking the initiative to help me?"

  Liu Gang said expressionlessly, "It was us who told Dragon Brother about what's going on over here, and he's the one who called us to come."

  "Ah, thank you guys."

  After separating, I went back to the dormitory and changed clothes, took a cool water bath.

  "Jiege, what's wrong?" Liu Shuai asked as he saw me looking unhappy.

  "Haven't you realized? If Xu Long hadn't come to rescue us this time, we would have lost again!" I furrowed my brow and said somewhat dispiritedly, "We can't always rely on others!"

  "We're too weak," I sighed.

  "Jie Ge, why do you think like that? From the beginning to now, we've built our own reputation in such a short time. How long did Xu Long take? Jie Ge, you can't give up on yourself and lose confidence. Our growth has been fast enough already. Looking back at high school, no one has grown faster than us." Liu Shuai said to me, "You're our leader, the backbone of our group. If you lose confidence, then we'll lose the meaning of our struggle."

  "I'm not losing confidence, I just have some disappointment in myself." I said with closed eyes and a shake of my head.

  I gave Zhang Zhikang a call and asked him to come out. When I saw Zhang Zhikang, I took out cigarettes and asked if he smoked. Zhang Zhikang smiled foolishly and told me he didn't smoke.

  I looked at Zhang Zhi-kang with a serious expression and asked him, "This noon, when you were having lunch with Cao Na, why was Wang Jian also there? Did he tag along on his own or what?"

  "It was a sudden arrival, originally it was the three of us eating, he suddenly appeared" Zhang Zhi Kang chuckled and said "Don't worry, Jie Ge, Cao Na likes you, that Wang Jian always sends things to Cao Na, but she rarely accepts them!"

  "Help me keep an eye on Cao Na, and notify me immediately if anything happens." I frowned and said "I don't like her being deceived, understand?"

  "I understand, I understand," Zhang Zhigang nodded repeatedly and said.

  This is the first time I've asked Zhang Zhikang out, and he didn't complain to me or ask to break up with Song Lina. This still makes me a bit uncomfortable. I suddenly smiled and patted Zhang Zhikang's shoulder "Not bad performance this time, you didn't loudly demand to break up with Song Lina, did you discover her good qualities?"

  "Brother Jie, isn't it all for you? I know Brother Jie arranged for me to be in front of Song Linlin, there must be a use for it, and being able to help Brother Jie is my honor." Zhang Zhikang flattered.

  "Alright, you can go now, just come find me if there's anything." I nodded in satisfaction.

  After separating, I went back to the dormitory to change clothes and took a cold water bath.

  "Jiege, what's wrong?" Liu Shuai asked as he saw me looking unhappy.

  "Haven't you realized? If Xu Long hadn't come to rescue us this time, we would have lost again!" I furrowed my brow and said somewhat dispiritedly, "We can't always rely on others!"

  At noon when school was dismissed, Xulon suddenly appeared at the door of my classroom. I looked at Xulon with a apologetic face and asked "How did you come here?"

  "I want you to go with me to see Rubin" Xu Long looked at me with a lost expression "Also, I'm sorry about yesterday's incident, I should have stood up for you"

  As I walked, I shrugged my shoulders lightly. "Actually, it's me who should be saying sorry. You've just suffered such a huge emotional trauma, and I shouldn't have pushed you so quickly." And also, thank you, after all, at the most critical moment, Liu Gang and Zhou Yang arrived, otherwise, we would have been done for again.

  "There's a big difference, you should understand." Xu Long slightly furrowed his brow and said "Whether I attend or not shows my attitude. Hei Zi Zhi Ge's side will also take it seriously and be cautious"

  "I didn't go, Heizi and the others will think we're not on the same page" Xu Long shook his head "The good thing is that it will make them jealous, the bad thing is that it will make some of the powers in high school feel that the two brothers are not as close as rumored"

  "Whatever, let's take it one step at a time," I said nonchalantly.

  Just as I was about to go downstairs, a familiar teacher came walking towards me. It was that young intern teacher. He saw me and beckoned me over, saying "You, you come here, let's have a chat."

  "Huh?" I stared blankly at my own nose, then looked at this young intern teacher and asked uncertainly, "Are you looking for me?"

  "Right, I'm looking for you."

  "You come too," he said with a pause, and the young intern teacher also pointed at Xu Long.

  I and Xu Long stared at each other in dismay, but ultimately followed the young intern teacher to the office.

  "My surname is Ye, you can call me Teacher Ye"

  "Teacher Ye, hello." I respectfully looked at this intern teacher and said.

  "Don't pretend to be a good boy in front of me, I know you're a little rascal." The intern teacher gave me a disdainful glance and sneered, "Li Jie, you were so mighty yesterday, waving a baseball bat around on the campus street. Do you think the teachers didn't see?"
