A group of students looked at Chu Hao with eyes filled with horror, as if they had gained a new understanding of the bully.
What the heck is going on? These students are too good at spouting nonsense, Chu Hao thought.
Rumors spread, and Chu Hao became the strongest bully at Star Dream High School.
Qin Feng was terrified. He hadn't been sleeping well these past few days, all because of Chu Hao.
This guy was too fierce. He seemed unbeatable in the Luo Family, battling mantis-like monsters. His terrifying methods, in particular, left Qin Feng feeling utterly defeated.
Look for trouble with Chu Hao again? Only if I had a screw loose! Qin Feng thought.
These two approached Chu Hao, their attitude having made a complete 180-degree turn.
Chu Hao glanced at Qin Feng and said indifferently, "I hear you're quite famous now."
Qin Feng felt miserable inside but still managed a smile. "It's all thanks to Brother Hao's guidance."
Honestly, when I said that, I could hardly believe it was me speaking. It's just too revolting! Qin Feng cringed internally.
Chu Hao couldn't help but grimace. He turned to Yun'er beside him and said, "Yun'er, try to stay away from people in the future."
Qiu Yun'er blinked her large eyes. "Why, though?" Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novel-fire.net
Chu Hao replied, "People like him have violated the most basic human dignity."
Qin Feng: "..." I want to cry! It's not my choice; he forced me! He dared not say a word.
The news that Chu Hao was the top bully at school had spread. Rumors claimed he coerced and bribed, showed no respect even to teachers, and had even driven people to jump off buildings.
Now, wherever Chu Hao went, students recognized him and would quickly step aside, fearing they might attract the attention of Tyrant Chu.
Because of this, Chu Hao was utterly dejected. His reputation as a bully seemed completely beyond redemption. Rumors and slander truly could be deadly.
When he dropped Yun'er at her classroom door, the first-year high school students were as silent as cicadas in winter, sitting as primly as elementary school students, perfectly well-behaved.
The first-year teachers, upon seeing Chu Hao arrive, felt their hearts skip a beat and quickly greeted him with smiling faces.
Which teacher at the school wasn't aware of Chu Hao's formidable name by now?
This was the guy who could even get the principal dismissed. Getting rid of them would be a trivial matter, wouldn't it?
"Classmate Chu Hao, welcome for your inspection," a teacher said.
The first-year students' eyes widened.
See that? A bully is a bully! Even the teachers can only say, 'Welcome for your inspection.' Our Brother Hao is truly impressive! they thought in unison.
A few first-year students, particularly the troublemakers in class, looked up at Chu Hao with immense admiration. They secretly vowed to become a bully just like him. That's the real deal!
"DING... Host has gained 800 Pretentiousness Points for being stealthily pretentious, the most lethal kind."
Wherever Brother Hao went, he was always the brightest star.
Chu Hao said, "Teacher, this is my sister. I hope you can take good care of her in the future."
The teacher looked at Qiu Yun'er, his smile as wide as a blooming chrysanthemum. "Rest assured, Classmate Chu Hao, I will take good care of your sister."
This girl is Chu Hao's sister! It's like a pie falling from the sky! If the principal knew, he would surely ensure she's well taken care of. Who knows, he might even be so delighted he'd make me the year group leader! the teacher mused.
After all, Chu Hao's homeroom teacher had already been promoted to a high school director, jumping two levels directly.
Chu Hao said to Yun'er, "Call me after class; your brother will come pick you up."
"Got it," Qiu Yun'er replied乖巧地.
After Chu Hao left, the class instantly erupted.
A few particularly rowdy boys brought out various drinks and snacks, respectfully saying, "Big Sister, please have some water."
Another boy patted his chest and declared, "Big Sister, just tell us what you need! Even if it means climbing a mountain of swords or plunging into a sea of flames, we'll definitely complete the task!"
Qiu Yun'er was at a loss for words.
Chu Hao strolled lazily into his classroom. Wang Qi approached him, fawning like a servant, and said with a smile, "Brother Hao, I wonder when you'll help me solve my problem?"
Beside him, Li Yin smugly asked, "How's that one hundred million coming along?"
Wang Qi took out a card, his expression bitter. "One hundred million is too much. My family's business recently took a loss, and we really can't come up with that much. This is thirty million. Please, Brother Hao, accept it."
Li Yin was somewhat excited. Thirty million? He feigned calmness, rolled his eyes, and said, "Well, what are you hesitating for then?"
Wang Qi gritted his teeth. This Li Yin is infuriating! Brother Hao hasn't even spoken yet!
Chu Hao waved his hand. "Wang Qi, do you know why I had you prepare one hundred million?"
Wang Qi's face contorted as he shook his head. "Brother Hao, I... I don't understand."
Chu Hao said with an air of pretentiousness, "Do you think Brother Hao is the kind of person who needs one hundred million?"
Wang Qi quickly waved his hands. "Of course not! Brother Hao, with just a wave of your hand, countless people would bring you money. You definitely wouldn't care about a mere one hundred million."
Chu Hao's expression turned stern. Does this guy really not get it?
Chu Hao said slowly, "Brother Hao doesn't lack one hundred million. What I lack is one billion."
"DING... Host has successfully shown off, gaining 400 Pretentiousness Points."
Wang Qi was speechless. "..." One billion?! Why don't you just go rob someone?!
Wang Qi's face was a picture of misery as he looked pitifully at Chu Hao, his life entirely in the other's hands.
Chu Hao took the card. "Go back and wash your arms with morning dew. Also, don't eat meat for a while. Stick to a vegetarian diet for three months first, and avoid crowded places."
Wang Qi asked excitedly, "Does this mean I can get rid of that thing inside my body?"
Chu Hao replied indifferently, "Brother Hao has principles. One hundred million means one hundred million. Thirty million can only begin to address the root issue, enough to suppress that evil spirit for some time."
What the hell! Wang Qi felt an urge to vomit blood. Thirty million for just that? I could cry right now!
Wang Qi left, his face a mask of depression and misery. Once he was gone, Li Yin exclaimed excitedly, "Thirty million, just like that?"
Chu Hao smiled. "That kid's family is pretty rich."
Li Yin exclaimed, "That's awesome! Why bother studying? I should just hang out with you from now on!"
Chu Hao looked at him disdainfully. "No ambition. We're the kind of people who aim for film school. How can we let money get us down?"
Seeing Chu Hao's smug expression, Li Yin couldn't help but retort, "Can you stop showing off? Once the wound heals, you forget the pain, huh? Do you still remember sleeping under the bridge?"
Right, showing off in front of someone who knows your past just doesn't work, Chu Hao thought.
The phone rang. Seeing the familiar number on the screen, Chu Hao quickly answered.
"Director Grandpa, what a surprise! How do you have time to call me?" Chu Hao's face lit up with a wide, sincere smile.
On the other end of the call was the director of the orphanage that had raised him, a sixty-three-year-old man.
Indeed, without the Director, there probably would be no Chu Hao. His feelings for the man were like those for a biological parent, and he held immense respect for him.
Years ago, Chu Hao had arrived in Jiulong Town alone. Starving and nearly frozen to death in a heavy downpour, it was the Director who had carried him on his back to the orphanage.
"Little Maozi, it's the weekend tomorrow. Do you have time to come over?" Over the phone, the Director's voice sounded a little heavier than usual.
Chu Hao immediately replied, "Of course, I do."
"Good. Come over tomorrow. It's Grandma Ji's birthday, and she misses you all."
Chu Hao lightly slapped his own face. I can't believe I almost forgot Grandma Ji's birthday!
