Chapter 70: As Expected, No Good Comes of It
Today, Xiao Yifeng wasn’t wearing his usual shabby clothes but was dressed in a school uniform. Given his young age, he blended in with the students, looking no different from an ordinary student. Today was the day of the parent-teacher meeting, and there were many people coming and going. It seemed Xiao Yifeng had taken this opportunity to sneak in.
At this moment, Xiao Yifeng was looking around, squinting his eyes to check out the pretty girls around him. Soon, a very beautiful girl caught his attention. This girl was none other than Xu Muyan. In terms of looks and figure, she was no less than Qin Yunhan. When Xiao Yifeng first saw Qin Yunhan, he was utterly amazed. Now, seeing Xu Muyan, he felt the same way.
Xiao Yifeng, unable to resist, immediately went up to strike up a conversation.
From a distance, Wang Haoran watched, not finding this scene surprising at all. The protagonist is like a dog, and the female lead is like a bun; how could a dog not be tempted by a bun?
Xu Muyan was originally the female lead in Chu Bai’s storyline. However, after Chu Bai’s downfall, his original storyline collapsed, but Xu Muyan’s status as a female lead remained. Judging by the current situation, it seemed that Xu Muyan was subtly being incorporated into Xiao Yifeng’s storyline.
However, Wang Haoran wasn’t worried at all. He didn’t stop Xiao Yifeng from approaching Xu Muyan because he couldn’t be bothered to make unnecessary efforts. Xu Muyan was different from Qin Yunhan and Mu Zhaozhao; she already had someone in her heart. Even if the protagonist wanted to win her over, it would be a very difficult task.
Sure enough, before Xiao Yifeng could even finish a sentence, Xu Muyan walked away with a look of disgust. Xiao Yifeng was left embarrassed, but he quickly shifted his gaze elsewhere, resuming his drooling expression because he saw the young lady.
“The girl with the baby face and explosive figure next to the young lady must be Mu Zhaozhao, right? She’s really beautiful!” Xiao Yifeng couldn’t help but swallow several times, fantasizing in his mind.
From afar, Wang Haoran observed Xiao Yifeng and couldn’t help but feel puzzled. The reason for his puzzlement wasn’t discovering that Xiao Yifeng was a pervert but suddenly realizing a problem. According to the rules of urban novels, wherever a protagonist with high combat power goes, no good things happen. It’s like in the Detective Conan series, wherever Conan goes, people die!
Wang Haoran was sure that Xiao Yifeng’s sudden appearance here meant something unusual was going to happen, and it would most likely involve Qin Yunhan and Mu Zhaozhao. He couldn’t let Xiao Yifeng stay here. Since Xiao Yifeng wasn’t a student of this school, it wouldn’t be difficult to drive him away. However, Wang Haoran couldn’t be bothered to do it himself for such a trivial matter.
He called over the three brothers, Fan Jian, Fan Tong, and Qin Shousheng, and told them something. After hearing him out, the three brothers immediately headed towards Xiao Yifeng. Soon, the voices of the three brothers could be heard in the crowd.
“Who are you? You don’t look like a student from our school. Where did you come from?”
“Look at him sneaking around; he doesn’t look like a good person. He must be here to steal something!”
“Security, where’s the security?!”
Upon hearing the commotion, seven or eight security guards rushed over, demanding Xiao Yifeng’s student ID. Shuizhe Education Group was financially strong, and Shuizhe High School, as a flagship under the group, was equipped with a very strong security force. Each security guard was well-trained, almost to the level of professional bodyguards. Otherwise, the three young men who previously kidnapped Qin Yunhan wouldn’t have just waited outside.
Naturally, Xiao Yifeng couldn’t produce a student ID. Seeing this, the security guards immediately became suspicious and wanted to detain Xiao Yifeng. However, Xiao Yifeng, with his high combat power and self-confidence, wouldn’t be easily captured. He broke through the security guards’ encirclement and successfully escaped.
The security guards chased after him but couldn’t catch up. Although these security guards were well-trained, Xiao Yifeng was simply too strong. With 15 years of internal martial arts, he could easily push a strong man five meters away with a casual shove. These security guards had no chance of catching Xiao Yifeng.
Wang Haoran wasn’t surprised by this outcome. He only wanted to drive Xiao Yifeng away, and now that his goal was achieved, that was enough. Xiao Yifeng’s incident caused a minor stir but was quickly suppressed. The parent-teacher meeting continued as usual.
The homeroom teachers of each class took turns speaking on stage, either praising or criticizing the students in their classes. Wang Haoran, with his excellent grades, received special praise from Song Zhenyu. Many envious eyes were cast his way. If it were an ordinary student, they would have been overjoyed. However, Wang Haoran had no interest in experiencing this joy. His attention was almost entirely focused on Qin Yunhan and Mu Zhaozhao.
But after waiting for half an hour, nothing unusual happened.
“Could it be that after driving Xiao Yifeng away, the bad things disappeared too?” Wang Haoran speculated to himself.
“Fire!”
However, just as Wang Haoran had this thought, a panicked voice suddenly came from outside. The other people in the conference hall were initially stunned. But as some smoke drifted in from outside the window, everyone’s expressions changed instantly.
Damn! As expected, no good comes of it!
Wang Haoran internally complained.
“Run!”
In the conference hall, the panicked screams of people and the sound of chairs colliding filled the air.
“Slow down, slow down, everyone, don’t panic, leave in an orderly manner!” Tang Bingyun shouted loudly, trying to calm everyone down. However, with thick smoke billowing in from outside, the fire seemed to be getting bigger. This conference room was on the sixth floor, the top floor. If they didn’t run, they might not make it out alive! How could they not be anxious?!
The scene became chaotic and out of control. Parents and children, in pairs, rushed towards the exit. There were over five hundred people in the conference hall, but there were only two doors to exit. With people pushing and shoving, collisions and trampling were inevitable, and some unlucky ones got stepped on. Although it wasn’t severe enough to cause serious injury, it was unavoidable to get their feet hurt.
Unfortunately, Mu Zhaozhao was one of the unlucky ones. Seeing this, Wang Haoran couldn’t help but mutter. Truly, those with the female lead halo attract trouble.
However, this was exactly what Wang Haoran wanted. Qin Yunhan, showing loyalty, let Mu Zhaozhao’s grandfather run with everyone else first and tried to carry Mu Zhaozhao out herself. However, being pampered and weak, she couldn’t carry Mu Zhaozhao for more than a few steps and had to switch to supporting her instead.
Qin Yunhan might have a princess syndrome, but her character was genuinely good. In such a critical situation, she didn’t abandon her friend to save herself. Wang Haoran wanted to help, but Fang Xuan was also struggling to walk, let alone run. Both were female leads, and Wang Haoran couldn’t just abandon Fang Xuan to help the other side.
“I’ll carry you!” Wang Haoran suddenly bent down slightly and said to Fang Xuan. Seeing this, Fang Xuan was stunned. She thought Wang Haoran would leave her behind and run away.
