Chapter 24 (1/2)
“You guys can chat. I still have to go and braise the pig trotters.”
After finishing his drink in one gulp, Ludi licked his lips and enjoyed the aftertaste for a while. Then he took his pig trotters and headed out.
The tea wasn’t bad, but Ludi was thin-skinned, so he didn’t ask for another cup.
“After I become a great teacher in the future, I’ll be able to afford such tea leaves as well. I’ll rinse my mouth with it!”
Ludi set a small goal for himself.
“Drink up!”
Sun Mo personally poured Li Gong a cup of tea.
Li Gong smiled bitterly and finished it. It didn’t matter since he was the one who had spewed it out anyway.
“Drink it all up, the entire pot.”
Sun Mo had no intention of letting this end.
(When a gentleman seeks revenge, it’ll be from day to night. Want me to drink a cup of tea that has been spat? You’ll count as lucky if I don’t pee all over your face.) 1
“Teacher Sun!” Li Gong pleaded.
“Pui!”
Sun Mo spat into the cup and put it in front of Li Gong.
“Sun Mo, you are an intern teacher. Can you not humiliate me like this?”
Li Gong gave in.
Sun Mo was sick of the persuasion and grabbed Li Gong’s hair directly, tugging it downward. He then brought the cup to Li Gong’s mouth, forcing the tea down his throat.
“Cough cough, cough cough!”
Li Gong coughed and struggled.
“When you spat into it, why didn’t you think of my status? Should I be the one humiliated instead?” Sun Mo asked.
Li Gong had wanted to push Sun Mo away with brute force. But when he heard this, his body stiffened up, and cold sweat covered his entire forehead. How did he know about that? A fluke? Right, it must be a fluke!
“Hmph!”
Sun Mo raised his hand and slapped the cup into Li Gong’s face.
Bang!
The cup shattered, and Li Gong’s nose broke as well. Two streams of blood immediately trickled down like water from a fountain.
“Ahh!”
Li Gong cried out agonizingly, held onto his face, and fell to the ground.
Sun Mo picked up the pot and poured it all over Li Gong’s head.
Splash!
Water splattered and Li Gong was drenched.
“Ahhh, it’s so hot!”
Li Gong’s clothes were completely wet, and he rolled around after being scalded. His skin had turned a little red as well.
Creak!
The dorm room opened, and Ludi stood there in a daze. He had forgotten something and came back to get it. However, he hadn’t expected to see such a violent scene.
“I’m sorry, I came to the wrong place!”
Bang!
Ludi closed the door and dashed down the stairs. As he was too nervous, a few pig trotters had dropped down.
Rumors said that people were giving Sun Mo a hard time and that he was leading a pathetic time in the logistics department, having to do all the tiring and dirty jobs. He wouldn’t be able to hang on for long…
Bullshit. That person seemed to be the one in-charge of Sun Mo in the logistics department. However, he was being trashed and yet didn’t dare to make a sound.
“Could it be that he can act like this just because his fiancée is the headmaster?”
Ludi was extremely envious. “Sun Mo is really having it good when sponging off a woman!”
…
“Department… Department Head Yang Cai came to look for me today, asking me to make things hard on you.”
Li Gong was in so much pain that he was clenching his teeth.
“You’re trying to haggle with me?”
Sun Mo smiled coldly.
“No, no, I wouldn’t dare.” Li Gong explained, “I think that you should help me cure my lame leg, then we can deal with him to…”
Bang!
Before Li Gong could finish his words, Sun Mo picked up the pot from the ground and smashed it right on Li Gong’s head.
Dong!
Li Gong fell flat on his back.
“Don’t you understand your situation yet?”
Sun Mo squatted down next to Li Gong, poking him in the chest. “You don’t have a choice. Yang Cai’s goal is just to deal a blow to An Xinhui through me, chasing me away while he was at it. I’m telling you, I don’t care if I have this job or not.”
Li Gong looked at Sun Mo. Given his judgment that was trained from scrambling around at the bottom of the society, he could tell that this young man wasn’t joking.
The actual owner of this body was previously worried that he’d make mistakes and get fired. That was why he kept on tolerating things. However, things were different for Sun Mo. Although this was a good job that over 200 people were fighting to get, even if he were to be eventually converted to a permanent position, he’d still tender his resignation if he wasn’t happy with the job. He wouldn’t have any reservations.
Li Gong was at a loss. He was like an old dog whose territory had been snatched from him, lowering his head. His teeth were unable to get through Sun Mo!
Sun Mo grabbed onto Li Gong’s leg with one hand and kneaded a little with his grandmaster-grade ‘Muscleforge Technique’. This gave him a greater understanding of Li Gong’s injury.
Li Gong first felt soreness and numbness, followed by a piercing pain, and then a warm current flowing through. His lame leg, which he had lost the feeling of, felt extremely comfortable.
“It’s moving? My leg is actually moving?”
Li Gong was elated.
“Don’t challenge my patience again. If you want your leg to be cured, then do as I say.”
Sun Mo got up and patted Li Gong on the shoulder. “Another thing. The muscles on your lame leg haven’t been moved over the years and have shrunk a lot. If this drags on, it will be impossible to cure it.”
As Sun Mo removed his hand, Li Gong’s lame leg once again returned to the icy cold condition it was in before. That feeling was like a parched traveler in the desert finding a watermelon after great difficulty. But when he had just taken a bite into it and hadn’t had the opportunity to enjoy it, someone slapped him in the face, and he spewed it out.
“Are you a demon?” Li Gong cried.
“No, I’m Sun Mo.” 1
