Age of Legends

Chapter 20 Impressive
"Your school is so good, you should not be ungrateful for what you have. If I could go back to the past, I would go to Yude even if I didn't want the Omi Scholarship, and I'm sure my grades would be better!"

Li Wei was telling the truth. She really yearned for Yude more. Of course, it was related to the fact that Yude had been getting better and better over the years. A good performance meant more people wanted to get in. Many families with good financial conditions and power tried to get people in. As this trend became more common, its fame spread, and there was a sense of superiority that was brought up by power.

Levi yearns for the feeling of studying in a prestigious school. He feels that it is easier to stand out and have more advantages in a prestigious school.

This is also very realistic, just like the school beauty Shen Nuoyi of Yude, who has been famous for a long time. There is also a girl named Zhuang Yanyue, who seduced the school hunk of Jinjiang Middle School last time and made him lose his mind. He went to the gate of Yude school every day to wait for someone, and everyone knew about it.

There was also a girl from the gymnastics team who won a provincial award for her good grades in rhythmic gymnastics and was directly reported in the news, being hailed as the "Yude Little Flower". When Li Wei saw the report in the Rongcheng Metropolitan Newspaper, he was filled with envy and jealousy.

Of course, this does not mean that she can get this honor, but Yude represents the center of public opinion, the envy and attention of others. She feels honored to be in the eye of the storm, instead of like now, when she can only listen to the stories from Yude High School at Omi Middle School.

Rather than urging Zhang Chen to improve his grades, she was using this opportunity to express her own situation of having a pearl thrown into the dark.

Not to mention that she recently heard from her mother that she found a love letter in Zhang Chen's schoolbag. She was even more disdainful of it, thinking that it was just a badass dating a couple.

As soon as Li Wei finished speaking, Aunt Wang, the office director next to him, said, "Look at your sister. She really cares about you like an older sister. Aunt Wang, it's hard to find a brother or sister who cares about me so much now..."

Someone else said to Liu Shuzhen, "Your daughter is so well behaved! She even received a scholarship. It would be great if my child could be like this!"

Li Wei is the princess of the Sugar and Wine Company. She doesn’t know whether the people around her are really complimenting her or whether they have to surround her because of her father.

But Zhang Chen tends to think more of the former. Because Li Wei's grades are outstanding, in this kind of family gathering, grades are the right to speak, the golden hoop stick, whoever dares to show his head will be hit on the head, and whoever doesn't show his head will be hit too.

That's why the kids from the sugar and wine companies didn't sit at the same table with Li Wei, but stayed far away. It was obvious that they were very experienced.

This was what Zhang Chen hated the most in the past, but he had to patiently listen to her scolding.

Now Zhang Chen was calm and composed. He just said “hmm” and “hmm” to whatever Li Wei said, which made Li Wei feel like she was hitting cotton. She got annoyed and said, “Don’t just eat the food! Speak!”

"I said it. Yeah." Zhang Chen responded while holding his chopsticks.

"Look, there's red oil all around your lips!" Levi said in annoyance.

"Where? Wipe it for me with paper." Zhang Chen pointed to the paper next to her.

Li Wei was about to grab some paper, but suddenly realized what was happening and threw the plastic box that the restaurant used to hold paper in front of him, "Get it yourself!"

Li Wei was very annoyed. In the past, when she talked, Zhang Chen would always talk back, which made her even happier. She would use her eloquent words to suppress Zhang Chen. But now, Zhang Chen was acting like a big shot, doing Tai Chi. She felt a little suffocated.

After thinking for a while, she thought it was time to take drastic measures. "Zhang Chen, I heard my mom say that day that you wrote love letters to a girl. What are you thinking now? Do you think your grades are good? How much can you get in the final exam this time? The full score is 750, can you get in with 420? Why don't you pay attention to the future that you can see with your grades? You are still hanging around in front of me. Don't you think that your attitude can irritate me? What's the point of irritating me? Just get a good major and don't let your mother worry about it!"

At this time, his own mother even said, "Did you hear that, son? Listen to your sister!"

Zhang Chen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

As a result, a group of people at the table next to them, who were children of the Sugar and Wine Company, had been listening attentively for a long time. Everyone had a strange expression on their face. Finally, one of the girls couldn't help but come over and asked, "Are you Zhang Chen? You go to Yude Middle School? Are you the Zhuang Yanyue you rejected?"

Then the girl's expression became visibly excited, "Zhuang Yanyue is the one that even Ding Haochen, the rookie in our Omi Middle School, couldn't catch!"

It can be seen that the expressions of the girl who walked over and the children of the sugar and wine company at the table behind her were all "How could he be so worthy!?"

She also heard the name of Levi, the school hunk who was so handsome when playing basketball on the court that she stopped to watch him many times.

Zhang Chen just felt sorry, Ding Haochen, for getting to know you in this way.

……

Li Degui came over from the side. He had just come back from hanging out with other people at other tables and was a little drunk. When he came over here and saw Zhang Chen's family, he sat down next to them.

Aunt Wang naturally took the initiative to give up her seat.

The boys and girls at the next table all shrank back. They thought they were kidding. Li Degui was the chairman of the trade union and the secretary in charge of the party and mass work. He was basically the second in command in the company. These children were influenced by their parents and were extremely afraid of Li Degui.

This is also the reason why many people dare not contact Li Wei. When Li Wei was a child, playing in the yard, Li Degui threatened those children, "This is my daughter. If you dare to mess with him, I will cause trouble for you." The children were so scared that they didn't even dare to mention their cousin.

Hong Kong television was very popular at that time. Privately, Li Degui was given a very Hong Kong-style nickname "Li Batian" among these children.

Li Degui was obviously very arrogant in front of Huang Huifen and Zhang Zhonghua. You see, his words were final. He was also showing off to his wife's cousin's family.

Li Degui raised the glass in his hand and looked at Zhang Zhonghua slowly, "Why, you don't want to have a drink today?"

Zhang Zhonghua didn't like drinking, and he felt uncomfortable today, so he waved his hand and said, "I don't feel well today, Brother Li, so I won't drink." Li Degui's face changed slightly, and then he put the wine glass heavily on the table and said without hesitation, "You said your family... we don't have anything. When Zhang Chen went to Yude, he asked us to borrow money. How could we lend you that money... What I mean is, if you can't go in, don't go, don't force yourself to go. Look, in Yude, Zhang Chen is just a bottom-ranked student! Look at our Li Wei, Jinjiang Middle School gave her a scholarship, and now she is also on the first line of a key university. What will happen to your Zhang Chen in the future? You have no ability, and your son has no role model, and you have no future..."

He has never been shy about criticizing Zhang Zhonghua, and Zhang Zhonghua usually endures his anger towards Zhang Chen's uncle's family. After all, Huang Huifen agrees with their criticism and feels that her husband is incompetent. Sometimes she also complains to Liu Shuzhen.

This is the daily routine at such gatherings. Huang Huifen complains, Liu Shuzhen joins in, Li Degui criticizes, and Li Wei stands by to target Zhang Chen. It's all complete.

Zhang Zhonghua smiled and said to Li Degui, "Brother-in-law, you are drunk..."

But then there was a "bang!"

Today is different.

The people at the table and even at the surrounding tables were stunned by the sound and all looked over.

Zhang Chen pressed the bowl in his hand heavily on the table, and then two pairs of chopsticks rotated and inserted into the steamed sea bass in front of him, like two arrows.

This operation stunned the others. Zhang Chen was also shocked. I don’t have any internal strength!
Then Zhang Chen stood up and looked directly at Li Degui.

At that moment, everything froze.

There was a moment of silence at the party.

The faces of the people around were filled with shock. I don’t know if it was because of the two chopsticks stuck in the steamed sea bass, or because they had seen something incredible.

The kids from the sugar and wine company at the table next to them wanted to run away on the spot - he actually gave the cold shoulder to "Li Batian"?

Li Degui was more shocked and furious than the others. He looked at this little bastard who would never dare to raise his head under his pressure. He thought to himself, how dare he do that?

Li Wei was also frightened. She even wanted to drag Zhang Chen down and say something soft to him.

Zhang Chen looked at Li Degui, his mind racing, thinking about how to take this opportunity to sever or cool down the relationship with this lineage, otherwise they would always be pua to his entire family. Suddenly, he came up with a powerful line.

"My dad is not incompetent, he just doesn't want to compete with people like you."

"Thirty years on the west side of the river, thirty years on the east side of the river."

Zhang Chen took a deep breath and exhaled.

"Don't bully young people into poverty!"

"I'm done eating, Dad, Mom, let's go!"

Then Zhang Chen pushed the chair away, turned around and left.

After walking for a while, I found that no one was following me.

Zhang Chen was so upset. He had eaten and drunk enough, and his face was also lost. If he didn't leave now, when would he leave? He had to run quickly! But he couldn't leave his two teammates behind.

Zhang Chen, who walked out of the door with his hands in his pockets, had to take a few steps back, leaned his head back from the door again, and winked at his parents.

In the extreme silence, Zhang Zhonghua still stood up and walked towards Zhang Chen in silence.

Huang Huifen also stood up, and followed Zhang Chen from behind, turning back and saying, "Hey, this kid, I'll talk about him later!"

Then Zhang Chen and his family just left.

Liu Shuzhen was standing there, and suddenly said to Li Degui, "You too, what do you think his father is doing?" The people around her immediately followed up and tried to smooth things over, "Hey, we are all family, why are you arguing..."

Only Li Wei looked at Zhang Chen's back and found that he seemed to not understand his cousin at all.

The men and women at the table next to them looked at this scene and repeated what they had just said, "Oh..."

"So he is Zhang Chen..."

"!!!"
