Chapter 25: Threats

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Teacher Chen, I… I can leave now, right?” I did not want to talk too much with him, so I asked carefully.

“Thank you for your hard work. Go back and have a good rest.” Perhaps because I listened to him, Chen Hanwei treated me exceptionally amiably. “I’ll look for you tomorrow. By the way, where did you buy that mask? I want to get one as well. Let me have a look.”

‘How difficult could it be to buy a mask?’ I thought to myself as I took it out and handed it to him.

“It’s quite good quality. Give it to me. I’ll go and buy one later. I’ll return it to you after I buy it,” Chen Hanwei said with a smile.

“Alright, you must return it to me.” I could not help but remind him.

I bought this mask from a small shop outside the back gate of the school. It cost me three yuan. Although it was not much, I was poor, and I had to save even one yuan. Naturally, I could not bear to part with it.

“F*ck, look at you, useless. You can’t even bear to part with something that costs a few yuan? Alright! Let’s talk about it tomorrow.” Chen Hanwei smiled and waved his hand. He just held the mask and turned around to leave.

I looked at his back and realized that he was actually wearing a pair of thin gloves. It was a little strange.

However, it could also be a personal habit. I did not think too much about it and turned around to go home.

That night, I slept exceptionally soundly. After venting my anger, I felt very comfortable.

The next day, early in the morning, I specially rewarded myself and ordered an extra basket of steamed buns.

It had been a long time since I had eaten so ‘rich’. I felt like I was floating after eating.

When I became rich in the future, I would eat steamed buns every morning. I would eat three baskets at a time. I would not throw a single one away. I would eat them all!

I went to school happily. Just as I entered the school gate, I received a text message.

It was from Chen Hanwei. “Have you come to school? Come to the gym for a while.”

I was slightly stunned. Why did he look for me so early in the morning?

A few minutes later, I saw Chen Hanwei in the gym. At this time, there was no one there, but he had the gym key, so he could enter directly.

The moment I entered, he closed the door and said indifferently, “Let’s get down to business!”

I said carefully, “Teacher Chen, what business?”

Chen Hanwei smiled slightly and took out his phone. He played a video and it to me.

After watching it for a moment, my entire body trembled.

It was actually the video of me beating up Fang Qian last night!

Moreover, the quality of the recording was very good. The entire process was recorded clearly!

“Teacher Chen, what are you…” I raised my head to look at him in shock.

“Right now, I’m the only one who knows that you intentionally hurt Fang Qian.” Chen Hanwei placed his phone in his pocket and said meaningfully, “If the police find out that you did this, what do you think the consequences will be?”

My face instantly turned pale. I opened my mouth but was unable to say anything.

What did he mean by this? Could he be using this to threaten me?

Chen Hanwei patted my shoulder. “Actually, the answer is very simple. You’ll be imprisoned and expelled. Not only will you lose your graduation certificate, but you’ll also have to leave a stain on your record for the rest of your life! Are you afraid?”

I stuttered, “Teacher… Teacher Chen, I don’t understand. Why… why…”

Chen Hanwei smiled, “Don’t be afraid. I don’t plan to report you.”

I said with a trembling voice, “Then why… Why did you say that?”

Chen Hanwei did not answer me directly. Instead, he said, “You’re from the countryside, right? Your family must have sacrificed everything to allow you to study, right? If your family knew that something like this had happened to you, won’t your parents be ashamed?”

The more I heard, the more shocked I became. I forced myself to say, “Teacher Chen, you were the one who forced me to do it…”

Chen Hanwei laughed. “Who can prove it?”

I was momentarily speechless.

Indeed, at that time, there was only him and me. No one could prove that he had threatened me!

Chen Hanwei said with a smile, “Let’s not talk about this first. If Fang Qian knew that you were the one who beat him up last night, Guess what he would do?”

My heart turned cold.

I was now very clear about Fang Qian’s personality. He would definitely take revenge on me! He would kill me!

This Chen guy said that he did not plan to report me, but he was clearly threatening me. What exactly did he want to do?!

Chen Hanwei continued, “Of course, you can rest assured. As long as you obediently listen to me, this matter will rot in my stomach for the rest of my life. However, if you don’t listen, haha…”

As expected!

This fellow was starting to reveal his fox tail!

My mind was in a mess. Suddenly, an idea flashed through my mind. I anxiously said, “That video can’t prove anything. The person inside is wearing a mask. No… no one can prove that it’s me!”

Chen Hanwei smiled coldly. “Did you forget about your mask? There was still Fang Qian’s blood splattering on the mask. As long as the police took it and examined it, they would immediately know that it was the mask that the perpetrator had worn. Of course, they would also find your DNA on the mask, heh!”

My legs went weak and I nearly fell to the ground.

At that time, Fang Qian had indeed bled a little, but because I was anxious, I did not notice that it had splashed onto the mask. This was really troublesome!

All of a sudden, I understood everything.

From the start, this fellow did not have any good intentions. He deliberately instigated and even forced me to attack Fang Qian. After he was done, he found an excuse to obtain the mask so that he could use it as evidence!

I was finished.

Now that he had something on me, I was completely finished!

Who would have thought that this fellow was such a scheming fox?!

After a long while, I finally said with much difficulty, “You… What are you trying to do….”

It was actually quite warm at this time of the year, so why was he still wearing gloves?
