Pei Jinye had arranged with Principal Wang that every subsequent delivery would be ensured to reach his home, the one where Father Pei and Mother Pei lived.
Today, after leaving No.2 Middle School,
Pei Jinye made a special trip back there.
But Father Pei and Mother Pei weren’t in.
Following the route etched in his memory, Pei Jinye found his way there.
Qingtang Road, East Street, popularly known as the food street.
At this moment, Father Pei and Mother Pei were busy at their stall, with the clamorous cries of hawkers surrounding them.
“Jinye?” Father Pei saw Pei Jinye. “Have you eaten yet? Shall I make you a meat pie?”
Pei Jinye shook his head, “I have eaten. I was just passing by and wanted to check in.”
“Aren’t you attending school today?” Mother Pei looked over suspiciously.
Pei Jinye took out a leave slip personally approved by the principal and greeted, “The school has permitted me to train on my own. Periodically, they will send a batch of supplies to our home. They’ll contact me in advance, and I’ll let you know, so you can receive it for me.”
The school is also sending supplies?
It was news to Father Pei and Mother Pei, but seeing that Pei Jinye appeared to be in good condition, it eased their worries.
After the customers had left,
Pei Jinye helped clean up the dining table.
Before long, a group of men, brimming with aggression, came over.
Father Pei saw them and inwardly cursed his bad luck, but he still put on a courteous face and took out a pack of cigarettes. “Brother San, what brings you here today?”
Pei Jinye’s action of wiping the tables didn’t stop; he just turned his head with a puzzled look for a glance.
The fat man, dressed in the street management uniform, trailed by three underlings all clad similarly but of slimmer build.
Brother San swatted away the hand Father Pei extended with the cigarettes, his impatience clear as he said, “I tell you, Old Pei, I’ve been quite accommodating, haven’t I? I agreed to your late stall fee payment by half a month, right? But you can’t treat Brother San like a fool, can you?”
Mother Pei was obviously indignant, “Why does everyone else pay 600 a month, and our family has to pay 1200? Brother San, you’re a reasonable man, but this is just too much!”
Working hard all month just to take home a little over three thousand, and now to be gouged for an extra twelve hundred out of the blue, who could stand it?
“Too much?” Brother San scoffed, “Yours is the largest table! It’s only right that we charge you more! I’m laying it out here today—”
“Brother San, is it?”
Suddenly, a calm voice interjected.
All eyes turned in unison.
Father Pei and Mother Pei’s expressions changed, “Jinye!”
Father Pei hurriedly went forward to pull Pei Jinye, who was walking towards them. Pei Jinye patted his shoulder, a faint smile on his face as he said, “Dad, don’t worry. Brother San is a reasonable man; he won’t make things difficult for me.”
Father Pei hesitated for a moment.
Pei Jinye had already walked past him.
Brother San raised an eyebrow at Pei Jinye.
“And who might you be?”
Pei Jinye chuckled, “Surely Brother San isn’t afraid of a high school student, right?”
“What a joke”
Before Brother San could finish scoffing, Pei Jinye spoke casually, “Let’s talk over there.”
Brother San frowned.
The next moment, Pei Jinye reached out and grabbed his arm.
The underlings at his side immediately furrowed their brows, ready to reprimand Pei Jinye’s disrespectful behavior.
But to their surprise, their own captain obediently followed him.
The subordinates exchanged confused glances, clueless about what was happening.
As Pei Jinye pulled Brother San aside, he didn’t forget to look back and smile at his parents, “Keep up the business. I’ll just talk to Brother San about my school stuff. He’ll understand.”
After finishing his words, he led Brother San to an alley nearby.
Father Pei and Mother Pei looked at each other hesitantly.
“Should we go check it out?”
“Jinye…”
The three underlings, resembling monkeys, looked at each other in bewilderment, then hurriedly followed.
They had just reached the entrance of the alley.
“Whoosh!”
A fist flew through the air.
The first to bear the brunt of it was one individual who took a punch straight to the face, eyes widening in shock as his body slammed against the wall.
Before the other two could even react, they were dragged into the fray.
If it weren’t for the worry about upsetting his parents, Pei Jinye would have been hard-pressed to hold back from taking action until now.
“You want money, is it?”
“I am a member of the street management—bump!”
Pei Jinye delivered a punch straight to the stomach, causing the other person to open their mouth wide in pain, vomiting sour bile, their body in mid-air resembling a shrimp bent at the waist.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
A few punches later.
Three men were already on the ground.
One of them had a face filled with terror, “We’re from the Street Enforcement Council, you dare to attack us, that’s illegal!”
Pei Jinye ignored him and instead looked coldly at the bruised and swollen Third Brother.
“Kneel and talk.”
Third Brother shakily knelt down.
The subordinates curled up on the ground clutching their stomachs were suddenly stunned, their jaws dropping.
“Third, Third Brother!!!”
“Who sent you?”
Third Brother begged for mercy between sobs and snotty tears.
Awakener!
The opponent was actually an Awakener!
If he had known this, he wouldn’t dare to offend an Awakener even if it meant death!
Right now, he loathed Zhou Dahai to his core.
He hurriedly said, “It was Zhou Dahai, the vendor at Stall 36 next door. He was jealous of your family’s business, thinking your business was stealing his clients, so he gave me ten thousand yuan to punish your family.”
“Where’s the money?” Pei Jinye asked indifferently.
“Spent it all….” Third Brother stuttered, visibly afraid.
Pei Jinye looked at him expressionlessly, “I don’t want to make it hard for you, just do to them what you did to my family, but double.”
“Yes… I promise, I swear I’ll destroy their family!” Third Brother knelt on the ground, groveling.
Pei Jinye frowned, feeling this was all so troublesome—his family was just trying to make a simple living and even that could trigger jealousy.
Impatiently, he delivered a kick, “You know what to say when you go out, don’t you? I don’t need to teach you that, right?”
“Got it, got it, you can relax.”
Pei Jinye turned around, letting out a sigh, “I originally wanted to coexist peacefully with you as an ordinary person, but it’s a pity you didn’t value that. I beat you up; you won’t hold a grudge against me for that, right? I’ve heard you’re quite reasonable.”
Third Brother quickly prostrated on the ground, crying and pleading, “Don’t worry, I won’t say anything, I swear….”
His predecessor had provoked an Awakener and was beaten to death, yet the Awakener got off scot-free. Instead, all of his predecessor’s wrongdoings were exposed. He didn’t even receive benefits for dying in the line of duty and was instead labeled a criminal.
Thinking of this, Third Brother dared not offend Pei Jinye. He silently cursed Zhou Dahai countless times in his heart, but his face showed only caution and fear of inadvertently provoking the formidable person before him.
Recalling the terrifying experience he had just gone through… If there was a hell on this earth, then this formidable individual before him had just given him a tour of it.
He swore he never wanted to experience it again in his life.
Pei Jinye returned to the stall with a look of naive innocence.
“All sorted.”
“How did you sort it?” Father Pei asked hesitantly.
Pei Jinye scratched his head, embarrassed, “Our principal’s surname is Wang, he used to supervise their boss, I scared them with Principal Wang, and they didn’t dare to be arrogant….”
“But what if Principal Wang finds out one day….”
Pei Jinye waved his hand, “He wouldn’t care about these things. Even if he found out, he would be glad I used his name more often; he’s now counting on me to cultivate well and add glory to No. 2 High School.”
It wasn’t long before.
The Street Enforcement Council’s vehicles arrived.
Father Pei thought they were coming for revenge and panickedly looked for a kitchen knife.
But, just ten meters away at Stall 36, Zhou Dahai and the members of the Street Enforcement Council got into an argument and after a massive uproar, he was beaten up and hauled away.
Third Brother looked at the onlookers with an air of seriousness, “I want to emphasize again, food safety violations will be punished without exception; no one should take their chances!”
Father Pei and Mother Pei exchanged puzzled looks.
“It was Zhou Dahai, right?”
“Yes, it’s him, this nuisance has finally been taken away.”
Pei Jinye sat in a chair to the side, watching with interest as Third Brother put on a pompous act.
He never understood why everyone was so afraid of Transcendents, but now he got it.
No matter how strong a regular person is, they wouldn’t dare to offend a Transcendent recklessly because no one wants to shorten their life.
This Sun San, even if he wanted to take revenge and find his superiors, his superiors would also have to weigh the consequences of offending a Transcendent.
He didn’t mind that his approach this time was somewhat crude, as long as it was effective.
Dealing with an ordinary person, outright killing would bring about a lot of trouble.
Pei Jinye watched as the other party looked at him with a cautiously hopeful gaze, his own expression unfazed.
Unconsciously, he too had become someone capable of intimidation…
