Chapter 40: Taken Away

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Immediately, Li Chengqian and Liu Daqiang’s chat logs appeared on the big screen.

There were only three paragraphs in the chat history.

Liu Daqiang sent a text to Li Chengqian.

The first paragraph was a sentence, “Li Chengqian, let me show you a joke.”

The second message was a picture. This picture had already been spread to all the class chat groups and parents chat groups in Tianyi High School.

On the picture were words that were humiliating to Li Chengqian.

[I, Li Chengqian, scored 280 marks in the mock exam.

Although I sleep in class,

“However, I am confident that I can get into university.

The third paragraph was also a sentence, “Li Chengqian, you are a joke!”

Whether it was in the classroom or outside, everyone fell silent.

Especially when Liu Daqiang saw the chat records and pictures on the big screen, he felt extremely ashamed and wished he could find a hole to hide in.

At that time, he had used the photos and words to humiliate Li Chengqian. Now, when Li Chengqian showed the chat records, he felt that he was the joke.

The biggest joke of all.

“Liu Daqiang is too much!” Wang Jianjia was busy and hadn’t had a chance to look at her phone. This was the first time she saw this photo. When she saw the photo, she was shocked.

“Fortunately, Li Chengqian’s results are very good. Otherwise, this photo would have destroyed him.” Wang Jianjia was secretly shocked. She even looked at Liu Daqiang in shock. This photo was simply vicious.

Wang Lingbo didn’t say anything, but his brows were tightly knitted. If Wang Jianjia could see that this photo was vicious, so could he.

“Hehe… Liu Daqiang is thoroughly humiliated this time,” a classmate whispered.

There were also suppressed laughter.

After a short period of silence, a parent in the classroom also spoke, “I remember that this student only scored 450 marks in this exam. What right does he have to laugh at Li Chengqian, who scored 750 marks?”

“He said that Li Chengqian was a joke. I think he himself is a joke.”

“A student who doesn’t study hard and uses such crooked methods to mock others. No wonder his results are not good.”

The parents’ voices in the classroom reached Liu Daqiang’s ears, making him blush. He was extremely embarrassed and angry. He felt venom in his heart.

He grew up in a wealthy family.

His parents doted on him very much.

He had never been so embarrassed, nor had he ever suffered such a huge blow.

So, while Liu Daqiang was embarrassed, he was also infuriated. His eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Li Chengqian, wishing he could tear Li Chengqian apart.

“Li Chengqian, just you wait. You have put me on a spot, I will make you pay the price.” His heart was full of hatred, and he swore that he would teach Li Chengqian a lesson.

He was still unrepentant.

At this time, Li Chengqian spoke again.

“This is a recent message from our classmate, Liu Daqiang.”

“He said I was a joke.”

“I don’t know if I’m a joke for the time being, but I know that those who call me a joke are already a joke.”

Because of these words, Liu Daqiang was shooting daggers with his eyes. “Li Chengqian, just you wait. I will definitely make you pay the price. I will definitely find someone to teach you a good lesson, make you beg and ask me for mercy.”

“Alright, thank you everyone. I’ve said everything I wanted to say!” Li Chengqian walked down from the podium with a relaxed expression.

At this moment, two police officers with sharp eyes walked over.

“Is there a student named Li Chengqian in your class?” After the two of them showed their IDs, they asked the students standing around.

“Hello, police officers. I am the principal of the school. May I ask why you are looking for Li Chengqian?” Lin Lingbo quickly walked over and asked politely.

‘”A student of your school, Li Chengqian, called the police and said that someone was spreading rumors and slandering him. We have come to investigate.” Among the two, the slightly older one was called Wang Limin. He quickly explained the situation.

“By the way, Li Chengqian called the police and said that the suspect is Liu Daqiang from the same class. See if he’s here? If he is, call him out and let us investigate the situation,” Wang Limin continued.

Liu Daqiang who was standing close by, was still plotting his revenge on Li Chengqian. When he saw the two police officers coming over, especially when he heard Wang Limin’s question, he was scared out of his wits and broke out in cold sweat.

Liu Daqiang almost burst into tears. “Li Chengqian actually called the police. How could he do this?”

In the classroom, hearing Wang Limin mention Liu Daqiang’s name, the chubby Liu Wendao, who had a big belly, looked upset. Then, he quickly stood up and walked over to Wang Limin with an apologetic smile.

“It’s been hard on the two police officers. Come, have a cigarette first.” He subserviently offered cigarettes to the police officers.

“Thank you. We don’t smoke. Principal Wang, who is he?” Wang Limin refused without hesitation and looked at Wang Lingbo.

Wang Lingbo smiled awkwardly. He didn’t know who this person was, but since he came from Grade 12 Class 5, Wang Jianjia definitely knew. He turned and looked at Wang Jianjia.

Wang Jianjia was about to speak when Liu Wendao spoke first with an apologetic smile.

“Hello, officers. I’m Liu Daqiang’s parent.”

As Liu Wendao spoke, he secretly regretted in his heart, “If I had known that Li Chengqian was so ruthless, I would have dealt with the issue sooner when Daqiang came to me.

He had wanted to sit on the issue and ask the dean to help suppress it. At the appropriate juncture, he would appear and give him some money, and his matter would be over.

In the past, when he owed the wages of the migrant workers, this was how he dealt with them. He would simply use delay tactics!

When it was time for the new year, because the migrant workers had to go home, a small portion of the wages would be enough to send the workers packing.

They would even be grateful to him when they left!

He felt that he could deal with Li Chengqian using the same tactic.

Unfortunately, he was wrong on two counts.

Firstly, Li Chengqian was not a poor student that he could casually send packing. Instead, he scored full marks and was the number one in the entire province!

Secondly, Li Chengqian was much more decisive than he had imagined. He really called the police when he said he would.

“That’s good too. I was just about to inform you to come. It’s best if you’re here. Call your child and wait by the side!” Wang Limin’s tone instantly became stern.

Li Chengqian also stepped forward and identified himself.

The principal is also here. Tell us what happened.” Wang Limin looked at Li Chengqian and Liu Daqiang and began to ask questions.

Liu Daqiang was so frightened that his face turned pale and his body trembled. He couldn’t say a word.

“Officer, let me explain…” Liu Wendao didn’t dare to admit what Li Chengqian said. He immediately opened his mouth, wanting to continue the conversation.

“I didn’t ask you to speak. Just stand aside quietly and watch.” Wang Limin’s voice was extremely stern.

“It’s like this…” Li Chengqian told him everything that happened in detail, then showed the photo on his phone to the police.

Because the facts were clear, it was easy to obtain evidence. Not long after, Liu Daqiang was taken away with a terrified expression.

Liu Wendao glared at Li Chengqian and said, “Just you wait.”

Then, he left in a hurry.

After Liu Daqiang was brought away, the way everyone looked at Li Chengqian became different.

Other than envy, there was also reverence.

After the parent-teacher meeting ended, Li Chengqian and his mother walked out of the classroom, preparing to go home.

“Chen Li, wait. Let’s go together.” There was no longer any arrogance in Huang Jingjing’s voice.

“Li Chengqian, I want to have a good talk with you.” Jian Qingli also walked out. She whispered to Li Chengqian in a tone she had never used before.
