After returning to the dormitory, Yang Ming studied the bound ancient book for a while. He couldn’t understand much, so he simply placed the book under the pillow. He needed to visit the bookstore to buy a dictionary for classical Chinese at some point, otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to understand it.

At noon, Yang Ming and Chen Mengyan had lunch together. He told her that he had gotten the movie tickets.

“Zhang Bing and Tian Donghua are going too. There are three couple seat tickets. Do you have any objections?” Yang Ming asked.

“I object? Why should I object? I certainly won’t object. It’s even better with more people.” Chen Mengyan said, “Yes, is your junior high school classmate going?”

“Do you mean Zhou Jiajia?” Yang Ming sweated. It seemed that Chen Mengyan was still hostile to her!

“En, that’s her. Yang Ming, you aren’t allowed to be too close to her in the future…” Chen Mengyan nodded and whispered.

“Why?” Yang Ming felt a bit strange.

“I think she seems to like you…” Chen Mengyan didn’t know why there was such an idea. Zhou Jiajia was hiding it very well that day. But it may be because a woman’s sixth sense made Chen Mengyan feel threatened.

“She likes me? What kind of joke is this!” Yang Ming said with a smile, “You can rest assured. Your husband isn’t that popular. No one pursued me in the three years of being in senior high school. You still don’t understand?”

“I don’t care. You will stay away from her in the future.” Chen Mengyan said.

“Okay, I know.” Yang Ming nodded after listening. He didn’t take it seriously. It was because he felt that he wouldn’t like Zhou Jiajia at all, so Chen Mengyan’s worry was completely unnecessary.

Therefore, in the afternoon, Yang Ming still sat with Zhou Jiajia. He had no choice. Who asked him to sit where he sat before? Zhou Jiajia reserved a seat for him every day. Even if Yang Ming didn’t like Zhou Jiajia, he couldn’t not give face to her to that extent. Besides, there wasn’t much empty space in the classroom.

However, Wang Zhitao surprisingly didn’t ask Yang Ming to change his seat today. Instead, he was sitting in front and reading a book quietly.

In the evening, Yang Ming came to Wu Zhongjie’s home as appointed. Today, this kid was surprisingly well-behaved. When Yang Ming knocked on the door, he asked who it was, then he opened the door on his own initiative. However, Yang Ming found out about something, Why was there a bruise on his face?

“What happened to your face? Were you beaten up by someone?” Yang Ming asked.

“Xuu… Keep it low. Don’t let my mom hear it!” Wu Zhongjie quickly closed the door and made a silent gesture.

“What? Don’t you dare to talk to your family about it?” Yang Ming smiled and said, “Who bullied you?”

“I told my mother that I slipped and fell. Don’t tell her anything else!” Wu Zhongjie pleaded.

“Hmph, slipped and fell? Your mother really trusted you? This was obviously a punch from someone!” Yang Ming said with a cold hmph.

“It doesn’t matter. I don’t want my mother to worry.” Wu Zhongjie said.

“I really didn’t see it. I thought you were quite disobedient!” Yang Ming sneered.

“Brother Yang, stop mocking me. I’m really fine. I will recover by tomorrow.” Wu Zhongjie said.

“I don’t care, little kid. You don’t want to study. Instead, you always get involved in fighting!” Yang Ming was giving Wu Zhongjie a lecture but he thought, Wasn’t I like him during those years?

“Right, Brother Yang. I’ll ask you one thing. Can you promise me?” Wu Zhongjie suddenly asked.

“What is it? If you don’t say it, how can I promise you?” Yang Ming said as he glared at him.

“That… Brother Yang, can you pretend to be my big brother tomorrow and go to school for one class? Our teacher is looking for parents…” Wu Zhongjie whispered.

“F*ck, looking for caretakers, you want me to pretend to be one?” Yang Ming stared at Wu Zhongjie. “Because of what? Fighting with classmates?”

“Brother Yang, can you stop scolding me?” Wu Zhongjie asked in a jitter.

“Let’s talk about it.” Yang Ming waved and said, “I’m too tired to scold you.”

“I wrote a note to a female classmate… It was intercepted by my class monitor then he reported it to the teacher. I beat him up after school ended.” Wu Zhongjie said.

“Wrote a note to a female classmate? Was it a love letter?” Yang Ming snorted. “I didn’t really know that you would fall in love at such an early age! However, is it you who beat him up? You seem to be the one who got beaten!”

“F*ck! An *sshole like him, I finished him in two punches!” Wu Zhongjie said, “He had a big brother in as a senior. He called his big brother, and the two of them fought with me. I still won!”

“I don’t understand then. Why does the teacher want to see your parents?” Yang Ming asked.

“The class monitor reported to the teacher that I beat him.” Wu Zhongjie said.

“Oh? That’s the case. Do you know why he told the teacher?” Yang Ming asked.

“I didn’t know. He needs a smack?” Wu Zhongjie said casually.

Yang Ming shook his head, “It’s not that he needs a smack. It’s just that you didn’t smash him enough. When you can smack him until he wouldn’t dare to report to the teacher then you will win.”

Wu Zhongjie nodded thoughtfully and said three words after a long time, “That makes sense!”

“Okay, I can do it tomorrow, but I hope it will be the last time.” Yang Ming promised, “Oh yeah, looking at your family, is your dad a powerful person?”

“En, my dad is an engineer. Why?” Wu Zhongjie asked.

“That’s good. Then you shouldn’t be afraid that your class monitor would frame you later!” Yang Ming said. He didn’t want Wu Zhongjie to experience what Wang Zhitao did to him.

“Frame me? Right, Brother Yang, I heard that my class monitor knew a few people from the underworld. If they find someone to beat me up, what should I do?” Wu Zhongjie asked.

“Beat you? You won’t strike back?” Yang Ming said disdainfully, “Aren’t you a Taekwondo black belt?”

Yang Ming gained his power through his strength.

“I have a black belt for Taekwondo, but I can’t fight a crowd!” Wu Zhongjie said with a bitter face.

“Then you will endure it. They can’t really kill you, can they? When they leave, you will beat your class monitor again until he won’t dare to ask for help from someone![1]” Yang Ming said.

“En? This is a good idea!” Wu Zhongjie nodded in surprise.

Wu Zhongjie thought about how to teach his class monitor a lesson tomorrow, so he definitely couldn’t focus on studying. Yang Ming taught him a few questions but seeing that he was absent-minded, Yang Ming had to give up. He made an appointment with Wu Zhongjie to go to school tomorrow. After that, he left Wu Zhongjie’s home.

Yang Ming went directly to Liu Weishan’s home. Because the tutoring ended earlier today, by the time Yang Ming arrived, Liu Weishan just started their dinner. Yang Ming could eat together with them.

After dinner, Liu Weishan called Yang Ming to the study. Then he picked up a piece of fine writing paper from the desk and handed it to Yang Ming.

Yang Ming felt a bit confused. He opened the paper and saw the three words “Liu Weishan” on it.

“This is?” Yang Ming inexplicably asked Liu Weishan, “Godfather, isn’t this your name?”

“Yes, it’s my name. Aren’t you going to open a jewelry company?” Liu Weishan explained with a smile, “I have considered it for a long time. I feel that there are too many local jewelry companies. If you want to make some achievements, it’s not easy! So you need to have a surprise move!”

“Surprise move?” Yang Ming hesitated for a moment then he seemed to have sorted it out. “Godfather, do you mean the jewelry company’s name is called… Liu Weishan?”

“Not bad!” Liu Weishan nodded. “I think the jewelry company you open should focus on the rich customers. Because so many jewelry companies focus their business on the common public, it’s hard to stand out from the crowd. Moreover, the key point is that my name is still very popular in upper-class society, so you don’t need to publicize this jewelry company. As long as things are good, you won’t be bothered about having a lack of customers.”

“Godfather, what you mean is, we only do exquisite products which are luxury goods?” Yang Ming understood Liu Weishan’s meaning.

“Yes, things are expensive because of their exquisiteness. Why do many handicraft workshops become world famous brands, but in contrast, those modern big factories are instead not that famous?” Liu Weishan said, “This is because the production of hand workshops is low. The product is unique, but this kind of thing is sought after by the rich!”

“But, godfather, you are so old, yet you have to work for me…” Yang Ming frowned and said, “I don’t feel good about this!”

“Why should I personally work for you? My name is just a brand, a name. Of course, your company has to hire some powerful designers, but I can be your consultant.” Liu Weishan said, “Are you okay with this?”

Yang Ming couldn’t help but feel a bit happy. All these times, Yang Ming had been worrying about the company’s model. Today, Yang Ming had a feeling of relief after listening to Liu Weishan’s words.
