Fate Trading System – Chapter 317

Plan A

Running with the Ball 21

During the morning reading¹ session the next day, Feng Linhan began his performance.

“I really don’t know where that fake photo came from. I didn’t expect our class to have such a capable person.”

“Perhaps you are all mocking me in your hearts again. I will go online to find a PS master² to authenticate this photo.”

“I don’t know who did it. I don’t even recognize the lady in the photo who showed a small part of her face.”

“That’s all. You all should study hard. Keep your minds on your studies.”

After Feng Linhan finished speaking, he didn’t care about the students’ reactions. With the appearance of a middle-aged man who was extremely angry and somewhat at a loss, his body swayed a little as he walked outside.

He was standing there, about to go to the office to deal with the problem of that pair of students in a puppy love relationship. He had said the day before yesterday to have the parents come tomorrow, but in the end, neither parent came. He was not in the mood to make a phone call at that time. Today, those two parents had actually come and were currently sitting in the office, with their children following behind them.

“You two, go back and study first.”

Feng Linhan told the two students to go back. He sat down in his own seat and gestured for the two sets of parents to sit down.

“Come, sit.”

Feng Linhan forced himself to pull himself together. On the female student’s side, both her mother and father had come. On the male student’s side, only his mother had come.

“What are your thoughts on this matter?”

“Our child has always been very well-behaved, and her grades are good. She said it was that boy who approached her first. Some parents, ah, should really discipline their own children properly. Not learning good things at such a young age.”

“Yo, tsk, your child is good, your family is the most outstanding, but isn’t she also not the least bit reserved? Didn’t she also agree when someone confessed? What’s with pretending to be a chaste and virtuous woman? Looking down on others, are you? If you have the guts, tell your good daughter not to agree, ah. Tell her not to follow my son to the sports field to kiss, ah.”

The mother on the male student’s side was also a formidable fighter. Although she didn’t use a single swear word, her sarcasm was perfectly on point.

Feng Linhan actually had a huge headache when encountering sharp-tongued³ parents who were max-level at provoking others with their words, like the male student’s parent, and also those who had an extremely good self-perception, thinking their child was the most well-behaved baby in the world, and that if anything happened, it was because someone else had led them astray, like the female student’s parent.

“Both parents, please calm down a little. Let’s discuss this issue amicably. Puppy love is a widespread phenomenon among adolescents. After all, it is the period of youthful budding. However, being in a relationship can easily distract students, making it difficult for them to focus their minds on their studies.”

“My daughter said she will listen to us.”

“Right, break up. I don’t want my son’s girlfriend to have a mother like that, either. The way you talk is truly awful.”

“What do you mean, who talks awfully? Your son not learning good things is a case of the upper beam is not straight, so the lower beam is crooked⁴, dad.”

“Oh ho, this has escalated to a personal attack on me?”

Just as the two were about to start arguing, the female student’s father also chimed in to support his wife. The scene was very out of control.

“Both parents, please calm down first. Let’s talk this over properly.”

“Talk what over properly? You’re the one who called us here. Whatever you want, hurry up.”

The male student’s mother had a dark look on her face, very impatient.

“Breaking up is a certainty. I hope both sets of parents can keep a good eye on their own children. Of course, a self-criticism⁵ is also unavoidable, as is a demerit.”

“On what grounds? You want our daughter to write a self-criticism and get a demerit? What right do you, a homeroom teacher who cheats and keeps a little three, have to lecture my daughter?”

As the shrill female voice came out, the air fell silent.

The parent who had spoken also had an ugly expression on her face, but she still held her neck high.

“What kind of mother raises what kind of child. I’m now a little grateful to you, Teacher, for catching them in their puppy love. I will have my son write the self-criticism, and I will absolutely make him break up, so he can find someone better next time. Although your private life, Teacher, may be a bit messy, and I truly dislike this point, my son was in the wrong first, after all. We should address the matter at hand; one thing is one thing. I will manage him well. I hope, Teacher, that you can pay attention to your private life. For a teacher to have such conduct is very disgraceful.”

After the boy’s parent finished speaking, she picked up her bag and stood up. She glanced at the girl’s mother with a disdainful look and walked towards the door.

What remained were the cold-faced Feng Linhan and the girl’s parents.

“I don’t know who is spreading rumors. Regardless of my situation, your daughter’s conduct indeed has problems. This time, it’s a major demerit and a self-criticism of over one thousand characters for one month. Please go back.”

Feng Linhan’s tone was stiff. The thing he worried about most had indeed happened.

The rumors in the school were spreading wildly. Feng Linhan’s face no longer had its usual pleasantness like bathing in the spring breeze; instead, it was gloomy, letting anyone who saw him know that he was not well.

He Qin’s side was also not well.

When she went out today, she discovered that the tire of her electric scooter⁶ was flat. It was clearly fine yesterday. She didn’t know who did it, to be so wicked.

She decided to walk to the flower shop. Anyway, the shop wasn’t particularly far from her home. Even though it would take half an hour to walk, she would just treat it as a stroll.

When she came home from the flower shop in the evening, she also chose to walk back. There was no need to spend money.

But halfway there, her mouth was suddenly covered and she was dragged into a small alley. There was hardly anyone around at this time. She couldn’t even scream before her mouth was stuffed with something. Next, a bag was put over her head, making her unable to see anything. Her hands and feet were also tied, making it impossible to struggle.

Her heart went cold. At the same time, she curled up her body, not knowing if this was a robbery. If it was rape… He Qin’s body started to jerk, hoping she could attract the attention of people outside.

But before she could struggle for long, she was punched in the face.

Wen Linlang sneered coldly but did not make a sound.

Her strikes were measured. Slapping, punching, kicking He Qin’s limbs, stomping on her arms—enough to make a delicate woman like He Qin lose her strength and feel pain, but her internal organs would not be harmed.

Wen Linlang did not want to expose herself. With a smile on her face, she fiercely vented her anger. Be a little three! Make someone be a little three! I’ll teach you to shamelessly seduce others!

When she determined it was about enough, Wen Linlang opened He Qin’s bag. She was wearing gloves on her hands, unafraid of revealing anything.

She planned to disguise this as a robbery case, so she took the less than two hundred in cash from He Qin’s wallet.

Wen Linlang gave a look to the underling she had brought to help her, and held up the wallet in her hand.

That underling immediately understood and spat softly.

“Stinking woman, dressed so well, but only has this little bit of damn money. Trying to dismiss a beggar, are you? Pah.”

Wen Linlang nodded, picked up He Qin’s phone, and smashed it hard on the ground. Seeing the phone’s miserable state, she was very satisfied. She then went back and had the underling slap He Qin again, untied He Qin’s hands, and then leisurely left.

Dajie transferred so much money over the years, a lot of it was used to buy things for Feng Linhan. Feng Linhan must have also given this fox spirit a lot. Hmph, shameless thing.

He Qin endured the pain and sat up from the ground. She took off the bag on her head and the rag in her mouth, untied the rope on her feet, and with a black and blue face, began to cry her heart out in grievance.

Fortunately, the robber hadn’t hit her stomach. But why was she so unlucky?

He Qin touched her face, feeling a heart-piercing pain. She gritted her teeth, stood up from the ground, picked up her shattered phone and the open bag on the ground, and limped away from here.

When she got home, she looked at herself in the mirror, and her heart grew even more pained.

That disheveled, face-swollen, terrifyingly ugly person in the mirror, how could that be her?

He Qin was scared and aggrieved. She used the landline to call Feng Linhan’s phone.

“Linhan, I was just robbed on the road…”

While He Qin cried on her end, Feng Linhan was anxious in his heart. He hurriedly comforted her, but he couldn’t go out to see He Qin. He could only ask about her situation from his end, his heart aching.

Feng Linhan originally wanted to video call He Qin, but since He Qin’s phone was smashed, that was no longer possible.

He Qin cried for a long time. After receiving a heap of comfort and sweet nothings, she calmed down slightly.

“It’s actually good that we don’t have contact now, it saves you from feeling sad seeing me like this. I will go see a doctor properly by myself.”

“Then after seeing the doctor tomorrow, rest well.”

“I’ll let the people at the flower shop see me, that way that person won’t be able to photoshop our pictures anymore. After all, my face is like this now.”

“That’s right! Qinqin! You’re still the smart one.”

While the scum and the little three were pouring their hearts out over here, Wen Linlang was also gleeful over there.

Sitting in the car, she happily reported the news to Bai Jianglan, telling her that she had handled everything.

“Good, well done. Is there anything you want recently?”

“Wow, your little cutie wants a little pocket money.”

“I’ll transfer it to you. Also, you are not my little cutie.”

Bai Jianglan very heartlessly rejected Wen Linlang’s self-proclaimed title. Her eyes fell on Su Xin. She only had one little cutie, and that was the person sitting on the bed.

The world’s super-duper number one cutest.

“Cousin, do you have to be so heart-stabbing⁷? Just give me a token amount of pocket money, I’m going to go have some fun.”

“Mm-hm.”

“By the way, Cousin, how are things between you and my Dajie?”

“What things?”

“You know, that thing.”

“Which thing?”

“Tsk, so annoying. You clearly know but still want me to say it out loud.”

“Goodbye.”

Bai Jianglan very heartlessly hung up the phone, then went to transfer pocket money to Wen Linlang.

Wen Linlang was just joking around, but she was still gleeful when she saw the pocket money.

“Are you short on money?”

Xu Yiman had been waiting for her in the car the whole time and only spoke now.

“Nah, not short on money.”

“Then I’ll give you pocket money.”

“Ah? No need. I’m really not short on money.”

“But I want you to become my little cutie.”

Wen Linlang didn’t know why her old face turned red. She coughed lightly a couple of times.

“No more flirting, ah. Drive your car.”

Su Xin naturally knew what had happened. She also knew everything else clearly.

“You had Linlang teach He Qin a lesson?”

“Mhm, you won’t blame me for acting on my own, will you?”

“How could I? Linlang actually really wanted to hit her, too. Me too.”

Su Xin hooked the corners of her lips, indicating that she was in a good mood.

“That’s good.”

Bai Jianglan breathed a sigh of relief.

Su Xin heard the broadcast of He Qin and Feng Linhan’s conversation and sneered inwardly.

Friend, do you know what is called despair?

Now, I’ll teach you how to be proper human beings.
