Chapter 66 - Pressuring
The story starts in Chapter 66 of "City's Best Divine Doctor": That night, after Ye Qiu beat up Zhang Wei and his four followers, some students... Donât miss it!
That night, after Ye Qiu beat up Zhang Wei and his four followers, some students spread the word.
But not many believed it, so the matter almost blew over.
No one expected that the rumors would resurface now, and it was clear that someone deliberately spread them.
âYe Qiu, what will you do if the school really expels you?â
Liu Lingxiu asked worriedly.
Now she noticed Ye Qiu had improved in many ways, especially in his academic performance.
If he got expelled, it would have a huge impact and even prevent him from taking the college entrance exam.
âLingshow, you donât need to worry.â
Ye Qiu instantly guessed that it must have been Zhang Wei and his gang who spread the rumors.
Returning to the classroom with Liu Lingxiu, Ye Qiu was called out by Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming.
As for that night, they didnât know what state Zhang Wei and Li Qiang were in after being beaten by Ye Qiu, nor how he forced Zhang Wei to eat shit.
But now, hearing that the school might expel Ye Qiu because of this, they naturally worried about him.
The three went up to the rooftop.
Li Shen took out a cigarette and handed it to Ye Qiu, who accepted it.
After lighting it for him, Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming sat down and lit their own cigarettes.
âItâs obvious that Zhang Weiâs group spread the rumors.
Ye Qiu, be careful.
Iâve heard that Zhang Weiâs family isnât simple.â
âHmph!
Do you think Iâm afraid of him?â
Ye Qiu scoffed coldly.
The three came down from the rooftop and returned to their seats.
When they saw Zhang Wei looking at them with a sinister smile, Ye Qiu knew he hadnât taught this kid a lesson that night.
âYe Qiu, donât worry.
Iâll protect you.
You definitely wonât be expelled.â
Su Luoluo said, looking at Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu, however, paid no attention and wasnât moved at all.
Whether it was Su Luoluo from Heaven or the current Su Luoluo, he felt she still owed him and hadnât repaid him yet.
That afternoon, Zhang Wei and Liu Ying had already told their homeroom teacher Li Molian about the incident.
But Zhang Wei also guessed that Li Molian definitely wouldnât expel Ye Qiu.
So, Zhang Wei had his mother inform his father, Zhang Dongliang, when she returned home.
Zhang Dongliang was the legal representative and owner of multiple companies and a four-star hotel in Jiangbei.
When he heard his son had been taught a lesson by Ye Qiu, he had long wanted to cause trouble for Ye Qiu.
Now, his son wanted the school to expel Ye Qiu, especially given Ye Qiuâs excellent grades, which would be the most crushing punishment.
Zhang Dongliang called the vice-principal of Jiangbei No.
3 Middle School to discuss it.
The vice-principal, who was attending a parent-teacher meeting, knew Ye Qiuâs recent exam scores were excellent.
He hadnât expected Zhang Dongliang to want Ye Qiu expelled over a fight with his son.
The vice-principal gave a perfunctory response over the phone, saying the school would hold a meeting to decide.
Zhang Dongliang not only called the vice-principal but also the heads of the Student Affairs Office, the deputy heads, the director of Academic Affairs, and others, demanding that the school expel Ye Qiu.
These school leaders all knew about the incident.
If Ye Qiu had been his former undistinguished self, they might have given Zhang Dongliang the face and expelled him without issue.
However, this time Ye Qiu ranked first in the city-wide exams, so expelling the schoolâs top student was out of the question.
Zhang Wei thought that once his father called the school, they would surely follow through.
But the school leaders only gave perfunctory responses and simply ignored it.
Ye Qiu sat there reading a novel until the evening study session ended.
Then he and Liu Lingxiu left the school, and he rode his bike to take Liu Lingxiu home before heading back to the congee shop.
It was eleven oâclock at night when he returned to the congee shop.
Chen Fang and Ye Xue told him to go rest early, and even Ye Weidong increasingly appreciated his sonâs efforts, telling him he didnât need to stay.
Ye Qiu went home, took a bath, and then continued cultivating the âPrimordial Five Emperors Techniqueâ by sitting cross-legged on his mat and absorbing the Moonlight Essence.
After absorbing the Moonlight Essence, it converted into True Qi, which was stored in Ye Qiuâs Dantian.
Once he accumulated enough, he would break through to the next level.
Ye Qiu felt he was close to breaking through to the Early Stage of the third level of Qi Refining, though he knew he still lacked a bit of Moonlight Essence.
At around seven the next morning, Ye Qiu got up, washed, and as usual, went to the congee shop to eat the beef noodles prepared by Ye Xue.
He then rode to Liu Lingxiuâs house, where she was waiting for him.
However, she felt it might be tiring for him to take her to and from school every day.
âYe Qiu, does this tire you out?
Maybe I should just take the bus from now on!â
âNo worries.
I still enjoy riding my bike.â
Previously, in the Imperial Physician Mansion in Heaven, Ye Qiu had lived a carefree life, never encountering the outside world.
Now, after cultivating the âPrimordial Five Emperors Technique,â his body grew increasingly strong, making bike riding a form of exercise that didnât bother him at all.
Ye Qiu rode to the school gate and walked inside with Liu Lingxiu.
As they entered, classmates looked at him with mixed feelings of jealousy, envy, smiles, and other complex emotions.
There was no doubt it was Zhang Weiâs doing again.
Last night, Zhang Dongliang had called the school leaders, who gave him a perfunctory response.
Upon hearing from Zhang Wei, Zhang Dongliang leveraged his status.
Now, the school leaders were under pressure!
At eight in the morning, the principal of Jiangbei No.
3 Middle School, two vice-principals, the head of Student Affairs, two deputy heads, an academic dean, and some other relevant school leaders, along with homeroom teacher Li Molian, all gathered in the meeting room to discuss how to handle the matter.
They were to vote on whether or not to expel Ye Qiu.
