Chapter 35

When Chen Hansheng heard that Zhu Chenglong had hit Zhou Xiao, he knew that the situation was not good.

“Where are the two of them now?” asked Chen Hansheng as he changed his clothes.

“Zhou Xiao’s dorm.”

The second- and third-year dorms were just next door. When Chen Hansheng ran over, Zhou Xiao’s dorm was already crowded with many people including the uniformed school security guards.

What was worse was the professors of both Zhuo Xiao and Zhu Chenglong were also there.

‘What a f*cking mess!’

Chen Hansheng could not help but curse in his heart. He finally understood why Zhu Chenglong had asked those questions when they were drinking that night.

He wanted to beat up Zhou Xiao. Firstly, it was to help Chen Hansheng get his revenge. Secondly, it was to embarrass Zhou Xiao so that he did not have the face to continue as the external relations committee deputy officer. However, he did not expect that his actions would bring the school security guards and professors over.

Zhou Xiao’s room was in a mess. The objects in his room were scattered everywhere as he sat on his bed, covering his face. Zhu Chenglong’s face was also swollen as he was being held down by security.

Chen Hansheng heaved a sigh of relief internally when he noticed that no blood had been spilled.

Zhou Xiao saw Chen Hansheng and his eyes started to fill with resentment.

But Chen Hansheng did not take it to heart. Instead, he decided to greet his professor. “Professor Guo.”

Guo Zhongyun was talking to Zhou Xiao’s professor when he saw Chen Hansheng coming over. Professor Guo immediately said, “I was just about to look for you. I don’t want to get involved in the students’ union matters so I’ll just ask you this. Do you know anything about this?”

It was rare for Professor Guo to be so serious.

Chen Hansheng immediately realized that Zhou Xiao had put the blame on him, or at least mentioned his name. It was very likely Zhou Xiao claimed that Zhu Chenglong had acted under Chen Hansheng’s instigation.

However, Chen Hansheng knew that he could not simply state the facts to resolve the situation. He would be able to get away with it if he simply claimed innocence, but then all the blame would fall on Zhu Chenglong.

“Tell me.” Zhou Xiao’s counselor also wanted to know.

Zhu Chenglong was not a coward. He would not let Chen Hansheng take responsibility for what he had done. Just as he was about to claim the blame, Chen Hansheng immediately glared at him before saying, “Yes, I am involved.”

Bang!

Guo Zhongyun slammed the table hard. “Chen Hansheng, you’re the class president and yet you’ve gotten involved in a fight. I need a letter of explanation and apology from you.”

Chen Hansheng nodded silently. “I’ll write it tonight.”

“No, write it now,” said Guo Zhongyun loudly.

Chen Hansheng looked at Guo Zhongyun. He wrote the letter on the spot and handed it over. It turned out that Professor Guo intended to quell this storm as soon as possible.

Zhu Chenglong also wrote his and handed it over.

Zhou Xiao also noticed that no blood had been spilled and he knew that there was a possibility that the matter would be covered up. If he joined in and shared the burden, the actions to be taken on Zhu Chenglong would not be so great.

At this time, the nurse from the school’s infirmary also came over. She checked the wounds on Zhou Xiao and Zhu Chenglong and shook her head. “It’s nothing serious. You don’t even need to take anti-inflammatory drugs.”

‘Damn it, did that bastard Zhou Xiao plan to have the university president over as well?’ thought Chen Hansheng. He immediately figured out what Zhou Xiao was up to – he was deliberately making a mountain out of a molehill.

“Now that you’ve written your letters, apologize to Zhou Xiao. Once the committee has reviewed your letters, we will call you in to hand you your punishment,” said Guo Zhongyun.

Chen Hansheng turned gloomy and Zhu Chenglong felt uneasy. He did not expect the matter to become so big. Fights in high school were usually fiercer than this, but they never had to deal with it so seriously.

Zhu Chenglong was frightened by Guo Zhongyun’s furious expression. He did not realize that his professor was intentionally being all talk but no walk.
